Healthy Weekly Meal Plan 11.5.16

Pesto Gnocchi with Sausage Asparagus and Mushrooms and One Pan Maple Balsamic Chicken with Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash are just two of the nutritious, comfort foods we have on this week’s meal plan!

Is anyone else happy that Halloween is over?

I love to see my kids excited and dressed up, but man it’s a lot of work.  I am looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas myself and I just wish time would slow down a bit.

I don’t know about you, but I am totally making that Pesto Gnocchi first.  Two of my favorites! And I might be a little biased, but I am in love with my Sweet Potato Kale Quinoa Skillet.  I’ve made it so many times, it’s just so easy!

Speaking of easy, here are this week’s healthy meals…

Monday

Roasted Butternut Squash Pizza from Hip Foodie Mom.

Note for cook: One small sized butternut squash should yield about 2 cups of roasted butternut squash to be used for the pizza. It’s important not to load on too many toppings onto your pizza so it cooks evenly. This will yield a more crispy and better tasting pizza.

Tuesday

One Pot Sweet Potato Kale Quinoa Skillet from Lauren Kelly Nutrition.

Prep Tip: This will be ready in under 30 minutes!

Wednesday

Pesto Gnocchi with Sausage Asparagus and Mushrooms from Flavor the Moments.

Prep Tips: Since asparagus is out of season, feel free to sub with broccoli or peas! Pesto may be made in advance.

Thursday

One Pan Maple Balsamic Chicken with Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash from greens & chocolate.

Friday

Roasted Pears with Cranberries Walnuts and Blue Cheese from Spoonful of Flavor.

And I can’t forget our amazing grocery list!
