Our Disclaimer (The serious stuff)

By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

Spoonacular is not responsible for any adverse effects or damages that occur because of your use of the website or any information it provides (e.g. after cooking/consuming a recipe on spoonacular.com or on any of the sites we link to, after reading information from articles or shared via social media, etc.)

Pinot Noir and Tempranillo are my top picks for Veggie Burger. Since veggie burgers are usually lean, you'll want low to medium tannin wines. Pinot noir is a great choice. Another option is Spanish tempranillo, which pairs nicely with the earthy flavors you might have from beans, lentils, mushrooms, etc. One wine you could try is Goldeneye Gowan Creek Vineyard Pinot Noir. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 80 dollars.

Goldeneye Gowan Creek Vineyard Pinot Noir

Made in the style preferred by our founder, Dan Duckhorn, this wine exudes richness, depth, dark fruit and structure. On the palate, it is deep and lush, with layers of wild blackberry and plum pie supported by a streak of acidity that adds definition to the flavors, while drawing the wine to a lingering finish with hints of lavender, pennyroyal, and Asian spices.
