Welcome to a week of culinary efficiency with Armygymnastics. Our meal plan is designed to fit a tight budget and schedule. With a 20-minute weekend shopping spree and a 16-item list, the stage is set for a week of tempting, health-focused meals.
Sunday Night’s Dinner:
Begin with a classic – Rotisserie Chicken with Roasted Vegetables. It is a no-fuss meal rich in protein and fiber. Roast a medley of asparagus, mushrooms, and onions to golden perfection, and pair it with a succulent rotisserie chicken breast or leg. The result? A balanced dinner that sets the tone for the week.
The Next day’s Lunch:
Transform last night’s dinner into today’s Lunch with a Chicken Portobello Wrap. Toss chopped chicken with homemade balsamic aioli in a whole-wheat tortilla, adding flavor with roasted veggies and a sprinkle of mozzarella.
Monday Night’s Dinner:
Spice things up with Shrimp Fajitas. This vibrant dish combines the warmth of cumin and the zest of fresh veggies with tender shrimp. Wrap it all up in a whole-wheat tortilla for a satisfying meal.
The Next Day’s Lunch:
Keep the flavor fiesta going with a Fiesta Rice Bowl. Reheat the leftover fajita mix and serve it with fresh avocado slices and a dollop of salsa for a filling and exhilarating Lunch.
Tuesday Night’s Dinner:
Indulge in Italian with Fettuccine with Chicken, Roasted Vegetables, and Sun-Dried-Tomato Pesto. Whole-wheat pasta offers a fiber-rich base, while the sun-dried-tomato pesto adds a tangy twist.
The Next Day’s Lunch:
Continue the Italian affair with an Italian Quesadilla. Spread sun-dried-tomato pesto on a tortilla, top with chicken and roasted veggies, and melt mozzarella cheese for a delightful midday meal.
Wednesday Night’s Dinner:
Midweek calls for a stir-fry, and the Spicy Shrimp-and-Asparagus Stir-Fry does not disappoint. A quick toss in the pan with soy and hot sauce adds flavor to this nutrient-packed dinner.
The Next Day’s Lunch:
For a Thai twist, try Thai Peanut Noodles. Blend the previous night’s stir-fry with whole-wheat fettuccine and peanut sauce for an exotic and energizing lunch.
Thursday Night’s Dinner:
Savor the robust flavors of roasted pork loaf with peppers and balsamic onions. A tender pork loin roasted with garlic-infused veggies makes for a comforting yet healthful dinner.
The Next Day’s Lunch:
End the week on a high note with a Roasted Pork Wrap. Combine the succulent pork with sun-dried-tomato pesto and veggies in a whole-wheat tortilla for a hearty and delicious wrap.
