Week of December 9, 2024 - Weekly Meal Ideas


Welcome to December!  As the holidays are rapidly approaching, it always seems like there is so much to do.  Somehow, everything always comes together…eventually!  This is the time of year when easy meals can be huge stress-relievers and this week’s meal ideas can help do just that!

The Fire-Roasted Sloppy Joes come together SO quick and easy, and even those picky eaters will love them!  And the Mediterranean Inspired Pork Tenderloin will also be a hit with the whole family.  It would go great with the creamy, dreamy Roasted Garlic White Bean Hummus or the flavorful Winter Fattoush Salad.

The Autumn Minestrone Soup is a delicious way to stay warm and the Chicken Parmesan Pasta Bake is a unique spin on the favorite Italian dish.  You could serve either of them with the Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Pears & Pistachios.

If you read our coaching tip on Tuesday, we provided ideas on how to enjoy holiday treats without going overboard.  The Brownie Batter Dessert Hummus is like grabbing a spoonful of chocolaty brownie batter – it makes the ideal snack or sweet treat dessert.  We have even been told, “you could frost a cake with this stuff, it is THAT good!”  Use the 3-bite rule and you will be perfectly satisfied!
