Gourmet Plant-Based Meal Plan
Start things off with Cheeseburger Pasta Bake and Dragon-Berry-Melon Salad. The pasta bake is cheesy (without the dairy), hearty, and packed with all the flavors of a classic burger, while the salad is a sweet, juicy mix that’s a perfect, refreshing side.

Next up, Supreme Crunchy Wraps with Creamy Salsa Dip and Bell Pepper Dippers are a total hit! Think crispy wraps stuffed with all the good stuff, plus a creamy dip and peppers to keep the crunch going.
“The kiddo actually ate it! Without coercion! She ate it as the recipe is written (minus the jalapeños), but I love that you can adjust the fillings to your liking. I’ll definitely be storing this in my favorites so I can play with the recipe. :)“

“These are so good! My husband was skeptical about a Tex-Mex wrap with butternut squash, but he was soon won over.“

For a cozy night in, Cowboy Potato Soup and Peachy Keen Toast is the way to go. The soup is thick, creamy, and loaded with every kid’s favorite veggie: potatoes. The toast brings a little sweetness to the table to round things out.
“Delicious! 3 kids and omni partner very happy! Loved the peach toast, which was a surprise ❤“

Then, get everyone involved with Build-Your-Own Grains & Veggie Bowl with Sweet Mustard Sauce. It’s a fun, hands-on meal where everyone can pile up their favorite grains and veggies, then drizzle on that tangy mustard sauce. Yum!
Happy Nuggets with Sweet Mustard Sauce, Stovetop Un-baked Beans and Crispy Apple is a total crowd-pleaser meal. The nuggets are golden and crunchy, the beans are saucy and satisfying, and the apple adds a fresh, crisp finish.
“The sweet mustard sauce is the bomb. This is still one of our favorites in a family of omnis and picky eaters.”

And for a little extra treat, the bonus Strawberry Lemonade Ice Pops are the perfect way to cool down and end the day on a sweet note, no refined sugar required.
“Absolutely scrumptious!! Got rave reviews from vegans and non-vegans alike!”
Heidi, Meal Plan Club member
“Wow! This is seriously the best popsicle we have ever tasted! The lemon creaminess was really good mixed into our farm-stand strawberries.”
