A Healthy Meal Plan to get you through this busy time of year! Not to mention, you can spend Mother’s Day with your favorite people, instead of spending Sunday meal prepping in the kitchen, if you don’t want to! Plus 21 Day Fix Containers, WW points, and a meal planning spreadsheet included, too.
Healthy Meal Plan
With this weekend being Mother’s Day, I have a feeling you might need some easy meals this week! Whether you are celebrating with your mom, busy being a mom, or struggling with the emotions of the day, getting a little break from meal prep is for sure in order, right? This is my gift to you!
So these meals require virtually no weekend prep and you can still have dinner on the table super fast. And definitely don’t sleep on the *NEW* Crockpot Chicken Enchilada Casserole on Tuesday!
As far as the breakfast for the week, we chose Mini French Toast Casserole Cups (or sub the Cinnamon Bun kind!) because they are perfect for little hands to prep – and very easy to double so you can enjoy them on Sunday and for the week as breakfast.
Going along with the no-prep theme, we thought making adult lunchables/snack boxes would be a fun idea for lunches. Use whatever container combination that fits for you. These save me all summer long when I am carting lunches to the pool for myself (gotta keep myself from the snack stand fries somehow!).

We are working on converting each recipe on the site to the new WW points system. Some recipes still have a link to find your personal points, while others have the points listed. In both cases, if you go to the recipe card on each blog post you will find the WW points info in the “notes” section. Thank you for bearing with us while we work on adapting to the new system!

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.
Healthy Snack Ideas | 21 Day Fix Snacks this post is a great way to get ideas for the containers, points, or macros you have leftover after you plan the rest of your day!
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!
