Year Round – Veggie Vitality

Hi there!

For this meal plan we’re looking at 87.5g protein on pretty much exactly 1500kcal per day. If you have the extra snack for weight maintenance, you’ll get 109g of protein in just under 2000kcal per day.

If I had to pick one favorite, it would probably the Vegan Fake Lo Mein. It’s just such an easy weeknight recipe. It’s a ‘fake recipe’ because we deliberately don’t require ingredients that you would only get in an Asia store – and it still works very nicely.

Leftovers

You’ll find one very typical leftover recipe at the end of the week: the Easy Vegetable Frittata. Use up any vegetables you like instead of the ones called for in the recipe. It’ll still work nicely.

You could also change up the Couscous Bowl in the evening to your liking.

I hope you like the recipes!

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.

Recipe Tips:

• Vegan Noatmeal: This one can easily be made the night before
• Tomato Mozzarella Bread: Skip the bread if you like – the cheese and tomatoes are still fantastic on their own!
• Mexican Style Breakfast Wraps: Coriander divides camps – if you’re a lover add some to the wraps at the end. If you’re not, don’t! It’s also delicious served with a dollop of creme fraiche or sour cream!
• Lentil Tabbouleh goes nicely with hummus and flatbread! 🙂
• Vegetable Lo Mein: Add a splash of water or two to the pan to make sure the dish won’t dry out

The rest was pretty straight forward to prepare!

Meal Prep: These recipes can be made ahead.

• Vegan Noatmeal
• Mexican Style Breakfast Wraps (prep the night before, but keep the yoghurt separate)
• Lentil Tabbouleh (prep the night before, it’ll be even more flavorful that way)
• Vegetable Lo Mein
• Apple Inc. Overnight Oats
• Vegetable Frittata
• Mediterranean Couscous Bowl

Freezable:

• Mexican Style Breakfast Wraps. When re-heating them, ideally finish them off in a pan or oven so the wraps regain crispiness.
• Lentils with Vegetables
• Vegetable Lo Mein
• Vegetable Frittata

Vegan Alternatives

• Breakfast: Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding is wonderfully chocolaty!
• Lunch: Try out this Thai Quinoa Salad.
• Dinner: How about this African Inspired Peanut Soup?

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!
