CloseOur column, ThePrep, has everything you’ll need to make meal planning and meal prep as easy as can be. Sign uphereto get a meal plan delivered to your inbox every Saturday!With all the fresh, flavorful produce available, summer is the easiest time of the year to eat healthy. This week, I’ll be cooking up dinners that use plenty of fresh summer ingredients and follow the principles of theMediterranean diet—which research dubs one of the healthiest ways to eat. An added bonus—each meal is on the lighter side, coming in right around 400 calories, yet still incredibly satisfying to help you feel your best all week long.Your Meal PlanThe Mediterranean diet doesn’t mean you can only eat foods from the Mediterranean region (think Italy, Greece and Spain). Its healthy eating principles can apply to any type of cuisine, which is why you’ll see all sorts of delicious recipes in this week’s line up, starting with Sunday’sPesto Chicken Bake. I love the combination of pesto and tomatoes any time of the year, but it’s best when both basil and tomatoes are at their peak.Monday’sFeta, Kale & Pear Saladis another fresh and flavorful dinner. It’s filling enough to stand on its own for dinner, and the creamy lemon-tahini dressing that goes on top is so good. I always make extra so I have some for lunch during the work week. Tuesday’sOne-Pot Garlicky Shrimp & Spinachpairs tasty flavors with easy cleanup, and uses a whole pound of spinach to deliver plenty of nutrients to this meal. To amp up the veggie count for the week even more, I’m bringing some zucchini noodles into the mix with Wednesday’s yummyZucchini Noodles with Pesto & Chickenand cauliflower rice to go with theSteak, Pepper & Sugar Snap Stir-Fryon Friday.
