Vacation is next week and I am keeping this week as light as possible. No complicated dinners, no long ingredient lists, nothing that requires a lot of cleanup. These five dinners are all fast, easy, and use ingredients that overlap so your grocery list stays short. One lasagna, two salads, one sheet pan, and one skillet enchilada. That is the whole week!

On YouTube this week I published my 5 ingredient marinade video and a full gluten free grocery haul with exact brands!

This is what I prepped Fletcher this week and our pool day snacks!

  • 5 easy dinner recipes (all are gluten free with dairy free suggestions!)

  • how to save time and money with each recipe

  • how to serve these recipes to your WHOLE family, including toddlers


How to Save Money AND Time this Week

  • Chicken shows up in four out of five dinners this week. Buy one bulk pack and you are covered for Nights 2, 3, 4, and 5.

  • Use a Costco rotisserie for Nights 3 and 5 to skip cooking entirely on those nights.

  • The two pasta salads are both best made ahead of time so prep them earlier in the day or even the night before — dinner is already done when you need it.

  • The bolognese lasagna serves four so you will have lunch covered the next day with zero extra effort!


Making Your Week Easier: What Dinner to Double

  • The bolognese lasagna is your best double batch this week. Assemble two sheet pans at once, bake one tonight, and freeze the second for when you get back from vacation.

  • The buffalo chicken enchiladas also freeze beautifully — make a double batch and pop half in the freezer so vacation week recovery dinners are already handled!
