Steamed Broccoli & Cheesy Mashed Cauliflower.
Every week, I create a menu plan for the week ahead. I’ve always found menu planning to be helpful, but especially when eating a vegan diet. Sometimes I forget to make one, and those weeks are just awful. I stare into the fridge and whine that there’s “nothing to eat”, even though the fridge is packed full of deliciousness. It’s bad.
So – I menu plan every week (usually) to make things easier on myself. And it works. I promise.
Here is the menu plan for my family this week:
Breakfast:
- Loaded Breakfast Potatoes with Mushroom Gravy, Fruit Smoothie
- The Big Vegan Breakfast, Fruit Smoothie
- Toast with Homemade Nutella, Fruit Smoothie
- Toast with Chia Seed Jam, Fruit Smoothie
- Refrigerator Oatmeal, Fruit Smoothie x2

Lunch:
- Leftovers x3
- Cheese Quesedillas, Raw Berry Crisp
- Poutine with Homemade Ricotta Cheese
- Vegan Cesar Salad, Thin Crust Pesto Pizza (on the BBQ!)
- Zesty Pasta Salad
Dinner:

- Beer-Battered Cauliflower Tacos
- Swiss Chard Stuffed with Chickpeas & Rice
- Quinoa Bowl with Roasted Broccoli & Edemame
- Potato Curry, Crispy Coconut Tofu

Snacks/Dessert:

I was vegan before I got pregnant and I would love to start back again. I live with a meat and potatoes guy so I would just be making things for myself. I also work full time and I’m a full time breast feeding mommy. I would love some quick and easy vegan recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Especially your mini black bean brownie recipe!! I’ve never had a sweet tooth until I had my daughter. I’m 3 months post partum and ready to get back to my kind living habits.
That recipe will be up soon! 😀
