We’re back with a brand new meal plan!

We’re addressing summer recipes to keep you feeling cool and refreshed yet comfortably satiated.

This week’s meal plan is all about easy comfort food! Trust me, you’re going to love the simplicity and the deliciousness of all these flavorful meals!

Do note we have a couple of main entrees on this week’s meal plan, so you can always serve them with your favorite side dishes. I typically go with my Big Batch Roasted Vegetables, steamed rice, or Mediterranean Chickpea Salad, or Roasted Asparagus with Parmesan and Lemon.

Also, if you didn’t catch my 3-Ingredient No-Bake Banana Oatmeal Cookies or 5-Ingredient Chocolate Date Energy Balls, they’ve been big hits and make for lovely healthy snacks!

And now for the food! I hope you enjoy this week’s meal plan. As always, let me know if you have any questions or requests.
