Dairy-Free Trim Healthy Mama Meal Plan

Sharing is caring!

Can you eat dairy-free while following the Trim Healthy Mama diet? While I won’t lie that it’s a challenge, I hope the following dairy-free Trim Healthy Mama meal plan will encourage you that it is possible! 

When I first heard about the Trim Healthy Mama eating plan several years ago, I fell in LOVE with the concept.

But my initial excitement quickly faded when I read the book and realized that SO many of the recipes included dairy! At the time, our children and I were all dairy free.

I’ll admit: Back then, I simply gave up.

However, since then, so many more dairy-free products have come on the market, and eating dairy free has become easier. I’ve also learned that when there is a will, there is often a way!

I hope that the following one-week dairy-free Trim Healthy Mama meal plan will give you some meal ideas and inspiration to eat the Trim Healthy Mama way–while also maintaining a dairy-free lifestyle!

A few quick notes: 

If you’ve read Trim Healthy Mama, you know that it’s vital to switch up fuels every three hours. You will see this reflected in my meal plan. Remember to space at least 3 hours in between fuels unless you are pregnant or nursing!

Several of the linked recipes require modifications to make them dairy-free. I have made note of these modifications in this meal plan.

Without further ado, enjoy!
