My weekly shop on a plant-based diet

Switching to a vegetarian/vegan or plant-based diet can seem daunting but supermarkets that are available to everyone have really stepped up the game.

 

I always write a list before I go to the supermarket otherwise I go crazy and want everything!

TIP – Don’t go to the shop hungry, you’ll want all the wrong things 🙂 

I make a list of what meals I want for the week and then the things I need if they are not already in my cupboards. I often have leftovers for lunches so I don’t need to make separate things. Making meals for one can be difficult without making way too much so it’s a win-win really, no waste and easy lunches.

 

This week I am making;

• Veggie Curry
• Veggie Bolognese and spaghetti
• Stuffed peppers with quinoa and beans
• Spicey fried rice
• Cheeky frozen Pizza
• Mac and Cheese
• Soup

 

What I got for this week;

• Carrots
• Courgettes
• Plum Tomatoes (for soup)
• Cherry Tomatoes
• Apples
• Onions
• Avocados
• White potatoes
• Sweet potatoes
• Mixed salad
• Pringles (essential)
• Moo free Easter Egg (easter treat from my boyfriend)

 

• Soya Milk (for tea)
• Oat Milk (for porridge)
• Brown Rice
• Passata
• Tinned Tomatoes
• Cinnamon
• Chickpeas
• Black beans
• Coconut Milk
• Violife Cheese (for mac and cheese – Recipe coming!)
• Peppers

 

I do try and get as many things that aren’t wrapped in plastic but supermarkets do make it hard. I have used markets and no package shops but this week I went for convenience and tried my best. 

Every week is different and sometimes more than others. This week I clearly ran out of milk… haha!

So I will be posting some of this week’s recipes on here for you guys to have a little look at 🙂

Let me know which meal sounds most exciting to you?
