About this app

Vegans, What Are You Cooking This Week?

Remove the guesswork and overwhelm from your vegan, plant-based lifestyle for good.

We make it ridiculously easy to stick to your healthy lifestyle with our research-backed, cook-at-home meal plans that can be prepared in as little as 60 minutes a week.

Everything You Want Out of a Plant-Based Diet, Made Simple.

Choosing healthy doesn’t have to be hard, time-consuming, or stressful. Lindsay & the Happy Herbivore team (the makers of Meal Mentor) put in the hard work so you don’t have to, delivering delicious weekly menus that help you stay consistent without all the fuss.

1. Invest In Your Health
Our customizable meal plans and grocery lists make it easy for you to stick to a deliciously healthy life even during the busiest of weeks. Whip up a variety of nutritious, home-cooked meals, so you never have to worry about getting into a food rut or desperately ordering takeout again.

2. Take Back Your Time
Stop wasting hours pouring over cookbooks and Pinterest. We’ve been putting together plant-based meals for over a decade and know how to inject your daily mealtimes with exciting and nutritious dishes in 20 minutes or less (yes, even amidst your 80-hour-work-week and never-ending list of errands).

3. Stay Healthy & Lose Weight
It’s time to put away the calculator. Whether you want to maintain or even lose weight, Meal Mentor is the only vegan-specific weight management meal planning membership. All menus come with calorie and macronutrient counts, and some recipes include options for waist-friendlier portions and lighter substitutions.

HOW MEAL MENTOR WORKS

1. Access & customize your weekly meal plan every Sunday.

Open your email (or the Meal Mentor app) and see your suggested weekly menu. Make substitutions depending on your preferences and dietary restraints, or swap out meals that don’t tickle your fancy completely by searching our recipe database. Not planning to be home? Remove a meal in seconds.

2. Use your custom grocery list to shop for your favorite ingredients.

Tick off the items as you shop in the app, or print your list and pop it in your bag. Save money and time while reducing food waste with a grocery list of only the exact ingredients you need for the week.

3. Meal prep for the whole week in just 60 minutes

Prep your meals with our precise and easy to follow step-by-step directions for delicious results, even if you’re no Master Chef or new to vegan cooking. Tick off ingredients as you use them, and prep your meals ahead of time to reheat throughout the week. Or, if you prefer, most recipes can be cooked in 5-20 minutes – perfect for busy weeknights.

Ratings and reviews

Update: I have since started up my membership again as they have added tons new recipes and the app works now. Great recipes! Healthy, easy, cheap, and most importantly, tasty! I like the recipes but lately they've been very repetitive and the app is awful. It crashes constantly, you can't like recipes anymore, nothing works! I decided to cancel my subscription and I will just stick to cookbooks and plan my own.

Like it for the recipes but not good for meal planning. The same 2 recipes have been locked in list for the past few months. I remove them, pick new recipes for the week and make my list. When I go back in, the new ones are gone and the other 2 are back. Very frustrating when I try to make dinner. Now I have to write down my choices so I can look them up again.

Horrible! If I could go negative I would. Went into the app and while it really is simple to navigate, it's boring. You pick a recipe from the current week or previous weeks and you click on the like button and a shopping list is made. I saved six recipes, my list was completed...no way to see if I could print my list. Next day, went back to the app and only had three recipes saved. Lost 3. Then the app crashed and I was just done at that point. More could be said but I only have 500 words.
