A 30-Day Healthy Whole Foods Menu

If you’re trying to eat healthier and focus on real, whole foods, one of the hardest parts is figuring out what to make day after day. To take the guesswork out of it, I put together a 30-day healthy whole foods menu using recipes from HollandHouseEatery.com that prioritize simple ingredients, balanced meals, and flavors you’ll actually crave.

This menu leans heavily on proteins, vegetables, healthy fats, and naturally flavorful ingredients — without feeling restrictive or boring. It’s designed to support everyday wellness, whether you’re resetting your habits, cooking more at home, or just looking for fresh inspiration.

Note: Many of these recipes align with Whole30-style principles, but this plan is intended as a flexible whole-foods guide. Adjust ingredients as needed to fit your personal preferences, dietary needs, or pantry staples.

How This Healthy Whole Foods Menu Works

  • Breakfasts repeat intentionally to keep mornings simple

  • Lunches will rely on leftovers or quick-assembly meals

  • Dinners are flavor-forward and family-friendly

  • Recipes marked as modified simply require small swaps (like skipping cheese, honey, or non-compliant sauces)

You can mix and match days as needed — this is a guide, not a rulebook.

Prep Ahead for Success

  • Have fruits and veggies washed and cut for easy snacking.

  • Stick to olive oil, lemon, vinegar, herbs, and compliant condiments. Make dressings once and use all week.

  • Cook meatballs and soups in batches.

  • Pre-chop salad veggies.

Eating healthy doesn’t have to feel restrictive. With a little planning and flavorful recipes, it can actually feel nourishing and satisfying.

Take note of how you feel as the days go on. Do you have more energy? Less bubbly gut? Sleep better? Have your sugar cravings subsided? At first, your body will go through a little hangover from eliminating sugar and processed foods. Scary isn’t it?! But soon you’ll feel invincible. Stick with it! Changing habits can feel hard. But I promise you there’s a lot harder things to go through than eating healthy. It’s a mind game you can win.
