Looking to add more meatless meals to your diet? Here’s a week of vegan meals to inspire you during your weekly meal planning session!

Hi Friends!

This week’s meal plan features a week of vegan meals. I’m not vegan and probably never will be, but I do believe that everyone can benefit from adding some plant-based, nutrient-rich meals to their diet!

Menu planning? Check out this week of vegan meals for some delicious meatless breakfast, lunch, and dinner ideas!

This isn’t a meal plan I’m following and you don’t have to follow it exactly either, but here are 5 vegan breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas for you to check out. Consider adding a few of them to your meal plan for next week!


Breakfast

Menu planning? Check out this week of vegan meals for some delicious meatless breakfast, lunch, and dinner ideas!

    • Use whatever fruit and other toppings are your favorite!
  • 5 Ingredient Vegan Banana French Toast via Minimalist Baker
    • Perfect for a weekend breakfast!
  • Southwestern Tofu Scramble via The Garden Grazer
    • The perfect substitute for scrambled eggs!
  • Protein Overnight Oats via Eating Bird Food

Want to make your week even easier? Do some food prep. Here are a few ideas based on this meal plan:

  • Make a batch of the apple pie bars or a few batches of protein overnight oats to keep in the fridge for a quick grab and go breakfast.
  • Chop veggies and cook the beans you’ll need for a tofu breakfast scramble.
  • Make a batch of lentil chili and you can reheat it all week.
  • Make a big bowl of quinoa edamame salad. Eat it for lunch or add it to dinner as a side dish.
  • Bake some quinoa bean bites. Grab a few when packing your lunch to put in a wrap or on a salad.
  • Chop and cook the veggies for your Philly sandwiches for quick assembly.
  • Make a batch of chickpea burgers and freeze them. Pull them out and reheat as needed for quick weeknight dinners.
  • Make a double batch of lentil mushroom ragu and freeze half to have on hand for a busy week later!

    Thank you SO MUCH, Lindsay, for this great recipe roundup. Seriously. I’ve been trying to incorporate more vegan meals into my routine, primarily for environmental reasons but also for health reasons, too. It’s always great to have easy vegan recipes ready so I don’t have to think too hard about what to eat. Awesome content, as always. 🙂

    Love this! I’m not a vegan anymore (but still meat free) and it’s easy to get into a carb/cheese rut! These ideas are a great way to switch it up 🙂

    I always joke how much of a carnivore I am.
    and yet?
    the older I get the more I realize I just like chicken sometimes 🙂
    I could easily go vegan.
