Knowing exactly what to cook to make amazing meals this week without a lot of research, planning or just making the same old things is gold! Every week, Monday Menu puts together recipes for you so that you can make 2 easy family meals, breakfast, dessert and a snack without any fuss.
This Week’s Secret To Success
This week’s menu has so many possibilities! Full of mix and match recipes, these meal ideas can share side dishes, offer leftovers or even combine to help you host a brunch with friends this weekend!
Start the week with Million Dollar Spaghetti. It’s melty, cheesy center is everything when it comes to a pasta dish your family will crave. Add a super easy, bright Black Eyed Pea Salad, and instead of rolls, serve it up with Asparagus Twists! They are a deliciously sneaky way to add a veggie to a meal.
Follow that meal with a reader favorite- BLT Quiche! Hearty and filling, it is LOADED with smoky bacon just like a good BLT should be. Make the most of cooking up a pan of bacon by adding in a few extra pieces for a classic spinach salad and using the drippings to make Hot Bacon Dressing! Have any leftover Asparagus Twists or Black Eyed Pea Salad? Add them to your quiche meal!
Want to have some friends over this weekend? Make the BLT Quiche, Spinach Salad with Hot Bacon Dressing, Blackberry Fruit Pizza, Asparagus Twists and Creole Sausage Balls to create an incredible brunch!
Monday Menu makes it easy for you to have all the ideas! There are so many ways to use this week’s recipes to cook up something wonderful for your family and friends.
