7 Day Healthy Meal Plan
Can you believe the first month of 2022 is already over? This year is already flying by! Did your team make it to the big game? I will admit, I am not the biggest football fan, but I love a good tailgate party and this Sunday there is none bigger! Hosting a party? Make sure you check out my Super Bowl and appetizer links to find some of my favorites apps like Buffalo Chicken Dip, Burger Sliders and Pepperoni Pizza Bites. If you are feeding a crowd check out my Quick Beef Chili or Madison’s Favorite Beef Tacos and make a taco bar! Enjoy and celebrate safely!

About The Meal Plan
If you’re new to my meal plans, I’ve been sharing these free, 7-day flexible healthy meal plans (you can see my previous meal plans here) that are meant as a guide, with plenty of wiggle room for you to add more food, coffee, beverages, fruits, snacks, dessert, wine, etc. or swap recipes out for meals you prefer, you can search for recipes by course in the index. You should aim for around 1500 calories* per day.
There’s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You’ll dine out less often, waste less food and you’ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.
Lastly, if you’re on Facebook join my Skinnytaste Facebook Community where everyone’s sharing photos of recipes they are making, you can join here. I’m loving all the ideas everyone’s sharing! If you wish to get on the email list, you can subscribe here so you never miss a meal plan!
