While summer tends to be a bit slower now that school is out, weeknight dinners are often still a conundrum. Criteria for summer weeknight dinners: Easy, fast, doesn't heat up the house, family won't complain, something I look forward to eating, too. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR?? 😉 Below are a few of the dinners that I've already made in June...and a few others that are on the menu for this week and next! Bring on the easy dinners! (Also scroll down for a list of my favorite summer pies...)
1. Instant Pot Salsa Verde Chicken
This chicken is delish served in tortillas, made into nachos, thrown into salads...it's so versatile and yummy! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We loved this one! So easy and my chicken came out very tender. We will make this often! Can be used in so many ways. Thank you! -Alison
2. Crispy Beef and Bean Wraps
One of our favorites! If you have leftover, cooked ground beef, these wraps come together in a flash (but even if you don't, they are so quick and easy to make and they crisp up in a skillet or on a griddle). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ So good and SO easy! I’m doubling the filling next time to freeze and make a hearty, flavorful dinner in minutes. Thank you, Mel! -Valerie
3. Easy Korean Beef Bowls
These bowls are fresh, flavorful, fast...and they happen to be one of my personal favorites, so I selfishly add this recipe to the menu plan often. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ THIS RECIPE IS SO GOOD. I cannot recommend this enough! -Beatrice
4. Quick and Easy Egg Roll Skillet Meal
Love, love this meal. We usually serve over rice with store bought naan bread (and if you haven't had the thin rice chow mein noodles...they are a game changer!). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a weekly staple for us! We serve it over egg noodles. I’d mark 6/5 stars if I could. -Hannah F
5. Thai-Style Ground Turkey and Green Beans
One of my favorite ways to serve this is adding a fried egg on top. SO GOOD. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Even my picky eaters loved this one! Definitely adding to the regular dinner rotation. Thank you Mel! -Erika
6. Sheet Pan Honey Garlic Chicken and Veggies
This is such a delicious summer meal! It does use the oven...but it cooks so fast (and is so yummy) that it is totally worth it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is an excellent dinner! So quick and easy. Simple, healthy and delicious. It’s going in my regular dinner rotation. Thank you so much for a great recipe!! -Sharon
7. Skillet Lemon Parmesan Chicken and Zucchini
Don't discount this simple meal - it's so tasty! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was delicious! We served it with a brown rice/quinoa mix. Even my picky eaters who claimed to not like squash were very happy with it. No leftovers! Thanks again Mel!! -Kamber
8. Chicken and Veggie Fajita Bowls
Agree with Kathleen ⬇️ - this one is a keeper! I love how easy it is for every one to customize their own serving (great for picky eaters!). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It’s the 4th time I’ve made this in the past 2 months so I figured I better give it a 5 star rating. My boys love it! The seasoning for the chicken is delicious. Thanks, Mel! -Kathleen
9. Slow Cooker Italian Beef
This beef makes the best sandwiches! And the cooked meat can be frozen for super easy future meals. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I have made this several times and it’s wonderful! Better than using packets and just easy! -Kelly
