July 21 to 25, 2025: What to Cook This Week

What’s for dinner? We’re answering the famous question with beefy lettuce wraps, grilled chicken and more for a delicious week ahead. You’ll want to add these to your rotation all season long.

Monday: Brown Rice Bowl with Lentils, Carrots and Grapes

We say everything tastes better in a bowl! In this recipe, we combine colours and textures for a super-satisfying and healthful dish. We particularly like the combination of veggies with the sweet pop of grapes for a surprising fruity side. Best of all? It requires no cooking.

Tuesday: Green Mango and Spicy Beef Lettuce Wraps

Spicy beef is wrapped in a crisp lettuce leaf and topped with refreshing mango in this Asian-inspired recipe. Everyone will definitely enjoy building their own wrap.

Wednesday: Sumac Chicken with Marinated Cucumbers

Meet your new favourite chicken recipe! The chicken breast is coated in a sumac and harissa marinade before grilling, so you get a wonderful spicy, tangy and citrusy piece of meat. Paired with a refreshing side of marinated cucumber, it’s the perfect summertime dinner.

Thursday: Pasta Salad with Avocado and Tuna

Want to use that can of tuna a bit differently? Sure, tuna salad sandwiches are nice, but we suggest adding it to pasta for an extra protein kick. Along with a mayonnaise and avocado dressing, crunchy bell pepper and peppery arugula, it definitely takes your usual summertime pasta salad up a notch.

Friday: Sweet Potato and Roast Pork on Toast

Open-faced sandwiches on a Friday night? Yes, please! Slices of sweet potato and roasted pork tenderloin are served on crisp ciabatta, and topped with a fresh salad with peppery arugula and tart green apples. It’s the perfect marriage of textures and flavours.
