A 21 Day Fix Meal plan with light and fresh dinners that are perfect for warm weather. This meal plan is versatile and full of crowd pleasing dinners to make your week go smoothly! WW points and meal planning spreadsheet included, too. This post contains affiliate links for products I’m obsessed with.
I feel like I was JUST writing one of these emails and here we go – another week has passed- and it’s Friday. Again. Can summer slow down please? Also, curious – if you have school aged kiddos and/or if you are a teacher- when does school start again? We are the last week of August. I keep telling myself that we still have so much time 😅. We do, right?
Looking towards the Fall/BTS time, what can I do to help you through this transition? Fall is great for back to routine, but it’s also another busy time for families, especially with sports and activities. Reply to this email and let me know how we can help to serve you whether it’s another FULL meal plan or something else! Ok – enough talk about all of that because again – we have soooooo much time left. 😉
Onto the meal plan! For this week, we are featuring some zucchini favorites with Hibachi Chicken and Chicken Pad Thai Zoodles. For the grill (or air fryer) we have Chicken Satay with grilled pineapple and we are going quick and easy with Taco Salads and Healthy Instant Pot Baked Ziti! I am also drooling at the idea of Zucchini Fritters for breakfast! They are super yummy topped with Greek yogurt and Everything Bagel seasoning or paired with hard boiled eggs or turkey bacon for a little extra protein.
