7 day healthy meal plan

With Easter being this Sunday, I already have some great ideas on the menu, but you can also try Phyllo Crusted Asparagus Feta Tarts for starters, Scalloped Potato Gratin as a side, or my Apricot Rum Glazed Ham for mains. I wish you a good start to Passover and a Happy Easter, may you all enjoy the time with your family and loved ones!

With food prices soaring, many of us are having to adjust, scale back, and/or get more creative with our meals. One of the absolute BEST ways to stay on a budget and maintain healthy eating habits is with the MEAL PLAN.
