Here's next week's meal plan (early May edition) 👉
A week full of plant-based meals for early May
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!
👩🍳 + 🥗,
Kristina
master meal planner
Breakfasts for the week 🥣
I alternate 1-2 breakfasts for weekdays, and 1 more indulgent for the weekend
WEEKDAY BREAKFAST RECIPE #2 (prep a batch for the week)

Tip: Make enough for the next day’s lunch leftovers (less cooking!)
Backup salad of the week 🥗

Sweets and snacks 🍪
I always plan one snack and one sweet to batch for the week
DID YOU KNOW? 🧐
May’s full Moon, called the Flower Moon, appears on Thursday, May 23, reaching peak illumination at 9:53 A.M. (EDT). It will be below the horizon at this time, so for the best view of this full Moon, step outside on the night of the 23rd or the 24th and look for that big, bright, shining lunar disk! (source)
TODAY’S VIDEO 🎥
Every Saturday I share this video so you can follow along to create your own meal plan.
Behold, my friends, the spring is come; the earth has gladly received the embraces of the sun, and we shall soon see the results of their love!

I am burying this news at the very bottom of this email, but I’m super excited to share that my plant-based kitchen school is officially open! Plant Powered Kitchen School is a plant-based cooking and meal plan community membership and the first course on meal planning is live now. Check it out here, I’ll share more in the coming days as I welcome in new students.
