Meal Plan Monday Recipes/Products
Chicken Fajitas
We will be making my kid approved chicken fajita recipe. My son always seems to enjoy this one!
Mexican Street Corn
Street corn is always a really quick and easy side dish to throw together. Check out my Easy Mexican Street Corn recipe.
Ribs
We will be smoking the ribs on my pellet smoker. I haven’t done a recipe for this yet, but we coat our ribs in yellow mustard (I know it sounds weird, but the acidity breaks down the fibers and tendons in the ribs). I season all over with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Smoke your ribs for 2 hours on 225°F. Remove them from the smoker, place them in aluminum foil, pour 1 cup of apple juice on top. Seal the aluminum foil and then smoke for another 2 hours on 250°F. Coat with your favorite BBQ (we use Lillie’s Q Gold BBQ, it’s my favorite and the best Carolina Gold sauce I have found), and sear over an open flame.
Note: you have to remove the membrane, it’s key in good ribs!
Roasted Broccoli
Place your broccoli in a ziploc bag with olive oil, fresh ground salt, fresh cracked pepper and some garlic powder. Shake well to coat evenly and then spread the broccoli onto a large sheet pan sprayed with olive oil cooking spray. Bake at 425°F for about 20 minutes (depending on broccoli sizes).
Green Beans
If you have tried my Southern Green Beans with Bacon recipe, I strongly urge you to give them a try. They are so good!
Spaghetti and Meatballs
We will be using my two recipes, Mom’s Cheater Spaghetti and Dad’s Famous Meatballs. This is the best combination!
I still need to create recipes for the remaining items. I am slowly working on getting these all imaged and typed out, stay tuned if they sound good!

We have spaghetti and our 3 meat sauce on the menu for the weekend (we put meatballs, chunks of pepperoni, and some sweet Italian sausage in the sauce and let it cook all day long). And tonight we’re having pulled pork sandwiches with chips… my husband usually smokes two pork butts at once and we freeze the leftovers all pulled and ready to eat for easy and quick mid-week meals.
Thanks for sharing your meal plan! There are some yummy recipes I want to try – especially the Sweet Chili Chicken! I found you from Miz Helen’s Country Cottage Linky Party, and I’m so glad I did. I try to post my weekly meal plan on my blog each week. You can find my most recent one here: https://thespiritedlifeofgrammy.blogspot.com/2023/12/weekly-menu-plan-12-3-to-12-9-2023.html
Maybe you’ll get an idea or two there! I’ll be checking back each week, thanks so much for the inspiration!
