Free Meal Plan for Vegetarian Beginners
Hi there, Hauke here sharing this free beginner meal plan with you!
Of course we all love to write our own reviews, but I have to say this is might be my favorite meal plan to date!
We’ve made sure we used only easy and delicious recipes. Also we had an eye on the protein, which should help any beginner vegetarian to make the transition away from meat easier.
A few important Meal Plan FAQs
- 1 Person: This meal plan is for one person, but can be adjusted to as many people as you like.
- Cook Once, Eat Twice: This means cook one day and have easy leftovers the next day.
- One Grocery Haul: Our meal plans are designed for one shopping tour, but can easily be split.
- The Shopping List updates automatically and can be printed out.
- Swap out Recipes: you need to login or create a free account, because that’s where your own plans are stored.
Alrighty, now without further ado on to the meal plan!

Top tips:
- Healthy Protein Baked Oats: Can be made ahead the night before, so you can hit snooze one more time in the morning
- Arugula Lentil Salad from Heaven: Ideally store the croutons in a separate container to keep them crunchy for next day’s lunch.
- Bean and Pasta Casserole: if you don’t have kale available in your area, spinach or swiss chard are good replacements.
- Creamy Broccoli Pasta: Ideally use frozen broccoli, if you only do one grocery haul.
- Fresh herbs last for longer in an airtight container with damp kitchen paper inside. Up to two weeks, in fact!
Day 7 is all up to you. It’s a great day for leftovers, or if you want to go out to eat.
And don’t forget – if you have lots of leftover ingredients in the fridge we highly recommend turning them in to Buddha Bowls, Burrito Bowls or Roasted Veggie Dishes! There’s so much choice, and you can throw together virtually everything you have leftover with a tasty sauce!
Females/Males
Current advice suggests active females and sedentary males need about 2,000 calories per day. This is exactly what the meal plan provides.
If you are a less active female, think about skipping a few snacks.
If you are an active male consider having bigger and/or more snacks
