Free 7 Day Healthy Meal Plan (Sept 9-15)

Late summer and early fall mean many things to me–one of them being apple season! While it depends on your region, many apples are ready for picking early fall through November, with Gala, McIntosh and Golden Delicious being some of the first varieties ready to harvest! Check out some of my favorite apple recipes like Crock Pot Applesauce, Apple Nut Bread and these Delightfully Baked Apples. Let me know your favorite orchards to go apple picking!

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!
