One of the keys to succeeding with any plant-based diet is meal planning. Of course, sometimes you can get lost in a sea of delicious recipes, so let’s hand-pick a few favorites as your go-tos when life gets busy.

Of course, a lectin-free diet is no exception when it comes to having a lot of options.

So whether you’re looking to fight against weight gain or simply be conscious about what you’re putting on your plate, you’ll find the opportunities for delicious food are endless — even when you’re limiting those dangerous plant-based proteins: lectins.

When life gets busy, it can help to plan your meals for the week. Make a large batch of lectin-free breakfast muffins so you have some grab-and-go options when rushing out the door. You can also prep lunches and dinners for the week to cut out some of the detail work when you get to nightly meal prep and dinner-making.

Before You Start Meal Prepping: Read Dr. Gundry’s Book

Now, remember, Dr. Gundry’s NY Times best-selling books, provide excellent recipes and helpful intel about how to keep yourself healthy and meet your health goals. The book goes into great detail when it comes to why lectins are trouble, and how prebiotic fiber can help probiotics do their job, and Dr. Gundry also offers lots of tips and tricks to keep you inspired while following his diet.

The real treasure chest, however, is Dr. Gundry’s tried and true lectin-free recipes. Dr. Gundry uses only the best ingredients. He walks you through tasty meal prep, step by step. It’s clear from reading his book that he wants you to not only do well while following his diet plan, but he also wants you to enjoy every meal.

So, what recipes chock full of natural, delicious ingredients does Dr. Gundry love best? Read on for some awesome, easy, and quick recipes. The following recipes have loads of tasty vegetables and ingredients. And you won’t miss breakfast grains with the breakfast ideas presented below.

Let’s start with lunch and snack ideas. The following recipes are quick, easy, and easily transported. And you can always adjust one of the lectin-free recipes here to fit your lifestyle.

Now the first recipe here takes about 15 minutes to prep and if you up the quantities, you can make multiple batches to take with you for a busy work week. And if you’ve got your lunch with you, you’re less likely to head out for lunch and indulge in something tempting and dangerous.

  2. Transfer skillet to oven and bake for another 10 minutes. Remove skillet from oven and remove cauliflower steaks from your skillet.
  3. Toss the avocado in the remaining tablespoon lemon juice and season with salt.
  4. To make the dipping sauce, add 2 cups chopped cilantro, 1⁄4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice, and 1⁄4 teaspoon iodized sea salt in a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth.
  5. Next, arrange your arugula on the bottom half of the seaweed sheet. Top it with your cauliflower, lemony avocado, and the olives. Add salt to taste.
