Menu Plan Monday is full of delicious lunch and dinner ideas. Ditch the drive thru this week, and see how amazing and easy home-cooked food can be!

Menu Plan Monday is a collection of family favorite recipes from dinner to dessert.

Christmas is a couple of weeks away and I am more than excited! I love the holiday season for too many reasons to count. This time of year is all about comfort foods that fill you up and bring you joy. There is always a great excuse around the holidays to have that extra serving, eat one more cookie, and indulge in your favorite meals. This week’s meals will leave your family stuffed and satisfied.

One of my kids’ new favorite dinners is my Baked Spaghetti. They can’t get enough of it! This dish is incredible for larger families since it can feed an army. It has all the classic components of traditional spaghetti baked in the oven with tons of cheese. My Cheesy Ranch Chicken Pasta is another filling pasta dish that my kids devour. Serve with a green salad and you’ll have one hearty dinner.

Since we are in the middle of cold weather it’s time to get cozy, turn on a Christmas movie and sip on some hot cocoa. My Slow Cooker Peppermint Hot Chocolate will fill your home with the irresistible aroma of chocolate and peppermint. I like to make this towards the end of the day and serve it as a dessert. Throw a giant marshmallow in each cup as the perfect topping to this sweet drink.

I hope you enjoy this week’s delicious menu plan. –Holly xo
