LeafSide 1-Week Meal Plan
Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl
🍄 Embark on a culinary journey with our Creamy Forest Mushroom Bowl, a satisfying savory meal packed with rich mushroom flavor. Delight in earthy, tender mushrooms, a medley of aromatic herbs, and warm, inviting spices. Tender, nourishing quinoa, wholesome oats, and hearty lentils are crowned with a velvety sauce infused with thyme and fennel, wrapping every bite in indulgent comfort. Finished with a delightful crunch of sunflower seeds and cashews, this dish is a harmonious blend of rustic simplicity and refined decadence. 🌿
- Premium porcini mushrooms are prized for their deep flavor, and they’re packed with ergothioneine, a potential “longevity vitamin” to support your healthy aging. Your body has a specific protein that delivers it where it’s needed most, like your eyes, as a powerful antioxidant. 👀 Ergothioneine can also fight dementia and Alzheimer’s, and promote brain health 🧠💪 with every bite.
- With 31 grams of healthy plant protein and an abundance of B vitamins to support energy production, this mushroom medley is ready to power your day! Just one bowl gives you 18 grams of fiber (over half the RDA) to win your gut-health game. 🌾
- Beta-glucan from whole grain oats regulates your immune system and carries cholesterol out of your body. 💗 Protein-packed lentils add resistant starch and oligosaccharides to the mix to keep blood sugar in check and promote a healthy, diverse microbiome. 🦠
- Cashews deliver heart-healthy magnesium and unsaturated fats in layers of creamy sauce. 🤤 Your skin, joints, and bones get an extra boost from copper, an important mineral that helps maintain collagen. 🦴
- Sunflower, flax, and hemp seeds team up to deliver anti-inflammatory antioxidants like vitamin E, lignans, and omega-3 fats. Organic quinoa joins the hemp seeds in supporting tissue health and muscle growth with all 9 essential amino acids. 🏋🏻♂️
- Kale and spinach form a vibrant duo that delivers calcium and vitamin K to improve cardiovascular function and keep your bones strong. Sulfur-containing glucosinolates, precursors to the powerful detox compound sulforaphane, smack down inflammation 🔥 while folate and iron keep your red blood cells healthy and your energy high. 💗
- As part of the allium family, garlic and onions 🧄 🧅 contain organosulfur compounds that can keep cholesterol in check. They’re also packed with antioxidant flavonoids to neutralize free radicals that can cause inflammation and accelerate aging.
All that in just 10 minutes, no prep work required! Just add water, and savor the aroma as the herbs and spices infuse this delectable dish. Who says comfort food can’t be convenient & crazy-nutritious? 🥘

We are on our first batch and have enjoyed them ALL! We got two smoothies this time, and they sure came in handy when I had to run to dog training quickly. I threw it in the Nutri-bullet, and off I ran!
I use one savory bowl for two lunches for hubby, over a grain or potatoes. Hubby loves it, and I love no prep. I put two savory bowls over the potatoes/grains for four lunches, then add some frozen veggies, and he is a happy camper. It takes about 15 minutes to do it all!
I just reordered my next batch. Love it! I thought the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl was great! Give them a try! 😍

I'm an avid fan and perhaps even follower of LeafSide! I eat at least one meal per day, sometimes two!
Thank you LeafSide for all you do to make my life easier and healthier. 👍 I wish I would have discovered these meals years ago when I began my plant-based journey. I've lost weight since I started eating LeafSide meals 3 months ago, and I'm feeling better overall. I'm finally consuming more well-rounded nutrition than ever before.
My favorites are the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl, Sweet Potato Dal Soup, and Broccoli Cashew Alfredo Savory-Bowl.

I am enjoying the LeafSide meals. I have found them to be very tasty and rich. I am enjoying them best by adding to stretch them to make multiple servings. I add simple and easy ingredients, so the cost only goes up a dollar or two, and then the meal price is half the prive per serving, which is very reasonable. I add oatmeal to the Sweet-Bowls and potato, rice, pasta, beans, or frozen veggies to the Soups and Savory-Bowls. The Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl is amazing on mashed or steamed potatoes. The Tex-Mex Savory-Bowl, with added rice and beans, made awesome wraps.
The LeafSide meals give me tasty options that include healthy ingredients I would not usually have. I can not keep all the fancy ingredients on hand, do not enjoy lengthy meal preps, and even when halved, the recipes were too much for one person. I often used to resort to processed vegan and plant-based meats, which I really did not enjoy. I am looking forward to next month's new meals!

I just ate my first breakfast and lunch from LeafSide. I loved them! The smoothie for breakfast was filling and delicious, and the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl for lunch was so well seasoned and tasty. I can't wait to try the other food. I now have a way to stay steady in the WFPB lifestyle, without worrying about cooking and storing food. THANK YOU!!! 😋

I received my first LeafSide box last month! I ordered all the savory meals. The Lentil Tomato Pasta Savory-Bowl is fantastic! So far, I've been adding sautéed greens like spinach or kale to the lentil pasta, which stretches it to two meals. I love my greens!
For the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl, I sauté greens and mushrooms as a base and add the meal on top, which also stretches it to two meals! Maybe I'm a weirdo, but I love to have greens as the base of my meals, and LeafSide meals go perfectly over them.
They add all the stuff that I just don't have the time to cook or buy all those ingredients for 😊
I hope you enjoy experimenting with them, they're so good!

I find LeafSide meals super helpful when you have to cook multiple meals for various taste buds and restrictions, and then your left to cook a wfpb meal for yourself.
I just grab a bag and I am super satisfied. Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl is my favorite!

I’m really excited about my first delivery, and adored my first meal, the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl. Yum! Thank you so much to everyone that makes deliciousness easy and accessible. I’m an artist and a writer starting a new business; life has been overwhelming. I also care about my health, and having healthy SOS-free, vegan choices are important to me. My first bite pretty much indicates I’m a permanent fan.
Plus, huge for me, is that these are practically instant to prepare and consume. Brilliant. Thank you!
I was also excited to get the attached QR code to recipes. These recipes offered the prospect of variety on your standard selections. I NEED variety and get bored quickly. The prospect of easy, quick meals with delicious, mostly pre-prepped ingredients was just what I needed, ensuring a base of healthy robust flavors to build on.

Wow, wow, wow! Our order of 44 meals arrived yesterday, two of each kind so we could try them all.
The first thing that impressed us was the customer service, they actually reached out the next morning to make sure that we meant to place such a large order, as first time customers they wanted us to be sure that we knew their meals might take some “getting used to” flavor wise, especially if we were not already eating this way. They also gave us the option of reducing our order, which was incredibly thoughtful to offer. We replied and told them that we have been WFPB for 4 years and that we were excited to find meals that truly met the high standards of Whole Food Plant Based folks like us and Dr. Gregor. We thanked them and asked that the order be sent as is.
We made our first meals last night, the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl and the Broccoli Cashew Alfredo Savory-Bowl. Both were quite good, so easy to make and VERY filling! We were both blown away by the broccoli, they tasted lightly steamed and still had some crunch! The mushroom bowl was very dense and flavorful, mmmmm porcini!
As easy as making a cup of noodles, no joke, these meals are a real game changer. Thank you, LeafSide!

I made the Garlic Herb Potato Leek Quiche Meal-mod with the Creamy Potato Leek Soup. It was delicious! I'm definitely going to make it again, especially if I have company over.
I also made the Drizzled Balsamic Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms Meal-mod and stuffed peppers with the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl. Both were delicious, especially with a little garlic. ❤️

I’ve been wanting to try this for a few weeks. Leftover Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl over whole pasta and wilted kale, with a drizzle of balsamic. It was DELISH!!! I could have done without the pasta, but wanted to try it. The greens were a way for me to get another serving in my day!

I just started, and the meals are very tasty, packed with flavor and nutrients. The Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl was delicious, and the Creamy Potato Leek Soup was yummy. Can't wait to try others. I have been following Dr. Greger's Daily Dozen Whole Food Plant-Based Low-Fat Vegan no SOS Eating Lifestyle for 4+ years. These meals are a delicious addition to my tired cooking, though I love to cook. I highly recommend LeafSide. Excellent customer service! 👏 👌 👍 🙂🌿🥬🫐🍌🍒🌶

I received my first order yesterday. I had the Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl, and it was delish. I want everyone to know that I had a slight panic during the ordering process due to not understanding that I needed to call to request the SOS-free version. LeafSide not only very rapidly responded to my not-so-nice emails and phone calls, but their customer service was beyond stellar! Even though I have only enjoyed one of my meals, I love this company ❤.

Tried Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl. If you like mushrooms and the herb thyme, you'd love this. The packaging made it look small, but actually, it's easily enough for four people if you serve it with brown rice or potatoes. Steamed cauliflower was wonderful with it. I'm excited to try all the others I ordered.

I like the Pesto & Peppers Pasta Savory-Bowl very much. The noodles are soft enough after sitting in water for 10 minutes. It tastes good, too. It doesn't leave me gassy, unlike some of the other meals. The Creamy Forest Mushroom Savory-Bowl and Broccoli Cashew Alfredo Savory-Bowl are among my next favorites.
