Morrisons Vegan Lean Protein Weight Loss Plan — 1,500 kcal
Anyone aiming for a sustainable calorie deficit. This 7-day plan targets 1,500 kcal/day and averages 66g of protein, built around Morrisons's Savers for an estimated £30–55/week. Meals lean on lower-fat plant protein — tofu, tempeh, seitan, pulses and soya — so each meal carries more protein for the calories it costs, leaving room to hit the day's target without relying on volume alone.

| Budget | £30–55/week estimate | Budget plans keep variety while still prioritising own-brand and batch-friendly ingredients. |
| Prep style | Standard (20–30 min/day) | Standard-prep plans balance variety, fresh meals and realistic weekday cooking. |
