Happy Meal Plan Monday Readers!
OH MAN! We had the busiest and BEST week with friends last week! It went by in an absolute flash and I am so sad they had to leave.
However, I don’t think my stomach is as sad!😂
Lots of wine, pizza, home cooked meals, sushi and croissants.

So obviously that means lots of nutritious meals and veggies this week.
I thought of a new recipe to try. Bacon Black Bean Tacos! How good does that sound?!
Made with come Cotija cheese, cilantro, lime juice, and spicy-sweet corn salsa. Yum-O!
I hope you are ready for this weeks meals because I AM!
Also, if you are not already, go follow The Short Wife on Facebook and Instagram! We have a lot of fun over there 👍🏻
Monday // Butternut Squash Soup with Grilled Chicken
What is better in the fall than a soup? So this week I am going to go with a butternut squash soup that is spiced to perfection and so warm and yummy.
Tuesday // Lemon-Thyme Swordfish with Orzo and roasted Broccoli and Carrots
Swordfish is one of my favorite types of seafood to eat. Throw the flavors of lemon and thyme on there and it is so delicious!
Wednesday // Bacon & Black Bean Tacos with Sweet n Spicy Corn Salsa
I thought of this recipe at random this weekend! That’s how most of my recipes come about, random pictures of food in my head and then I create them!
But how good does this sound?!
Thursday // Leftovers
Friday // Italian Sausage with Roasted veggies and Basmati Rice
This is a pretty basic meal in our household. Why? It’s easy! Throw a bunch of sausage and veggies in the oven and bam! Delish meal.
Saturday // Salmon Dill Burgers with Autumn Sweet Potatoes and Green Beans
I have made salmon burgers many times before and every single time they are amazing! They are a nice twist to a burger and an every night meal.
My “Autumn Sweet Potatoes” are probably what you can guess. Spices in the fall (cinnamon and nutmeg) bake on sliced of sweet potato and it is so good! Also randomly came up with this side dish last week.
That’s all the meals for this week guys! Hope you enjoyed them!
Thanks for reading,
