Start the week with a sizzling plate of Soy Curl Fajitas with Green Pea Guacamole. These fajitas bring the heat with seasoned soy curls, colorful veggies, and creamy guacamole that gets its lusciousness from peas. Trust us—you’re going to love it!

“Whether you’re a full-fledged WFPB badass, an Omni looking to just add a few plant based meals to your diet every week, or something in between, this is the place for you.”

Next up, dig into Corn & Pinto Bean Stuffed Zucchini Boats. They’re loaded with a veggie filling and topped with a crave-worthy cheesy sauce, creating the perfect handheld yum that feels indulgent without all the fat.

Midweek calls for the Tex Mex Smash Burger and Pineapple Wedges. Juicy, marinated portobello mushrooms meet smoky spices when they’re smashed, marinated, and made into a burger so flavorful it doesn’t need mayo or cheese. Paired with a side of sweet, juicy pineapple wedges, this combo delivers big on taste and satisfaction. 

“I have been a CFDG subscriber for many years and I can’t imagine what I would cook/eat without it. I love the structure and yumminess of the meal plans. It’s good for my health, the planet, the animals and even my marriage!!”

– Laurie Jaffe Bernhard, Meal Plan Club member

Then there’s the Mexican-style Corn Soup with Corn Relish and Tortilla Chips—a comforting soup made from corn, spices, and a ton of flavor, topped with a crunchy, zesty relish that screams fresh and fun. Serve with a side of homemade tortilla chips and you won’t believe you aren’t at your favorite cantina.

Round out the week with the Cantina Beans & Rice Bowl. It’s a hearty mix of black beans, seasoned rice, and a rainbow of toppings along with crisp lettuce and decadent cheesy sauce. Simple ingredients, big flavor. Yum!

“After just 4 months of eating CFDG plant-based meal plans, pre-diabetic status turned around.”
