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.

And in honor of the last two weeks spent in Italy, I’m sharing a Mediterranean-inspired meal plan. Use my plan below, or make it your own!

Here’s what to eat in June (Monday, June 3rd)

DID YOU KNOW? 🧐

The eating habits of Europeans living in rural areas near the Mediterranean Sea first garnered attention in the 1950s when it was found that they had a greater life expectancy than people living elsewhere in Europe, despite poor medical services and a lower standard of living. Researchers in subsequent decades found that the diet, combined with regular exercise and not smoking, was effective at reducing cardiovascular disease and certain cancers and that it helped maintain a healthy weight.
