Welcome back to my weekly meal plan roundup! This week marks the final stretch of basketball season for my daughter, meaning our evenings are a little less hectic—at least until track starts! I’m also looking forward to celebrating my foodie sister, Libby, with some delicious eats during Downtown Kalamazoo Restaurant Week.
While I won’t be joining my family for dinner on Monday since it’s a down day for me, I’ve still planned out some delicious, satisfying meals for the rest of the week. Let’s dive into what’s on the menu!
This Week’s Meals
Monday: Taco Night! 🌮
Even though I won’t be eating dinner tonight, my family will be enjoying a classic favorite—tacos! I always make taco meat in bulk (watch how I prep it here). To go with it, I’m making queso using half a block of Clancy’s white cheese and a can of Casa Mamita Rotel dupe, plus Spanish rice to round out the meal.
Tuesday: Tomato Soup & Grilled Cheese 🍞🧀
Nothing beats the combo of a warm bowl of homemade tomato soup and a crispy grilled cheese sandwich. I’ll be making my grilled cheese panini-style with mayo, avocado, havarti cheese, buffalo chicken, all on Everything Sourdough bread.
Wednesday: Breakfast for Dinner 🥓🍳
A favorite in our house! We’ll be having crispy bacon, eggs cooked to preference, breakfast potatoes, and some homemade applesauce.
Thursday: Steak & Gnocchi Night 🥩🍽
This meal is going to be indulgent and comforting! I’ll be making crispy fried gnocchi, flavorful steak bites, creamy alfredo sauce, and roasted asparagus on the side.
Friday: Pizza Night 🍕🥗
It’s a classic Friday tradition—carry-out pizza with fresh salads at home. My salad will be loaded with radishes, artichokes, beets, cheese, and all the fresh veggies I can find!
Saturday: Sister’s Birthday Dinner Out 🎉
I’m so excited to celebrate my sister Libby’s birthday while exploring Downtown Kalamazoo Restaurant Week! This will be a fun foodie adventure, and I can’t wait to share more about what we try.
Sunday: Leftover Night 🍽
After a busy weekend, it’s a perfect night to enjoy some leftovers. I’m thinking it’ll be a mix of pizza, tomato soup, and grilled cheese—an easy and delicious way to wrap up the week.
Where I Shop
My weekly grocery haul starts with my Monday ALDI trip, where I stock up on staples and seasonal finds at budget-friendly prices. I also make stops at Walmart, Costco, and Trader Joe’s to keep things interesting and find specialty items.

Many of the meals I make come from recipes I save on Pinterest. If you’re looking for more inspiration, check out my Intermittent Fasting Foodie Pinterest page!
I’m also making some festive cake pops for the basketball team this week—because even though the season is ending, a sweet treat is always a good idea!
