Vegetarian Meal Plan
1200kCal - 1600kCal
Contrary to the common misconception that a vegetarian diet lacks necessary nutrition, it has all the nutrients you need and can also help build a strong body and mass. Vegetarian and vegan diets are gaining ground worldwide due to their multiple health benefits and diversity. Even the hardcore meat eaters are opting for vegetarian meal plans once a week.
A vegetarian diet is versatile and comprises plant-based nutrients, and derives animal-based nutrition from dairy products. Due to a lack of proper knowledge, many vegetarians often overeat processed food, diverting them from their fitness goals. The labels in the market can trick you. Food that otherwise claims to be healthy can be high in calories, sugar, fat, and sodium. These food items must not be a part of your vegetarian diet plan for weight loss.
So, ditch the confusing shopping and cooking process, get yourself a VMeals Vegetarian meal box. Our nutritionist can create the perfect meal plan that you and your taste buds enjoy. We provide 1200 calorie to 1600 calorie vegetarian diet plans. We can also customize it based on your specific requirements and deliver it to your doorsteps daily, anywhere in the UAE.

Unarguably, protein is the most celebrated macro of our time. With more people now shifting to a plant-based diet by opting for a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle, it is essential for nutritionists and the food industry to offer tasty options for such people. For many, vegetarianism is more than a lifestyle. People from different sects of Hinduism, Buddhism, and all Jains are vegetarians. People from these cultures are already having balanced vegetarian meals for ages. A plant-based diet can provide all the nutrients required by your body. And anyway, getting more plants in your diet is never a bad idea.
A vegetarian diet is more accommodating than a vegan diet as it includes dairy products, and some even have eggs. Athletes or bodybuilders can get enough protein from a vegetarian diet. Getting enough protein from the plant is not easy but can be termed superior to animal-based protein.
There are multiple benefits of switching to plant-based protein, such as:
- High in fiber
- Low risk of cardiovascular diseases
- Prevents certain cancers
- No saturated fat or cholesterol
- Easy to digest
- Reduces inflammation
- Decrease recovery time
- Improve blood flow
- Reduce body fat
- Decrease the risk of diabetes
Thousands of champion athletes have switched to plant-based food or either opted for a vegetarian diet. A high protein vegetarian diet plan for muscle gain provides enough protein to support optimal athletic performance. Many UAE-based athletes have also gone vegetarian or vegan.
Are you planning to go vegetarian but still struggling with the thought? Don’t worry; you are not alone. Apart from opting for an environment-friendly lifestyle, you are going to do some good to your body.
No matter how appealing it sounds, turning to vegetarianism can be a tough switch. However, if it’s not for religious reasons, you can go slow. Make the switch slowly, so your pallet and digestive system get accustomed to all veg meals. There are a few more steps you can take for your transition:
- Start slow: Start by adding one completely vegetarian meal a week, and slowly increase the frequency. Once you get comfortable, start practicing one-day meat-off day. In a couple of months, the craving for meat may reduce.
- Add variety: Do not just replace meat with tofu. That’s the very wrong way to go vegetarian. However, there are vegetarian alternatives for all your favorite meats; experts advice to try veggies the way they are supposed to be eaten. All vegetables taste their best when cooked the right way. Thankfully, the plant kingdom offers abundant options. You will never get bored of the same kind of stuff.
- Add some iron supplements: The non-heme iron in plants does not get well-absorbed in your body. You either need to have more quantities of iron-rich vegetables or add vitamin-c rich food, which facilitates iron absorption. There are other ways to make your vegetarian meals iron-rich by cooking them in cast-iron pans. In general, all vegetarians must get 14.4 mg of iron a day, and for women, it is 32.4 mg.
- Add Omega-3: Not just fish, but you can get omega-3 fatty acids from plants. However, they may not be popular ingredients for everyday cooking. You can add them to your diet in different forms and compensate for the deficiency caused due to the elimination of seafood from your diet. Some rich omega 3 fatty acids sources are walnuts, flax seeds, hemp, soy, seaweed, etc.
- Don’t panic about protein intake: Vegetarian meals offer hundreds of protein options. Most adults need 56 g of protein a day which a veg diet can easily supply.
A vegetarian diet has long been associated with skinny people. Most of these thoughts were fed by the meat industry, which wanted to promote its products. Remember Arnold Schwarzenegger saying, “You hit like a vegetarian,” in the movie Escape Plan. The same Arnold calls himself 99% vegan now. He has wholly eliminated meat and dairy from his diet for the past few years, with some exceptions during filming.
In the past few years, many athletes have claimed that switching to a vegan diet has led to remarkable changes in their fitness and performance levels. There are several other advantages of the vegetarian diet for muscle builders:
- Increase in energy: The veg diet provides more energy and stamina for gym and workout.
- Increase in blood flow: It provides more oxygen to muscles and transports more nutrients that help you to heal faster from injuries.
- Reduced inflammation: It can speed up your recovery time and protects the newly formed tissues.
- Increase in muscle efficiency: Studies claim that people who eat nitrate-rich plants could bench-press 19% more than meat-eating subjects.
“Someone asked me, ‘How could you get as strong as an ox without eating any meat?’ and my answer was, ‘Have you ever seen an ox eating meat?’” — Patrik Baboumian, world-record holding strongman
Though we all know a protein-rich diet is a key to bodybuilding, it does not need to include meat. Bodybuilding and muscle gain are definitely possible with a veg diet. There are various rich sources of protein in a vegetarian diet that you can have to create a whole balanced muscle gain diet.
Some of the most nutritious vegetarian protein sources are:
- Edamame
- Lentils
- Pinto Beans
- Soy Products
- Broccoli
- Dairy
- Mung Beans
- Chickpeas
- Quinoa
- Banana Blossoms
- Pistachios
- Chia seeds
- Asparagus
- Avocado
A typical vegetarian bodybuilding diet chart for a day may look like this:
| Pre morning | Breakfast | Lunch | Dinner | Snack | Drink |
| Soaked almonds/ fruit + whey protein | Pear walnut and chia seed pudding/ egg vegetable and cheese sandwich | Cottage cheese fried quinoa with grilled veggies | Chickpea and sweet potato casserole | Sweet potato chips with tzatziki sauce | Banana, milk, Protein powder, cocoa powder, maple syrup smoothie |
