Themed dinner nights make your weekly dinner plans easy as 1, 2, 3! Picking a theme not only makes it easier to choose what to prepare for your family but also brings excitement to mealtime. Read on to see how this simple planning idea can help you create memorable meals!

Tips and ideas for making memorable meals: 

  • Few things mix up your evening like realizing you don’t have the key ingredient for the dish you want to prepare. Planning your weekly menu before going to the grocery store will help you say goodbye to this problem! Setting aside the time to plan your weekly meals and grocery list can save you stress, money and make mealtime much more enjoyable. Write down your grocery list before leaving for the store to ensure you are good to go for the week! 
  • Using frozen vegetables is a great way to add color, flavor, and important vitamins and minerals to your meal. Frozen vegetables are also great for saving time at home and in the grocery store. Stock up on your favorite veggies and you’ll have them on hand for any occasion. Save time prepping because frozen veggies are already washed and cut before freezing! Frozen vegetables also typically cook faster than fresh vegetables because they are partially cooked before freezing. Each of the recipes below is made using one of our favorite frozen green veggies.
