This Whole30 meal plan is designed for two adults. Because of the portion sizes of the meals, most meals should last for 2 meals for each person if not more. The idea of whole30 is to eat Whole Foods that you can tell what you are eating. This diet excludes, dairy, grains, and sugar. This meal plan is much more expensive due to the lack of grains- a primary cheap ingredient in most meal plans. There is also a higher amount of meat in this plan. I am assuming you have oil and basic seasonings.

Tips
- Prep all your ingredients at the beginning of the week
- Use coconut oil or avocado oil as approved whole30 oils
- Eat snacks if you get hungry
- Get creative with leftovers
- If you aren’t a huge egg person, get 2 18 packs instead of 60 count and eat less eggs
- If there’s a restaurant in your area that will cook a whole30 meal for you, plan that for the end of the week, just don’t be tempted by other food items they may serve
- Get friends on board with your whole30 plan and each of you makes double a meal and trades with each other for less cooking and more variety
