Yes I'm aware that the information in that documentary is pretty skewed and one-sided, however you can't deny the fact that plant-based foods are healthier for you than animal-products. Since we watched the documentary we've started to cut back on eating meat and dairy in our family but I decided to take it a step further this week by challenging myself to a 5-day vegan meal plan. I'm not giving up meat, eggs, seafood, or dairy but I do want to cut back on my consumption of these products.
So, when the time came to plan my meal plan for the week I pulled up the 21 Day Fix vegan eating plan (you can find this in the Program Materials under 21 Day Fix in Beachbody on Demand). I knew I needed a well-balanced eating plan that would keep me fueled with the right balance of food that would optimize my workouts and my weight loss goals. I am so thankful that Beachbody has this vegan meal plan option available. Knowing exactly what and how much to eat (without counting calories) makes this so much easier and enjoyable.
My goal was to eat delicious yet simple meals that wouldn't take much time to prep/cook. I hit the jackpot with these delicious vegan tacos! These are made with just 5 simple ingredients and there is NO COOKING REQUIRED! I'm definitely going to be keeping these on frequent rotation in my meal plans.
INGREDIENTS
2 corn tortillas
3/4 cup refried beans (I used Amy's Organic)
3/4 cup of shredded cabbage mix (coleslaw mix)
1/4 cup pico de gallo
1 100-calorie packet of guacamole
DIRECTIONS
If you prefer to eat this warm, warm up the tortillas and beans in the microwave first.
To assemble layer half of the beans, cabbage, pico de gallo and guacamole on each of the tortillas.
That's it! This probably will take you longer to eat than it will to prep! If you want to add anything additional you could try some of the "free" food options such as cilantro and/or hot sauce.
21 Day Fix vegan container count: 1 yellow (B), 1 red, 1 green, 1 blue
