The behaviour of jeder is well discribed herehere. If you don't understand everything there just look at the first table.

According to that, jeden is the accusative form of jeder, not the dative.

So you can't decide in general if it is jeden Abend or jeder Abend, it depends on the function of Abend in this sentence: is it subject, dative object, accusative object?

Here are some examples:

Every evening is the same.
Jeder Abend ist gleich.

Every evening we do the same.
Jeden Abend machen wir das Gleiche.
An jedem Abend machen wir das Gleiche.
