Hello everyone! This week brings a mix of easy family favorites, utilizing leftovers, and a fantastic opportunity to connect with at a communal dinner. Here’s what we’ll be eating:

Sunday: Pizza Night

A classic Sunday tradition! We’re keeping it simple and satisfying with a pizza night. Everyone gets to choose their favorite toppings for a relaxed end to the weekend.

Monday: Burgers, Fries, & Veggies

This straightforward and always-a-hit meal consists of grilling up some hamburgers, whipping up some fries, and serving a side of cut veggies for a little balance.

Tuesday: Leftover Love

Tuesday is all about embracing the deliciousness from previous meals. It’s a great way to reduce food waste and enjoy some familiar flavors without extra cooking.

Wednesday: Fish Tacos with Instant Pot Flair

We’re having a flavorful midweek meal with fish tacos. The Instant Pot makes the Mexican rice easy, and a fresh slaw adds a nice crunch and contrast.

Thursday: Hearty Jambalaya

Thursday calls for a comforting and flavorful Jambalaya packed with sausage. This one-pot wonder is always a satisfying and aromatic dish.

Friday: Community Connection

We’re looking forward to a communal dinner at our friend’s synagogue tonight. It’s a wonderful opportunity to connect with our community and enjoy a shared meal.
