A Healthy Weekly Meal Plan with delicious dinners for colder weather. This plan has five dinners and a breakfast to help plan a week of comfort food the whole family will enjoy. Plus 21 Day Fix Containers, WW personal points, and a meal planning spreadsheet included, too.
Healthy Meal Plan
The word of the week here is germs. So many germs. So many tissues. And so many days with kids home from school. My Chicken Noodle Soup has been working overtime here and we are taking all the vitamin C and probiotics, and yet there have been more sick days than healthy days over the past couple of weeks. If you have any other recommendations to get us back on track health wise, I am listening! We are officially over it 🏳 😅.
Anyway, enough of that. On to this week’s meal plan! We are keeping with our theme of auditioning side dishes that you might want to include on your Thanksgiving menu next week. This week includes Healthy Sweet Potato Casserole and Warm Honey Roasted Butternut Squash Salad. In fact, the entire meal plan was based around these two dishes, and me not being able to wait until next week to eat them! You will for sure want to check out this How to Cut Butternut Squash hack to prep and dice your squash quickly and easily!
If you need a lunch idea – my *NEW* Instant Pot Carrot Ginger Soup (Vegan) would be a great option! (FIXers check your container counts since this lunch will only fit on certain days) OR right now I’m also loving salads with roasted squash, chickpeas, and walnuts with my apple cider vinaigrette.

When I meal plan I always start by planning my dinners. Then breakfast, then lunch. And finally, I fill in my snacks for the day with my remaining macros, points, or containers.

It’s still important to follow the 21 Day Fix plan on Saturdays and Sundays for optimal results, but you will likely have leftover meals and ingredients after following this healthy weekly meal plan. And, so, to eliminate food waste, take inventory of your fridge and pantry at the end of the week and create a plan for the weekend. Many people like to get some healthy takeout one night – think yummy salads with grilled protein or a slice of veggie pizza – and we have this helpful Healthy Weekend Meals post to help you even more!
