Stacy says
The Flank Steak recipe is not gluten Free. Just so you know, Soy sauce contains gluten!
Stephanie says
Ugh, thank you! I fixed it!
Joey says
There are gluten free soy sauces.
Cherie Mallynn says
They make gf soy
Rachel says
So, these "recipes" don't have any "method" for meal preparation so where do I find those instructions?
Stephanie says
Hi! Sorry for the confusion! The links to all of the full recipes are within the blog post where I also include serving tips and other info like number of servings - what's in the card is just the grocery list for the week so it's easy to print!
April says
Hi there I love these recipes!!!! I just wanted to thank you for sharing and also ask what calorie bracket these weekly plans are? Im new to the 21 day fix, and just learning how to keep track!
Stephanie says
Hi! The meal plans can be used on any bracket! Each recipe in the meal plan will give you the container counts, then you can plan the rest of the day taking your bracket into consideration. Hope that helps!
