How We Create Meal Plans
Registered dietitians thoughtfully createEatingWellsmeal plans to be easy-to-follow and delicious.
Handfuls of babyspinachand some fiber-rich artichokes ensure that the dish is as good for you as it is comforting.
A thinly sliced onion and lots of capers ensure that the dish is super-flavorful.
Serve it with some steam-in-the-bag green beans to add a serving of vegetables and meet ourMediterranean diet guidelines.

You get the toasty bread and the gooey cheese, but you also get a serving of vegetables.
Plus the combo of whole-wheat bread and broccoli packs ample fiber to support your gut health.
Serve it with some precooked brown rice.

Thursday: White Bean Enchilada Skillet
Enchiladas make an excellent comforting dinner.
Here we use white beans and corn and a tangy green enchilada sauce.
Ill serve them with slicedavocado, a good source of healthy fat to include when following the Mediterranean diet.
