7-Day Mediterranean Diet Meal Plan

Use this as a planning framework rather than a medical or calorie-specific prescription.

The weekly structure

MealRepeatable formula
BreakfastWhole grain or yogurt + fruit + nuts/seeds
LunchVegetables + beans/fish/poultry + whole grain + olive-oil dressing
DinnerVegetables + protein + whole grain/starchy vegetable
Snack, if wantedFruit, nuts, yogurt, hummus or vegetables

Seven-day rotation

Rotate rather than reinvent: alternate bean-based meals, fish/seafood, and poultry or other suitable proteins; vary vegetables and grains; reuse cooked components at lunch the next day.

Prep before day one

Cook one whole grain, prepare a pot of beans or lentils, wash vegetables, make a simple olive-oil dressing and portion a few grab-and-go snacks.
