West Coast Crunch Salad
Let’s start with a salad! A fresh salad can be a meal on its own, especially if it’s a West Coast Crunch Salad. Savoury, crunchy, and deliciously umami, this salad is everything you want in one convenient container. It’s nutritious and is the quintessential grab-and-go plant-based dinner.
Tired of your thousand island, ranch, or bland dressings? This salad comes with a chef's signature miso dressing. That and a colourful diversity of veg and fruit like avocado, lettuce, carrot, and pickled cabbage make this a tasty and light dinner.
Have a dairy or nut allergy? This plant-based dinner recipe is free from it. Serve this West Coast Crunch Salad chilled. No more cooking or prep is needed. Just tuck in!
Umami Grain Bowl
Get ready for something oh-so-yummy, it’ll delight your tummy! This Umami Grain Bowl is a hearty meal topped with seasonal vegetables, cashew ricotta cubes, and some portobello mushroom bacon. Pair that with some brown and wild rice and your tastebuds will definitely sing!
The Umami Grain Bowl, of course, features the protein-rich chickpea. You’ll find crispy chickpeas sprinkled on top for that extra crunch!
To enjoy this at home, take off the lid, drizzle the included dressing, and heat it in the microwave for two to three minutes.

Roasted Squash & Chickpea Curry
The Roasted Squash & Chickpea Curry always makes a splash. This curry features forbidden rice, also known as black rice. Out of all the rice varieties, black rice is said to be the most protein- and nutrient-rich whilst being the lowest in caloric and carb content.
This plant-based dinner is our go-to if we want something hearty and healthy. This chickpea green curry comes with roasted mushrooms and butternut squash. It’s seasoned with cilantro and zesty lime, too! If we were to build our own delicious dish dynasty, the Roasted Squash & Chickpea Curry would definitely be at the top.
Tandoori Cauliflower Bowl
From one Indian-inspired feast to the next! The Tandoori Cauliflower Bowl is rich with spice and flavour.
Where do we start? The meal has a solid base made out of fluffy, steamed basmati rice. On top of that, you’ll get wonderfully seasoned, roasted cauliflower, some chana masala, and mango chutney. You’ll also get a coconut tzatziki sauce to drizzle the dish with! The flavours are balanced, nothing too spicy, sweet, or salty. Everything about this plant-based dinner recipe just blends perfectly.
Plant-Based Mac and Cheese
A tried and true southern classic… with a twist! This Plant-Based Mac and Cheese will definitely be your family’s newest favourite.
XMeals’ Plant-based Mac and Cheese is comforting, savoury, and creamy. It’s made with a signature plant-based cheese sauce and topped with vegan cheddar cheese. That’s right, this plant-based dinner recipe is completely free from dairy. Also sprinkled on top is some toasted panko to give it a crispy, crunchy texture.
