Clean Kids Meal Plan

Do you know a picky eater?! Finding wholesome foods that your children will actually EAT can be quite the challenge! This Clean Kids Meal Plan is full of over a week's worth of healthy breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snack ideas that the whole family will love!

Hey, friends! If you have kids, then I'm sure that you understand the challenge that many parents face: coming up with a variety of easy, nutritious, and tasty meals that will make everyone at the table happy.

In order to make meal planning and grocery shopping easier, I have come up with this awesome list of kid-approved meals that the grown-ups in your house will also enjoy!

Most importantly the options on this Clean Kids Meal Plan are:

• made with wholesome, REAL food ingredients (minimal processed or refined foods)
• quick and easy to prepare (because WHO has time to spend hours in the kitchen when you have a busy family to care for?!)
• often freezer-friendly (such as the breakfast muffins and cookies), and often can be prepped in advance so that you're not fumbling around at the end of a long day trying to frantically put food on the table

I hope that you find this resource as useful as I have!

NOTE: In our house I always serve milk to drink with breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so you can assume that is included in each option as well! It's a guaranteed way to make sure that my kids are consuming enough protein and calcium, among other nutrients.
