We all know that consuming fish helps to reduce calories while building lean muscle. The 7 days pescatarian meal plan to lose weight we have here will help you to lose weight naturally by cutting out sugar, high fats, and processed foods from your diet.
Here is a pescatarian meal plan for fish lovers! I love the taste of grilled and smoked pescatarian meats and fish. Its got plenty of great inspiration and recipes, a great meal planning calendar, and lots of great recipes to start with.
I really enjoy being outdoors, so this gives me the opportunity to go out and have some fun with my friends and family. I love cooking in different ways, so this gives me plenty of leeways.
This is my favorite dish among my friends, family, and even fellow campers! It is a simple pescatarian meal plan that includes some wonderful seafood dishes. The first dish I will share is grilled shrimp.
It is really easy to make, and very tasty. It can be served as it is, with bread, or with some wonderful pasta as an additional treat. I highly recommend grilling shrimp if you have not yet tried it.
Another excellent dish that goes along with my pescatarian meal plan is a delicious mushroom omelet. To make it, you just need some good fresh mushrooms, some mushrooms soaking in milk, eggs, garlic, onions, and some pepper.
You just mix all of these ingredients together, heat them up in the oven, and you're ready to start cooking. It is pretty simple cooking, and the spices add a lot of flavors.
Shrimp is another great vegetable that goes well with the pescatarian diet. Shrimp is low calorie, high in protein, high in calcium, and full of great nutrients as well.
You can absolutely cook the shrimp in many different ways and can find dozens of delicious recipes online.
Just use your imagination! The wonderful thing about this seafood meal is that you can eat as much as you want and still not gain a single pound of weight!
Another good dish to accompany shrimp is kale chips. Again, there are hundreds of delicious recipes online, and you can certainly get creative here.
A couple of good things about kale chips is that they are relatively cheap, and you can prepare this dish quickly. Just add some barbecue sauce, some baked beans, some cheese, and you are all set.
I am going to end by sharing one more delicious recipe for another one of the best meals on the 28-day pescatarian meal plans.
This is creamy goat cheese soup. To make it, just combine some cream cheese, some goat cheese, some chopped veggies, some chicken broth, and some dried thyme.
Give it a little over a whole week, let it soak for at least a full day, then throw in your greens and enjoy.
Now you know what foods are included in the ideal pescatarian meal plan. There are other foods that can be considered healthy but will also help you lose weight. These foods include salmon, tuna, trout, mussels, and clams.
What you will need for this delicious Greek yogurt recipe is about a tablespoon of sour cream, a quarter cup of nonfat yogurt, about two cups of skim milk, and about two tablespoons of grated cheese.
Simply mix all these ingredients together, whip it up in a food processor, and pour it into a saucepan. Bring to a boil, and simmer for about two minutes. Turn off the heat and remove from the heat.
Place all ingredients into a mixing bowl, mix them up nice and fluffy, and enjoy your nutritious and tasty homemade meal.
Quinoa Asparagus Meal Plan This healthy quinoa recipe is packed with flavor and nutrition. This is the perfect addition to any diet.
I like to start my dinners with a bowl of quinoa soup in advance and refrigerate until serving time. If you have a quinoa cooker, you can also cook this and store it in the fridge until the next day.
Vegetarian Breakfast Recipes Salads and side dishes are always a great choice for a starter on any day of the week.
But don't forget about breakfast recipes for the day. A pescatarian meal plan with a variety of healthy and delicious options is the perfect way to start your day and get your metabolism revved up for the day.
There are many delicious vegetarian breakfast recipes available on the internet, in cookbooks, and in print.
The first thing you need to do is decide which category of vegetarian you fall under. Then you can determine how many meals you would like to create and how often you would like to create them.
Once you have your idea of how many meals and snacks you would like to create each day, you can start your pescatarian meal prep plan.
If you are creating a huge meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner), it might be wise to purchase a deli slicer and cut the ingredients into the desired sizes.
This will allow you to portion the items evenly for consumption. Once you have your meals prepared, you can enjoy the delicious meals and delicious snacks.
7 Days Pescatarian Meal Plan to Lose Weight
Table of Contents
DAY 1
BREAKFAST: AVOCADO BAKED EGGS (468 CALORIES)
Avocado is the perfect morning meal. It’s high in fat (good fat) and will set you up perfectly for the day ahead (way more than sugary cereal!).
LUNCH: MORROCAN STUFFED SWEET POTATO SKINS (362 CALORIES)
These can be made up the night before (or even a few days before) and stored in the refrigerator. They’re packed full of protein and are really cheap to make.
DINNER: THAI MASSAMAN CURRY (669 CALORIES)
We eat a lot of Thai food because it’s both really filling and really healthy. You don’t even need to serve up a massaman curry with rice because the potatoes will more than fill you up.
DAY 2
BREAKFAST: 3X SPANISH EGG MUFFINS (309 CALORIES)
LUNCH: MAC N CHEESE (382 CALORIES)
Who doesn’t love mac n cheese? This recipe has cauliflower and spinach within it to boost the nutritional value. It’ll definitely do the trick of keeping you full until the evening.
DINNER: BAKED TILAPIA WITH PARMESAN CRUST (517 CALORIES)
Tilapia is probably one of the most cost-effective fish to purchase in your weekly shop. It helps that it’s absolutely delicious, too. This recipe, in particular, is very easy to make and goes really well with each serving of rice, quinoa, couscous, or even a side-salad.
DINNER (SIDE): BOWL OF RICE (205 CALORIES)
DAY 3
BREAKFAST: HUEVOS RANCHEROS (149 CALORIES)
One batch of huevos rancheros will get you through a whole week, and it also doubles up as a great lunch meal. It stores well in the refrigerator and a 60-second blast in the microwave will get it heated back up to perfection (so you don’t need to worry about cooking in the morning!).
SNACK: CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PROTEIN BALL (421 CALORIES)
Focusing on getting your protein intake right is really important when you’re following a pescetarian diet. These protein balls take a grand total of 10 minutes to make and will last you for a good couple of weeks to snack on when you’re hungry.
LUNCH: MACKEREL & GREEN BEAN SALAD (408 CALORIES)
Possibly my favorite salad to take into the office for lunch, the runny eggs create a delicious dressing and the nutritional value from the mackerel alone gives you 52% of your daily protein intake.
DINNER: TERIYAKI STIR FRY (293 CALORIES)
When you’re eating pescetarian, there’s a strong tendency to default to fish and seafood every night. This can work out really expensive, so simply vegetarian meals like this will help balance your diet and your budget!
DAY 4
BREAKFAST: AVOCADO & SAUTÉED MUSHROOM TOAST (688 CALORIES)
Avocado. Mushrooms. Sour Dough. Need I say any more? This is breakfast heaven for me. If you’d rather tone down the carb intake then you can easily just remove the toast and it will still be delicious.
Chickpeas are a solid source of protein and they’re one of those ingredients that boh stay fresh for a long time and are cheap to buy. I’d put them into the ‘store cupboard essentials’ category. They go perfectly with feta and tomato and that makes this salad simply delicious.
DINNER: VEGAN RED LENTIL CURRY (266 CALORIES)
It’s worth remembering that you don’t need to follow the vegan diet to eat vegan food. We eat a lot of lentils and this is a curry, in particular, is one of our favorites.
DINNER (SIDE): GARLIC & CORIANDER NAAN (322 CALORIES)
This is an optional side, but it’s really tasty with lentil curry. Other options can be tandoori rotis or papadums. Equally, the lentil curry will be more than enough on its own if you just increase the serving side.
DAY 5
BREAKFAST: FRESH SARDINE FILLETS ON TOAST (484 CALORIES)
Sardines are another super-cheap fish that are full of omega-3 fats that are ideal to eat near the start of the day. When you buy the sardines fresh and fillet them or get sustainably sourced tinned sardines it doesn’t really matter. If you don’t want to have them on toast then something like quinoa/couscous will work equally well.
SNACK: 2X VEGAN PROTEIN BALLS (444 CALORIES)
Focusing on getting your protein intake right is really important when you’re following a pescetarian diet. These protein balls take a grand total of 10 minutes to make and will last you for a good couple of weeks to snack on when you’re hungry.
LUNCH: ALOO GOBI WITH CHICKPEAS (261 CALORIES)
Cauliflower, cilantro, and chickpeas. This recipe couldn’t be simpler. If you’re in a hurry in the evening then this can be the perfect filling meal that doesn’t take long to create and doesn’t cost a lot.
DINNER: ROASTED TOMATO SOUP (154 CALORIES)
This is a go-to meal for whenever either of us is feeling slightly ill. Tomato soup heals all! Seriously though, we tend to eat quite a bit of soup because it lasts for a long time, can double up as lunch later in the week, and is really good for you.
DINNER (SIDE): 2X SLICES OF BREAD (200 CALORIES)
DAY 6
BREAKFAST: 3X SMOKED SALMON EGG MUFFINS (237 CALORIES)
Similar to the Spanish-style egg muffins shown above, these take very little time to make and can be done in large batches near the start of the week. Whether it’s a breakfast meal or a midday snack, these are ideal.
SNACK: 2X VEGAN PROTEIN BALLS (444 CALORIES)
Focusing on getting your protein intake right is really important when you’re following a pescetarian diet. These protein balls take a grand total of 10 minutes to make and will last you for a good couple of weeks to snack on when you’re hungry.
LUNCH: CURRIED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP (223 CALORIES)
Soup is great for saving money because you can use up a bunch of vegetables that are about to go bad in the next few days (as opposed to seeing them go in the bin). We tend to eat soup near the end of the week for this reason, and curried soup, in particular, can work with all kinds of veggies.
DINNER: TUNA PESTO PASTA (527 CALORIES)
DAY 7
BREAKFAST: 2X BLUEBERRY & LEMON MUFFINS (484 CALORIES)
I can’t think of many things that will go better with your morning coffee than a blueberry and lemon muffin. Depending on how greedy you’re feeling you can go with either one or two muffins.
LUNCH: UDON NOODLE SOUP (366 CALORIES)
This recipe looks more complicated than it actually is. Noodle soups in particular are packed full of flavor and are the perfect way to fit more iron into your diet.
DINNER: SWEET & STICKY SALMON KEBABS (311 CALORIES)
If you’re having friends over then we’d highly recommend making these kebabs. Bonus points for barbecuing them. That said, broiling them will do just fine and they’ll still taste amazing.
DINNER (SIDE): 4X CARROT HUMMUS CUCUMBER CUPS (382 CALORIES)
Carrot hummus is available in most grocery stores but if you want to go and make your own then it won’t take you long at all. These cucumber cups are both adorable and a perfect compliment to salmon.
