4-Week Healthy Meal Plan with Grocery List (2024)

Kickstart your healthy eating with this 100% free and done-for-you 4-Week Healthy Meal Plan created by registered dietitians.

What is the 4-Week Healthy Meal Plan?

The 4-Week Healthy Eating Meal Plan is just like it sounds – 4 weeks of healthy recipes planned for you created by our team of Registered Dietitians. Here’s how it works:

• For every week of the meal plan, we’ve provided 4 healthy dinner recipes that also provide plenty of leftovers to use for other meals in the week
• Every week includes its own done-for-you grocery list
• We’ve provided suggestions for breakfasts, lunches, and snacks
• This meal plan is meant to be flexible to fit your lifestyle and family needs – start the meal plan anytime it works for you

Our goal with this meal plan is that it is realistic for you to follow and doesn’t require you to make a new recipe for every meal of the day. So we decided to focus on what tends to be the biggest pain point when it comes to meal planning: healthy dinners. Read more about how the meal plan works below!

Who is this Healthy Meal Plan for?

This healthy eating meal plan is for anyone who wants to take some of the guesswork out of healthy eating. Don’t worry, we don’t expect you to spend hours each day in the kitchen every day prepping these meals. Our recipes are designed to be short on ingredients but big on flavor. All of the recipes are gluten-free and we provide suggestions – whenever possible – for how to make them work with other special diets, such as dairy free, nut free, or egg free.
