Monday:
Crock-pot BBQ Chicken
Place chicken (one breast per person) in crockpot and cover well with your favorite BBQ sauce. Cook on high for 3-4 hours. Remove chicken, shred and return to crockpot. Cover with remaining sauce and keep on warm until you're ready to serve. Tastes great by itself or on a bun!
Green Beans and Onions (make enough for Monday and Tuesday)
Sprinkle green beans with salt and pepper and steam until tender. Meanwhile, saute one medium onion and add half to green beans before serving (reserve half of onion for rice recipe below).
Rice, Onions and Cranberries (make enough for Monday and Wednesday)
Cook rice as directed. Add half of sauteed onion and halved cranberries (or Craisins) while still hot.
Tuesday:
Turkey Burgers

Green Beans and Onions (leftovers from Monday's dinner)
Sweet Potato Cubes
Cut sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Drizzle liberally with olive oil and sprinkle with Kosher salt and nutmeg. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or so (done when you can easily stick a fork through).
Wednesday:
Salmon
When purchasing salmon, ask them to slice the skin off the bottom. Cut salmon into serving portions and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle generously with Emeril's Original Essence Seasoning. Drizzle olive oil on grill pan to prevent from sticking and turn stove to medium-high. Place salmon on pan once stove is heated (you should hear a sizzle). Cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until cooked halfway through, and flip. Cook for another 4-5 minutes. When salmon is finished, it should flake easily when a fork is pressed into the fish.
Crockpot Apples
Cut three Granny Smith apples in half. Place in crockpot and sprinkle lightly with cinnamon. Cook on low for 6 hours.
Rice, Onions, and Cranberries
Use leftovers from Monday's recipe.
I'm trying your chicken today! Thanks for all the great ideas. Your blog is really wonderful!
