Hello there healthy veggie!
As always our weekly meal plan is all about being healthy, quick, nutritious, and delicious!
Who can resist this Refreshing Nectarine Salad? I know I can’t, what about you? I love how fruity salads just work, and this one sits on a bed of bulgur, arugula, avocado, and goat cheese – a perfect combination. It is also great for weight management and overall health. It’s really got everything.
And as a PS – if you don’t like goat’s cheese (I know many don’t) just swap it for a soft salad cheese or cow-feta 🙂
Also, don’t sleep on zucchini and chickpeas with yogurt! It’s won over even the most hardened chickpea haters, it’s a real treat!
Enjoy! 😊

Day 7 is all up to you. It’s a great day for leftovers, or if you want to go out to eat. Buddha Bowls or Burrito Bowls are a great way to use up leftovers. We still recommend keeping the calories to about 1300kcal if weight loss is a priority.
Recipe Tips:
- If you can’t find asparagus, then a cup of peas is a great substitute for the High Protein Eggs and Asparagus Breakfast!
- Refreshing Nectarine Summer Salad: : bulgur in this recipe can be swapped for other ancient grains.
- Harira: serve with cilantro and parsley. Don’t forget to squeeze some lemon juice over your soup, this really elevates all the other flavours. I also like to add ground lemongrass, ground cilantro seeds, smoky paprika powder, kurkuma and garam masala together with the garlic, for extra flavour.
- The 2 Ingredient Banana Egg Pancakes: add your personal fave toppings. We also received a lot of ideas for extra ingredients to jazz these pancakes up. Check the notes in the recipe card! (All optional of course).
- Black Bean Burrito Bowl: excless veggies or legumes fit really into this dish. Ideally get an avocado that is just ripe on day 3/4.
- Tomato Mozzarella Bread: skip the bread if you like – the cheese and tomatoes are still fantastic on their own!
- The Fried Chickpeas with Zucchini and Yogurt are nicer when served right away.
Meal Prep (Quick Tutorial): These recipes can be made ahead.
Generally, we advise to keep them in airtight containers and/or in the fridge. Some of them need to be reheated.
