Skinnytaste Dinner Plan (Week 37). The middle of summer always seems like such a crazy time! I have had friends and family visiting for the last month so I skipped my meal plan last week but I’m back to planning and shopping for the week. I’m taking advantage of all those summer zucchinis and added a few recipes this week to use them up.
Pictured below is The Skinnytaste Meal Planner where I plan my dinners for the week (you can of course use any meal planner). Meal planning is a great way to get organized before heading to the supermarket to get ready for the week! My breakfast is usually something quick like eggs with fruit, a smoothie or avocado toast. We’re a family of four, so if a recipe serves more, it’s either packed up for everyone’s lunch or eaten the next day as leftovers. If you would like to see some of the previous week’s dinner plans, click here
