A Healthy Weekly Meal Plan based on a full meal plan that has crazy easy meal prep and no brainier ideas! This meal plan has breakfast, lunch, and 5 dinner recipes to help you plan a busy week! Plus 21 Day Fix Containers, WW points, and a meal planning spreadsheet included, too.
Healthy Meal Plan
Confession: I LOVE teachers! To show my gratitude I volunteer to coordinate the Teacher Appreciation events at my kids’ schools. Aka the reason I’ve been MIA on socials and the blog this week – I’ve been in prep mode! I can’t wait to see it all come together next week! And a HUGE thank you to all of you teachers and staff out there for your patience and selflessness to teach and care for our kids every day!
Now, onto the meal plan. Since I’m going to be spending a lot of brain power on TA week, I need a super simple meal plan. Like crazy simple. Think dump and go recipes and 20 minute one skillet dinners. This is my gift to myself AND YOU. Because ain’t nobody got time for complicated meal plans in May.
This weekly meal plan is based off of Full Meal Plan Vol. 5, so if you want to have all of your meals planned out for you, feel free to follow that full plan instead!
If celebrating Cinco de Mayo is your vibe, feel free to swap around days on this plan and use the Salsa Lime Chicken Bowls or Easy Salsa Verde Pork (yummy in tacos too) meal on Monday instead!
Lastly, don’t miss the *NEW* No Bake Carrot Cake Cheesecake Cups that are making their meal plan debut! Have you tried them yet? What other high protein breakfast cheesecake varieties should I test out?
Have a delicious week!

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!
