Print Shopping List
Another great thing about this Meal Plan is we include a easy to use Shopping List. Before heading to the store, print this shopping list. We recommend shopping your pantry first, as it is possible you may already have the ingredients.
Monday – Slow Cooker Pineapple Chicken
Slow cooking the chicken in the sweet and savory sauce gives it so much flavor, and this recipe is kid-approved! Serve over rice with a side of veggies for a complete meal idea.
Tuesday – Crock Pot Pinto Beans
Crock Pot Pinto Beans is a classic recipe that is always a family favorite. We love making this Fried Cornbread for a delicious addition to this pinto beans recipe.
Wednesday – Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs
This is the perfect recipe to serve for you next summertime BBQ or for the 4th of July holiday. You can serve this with plenty of side dishes, but you’d love it with this Mediterranean Pasta Salad.
Thursday – Fried Pork Chops
Quick and Easy Fried Pork Chops are a family favorite. Pork Chops are seasoned with easy ingredients and then fried to perfection. And this Twice Baked Potatoes would be a great side.
Friday – Crock Pot Chicken Lo Mein
No need to order take out when you can make this easy and delicious Crock Pot Chicken Lo Mein Recipe at home. The slow cooker does all the work and you can have delicious lo mein ready and waiting.
Breakfast – Strawberry Mango Smoothie
Strawberry Mango Smoothie is a light and refreshing smoothie. It is delicious and makes the perfect breakfast smoothie or afternoon snack.
Dessert – Scotcheroos Bars
These all-time favorite treats are simple, chewy, and full of flavor.
Make meal planning even easier by using the Lazy Day Cooking Club. We show you how to spend about 2 minutes throwing dinner in the slow cooker in the morning with simple steps. Then when you get home, dinner is done. Makes it perfect for those busy weeknights.
