Quinoa Green Goddess Bowl From Forks Over Knives Meal Planner

People often ask me what my diet is, and although I don’t really have a specific label for it, I like to say “mostly plant-based.” I try to make my meals as plant-filled as possible, and I eat a predominantly-vegetarian diet at home. In addition to trying to boost my health by eating lots of plant-foods, it’s also important to me to pay attention to how animals are treated and the way the environment is impacted by meat production as well.

I was introduced to a “plant-based” diet in college when I watched Forks Over Knives with my friend and her family, and we were all inspired to start eating more plant-based foods after following the film. Not long after, I started this blog, and I began experimenting with different recipes using vegetarian and vegan ingredients. For me, eating mostly plant based wasn’t difficult, especially when I started learning that there are plenty of ways to enjoy your favorite foods without eating meat or dairy. I learned how to make lentil meatballs, cheese sauce out of nutritional yeast, and Caesar dressing out of cashews. Finding plant-based alternatives to my favorite foods made eating this way exciting.

I understand that it’s often hard to give up your favorite comfort foods or to even just come up with a tasty-sounding plant-based meal. This is where the Forks Meal Planner comes in! This is perfect for anyone who wants to try making more plant-based meals, but doesn’t know where to begin. Using their planner, you can get weekly chef-created meal plans with recipes that can be made in 35 minutes or less. It even generates a grocery list so you know exactly what to get at the store (major bonus!). There are over 900 exclusive recipes, including nut, soy, and gluten-free versions for all your dietary needs.

I made the Quinoa Green Goddess bowl from the planner, and it was so easy and delicious! Green Goddess dressing is another example of a food that I love, but one that usually comes loaded with anchovies or mayo. This vegan version tastes just as good, and the ingredients are simple and clean — definitely going to make a big batch of this again later. One thing I love about Forks Over Knives is that their food isn’t just plant-based. They make sure to focus on whole, unrefined foods, which means you know the focus is on health.

You can get this Quinoa Green Goddess Bowl recipe through the Forks Meal Planner. They offer a free 14-day trial, and there is no credit card required! Many people struggle with feeling alone when they start incorporating more plant-based foods into their diet, but with the meal planner, you also get access to a subscriber-only Facebook group for questions and encouragement. You can sign up for the meal planner here!

Eating plant-based might seem hard, but it’s definitely something that is attainable for everyone with the right tools. Even just incorporating a Meatless Monday is a great place to start, and when you have inspiring recipes at your fingertips, you never feel like you are missing out.
