Healthy Meal Plan {Week 130}

We're using lots of pantry staples in this week's healthy meal plan! Many of the recipes are versatile enough to substitute in available ingredients.

After a couple of weeks of indoor time (I know you can relate!), recipes ideas have a way of drying up...then coming to a screeching halt. Even the most savvy of home cooks needs a little help when ingredients are harder to come by. Earlier this week, I shared 20+ Healthy Recipes Using Pantry Staples - hopefully that gives you some ideas.

Honestly, I waffled on whether I should keep posting meal plans during this time, knowing that grocery store trips are few and far between.

But I figured the meal plans could at least serve as inspiration - and many of the recipes are versatile enough to allow for substitutions. For example, it's easy enough to substitute feta with Cheddar cheese in the egg casserole below. Or you could use chicken instead of shrimp to round out the pasta salad.

Use what you have and give yourself a little grace when your meals aren't packed with all of your desired ingredients.

Stay healthy, everyone!

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.
