Paleo Meal Plan – Week 22

A Healthy Meal Plan with six dinner recipes, one healthier dessert, and a printable grocery list for easy meal prep! This nutrient-dense whole food meal plan is helpful support to a busy lifestyle.

Healthy comfort food, here we come!

This month’s healthy paleo meal plan is all about meals that make you feel cozy and satisfied while leaving you feeling energized. 

Plenty of variety and color right here! This may just be one of my favorite meal plans yet, because it incorporates so many types of produce, a huge array of flavors, and plenty of protein options.

If you’re looking for tasty side dishes to go alongside any of these meals, I recommend my Sautéed Brussel Sprouts with Butter and Garlic or my Balsamic Roasted Vegetables

Also, if you didn’t catch my Paleo Cranberry Orange Vegan Scones I posted last week, they are an absolute hit for breakfast, brunch, or dessert!

And now for the food!

I hope you enjoy this week’s meal plan. Let me know if you have any questions or requests for future meal plans by dropping a comment below.

Special Diet: This healthy soup recipe is paleo and whole30. Make it low-carb by omitting the potatoes. You can also omit the onion to make it low-FODMAP.
Prep Ahead: The soup comes together in a flash! No advance prep is needed
Substitutions/Notes: Swap out any of the veggies for your favorites. Cauliflower, broccoli, and bok choy work great. You can use ground beef, Italian sausage, or ground chicken instead of ground turkey if you’d like.

MONDAY:

Chipotle Copycat Barbacoa Beef – This deeply flavorful, tender shredded beef is a copycat version of Chipotle’s Barbacoa Beef! I included instructions for both slow cooker and Instant Pot in the recipe notes.

Prep Ahead: Nothing needs to be prepared ahead of time.
Substitutions/Notes: I don’t recommend swapping out the coconut flour for anything else, as the recipe is designed to accommodate the massive absorbency of coconut flour. The rest of the recipe will need to be changed when using a different flour. For almond flour only, follow my Almond Flour Coffee Cake recipe.
