[Esteban Mendez]

Name: Esteban

Info: I want to go vegan next week, I need help in making a meal plan that would be convenient for me to take to school and to work. The problem is I have no idea on how I should start. My starting budget would be $100 or less/weekly. I want to make sure I'm get the proper amount of nutritious. I hope I can learn a lot from this forum.

Hello Esteban! First listen to this 63 year old guy...he's been eating Vegan for 26 years. Ask me later if you don't know what his 1st Step to Paradise is.

Then listen to his Transition to Vegan Diet video,

If you can, get Jack Lalanne's book, Live Young Forever - 12 Steps to Optimum Health, Fitness & Longevity.

Both, the vids and the book, will get you pumped and super motivated.

Welcome to the forum and best diet on the planet.

Here is a vegan meal plan. https://www.peta.org/living/food/two-week-vegan-meal-plan/

If you don't like it, google another one.

https://whytryveg.wordpress.com/2017/03/25/vegan-nutrition/ is a short guide I made to vegan nutrition.

You could have a lunch box with a salad with beans, nuts, seeds etc. You could also make sandwiches or wraps with hummus or peanut butter as a base and add other vegetables and dressings. Then have a piece of fruit, some vegan biscuits or cake or a soya yoghurt for dessert. I assume you would check out any shop-bought items to ensure that they are vegan.
