Veggies Dont Bite Easy 7 Day Vegan Meal Plan With Shopping List

The So Delicious 21 Day Dairy-Free Challenge has wrapped up, but we've got some fantastic takeaways from the event! For starters, you can still sign up to get discount coupons for their dairy-free milk beverages, coconut milk, ice cream, and yogurts. Then you can come back here and enjoy the recipes and shopping list from our Dairy-Free Challenge Plant-Based Meal Plan Round-Up below. Sponsored by So Delicious, myself and eleven other talented recipe creators developed these to help merge the challenge into everyday life!

Monday's Plant-Based Meal Plan

• Breakfast: Cold-Fighting Wellness Smoothies– Kick off the week on the offensive. Add some plant-based vanilla protein powder for more staying power.
• Lunch: Greek Power Bowl with Tzatziki Dressing– Prep these bowls the night before for a quick grab 'n go meal.
• Dinner: Mushroom Stroganoff – Easy, satisfying and nourishing, this is a comforting way to reward a busy Monday. Serve with side salads of mixed greens. Store leftover noodles and sauce separately, tossing the noodles with a little oil to keep them from drying out.

Tuesday's Plant-Based Meal Plan

• Breakfast: Yogurt Waffles – Did you know waffle batter can be made the night before? You can also freeze waffles and pop them in the toaster for a very quick breakfast. Make a double-batch, freeze, and enjoy them Thursday, too!
• Lunch: Leftover Mushroom Stroganoff – pack along a side salad and some baby carrots for noshing, too!
• Dinner: Turmeric Golden Beet Soup – For a little extra protein, top this soup with crispy chickpeas (they're like croutons, but better!) and serve with chunks of whole grain bread. You can buy a whole what bread or gluten-free one, but for an easy homemade option, I love this Brown Soda Bread.

Wednesday's Plant-Based Meal Plan

• Breakfast: Coconut Chai Smoothie– You deserve a mid-week treat! Spike these with the optional vanilla protein powder to make them a fulfilling meal.
• Lunch: Quick & Easy White Bean Salad– No need to hassle; this recipe can be prepped the night before or tossed together in minutes in the morning.
• Dinner: Butternut Squash Tortellini with Sage Brown Butter– Yes, really. Unwind with this shortcut recipe that goes perfectly with steamed or roasted asparagus. Coat leftovers in the brown butter to keep them moist for lunch the next day.

Thursday's Plant-Based Meal Plan

• Breakfast: Maple Pecan Overnight Oatmeal– A sweet favorite that packs in both fiber and protein. Just be sure to make it the night before! Leftovers store well in the refrigerator (for a few days) or freezer (in single portions).
• Lunch: Leftover Butternut Squash Tortellini with Sage Brown Butter – At lunch they go wonderfully with a side salad or leftover asparagus.
• Dinner: Mashed Potato Bowls with Creamy Cashew Gravy– You enjoyed leftovers all day, so freshen things up at dinner with these fun, comforting, bowls.

Friday's Plant-Based Meal Plan

• Breakfast: Yogurt Freezer Waffles or Maple Pecan Overnight Oatmeal– You have leftovers of both stashed away in the freezer or refrigerator, just pop one out and enjoy!
• Lunch: Purple Potato-Eater Chowder– Chowder just sounds like Friday, doesn't it? This Thai-inspired soup tastes fresh, even if made ahead. Add your favorite protein (like chopped baked tofu) to take you to 5pm.
• Dinner: Creamy Garlic & Mushroom Pasta– It's Friday night, which means a little white wine for the pot and a little for the cook! Serve with steamed broccoli for pretty presentation and a little green goodness.

Bonus Snacks & Sweets

I recommend keeping cut vegetables and fresh fruit on hand for regular snacking. Dairy-free yogurts, granola, and baked chips are also convenient. But you can also mix things up by adding these into our weekday plant-based meal plan:

• Frozen Strawberry-Balsamic Souffle – Easy and a little healthier than the norm, but still a decadent evening dessert!
• Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip – This dip is protein-rich and can be enjoyed as a snack or treat!
• Everyday Turmeric Smoothie – For an afternoon recharge, try this quick and delicious creamy beverage.
• Flax & Walnut Zucchini Muffins – Sunday bakers can whip up a batch of these for munching on with almondmilk, tea, or coffee.
• Papaya Boats – Though originally created as a breakfast recipe, we also like it as a fun healthy evening treat to make and share.
