Dirty Salad Plant-Based Meal Plan

Dirty Salad is a plant based meal plan that’s a veritable love letter to the flexible, delicious, and often overlooked salad. In fact, when we first released this plan, there was a good deal of pushback among members who were nervous the plan wouldn’t be satisfying or enjoyable. However, it became one of our most loved meal plans and a member favorite. This nutrient-dense plan is much more than “just salads.” Give it a try and see for yourself.

Those that were unsure about doing a “salad week,” I have been batching today, and these are no ordinary salads!!! The Quinoa Fruit Salad is officially going into my breakfast rotation. Don’t skip the chili powder. This salad was amazing.

What’s on the gourmet menu this week

This plan kicks off with White Bean “Crab” Salad Stuffed Tomatoes and Quinoa Fruit Salad with Citrus Spice Tahini Sauce. Flower-sliced tomatoes are stuffed with creamy hearts of palm and white bean “crab” salad and drizzled with a luscious mustard sauce. Served with a fresh quinoa fruit salad, it’s a perfect meal.

Even after nine months on the meal plans, I am still blown away by the flavor surprises. Was just finishing up the #DirtySalad, putting the crab salad together. While it was in the food processor, I already thought we’d hate it and wondered what else I could do with this mixture. Once it was all put together, I cautiously tasted it, and OMG, it was delicious. The same thing with the dressing for the fruit salad–I couldn’t imagine it would be good, but it’s great. Can’t wait to plate this tonight!
