7 Day Healthy Meal Plan
I hope everyone is staying warm–it has been so cold!!! Check out my soup and chili recipes to help keep you warm!
Check out my new meal plan series in Relish +, One Pan Meals! These simple one pot, one pan, one skillet recipes are meals made entirely in one cooking vessel from start to finish. Perfect for busy weekdays, these meals are quick and easy. And this is the last week of my partnership with Home Chef, you can expect Basil-Parmesan Crusted Salmon, Peruvian-Inspired Steak with Lomo Saltado Sauce, and Crispy Chicken Schnitzel Dinner on the menu.

I’m also excited to share the Skinnytaste Ultimate Meal Planner is now available! The 52 week spiral bound meal planner has weekly meal planning grids you can tear out and put on your fridge if you wish, a 12-week meal plan, 30 (15 new) recipes, and tear-out grocery lists.

I’m including links to my recipe builder, see the orange button to the print recipe button that says my personal points. Click on that and it takes you to the Weight Watchers website where you can see the WW points and add it to your day (US only, you must be logged into your account).

About The Meal Plan
If you’re new to my meal plans, I’ve been sharing these free, 7-day flexible healthy meal plans (you can see my previous meal plans here) that are meant as a guide, with plenty of wiggle room for you to add more food, coffee, beverages, fruits, snacks, dessert, wine, etc. or swap recipes out for meals you prefer, you can search for recipes by course in the index. You should aim for around 1500 calories* per day.
There’s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You’ll dine out less often, waste less food and you’ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.
Lastly, if you’re on Facebook join my Skinnytaste Facebook Community where everyone’s sharing photos of recipes they are making, you can join here. I’m loving all the ideas everyone’s sharing! If you wish to get on the email list, you can subscribe here so you never miss a meal plan!
