Lidl Vegetarian Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Spaghetti with Tomato, Basil & Garlic Sauce and Shaved Parmesan
Description: A simple, satisfying bowl of thin spaghetti tossed in a bright tomato, basil, and garlic sauce, finished with a generous shower of shredded Parmesan. This classic Italian-style dinner comes together in under 20 minutes and is perfectly portioned for one.
Sale items used: Combino thin spaghetti (16 oz.), Combino tomato, basil & garlic pasta sauce (24 oz.), Combino shredded Parmesan cheese (5 oz.)
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Cook about 3 oz. of dry spaghetti (roughly one-fifth of the 16 oz. box) for a single serving. Use approximately 3/4 cup of the pasta sauce and top with 1-2 tablespoons of shredded Parmesan. Store remaining sauce and pasta separately for later in the week if desired.
Tuesday
Meal: Pan-Fried RANA Gnocchi with Broccolini and Sliced Sharp Cheddar
Description: Pillowy RANA gnocchi are pan-fried in a little olive oil until golden and crispy on the outside, then tossed with quickly sauteed broccolini and draped with melted slices of sharp cheddar. It is a hearty, satisfying one-pan meal that highlights two great sale items.
Sale items used: RANA gnocchi (12 oz.), Broccolini (6 oz.), Milbona sliced sharp cheddar cheese (16 oz.)
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Use the full 12 oz. package of gnocchi as a single generous serving. Use the entire 6 oz. package of broccolini, trimmed and halved. Lay 2-3 slices of cheddar over the gnocchi in the final minute of cooking and cover the pan briefly to melt. The remaining cheddar keeps well for the rest of the week.
Wednesday
Meal: Baked Cheese and Sweetpops Tomato Pizza on Jus Rol Pizza Dough with Arugula
Description: A rustic homemade pizza built on Jus Rol pizza dough and topped with sliced sharp cheddar, halved Sweetpops tomatoes, and a handful of fresh baby arugula added after baking. The peppery arugula wilts slightly on the hot pizza and adds a bright, fresh contrast to the melted cheese.
Sale items used: Jus Rol pizza dough (14.1 oz.), Sweetpops tomatoes (1.5 lb.), Milbona sliced sharp cheddar cheese (already purchased Tuesday), Peak Harvest organic baby arugula (5 oz.)
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Use half of the Jus Rol dough sheet for a personal-sized pizza (the other half can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 2 days or used as flatbread). Use about 1/2 cup of halved Sweetpops tomatoes and 3-4 slices of cheddar. Top with a large handful (about 1.5 oz.) of arugula right after pulling from the oven. Bake at 400 degrees F for 12-15 minutes.

Thursday
Meal: Simmered Mrs. T's Pierogies with Crispy Fried Onions and Red Bell Pepper
Description: Classic onion pierogies are boiled then pan-seared until golden, served alongside strips of sauteed red bell pepper and finished with a crunchy topping of crispy fried onions. The combination of soft, pillowy pierogies with sweet peppers and savory crunch makes for a deeply comforting vegetarian dinner.
Sale items used: Mrs. T's frozen pierogies, classic onion (32 oz.), Red bell peppers, 2 ct., Kania crispy fried onions (17.6 oz.)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use about 6-8 pierogies (roughly one-quarter of the 32 oz. bag) for a single serving. Boil until they float, then pan-sear in a little butter or oil for 2-3 minutes per side. Saute one red bell pepper, sliced into strips. Top with 2-3 tablespoons of crispy fried onions. Store remaining pierogies in the freezer and remaining fried onions in a sealed bag.
Friday
Meal: Pan-Heated Vitasia Frozen Edamame Spring Rolls with Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce and Avocado
Description: Crispy edamame spring rolls are pan-heated until golden and served with the included sweet chili dipping sauce alongside sliced fresh avocado for a creamy, satisfying contrast. This is a quick, no-fuss Friday meal that feels like a fun appetizer-style dinner.
Sale items used: Vitasia frozen edamame spring rolls with sweet chili sauce (8.8 oz.), Large avocados, 1 ct.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Serving note: The 8.8 oz. package serves one as a full meal. Pan-heat in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes per side until crispy. Slice one avocado and fan alongside the spring rolls. Use the included sweet chili sauce packet for dipping.
