This plant-based meal plan takes classic favorites and flips them on their head in the best way. Think familiar textures and flavors, but with fun twists that make dinner feel fresh again. It’s the kind of week where you look forward to leftovers and maybe even brag about them.

- Meal night directions. Simple instructions ensure every dish is plated to perfection, ready to tantalize your taste buds.

We’re kicking things off with the Mole-smothered Chimichanga, a total show-off in the best sense. Crispy on the outside, saucy on the inside, and layered with deep, chocolate-kissed mole notes that make every bite feel a little bit fancy. You’ll feel like you’re getting away with something.
“I took a leap 6.5 years ago and cut meat and dairy from my diet. It was just to see if I could do it, and within days I noticed a huge difference in how I felt. By the end of the week I knew this was my new lifestyle, but I was struggling with what to cook for me and my family.”
– Elaine, Meal Plan Club member

Next up, Caramelized Veggie Tacos with Tropical Salsa bring sunny-day energy to any night of the week. Sweet, sautéed veggies meet a juicy, bright salsa, and the combo just works. Its soft, crunchy, sweet, and tangy. Grab a stack of napkins and don’t apologize for the drip.

For peak cozy, the Southwestern Veggie Mango Stew and Crisp Cuke & Tomato Salad tag-team your taste buds. The stew is warm and bold, with bits of mango that pop in all the right places—unexpected, yet totally right. Then that cool, crunchy cucumber and tomato salad steps in to refresh your palate so you’re ready for round two.
“I’ve been a Meal Plan Club member for 5 years and love the feeling of accomplishment when I complete a batch session. I also love how good the meals make us feel (energy, digestion).”
– Carla, Meal Plan Club member
“I have enjoyed all the meal plans and recipes I have tried. The website is beautiful and the easiest and most fun to use of any similar one I have tried.”
– Cathy, Meal Plan Club member

The Cheddary Roasted Carrot Sammy and Warming Miso Broth are basically a hug and a high-five. The sandwich leans into roasted carrot magic with a melty, cheddary vibe that hits all the nostalgic notes. Sip the savory miso broth alongside, and suddenly dinner feels like a mini reset.
“Love the database of meals I can search when I am in the mood for a particular thing or need to bring something delicious to a potluck! The sauces are to die for!!”
– Rachel, Meal Plan Club member

Rounding it out, the Big Ass Bowl with Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing is your “throw it together, crush it, feel great” moment. Piled high with veggies, grains, and big textures, it’s all about that creamy, zesty dressing tying everything together. You’ll want to put it on everything. This is a fair warning.
“Have been batching using the meal plans every week since 2017. They are great and we get different tasty meals each week. The grocery list reduces waste as we know exactly what to buy for the week.“
– Gemmy, Meal Plan Club member
