This week’s healthy meal plan proves that healthy eating can be satisfying. A great mix of flavors in this week’s recipes!
We’re back into the swing of our regular schedule, which means that meal planning, nightly cooking and meal prep are in full swing. Winter always feels like a desolate time for fresh produce, but it’s actually a great time to experiment with hearty vegetables such as cauliflower, squash and beets.
And don’t forget that citrus fruits are filling the stores right, giving you a great excuse to add them to salads, smoothies and sauces. Touches of acid (think citrus and vinegar) and fresh herbs are great ways to add brightness to your meals. Play around a squeeze of lemon or a dash of vinegar to liven up soups and stews.

Each week’s meal plan mirrors the way we eat at home – 90% healthy, with the occasional decadent meal thrown in. There will be a mixture of meat and meatless meals, with everything from slow cooker soups and dinner salads to one-pot dinners and breakfast for dinner recipes. A little bit of everything, which is exactly how we eat at our house.
If you make any of these recipes, I’d love to see them on Instagram! Just use the hashtag #COOKINCANUCK and I’ll be sure to find your photos.
