Planning meals /vegan

Kelly

Hi there,

Can anyone recommend an app/book/method of planning healthy meals?

Food is an area I struggle with, the whole process of choosing meals, buying ingrediants and cooking.

I struggle with cook books as there is too much choice and they just don't work with my brain.

I think the change 4 life app is amazing as it does a random meal planner for you, you can change the meals it gives you if you don't like them and it adds the ingrediants to your shopping list.

Problem is, I have a lactose allergy and a lot of the meals contain milk or cheese.

Also, I want to go vegan to get a healthy diet. I want to eat more than just 5 a day.

But I cannot find any way of organising myself to be able to make and eat tasty vegan meals.

What apps/methods do you use for meal planning?

  • Hi, I'm vegan too! For most of my inspiration I will search 'vegan recipes' or 'vegan meals' on Pinterest, Tiktok or Instagram. My favourite cook books are BOSH! (any of them).

    Before I do a food shop I will choose a few recipes where the ingredients overlap so it means you can use them in more than one meal and reduce food waste.

    Making fresh smoothies and soups are a really good way to introduce lots of fresh fruit and veg into your diet and aren't too time consuming with quick results. Another really easy way to include lots of veg is to blend them into a pasta sauce!

    If you're finding it tiring making lots of meals then you can always batch cook and refrigerate/freeze leftover portions for you to reheat another day :)
