7 Day Healthy Weekly Meal Plan

We’re back with another healthy weekly meal plan for January!

You may notice that my meals are pretty repetitive for breakfast and lunch. I do this purposely because it’s easier for me to plan and prep.

Less planning and less prep makes it easier for me to stick to it and it also means less ingredients to buy at the store each week.

I also prep a batch of hard boiled eggs on Sunday afternoon. That way they’re already cooked and ready to go throughout the week.

Bake the pumpkin muffins while you’re making the eggs!

Healthy Snacks

I prefer grab-and-go snacks and have plenty on hand for busy afternoons. I don’t like to prep a ton of snacks ahead of time because sometimes, I’m just not hungry for a snack.

This is what I like to have on hand:

  • Dannon Light & Fit Non-Fat Vanilla Greek Yogurt (80 calories and 12g protein)
  • Fresh Berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries
  • Clementines or Seedless Mandarin Oranges
  • Bananas
  • Snack Size Bags of LesserEvil Himalayan Pink Salt Organic Popcorn (100 calories/bag)
  • Protein Shakes – I add half of a shake to my afternoon coffee in place of any milk or sugar. My favorite is Fairlife Salted Caramel. 
  • Baby Carrots
  • Celery Sticks
  • Mini Cucumbers
  • Mini Sweet Peppers
  • Sugar Snap Peas
  • Hummus
  • Low Fat Cottage Cheese
