Dinner Planner – Week of December 9, 2024

dinner collage of nine dishes

For those of you who take my monthly online cooking class, the new December class is up and the recipes are designed to be holiday-worthy! I’ve already taught all these recipes in person and they received rave reviews!!  Just an admin note, I always upload the new class on the 1st of the month, but when the 1st is a holiday or on a weekend, I may upload the class the following day.  

I may or may not be alone on this but I have yet to buy one gift (and I even published a gift guide on Substack!!) nor have I put away all my serving pieces from Thanksgiving.  Send help!! 

Here’s your dinner planner for the week:

Meatless Monday: Quinoa Stuffed Acorn Squash from Vegan Huggs + sauteed swiss chard with dried apricots and pine nuts 

Tuesday: Crunchy Kale Salad Recipe with Almond Vinaigrette with protein of choice (I like rotisserie chicken or roasted salmon)

Wednesday: Porcini, Greens, and Bean Soup + Parmesan biscuits from Leite’s Culinaria

Thursday: Tasty turkey burgers + Grain-Free Cauliflower Tabbouleh 

Friday: Chicken adobo, steamed rice, garlicky broccoli  

Saturday brunch: Slow cooker apple pie steel cut oats + vanilla and chocolate chia seed pudding (I’m doing the vanilla) 

Sunday: Cod Acqua Pazza + Radicchio Salad with Olives and Parmesan

I have LOVED seeing all your creations of my recipes on Instagram. If you make any of my recipes, please tag me @pamelasalzman #pamelasalzman so I can check them out! I have a free Monday newsletter with my thoughts, new recipes, and things I’m loving lately. Subscribe here!
