Following a vegan or vegetarian diet can come with a little extra planning. Finding meals that are well balanced, delicious, and easy to prepare can sometimes make dinner feel more complicated than it needs to be.
That’s where our My Food Bag My Vegan & Veggie Bag comes in.
Supported by The Vegan Society, My Vegan & Veggie Bag makes it easier to enjoy delicious vegan and vegetarian recipes at home, with the ingredients delivered straight to your door each week.
What is My Vegan & Veggie Bag?
My Vegan & Veggie Bag is My Food Bag’s dedicated vegan and vegetarian meal kit, designed to make plant-based eating simple, delicious and convenient.
Each week, you can choose from 7 different recipes, including 4 vegan and 3 vegetarian options.
You can mix and match from the full range, so whether you’re fully vegan, vegetarian or simply looking to include more plant-based meals in your week, you can choose the recipes that suit you.
Recipes are dietitian-approved and feature quality New Zealand ingredients alongside a wide variety of plant-based proteins.
You’ll also find an array of cuisines and flavours to keep things interesting. Think Dukkah Roasted Haloumi, Korean Sticky Tofu Bites and Spanish Romesco Chickpeas all in the same week.
Are My Vegan & Veggie Bag meals balanced?
A well-planned vegan or vegetarian diet should include a wide variety of plant foods, alongside different sources of protein and other important nutrients.
That’s something we’ve considered when developing the My Vegan & Veggie Bag recipes. Every meal contains at least 15g of protein per serve, with many providing more.
Our vegan recipes feature a variety of plant-based protein foods, including:
- Tofu
- Chickpeas, lentils and kidney beans
- Falafel
- Quinoa and other grains
- Nuts and seeds
- Peas and edamame
Our vegetarian recipes also include other protein sources such as paneer, eggs, haloumi, feta and yoghurt.
This menu reflects our wider My Food Bag range, including a mix of more nutrition-focused options alongside familiar family favourites. We believe following a vegan or vegetarian diet shouldn’t mean missing out on the meals you love, so we’ve designed the range to give you plenty of choice while keeping balanced meals at the heart of the menu.
Can I choose both vegan and vegetarian meals?
Yes! You don’t have to choose between a vegan or vegetarian subscription.
With 7 recipes available each week, you can mix and match the vegan and vegetarian options depending on what suits you.
If you’re looking for a completely vegan selection, you can choose from the vegan recipes each week. If you enjoy both, you can combine them to create a menu that works for you.
Are the vegan meals completely vegan?
Our vegan meals don’t contain ingredients derived from animal products, including additives, preservatives and processing aids.
However, some ingredients may be produced in facilities where animal products are also present. Where applicable, this will be identified on the product label with a statement such as “may contain” milk, egg, fish, mollusc or crustacea.
For customers following a strict vegan diet, we recommend checking the recipe and ingredient information each week before selecting your meals.
We also currently use a wool-based insulator in some deliveries during warmer months to help keep products cool in transit. We’re working towards an alternative non-wool insulation solution.
Can I only be shown vegan meals?
My Vegan & Veggie Bag customers are shown the full selection of vegan and vegetarian recipes because many households enjoy choosing from both.
If you consistently select vegan meals, these recipes will be shown to you first. However, we recommend checking your selected recipes each week to make sure you’ve chosen the meals that suit your dietary preferences.
How does My Vegan & Veggie Bag work?
Choose from 7 recipes each week and select the meals that appeal to you.
You can choose a 2 or 4 person plan, with options for 3, 4 or 5 nights per week, making it easy to build the meal kit around your household and routine.

It’s a simple way to enjoy delicious vegan and vegetarian dinners without having to spend time planning recipes or shopping for individual ingredients.
