Meal Plan: Veggie Delight

Watch the video from Dave of this meal plan.

Hello and welcome to this plan, the Veggie Delight!

If I had to name a recipe that I enjoyed the most then it is probably the Chickpea Pancake recipe! You might think ‘uuh, that’s wayy too much onion for me in one go’, but it works really nicely, I promise! Caramelised onion and feta is soooo good!

I’d love to hear what is your favorite recipe from this week? Let me know!

Enjoy the recipes!

Top tips:

  • Bulgur Porridge: No mango around? Use any fruit you like.
  • Day 3/4: Our new recipe, the High Protein Oatmeal contains a scoop of protein powder! This is why you’ll find a smaller protein shake and an alternative snack idea (the edamame snack) on those days. Let me know what you think of this!
  • The White Bean Salad is absolutely ideal to pack and go for work/day out!
  • Chickpea Pancakes: They taste best if you make them fresh, one serving each day. You can also re-heat the chickpea pancake, but it loses some flavor.
  • The Speedy Chickpea Stew can be kept in a thermos flask (or similar) and easily transported then eaten warm!
  • Pasta Arrabiata: Don’t skip the final cooking stage, it really brings out the flavours. The same goes for the little amount of sugar, unless absolutely necessary to skip.
  • Black Bean Burrito Bowl: If you do a once-a-week shopping haul make sure to get an avocado that’ll need 5 days to ripen!

Day 7 is all up to you. It’s a great day for leftovers, or if you want to go out to eat. We still recommend keeping the calories to about 1500kcal if weight loss is a priority.

You can use the ‘recipe vault’ to instantly find great replacement or additional meals, too!

And don’t forget – if you have lots of leftover ingredients in the fridge we highly recommend turning them in to Buddha Bowls or Burrito Bowls! There’s so much choice, and you can throw together virtually everything you have leftover with a tasty sauce!
