During Back to School you need some quick meals that will please everyone and get your dinner routine established again. This Back to School Meal Plan follows the 21 Day Fix and Weight Watchers plans to keep you on track while getting the family back on track too!
Back to school.
You’re either dreading it, or rejoicing that the season here! I’ve told you before, I’m not totally sure which camp I’m in. Mostly sad, especially after such a fun family vacation last week!
We spent the week in Delaware and explored all over the place. We enjoyed pool time, beach time, and had fun on the boardwalk! Of course we ate delicious food, too! #swimmingindrawnbutter
Within 20 minutes of arriving back home, my daughter’s friends were knocking on the door, asking to play. Don’t get me wrong- it’s so cute! But a big reminder of how old she’s getting and how numbered these family vacays may be.
So yeah, I’m hanging on to this last full week of summer before she starts school!
Many of your kids are already back so this week’s meal plan is full of quick, crowd pleasing meals to help get the school/practice/activity routine rolling!
Good luck, no matter where you fall with your Back to School feelings!

So thankful for you and the awesome recipes you put together each week. It’s my Sunday morning meal planning go-to. Especially today because this week my first kiddo starts kindergarten so I’m a little nervous about creating healthy lunches and easy dinners as we adjust to the school year. Thanks for this!
