Healthy Meal Plans Week 9

As we settle into the last week in February, I always like to take a minute to reflect on what's working and not working when it comes to any goals I set for the new year. It helps me to get motivated about things that are going well and make tweaks in places where I am not accomplishing what I want. Personally, I am happy to report that things have been great on the healthy eating front BUT I need to get more active. That will be where I am focusing going into March. What's going well for you? What are you hoping to change?

Now let's talk about the food. Here's what to expect this week! It starts out with a delicious Italian Frittata, Tex Mex Stuffed Zucchini, and Slow Cooker Spicy Pulled Pork. Monday brings Creamy Tomato, Spinach, and Mushroom Pasta and Tuesday is One Pan Teriyaki Chicken and Vegetables. Wednesday is Greek Tostadas and Thursday is Sheet Pan Lemon Pepper Chicken. To end the week, meals include Fish Tacos with Lime Slaw and Grilled Cheeseburger Wraps.

  • Meal Prep: You can make the Apple Pie and Almond Butter Chia Seed Pudding (at least 4 hours in advance), couscous, and refried beans in advance. And don't forget to prep any veggies ahead of time to save time chopping and dicing on weeknights.
  • Cooking Tip: If you aren't a big fan of pork, use boneless skinless chicken thighs instead for the slow cooker pork.
  • Love leftovers: Consider doubling up the Tex Mex Zucchini and Slow Cooker Spicy Pork to keep in the freezer for easy, future meals.

Weight Watchers! We are excited to share a new feature that allows you to choose between Green, Blue, and Purple Smartpoints! Then you will get a customized plan for that plan! You can switch between plans at any point - it's all included with your membership.

And here's a preview of some of this week's delicious meals!

Slow Cooker Spicy Pulled Pork: This healthy spin on pulled pork is made with a spicy barbecue sauce and cooks low and slow until it is fork tender and delicious.

Serve it with some cauliflower mashed potatoes  or stuffed into sandwiches for a tasty meal the whole family will love. This beef is really special. I first saw it over on The Pioneer Woman’s website and have made it multiple times for game-days, get-togethers, and as a base for multiple meals throughout the week. The idea is so simple  - slow cooker beef with pepperoncinis , onions, and a touch of Italian seasoning and the outcome is better than anything you could imagine.  It’s terrific on sandwiches, over rice, turned into a quick beef stew, stuffed in peppers.
