Dinner Divas Weekly Meal Plan (February 25 - March 1)
Looking for food inspiration for next week's menu? Look no farther than the Dinner Divas weekly meal plan, a comprehensive plan that includes FIVE dinners and two sweet treats!
Monday's Dinner: Chicken and Sausage Gumbo
Mardi Gras is creeping nearer, and what better way than to celebrate with a big 'ol pot of gumbo? I'll be honest: This recipe takes a little bit of paring down to serve the family on a weeknight, but it's worth the math because gumbo is the ultimate winter comfort food.
Tuesday's Dinner: Pesto, Shrimp and Zoodles
By a show of hands, who's a ZOODLE fan? We certainly are, and the combination of shrimp and pesto with this gluten free alternative is brilliant, bright and PERFECT for a weeknight dinner.
Wednesday's Dinner: Langostino Étouffée
Y'all should know by now that I am all about an étouffée. This langostino twist on the Louisiana classic is perfect for the whole family and comforting to boot!
Thursday's Dinner: Chicken Noodle Soup
You can never, ever, ever go wrong with Chicken Noodle Soup, in my opinion, and this rendition from Comfortably Domestic is PERFECT for a chilly weeknight.
Friday's Dinner: Spicy Chicken Guacamole Sandwich
End the week strong with a Spicy Chicken Guacamole Sandwich!This sandwich, layered with guac and flavorful chicken.
Dessert #1: Crunchy Butterscotch Candy
Butterscotch is one of my favorite things, but I've never considered making it until now. Pastry Chef Online knows ALL the tips and tricks, and I cannot wait to give this recipe a try! Are you a butterscotch fan, too?
Dessert #2: Cream Cheese and Raspberry King Cake
Since Mardi Gras is in a matter of weeks, push up your sleeves and make a homemade KING CAKE! While it's definitely a labor of love and takes some time, this classic filled king cake is a fan favorite for a reason!
