This week’s Healthy Family Meal Plan (Vol. 1)

If you’re curious what a healthy, real food meal plan looks like for a busy family of four with activities 6 out of 7 days… here’s ours! We love a mix of shortcuts and easy-to-prep dinners for our busy weeknight schedule- always real food based, nutrient-dense and protein packed. Let’s dive into this week’s plan!

Meal #1: Copycat Chipotle Steak Bowls

If you’re a fan of big, hearty burrito bowls like we are, you have to try these Chipotle copycat steak bowls with a delicious spicy marinated steak and all the toppings!

Meal #2: Pizza Chicken Spaghetti Squash

If your family loves pizza like mine does, this pizza-inspired chicken over spaghetti squash is a fun, nutrient-dense addition to your dinner table- no delivery required!

Meal #3: Sheet Pan Teriyaki Salmon Bowls

These sheet pan teriyaki salmon bowls are a new addition to the Healthy Mama Meals recipe library- they’re easy, nutrient-packed and the kids go wild for them! Make them with your favorite store-bought teriyaki sauce for a shortcut option or try my easy teriyaki sauce, all within the app. Click here to try it out for a week free + grab this recipe in this week’s meal plan!

Meal #4: Cauliflower Crust Shepherd’s Pie

This one is an oldie but goodie- a true family-favorite comfort food meal, in our house! Made with simple, budget-friendly ingredients, loaded with veggies and packed with flavor, this one has been a go-to in our house for years and years!

Meal #5: Skillet Orange Chicken & Broccoli

This is one of those Asian fusion inspired recipes that hits the sweet and savory marks perfectly for me. It’s not too sticky-syrupy-sweet that it feels unbalanced, it’s not too salty to feel over the top, and it’s every bit craveable for a weeknight dinner that will come together faster than your takeout order!

BONUS: Make a batch of these kid-favorite double chocolate banana muffins to have for quick-grab snacks!
