Hey there!
Laura here to help you plan a few clean meals for your week! Kendra and I always get the question, what meals can I make that are “clean meals”? Do understand that eating clean basically means that we’re taking our meals down to the basics. If you want Chinese food, cut up the vegetables yourself and make it! If you want pasta, switch it up and you gluten free or brown rice pastas. Try and make meals where you know what every ingredient is that you’re eating. If you’re stuck on where to start, check the menu below!
