Into the Whole30 diet? If so, chances are high that you are looking for meals that are not only healthy, but that taste great as well. For the uninitiated, the plan revolves around eating only “whole foods” for 30 days, while cutting out sugar, alcohol, dairy, soy, grains and legumes, such as beans. But, just because are-or will be giving-some things up does not mean that meals have to be boring.

Breakfast
Site user russell understands that the decision to partake in Whole30 could lead to you missing bread. But, never fear! Substitute traditional tea loaves and muffins with these banana-sweetened, almond flour-filled drop muffins. No grains, added sugar or dairy means no guilt, and they are certainly good enough to share! Add vanilla and cinnamon for some additional flavor. If you are the only one on this plan, feel free to just make half of the listed measurements, too.
Danny Balgey has shared the inspiration for his much-loved protein bars with the world. Influenced by Jewish macaroons, these bars are energizing and compliant. Win-win! Sweetened using dates, and featuring nuts, coconut oil and sea salt for some variety, these are must-haves for any workout.
Ken claims these eggs are some of the best and easiest to make out there. The process makes it easy to peel away the shells for an easy early morning meal. Although they feature salt and vinegar, the taste is almost hidden when they are cooked, so adding some additional salt and or pepper may be needed to jazz up the taste. Was he true? Test it out for yourself.
Lunch
SUBEAST says that these are easy to make and a surefire hit any time of the year. We happen to agree, and think these would make a stellar addition to any salad. Pepper, paprika and lemon give them some zing. Put them on skewers alongside some veggies for a memorable midday meal.
This idea is versatile. Add a diet-friendly dressing to put in on a sandwich, or put it over more roasted carrots for a hearty feast. Celery and onion make this ideal for adding to soups, Tex-Mex fare or whatever you can think of.
Dinner
This idea means you can still have a classy dinner. Salmon is cooked alongside fragrant herbs to make a delectable main course. Serve with rice and bread made with Whole30 flour. Garnish with lemon slices and dole in out on nice plates.
Sometimes you want to treat yourself to a nice meal. This roast accomplishes that goal. The Allrecipes user who submitted it, SALSIEPIE, refers to it as a ‘total splurge’ or ‘special occasion’ dish. Go big or go home when preparing this satisfying dish. Pro tip: leave the oven door closed when this is baking. Opening it alters its cook time and temperature.
Lemon and garlic make for ideal additions to this luxe idea, courtesy of Joe Nekratz. When paired with the shrimp idea above, these can complete a fishy dinner that is full of flavor. Dig in!
Make these meals and stay on track the healthy way. Good luck and enjoy!
