French Onion Pot Roast

Recipe By: Cooking For My Soul

Rating: 5 stars from 3 reviews

Serve with mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach

Well, in typical fashion, I didn’t get this version cooking on time so I had to pivot right to my favorite kitchen appliance… my Instant Pot! I still want to try the stovetop version, so I thought I’d still include it here along with the IP recipe so you can choose which works best for you. The IP version was tasty and a nice change from typical pot roast. I’ll definitely make it again!

Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup

Recipe By: Food & Wine

Rating: 5 stars from 54 reviews

My 17yo requested this again. With just weeks left until she graduates and the reality of her leaving for college drawing closer, I’ll absolutely indulge her… even if it’s not the most ideal meal.

I still do my thing on these types of meals. Making the soup allows me to control the ingredients - and this one is EASY. Just skip the croutons since it’s paired with grilled cheese, and add ham or turkey to the sandwiches for added protein. Note: You’ll need a stick or regular blender to finish it off the soup... but it’s worth it!

Creamy Chicken Florentine

Recipe By: Salt & Lavender

Rating: 4.96 from 83 votes

Served with: rice and salad with lemon vinaigrette (double for later)

Tip: Don’t overcook the chicken like someone did. 👋 Like the author says, brown it, remove it so you can make the sauce, then put it back in the sauce to finish cooking and absorb the yummy flavor.s And yes, this already has spinach in it, but have the salad, too. We need more veg in our lives!

Buttered Honey Mustard Salmon

Serve with rice and steamed or roasted broccoli

Last time I made this my husband asked me to never make salmon any other way again. Second time around… SAME. It’s not overly sweet like many of the glazes out there. And the butter… yeah, it does make this better. If you or those you’re cooking for don’t usually love salmon, this might just change your mind.

Serve with a salad w lemon vinaigrette

Good ol’ spaghetti… it just hits the spot sometimes, doesn’t it? Reminder: this is an Instant Pot recipe. A quick Google search led me to this highly rated and seemingly easy alternative. Or use your own… just make sure to include the meat for protein!

I’m a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Functional Blood Chemistry Specialist. As you might guess, food’s kind of my thing. But I’m also a busy mom on a budget, so meal planning has been a sanity-saver for me to save time and money.

I’ve been answering the question What’s For Dinner? for my own family for years now. So I figured why not answer it for others who ask the same questionevery week with frustration. And so What’s Fork Dinner? was born.
