Mexican cuisine is one of my favorites and you’d be surprised, but Mexican dishes can be made meatless pretty easily! You won’t even miss the meat thanks to tons of flavor packed in these meals!

If Mexican cuisine isn’t for you, check out our other convenient weekly vegetarian meal plans – you’ll definitely find a curated meal plan that works for you. These meal plans take all the guesswork out of planning meals for you and your family and are perfect when you’re running out of dinner ideas!

Here’s this week’s printable shopping list for this meal plan and you can check out what’s on the menu this week down below!

Example grocery list for vegetarian meal plan

MONDAY: 20 Minute Taco Soup

Start the week off with this delicious and simple Taco Soup. Our award-winning taco soup features a ton of pantry staples, such as corn and several kinds of beans, and is fully customizable to your bean preferences. This filling soup comes together in under 20 minutes and tastes just like a taco, but with fewer carbs!

PREP TIP: The soup can be made in the slow cooker so it can cook all day while you’re busy.

MEAL PREP TIP: This soup will last about one week in the fridge, but can be frozen in individual portions to enjoy at a later date!

TUESDAY: Soyrizo Tacos with Adobo Crème

Taco Tuesday never looked better with our Soyrizo Tacos with Adobo Creme! These are way more unique than “normal” tacos because of the pickled red cabbage and smoky adobo creme. This makes it a tad bit more complicated to make but will be worth it in the end because of all of the flavors they bring in. 

MAKE AHEAD TIP: Make the pickled red cabbage in advance, as it stores well in the fridge for up to two weeks and can be used for several other recipes!

WEDNESDAY: Vegan Burritos with Taco Meat and Queso

If you love burritos, you’ll love these Vegan Burritos with Taco Meat and Queso. The tempeh taco meat, smoky queso cheese sauce, and chipotle cauliflower rice with the essential spices come together to bring the tastiest and most filling burritos you’ve ever tried! The best part? These burritos are completely vegan!

MAKE AHEAD TIP: Make the taco meat and the cauliflower rice (you’ll be needing more of the rice anyway)   and chop the veggies (except the avocado) in advance so all you have to do is assemble the tacos!

THURSDAY: Huevos Rancheros

Who says you can’t have breakfast for dinner? These Huevos Rancheros are easy to make and is a healthy dish made with black beans, corn tortillas, eggs, and Pico de Gallo. We opt for mashing some black beans instead of adding refried beans to this dish because it makes it a bit healthier. The toppings are totally customizable to whatever you fancy, but we like to add cotija cheese, avocado, cilantro, and hot sauce. You’ll love this Mexican staple.

PRO TIP: Make extra Pico de Gallo to snack on for the weekend!

FRIDAY: Vegetable Fajitas

Enjoy your Fajita Friday with these Vegetable Fajitas, which include a mix of mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, and tons of flavor. This is a delicious, vegan-friendly Fajita recipe that will become a staple in your household! The spices really add a ton of flavor to this traditional Mexican dish!

MEAL PREP TIP: Cook extra veggies and store them in the fridge to assemble fajitas anytime you want more throughout the weekend.

BONUS: Mexican Paletas

If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you’ll love these Mexican Palettes (popsicles). Our recipe includes four fresh fruit options and just a handful of ingredients. These are so easy to make - you’ll constantly want to make them to satisfy that sweet craving!

We hope you enjoy your week of Mexican meals! Let us know which was your favorite meal of the week and what meal plans you would like to see next!
