Gourmet Plant-Based Meal Plan

Our Kick-ass Kidney Bean & Rice Bowl is full of tender kidney beans seasoned to perfection, sauerkraut, a creamy dairy-free cheesy sauce, and avocado. Its yummy flavors are reminiscent of Polish classics.

Delicious Creamy Cannellini & Veggie Chowder and Southern-style Cornbread Muffins is packed with potatoes, lima beans, spinach, and cannellini beans. Served with tender cornbread muffins on the side for a warm, filling meal.

Pan-roasted beans and broccoli hang out with simple roasted butternut squash in our Roasted Butternut Squash Couscous Bowl with Smoky Paprika Sauce. The Smoky Paprika Sauce is a member-favorite for a reason. Check it out!

It’s a big, comforting bowl of deliciousness! One of those recipes that might seem ho-hum when you read it, but it packs a flavor punch!

The Sweet & Smoky Black Bean Burgers feature a warm pita pocket stuffed with cheesy sauce, avocado, and our yummy veggie burgers. They’re served alongside a fun twist on a vegan Waldorf salad with apple, celery, grapes, and walnuts for good vibes.

Our Quick Curried Chickpeas over Lemon Parsley Rice contains all the warming flavors you’re dreaming of in a loaded bowl overflowing with plant based goodness! 

Bonus recipe alert! Fall in love with our Peanut Butter & Dark Chocolate Scones, which are fun at afternoon tea, brunch, or for dessert. Yum!

I make these so often I don’t even need the recipe anymore! They are a weekly treat at our house and they go fast.
