A Healthy Meal Plan with ideas to prep on Memorial Day Weekend plus leftovers! This meal plan has breakfast, lunch, and 5 dinners with minimal prep to get you through the holiday week! 21 Day Fix Containers, WW points, and a meal planning spreadsheet included, too.
Healthy Meal Plan
If you have a long weekend this weekend, I hope you enjoy it! The weather looks amazing here, so that will definitely help us get into the summer spirit!
Whenever we have extra time at home, we end up baking something. If you are like me, then the breakfast Berry Crisp will be a great use of your extra time and a yummy meal prep breakfast! It’s a great one for the kids to help with too!
This week’s meals are once again super easy…we are winding down here, but each day is still busy and activity filled.
SO if you have a super crazy week here are two shortcuts: this week’s meal plan calls for Air Fryer Chicken Thighs. Feel free to go ahead and sub a rotisserie chicken if you need to. Another shortcut that I love is pre-sliced mango for the Fish Tacos and the Avocado Mango Salad. Use your resources, friends! And have a yummy week!

When I meal plan I always start by planning my dinners. Then breakfast, then lunch. And finally, I fill in my snacks for the day with my remaining macros, points, or containers.
Healthy Snack Ideas | 21 Day Fix Snacks this post is a great way to get ideas for the containers, points, or macros you have leftover after you plan the rest of your day!
It’s still important to follow the 21 Day Fix plan on Saturdays and Sundays for optimal results, but you will likely have leftover meals and ingredients after following this healthy weekly meal plan. And, so, to eliminate food waste, take inventory of your fridge and pantry at the end of the week and create a plan for the weekend. Many people like to get some healthy takeout one night – think yummy salads with grilled protein or a slice of veggie pizza – and we have this helpful Healthy Weekend Meals post to help you even more!
