4worldlovers: Are you a busy professional that dreams of coming home to a healthy balanced meal made from real whole foods, but you have no clue where to start? You've come to the right place!

Weeknight Dinners meals are filled with fiber, lean protein, and healthy fats — they’re anti-inflammatory, energizing, and delicious. They’re also packed with color and flavor to improve your health and keep you interested in whole-food-based eating and home cooking. All ingredients are whole or minimally processed and free of refined sugar.

Weeknight Dinners is a plant-based meal plan program derived from the Mediterranean diet. Focus is placed on fresh, seasonal, whole foods. Extra virgin olive oil is the main source of fat, chicken and seafood are used more than lamb and beef, and nearly 50% of the meals are vegetarian. Lunch and dinner dishes include ample vegetables — both cooked and raw.

Restriction isn’t a focus of the program because, well, it’s not sustainable. And, quite frankly, it’s not fun. With that being said, food groups are not removed, and food is not demonized. Gluten is used, and so is dairy. Not every day, but it is incorporated at times (substitutions are provided when appropriate). With Weeknight Dinners, intuitive eating is encouraged.

Menus are designed to provide your body with the vitamins and minerals you need. The macronutrient profile is s 50% carbs, 20% protein, and 30% fat. It’s well balanced and backed by current scientific literature. It’s also derived from the Mediterranean diet — which has helped millions live long, robust lives.

I hold a Master of Arts degree in Food Studies and a Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics. I’m also a Registered Dietitian with a Graduate Certificate in Dietetics. My mission is to help others find pleasure in cooking and eating — all while creating a life they can maintain. I hope you’ll join me in the kitchen.
