DAY 1: What could be cozier or more fall-ish than a bowl of warm baked oatmeal laced with cinnamon and a drizzle of maple syrup? Think about it. I’ll wait.
Tell me you’re a Texan without telling me you’re a Texan: Steak fajitas are such a classic Tex-Mex staple, AND Imma ’bout to blow your mind with the easiest, tastiest 5 minute restaurant-style salsa. Ready?
Here’s all you need:
1 (28oz) can of diced tomatoes
1 small onion
½ TBS white vinegar
1 lime
Large handful of cilantro
Salt
Cumin
Garlic powder
Cayenne
*Throw all of the ingredients in a blender, and pulverize them until the cilantro + onion are well-incorporated.
**All of the spices are to taste, but I would start with ½ tsp. cumin, ½ tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. salt, and ¼ tsp. of cayenne…and add more if you feel it needs it.
DAY 2: I’ve got three delicious words for you: breakfast bagel sliders. Need I say more?
Another warm, scrumptious option for the cooler months is this one pot Chicken Pesto Pasta. Double your carb fun with these one hour yeast rolls, and you’ve got the definition of comfort food.
DAY 3: And while we’re on a warm and toasty (ha) theme, this Pioneer Woman Cinnamon Baked French Toast has my mouth watering just thinking about it.
Chicken Tortilla soup is such a go-to around here. We like to make it with salsa chicken + chili beans (instead of black beans) in the place of the jalapenos for some instant kick without all of the chopping.
DAY 4: A breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, and fruit may be as basic (and yet, yummy) as they come, but this Chicken Marsala recipe feels fancy without trying too hard.
DAY 5: I love all of the options for green smoothies ingredients/combos in this “recipe.” Pretty much endless healthy combos!
Slow Cooker Pulled Pork sandwiches with a bit of tangy slaw and a side of crispy sweet potato fries (if you don’t want to make them from scratch, Alexia waffle sweet potato fries are DEEE-LISH).
If you’re wondering about lunches, I don’t provide a meal plan for those because we do leftovers, salads, sandwiches, burrito bowls, and other easy options for our middle meal of the day.

And there you have it, folks. Another week, another meal plan you didn’t have to make.
