This isn't my menu this year, but my simple Shavous menu from a few years ago:
Challah and dips served at all meals.

Night 1: Blintzes
Salmon Salad
Pasta with Vodka Sauce
Potato Salad

Day 1: Blintzes
Salmon Salad
Pasta with Vodka Sauce
(quiche maybe)
potato salad

Night 2: Fresh London Broil(this was from a year where it wasn't Friday night so it was super fresh, but you could replace with made before Shabbos)
Roast Potatoes
Southwestern Chicken Salad (green salad with chicken)

Day 2:
Deli Roll
Southwestern Chicken Salad again
Potato Kugel

This year is definitely going to be very simple for us, currently in 'bidud' here in Israel until after Shavuos since we just returned from abroad. I plan to basically just use what I have on hand rather than bothering people too much to buy ingredients for us, there aren't any supermarkets that do online deliveries around here.

Our meals will look something like this:

Challah
chicken soup
meat
rice
green beans

I’m laughing because simple in my house growing up looked like this: bagels, lox and cream cheese for one meal, omelets for another, pizza for another, soup and challah for another. Simple is all relative. Your menu looks great

How in the world are you calling this menu simple?

We're having
Nights:
Chicken soup from the freezer
Kugel from the freezer

Shavous Day: pizza, iced coffee, maybe salad, and bought dessert
Shabbos day: cholent

And I don't even consider this simple. If it were up to me we'd have cereal and milk for most meals. Your menu is in no way simple, pat yourself on the back a bit.

I think she was trying to impress us with her claim that it’s simple 😉

So far I only prepared the milchig kiddush, nothing for the actual meals...

I made cheese cake (will top with blueberries and raspberries), mud cake, tiramisu, cheese blintzes and chocolate ganache cake.

Probably after that, nobody will really want to eat much else so I think we'll keep it light.

2nd day /shabbos will just be regular shabbos menu, maybe with an extra kugel and nicer desert.

Op, your menu sounds delicious, I wish we would eat a dairy seude.
