If you’ve ever stood in your kitchen at 5:30 p.m. with zero energy and zero ideas, Cooking Burnout Club is for you.
I created these meal plans because dinner shouldn’t feel like a daily crisis. The goal isn’t perfection or complicated recipes. The goal is peace of mind. Fewer decisions. Minimal chopping. Simple ingredients. Meals that are quick, easy, and actually delicious, or they don’t make the cut.
Meal Plan 5 is built exactly that way. Every recipe is designed to keep effort low while still delivering flavor that feels worth it.
Here’s what we are making this week
Easy Lasagna Soup with Ground Chicken
This lasagna soup is a one-pot dinner made with ground chicken, pasta, marinara, and cottage cheese for a creamy texture. It comes together in about 20 minutes using simple ingredients and minimal prep.
Mediterranean Shrimp Recipe (Ready in 20 Minutes)
This Mediterranean shrimp recipe is a one-pot, baked dinner made with shrimp, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, white beans, and tomatoes. Everything cooks together in the oven for an easy, low-effort meal.
