30-Day LeafSide + Whole Food Dinner Reset
Quick Overview
This is a simple plant-based meal rhythm designed to make healthy eating easier, more consistent, and less overwhelming. Each day includes:
Breakfast: LeafSide smoothie + Ezekiel toast or muffin
Lunch: LeafSide sweet bowl + Ezekiel toast or muffin
Snack: Raw veggies + simple dip
Dinner: Big greens bowl with tofu, beans, veggies, tortillas, and a whole-food dressing or sauce.
The goal is not perfection. The goal is to follow a simple, repeatable structure that helps you get more whole plant foods, fiber, greens, beans, fruits, seeds, and protective nutrients into your day.
A Little About LeafSide
LeafSide meals are whole-food, plant-based meal pouches inspired by Dr. Michael Greger’s Daily Dozen, which focuses on getting in a variety of beans, greens, fruits, berries, whole grains, seeds, nuts, herbs, and spices each day. For this reset, we are using LeafSide smoothies and sweet bowls for breakfast and lunch because they make it easier to cover a lot of those plant-based nutrition boxes without overthinking every meal. Dinner rounds out the day with greens, beans, tofu, veggies, tortillas, and a simple whole-food dressing or sauce.
Step 1: Order Your LeafSide Meals
Note: I ordered the smoothies and sweet bowls because I have done LeafSide before and personally love all of the smoothies and sweet bowls. I did not order the savory bowls because they are not my favorite, but that does not mean you are missing out on nutrition. LeafSide meals are built with the same whole-food, plant-based philosophy and include a wide variety of Daily Dozen-style ingredients like fruits, greens, beans, grains, seeds, nuts, herbs, and spices. The most important part is choosing the meals you will actually enjoy and eat consistently.
For One Person
Order 60 LeafSide meals total - enough for 2 LeafSide meals per day for 30 days. Simple breakdown: 30 smoothies, 30 sweet bowls. You can customize this based on what you prefer. If you love smoothies, order more smoothies. If you enjoy the warm, sweet bowls, order more bowls. The bowls are prepared warm, while the smoothies are blended cold, so choose the mix that feels easiest and most enjoyable for you. 60-meal one-time bundle: https://www.goleafside.com/product/plant-proven-power-plan-60-meals/
