Skinnytaste Dinner Plan (Week 89)

Skinnytaste Dinner Plan (Week 89). Adding some favorites to this weeks menu along with some new recipes from last week. The weather is cooling down, perfect for zucchini soup which I added to the menu this week! It’s super light, perfect with a sandwich for dinner!

Pictured below is The Skinnytaste Meal Planner where I plan my dinners for the week (you can of course use any meal planner). Meal planning is a great way to get organized before heading to the supermarket to get ready for the week! My breakfast is usually something quick like eggs with fruit, a smoothie or avocado toast. We’re a family of four, so if a recipe serves more, it’s either packed up for everyone’s lunch or eaten the next day as leftovers. If you would like to see some of the previous week’s dinner plans, click here.

Cubano Chicken (Pickle, Ham and Swiss Chicken Roll Ups)

This Cubano Chicken Roll Up idea came to me after having a serious pickle craving! I wanted to make a hot dish utilizing dill pickles in some way and decided to stuff a chicken breast with everything you'd normally find in a Cuban Sandwich – pickles, mustard, Swiss, and ham. But I took it a step further and brined the cutlets overnight in pickle juice for extra flavor, the results were outstanding!!!

(Instant Pot) Chipotle Chicken Bowls with Cilantro Lime Quinoa

These Chipotle Chicken Bowls with Cilantro Lime Quinoa are so easy to make and have tons of flavor! I like to make them with chicken thighs but if you prefer white meat, chicken breast would work too. Extra limes for squeezing on top are recommended!

Colombian-Style Zucchini Rellenos

These Stuffed Zucchinis, which are low-carb, Whole30, Keto, gluten-free, dairy-free and Paleo, are inspired from a Colombian dish, Pepino Rellenos which I fell in love with when I was there many years ago.

These Stuffed Zucchinis, which are low-carb, Whole30, Keto, gluten-free, dairy-free and Paleo, are inspired from a Colombian dish, Pepino Rellenos which I fell in love with when I was there many years ago. It’s not a dish you would see in a restaurant menu, it’s a dish you would find someone cooking in their kitchen for a weeknight meal. In Colombia, they don’t use zucchinis, instead they use Pepinos known as stuffing cucumbers or Slippery Gourds in English. Because that’s not very common here, I used zucchini which are in season.

Skinnytaste Dinner Plan (Week 88)

Skinnytaste Dinner Plan (Week 88). Adding some easy meals to the list plus one of my family’s favorite – Breaded Pork Cutlets with Lime. If you haven’t tried this I highly recommend it! If you don’t eat pork, chicken would work. And with so much basil still in my garden, we LOVE the tomato soup, hope you do too!
