If you’ve noticed, the meal plans are pretty heavy on the herbs and spices. You really can’t eat cleanly without them.
This plan is no different. With my take on a traditional Indian dish like Chicken Biryani, an old dish like Jambalaya and an old favorite on the blog – the Honey Spiced Chicken Thighs, you’ll get to play with lots of different herbs and spices and see how well they blend together.

The meal plan includes breakfast recipes, lunch recipes, dinner recipes and snacks for 7 days. This meal plan includes chicken as well as pork and turkey with an option to swap out meats as desired.
Don’t just listen to me, check out the reviews:

I bought your first meal plan, but didn’t use it. Then I saw the budgetarian one and because I am as cheap as you say you are, probably more, I got it and started to use it last Monday. First of all I have to say that I already had about 95% of what was on the shopping list so it only cost me about 25 extra dollars of my food budget to get what I needed. I am the only one in my family eating on your plan b/c of restrictive diets due to medical conditions. I too looked it over and was kind of like “I don’t think I’ll like this or that.” but I took the plunge, followed faithfully and today 7 days later, I am 7 lbs lighter. I feel much better internally and mentally sharper. I used to have to take up to 8 laxatives a week and again you were right when you said that for every meal you eat, you should be disposing of the remnants of the last one. I only got to make 4 recipes, because I have so much food left over, but the tomato paella is my favorite thus far. Thank you. This was not half as hard as I thought it would be.

BTW been using your first plan this week. And yes I’ve lost weight but won’t dwell on that. :O) The real coup for me is that I read your recipes and thought, “I don’t do this in my food or that”and “I won’t like that and I’ll modify”…blah blah blah. :O) But last week I decided I’ll just do your recipes as is and low and behold have loved everything so far. My favorite so far is the Rosemary Chicken and the subsequent chicken salad… both were delicious and “I don’t even like fruit” in my chicken salad…LOL. Tonight is the chicken wings and I even went out and got pork chops, which I haven’t eaten in YEARS. So thank you. I stepped out and tried something different and realized I really liked it. The Rosemary Chicken and chicken salad are staying in my arsenal. Next week I’ll do the vegetarian menu.

A friend bought the plan for me to try as I prepare for my wedding & as I am trying to be healthier. I am already down 3 pounds (I started Monday). All the recipes, so far, are ridiculously good! And you have taken all the work out of shopping and preparing dinner. I LOVE IT! I a fa(t)shion blogger, but I do and always have known the importance of being healthy. I def. will be purchasing next week’s meal plan! Thanks for putting this out there!
From Afrobella:
I’m trying to be healthier in what I consume, and think more carefully about processed foods. Black Girl’s Guide to Weight Loss has been a GREAT guide for me. I recently purchased the Black Girl’s Guide to Weight Loss meal plan — click here to get yours! In the meal plan Erika outlines a guide to being more cognisant of what you eat, teaches the lost art of snack fu, and shares some recipes that are off the chain yummylicious. The Juicy Lucy burger is INSANELY good, and proves you can enjoy Fourth of July faves without sacrificing your overall health. What’s a Juicy Lucy? It’s a cheeseburger with the cheese stuffed inside the burger instead of on top. So. Yummy. Makes a turkey burger rich and delicious. It’s a must for my Fourth of July menu.
And, as always: The meal plans are meant to be used as a tool for those who want to eat healthier, but struggle with the time it takes to do the planning. There are posts on this blog that teach about meal planning, but if you want to skip a step as well as make a minor contribution to the blog (and receive something for it), these meal plans will help.
