September Trim Healthy Mama Dinner Menu

September 1, 2023 Jennifer Overstreet

Welcome to my September Trim Healthy Mama Dinner Menu! 🍽️ This month is all about making mealtime enjoyable and stress-free, especially for those of us with picky eaters at home. I’ve curated a collection of delicious recipes that the whole family will love. The best part? These meals are quick to prepare, meaning more time to enjoy life outside the kitchen!

Why Choose This Menu?

As we transition into fall, I understand how important it is to keep meals simple and satisfying. Each recipe on this menu is designed to be family-approved and free of special ingredients, which means fewer trips to specialty stores! Just head to your local grocery store for everything you need.

If you enjoy Dreamfields pasta but struggle to find it locally, here’s a helpful tip: try placing an online order with Walmart for the best price. Prices on Amazon can be steep, but it pays to shop around!

Weekly Themes

To make your meal planning even easier, I’ve organized this month’s menu into themes:

Mondays: All about Crockpot Recipes – set it and forget it!
Tuesdays: Spice things up with Mexican Cuisine!
Fridays: Quick and easy Skillet Recipes – perfect for a busy end to the week.

Each recipe includes its corresponding fuel type, with a few being Fuel Pulls. For example, Firecracker Chicken is a fuel pull, allowing you to choose how you want to serve it. Feel free to swap any recipe with something your family loves—it’s all about making healthy eating enjoyable!

Quick Tip: When making mashed veggies, use only a few small potatoes and ensure they are well-drained after boiling. This will prevent the consistency from becoming too soft or runny. Remember, potatoes count as an E fuel, so keep your servings in check! Here is the link to my mashed veggies, they are a great way to get veggies in and add some carbs where needed. It has become a favorite with many families.
