We are three weeks into January and the healthy meal planning is still going strong! I have absolutely loved seeing the recipes you all have been making and how much you have been enjoying these meal plans! We are going to close out the month strong with some more of my favorite recipes to get you through the end of the month! Because you all loved the make it once, eat it twice or three times approach last week, I am including several recipes for breakfast lunch that you can do just that! I aim to make your life easier in the kitchen and I hope this meal plan does just that!
