If you’re working to lose weight, your diet is just as important (if not more so) than your exercise routine. It’s not just about sticking to a strictly regimented meal plan; it’s about changing the way you look at food. Many of us make dinner the largest and heaviest meal of the day. In reality, for optimum weight loss, dinner should be healthful and light, just enough to tide you over until morning. That’s why you’ll want to bookmark these 13 guilt-free dinner recipes.
The ideal dinner for weight loss is made up of a healthy portion of low-fat protein, like fish or chicken, some combination of fruits and veggies, like a green salad, and a healthy carbohydrate like whole-grain bread or quinoa. You won’t find any heavy cooking oils or refined sugar in our recipes, just clean ingredients that give your body the nutrients it needs while also flushing out fat.
Mix these 13 healthy dinners for weight loss into your weeknight recipe rotation. They’ve been taste-tested and approved by our team and followers, so you know your family will love them.
