Weekly Dinner Meal Plan: July 23 – 27
A 5 night, Weekly Dinner Meal Plan that’s easy, seasonal, and healthy. Plus, a weekly treat you won’t want to miss.
We’re seeing the backside of July this week — which means summer produce is at its best! We’re taking advantage of all those goodies in this week’s dinners.
Shortcuts are what summer cooking is all about. This week, I’m buying a rotisserie chicken that will serve for 2 meals. First for Monday’s Vietnamese Style Chicken and Noodle Salad and Friday’s BBQ Chicken Pizza. For Monday, I’ll be swapping the marinade for a favorite store-bought, making Monday’s dinner a breeze.
Plus, I’m making my all-time, it isn’t summer without it, Corn Chowder.
And speaking of easy, fresh, and seasonal — this week’s treat features blueberries, a microwave… and 2 minutes.
Stay cool this third week of July!
Have a great summer week!

Tuesday: Farmers’ Market Corn Chowder

Monday: Vietnamese-Style Chicken & Noodle Salad
To make this salad a no-cook dinner: Pick up a bottle of your favorite marinade or sauce and a rotisserie chicken from the market. Then all that’s left is some chopping and assembling.
“This [Vietnamese-Style Chicken & Noodle Salad] starts with lemongrass- and ginger-marinated chicken that’s tossed with a tangle of rice noodles, a mess of crunchy vegetables and herbs, and an umami-rich dressing. Whip it up at the end of the day, or prep it during your weekend meal prep and enjoy it hot or cold for dinner.”

Farmers’ Market Corn Chowder. It’s not summer without it. Loaded with corn, thick with chunks of potato, celery, and carrots, flavored with smoked bacon, corn chowder is summer cooking at its best. And best of all, it’s weeknight perfect.

Wednesday: Steamed Foil Packet Cod with Greens
Because as always, Wednesdays are busy for us. These Steamed Foil Packet Cod with Greens is an all-star, quick cook meal, that’s also healthy. By quick, I mean, perhaps 10 minutes, from start to finish.

Friday: BBQ Chicken Pizza
“Store-bought pizza dough, leftover chicken, BBQ sauce … check, check, check! This weeknight pizza couldn’t be easier. It’s savory, sweet, tangy, and it only takes 15 minutes of oven time. Who could ask for anything more?” — especially on a summer Friday night?
