Tips for This Week’s Vegan Meal Plan

• Some marinated tofu would be a great addition to Tuesday's noodle salad if you're looking for some more protein and staying power. Add it to the list if you'd like.
• Friday's burgers call for ¾ cup of black beans, so you'll have a cup leftover if you buy a 14 ounce can. If you don't have another use for them, seal them up tight and freeze them for later. Or throw them into a smoothie over the weekend.
• Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday's meals are all served with rice. Save time by cooking it all up on Monday and serving the leftovers on Wednesday and Thursday.
• There are lots of fresh herbs on the list this week, and you'll be using them throughout the week. Make sure to pick out very fresh bunches so they last all week.
• Wednesday's stir-fry calls for chili paste, since sriracha sauce is already on the list you can use that instead.
• If you have trouble finding microgreens for Tuesday's salad, you can substitute sprouts.
