28 Day Meal Plan and Clean Eating Challenge – Are you in?

I’m so super excited to share with you a major meal plan project I’ve worked on. In addition to the amazing recipes found on my site, I’ve created a a 28 day all inclusive meal plan in partnership with the awesome team at BreakingMuscle.com! I am a regular article contributor and recipe writer for their website in addition to this blog so if you’re looking for more healthy recipes, you can find links to all of the ones I’ve created exclusively for them via this link to my coaches page. The 28 Day Clean Eating Challenge is a special exclusive collection of recipes including a meal plan for a full month of clean eating.

Knowing how to fuel your body with high quality whole foods is an important skill that anyone can learn. With this 28 day meal plan, I’ve created a foolproof framework for an entire month of healthy eating so you can experience your full potential through eating clean and learn how to incorporate clean eating into your routine after the challenge. In this plan, I’ve done all of the hard work for you. I’ve created a menu of nutritionally balanced meals, calculated the nutritional data for each meal and each day, and put together the shopping lists to take to the store for each week. The meal plan takes into account using leftovers which results in little to no food waste and keeps you on budget. For those with busy schedules, I’ve also had you in mind! I have made lunches easier by utilizing leftovers or have created lunch meals that can mostly be prepared in advance.

Who is this meal plan designed for?

Active individuals looking to directly experience how eating clean can benefit them.
Anyone who wants to learn how to season and make delicious foods using clean ingredients.
Athletes and non-athletes alike who wish to learn more about a clean eating lifestyle and how to apply this knowledge during and after the challenge.
Note: if you have specific dietary needs based on heavy athletic training, this plan can still be used for the basic clean eating guidelines and serve as a nutritional starting point for meals. You may need to alter to fit your higher specific calorie and macronutrient needs.

What this meal plan includes:

Delicious menu of what to eat for 4 full weeks, 3 meals a day, plus snacks and optional desserts.
Recipes and instructions for each meal with photographs.
Calorie counts and macronutrient numbers per meal and also a tallied total for the day.
Shopping list by week and pantry items used for the week.
Online support throughout the meal plan via email or via Facebook messenger by connecting with me on the Cooking Up Clean Facebook page.

What you will learn:

Which foods are considered clean eating and how to eat clean, each day, every day.
The knowledge of how to put together meals so you can continue eating clean after the challenge.
How to make better and more nutritious food choices whether you’re at home, at work or out to eat.
Awareness of what you’re eating.
The understanding and ability to make food choices based on how food affects your body.
How to plan ahead. Making food from scratch takes time and effort. I’ll share with you my tips to make it easier and keep motivated in the kitchen.
How to eat clean on a budget. I’ve included tips on how to shop and stay on budget within this meal plan which you can use well beyond this challenge.

What this meal plan ISN’T:

No supplements or additional vitamins needed. You’ll just be eating real, wholesome food.
This is not a plan for weight loss. Learning how to eat clean in a nutritionally balanced way and discovering how food makes you feel is the first step to later being able to minimize what you eat in order for weight loss to happen. You may, however, experience some weight loss on this plan depending on what your eating style was prior to beginning this challenge.
This meal plan is anything but boring. My plan includes the most flavorful combinations to keep you motivated and excited for your next meal. No plain boiled chicken being served here.

Empower yourself with the knowledge on how to eat clean and it will be one of the best decisions you can make for your future. Eating clean has changed me and my family in so many positive ways. It makes me happy. I want that feeling for everyone as they take on a cleaner eating style and I look forward to hearing about all of your experiences.
