I have developed a 3-day meal plan for getting a good nutritional balance while hitting 30+ plant sources per week (in just three days!). A very good habit to get into during perimenopause and beyond.
If you like cooking, you'll enjoy these recipes. But if you don't like cooking, don't worry – for every recipe, there is an alternative 'smart swap' recipe, which shows you how to create essentially the same dish, but without the prep/effort of cooking from scratch.
Follow this nutrition plan for three days and you're guaranteed to get over 30 plants to improve your gut microbiome, plus loads of inspiration to continue your plant-rich diet for the rest of your week!

You are responsible for your own diet and should not eat any dishes from this nutrition plan with foods that you are allergic to or have an intollerance of.
