Perfect for anyone looking for Thermomix Recipes for Weight Loss.
Hi! It’s Sian here… It has come to my attention that the Weekly Meal Planner Bonus that you receive when buying ‘The Healthy Mix’ has been forgotten. Make sure you download the actual Weekly Meal Planner template with your eBook and print out the blank template to build your own 😉
This 7 Day Meal Plan is designed for use with the Skinnymixers ‘The Healthy Mix’ Cookbook. This 7 Day Healthy Thermomix Recipe Meal Plan is family friendly and flexible for different dietary needs.
The following are base recipes, intentionally kept simple so that you can adapt the menu plan to your requirements. Bulk out meals with seasonal vegetables and salads.
Prior to starting you will want to check out the ‘Starting From Scratch’ section of the book to make any of the spice mixes required and some Stock Concentrate. Typically I keep Chicken and Beef Stock Concentrates in the freezer for recipes. Don’t be afraid of the salt in them as you only use a spoonful per recipe and that is where the flavour is.
MONDAY
Breakfast – Fig & Pistachio Overnight Oats
Whether you like to eat your overnight oats cold or warm, these make the perfect no thinking required breakfast. They will store for up to 4 days in an airtight container in the fridge. In the book there is a Gluten Free and Super Skinny variation, however this is the perfect base recipe to adapt to your own tastes. Personally I like to flavour mine with vanilla powder, dried cherries and shredded coconut.

TUESDAY
Breakfast – Banoffee Smoothie
This is a great filling recipe, perfect for anyone that needs that cup of coffee in the morning. Don’t like coffee or want to share with the kids? There is a chocolate smoothie suggestion in the book. If you are LCHF, you are able to replace the banana/maple with banana protein powder and can add avocado for an extra healthy fat boost.

Lunch – Healthy Chicken Caesar Salad
If you haven’t made the Chicken Caesar Salad from THM yet, then rush to the kitchen ASAP. With a Super Skinny variation and the ability to make an amazing dairy-free Caesar Salad dressing, this is one of my favourite salads. If you don’t feel like chicken I often make it as a side to grilled steak, but watch the portion size on this one as it is very easy to drink the dressing!

Dinner – Italian Meatballs
You will have dinner on the table in under 30 minutes and the kids will be asking to have it again and again.
Serve these with zoodles, pasta or a simple salad. In winter you can serve them atop of the Silky Sweet Potato Mash.

WEDNESDAY
Breakfast – Fig & Pistachio Overnight Oats
Overnight oats are fantastic for people like me, who when they get out of bed are immediately tending to the needs of everyone else, and forget to feed themselves.

Lunch – Creamy Chicken & Cauliflower Soup
This feels like a decadent meal, but really isn’t. Some sort of creamy magic happens when you blend cauliflower at high speeds. Mix up the different Spice Mixes from ‘The Healthy Mix’ to keep things interesting with a Greek, Italian or Mexican version. The book has Low Carb Healthy Fat and Super Skinny variations. Don’t worry if cauliflower isn’t in season as this can also be made with frozen cauliflower. Freeze any leftover portions for easy meal options.

Dinner – Quick Lamb Curry
A simple and tasty curry that you can have on the table in 30 minutes. This isn’t a spicy curry, but serving to children you can stir through some yoghurt or cream when finished.
If you are using chicken or different vegetables in the curry, simply extend the cooking time by a few more minutes.
Serve with cauliflower rice or steamed vegetables.
This recipe has Super Skinny and Low Carb Healthy Fat variations.

Loved the Banoffee? Try adding a pinch of Vanilla Powder for a Vanilla Banoffee.
Tip: Store bananas broken into pieces in the freezer for a an extra cold smoothie or freeze your espresso in ice cubes.

Lunch – San Choy Bao
So full of flavour the San Choy Bow is a very satisfying but light lunch. Incredibly fast to make, you will find it will take more time peeling the lettuce leaves intact.
There is a Low Carb variation in the book to cut down on the carbs.
This meal is also able to be made soy free 🙂
You can also bulk out this recipe by adding rice vermicelli noodles, rice or asian vegetables.

Dinner – Healthy Carbonara
Served with zoodles for a lighter option or pasta for the rest of the family, this dairy-free carbonara sauce is a great base recipe.
Personally I like to pan-fry some diced bacon and chicken seasoned with the Italian Spice Mix, then add the sauce to the pan. Served with zoodles the sauce thins out; served with pasta you may like to add some water/milk/cream – whatever you like to thin the sauce a little. It will ultimately depend on the water content of your cauliflower though 🙂
There is a Low Carb Healthy Fat variation in the book that some people like to use to give a richer flavour. I often use this sauce to make Lasagne with the Chunky Bolognese.

FRIDAY
Breakfast – Blueberry Protein Smoothie
I LOVE the Blueberry Protein Smoothie. It tastes like you are drinking a Blueberry Cheesecake and is incredibly satisfying. This smoothie will keep you fuller for longer so don’t be afraid of the cottage cheese.
If you are LCHF, this smoothie is also delicious with raspberries and no sweetener.

Lunch – Curried Egg Spread
This delicious spread is great to have with Seed Crackers (check out the recipe on the SM Entertaining Guide) or as a dip with vegetable sticks. The Babas Malaysian Meat Curry Powder truly does make the best curried eggs 😉

Dinner – Fragrant Fish Parcels
A vibrant layered cooking meal that you can bulk up by steaming extra vegetables.
Not a lover of fish? You can also make this with chicken breast. Just make sure you cook until fully cooked through (will depend on the thickness of the chicken).

SATURDAY
Breakfast – Mexican Frittata with Salsa
Something a little different to the usual bacon and eggs. This protein packed breakfast will keep you going for hours.
Finish off under the grill with a sprinkle of cheese for an added boost of fat 😉

Lunch – Seasoned Chicken Tenderloins
This is the most basic of recipes, but shows you that healthy eating doesn’t need to be tasteless. This is one of Nik’s favourite recipes for weight loss, and features regularly in the Riddle household. Season your chicken with your choice of spice mix from ‘The Healthy Mix. Serve on a bed of steamed vegetables with a squeeze of lemon for a Super Skinny meal or shred with your favourite mayo. The combinations are endless and can be frozen for meal prep.

This is definitely a family favourite and is on regular rotation. I think I’ve cooked the Greek version the most, but the Italian and Mexican versions aren’t too far behind.

Lunch – Chicken Teriyaki Burger Patties
You can prepare these delicious burgers ahead of time and are great with a side salad or in burgers. Try them with the low carb burger buns if you are watching your carb intake.

Serves per recipe: 4-6
Calories per serve: 174 (5 serves)
Dinner – Middle Eastern Lamb Cutlets
This would have to be one of the most flavour packed Skinnymixers recipes. Please make sure you watch your portion control if you are watching your weight.
This marinade is incredible on lamb cutlets, slow roasted roast lamb and baked chicken drumsticks.
Serve with a fresh salad or the jeweled coconut rice as pictured 🙂
You can make this recipe dairy free by using coconut cream in the marinade and there is also a Super Skinny variation in the cookbook.
Serves per recipe: 6-10

SNACKS
Not your typical weight loss food, but it’s fantastic to have a teaspoon on a slice of apple, if you have a sweet craving.
These are really moreish, salty savoury snacks which are a great alternative to the popular soy crisps. These are suitable for lunch boxes and the flavour can be switched up. Favourite variations in the group include rosemary/sea salt and using coconut cream to make them dairy free.
This is a yummy and filling soup, great for keeping on hand to satisfy your hunger.
