My First Vegan Shopping List and Meal Planning

Here's an idea of what my first vegan shopping trip will look like. If there are any vegans out there who stumble across this and see something off the wagon, please feel free to let me know. This will be about a week's worth of food for myself and my husband.

My three stores are Sprouts, Fresh & Easy and Trader Joe's, and I like to hit all three stores over the weekend to get everything I need for the week. Most of the meals I make usually have a Mexican flare, but I do like to branch out and experiment with different recipes.

The List: 

Trader Joe's:
Green Goddess Dressing
Soyrizo
Grapefruit
Oranges
LARABARS

Fresh & Easy:
Black Beans
Quinoa
Lentils
Corn
Peas
Jalapeno Hummus
Trail Mix
Wheat Tortillas
Pasta Sauce
Brown Rice Pasta
Capers

Sprouts:
Sweet Potatoes
Hemp seeds
Cucumbers
Lemons
Peppers (All colors)
Fire Roasted Tomatoes
Anaheim Chiles
Kale
Avocados
Cashews

The Menu: 

The Breakfast Menu:
Grapefruit (I could eat one every day!)

Snacks:
Trail Mix
LARA BARS
Oranges

The Lunch Menu:
Salad with green goddess dressing or hummus dressing and hemp seeds

The Dinner Menu:
Black beans, lentils, Soyrizo and corn bowl on a bed of quinoa (tacos for the hubs)
Penne Pasta with a Vodka sauce
Stuffed Chiles
Grilled peppers, and lentil tacos with avocado salsa
Stuffed Sweet potatoes with the lentil mixture from the night before
