Weekly Meal Plan 28 is filled with proven family favorites, including Honey Mustard Chicken, Taco Soup, Chicken Pot Pie Casserole and more. Every meal is under $6 per serving and comes together with one grocery trip and one shopping list.

This is one of my favorite meal plan weeks because every dinner has been tested and approved by my family of 10. These are the recipes they ask for again and again, which makes planning busy weeknights so much easier.
We all love how these Weekly Menu Plans have made dinnertime a breeze. Make sure to also check out Meal Plan 27, Meal Plan 26, Meal Plan 25 for even more ideas.
