Hello, fit foodie friends! Can you believe another week and month have flown by? It feels like just yesterday we were setting new goals, and now we’re diving into May with exciting plans. Before we jump into all the delicious food, I wanted to share a personal update: I recently published my Autism Story 2021 Update. April may be ending, but my hope is that the awareness and support for autism continue year-round. ❤️

A Week of Flavor, Quick Meals, and Cinco de Mayo Celebrations

This week’s meal plan is all about balancing delicious, vibrant flavors with the convenience of quick and easy preparation. And what better way to kick off the new month than with a full-blown Cinco de Mayo celebration? We’re embracing the festive spirit with not one, but two incredible Mexican-inspired meals!

Our Taco Tuesday will feature my mouthwatering Air Fryer Shrimp Taco Recipe, perfectly paired with a refreshing Mexican Street Corn Salad. The air fryer makes the shrimp incredibly crispy and flavorful with minimal oil, keeping it light and healthy. Then, for Cinco de Mayo itself on Wednesday, we’re indulging in savory Sheet Pan Nachos – a crowd-pleasing dish that’s surprisingly easy to make compliant with your healthy eating goals. I truly cannot wait for these festive feasts!

Beyond our Cinco de Mayo themed meals, the rest of the week is designed for ultimate ease and deliciousness. I’m thrilled to introduce my brand new Instant Pot Ramen Stir Fry. This recipe is a fantastic twist on my popular Ramen Chicken Stir Fry and takes inspiration from everyone’s favorite Asian Chicken Meatballs, but without the extra step of forming meatballs. It’s a truly simple, flavorful, and quick weeknight dinner that the whole family will love.

For a reliable and healthy lunch option, my Easy Chicken Veggie Soup is a personal favorite that I make on repeat. It’s perfect for meal prep, provides a boost of vegetables, and is incredibly comforting without being heavy.
