Medifast Recipes


This Medifast Recipes section owes a huge debt of gratitude to the Medifast community. I have tried my best to give proper credit where it is due, but some of these recipes were created a long time ago. I have broken them down into a few simple sections for ease-of-browsing.

Lean and Green Recipes

Lean and Green meals are an essential part of the Medifast 5-1 plan. But, unless you are an experienced cook it can be difficult to come up with ideas. This list of recipes will get you started!

The Bakery

You can use the pre-packaged Medifast foods to make all kinds of delicious foods including muffins and pancakes!

Shakes and Smoothies

Are you getting tired of Dutch Chocolate shakes? The basic Medifast shakes are the jumping-off point for these delicious recipes.

Soups and Chili

There’s nothing better than a hot cup of soup on a cold winter day. These recipes will jazz up the Medifast soups in a variety of different ways.

Update: I am continuing to update the collection of recipes. Thanks to everybody who has sent in suggestions. If I haven’t added your recipe yet, I will get to it very soon. Also, be sure tocheck out this page for Medifast Recipes Videos. They are pretty cool, and I will be adding to this collection as well.

Cookie Recipe –Soft cookies (reminds me of banana bread)

1 package peach oatmeal
1 package banana shake
1 package egg
Splenda for sweet taste
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp chopped walnuts
3/4 water add slowly (dough will be more runny than normal cookie dough

combine dry ingredients
add water, you can be the judge on how much I actually put a little less than 3/4 c in my cookies. Mix and let sit for 5 minutes as it will thicken. Spoon on to cookie sheet that has been sprayed with pam or you can use parchment paper as well. (have not tried myself) Bake at 350 for 15 min. You be the judge, bake til cookies are brown on top. Makes 6 cookies. Enjoy 3 cookies a day due to the fat content of walnuts. IF you skip walnuts feel free to count 2 cookies as one medifast meal.

Tastefully Simple has a “Bacon-Bacon” spice that is delicious. My husband and I use it in the eggs and over salad.

I have recently “re-started” medifast (lost 16 pound in one month before and didn’t transition and gained it back. :( my fault). This time, I was looking for a better way to make muffins that had a better “muffin like” texture than the oatmeal recipe I have used in the past. I was super pleased to find that medifast not only has brownies, but pancake mix as well! My mind went straight to baking with those. I still love the brownies and the pancakes on their own, but I enjoy making muffins with them to switch it up.

Chocolate chip mini muffins:

1 packet choc chip pancake mix
1 packet splenda
2-3 oz water
1/8 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp vanilla (or banana for banana choco chip!) medifast pudding mix (maybe work without this option)

bake @ 350 for 15-16 min- makes 3 mini muffins or 1 regular muffin

I have also done the same recipe above but added a packet of the medifast brownie mix and a couple more tbsp water- makes 6- 7 mini muffins that are more like chocolate choco chip muffins.

I know this may not be very creative to make muffins out of the pancakes, however the texture is perfect muffin texture!
