Hey Reader,

May already… which feels like a bit of a fresh start over here.

The weather’s better, routines feel a little more settled, and I’m way more into simple dinners that don’t take a ton of effort because baseball season is about to kick my a** lol

Psst. It's the taco skillet that saved me ona busy night! I rolled it into wraps and we ate int he van lol

Meal Prep Tips

  • BBQ Chicken Legs: Make sure to leave space between some of the chicken legs and the slow cooker as you place them in so that you can put water in without removing all of the sauce.
  • Chicken Taco Skillet: You can easily use chicken breasts for the gluten-free skillet dinner. Make sure to chop them small so that they cook evenly. They may not give off as much juice as thighs will. Sometimes I use leftover chicken too!
  • Air Fryer Salmon Poke Bowl: You need your salmon to be thawed before popping it into the air fryer. You can either pull frozen salmon out the night before and pop it in the fridge or thaw the fillets in cold water for about 30 minutes.
  • Sheet Pan Meatloaf: This one takes some prep but it's worth it! If you want a stickier glaze on top, broil everything for 1-2 minutes but keep a close eye on the meatloaf and veggies so that they don’t burn.
  • Chicken Noodle Soup: You can cook the soup for about 3-4 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low. Since you’re not adding the noodles until the end, both work.

Recipe Customizations
All of the recipes are already dairy and gluten-free. I use leftover drumsticks for the taco skillet and leftover salmon for lunch the next day!
