    August 5-Day Meal Plan

    I'm sharing an August 5-Day Meal Plan with five awesome dinner ideas, plus a drink, breakfast, and dessert. They're all perfect for the height of summer. I hope you love it.

    August 5-Day Meal Plan with tomato mozzarella salad

    What's for dinner?

    Roasted Tomato & Mozzarella Salad with bread

    Roasted Tomato & Mozzarella Salad - You'll need to turn the oven on for this, but you can roast the tomatoes ahead of time, so do them in the morning before it gets too hot if that's a concern for you.

    Peanut Butter & Jelly Burger

    Peanut Butter & Jelly Burger - Fire up the grill for the most awesome burger I've created to date. It sounds weird, but it's totally awesome. Keep things easy and serve with your favorite chips.

    Crunchy Lemon Chicken | How to Be Awesome on $20 a Day

    Crunchy Lemon Chicken - Pound your chicken flat for quick-cooking so you don't have to slave over a hot stove. Serve this with Maple Glazed Carrots or a crisp side salad. Bonus points if you eat it outside.

    5-Ingredient Egg Tortilla Pie | How to Be Awesome on $20 a Day

    Egg Tortilla Pie - This recipe is quick cooking and endlessly customisable. It works for any time of day, and it's nice and light for those summer days when it's too hot to eat.

    Italian Grilled Cheese | How to Be Awesome on $20 a Day

    Italian Grilled Cheese - Get yourself some lovely summer anipasti and create a lovely little spread that people can pick at. Let this sandwich be the star of the show. If you have a gas grill, you could totally cook this outside.

    What else are we eating?

    Blueberry Muffins

    Homemade Blueberry Muffins - Make your morning sweet and simple with some good tea or coffee, a bit of yogurt and a fluffy muffin.

    Mint Limeade

    Mint Limeade - Make up a big pitcher to sip all day. Make sure you have plenty of ice.

    Earl Grey with Lemon Ice Cream - There's never a wrong time for ice cream, but August is possibly the best time.
