Apple Crisp with Brown Sugar Streusel Topping
Welcome to my Weekly Menu Plan!
Cooler temperatures are here! If you call 80 degrees cooler?!
I LOVE Fall and a little change of the seasons.
In California, we are still able to grill out, but I like the idea of using the slow cooker and Instant Pot. Something about the smell in the air when you walk in the door makes our home smell like Fall!
FREE FALL Menu Printables are included below to help you plan your weekly and monthly menu plans. I have also included a Master Grocery List. Check them out below.
Let’s see what’s cooking this week!
Sunday
My Instant Pot is my greatest kitchen purchase. I was hesitant to use it because I don’t use a lot of gadgets. This is definitely not a gadget. It is easy to use and clean up is quick.
Bake Eat Repeat has the right idea for simple, delicious chili for these cooler nights.

Monday
Meatless Mondays are a step in a healthier direction. It is less expensive than meat and still fills you up.
