A Healthy Weekly Meal Plan with a bunch of my fave summer dinners! This meal plan has breakfast, lunch, and 5 dinner ideas to make it a great week! 21 Day Fix Containers, WW points, and a weekly meal planning spreadsheet included, too.
Healthy Meal Plan
We are currently savoring our last couple weeks of summer over here, but I have seen many of you posting your kids back to school pictures already this week! Sending you all hugs (and some high fives too!) as you transition back to the craziness of the school year!
For the meal plan – my current produce obsession is peaches so we are having a crisp and some peach salsa! And of course still obsessing over zucchini recipes with Air Fryer Zucchini too! Speaking of zucchini, did you see my *NEW* One Pan Blueberry Baked Oatmeal with Zucchini? Soo easy and would totally work with this week’s meal plan if you wanted to try it!
This is my favorite time of year to make the Chicken and Veggie Soup. Double or triple batch it and freeze- you won’t be sorry!
For lunch, a Bento Box/Snack Tray seems like a solid option at this point in August – whether you are back to school or hanging onto summer, ain’t nobody got time to make lunch right now. It’s so versatile and customizable, and best of all- no cooking! Think: hard boiled eggs or rolled deli meat, raw veggies with hummus, and some fruit- so simple!

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!
You are in luck! I have 19 FREE and FULL 21 Day Fix Meal Plans for all of the calorie brackets ready to go for you!
