My June Menu Plan

For a few months I’ve been sharing my weekly menu plan on Instagram. Today when I posted, I got several requests for these recipes, so I thought that moving forward, I’d capture the first full week of the month and include recipes here that you can use throughout the month. For those recipes where I wing it, I’ll provide guesstimates for ingredient amounts.

So, here’s our June menu plan with recipes below! I promise next month I’ll have some nice pictures!

Sunday — Beef Burgers and Corn

Ingredients for 4 servings:
1.5 lbs ground beef
2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Buns
Burger toppings
Corn on the cob

For the burgers: Combine beef, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Combine and form into patties. Grill on medium heat to your desired doneness (I like mine medium rare — about 5 minutes per side until it’s 135 degrees Fahrenheit). Let them rest, then put on buns and add your favorite topics and condiments.

For the corn: Peel the corn. Boil for about 5 minutes. Finish them off on the grill to give them a little color and a slight char if you like.

Monday — Ribs and Potato Salad

We use this rib recipe, but as a MAJOR shortcut, we use Secret Stadium Sauce as our sauce (if you’re not from MKE, any favorite bottled BBQ sauce will do).
We love this potato salad recipe.
And I used tossed an Aldi’s Chopped Bacon Avocado Ranch salad for another side.

Tuesday — Greek Quinoa Chicken Salad

This greek quinoa salad recipe is nearly identical to the recipe I make almost weekly. However, I don’t usually use chickpeas, often add avocado, and if I’m in a hurry I use Ken’s Greek Dressing. This week, I’m adding grilled chicken, although I often add rotisserie chicken. My kids love this healthy dinner — it’s one of our go-to healthy weeknight dinners.

Wednesday — Wild Rice Salad with Roasted Squash

My friend Amy was talking about this recipe the other day and I had to try it. I can’t wait to make it later this week. Here’s the recipe.

Thursday — Ground Turkey Tacos

I typically wing my ground turkey tacos, but this recipe is very similar. My family’s favorite toppings include: cheese, guacamole, salsa, and red onion. Some times we put them in tortillas, and some times we eat it over romaine lettuce as a salad.

Friday and Saturday

We don’t cook on weekends typically. One night we order pizza and make a quick salad, and often we’re out one night (or carry out this past year).

Ok, this will be fun! I’ll try to have meals that will be good to make throughout the month and will include photos next time!

Writing more soon!

Do you have a reading goal for 2022? The past two Do you have a reading goal for 2022? The past two years I’ve read about a book a week, hitting 52 books in 2020 and even more this year. I can happily say this goal is no longer a tough one for me, but a new habit and hobby that bring so much joy to my life. Part of that is this community, so thank you all! I’ll continue reading (and posting about it) just as much next year, but I’ll be focused less on quantity and more on quality. I’m excited to see where another year of reading takes me.
 
I’d love to hear what your plans for reading are in 2022! And watch for a post on my favorite books of 2021 coming soon!
