Start June with these delicious summer meals and a classic Mexican-themed dessert. It’s the season for vacations, poolside lounging, picnics, and grilling. This week’s menu is perfect for all of your warm-weather plans. Let me know which one was your favorite below. I always love hearing from you!

Bring island vibes to your table with my Grilled Huli Huli Chicken. These chicken thighs are marinated with pineapple, soy sauce, and brown sugar, then grilled to perfection. This summer dinner pairs well with corn-on-the-cob, veggies, and a fresh green salad. You will want to add it to your dinner rotation every summer!

This Slow Cooker BBQ Beef Brisket takes time to cook, but the payoff is the most tender and mouthwatering brisket you can use for just about any meal you’re craving. Pile it onto sandwiches for a picnic or potluck, load it over nachos for Taco Tuesday, toss it into fresh green salads, and more. Serve with classic pasta salad or your favorite side of chips for a satisfying summer lunch or dinner.

This amazing Fried Ice Cream Dessert recipe is a tasty twist on the classic Mexican favorite. On hot summer days, nothing beats cold vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate and caramel sauce. The golden, crispy shell made from corn flakes and granulated sugar adds a nice crunch, without any deep-frying required, making it light and easy to prepare.

This week’s Menu Plan Monday features simple, family-friendly weeknight meals with a splash of summer. If you’re already dreaming of vacations, outdoor fun, and backyard gatherings like we are, this week’s menu won’t disappoint!

Searching for a fresh, healthy summer dinner? My Crispy Lemon Garlic Chicken and Veggies is a must-try. It’s meal-prep friendly, easy to clean up, and just as delicious as it is nutritious. The fresh lemon pairs perfectly with the crispy baked chicken and vegetables for a satisfying weeknight meal.

This family-favorite is calling your name for the next pizza night: Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Pizza. The secret lies in the homemade crust, and I recommend using The Best Pizza Dough recipe for perfect results every time. Spread on a generous layer of barbecue sauce, then pile it high with chicken, bacon, red onion, and pineapple chunks for a pizza that truly tastes like summer.

I’m all about no-bake desserts in the summer, and this Heavenly Lemon Oreo Dessert is a Lofthouse obsession. With layers of crushed Golden Oreos, creamy lemon pudding, and sweet cream cheese, all topped with Cool Whip, it’s a refreshing treat that hits the spot every time. If you love my Heavenly Oreo Dessert, think of this as its bright spring and summer twin. Best of all, you’ll have plenty of leftovers for days!

This week’s Menu Plan Monday is aimed to please, from the fresh flatbread pizza to the creamy shrimp pasta and flavorful enchiladas, every dish feels like a celebration. Let’s dive into this week’s recipes, and don’t forget to let me know which one is your favorite in the comments below!

When I think of springtime meals, seafood dishes, especially shrimp, always come to mind. This Shrimp Tortellini Alfredo features plump, golden shrimp and tender, cheese-filled tortellini coated in a rich, creamy homemade Alfredo sauce. Easy to make yet wonderfully indulgent, this pasta dish delivers all the best flavors of the season with every bite.

These Margherita Flatbread Pizzas are a quick, easy, and timeless favorite that never disappoints. Made with your choice of flatbread or pita bread, this recipe keeps things simple without missing out on all the delicious flavors. Juicy Roma tomatoes, fresh basil, melty mozzarella, and a touch of garlic come together to create a classic homemade margherita pizza. You’ll get all the fresh, cheesy goodness you love, without the extra work of making dough from scratch.

My Sugar Cookie Bars are the perfect sweet ending to your Sunday menu—simple, nostalgic, and completely irresistible. They bake up thick and buttery with a tender, almost cake-like texture, then topped with a smooth layer of creamy frosting and a sprinkle of color for that classic bakery-style finish.

Spring is the perfect season for lighter meals, comforting favorites, and delicious fruity desserts. This week’s Menu Plan Monday is no exception, with a little something for everyone. Be sure to let me know which dish is your favorite in the comments below!

Easy Thai Noodles are a delicious light meal that’s both comforting and versatile. You can use whatever noodles you already have on hand: linguini, Pad Thai rice noodles, or even classic spaghetti; all work fine. The sauce is satisfying on its own for a vegetarian-friendly dish, but it also pairs perfectly with chicken, shrimp, or beef if you’re craving extra protein.

Dreaming of Tuscany? Let this recipe take you there. These Tuscan Garlic Chicken Pita Pizzas work well for a springtime appetizer, an easy lunch, or a satisfying dinner. Each pita is generously layered with tender garlic-seasoned chicken, tangy sun-dried tomatoes, spinach leaves, and cheese. Everything comes together over a creamy Alfredo sauce that ties the flavors into a cozy yet light Tuscan-inspired bite.

My Lemon Pudding Cake starts with a fluffy yellow cake that bakes into a creamy lemon pudding base. The light, airy cake and smooth, tangy pudding create a delicious contrast. With its golden layers and zesty lemon flavors, this cake looks good on any dessert table, bringing a little sunshine to each slice.

Easter is just one week away, so this Menu Plan Monday is going to be extra delicious! You’ll notice that on Sunday, I’m sharing my personal favorite Easter recipes. This menu includes side dishes, and a main course you won’t want to miss—plus two bonus desserts at the end for your sweet tooth.

Looking for a main course to serve? Crock Pot Maple Brown Sugar Ham is a Lofthouse holiday staple. It is one of my most cherished recipes to serve for all big holidays, as it easily feeds between 12 to 15 people. With its generous size and flavorful, juicy meat, this ham makes the perfect centerpiece for any Easter table.

No Easter feast is complete without a delicious carrot side! My Garlic Roasted Carrots are oven-baked until tender, perfectly seasoned, and loaded with flavor. They pair beautifully with ham, turkey, chicken, or pot roast, making them a must-bake for your Easter menu. 

This week, I have two special treats to welcome the holiday. The Best Carrot Cake is a cinnamon-flavored cake filled with shredded carrots, sweet coconut, and topped with almond-scented cream cheese frosting! This cake is made without any nuts or fruit.

Not a fan of carrot cake? My Bunny Bait is a fun, sweet treat everyone will love! Made with buttery popcorn, crunchy pretzel sticks, milk and white chocolate M&Ms, and a sweet candy coating, it’s an irresistible Easter snack.

It’s hard to believe March is already winding down. This week’s Menu Plan Monday has a little something for everyone: fresh salads, cheesy enchiladas, homemade pizza, hearty sloppy joes, and carrot cake cookies. It’s going to be a delicious end to the month!

This Dutch Oven Sprite Chicken is a comforting, savory dish that’s a year-round family favorite. This recipe features tender chicken cooked with crispy bacon, hearty russet potatoes, sweet carrots, and more in a single Dutch oven that’s perfect for busy weeknights and Sunday dinners.

For a fun twist on Taco Night, one of my all-time favorites is Doritos Taco Salad. This salad is loaded with seasoned ground beef, black beans, fresh tomatoes, and your choice of dressing; Catalina dressing is my favorite! What really sets this recipe apart is the nacho cheese Doritos chips tossed right in, giving every bite a satisfying, delicious crunch.

Welcome spring and leave winter behind with Carrot Cake Cookies with Cream Cheese Frosting. These cheerful treats are perfect for the season, especially for Easter celebrations and sunny-day gatherings. Inspired by classic carrot cake, they deliver all the warm spices, sweet carrot flavor, and soft, tender texture you love, transformed into a fun, handheld cookie that’s as delightful to make as it is to eat.

This week’s Menu Plan Monday is packed with a variety of delicious dishes, from stuffed meatballs and taco soup, to creamy pasta and a decadent chocolate cake that’s sure to satisfy every craving.

Creamy Pasta Primavera is a timeless Italian favorite, brimming with fresh vegetables, tender linguine, and a rich parmesan-basil cream sauce. Light yet satisfying, this dish captures the bright flavors of spring and makes a perfect side for a hearty main course, or a light dinner when you’re craving classic Italian comfort without the calories.

Planning a St. Patrick’s Day dinner? This top-rated Shepherd’s Pie (Cottage Pie) is the ultimate comfort dish. Traditional shepherd’s pie in Ireland is made with lamb, but this version is prepared with beef instead, cooked with a hearty mix of peas, carrots, onions, and savory seasonings. The leftovers are even better the next day!

With Saint Patrick’s Day just around the corner, this Thin Mint Chocolate Poke Cake is a must-try dessert. Filled with chocolate pudding, crushed thin mint cookies, and topped with peppermint whipped topping, this cake is a dream come true for chocolate and mint lovers.
