18 Whole 30 Recipes That Aren’t Chicken Or Fish

Check out these easy delicious Whole 30 recipes to keep you from getting bored while on the plan.

Whole 30 Recipes: Chili with baconAre you one of the many people following a Whole 30 plan this month? 

Whole 30 is a short-term nutritional reset, designed to help you cut out the foods that might be having a negative impact on your health, restore a healthy metabolism, heal your digestive tract, and balance your immune system.

Many times people ask if I have recipes that are Whole 30 compliant. But recently, my daughter was asked if she knew of any Whole 30 recipes that aren’t chicken or fish.

Not only was her friend finding it hard to cut out certain foods, but also most of the recipes recommended to her were chicken or fish recipes. Above all her friend was getting bored with eating chicken and fish.

So I’ve rounded up eighteen Whole 30 recipes that aren’t chicken or fish. All these will work for the Whole 30 diet as they have no added sugar, grains, legumes, dairy, alcohol or unnecessary chemicals.

Just whole food ingredients and deliciousness your whole family will love (so you won’t have to cook a separate meal for them).
