Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plans: Week Twenty One

Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plans- weekly recipes with prep ahead tips, vegan/GF substitutions, and a color-coded shopping list!

Hey there! How was your Thanksgiving? Did you put on your stretchy pants and eat all the things? I sure did.

It’s a good thing we made time for a nice long hike today otherwise I’d feel like a total bum.

So I’m sure cooking is the last thing you feel like thinking about right now, but we’ve got another week of healthy meals on the menu for you. I hope you find something you like and that you enjoy the rest of your weekend! 😘

Sunday

Mushroom Lentil Loaf from Making Thyme for Health

Prep Ahead Tip: This is a Sunday meal because it requires quite a bit of prep. However, if you’d like to prep in advance you can shop the vegetables and cook the lentils a day or two ahead of time.

Vegan/Gluten-free Substitutions: Recipe is already vegan. Use gluten-free breadcrumbs to make GF.
