A Healthy Meal Plan with family favorite dinners to kick off the fall season! This meal plan has breakfast, lunch, and 5 dinners to make it an easy week in the kitchen! Plus 21 Day Fix Containers, WW points, and a weekly meal planning spreadsheet included, too.

Healthy Meal Plan
I can’t believe it’s officially Fall next week! Today was super warm here so it’s making it extra hard to believe!
Despite the warm temps, I’m ready to officially welcome Fall with a yummy soup and some quick and easy reader favorites on this week’s meal plan! Salsa Verde Chicken Soup is so filling (thanks to veggies and lean protein) and full of flavor! I’m making a double batch to freeze and use for lunches!
With all of our fall sports, Easy Italian Chicken Skillet and Sausage Broccoli Pasta are no brainers since they are on the table in 20 minutes!
Lastly, we’re taking a short cut on lunch prep by using a store bought rotisserie chicken! If you want to make your own it’s crazy easy though – try my Air Fryer Whole Chicken recipe for rotisserie chicken right at home!
Have a delicious week!

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!
