Every week, I sit down and write out a menu plan {Free Menu Plan Printable} to make sure we eat at home and follow our budget for the month. Some weeks are harder than others with our busy schedules and on those crazy weeks I fill up our menu plan with slow cooker meals or quick and easy 30 minute meals or a combo of both. I also love keeping a freezer full of delicious side dishes that cook up quickly on busy days.
My family loves Alexia Food’s all-natural frozen sides and potatoes, so this partnership with them to bring you these 5 easy weeknight meals that are ready in under 30 minutes was a fun {and easy} post to put together for them. In case you haven’t tried Alexia products, they are made with premium, natural ingredients and creative flavor combinations, making them the perfect addition to any meal and can be ready in 25 minutes—or less.

Thanks for the quick recipes. I’m constantly in the lookout for quick meals from different people as it lets me switch up what the kids eat so they get used to trying new things.

These look great! I’m always cooking the same old thing and it gets old after awhile. Thanks for these great ideas!
