WEEK 15: Grill EVERYTHING

---

 Honey-Garlic Chicken Thighs

Grilled Fish Tacos

Italian Sausage Pasta

Grilled Chicken Salad 

Hamburger Bowls 

Sausage & Chicken Skewers 

Week 15 is all about firing up the grill and keeping dinners simple, fresh, and fast. This menu leans into warm-weather cooking with grilled proteins, vegetables, and a mix of hearty bowls, salads, and handheld favorites. You’ll reuse proteins across meals, keep prep minimal, and let the grill do most of the work.

As always, these six dinners are designed to feed four, reuse proteins where it makes sense, and keep weeknight cooking efficient without sacrificing flavor.

Grilled Honey-Garlic Chicken Thighs with Grilled Vegetables
Sweet, savory chicken thighs with charred seasonal vegetables. This meal sets you up with extra grilled chicken for later in the week.

Grilled Fish Tacos with Cilantro-Lime Slaw
Light, fresh fish tacos topped with crunchy cabbage slaw and bright citrus flavor — a quick grill-to-table dinner.

Grilled Italian Sausage and Pepper Pasta
Juicy grilled sausage, peppers, and onions tossed with pasta for a hearty, comforting meal that still feels summery.

Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette
Leftover grilled chicken gets new life in a big, fresh salad with crisp vegetables and a tangy balsamic dressing.

Grilled Beef Burger Bowls with Sweet Potato Fries
All the flavors of a classic burger — without the bun — served bowl-style with roasted sweet potato fries.
