This week’s meal plan is warm and filling, and I’m sure it will be a hit with everyone in the family. My favorite is chicken parmesan because it only takes 20 minutes to prepare and the air fryer makes it a much healthier option without sacrificing flavor.
What’s for dinner?

Why should I plan my meals?
If you haven’t tried planning your meals ahead of time, this will change your life! Here’s why I swear by meal planning:
- Time savings: No more panicking at 4:00 pm for dinner. With a menu plan, you know exactly what’s on the menu, what you need, and how long it takes to cook.
- Saving money: Meal planning does wonders for your wallet. When you organize your weekly shopping list, you’ll easily spot opportunities to buy in bulk and creatively repurpose leftovers for future meals. You won’t be wandering aimlessly through the supermarket, not knowing what to buy.
- Goodbye takeaway: When your dinners are planned in advance and food is stocked, you are less likely to go to the drive-thru. Since you cook at home, that means more savings and healthier eating. Everyone wins!
Perfect pairings!
These accompaniments will be perfect with this week’s dinners. You’ll love having chips and guacamole with your fajita soup. To die for roasted potatoes in the air fryer with my Boursin pork chops.

Storing leftovers for meal planning
I only meal plan Monday through Friday because sometimes we have plans for the weekend, or I have leftovers we can have to finish the week! If you have leftovers, store them properly in an airtight container in your refrigerator.
