    Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plan: 8-6-16

    Published Aug 6, 2016 · Modified Apr 13, 2019 · by Alexis Joseph · 1 Comment

    Hey frands!

    Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plans- an entire week of quick, easy and nutritious meals that the whole family will love! (with vegan and gluten-free options)

    It's been a looooooong week. It's one of those nights (writing this on Friday...hashtag procrastinator) where I all I want to kick my feet up, drink a glass or five of vino, and snuggle a batch of salted chocolate chip cookies.

    Once I'm rested, I plan to dive headfirst into some serious meal planning! I can't tell you how amazing it's been coming home from a long day at Alchemy to delish, nourishing food all ready to go.

    Without further adieu, here's this week's shenanigans!

    Sunday

    Mexican Zucchini Burrito Boats from Making Thyme for Health

    Prep Ahead Tip: Use frozen rice to help save time.

    Vegan/Gluten-free Substitutions: Substitute dairy-free cheese to make it vegan.

    Monday

    Herby Avocado Egg Salad Sandwiches from The Roasted Root

    Prep Ahead Tip: The eggs can be hard boiled up to 3 days ahead of time.

    Vegan/Gluten-free Substitutions: The sandwiches can be made with your choice of gluten-free bread, or the egg salad can be served bread-less on top of a green salad. To make this recipe vegan, replace the eggs with a 14 to 16-ounce container of tofu. Press the tofu, chop it into small cubes, transfer to a mixing bowl, then follow the remainder of the recipe.

    Tuesday

    Quinoa Fried Rice from Hummusapien

    Prep Ahead Tip: Chop veggies ahead of time or use frozen!

    Vegan/Gluten-free Substitutions: Recipe is vegan! To make it gluten-free, sub tamari instead of soy sauce.

    Wednesday

    Corn, Jalapeno and Brie Frittata from Eats Well With Others

    Prep Ahead Tip: This recipe takes around 45 minutes to prepare, but the majority of that is hands off time while it bakes in the oven. To speed things up, saute the veggies ahead of time so that the night of cooking everything just needs to be mixed together and poured into a baking pan.

    Vegan/Gluten-free Substitutions: This cannot easily be made vegan as it relies so heavily on eggs! It can be made dairy-free by substituting the brie with your favorite dairy-free cheese and replacing the milk with unsweetened soy or almond milk. It is already gluten free.

    Thursday

    Balsamic Sweet Pepper Pasta with Parmesan and Spinach from She Likes Food

    Prep Ahead Tip: You can slice the peppers ahead of time to save some time. You could also cook the peppers ahead of time and them throw them into the cooked pasta to heat them up before serving.

    Vegan/Gluten-free Substitutions: To make it vegan you can either omit the parmesan cheese or use non-dairy cheese instead. You could also sprinkle some nutritional yeast into the pasta for a cheesy taste! Use gluten free pasta to make gluten free.
