Breakfast: Berry Crisp [Gluten-free | Dairy Free]
Start your day with a sweet and satisfying treat that feels indulgent but is packed with goodness. This crisp uses fresh or frozen berries, making it versatile year-round. It’s a wonderful way to enjoy a “dessert for breakfast” without derailing your healthy eating goals, and it’s surprisingly easy to whip up for multiple servings.
21 Day Fix: 1 PURPLE, 1/2 YELLOW, 1/3 BLUE, 1 TSP, 2 sweetener TSP (per serving) | WW Blue: 8 points (per serving) | [Recipe makes 6 servings]
Groceries:
- 6 cups fresh or frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries are excellent)
- 4 ½ T honey or maple syrup (adjust to your sweetness preference)
- 1–2 T arrowroot flour or corn starch (optional, for thickening the berry mixture. Many prefer to skip this for a looser, more natural consistency.)
- 2 T coconut oil (provides a rich, buttery flavor for the crisp topping)
- 1 cup of Gluten Free Rolled Oats (the base for our delicious, crunchy topping)
- 1/2 cup of Almond Flour (adds depth and texture to the topping)
- cinnamon (a warming spice that complements the berries beautifully)
- salt (just a pinch to enhance all the flavors)
Monday: Greek Pasta Salad
This updated classic is the ideal meal for a warm Monday. It’s light, flavorful, and incredibly refreshing, especially when topped with your favorite lean protein. Prep it ahead of time for an even easier dinner!
21 Day Fix: 2 GREEN, 1 1/2 RED, 3/4 BLUE (per serving) | WW Blue: 8 points (per serving) | [Recipe makes 6 Servings]
Groceries:
- 3 cups of cooked whole wheat or GF pasta (choose a shape that holds dressing well, like rotini or penne)
- 2 cups of diced cucumber (for crisp freshness)
- 2 cups of broccoli florets (adds a satisfying crunch and nutritional boost)
- 1 1/2 cups of grape tomatoes, cut in half or left whole (bursts of sweet acidity)
- 1/4 of a red onion, thinly sliced (TIP: Soak your sliced red onion in cold water while your pasta boils. This simple trick removes the harsh “bite” and leaves a milder, sweeter flavor.)
- 1 cup of feta cheese crumbles (for that essential tangy, salty kick)
- 20 olives (kalamata olives are highly recommended for their rich flavor)
- 1/2 lemon (for fresh juice to brighten the dressing)
- Optional: grilled chicken breast or canned tuna (drained) for added protein and satiety.
Tuesday: Taco Zucchini Boats
A fun and healthy twist on taco night! These zucchini boats are perfect for using up garden zucchini and sneaking in extra veggies. The recipe is highly customizable with your favorite taco toppings.
21 Day Fix: 1 RED, 2 GREEN (for meat and lettuce), plus salad toppings | WW Blue: 6 points (per serving) | [Recipe makes 4 servings]
Groceries:
- olive oil cooking spray (for sautéing and preventing sticking)
- 1 1/2 pounds of lean ground turkey, chicken, or beef (choose your preferred lean protein)
- canned low sodium tomato sauce – I use ONE 10oz can per pound of meat (adds moisture and a rich tomato base)
- 1–2 T of the 21 Day Fix Salt Free Taco Seasoning (control your sodium intake with this homemade blend)
- 1/4 tsp of Himalayan salt per pound of meat (to taste)
- 2 large zucchini (the star of our “boats,” choose firm, medium-sized zucchini)
- 2/3 cup of sharp cheddar cheese (for melting on top, feel free to use a dairy-free alternative)
- Toppings: Fresh pico de gallo, sliced avocado or guacamole, fresh cilantro, plain Greek yogurt (as a sour cream alternative) – let everyone customize their boat!
Wednesday: Easy Caprese Chicken {21 Day Fix} with Instant Pot Corn on the Cob
This simple yet elegant Caprese Chicken is a weeknight winner. Paired with perfectly cooked Instant Pot corn, it’s a meal that feels gourmet but comes together quickly.
21 Day Fix: 1 RED, 1/2 GREEN, 1/2 BLUE (per serving) | WW Blue: 5 points (per serving with sauce) | [Recipe makes 2 Servings]
Instant Pot Corn Tip: You can make the best Corn on the Cob in your Instant Pot! Just add 1 cup water to the pot, then lay a metal trivet in the bottom. Stack up as many ears of corn as will fit (you may need to break them in half). Finally, add a tiny pat of butter (or a spray of olive oil for lower points) on each ear of corn and cook for 2 minutes on manual/pressure cook. Quick release, and enjoy perfectly tender corn every time!
Groceries:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (flattened slightly for even cooking)
- 1/2 cup good-quality balsamic vinegar (for a sweet and tangy glaze)
- 1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes (halved, for freshness and a pop of color)
- sliced fresh mozzarella (for melting and creamy texture; use fresh pearls or slices)
- fresh basil (essential for that classic Caprese flavor)
- salt and pepper (to season the chicken)
- optional – liquid stevia (a dash can enhance the sweetness of the balsamic glaze without added sugar)
- Optional: 2-4 ears of fresh corn on the cob.
Thursday: 21 Day Fix Honey Glazed Salmon | Weight Watchers Honey Glazed Salmon

Tip: This honey-glazed salmon pairs perfectly with Freezer Friendly Instant Pot Brown Rice and steamed or roasted broccoli for a complete, nutritious meal. The lean protein from the salmon combined with whole grains and plenty of greens makes for an ideal healthy dinner.
Groceries:
- 2–4 pieces of wild Alaskan salmon (such as Sockeye from Wegmans, chosen for its quality and flavor)
- juice of one lime (adds brightness and cuts through the richness of the salmon)
- coconut oil (for cooking, adds a subtle sweetness and helps with glazing)

Groceries:

- salt and crushed red pepper (to taste, for seasoning and a touch of heat)
