It’s Saturday, which means it’s time to make your meal plan for next week!
Each Saturday I create a seasonal plant-based meal plan for the week ahead so you can get a glimpse of exactly what a plant-based dietitian really eats each and every day. Use my plan below, or make it your own!

P.S. Today’s newsletter has a sponsor! I work with very few sponsors as I only want to highlight brands that align with Fork in the Road’s mission to get more people to eat more plants, more of the time. Click on sponsor links helps to keep the lights on here with this newsletter. Thank you and I appreciate that you’re here!
