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!
