I know many of you are struggling with time at the moment and want quick and easy meals for the whole family so that is what I have created for you.
As before there are two meal plans, a standard one and a vegetarian one. I have tried to make them quite similar so you can adjust accordingly if only one person is vegetarian for example.
If you find having ready-made meal plans helpful for your weight loss then These healthy meal plans are written to be predominantly syn-free or with minimal syns. I state when they have syns or use your healthy extra b choices or healthy extra a choices to help you.
