Free 7 Day Healthy Meal Plan (Sept 16-22)

I love pears, they are so versatile and great in dessert or a fall salad! My Baked Pears with Walnuts and Honey are made with just 4 ingredients (you can even eat them for breakfast!) and I love Royal Riviera, Bosc and Anjou for baking for the best texture and taste. Check out this ripening chart to see what is in season near you!

This Kale and Butternut Squash Salad with Pears and Almonds just screams fall, but if you are looking for something warm try my Pork Chops and Pears with Spicy Mustard Greens for a different twist!

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. Depending on your goals, you should aim for at least 1500 calories* per day. There’s no one size fits all, this will range by your goals, your age, weight, etc.

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!
