I think you’re going to love this collection of 21 Day Fix dinner recipes! If you’re new to the portion fix lifestyle, these easy (and super delicious) recipes can make all the difference between success and falling off the wagon (been there, done that, and it sucks).

Working out is great…but unfortunately, I can do all the burpees on God’s green earth* but I STILL won’t fit in my skinny jeans if I don’t cut back on the food!

UPDATE 9/26/2018 – NEW RECIPES ADDED, with portion fix container counts!

Today, I am ALL IN for a hopefully redeeming round of the fix – and I’m working on some new posts for me fellow fixers! I want to start with this one – 21 Day Fix dinner recipes – because I know dinner is where I fail the hardest (be sure to check out my tools and tips for success at the bottom of this post – I have had a lot of success with this program, despite my most recent slip-up).

All of these recipes include the container counts right next to them (with a couple of exceptions, because, math), and they all look easy – many even look easier than the 21 Day Fix Crock Pot recipes I shared before.

You’ll love these family-friendly 21 Day Fix dinner recipe ideas!
