7 Day Healthy Meal Plan (May 29-June 4)
As we fire up the grill this weekend, let’s not forget the perfect side dish! Try my Easy Grilled Potatoes or Mexican Grilled Corn Salad and don’t forget these hot dog onions– a must if you are grilling hot dogs! End it with something red, white and blue like these easy Red White and Blue Fruit Skewers with Cheesecake Yogurt Dip. Don’t forget to take a moment to acknowledge and remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom, we are forever grateful.
With grocery prices soaring, many of us are having to adjust, scale back and/or get more creative with our meals. One of the absolute BEST ways to stay within a budget and maintain healthy eating habits is to MEAL PLAN.

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. Depending on your goals, you should aim for at least 1500 calories* per day. There’s no one size fits all, this will range by your goals, your age, weight, etc.
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!
