You asked, we answered! Hundreds of Start TODAY members told us they wanted more healthy, balanced meal ideas to help them reach their health goals. This dietitian-designed meal plan gives you the flexibility to ease into healthy eating.
This week’s meals center around vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats, like extra virgin olive oil. But the theme is convenience, showing you how to nourish your body without spending endless hours in the kitchen. You’ll find many of our favorite easy staples, like eggs, tuna, canned beans, rotisserie chicken and low-sugar barbecue sauce. From a Greek Egg Scramble to a Barbecue Chicken Quinoa Salad to Sheet Pan Flounder and Turkey Bolognese, you’ll enjoy healthy meals that take little effort.
Here’s what you’ll need to do to make a week’s worth of nutritious meals. Spend about an hour making the egg scramble, sweet potato puree, Chickpea and Tuna Salad, and a batch of quinoa. Then, breakfasts and lunches can be assembled in minutes before you eat. Dinners are mainly sheet pan and one-pot meals, and most take less than 20 minutes of work. Enjoy!
