Take it outside

June Meal Plan

June 18 may be national picnic day, but we think you should take your meals outside all month! Whether you’re hiking on a trail or in your own backyard, these sunshiny days are perfect for picnics or nights on the patio. This month’s meal plan focuses on picnic-basket friendly dishes, so you can enjoy the great outdoors and a healthy and delicious lunch too! Thanks to our friends at Revive Wellness for developing this nutritionally balanced meal plan.
