Weeknight Meal Planner: Week of February 27th
Fried Brussels Sprout Tacos
You've never had brussels like this. Fry them with shallots and jalapenos and serve them in a warm tortilla with crema (or sour cream) for a quick and delicious dinner. Add whatever you like, such as carrot, cilantro, or radish. This will be a meatless Monday to remember!

Creamy Linguine with Peas, Carrots, and Prosciutto
There's nothing better than a creamy pasta dish, especially when it's a super fast recipe. Incorporate peas, carrots, and prosciutto for texture and flavor in every bite. We also heard that this dish makes fabulous leftovers, so plan on knocking out dinner and lunch tomorrow with just one recipe.

Spinach Salad with Roasted Sweet Potatoes
An All-Purpose Citrus Dressing makes these greens shine. Roasted sweet potatoes are a change of pace in terms of salad toppings (and we're obsessed). They're warm, filling, and hearty, yet still healthy. This salad is pictured with Easy Herbed Pork Tenderloin. If you don't have an hour, try one of the protein suggestions bellow.
Serve with:
Maple-Mustard Glazed Chicken
Sauteed Chicken Breasts

Chicken and Butternut Gnocchi
Use prepared gnocchi to save time-- it doesn't even require boiling! This upscale dish gets its flavor from pesto, sage, garlic, and parmesan cheese. Our favorite part? You only need one pan.

Greek Spaghetti Squash Toss
While the spaghetti squash is roasting, prepare your toppings: red onion, chick peas, tomatoes, feta, and spinach. This simple dish is quick, easy, and healthful. Add leftover chicken or pork from Wednesday's salad if you feel like you'll need a little something extra.

Inside-Out King Cake
Make this quicker version of a King Cake using a box of hot roll mix. We turned the tables and put the colorful icing on the inside. Here's to Mardi Gras!
