“Proper weight management is like any other skill: You need someone to teach you how to do it properly, then you need lots of practice.”
– Brad Pilon
When it comes to dinner, I’ve found that keeping things simple is the key to staying on track. A few ideas written down ahead of time can take the stress out of mealtime and help you feel more prepared all week long.
That’s why every Friday I share what I’m cooking in my own kitchen — WW-friendly meals that are straightforward, cozy, and satisfying without a lot of fuss.
Something to Think About
Think of healthy eating as practice, not perfection. Every meal is a chance to get a little better at the skill of taking care of yourself.
WW Dinner Plan for the Week (Oct 6–12)
Here’s what’s on my menu this week:
- Cheeseburger Pasta One Pot Skillet — comfort food made lighter, family-approved.
- Slow Cooker Southwest Chicken Soup — hearty, zesty, and perfect for fall evenings.
- Bisquick Sausage Vegetable Pie — a simple, savory classic with a healthy twist.

Martha, I’ve been reading and trying to modify your recipes for several years. Much easier when I was fixing for 4 (dinner and leftovers for lunch) but now it’s just me. Do you have a plan for 1-2 people? Breakfast and lunch are pretty easy but I like to actually cook for supper. Do you have (or recommend) a cookbook or meal plan for 1-2). I had bariatric surgery 3 yrs ago and have tried keto etc but find WW recipes to be more rounded and nutritional). I appreciate you
Hi Julie,
Here are links to my recipes for 1 and 2: https://simple-nourished-living.com/category/food-health/cooking-for-1/
https://simple-nourished-living.com/category/food-health/cooking-for-2/. Many of my recipes can be divided by 2 or 3 or 4 to make small quantities. If you want assistance with determining the amounts to make a smaller batch of any specific recipes let me know and I will do my best to help. All the best, ~Martha
