Healthy Meal Plan
The name of the game this week is enjoying some summertime favorites! From using fresh garden zucchini and green beans, to burger bowls and pasta salad – I. CAN’T. WAIT!
Some tips for this meal plan: Baked Lemon Garlic Chicken is DELISH on the grill if you don’t want to heat up your oven! Also you can prep a double batch of the buffalo chicken filling and use it twice this week! I love when we can prep and cook once, but eat twice!
For lunch, after a little break from salads, it’s time for an easy Taco Salad that you can make with whatever your heart desires. Hidden Cauliflower Taco Meat is the perfect protein to put on top. Top them with a dollop of low fat Greek yogurt and either jarred salsa or Copy Cat Chipotle Pico de Gallo for an easy lunch!

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!
