Let’s face it, most weight loss meal plans SUCK... 😅 Tiny portions that leave you feeling hungry 5 minutes later... bland "diet food" that tastes like cardboard and pushes your cravings into high gear... no wonder most people feel discouraged when working to burn fat. But that ends with this super easy and delicious vegan weight loss meal prep! 🌱 At just 1,600 calories per day, I was surprised by how much food we were able to pack into our lowest-calorie meal prep yet. And since most people need more than 1,600 calories per day (even when working to lose weight), I’ll show you how to make a few super easy adjustments to make this meal prep work for you and your goals. I hope you get tons of value from this video! 💪
Daily nutrition facts for this meal prep:
✅ 1,600 calories

Hey, friends! I hope you get a ton of value from this video! 😊 I'd love to know... What vegan meal prep would you like to see next? 🌱
It would be interesting to see meal prepping components and using those in different meals instead of 3 meals! Might be fun!
would love to see a high calories vegan meal prep plan
Awesome ideas! Thanks for sharing. Tip, Kale stems are great cut up in soups or as a cruchy treat with Hummus and other veggies, Collard stems are great too. Happy new year✨🍾✨
Looks yum and i'm not vegan.
How about a bulking meal plan? 3000 - 4000 cal
I'd love to see more of the 1600-2000 calorie meal prep. Grateful that you didn't use very many specialty items. I'm on a limited budget. Maybe you could do a budget meal prep if you haven't already.
Great idea! We actually have a budget meal prep in the works! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment! 😊🌱🙏
@@TheVeganGym I’d appreciate a little bit lower in sodium 😊
Same,@@martinthatfirl . After watching Dr. Gregor's videos, I'm on a mission to get as little sodium as possible.
Please check out my recent youTube Video 114g protein 1614 calories. It's also very budget friendly, no use of protein powders :) - ua-cam.com/video/e_JrMhiDCtY/v-deo.htmlsi=zVwxpRQcayVXwfrq
So great to find videos on high protein vegan meals! Can you do maybe a 1400-1500 calorie meal prep?
struggled with weight, finding a solution in a vegan meal plan. This 4-day guide with 126g plant protein/day transformed my approach. Aspect health became my priority, embracing nutritious, satisfying meals. 🌱🥗
Love to hear that! We should have more meal prep videos on the way! 🙂💚
More videos like this please!!!! I need more meal options that give full nutritional profiles and also not so many calories! LOVE this, make it a regular weekly series please ❤
Glad you loved it so much! Just in case you haven't seen our other meal prep videos, here are some others:

You got a new subscriber. Like your meal preps and impressed with as many subscribers as you have, you still respond to a lot of comments. Personally i like creators who interact with their subs.

Love that this inspires you! Thank you for the kind words. 🌱🙂
This looks so good! That sweet potato bowl looks similar to a frozen dinner I used to buy from Trader Joe's except the Trader Joe's version had cauliflower rice & tahini dressing. You have inspired me to recreate that dinner next week, so thank you!
Interesting! Let us know how your recreation goes! 🌱🙂
I love vegan meal prep videos. You guys really do your research
We pride ourselves on our research and detail-oriented approach!
these videos just keep getting better. which is saying a lot because they already started out being pretty phenomenal. was hardcore just stressing about how busy i was and how i didn't have energy to calculate how to get proper protein while staying in a deficit this week. i was wondering how i was gonna strive for my current witness goal this week, and then i stumbled upon this video right on cue. I'M SO GLAD YOU GUYS RELEASED ANOTHER ONE! KEEP IT UP! these are my holy grail. plus i'm learning SO MUCH and can take these principles and apply them to my own easy recipes
Thank you so much!! We have more coming your way soon! So happy to hear you're learning so much. Got any ideas for future meals? 🌱🙂💚
This is great! Thanks for sharing
You're very welcome! Thank you for watching! 😊🌱

I made this meal prep this week and it was so great.

I love that you rooted this in daily nutrients. That is so rare to come by and a huge concern of mine! Thank you!
We strive to be detailed-oriented in everything we do!
Exactly what i was looking for 🎉
Let us know what you think! 🙂💚
I love the simplicity but still getting all the nutrients needed. Great recipes. Very doable! I especially like that you don’t use oil to cook. Its not necessary and since its the most calorie dense food there is, best to avoid. I have stainless steel pans but water saute on lower heat and it works great. A little water or veg broth is all you need.
Totally agree with your viewpoint on oil! We try to avoid it whenever we can. 🌱🙂💪
moment of appreciation for the effort put into this beautiful and aesthetic finishing shot of all the meal prep at 12:45. gorgeous!
We work hard to make our food look beautiful! 🌱🙂
Your videos have helped tremendously with getting myself to a healthy baseline and I am extremely grateful for the content you make every day! My mental health has always interfered with my ability to take care of myself and on top of being a whole-foods vegan, it all compounded and made my added more stressors to the hell that has been my life. Thank you so much!
This kind of comment really makes my entire day. Thank you so much for sharing! I am so glad that the videos are able to help you physically and mentally. So glad to have you in the community! 😊💚
Thanx for doing this 💚
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment! 😊🌱🙏
Just made this, it took about 90~ minutes, I just want to say your meal preps are an absolute game changer for a busy uni student! And I’m glad this was on the lower calorie side so I have more room for snacks!!
Love to hear it!! Check out the other meal prep videos on our channel as well! 🙂
Love this!!
Yay! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment! 🙏😊🌱
Thank you for doing a lower calorie meal prep! I’m on an 1800 deficit so this is perfect for me when I add in my snacks, appreciate all your efforts guys
Glad this is helping you! This meal prep sounds perfect for you! 🌱🙂💚
Thank you so very much for these videos! I especially appreciate the grocery list and recipes!
Is there a substitute for seitan? I have a gluten/ wheat allergy.
I would sub out seitan for tofu!!
Dope. Thank you.
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video. 🌱🙂
Lol loved how the spoon got stuck in the oat jar! ❤
Ooo my toy monkeys like the banana boats!
Like how u show people what nutrients they're getting at the end. I need iron bc of heavy periods in menopause.
We love to know exactly what's in our foods! 🌱🙂
I’m living in Taiwan and so glad that most of these ingredients could be found here !Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe😊
Very nice! So glad you're able to replicate this meal prep. Please let me know which meal you like best! 😃💚
Great video! Love from Italy❤
Thank you for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed the video! 🙂💚
This video was great!
Thank you! 🙂💚
This is a brilliant video, going to try this next week!
I don’t live somewhere with a lot of kale, would a mix of spinach and bak choi be an adequate substitute in the tofu bowl in terms of micronutrients? Thank you!
Yes, your substitutions should still work! Please let us know how it works out for you! 🌱🙂💚
This is 🔥🔥 recipes look yummy too!
Glad you enjoyed the video! 🔥🔥🔥
love these meal prep vids, very helpful. I have noticed it is a lot of slat however.
Glad you're loving the videos! As an athlete, I need more salt in my diet. That's why there is sometimes more salt than you need per day.
Love the video.
Glad you enjoy it! Do you have a favorite meal from the video? 🌱💚
I vote for dinners.@@TheVeganGym
Great video❤
Glad you liked it!! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment! 😊🌱🙏
I'd love more of these low cal meal prep videos. Thank you for the great content. 😊 🙏
I am wondering why the sodium is so high though 🤔
Because I like salt 😅 you can just cut the sodium and tamari to make the sodium whatever you want 🙌
Please tell me what kind of wraps you are using.
Great video. Thank you for your time and information.
In this video we're using high-fiber, low-carb wraps from Olé!
I love this! Do you have any suggestions for a high protein gluten free option instead of the seitan?
Tofu and tempeh are great gluten-free high-protein options! 🙂💚
Very useful video! I want to start into meal preps this year to save time and money and I really want to try this.
A question: what’s the app you’re using to track calories?
Those are great reasons to get into meal-prepping your food! The app is called "Cronometer"! 🌱🙂
Amazing video!
Glad you enjoyed it! What meal looks the best to you? 🌱😃
@@TheVeganGym The breakfast and seitan tacos !
Thank you for the informative video! Have you considered incorporating quinoa into your meals for a protein-rich option at any time of the day?
Yes, we love using quinoa!
all of this looks amazing, Can you sub out sunflower or pumpkin seeds? And maple syrup instead of agave? 💚
Both of those can work for sure! 🌱💚
This is fantastic , I’m trying to lower my body fat percentage so this is perfect. thanks so much 😃
Love that goal and I'm glad this meal prep is working for you! 🙂💚💪
Can you make more weight loss videos like this? I need to keep my calories around 1500. Love what you are doing and how you are so focused on complete nutrition.
We have more meal prep videos on the way!
Looks great! I’m personally not into plant derivatives. Can you do a whole plant version?
Love this idea! We'll see what we can do. 🌱🙂
Loved the video, am definitely going to adapt some of these to be soy free since I'm allergic. I would love to see a soy free version though!
Love that idea! Here's our soy-free meal prep! ua-cam.com/video/_PMvN-MYNvk/v-deo.htmlsi=m_u8u2Ev3W_CAJue
I think I'll make similar wraps but swap the sauerkraut for kimchi. Great video!
Love the sauerkraut swap! 🌱🙂
thank you so much for your content. next idea could be a vegan meal prep plan for weight gain maybe like 2500 calories?
Love that idea! We'll see what we can do. 🌱🙂
Love this, I’m on a fat loss plan atm and need around 1400 calories so will be trying some of these recipes 😍
Please let us know what you think!! 🌱🙂💪
I love the meal prepping videos, they are super helpful and fun to watch! I would love to see a bit more calorie meal prep, maybe 2500-3000 kcal? I try to gain weight and even if I wouldnt, 2100-1800 kcal is pretty low on calorie intake if you have a normal busy every day life xD So it would be awesome if you could do one video on higher intake :)) P.S.: I love the little outtakes in the video, keep those in :)
Glad you're enjoying the videos! We'll try to get more higher-calorie videos in the lineup. 🌱🙂💪
I made this exactly as the video/recipes indicated. I logged everything into MFP just to adjust for differences in products used etc and my calorie counts were well over 1800. I re-checked and noted that I used super firm instead of extra firm so there were 100 or so calories there but even so the other meals were off quite a lot.
All of this was logged in Cronometer and I detail the nutrition breakdown at the end of the video. You can also find the nutrition facts here: thevegangym.com/easy-vegan-meal-prep-for-weight-loss. There’s naturally some variance in nutrition from different food products/companies and nutrition databases.
Thanks for the help.
Changed to a meat free diet just because it saves money. Food shopping in the UK is so expensive at the moment if you eat meat. Saving around £20 a week by going vegan.
Love to hear it!
Using Aquafaba would also help the seasonings to stick.
Love that idea! 🌱🙂
Thank you for another great meal prep and I’m happy you kept it at 1600 calories
Glad you enjoyed the video! 🙂💪
Anyone know the best grocery store to shop at for this meal plan?
That lunch looks delicious by the calories in that also depends on the wrap !
Very true! The tortillas we use in the recipe are 50 calories each! 🙂💪
@@TheVeganGym where did you find 50 calorie wrap ??
Hello ! thanks for sharing the recipes
To do the exact same recipe but with the foods we have available in France (tofu, seitan, etc.) we reach 122g of protein for 1900kcal.
Another note: the tofu gets too dry after staying that long in the oven, I would suggest only 25min-30min total in the oven.
other than that we indeed reach all the nutrients for a day (potassium a tad low still) but the rest is good
Thanks for the tofu tip! 🌱🙂
Not sure if this has been asked before but, what app are you using to get all your nutrition calculations? TYIA 😊
It's called "Cronometer"!
Hi there! I would love to know the name of the software that you are using to breakdown the nutritional value of the recipes if possible, please! Thank you!
It's called "Cronometer"! 🌱🙂
@@TheVeganGym OMG! Thank you so much!!😃❣
Hi. I'm new to this channel. I would like to know if there are alternatives to Seitan because this is not available in my area. Thanks
Great question! There are definitely alternatives to seitan. Things like tofu would be great soy alternatives. Chickpeas and lentils are also protein alternatives but they may not work perfectly in this meal prep. Hope that helps! 🌱🙂
@@TheVeganGym I truly appreciate this. Tofu it is 🙂🙂🙂
Question: best replacements for protein when you are gluten free (no seitan), and allergic to soy/tofu/nuts? 😅 please 🙏
Absolutely! For gluten-free and soy/nut-free protein sources, focus on legumes like beans, lentils, and chickpeas. They're versatile and protein-rich. Also, consider seeds such as chia, hemp, and pumpkin seeds for additional protein and nutrients. These options are great for a variety of meals! 🌱🙂
@@TheVeganGym thank you 🙏 I will try, although I can’t tolerate hemp seeds anymore either 😅 will give the others a go 💪
