Clean Eating Made Simple: 7-day whole food meal plan

Clean eating means choosing real, whole foods that nourish the body and reduce exposure to additives, chemicals, and processed ingredients. It is not a strict diet, but a flexible way of eating that supports long-term wellness, energy, and digestive health. This 7-day plan offers simple, satisfying meals made from unprocessed ingredients to help you get started.

Clean Eating Principles

  • Eat mostly foods that are close to their natural and whole form (organic vegetables, fruit, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, and quality protein)

  • Avoid refined sugar, artificial additives, preservatives, and refined carbohydrates (flours)

  • Avoid processed or packaged foods and meats

  • Cook more meals at home using fresh ingredients

  • Stay hydrated and eat mindfully
