Welcome to the Once a Month Meals Whole30 Menu

The guidelines for this menu are based on the the Whole30 program founded by Melissa Hartwig.

What is Whole30?

Whole30 is a 30-day eating plan that temporarily removes specific foods and food groups that could potentially be having a negative impact on your health. By avoiding these foods for 30 days, participants are able to gain an understanding of if and how any of these foods affect their day to day life and overall health.

How We Label for Whole30:
