Meal Plan 32: December 18 – 24

Monday: Lasagna soup with herby ricotta, this week’s newest recipe. Less than 45 minutes to make this superstar of a meal!

Tuesday: Chicken fajjitas. With some pico de gallo and guacamole. Black bean and corn salsa too for good measure!

Wednesday: Shrimp curry ramen. I can’t wait to make this – just bought some bok choy and fresh ramen noodles for it!

Thursday: Minestrone soup for a veggie filled soup

Friday: Creamy tomato skillet chicken and spinach with some pasta! If you have some leftover pasta sauce hanging out in your fridge, this is the perfect place to us it up!

Saturday: Shishbarak or wonton soup! Two totally different flavors but both require some time. So make extra with a family or friends, and freeze a whole bunch for future meals in the beginning of the year!

Breakfast: Baklava cinnamon rolls! No further comment needed.

Dessert: Ghraybeh and salted brown butter chocolate chip cookies! Christmas baking is in full effect!

Drink: Sahlab. I know I’ll definitely be making this!
