A Week of Easy Dinner Ideas ๐๐๐ฟ
|
Hey, friend! Good morning, and happy Sunday! This week we welcomed spring with grilled meals, salads, an easy cake, and lots of kids' sports. You can find all of the highlights from the past few days, along with each of our dinners, in todayโs roundup of Our Week in Meals. Stuck in a rut with your own dinners? Here are a few fresh ideas from the blog:โโ โUnstuffed Cabbage RollsโAll the cozy, comforting flavor of traditional cabbage rolls without any of the fuss! Ground beef, cabbage, and a rich tomato sauce simmer together in one skillet for a simple weeknight dinner that's ready with just 10 minutes of hands-on prep.
โVirginia Country Ham BiscuitsโSalty, smoky country ham tucked inside fluffy homemade buttermilk biscuits is a true Southern classic. They're perfect for breakfast, brunch, tailgates, holiday parties, or simple grab-and-go snacking.
โSausage and CabbageโA hearty one pot meal that's ready for the table in about 30 minutes! Browned smoked sausage is tossed with tender, buttery fried cabbage and simple seasonings for a comforting dinner that's full of flavor.
โSalisbury SteakโA from-scratch comfort food dinner that kids and adults love. Tender seasoned ground beef patties simmer in a rich mushroom and onion gravy, all made in one skillet. Serve it with mashed potatoes for a cozy, satisfying meal that's a major upgrade from the frozen TV dinner!
โCrispy Fried Fish SandwichesโGolden on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside! A simple cornmeal batter gives each cod fillet the perfect crunch, and a quick homemade tartar sauce pulls the whole sandwich together.
โCorned Beef HashโEverything the canned version wishes it could be: crispy, golden, and loaded with real chunks of tender corned beef and potatoes. The technique is simple once you know the secret to getting that perfect crust!
โChicken and Rice Casserole with Cream of Mushroom SoupโA simple, comforting dinner that uses rotisserie chicken and a few smart shortcuts for quick prep. Sautรฉed mushrooms, onions, and fresh herbs give it homemade flavor, and the buttery Ritz cracker and French fried onion topping takes it over the top.
โCreamed PeasโBright, sweet, and creamy, with a smooth buttery white sauce that comes together in just 10 minutes. With only 4 simple ingredients (plus salt and pepper), this classic side dish is spring comfort food at its best!
โDump-and-Bake Meatball CasseroleโYou don't even have to boil the pasta for this easy dump and bake meal. With just 5 simple ingredients and 10 minutes of prep, family-friendly weeknight dinners don't get much better!
โ20 Easter Brunch RecipesโEaster morning should feel relaxed, not rushed! These brunch recipes are built for exactly that, with overnight casseroles, easy egg dishes, sweet breakfast bakes, and simple extras that round out the spread.
And since it's Sunday, it's time for Our Week in Meals! You can check out all of the highlights from our week and hopefully find some new dinner inspiration for your own meal plan. The full details are on the blog today:โโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
