Give your body the food it needs this season and try the wholesome food ideas on this 7-Day Healthy Spring Meal Plan! This weekly menu includes delicious healthy recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner and is perfect for seasonal eating!
Now, as always – you don’t need to follow the meal plan religiously – you can mix and match as you go. If you love a recipe – why not make it again? If there are recipes that you deep down know you won’t like (maybe just yet) – just skip them and make a spring recipe you actually love!
I think I skipped sharing a meal plan last month, for which I’m very sorry, but I decided to do one this month. So now, without going into my default over-explanation mode, let’s see what’s in season during spring.
What Foods Are In Season During Spring
In general, early in spring anything that can survive winter successfully or that grows really fast is in season. Did I explain that right? Don’t hate, I can’t talk garden language just yet. In essence, anything that’s leafy and green is in season during spring. I have an overexplaining spring food list right here and here’s the short version of what to eat during this wonderful season:
- radishes
- broccoli
- lettuce
- arugula
- spinach
- dill / parsley / mint (herbs)
- asparagus
- strawberries
- artichokes
- carrots
- scallions
- new potatoes
- celery
My favorites – tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant and cucumbers are not in season yet! They’re going to come when summer comes around. But as you’ll see – I still added some cherry tomatoes and cucumbers here and there. If you’re very strict with your seasonal diet, feel free to omit these foods and substitute them for radishes.
Healthy Spring Recipes
With all this in mind, for this 7-day meal plan I chose some great healthy spring recipes that pretty much anyone can make! Feel free to improvise and change up ingredients to what you have at home and what you like!

7-Day Healthy Spring Meal Plan
Now as you will notice with this 7-day healthy spring meal plan, I aimed for at least one salad a day. I just feel like with all the leafy greens available, this season is the perfect time to have a salad a day. It’s as if nature is telling us – eat this it’s going to help you fuel the batteries the right way. The meal plan is for two and I wrote down a note next to each recipe that you need to double or make the night before.
