Plant-Based Meal Planner

CAN I EAT MEAT ON THIS PLAN?
Of course! You gotta make this work for you. While our meal plans and cleanses are meat, dairy, and gluten free, we encourage you to adjust as you want. You can easily add meat, cheese and eggs to most of the recipes...and many rawkstars do that!


HOW MANY MEALS ARE INCLUDED IN THE MEAL PLANNER?
As many as you want! Our meal plans are designed for people with an active lifestyle (shuttling kids, working long hours, chasing dreams). That's why we use the 3-3-3 system (3 meals, 3 snacks, 3 smoothies) as our foundation for you to build upon. You can meal plan every snack, meal and dessert every single day if you want! Yet the reality for most of us is that even committing to making a meal in your kitchen three nights a week might sound like a lot, but you can do it... and your body + mind will thank you for it later!


WHAT IF I CAN’T HAVE CERTAIN NUTS/VEGGIES/FRUITS, ETC? 
We understand that many people in our community have varying allergies, eating habits, and dietary restrictions. Under your profile, you can state any allergies and recipes will be filtered out based on that. We're here to help with common swaps (swapping mangos for peaches, or sun butter for almond butter, etc.), yet we encourage anyone with dietary restrictions to take the meal plans and cleanses to their doctor/nutritionist of guidance in making this work.


I HAVE LIMITED TIME TO PREP. HOW LONG WILL I BE IN THE KITCHEN FOR EACH MEAL?
Cooking whole foods does take longer than a freezer meal, so we are all about the prep ahead tips + tricks, as well as batch cooking when possible. We provide prep guides on how to cook a weeks' worth of quinoa, and making grab and blend smoothie packs so that you can prep ahead like a boss, then ease into each meal ahead of the game. 


WHAT COMES WITH RAWK THE YEAR?
There are three main things that come with Rawk the Year:

Weekly meal plans: These plans are curated from our absolute BEST recipes from our website, published books, cleanses, and other products. You'll also receive brand-new recipes that have not appeared in anywhere else. Each weekly plan includes: 3 smoothie recipes, 3 snack recipes, and 3 meal recipes. It also includes a shopping list, meal plan, and images of each recipe (so you can know what you're aiming to make)!

Seasonal cleanse: You'll have access to our seasonal cleanses to increase results and reset your diet as needed. Our cleanse kits come with meal plans, recipes, shopping lists, prep guides... everything you need to rawk it! Plus, each season we host a live reset to do as a community and coach you through each day.

Accountability: You get access to a private online group that's helpful for accountability, encouragement, and sharing ideas. You'll also get opportunities to Q+A with our team, along with email reminders to keep you moving forward with your goals.


WHAT KIND OF RECIPES ARE INCLUDED?
Let me start by saying this: we aren't against eating meat. We sometimes enjoy it ourselves. However, these recipes are here to help you add in the one thing that will make you look and feel better: plants. So we use lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds. If you'd like to add some dairy to a meal (e.g. cheese), then go for it! If you're planning on cooking these recipes with your meat-eating spouse, then simply add some!

My hope is that these meal plans + cleanses will be something you can ACHIEVE every single week... and that you'll feel better and look better as a result. So, our plans are created with a plant-based mindset, but feel free to adjust to your lifestyle.


HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
After your 14-day free trial, the monthly cost is $25. Once you fall in love with it, you can save up to 50% by doing our annual membership option which lowers it to 12.50 a month. There are no contracts or extra fees, so you can cancel at any time and not be charged again.


DO I HAVE TO PAY EXTRA FOR THE SEASONAL CLEANSES?
Absolutely not! That's the beauty of Rawk the Year. Each season kicks off with our best-selling seasonal cleanse... and they're INCLUDED with your membership. 


CAN MY WHOLE FAMILY PARTICIPATE?
Yes! These plans will most likely introduce some new flavors and ingredients to your kiddos, yet the recipes are so delicious that I bet they'll learn to love them quickly! You can adjust serving sizes, read other rawkstars reviews and choose the recipes you want to make.


IF I DON'T WANT TO DO THE CLEANSE, WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?
We kick off every season of Rawk the Year with a cleanse/reset program. Yet you don't HAVE to go through the complete program. You have the choice of doing our Fresh Start Cleanses (spring + autumn) and Thrive Resets (summer + winter), OR you can choose to do our normal meal plans during these weeks (3 meals, 3 snacks, 3 smoothies). Our promise is to deliver 52 meal plans throughout the entire year, and we won't stop during LIVE cleanse + reset periods.


HOW DIFFICULT ARE THE RECIPES TO MAKE?
We want this to be as achievable as possible for you. So, we've picked simple recipes that taste amazing for our meal plans. You don't have to worry about hours of prepping and spending your evenings in the kitchen. We also try our best to make our shopping lists affordable by selecting recipes with similar ingredients each week.

Some of our recipes in our published books and other products can have a few extra steps. That's how plant-based eating can occasionally be. However, the recipes in this meal plan have been simplified without sacrificing their delicious-ness. We include shortcuts to save prep + cooking time, because we want this to become a lifestyle that you enjoy! Plus, who wants to do extra dishes?


I'M NOT A GREAT COOK, WILL THIS MEAL PLAN WORK FOR ME?
Don't worry, I (Jen) am not a great cook either... by the time I finished college I knew how to make a whopping three-whole recipes (bean burritos, pancakes, and quesadillas). That's why we made sure that our recipes are very clear + concise. We include hacks and prep tips in each meal plan to make your time in the kitchen go down instead of up. If you're looking to make 5-minute meals every night of the week, then this program may not be for you.

If you're trying to find ways to include more nutritious foods that will fuel your active life, then you can definitely do our plans! And don't worry, we don't expect you to make a home-cooked, gourmet feast every night of the week. We've left space in the plans for you to order out, use leftovers, or even heat up a box of macaroni if you get too busy :-)


I HAVE A CRAZY BUSY SCHEDULE, IS THIS REALISTIC FOR ME?
This plan was made for YOU! There may be some who wish our plans had recipes mapped out for every meal of every day. If that's what you're looking for, then you can find those all over the world wide web... but you won't find them here. Our meal plans are designed for people with an active lifestyle (shuttling kids, working long hours, chasing dreams). That's why we use the 3-3-3 system (3 meals, 3 snacks, 3 smoothies a week). If you stick with that, you've succeeded!  

Committing to making a meal in your kitchen three nights a week might sound like a lot, but you can do it... and your body + mind will thank you for it later! Prepping nutrient-dense snacks to take to work (or your kids events) can help you when you're craving a frappuccino or a pastry—they can even work as a small lunch in a pinch! Blending three smoothies a week to drink for breakfast (or mid-morning snack) will give your body a much-needed energy boost, along with delivering high levels of fiber, protein, and vitamins.
