About This Meal Plan

Take it easy and shop your pantry for this week’s meal plan! Whether it’s leftover vodka from the weekend or cornflakes from breakfast, let's make the most out of them with these exciting recipes.

Meatless Monday: Penne alla Vodka
Taco Tuesdays: Chickpea Tikka Masala
Wednesday: Mexican Rice
Thursday: Pimento Cornflake Tuna Casserole
Friday: Black Bean Quinoa Burger

Meatless Monday

Penne alla Vodka

SideChef

You don't need to go out to a restaurant to enjoy delicious Penne alla Vodka! Using tomato paste instead of canned tomatoes actually gives this sauce a richer, more concentrated umami flavor - we sure aren't complaining.

Tuesday

PREMIUM

Chickpea Tikka Masala

Live Eat Learn

This Chickpea Tikka Masala recipe is an easy dinner to whip up when the Indian food cravings hit (plus, it’s vegan)! This recipe isn't an exact science, so feel free to throw in some cauliflower, paneer, tofu, or some plant-based "chicken" if you feel like it.

Wednesday

Mexican Rice

StreetSmart Kitchen

This authentic Mexican rice recipe makes an ideal dish to serve on the side of Mexican cuisine like enchiladas, quesadillas, burrito bowls. Whether you keep it as is or add slices of avocado on top, I promise that you won’t be disappointed.

Thursday

Pimento Cornflake Tuna Casserole

Lauren Holdcroft at SideChef

Not your mother’s tuna casserole! In this recipe, we elevate the classic weeknight favorite with pimento, green bell pepper, and a crunchy garlic parmesan topping made from breakfast cereal!

Friday

PREMIUM

Black Bean Quinoa Burger

Jessica Gavin

Easy black bean quinoa burger with roasted red pepper sauce. This meatless recipe is a delicious and healthy vegetarian alternative.
