    Mindful Plate Club

    Ready to reduce decision fatigue while saving hundreds of dollars?

    Free up your mental space by having a done-for-you dinner plan each week.

    Start your 7 day trial →

     

    Imagine this:

    It's 5:30 pm. You've just finished your day. Instead of staring into the fridge or scrambling through recipe websites, you open your inbox, pull up your week's plan, and feel a wave of relief.

    You already know what's for dinner. The shopping list is ready. You prepped ahead on the weekend. You feel calm, collected, and in control.

    You walk into the kitchen, confident. You're not fatigued, you're present - connecting with your food, your family and yourself.

    The Mindful Plate Club takes the stress out of cooking.

    A laptop screen with a meal plan, a tablet with 4 photos of dinners and days of the week, and a shopping list on a smart phone.

    Do you feel...

    😩

    overwhelmed at dinnertime?

    😰

    anxious with the amount of money you're spending on food?

    😮‍💨

    exhausted at the end of the workday?

    😫

    paralyzed by the idea of making yet another decision today?

    😢

    isolated because you don't know any other vegans?

    You just need an easy to follow plan.

    Here's what that plan looks like:

    Customizable meal plans:

    You open your email to view the weekly meal plan and decide if you want to make changes. You can switch out a recipe for your favorite or change the serving size.

    Adaptable shopping list:

    → so you feel organized and waste-free, not scrambling or overspending

    After you make changes to the meal plan in the member dashboard, those changes will show in the shopping list. Check what you already have and cross those things off the list. You can even add items to the list!

    About Me

    Willow Moon with green shirt and tie dye scarf.

    Hi, I am Willow Moon. I am the recipe developer, author, and photographer at Create Mindfully. I create easy vegan gluten free recipes that the whole family will love.

    I have been vegan since 1999. I am also gluten free because I have a gluten intolerance, but the recipes on this website can easily be made with wheat products.

    Before starting Create Mindfully, I was an elementary school teacher. There were many days I had little energy to spend much time in the kitchen.

    I struggled with overwhelm around dinnertime. Many times, I reached for frozen dinners or unhealthy choices because I didn't have a plan in place.

    I had too many other things on my mind to have the bandwidth to worry about dinner every single night.

    Since becoming a food blogger, I started planning out meals ahead of time, mainly out of necessity that comes with the job. I noticed that I was not only was less stressed around dinnertime, but I was saving money and wasting less food.

    My goal in creating the Mindful Plate Club is to provide an easy-to-follow plan so you don't have to scroll endlessly looking for recipes or spend time creating a shopping list.

    Try your FREE 7-day trial →
    What are the recipes like?

    A typical week would include Vegan Mushroom Lasagna, Portobello Fajitas, Tofu Sloppy Joes, Vegan Enchiladas, and Refried Bean Tacos.

    Another week might be Tofu Bell Pepper Stir Fry, Vegan Gyros, BBQ Jackfruit Sandwiches, Black Bean and Corn Chili, and Caramelized Onion and Mushroom Pasta.

    Can I customize the meal plans if I have specific dietary needs?

    Yes, but you may want to look at the available recipes first. All the recipes on Create Mindfully are already vegan and gluten free. And since I found out I also have a corn intolerance, many are made without corn.

    However, if you need recipes that are low in sugar for example, you may want to see my Vegan Keto category to see if there are enough recipes for you to become a member.

    Also note: I offer a FREE 7 day trial so you can see if a membership is right for you. I am adding new and exclusive recipes all the time, and as a member you could request certain recipes.

    I am already overwhelmed with all the things on my to-do list, how will I have time for a membership?

    That's exactly why I created this membership - to provide an easy doable system that frees up your mental energy and time for other things. With a plan in place, you'll have one less thing to worry about!

    You don't need to search all over the internet for a recipe to make everyday. And with the meal prep steps and tips I give, weeknight cooking will go easier and smoother.

    You won't have to write up a grocery list because it's done for you. The membership will actually save you time and worry.

    What if it's just me and my partner?

    No problem! The meal plans are easily customizable. You can have only 3 meals in your plan, or you can adjust the servings.

    I also provide tips for using leftovers and leftover ingredients.

    Is there a refund or cancellation policy if it's not right for me?

    I want you to be fully satisfied. If it's not right for you, simply cancel before the free trial is over or before your next billing cycle if your membership has already started.

    Since this is a digital subscription, I do not offer refunds. You'll be able to cancel your membership in your account tab.

    Am I going to have to learn how to use the technology for this?

    The software I use literally took me minutes to learn. It's super easy and intuitive.

    I've included several videos on how to customize the meal plans and use the shopping list feature. Each video is only a few minutes long.

    And, if you have any questions, I am here to help! You can always ask me in the Facebook group or email me personally, and I'll get back to you as quickly as possible.

    Is this for anyone, or do I have to be in the U.S.?

    At this time, this membership is only for people in the United States and Canada. I tried coming up with a solution, but because of VAT taxes and how complicated they can be, that is what it has to be for now.

    Namaste, I'm Willow!
