Your Weekly Meal Plan
We all could benefit from eating enough fiber. This amazing nutrient provides lots of benefits to your body, from helping you feel full and satisfied after meals to keeping your bathroom routine—ahem—running smoothly. And with this week's dinner lineup, you don't have to sacrifice flavor for function. These delicious recipes feature high-fiber ingredients like whole grains, legumes and veggies, delivering at least 8 grams of fiber per serving to help you stay regular. Plus, they are all quick to make—you can get dinner on the table this week in 25 minutes or less. | | | | | | Sunday | One-Pot Creamy Chicken Pasta with Zucchini | A combination of whole-wheat pasta and zucchini packs 10 grams of filling fiber per serving of this creamy pasta dinner. Since this recipe only calls for 3 cups of shredded rotisserie chicken, I'll use what's left over for Wednesday night's dinner. | | | | | | Tuesday | Pan-Seared Steak with Crispy Herbs & Escarole | If you've never had escarole, I recommend you give it a try. This bitter leafy green is a surprisingly food source of fiber, providing 4 grams of fiber per cooked cup. Wilting it in the pan after the steak is done allows it to absorb any drippings left in the pan, mellowing its flavor. | | | | | | Wednesday | Orange-Mint Freekeh Salad with Lima Beans | One thing I love about salads is that all ingredients are welcome. And this one is packed with colorful produce like oranges, snap peas, radishes and fresh herbs. By incorporating all the colors of the rainbow into your diet, you'll benefit from a variety of nutrients that support your overall health. I'll top this salad with leftover chicken from Sunday for an extra-satisfying protein boost. | | | | | | Friday | California Turkey Burgers & Baked Sweet Potato Fries | To welcome the weekend, my husband and I are making these delicious and juicy burgers on Friday. In addition to classic toppings like onion and tomato, I'll sautee some mushrooms for an extra umami flavor. Though these burgers are wrapped in lettuce instead of using buns, I'll pick up brioche burger buns from my favorite bakery for a more rounded meal. | | | | | | Unsubscribe | We independently evaluate all recommended products and services.
