Whether you’re navigating food allergies or just looking for simple, wholesome recipes, this weekly meal plan has you covered. Let’s make mealtime your favorite part of the week—no compromises, just safe, great food!
Welcome to Allergy-Friendly Weekly Eats!
This series was born out of my own need to get more organized about dinner. As a food blogger, you might think I absolutely LOVE to cook—and you’re not wrong, I do! I adore creating recipes and baking up a storm, especially for special occasions. But let’s be real—when dinner becomes a daily 5:00 PM task, it can feel overwhelming, even for me. I created this plan to ease my own mealtime struggles, and I hope it helps you tackle yours, too.
Each week, you can expect a thoughtfully curated meal plan featuring:
1️⃣ A tried-and-true savory dish that’s perfect for busy weeknights.
2️⃣ Recipes that are all egg, nut, and peanut-free, with easy instructions to adapt for other allergies.
3️⃣ Helpful tips to make meal prep and cooking stress-free.
4️⃣ Family favorites—these are the dishes I cook for my own family, so you know they’re tested, loved, and delicious!
This plan is designed to bring ease and joy to your kitchen while ensuring every bite is safe and satisfying. Let’s get cooking!

- Dress to Impress (Your Salads): Prep a homemade salad dressing for the week—simple, fresh, and oh-so-good. I also love keeping ranch and tzatziki stocked in the fridge for quick dipping and drizzling.
