Easy Weekly Meals Your Family Will Love – Week #9

family sitting down for dinner

I love the summer. But I don’t want huge dinners that take forever to make in a hot kitchen. That’s why this week I included skewers on the grill again plus two breakfasts for dinner, one is sweet while the other is savory. I hope you enjoy these recipes.

Monday – Meatless Monday

   
bowl of tortellini alfredo

Tortellini Alfredo, Broccoli, and Italian Bread

   

I love tortellini, I love alfredo sauce, this recipe is a winner. Tortellini alfredo is delicious and great comfort food.

   

Tuesday – Slow Cooker Recipe

   
bowl of cherry pie oatmeal with whipped cream on top
The whipped cream was leftover from the cream puffs, couldn’t let it go to waste.

Cherry Pie Oatmeal and Breakfast Sausage

   

Honestly, I made this recipe because I had a can of cherry pie filling in my pantry that was about to expire but we will definitely be making it again! This is the first dinner my three-year-old (who fights eating almost any dinner) had three helpings. Thumbs up for cherry pie oatmeal!!

Please note, I did not include the walnuts but if you would like them make sure to add the nuts onto the grocery list.

   

Wednesday – Breakfast for Dinner

   
Bacon Egg and Cheese Bread cooked in a bundt pan

Bacon Egg & Cheese Brunch Bread and Sliced Peaches

   

This recipe is a little putzy but parts or the whole thing can be made ahead of time. I love the flavor combo and this brunch bread would be great to make for company.

   

Thursday – Leftovers

   

Friday – Family Favorites

   
skewers of steak, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes

Asian Garlic Steak Skewers with Mushrooms & Cherry Tomatoes and Watermelon

   

It was Father’s Day so obviously I wanted a recipe that could be grilled and would please my husband. I don’t particularly enjoy steak but these Asian garlic steak skewers were very yummy. The marinade is spot on.

Please note I did substitute ground ginger for the fresh ginger on the grocery list.

   

Saturday – Eat Out or Order In

   

Sunday – Multicultural Night

   
plate of chicken fried rice and an egg roll

Chicken Fried Rice and Egg Rolls

   

I know chicken fried rice isn’t authentic but I’m still using it for multicultural night. Chicken fried rice is just a great staple recipe to pull out any time you have extra chicken, rice, and easy veggies to throw in.

   

Weekly Dessert

   
finished cream puffs on wire cooling rack

Cream Puffs

   

It was about time I created another recipe! I tried a recipe for cream puffs the other week and it was a miserable failure so I decided to make my own. Here is my recipe for cream puffs. The shell is very hardy so it can hold any type of filling though I went with the classic whipped cream this time.
