A healthy whole food focused Paleo Weekly Meal Plan that includes six seasonal dinner recipes and one healthier dessert! Complete with a printable grocery list, these meal plans are designed to make meal prep approachable, easy and nourishing!
Hey there!
We’re back with another whole food-centric meal plan for your meal prepping enjoyment!
What have you been cooking (or not cooking) this summer?
We hit salads pretty hard at the beginning of summer and are now obsessed with grilling…specifically Grilled Steak with all the Stir Fry Vegetables. 🙂
Let’s talk about our meal prepping for the week! This week’s meal plan includes all the fresh and flavorful meals that are both easy to prepare and a joy to consume. We’re going with summer-centric produce and meals that come together quickly, easily and are ultra satisfying with plenty of protein.
I hope you love this week’s lineup! And I hope you’re in the mood for chicken!
Chicken recipes have been popular lately, which leads me to believe everyone’s enjoying chicken of all types. If you’re not on board with all the chicken this week, feel free to swap one of the chicken-centric recipes for my Mediterranean Salmon in Parchment Paper or my Chili Lime Baked Cod!
Also, if you haven’t had a chance to check out my Death By Chocolate Keto Brownies or my Keto Blueberry Crumble, I highly suggest you give them a try!!
And now for the food! Enjoy this week’s meal plan. As always, let me know if you have any questions or requests.
Healthy Weekly Meal Plan
SUNDAY:
Thai Chicken Chopped Salad – This vibrant, filling salad recipe is that feel-good meal that leaves you energized and happy. Thai Chicken Chopped Salad with crunchy cabbage, carrot, toasted cashews, and a delicious creamy sesame ginger peanut dressing is worthy of putting on repeat!
Special Diet: Paleo and low-carb. Make it keto by omitting the mango. If you’d like to make it Whole30, omit the pure maple syrup from the dressing.
Prep Ahead: Make the dressing up to 5 days in advance, and/or cook chicken up to 3 days ahead of time.
Substitutions/Notes: Use peanut butter for the dressing instead of almond butter. Use any type of leftover chicken for the salad. Add your favorite salad ingredients to use up what you have on hand. There is a decent amount of chicken on the menu this week, so feel free to swap it for Chili Lime Glazed Shrimp, Crispy Skin Salmon, or a different protein if you’d like.
MONDAY:
The Best Chicken Fajitas – No, really. These are the best chicken fajitas – citrusy with a hint of heat and they make the BEST leftovers! Leftover Chicken Fajita Soup (coming later this week) is pretty amazing!
Special Diet Notes: Recipe is paleo, Whole30 friendly, and low carb.
Prep Ahead: Chicken can marinate for up to 24 hours.
Substitutions/Notes: If you don’t have coconut aminos you can substitute worcestershire sauce
TUESDAY:
Unstuffed Cabbage Bowls – Unstuffed Cabbage Bowls with ground beef, onion, garlic, tomato sauce, and green cabbage are deconstructed cabbage rolls…in a bowl! A simple yet flavorful and satisfying healthy dinner made in one pot in under an hour and is perfect for meal prep!
Special Diet Notes: Recipe is paleo, whole30, keto, and low-carb. Make it AIP by using a “nomatto” tomato sauce.
Prep Ahead: No need to prep ahead as the recipe comes together relatively quickly in one shot.
Substitutions/Notes: Replace the ground beef with ground turkey or chicken.
WEDNESDAY:
Tropical Shrimp Ceviche – The pineapple and mango chunks give this shrimp ceviche a fun, sweet burst of flavor. Like you’re in the tropics. (Wishful thinking here in Idaho.) We ate these with some grain-free tortilla chips, but it’s also good on a fish taco bowl or on a taco salad!
Special Diet Notes: Recipe is paleo and Whole30 friendly.
Prep Ahead: You can make this 1-2 days in advance.
Substitutions/Notes: You can swap out the pineapple or mangoes for fresh peaches if you like.
THURSDAY:
Baked Lemon Garlic Rosemary Chicken – A simple, unpretentious recipe that exudes a fancy vibe while requiring minimal effort, Baked Garlic Lemon Rosemary Chicken has incredible flavor and turns out fall-off-the-bone exquisite! Serve it with your favorite side dishes, like Lemon Garlic Rosemary Rice or Crispy Sweet Potato Fries.
Special Diet Notes: Paleo, whole30, keto and AIP!
Prep Ahead: The chicken can be marinated up to 24 hours in advance.
Substitutions/Notes: Serve the chicken with your choice of sides.
FRIDAY:
Leftover Chicken Fajita Soup – Make a double batch of The Best Chicken Fajitas so you can whip up this Leftover Chicken Fajita Soup on a busy weeknight!
Special Diet Notes: Recipe is paleo & Whole30 friendly.
Prep Ahead: This soup comes together quickly, so no prep is needed.
Substitutions/Notes: If you’d rather use your fajita leftovers for a fajita salad, don’t worry about getting the extra soup ingredients.
DESSERT:
Paleo Blueberry Crumb Bars – Delicious fruit-forward crumb bars made grain-free, refined sugar-free and dairy-free using almond flour, coconut oil and pure maple syrup. A lovely healthy dessert recipe for berry season!
Special Diet Notes: This recipe is vegan and paleo. It can easily be made keto by using sugar-free granulated sweetener instead of pure maple syrup.
Prep Ahead: No advance prep needed…this dessert comes together quickly!
Substitutions/Notes: Swap the almond flour with hazelnut flour (don’t use coconut flour), or use sugar-free sweetener to make the recipe low-carb/keto. As an alternative, make my Keto Strawberry Crumb Bars.
