We share our family’s weekly Mediterranean diet meal plan simply for meal ideas and recipe inspiration for anyone else looking for suggestions. Please keep in mind that every family and person is different and this is just what works for us.
How We Meal Plan
We go more in depth on how we go about planning meals in this post – Meal Planning Guide but just to quickly summarize –
- Breakfast is usually pretty standard in our house so I don’t include it on our meal plan list
- My kids either bring a bagged lunch or buy hot lunch at school so I only meal plan for my lunch (and my husband if he is working from home that day)
- I include notes on some days to indicate if the meal is something we have to make quickly, on the go, etc. This really helps when it comes to planning meals and buying food to know our schedule in advance.
- On Saturdays we typically eat leftovers and eat out for lunch or dinner. I indicate that on the meal plan each week but just in case you were wondering
We’ve saved all our previous weekly meal plans in one convenient location – Weekly Mediterranean Diet Meal Plans.
This Week’s Mediterranean Diet Meal Plan
This week was a bit crazy. We are having our kitchen cabinets re-painted next week so we had to empty them out in preparation. That meant our meals were a bit scattered. We are also headed out of town soon, so we were also trying to use up things in the fridge.

These are the recipe we enjoyed this past week –
We also tried this Slow Cooker Ratatouille from Real Food, Whole Life and it was phenomenal! So good and very easy since it’s made in the slow cooker. Highly Recommend.
We are working on posting our Easy Egg Salad recipe that we enjoyed multiple times this week for lunch. Recipe coming soon.
