Who is 52 Weeks for?

52 Weeks is for busy, single professionals who are cooking and eating for one. It’s for those balancing a career, friends, family, travel, dating, and who knows what else. It’s for people who are done with diets and are ready to find a sustainable way to cook and eat. If you have a partner, spouse, roommate, or friend that you cook with or for feel free to double the plan.

What is so special about 52 Weeks?

52 Weeks will help you simplify your meal planning, make mealtime a lot easier, and alleviate a good chunk of confusion around ‘What's for dinner?’ (or breakfast or lunch). Plus, all 52 Weeks recipes are created by a Registered Dietitian, meaning you can rest assured that your recipes are balanced, wholesome, nutrient-dense, and nonrestrictive.

How does it work?

Why did you create 52 Weeks?

I’m a big believer that food is a platform for sharing love. With all the fad diets, crash cleanses, and food trends out there, I wanted to create a safe space that would promote self-love and a sustainable way of eating. I created 52 Weeks in hopes of helping others improve their relationship with food and, ultimately, themselves.

I’m very comfortable in the kitchen, and 52 Weeks allows me to combine my appetite for food with my nutrition knowledge and culinary skills. 52 Weeks is a culmination of many of the projects I’d worked on in the past, like meal plan and recipe development, nutrition coaching, and food and health tech. It’s the platform that combines my work experience with the research I’ve conducted on the psychology of consumption and behavior change.

A lot of support and everything you need to make practical changes to your diet. Speaking of diet, I want you to know this isn't a new, trendy diet, cleanse or crash program. It's about shifts in behavior and creating a life you can maintain. We build upon success and navigate barriers together.

With 52 Weeks, you'll get everything you need to improve your diet and tackle the confusion around 'What to eat?'

Frequently Asked Questions

See this content in the original post

Q: What is batch cooking?

A: Batch cooking is a great tool for meal prep. It allows you to easily assemble meals when you're pressed for time. Generally, we'll batch cook or prepare a few complex carbs, 1-2 proteins, and some fruit and vegetables. A few sauces, spreads, and dips will round out the process and allow for variety throughout the week.

Q: How is 52 Weeks different from all the free recipes online?

A: Sourcing individual recipes online can be a stressful, time-consuming process that often leads to 40 minute recipes and lots of tossed food. It’s time to stop throwing away your time and money (reminder — they’re limited resources).

Q: What kind of foods can I expect?

A: 52 Weeks is a plant-based meal plan program derived from the Mediterranean diet. Focus is placed on fresh, seasonal, whole foods. All ingredients are minimally processed, and no refined sugar is included. Chicken and seafood are used more than lamb and beef, and nearly 50% of the meals are vegetarian.

52 Weeks meals are filled with fiber, lean protein, and healthy fats — they’re anti-inflammatory, energizing, and delicious. They’re also packed with color and flavor to improve your health and keep you interested in whole-food-based eating and home cooking.

Some favorite dishes include lemon chicken, cauliflower tacos, a vegetarian mezze platter, baked white fish with tomatoes, kimchi fried rice, and, of course, seasonal market salads.
