This Week's Plan: Featuring Mushrooms
1 / 7
Sunday: Creamy Sausage-Mushroom Rigatoni
In Rome, we dined near the Pantheon. The amazing restaurant is now history, but its memory lives on in this tasty pasta with mushrooms and sausage. —Barbara Roozrokh, Brookfield, Wisconsin
Monday: Mushroom Burgers
Ready to turn over a new burger? I guarantee no one will be missing the beef after tasting these vegetarian burgers. They're moist, tender and full of flavor. —Denise Hollebeke, Penhold, Alberta
Tuesday: Baked Chicken and Mushrooms
I made up this dish years ago, and it still remains the family's favorite healthy baked chicken recipes. It's a fast weeknight meal, but the fresh mushrooms and sherry make it special enough for a weekend dinner party. —Lise Prestine of South Bend, Indiana
Wednesday: Chili-Lime Mushroom Tacos
I used to make this dish with beef, but substituting with portobella mushrooms turned it into my family's vegetarian favorite. It's quick, nutritious, low fat and tasty. —Greg Fontenot, The Woodlands, Texas
Thursday: Chicken Quinoa Salad
We pile our favorite gyro fixin’s into nutritious quinoa bowls. Our local gyro guy has a cool but spicy sauce that transforms his sandwiches. It’s a must here, too. —Leah Lyon, Ada, Oklahoma
Friday: Slow-Cooker Memphis-Style Ribs
After my dad and I had dinner at the legendary Rendezvous Restaurant, I was inspired to create a slow-cooked version of tasty dry-rub Memphis ribs. Smoked paprika in the rub mimics the flavor the ribs would get from grilling over hot coals. —Matthew Hass, Franklin, Wisconsin
Saturday: Farmers Market Enchiladas
These vegetarian enchiladas use a lot of garden favorites in a quick weeknight meal. Feel free to substitute whatever vegetables you have from your garden—yellow summer squash, eggplant and corn all taste great here, too. —Elisabeth Larsen, Pleasant Grv, Utah Find more 7-day meal plans.https://www.tasteofhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Lemon-Basil-Grilled-Shrimp-Couscous_exps72137_TH143192B02_07_8bC_RMS-2-348x348.jpg 348w, https://www.tasteofhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Lemon-Basil-Grilled-Shrimp-Couscous_exps72137_TH143192B02_07_8bC_RMS-2-700x700.jpg 700w, https://www.tasteofhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Lemon-Basil-Grilled-Shrimp-Couscous_exps72137_TH143192B02_07_8bC_RMS-2-400x400.jpg 400w, https://www.tasteofhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Lemon-Basil-Grilled-Shrimp-Couscous_exps72137_TH143192B02_07_8bC_RMS-2-180x180.jpg 180w, https://www.tasteofhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Lemon-Basil-Grilled-Shrimp-Couscous_exps72137_TH143192B02_07_8bC_RMS-2-10x10.jpg 10w, https://www.tasteofhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Lemon-Basil-Grilled-Shrimp-Couscous_exps72137_TH143192B02_07_8bC_RMS-2.jpg 1200w" title="Sunday: Lemon-Basil Grilled Shrimp & Couscous">

Sunday: Lemon-Basil Grilled Shrimp & Couscous
The basil and lemon in this dish complement each other so nicely. Using fresh ingredients really makes a big difference. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho
Monday: Caprese Chicken
I love a Caprese salad of tomatoes, basil and cheese, so why not try a chicken caprese? You can grill this dish, but my family agrees it’s juicier straight from the oven. —Dana Johnson, Scottsdale, Arizona
Tuesday: Gnocchi with Pesto Sauce
Perk up gnocchi and vegetables with a flavorful pesto sauce. If you don't have pine nuts for the topping, skip or substitute any nut you like. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen
Wednesday: Tomato-Basil Steak
We grow the basil and bell peppers I use in this dish. It's easy to prepare, yet so rich and delicious. —Sheryl Little, Sherwood, Arkansas
Thursday: Grilled Pesto, Ham and Provolone Sandwiches
These Italian-style sandwiches are loaded with zesty flavors. To lighten them a little, use fat-free mayo. We serve them with minestrone or a crisp salad. —Priscilla Yee, Concord, California
Friday: Lemon Basil Salmon
It was my husband, Steve, who came up with this easy, foil-packet recipe for flaky, fork-tender Lemon Basil Salmon. We eat a lot of salmon and Steve likes trying out different herbs and spices on our food. This recipe's a winner! —Marianne Bauman, Modesto, California
Saturday: Grilled Zucchini & Pesto Pizza
In the great outdoors, we surprise our fellow campers who don't think it's possible to have standout pizza in the backwoods. This one with zucchini proves our point! —Jessee Arriaga, Reno, Nevada Find more 7-day meal plans.July Meal Plans
