Everyday Kale Salad
Every vegan meal prep deserves to have a tasty salad as a side and this 3 mins kale salad creates 4 servings each with 10g of protein.
Kale salads are great for vegan meal prep because kale doesn’t really go soggy like lettuce or other greens do! I find this recipe keeps nicely in the fridge for the weekdays. To give this salad a protein boost, I added edamame beans, but you can also add high protein ingredients you may have at home like hemp seeds, nuts, beans, or tofu!

Vegan Egg Patty
This vegan “egg” patty recipe is easy to make in 7 mins using 3 ingredients with the option to make a vegan egg yolk! Each fried tofu egg patty is about 10g of protein and made using a thin slice of medium-firm tofu, fried in oil with black salt giving it an eggy flavour and look. This recipe pairs well with the kale salad & a side of rice!

Extra Nutrients: Roasted Vegetables
Sometimes it’s good just to have a side of roasted vegetables for vegan meal prep that you can add into a dish like the high protein couscous. So although these veggies might not carry “high protein”, broccoli, cauliflower and zucchini add a lot of daily nutritious benefits. Plus, I just love roasted vegetables & add them to my daily lunches and dinners when meal prepping.
Ingredients (around 5 servings):
- 1 head of broccoli, chopped into bite sized pieces
- 1/2 head cauliflower, chopped into bite sized pieces
- 1 medium zucchini, chopped into bite sized pieces
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions:
- If using an oven, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. If using an air fryer, skip this step.
- In a large mixing bowl, add broccoli, cauliflower and zucchini. Drizzle on oil and mix well.
- Sprinkle on garlic powder, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to your liking. Toss until well coated.
- If using an oven, place the vegetables onto a lined baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20-30 minutes (cooked to your liking), tossing halfway through. If using an air fryer, place the vegetables into the air fryer and air fry at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes (cook to your liking), tossing halfway through.
- Store in a tightly sealed container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days and add to any meal.
