Your March 29 meal plan is here.
The recipes, the grocery list, and a Sunday prep plan.
Something I’ve learned from doing this long enough is that the weeks with real variety built in are just better weeks—for me, for my boys, for anyone. Different proteins, different flavors, different vibes. Nobody is staring at yet another chicken breast wondering how they got there again.
That’s exactly what I went for this week, and I’m excited about this lineup. There’s beef, chicken, and fish on the menu—each completely different from the last, but with enough ingredient overlap that the grocery list doesn’t spiral.
The chuck roast is slow and deeply spiced and gets better every single day it sits in the fridge. It’s also a brand new recipe and it’s already one of my all-time favorites—which is saying something because I’ve made a lot of chuck roasts. The fish tacos are bright and fast and done before you’ve had time to stress about dinner. The lemon orzo is somewhere in the middle and just perfection.
Lunch is a BBQ chicken salad that holds up in the fridge all week which is the entire criteria for a good meal prep lunch if you ask me. And breakfast is overnight oats you make the night before and completely ignore until morning. Truly the dream.
Below you’ll find everything you need—the recipes, the grocery list, and a few tips to make the week run smoother. This week’s plan includes:
1 breakfast

Rolled oats, protein powder, chia seeds, blueberries, and a swirl of peanut butter are all mixed in a jar the night before and waiting in the fridge when you wake up. No cooking, no cleanup, no thinking required in the morning. They keep for up to a week, which means you can make them once and breakfast is handled.
tips & swaps
Mix everything the night before and refrigerate for at least 6 hours—the longer they sit, the better the texture
Frozen blueberries work just as well as fresh and are usually cheaper
Add a splash of almond milk in the morning if you want them a little looser
Swap peanut butter for almond butter if that’s what you have
