Free weekly meal plan #22 includes a menu, meal breakdown, example days with meals, and macronutrients. The recipes are easy, healthy, and family-friendly!
Free Weekly Meal Plan #22
Meal planning has been such a huge game-changer in my life. From freeing up time during the week to helping me meet my nutrition goals, having a weekly meal plan really helps me take on a busy schedule with confidence.
Because of this, I’m making free weekly meal plans with my recipes. Here’s free weekly meal plan #22!
I'm giving you an easy meal plan for 2 people. This is great if you want a basic foundation for a week of eating, or if you want to just work on adding more home-cooked meals into your life. However, you can scale up recipes to feed a whole family!
Meal Plan #22
Our weekly meal plans got an upgrade! These meal plans have all the same features you love, but are easier to read, printable, and easier on the eyes. There's also a shopping list!
This meal plan works great for 2 people for about 5 days. I’ve included all of the recipes I used in the meal plan, along with the macronutrient breakdowns of each meal.
Please use this as a starting point! Adjust meals as needed for your personal dietary and nutritional needs.
You can follow the plan, tweak it to suit your needs, or go fully custom with the help of my Weekly Meal Plan Template and other included resources.
Menu for the Week
This graphic shows the menu for the week. There are two breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks, drinks, and desserts.
These recipes can be meal prepped ahead of time or made the day they’re meant to be enjoyed. The meals will be enough for 2 people to last from Monday-Friday.
Meal Plan Shopping List
Intimidated by the shopping list? Don't be! Remember that some of these items—especially spices and pantry staples—might be items you already have or can easily build up over time.
If it still seems like a big task, remember you can always select certain meals "a la carte" below by clicking on the recipe and looking at the ingredients list for each one.
I try to make simple meals without a lot of unnecessary ingredients, but sometimes a less common item will make it into the list. Remember that you can always look at the recipes for substitutes, too, or get creative with your own modifications!
Example Days of Eating
Here are two example days of how the meals can be split up. This is an example of how the meals can be split up to fuel your day. Each day has the food along with the macronutrients for the day so you can stay on track.
Meal Plan Recipes
Here is a list of the recipes used in the meal plan below:
Breakfasts:
Breakfast Quesadillas - I've been loving these crispy, high-protein breakfast quesadillas! There's 4 ways you can make them, and I've been really into the macro-friendly version. You can make these for meal prep but they're better if you make them fresh!
Two Good Yogurt - I like to have this as a sweet, high-protein mid-morning snack.
Cheesy Sausage Egg White Bites - These 4-ingredient cheesy sausage egg white bites are high-protein, meal-prep friendly, and SO delicious! To amp up this breakfast, I like to serve with 2 slices of thin-sliced bread & a cheese wedge.
Lunches:
Honey Sriracha Chicken - This slow cooker honey sriracha chicken is the BEST. This easy and healthy recipe only requires 5 ingredients and is perfect for meal prep.
To complete the honey sriracha chicken bowls, I serve with brown rice & grilled veggies.
Fish Taco Bowls - This quick and easy Fish Taco Bowl is perfect for when you want to skip the part where it all falls out of the shell. This meal is light, fresh, and perfect for warm days!
To complete this meal, serve with tortilla chips & salsa.
Dinners:
Pork Carnitas - These crispy, tender, and juicy pork carnitas are delicious! What's even better is how easy this slow cooker pork carnitas recipe is to make (hint: very easy).
To complete this meal, serve with corn tortillas.
Chicken Alfredo Pasta Bake - Simple, nutritious, delicious—this Chicken Alfredo Pasta Bake has it all! It should be called ALLfredo...
For some extra veggies, serve over mixed greens!
Snacks:
Apples - A simple, delicious, snack that's best if you choose a honey crisp apple!
Flex Chips & Cottage Cheese - This savory snack combo is one of my favorites. The savory, crispy Flex Chips (10 grams of protein per serving) are awesome dipped in some low fat cottage cheese (12 grams of protein).
Every week I pick a few high-protein snacks off my 20 high-protein, low-carb snacks list.
Desserts:
Lemon Yogurt Parfait - This lemon yogurt parfait is a high-protein bowl of lemon creme & vanilla swirly goodness! This healthy recipe uses 4 ingredients & takes 4 minutes to make. If you don't like lemon I highly recommend the chocolate version.
Jojo's Dark Chocolate Pretzels - There chocolate pretzels are the newest sweet treat by Jojo's! They are sugar-free, gluten-free, and insanely good.
The code JORDO will get you a discount on every Jojo's order!

The only way I can figure it out is copy the image into Word and then print. If you click the print button on the left it prints the entire 8 pages.

I absolutely enjoy your website. I am not computer savvy. Can you tell me how to download and print the weeks menu and shopping list. I can't seem to find the link
