July 27 to 31, 2026: What to Cook This Week

Looking for a few simple and delicious dinner ideas for the week? We’ve got you covered! Check out these five weeknight recipes to try, from grilled citrus chicken to burgers bursting with Moroccan flavours, each one tastier than the last.

Monday: Grilled Citrus Chicken

This tasty grilled chicken recipe is easy to make and requires little prep time. Let the chicken marinate in a mixture of garlic, citrus juice, spices and honey, and then cook on the grill. Serve the meat with a salad for a bright and refreshing weeknight meal. Bonus if you enjoy it out on the patio!

Tuesday: Fettuccine with Anchovy, Tuna and Cherry Tomatoes (Pasta Al Tonno)

On summer evenings, opt for a fresh and light pasta dish like this recipe. Canned tuna and anchovies from the pantry give character to this sauce, as do the seasonal cherry tomatoes. With a sprinkling of parsley for colour and toasted breadcrumbs for crunch, it’s a meal that tastes as good as a seaside vacation feels.

Wednesday: Pork Tenderloins with Grilled Corn Coleslaw

In this ideal recipe following a busy day at work, you’ll adore this juicy pork tenderloin with a brown sugar and chipotle rub for a bit of sweet heat. Serve it on a bed of coleslaw with grilled corn and you’ve got a meal the whole family will love.

Thursday: Meal-Sized Grilled Asparagus and Silken Tofu Salad

This weeknight salad, consisting of lettuce, asparagus, radishes and pieces of silken tofu, is ready in a flash. With an herbaceous honey-mustard dressing that also boasts a light crunch from the sunflower seeds, this fresh and delicious meal will surely be on repeat in your kitchen.

Friday: Moroccan-Style Burgers

During warm weather, nothing can beat a burger; but instead of your usual, how about a recipe with flavours that are reminiscent of a Moroccan tagine? Seasoned with cumin and turmeric, top the patties with harissa mayonnaise, grilled zucchini and onions, as well as a generous helping of fresh mint. It’s a dish in a class of its own and that begs to be made again and again.
