It\u2019s filled with protein-packed chicken, fiber-rich black beans and nutritious veggies for a meal that keep you satisfied. The crunchy tortillas on top add a nice texture. Garnish each serving with one-quarter of an avocado and serve with a whole-wheat baguette for even more fiber and healthy fats.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Monday: Chickpea Pasta with Mushrooms &amp; Kale  <\/p>\n<p> Greg DuPree<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This pasta dish comes together in just three steps and is ready in 30 minutes, making it perfect for busy weeknights. This vegan meal is high in protein thanks to the chickpea pasta, which also adds fiber along with the kale and mushrooms. Seasoning with thyme brings all the flavors together for a balanced and delicious meal.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Tuesday: Baked Halibut with Brussels Sprouts &amp; Quinoa  <\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_17-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> I love recipes that let your oven do the bulk of the work, especially as the weather cools off. Roasting the vegetables and fish on separate sheet pans allows you to stagger the cooking so everything is done at the same time. The herby quinoa salad adds flavor and fiber to the meal.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Wednesday: Chili-Topped Sweet Potatoes  <\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_21-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Try a fun twist on a classic baked potato by opting for the fiber-packed sweet potato and topping it with homemade chili. The chili can be made ahead of time for quick lunches later. Get creative with the toppers\u2014cilantro and jalape\u00f1os can add spice and brightness to the dish.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Thursday: Feta, Kale &amp; Pear Salad  <\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_25-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This beautiful dish is not just visually appealing, but it\u2019s also packed with flavor. Roasting the pepitas, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds adds depth and texture to this salad. Plus, pears and kale are in season right now, making it the perfect fall main. Massaging the kale helps soften it and makes it less bitter so it\u2019s more pleasant to eat. To make it a meal, serve it with a whole-wheat baguette.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Friday: Marry Me White Bean Soup  <\/p>\n<p>Photographer: Morgan Hunt Ward, Prop Stylist: Phoebe Hauser, Food Stylist: Emily Nabors Hall.<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Borrowing inspiration from the viral Marry Me Chicken recipe, this soup combines sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, cream and Parmesan cheese with hearty white beans for a gut-healthy dish. Beans are a great source of plant-based protein and also deliver fiber, making this soup extra filling.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> I wish you all a great week, and I hope you enjoy this dinner plan.
