Weekly Menu Plan 242

December 16, 2022 by Jodi + Leave a Comment

Each Weekly Menu Plan is a collection of delicious dinner recipes, side dishes and a few desserts that will hopefully offer a little dinner inspiration and help make your week a little smoother one recipe at a time.

this …

Wow, it’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted a weekly meal plan. I’m also really late getting this post up today so let’s just cut right to the chase. As always, I love everything this week (do I ever not love everything?!). The Chicken in Lemon and Cream is amazing and tastes like it came from a five-star restaurant! It’s perfect for holiday dinner parties and I think it’s what I’m actually going to serve this year for my sibling Christmas dinner.

The Kentucky butter cake is one of the most delicious bundt cakes you’ll ever eat! It’s a great dessert for the holidays if you’re looking for something new to try. Try topping it with fresh berries and whipped cream . . . oh la la, it’s good! Be sure and make it a day in advance because it’s even better if you do.

Have a great weekend and remember, I’d love to hear back from you about anything you make. If you’re on Instagram, please be sure and tag me (@jodi_lud_5boysbaker) if you make something.
