0 shares Fall is in full swing and we’re celebrating with comforting soups, stews and other hearty dishes in this week’s healthy meal plan. It’s been a week of tux fittings, corsage orders and planning for next weekend’s homecoming dance. First homecoming for my youngest and last for my oldest. Bittersweet, to say the least. I’ve learned over the past couple of years that homecoming is less about the actual dance than it is about the dinner beforehand. Aww, kids after my own heart. 🙂 Leading up to the big dance, we have a regular week of school, work and activities, so meal planning is in order. As usual, there’s a mix of vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals in this week’s plan. And all including calorie counts and Weight Watchers SmartPoints. If you’re on Pinterest, be sure to follow my Healthy School Night Recipe board, which includes recipes from many of my favorite blogging buddies. If you missed out on my posts this week, pop over to check them out: Apple Pie Homemade Granola Recipe – Serve it with milk or granola, or keep it around for snacking. 25 Quick & Healthy Breakfast Ideas – Quick cooking or make-ahead recipes. Instant Pot Chicken Stew with Farro (+ stovetop instructions) – One of our favorite comfort meals! The meal plans: Click here for the previous meal plans. 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.
