Woah… (Almost) Halfway There!
2018 Whole30 – Week 3 Meal Plan
Two weeks down! You know what that means…. Almost halfway there!!! (Now Bon Jovi lyrics will be in my head all night, which I had to share… You are welcome.) It also means I feel like I’ve been cooking nonstop for two weeks. And I kinda have.
This week I’m trying two new breakfasts – some chia pudding and a coconut breakfast bake. The mini muffins are a staple in our house, as are quite a few recipes from Nom Nom Paleo’s extensive list of Whole30 options. This week, I’ve added a couple from Nom Nom and a few from Paleo Running Momma. I’m particularly excited about the twice baked potatoes and the sautéed apples and pears from her site. They sound so yummy!
We start our lunches with leftovers from our weekend dinner of Orange Chicken & Cauliflower Fried Rice. The latter was from Nom Nom, so I knew it would be good. The Orange Chicken was okay, but would have been much better if I had not over-zested the orange sauce. It wasn’t the recipe… it was operator error. Beware of over-zesting, people!
Here is the Week 3 Meal Plan!
| Breakfast | Lunch | Dinner | |
| Monday | Banana Almond Chia Pudding | Leftover Orange Chicken & Cauliflower Fried Rice | Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie |
| Tuesday | Prosciutto-Wrapped Mini Muffins | Leftover Shepherd’s Pie | Cracklin’ Chicken, Spinach Artichoke Twice Baked Potatoes |
| Wednesday | More Chia Pudding – maybe with berries this time! | Leftovers | Paleo Chicken Cobb Salad with Ranch |
| Thursday | Leftover Mini Muffin | Tuna or Egg Salad with cut veggies & ranch | Dinner Out (likely Chipotle) |
| Friday | Strawberry Coconut Breakfast Bake | Salad with HB eggs & bacon crumbles | Breakfast for Dinner (eggs, bacon, fruit) with Sauteed Apples & Pears with Coconut Butter |
| Saturday | Mini Muffin and Breakfast Bake | Leftovers | Chicken Faux Pho |
| Sunday | Whatever breakfast leftovers are left! | Bilinski’s Sausages, spinach & mustard | Steak Fajitas |
If you have any Whole30 successes (or funny failures!) from the first two weeks, we’d love it if you’d share them!

Here’s to an easy and healthy week 3!
The first time I made the orange chicken I over zested too. Try it again….after you get the taste out of if your mouth. Thanks for linking and the feedback.
