Dairy-Free Meal Prep Ideas

These are some of my favorite Dairy-Free Meal Prep Recipes that help me stay on top of my week! I don't know about you, but for me, having some meals ready to go and in the fridge is one of the most impactful ways to get myself organized.

When it comes to lunch especially, if I have a meal that's ready to reach for, I'm much more likely to eat well that day. If you find round ups like these helpful, check out my Favorite Dairy-Free Breakfast Recipes and these Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Lunch Ideas, next.

Meal Prep Ramen Jars

I'm so into making these Meal Prep Ramen Jars. Packed with bright veggies, tender chicken, and a super savory sauce, I crave these on-the-go jars and love to make them a couple of times a month.

They're great for January when it's chilly and you need something cozier than a salad jar! Plus, they take 10 minutes to prep. Great with either water or broth, they are super comforting and I love that I feel full but "light" after eating them.

Blueberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Bake

My Blueberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Bake is the perfect dairy and gluten-free breakfast or snack. It makes a delicious dessert, too! I find it really useful to have a tray of this in the fridge.

Delicious warm, at room temperature or even chilled, I love the combination of white chocolate and blueberry bursts. Remember to use certified gluten-free oats to keep it 100% gluten-free.

This Dairy-Free Buffalo Chicken Bake is lighter than a classic buffalo chicken casserole but is so delicious you won't know the difference. I love it with an easy salad or some steamed veggies.

It's a dinner that turns into lunch the next day and is super satisfying! Hearty and delicious, it's a monthly occurrence on my meal prep rotation right now.

Copycat Sweetgreen Harvest Bowl

Copycat Sweetgreen Harvest Bowl is an at home, budget-saver for when I'm craving Sweetgreen but want to make a from scratch version. It's packed with arugula, tender sweet potatoes, glossy Brussels sprouts, succulent chicken, wild rice, cashews and apple. I love it with lashings of balsamic.

Fresh and light, this bowl keeps me full summer or winter and is a fantastic meal prep option. It makes a really good dinner as well as lunch and is pretty much just as, if not more delicious than the original.

French Onion Chicken (Dairy-Free)

French Onion Chicken is insanely yummy. I've always loved French onion soup but let's be honest, it's a little lacking when it comes to protein. So, this is my answer if you love the taste of classic French soup but want to add chicken.

Whip up this easy and delicious Fall Sheet Pan Dinner, loaded with autumnal ingredient combinations like savory sausage, Brussels sprouts red onion and apple. I love the crunch from the fibrous Brussels sprouts alongside sweet and tangy apple.
