Menu Plan Monday #611

Discover Menu Plan Monday! A weekly dose of easy recipes, both new and familiar, to simplify and elevate your fall dinner menu.

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

This week’s Menu Plan Monday is filled with simple, comforting recipes that embrace the flavors of early fall with everything from Pesto Tortellini Salad to Pizza-Stuffed Pasta Shells. Plus, you’ll find easy-to-make meals perfect for the busy school season as sports and extracurricular activities pick up.

This cheese-filled tortellini salad is the perfect bridge between seasons tossed in vibrant basil pesto, crispy bacon, and briny olives for a bold yet balanced flavor. Pesto Tortellini Salad brings together the light, fresh notes of summer with the cozy comfort of fall pasta cravings. It’s quick, incredibly satisfying, and perfect for everything from quick leftovers and easy weeknight dinners.

With fall comes warm comfort food. My Cheesy Chicken and Broccoli Rice Skillet is one-pan comfort at its best! Tender chicken, creamy rice, and broccoli come together in a savory, cheesy skillet meal that’s quick, delicious, and full of cheesy goodness. This hearty one-skillet dish is as convenient as it is satisfying.

One of my favorite fall desserts is a warm cobbler. Try my Easy Cherry Cobbler. A warm dessert featuring sweet cherry pie filling and a golden, cake-like crust, ready to be sliced in just under 45 minutes. Perfect for chilly evenings, it’s straightforward to make and sure to impress. Top it off with whipped cream or your favorite vanilla bean ice cream. Yum! 🍒
