Day 7 is all up to you. It’s a great day for leftovers, or if you want to go out to eat. Buddha Bowls or Burrito Bowls are a great way to use up leftovers. We still recommend keeping the calories to about 1300kcal if weight loss is a priority.

Recipe Tips:

  • Moroccan Couscous Salad: you can use 3 tsp Ras El Hanout to replace the cumin, ginger and paprika powder.
  • Smooching Mushrooms on Toast: mushrooms need it dry and air to breath. Ideally store them ‘loosely’ in a paper bag outside the fridge.
  • Mediterranean Rice Bowl: prep double the rice and use the leftovers for the lettuce wraps.
  • High-Protein Overnight Oats: almost any fruits works, and the more tropical, the better!
  • Potato Farls: if you can, cook the potatoes the night before. They need time to cool down. Otherwise, use cold water after boiling them to speed up the process.

Meal Prep (Quick Tutorial): These recipes can be made ahead.

Generally, we advise to keep them in airtight containers and/or in the fridge. Some of them need to be reheated.

  • Moroccan Couscous Salad (it’ll be even more flavorful that way)
  • Refreshing Pasta in Peanut Sauce
  • Smooching Mushrooms on Toast (prep the toast on the spot)
  • Mediterranean Rice Bowl (keep the sauce separately)
  • High-Protein Overnight Oats (it’ll be even more flavorful that way)
  • Vegetarian Baked Beans
  • Potato Farls (if possible, boil the potatoes the night before so they’re nice and cold for the next day, farls can also be cooked and then reheated)

Freezable:

  • Vegetarian Baked Beans
  • Potato Farls (after mashing, before frying)

Vegan Alternatives (More Here)

  • Breakfast : Cornmeal Porridge
  • Lunch: Vegan Mediterranean Pasta Salad
  • Dinner: Vegan Pad Thai

You can use the ‘recipe vault’ to instantly find great replacement or additional meals, too!

And don’t forget – if you have lots of leftover ingredients in the fridge we highly recommend turning them into Buddha Bowls or Burrito Bowls ! There’s so much choice, and you can throw together virtually everything you have leftover with a tasty sauce!
