It’s quick, easy, colorful and healthy—basically, everything we want in a Monday night meal. (And psst, bookmark it for future meal-prep lunches.)

Tuesday: Spicy Stir-fried Chicken And Shredded Brussels Bowls

This quick, nutritious dish takes just 25 minutes from prep to plate and is loaded with good-for-you veggies. A win-win.

Wednesday: Roasted Tandoori Cauliflower Bowls

Another one-pan meal to minimize your post-dinner dish duty: This one’s warm and filling (even though it’s totally meat-free).

Thursday: Crispy-skinned Sweet Potato And Avocado Mash With Greens And Chimichurri

The chimichurri makes more than you’ll need, so save any leftovers for another day. (According to PureWow Coterie member Jodi Moreno, it gets better as it sits.)

Friday: Sheet-pan Chicken Shawarma With Sesame Sweet Potatoes And Hummus

Sure, you could make the hummus from scratch…or you could buy it from the grocery store and give yourself a pat on the back because you survived the week.

Saturday: Honey Mustard Chicken Bake

Sweet, savory and secretly low-calorie, this hands-off meal is exactly what you need for a cozy weekend. (Netflix optional, but encouraged.)

Sunday: Healthy Black Bean And Sweet Potato Chili

Makes a billion leftovers? Check. Soul-warming but healthy? Double-check. We’re officially convinced that all weeks should end with this chili.
