Take & Make Menu Plan: Ragin’ Cajun Recipes


Our menu plan this week features American/French cajun recipes from Louisiana.  We like to call them Ragin’ Cajun recipes, because you can adjust the spicy level to your liking.  Crank them up as fiery hot as you can stand or as mild as you need (for the kids)! 

Print out the free printable Take and Make Menu Plans each Sunday, which include:

  • A printable grocery shopping list of ingredients.  Print out the list, check off what you already have on hand, then take your shopping list to the store.
  • A dinner meal for each day. Click the name of the meal to print the recipe and directions.
