Hi guys! I'm so excited to FINALLY share this video with you. I had so much fun filming it and you know how much I love my Vitamix. Make sure to watch to the end for sneaky drone footage in my kitchen as well. ;) I hope you enjoy the video and let me know if you'd like to see more "what I eat in a day" videos in the future. xo - Lisa
I hope vitamix paid you A LOT of money for this collab, it's probably the best video/commercial they will ever have! Btw, the tone and lighting of the vid was beautiful. Not so blown out, perfect saturation!
So glad you loved the video and quality! I always have ideas in my head and it's so fun to see it come to life. Vitamix is a great partner for sure and I'm so thankful to work with them. :) x
Truth Teller that is a really ignorant comment. You imply several incorrect assumptions. 1) that a woman needs a man to be ‘rich’. Women can be the income earners and make more money than men in the relationship and this is more and more often the case. This isn’t 1940. 2) That to be ‘put-together’ a person needs only to be ‘rich’. This is not true at all. Being put-together is a state of mind and has no relation to the amount of money in a person’s bank account. Being put-together takes routine and good habits and discipline. As a nanny I have worked for several ‘rich’ families that are the exact opposite of ‘put-together’, if a person is messy and disorganized they are the same whether they have money or not. Also, in regards to this video, because Lisa states “because I’m just one person and I’ve always got leftovers” this implies that she obviously doesn’t need a “rich man” to be this awesome. She just is. Most likely because she is disciplined and works towards the things she wants in her life.
Great video Lisa! Your recipes are only enhanced by the wonderful production value and care you put into making them. Really enjoying your content; thank you for sharing it!
It is really pleasant to see a "what I eat in a day" video of someone eats egg, chicken, cheeese real cheese and dairy in a healthy way 😍 loved the video 🌸
Maha Alshammeri You can check clean and delicious. No one is asking you to look at the ones that are either vegan or vegetarian. I watch these videos with or without the meat or fish and don’t go complaining. Your life do what is best for you ❤️❤️❤️
I remember saving up for my first Vitamix as well, years before I ever became a food blogger. It was such a great motivator to help me adopt healthier eating habits. :) Enjoy the new hummus recipe Mary! x
Hi Lisa, I'm from Colombia🇨🇴, and let me tell you that your nutritious recipes have reached a colombian home. I love your videos, not just the food part but your speech is flawless and calm. Thank you for sharing that much of you.
Love your minimalist aesthetic and healthy lifestyle. Thanks so much for all of the great ideas you share and the time you put in to making quality videos.
Hey Lisa. I’ve been binge watching your videos and I keep saying “ wow” to myself because wow. The quality, your voice, the cleanliness everything is just wow, amazing. I’m 25 and trying to eat well but finding it hard to. I’ll keep watching and take baby steps it’s really hard . Im a new subbie and also subscribed to your website for more. Thank you for sharing.🧘♂️
YOU'RE DIET HABITS DEFINITELY ARE A GREAT EXAMPLE.... AND EXPLAIN THE BEAUTIFUL RADIANT GLOW THAT YOU HAVE ... SUCH AN INCREDIBLE WORK ETHIC... MUCH RESPECT
Here’s a tip from an Italian. Add cheese after you’ve blended your pesto. Putting cheese in blender or processor heats up and changes flavor of cheese. Not good.
I’ve been watching your videos for almost an hour. I cook for my mother everyday to help her lose her weight. I found your videos are very helpful for me to help my mother. Thank you and subscribed! 🤗❤️
Lisa, I am so happy I discovered your channel and videos. It’s just so therapeutic to watch and listen to you. There’s something magical about it. You’re an incredibly inspiring person. Thank you for your time, energy and love that you share 💕☘️
oh I love that you showed us your stand up computer adjustable desk. You've got the most amazing set ups!! As well as great meal prep and eating habits!!
Hello Lisa. It feels great to have found you. I love and appreciate your language skills, your speaking speed, and of course, your knowledge about the type of foods that resonate with me. I will be “rummaging” through your channel for more and more great content. 😍
What a beautiful video Lisa. I almost feel like I've taken a holiday! There is something very calming about your well balanced life. This is what I strive for. Thank you!
What a Delicious Day! 😃. Everything you put together is something I would like to try! I Really loved the idea of the zucchini noodle dish you made. Thanks!😃😃😃 You’re very pretty, fun and helpful. Thanks for sharing your bright ideas with others in the kitchen! Bon appétit and blessings!
Hi Lisa! This is one of my favorite videos that you’ve published. I love that you shared your morning walk along the beach! Beautiful! I am in the process of overcoming several health issues that hit me ,suddenly, a few years ago, that include diabetes and heart attack among them. So, as you can imagine, I had a very limited menu selection. I really appreciate your channel! Your healthy recipes have thoroughly expanded my culinary world! You’re AWESOME!!! 😎👍
I’m just so obsessed with your videos! Your lifestyle is my dream life. Your voice is so soothing. Watching your video is like a therapy session but better😭
I'm interested in starting my own herb garden in my apartment, but I'm not sure how. Could you make a video showcasing yours and maybe some tips for us how want to get started? 😍
I love my new little herb garden. And yes, I could definitely do that in a future video. It's sure handy for cooking and adding flavor to meals as well! :) x
Please, make a video regarding your herb garden as I would like to do the same in my house. I also very much like the idea of putting your herbs in water glasses in your fridge. I keep mine in their produce bags, or rather, I did. Also, who makes that desk?@@Downshiftology
I just FINALLY got the exact same vitamix this week and stumbled upon your video today! Very well done video. I appreciate that you've covered all these meals in one single video. Love from a French girl in Los Angeles. Xo
Lol. Midwesterner here to! Used to live in California but CO is home now. While the Cali folk have the Coastline, we have the beautiful endless Rockies and rivers to walk/run through!
Evie Addy ha! I studied at Leeds in the 90s and know that park well - especially for the terrific firework display every year. At least it’s a nice big park & nicely hilly, though. I moved to the US Midwest years ago, which is as flat as a bloody billiard table - so I’d love the idea of Roundhay Park right now... :)
Hi there! I love your channel! You have such a soothing voice and I appreciate how you don't talk super fast and rush through your videos. Would love to see you vlog a day in the life type vlog. I love my Vitamix. I ha vs a 7500 series. Pretty simple, but it's wonderful! Have a great Sunday! ☺
Thanks so much Tracey for your kind words! I'm glad you love your Vitamix as well. And I've been debating more vlog style, but I don't know if I'm so good at holding the camera and talking at the same time. Will have to ponder. Lol! ;) x
Yes! More What I Eat in a Day videos! This was so fun to watch. Also, if you have any knife sharpening skills, that might be a great tutorial, too. Thank you for your great site- I recommend you all the time to friends who need recipe ideas.
Hey Lisa, Just watched this video following France's big World Cup win!! I love your videos! I was pleasantly surprised that you're growing basil on your balcony. I live in a flat in Paris, France and I'm growing herbs, fruit and tomatoes on my balconies as well. I've got 4 basil plants which I've got all kinds of lovely plans to make pesto and freeze herbs for the winter! My son loves basil pesto and hummus so I'm definitely going to make your recipes! Also a huge thank you for the frozen yogurt recipe! This is most definitely going to be a favorite all summer long!
That's awesome you're growing herbs on your balcony as well! I missed having my hanging wall herbs in my old place, so I'm loving my new little garden. And yes, pesto is the best and freezes so well. I hope you and your son enjoy the frozen yogurt recipe! :) x
And once again.... I’m addicted 😂 and in awe.... I cannot believe the combinations you come up with time after time after time...... yes.... some you’d have to force feed me 🤣 but the rest I’d happily gobble down again and again, you’re a blessing to TH-cam and all us not so savvy meal preppers!!!!!!!!! God bless you!!!!
This is a great video! Delicious recipes, hummus and pesto! Wonderful! I have a Vitamix and tend to use it for smoothies most often. The scraper and little cup attachment is awesome!! Thank you!
I'm watching this video and at the exact moment you talked about adding salt I was pulling out a pack of coarse salt to have with a bit of sugar and liquid as I have severe dehydration due to having all but I metre of my intestine removed over the years due to having crohns disease since I was a little girl. My body doesn't absorb salt like most people so my gastroenterologist of 25 years makes sure I have at least 1 tablespoon of salt extra a day plus my body craves salt. I do add it to food but to help my craving I also just eat salt with some form of liquid. Water doesn't stay in me long enough so I use natural sugar sources with water to help. I'm new to your channel but I've loved every video so far. I watch and listen why I'm meal prepping, getting ready, before I sleep, when I wake up etc. I actually really appreciate you for all the hard work you put into making each and every video. Not only am I learning from you but because I'm also 80% bedridden your videos keep me entertained and thinking healthy. Sometimes we forget to thank people and to let them know that what they are doing impacts our lives in a positive way. So thank you so much for doing so much for your subscribers because you are needed on TH-cam. Xx
Watched this again. I needed a refresher on the pesto for the September Whole 30 first week. And, it reminded me how much I love humus, and the frozen yogurt, which I might have to sneak in tomorrow. These videos are so helpful. Thank you, Lisa!
Beautiful and amazing!!! This was an awesome video ! What a beautiful place to exercise. And I love to watch what you put together with your Vitamix. Everything looked yummy. I love your porch/patio. Were those gardenia's? They have the best smell. Love the herb garden. Thanks for all the inspiration! Take care!👩🍳🏃♀️👩💻🦋🍍💟🌼😋👍
Thanks so much! So happy you loved the video! And yes, that's a gardenia and smells absolutely lovely on my patio. I'm so thrilled with my little herb garden as well. Can't wait to whip up more recipes with all those herbs! Have a wonderful day! :) x
I ordered you cookbook and it arrives today!! Wooohooo!!! So glad I found you. I made that fabulous chicken salad on Saturday and it was divine. Looking forward to the cookbook and watching your videos.
This is a fantastic video ! I’m so glad it popped up in my recommendations ! A vitamix is definitely going on my Christmas list lol , great job ! Subscribed !
I’ve become so obsessed with your channel and videos! Thank you! Would love to see a video or a blog post on the length of refrigerating certain food. Such as, how many days can cooked chicken be placed in the fridge and still be okay to consume? Thank you again! 🤗
Thanks so much Mary! And I'm trying to do a better job of indicating food storage times on my meal prep videos (make sure to download the PDF on my spring video). :)
So glad I just found your channel! I've been looking high and low for something just like it. Your content is perfect and the quality of your videos is fabulous. :). thank you!!
I am new and SO LATE to the green smoothie train... and can’t quite afford a Vitamix just yet. I purchased an $80 blender and it’s been doing pretty good. I was surprised with its performance to be honest. Lol! Buuuut I am STILL starting a coffee can to save up for my Vitamix! Thanks for sharing your meals for today! Everything is so totally right up my alley!
It's never too late to join the smoothie train! ;) And yes, I Vitamix is definitely an investment but I think so worthwhile. Hope you enjoy all of the recipes!
Your “what i eat in a day” videos are the most realistic ones i find on youtube. They also inspire me to start eating healthy. Keep up the great work! Greetings from Kuwait🇰🇼!
Your videos have been a breath of fresh air to me. Not only do I love the healthy recipes, but the peaceful lifestyle is so appealing too. I noticed in this and another video you are out walking, along a breathtaking coast and through these beautiful hills. What region is this video made. Much love from the Florida coast.
I finally got my Vitamix and I can’t wait to try all your recipes. I really enjoy your channel. Please make more what you eat in a day and basics videos.
Cool Video. For the humus you can use (unsweetend) Peanutbutter instead of Tahini. It is a interesting new flavor and a little change. Greatings from Germany
You've become my number 1 favorite vlogger. The production and pace of yours are captivating. I'm about to purchase a Vitamix, and so your vids have been hugely inspiring and helpful. I also love the fact you give the proportions/recipe in your meals/cooking so that it's easy for us to emulate. I feel like you're a next door neighbor/friend when I watch these videos. Yes, I'm subscribed for more! Thank you!
Watching this makes me realize just how hurried I've allowed myself to become by life and the people in my life... Whew. And thank you for all of the good food ideas.
Really like your videos. The real life aspect and balance, not too over the top one way or another. That's all I use most times in my salad is olive oil and balsamic syrup, salt and pepper. I have a blender but the Vitamix seems very handy.
Today is the first time I 'happened' across your channel. I've been sitting here now for 2 hours, watching video after video on auto play! I happened across your channel while researching some information on anti-inflammatory diets because my husband is suffering with digestive issues. I personally have been trying to eat a more anti-inflammatory diet myself as I suffer with Asthma and Arthritis, but the recipes I've come across have not been very appealing to me. I love the simple things you've demonstrated in the videos I watched this morning, and am looking forward to trying out your recipes. I've subscribed to your channel, and am looking forward to watching more! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and recipes. Joyce C, Las Vegas, NV
Hi Joyce - I am so glad you discovered my channel and that they can help you on your journey to a healthier lifestyle! For more recipes, check out my website here as well: downshiftology.com
I love this video! Have been trying to eat more veggies for awhile now to lose my pregnancy weight but I have been having a hard time coming up with easy, flavorful recipes. This is very inspiring and motivating. Thank you!
This is such a great video. Thanks for doing it. I love my Vitamix and on any given day I use it, at least twice. I make my bullet proof coffee in it every morning and my green smoothie at lunch. Of course, on meal prep day, I use it countless times. Can't imagine what I'd do without it!
Dear Lisa..., I enjoyed to watch this video again and again...thanks for fantastic recipes , for every single one you share with us. Every time amazing content ! I love my vitamix , too...just after your videos I use it more, actually, every day. Thank you so much 😊 .👏🏻🌹❤️🙋🏻♀️👌
Everything looks so tasty and the video quality is amazing! So are your drone flying skills. =) Oddly enough the video also makes me think about how many times a day you have to do dishes XD. Basically one of the main, lazy reasons I avoid making food throughout the week is just to avoid doing dishes. Especially the blender which I find can be a bit unwieldy/dangerous in my clumsy hands.
My husband and I are senior citizens and very much into healthy living. Your videos are pack full of good wholesome information and easy to follow recipes. We're saying YES to more videos! Thank you so much and enjoy your drone. ;-)
Omg everything looks amazing 😋I need to try the smoothie.. and I love ice cream but I need to stay away from it , but your frozen mango looks yummy 😋 thank you for your video gave me some ideas 👍🏼
Thank you for the variety of suggestion of what to do with zoodles. I have a spiralizer and was ready to get rid of it because I was unable to find good suggestions of what to do with them.
Love your channel! I would be so proud of myself if I ate all those veggies in one day! haha I will get there some day! ;) Thank you for the content and inspiration you provide!
Downshiftology ... or more exactly: Live Life Beautifully. I loved the content here and would very much enjoy future "what I eat in a day" videos. Good job!
Thanks for your videos. Very helpful and your so I nice person you care for people and want them too love healthy. I love my blender and want to learn more I wish there was a group gathering or some one to share with me different ideas in north Carolina. Thanks for helping and caring. Blessings.
I really love your recipes. They are modern and yet somehow traditionell and tasty without all that strange nonsense that is super difficult to find in any store.
In one of your last videos you talked about how you never use plasic for food storage and how you love your BPA free glasslock containers. I was suprised when I saw you use those canned chickpeas. Did you really find a brand that uses BPA free cans? I have been looking everywhere but never found one. While canning, the food is really hot and after that it sits in that can for weeks or even months. Since the inside coating of most cans isn't BPA free, I've switched to using dried chickpeas.
No, I still do use some plastics, I'm just doing my best to reduce my consumption and avoid where possible. I'm definitely not perfect. :) But ironically, the can of chickpeas I used were BPA-free: amzn.to/2L1hr3K
Tatiana Luján I have ;) Here in Germany they are available as well. Unfortunately the lid of the jars I found isn't BPA free, either. But I learned that there are BPA free cans (thanks to Downshiftology), so I guess there are BPA free lids available as well. I just didn't find them. Probably the problem is that I usually shop at normal supermarkets. But to be honest, I stopped looking a while ago, when I decided to use the dried ones. At first I was annoyed by the fact that I had to plan my meals ahead and had to soak the chickpeas over night. That seemed like a lot of work (at first). I'm used to that now and it really isn't a big deal. And what I like about them is that they are cheaper than the ones in jars and they usually don't require that much packaging. So they help me to save money and avoid waste :)
Hi guys! I'm so excited to FINALLY share this video with you. I had so much fun filming it and you know how much I love my Vitamix. Make sure to watch to the end for sneaky drone footage in my kitchen as well. ;) I hope you enjoy the video and let me know if you'd like to see more "what I eat in a day" videos in the future. xo - Lisa
Downshiftology hey Lisa i realy want to buy a witamix witch one Is yours? And Where i can find it 😘😘
Love these types of videos Lisa, keep them coming... 💙🙂
I know the grass is always greener, but I have holy envy of your day's start and pacing. 😇
I have the A3500 and it's linked in the video description. :) x
Super
I hope vitamix paid you A LOT of money for this collab, it's probably the best video/commercial they will ever have! Btw, the tone and lighting of the vid was beautiful. Not so blown out, perfect saturation!
So glad you loved the video and quality! I always have ideas in my head and it's so fun to see it come to life. Vitamix is a great partner for sure and I'm so thankful to work with them. :) x
Hahahaha
Any blender will do, I have a Nutribullet
There needed to be clean-up instructions included. It looks heavy and I expect not so easy to clean.
Jean Cimler Vitamix has a clean cycle, just add warm warm and a little dish soap. It’s so much easier than a food processor.
You are so cool. Working from home, living in a gorgeous home, eating healthy, playing with drones.
I wanna have your life. Except with a dog. Haha
I strive to be at this level of put-togetherness 😭
It gets easier with practice. :)
Truth Teller that is a really ignorant comment. You imply several incorrect assumptions. 1) that a woman needs a man to be ‘rich’. Women can be the income earners and make more money than men in the relationship and this is more and more often the case.

I saved for five years to buy my Vitamix and I've used it every day since! Thank you for the new roasted red pepper hummus recipe!

I do add it to food but to help my craving I also just eat salt with some form of liquid. Water doesn't stay in me long enough so I use natural sugar sources with water to help. I'm new to your channel but I've loved every video so far. I watch and listen why I'm meal prepping, getting ready, before I sleep, when I wake up etc. I actually really appreciate you for all the hard work you put into making each and every video. Not only am I learning from you but because I'm also 80% bedridden your videos keep me entertained and thinking healthy. Sometimes we forget to thank people and to let them know that what they are doing impacts our lives in a positive way. So thank you so much for doing so much for your subscribers because you are needed on TH-cam. Xx
This video is so beautiful! Hahaha seriously the filming is so well done. You are talented! And of course amazing recipes as usual!
Aww, thanks so much Dani! I'm so happy you enjoyed it. It was definitely fun to film as well. :) x
I love you videos!! I would love to see a grocery haul and how to organize your fridge/ freezer!
Thanks Kelcie! Maybe I'll do those in the future. :)
Love this video! Yes, "what you eat in a day" for each season would be great. Thank you for taking the time and effort to do this.😉💖
You're welcome Cindi! Glad you enjoyed it. And a seasonal approach would be great!
Watched this again. I needed a refresher on the pesto for the September Whole 30 first week. And, it reminded me how much I love humus, and the frozen yogurt, which I might have to sneak in tomorrow. These videos are so helpful. Thank you, Lisa!
Beautiful and amazing!!! This was an awesome video ! What a beautiful place to exercise. And I love to watch what you put together with your Vitamix. Everything looked yummy. I love your porch/patio. Were those gardenia's? They have the best smell. Love the herb garden. Thanks for all the inspiration! Take care!👩🍳🏃♀️👩💻🦋🍍💟🌼😋👍
Thanks so much! So happy you loved the video! And yes, that's a gardenia and smells absolutely lovely on my patio. I'm so thrilled with my little herb garden as well. Can't wait to whip up more recipes with all those herbs! Have a wonderful day! :) x
I ordered you cookbook and it arrives today!! Wooohooo!!! So glad I found you. I made that fabulous chicken salad on Saturday and it was divine. Looking forward to the cookbook and watching your videos.
This is a fantastic video ! I’m so glad it popped up in my recommendations ! A vitamix is definitely going on my Christmas list lol , great job ! Subscribed !
Glad you enjoyed the video!
I’ve become so obsessed with your channel and videos! Thank you! Would love to see a video or a blog post on the length of refrigerating certain food. Such as, how many days can cooked chicken be placed in the fridge and still be okay to consume? Thank you again! 🤗
Thanks so much Mary! And I'm trying to do a better job of indicating food storage times on my meal prep videos (make sure to download the PDF on my spring video). :)
Yes, a new video!!! 😍🙌🏾
Hope you enjoy it!! :) x
I did, I remember your IG story when you showed your new desk. Your voice is so realxing :)
So glad I just found your channel! I've been looking high and low for something just like it. Your content is perfect and the quality of your videos is fabulous. :). thank you!!
Wonderful! So happy to heat that Lynn. :) Welcome to Downshiftology!
I am new and SO LATE to the green smoothie train... and can’t quite afford a Vitamix just yet. I purchased an $80 blender and it’s been doing pretty good. I was surprised with its performance to be honest. Lol! Buuuut I am STILL starting a coffee can to save up for my Vitamix! Thanks for sharing your meals for today! Everything is so totally right up my alley!
It's never too late to join the smoothie train! ;) And yes, I Vitamix is definitely an investment but I think so worthwhile. Hope you enjoy all of the recipes!
Your “what i eat in a day” videos are the most realistic ones i find on youtube. They also inspire me to start eating healthy. Keep up the great work! Greetings from Kuwait🇰🇼!
Thanks so much! I appreciate it. :)
Ah Lisa! This video is soo beautifully done! I love this.
Thanks so much! ❤️
Your videos have been a breath of fresh air to me. Not only do I love the healthy recipes, but the peaceful lifestyle is so appealing too. I noticed in this and another video you are out walking, along a breathtaking coast and through these beautiful hills. What region is this video made. Much love from the Florida coast.
Can u please make a video on that patio herb garden. I’m in southern Cali also and have no yard lol
I love my little patio herb garden! I've had several requests for that, so I'll see if I can squeeze it in. :)
I finally got my Vitamix and I can’t wait to try all your recipes. I really enjoy your channel. Please make more what you eat in a day and basics videos.
Congrats on getting your first Vitamix Sylvia! 😊Can't wait for you to make all my recipes.
Great video - and I love watching the Vitamix in action.
I agree! It's very mesmerizing. :)
I just love easy you make eating healthy look. Love that their wasn’t a lot of prep or cooking! I love the drone and you live in a gorgeous area!!
Thanks so much Cheryl!
You’re right fresh basil smell really good!
It sure does!
I am so in love with you! Everything in your videos are good! even your voice makes things so easy to follow. THANK YOU!
Thanks so much Vanessa for your kind words!
Cool Video. For the humus you can use (unsweetend) Peanutbutter instead of Tahini. It is a interesting new flavor and a little change. Greatings from Germany
Great tip on the peanut butter! I've heard some use sunflower seed butter as well. Hugs to Germany! :) x
I just stumbled across you today and I love your ideas and videos. Your voice is so calming and your videos are so relaxing to listen to. Thank you!
Thanks so much Ashley!
Nice one! Love your patio!
Thank you! I'm definitely enjoying my patio this summer as well. :)
You've become my number 1 favorite vlogger. The production and pace of yours are captivating. I'm about to purchase a Vitamix, and so your vids have been hugely inspiring and helpful. I also love the fact you give the proportions/recipe in your meals/cooking so that it's easy for us to emulate. I feel like you're a next door neighbor/friend when I watch these videos. Yes, I'm subscribed for more! Thank you!
Thanks so much for your kind words! I'm happy you're enjoying my recipes and videos. :) x
Watching this makes me realize just how hurried I've allowed myself to become by life and the people in my life... Whew. And thank you for all of the good food ideas.
Really like your videos. The real life aspect and balance, not too over the top one way or another. That's all I use most times in my salad is olive oil and balsamic syrup, salt and pepper. I have a blender but the Vitamix seems very handy.
Thanks Beth! It's really all about balance :)
Ugh this is the dream life! I hope one to be this healthy one day when I move out.
Today is the first time I 'happened' across your channel. I've been sitting here now for 2 hours, watching video after video on auto play! I happened across your channel while researching some information on anti-inflammatory diets because my husband is suffering with digestive issues. I personally have been trying to eat a more anti-inflammatory diet myself as I suffer with Asthma and Arthritis, but the recipes I've come across have not been very appealing to me. I love the simple things you've demonstrated in the videos I watched this morning, and am looking forward to trying out your recipes. I've subscribed to your channel, and am looking forward to watching more! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and recipes.

Hi Joyce - I am so glad you discovered my channel and that they can help you on your journey to a healthier lifestyle! For more recipes, check out my website here as well: downshiftology.com
Love you so much. Always give me more simple and healthy ideas!!!!
So glad you enjoyed the video Kate and got some new recipe ideas! :) x
I love this video! Have been trying to eat more veggies for awhile now to lose my pregnancy weight but I have been having a hard time coming up with easy, flavorful recipes. This is very inspiring and motivating. Thank you!
So glad you loved the video Monica! I hope it (and my other recipes) can provide some healthy ideas and inspiration for you. :) x
I'd love to see more of these!
Wonderful! Thanks for letting me know Jackie! :) x
This is such a great video. Thanks for doing it. I love my Vitamix and on any given day I use it, at least twice. I make my bullet proof coffee in it every morning and my green smoothie at lunch. Of course, on meal prep day, I use it countless times. Can't imagine what I'd do without it!
Yay! Cheers to loving our Vitamix blenders! And I'm right there with you...I'd be lost without it. :) x
All the meals look healthy and delicious, thanks for sharing.
You're welcome Stacy!
Dear Lisa..., I enjoyed to watch this video again and again...thanks for fantastic recipes , for every single one you share with us. Every time amazing content ! I love my vitamix , too...just after your videos I use it more, actually, every day. Thank you so much 😊 .👏🏻🌹❤️🙋🏻♀️👌
My pleasure 😊Can't wait for you to make tons of my Vitamix recipes!
Everything looks so tasty and the video quality is amazing! So are your drone flying skills. =) Oddly enough the video also makes me think about how many times a day you have to do dishes XD. Basically one of the main, lazy reasons I avoid making food throughout the week is just to avoid doing dishes. Especially the blender which I find can be a bit unwieldy/dangerous in my clumsy hands.
I definitely do a LOT of dishes. Lol. Comes with the job. ;) x
Your videos make me feel so calmed. Loved these types of videos.
Thanks so much Ashley!
Another great video..keep em coming!!!
Thanks so much Keyia! :) x
I'm excited to try these. It's really handy to be investing in a good blender. You really can do lots of awesome stuff with it.
I love your videos, they are meditating and enchanting
That's so lovely to hear!
Absolutely love to watch what you eat in a day videos.
“I’m a morning person” that explains A lot! How do you do it 😩
Some people are wired that way but I also believe you can learn to be more of a morning person with practice. :)
My husband and I are senior citizens and very much into healthy living. Your videos are pack full of good wholesome information and easy to follow recipes. We're saying YES to more videos! Thank you so much and enjoy your drone. ;-)
Thanks so much Connie! And I'm so happy you both love my videos. I'm sure there will be more drone footage in the future as well. ;) x
Omg everything looks amazing 😋I need to try the smoothie.. and I love ice cream but I need to stay away from it , but your frozen mango looks yummy 😋 thank you for your video gave me some ideas 👍🏼
Glad you got a few new ideas! :)
Downshiftology ...hi there! Everything you made DOES look amazing! That salad, tho 🥗 yum-my! Also, what sweetener did you use in the frozen yoghurt?
I use either honey or maple syrup.
Thank you for the variety of suggestion of what to do with zoodles. I have a spiralizer and was ready to get rid of it because I was unable to find good suggestions of what to do with them.
For making humus it’s better to boil chick peas by first soaking them, it is healthier and better tasting than the caned chick peas
Enjoying your videos so much. It shows how much effort you put into each video. Thank you!
Thanks so much!
Watching this i came to a conclusion that i really need a vitamix! Once again, amazing video and great recipies. I really like your channel :)
I might have to agree with that conclusion. ;) Thanks so much! x
Your videos are beautiful! Very well produced. Love the music! Very professional!
Love your channel! I would be so proud of myself if I ate all those veggies in one day! haha I will get there some day! ;) Thank you for the content and inspiration you provide!
You're welcome! :)
You are such an inspiration! Your videos always have something special!
Aww, thanks so much Marely! :) x
Downshiftology ... or more exactly: Live Life Beautifully. I loved the content here and would very much enjoy future "what I eat in a day" videos. Good job!
Thanks so much! And I'm sure I'll have more in the future. :)
Thanks for your videos. Very helpful and your so I nice person you care for people and want them too love healthy. I love my blender and want to learn more I wish there was a group gathering or some one to share with me different ideas in north Carolina. Thanks for helping and caring. Blessings.
I really love your recipes. They are modern and yet somehow traditionell and tasty without all that strange nonsense that is super difficult to find in any store.
Thanks so much! And yes, I'm all about the simple healthy recipes. Making matcha lattes is about as fancy as I get. ;) x
I'm so happy I found your channel! Thank you for sharing your best tips!
You are GOALS. I strive to be as independently productive and successful as you one day. :) Gorgeous video and ideas! I’ll have to try a few.
Aww, thanks so much Aya! I'm sure you will be! :) x
Thanking GOD for you hunni! Love your videos you are saving my Life! Keep it up please!
In one of your last videos you talked about how you never use plasic for food storage and how you love your BPA free glasslock containers. I was suprised when I saw you use those canned chickpeas. Did you really find a brand that uses BPA free cans? I have been looking everywhere but never found one.
While canning, the food is really hot and after that it sits in that can for weeks or even months.
Since the inside coating of most cans isn't BPA free, I've switched to using dried chickpeas.
No, I still do use some plastics, I'm just doing my best to reduce my consumption and avoid where possible. I'm definitely not perfect. :) But ironically, the can of chickpeas I used were BPA-free: amzn.to/2L1hr3K
Talena M have you looked for chickpeas in glass jars? They're popular in London
Tatiana Luján
I have ;)
Here in Germany they are available as well. Unfortunately the lid of the jars I found isn't BPA free, either.
But I learned that there are BPA free cans (thanks to Downshiftology), so I guess there are BPA free lids available as well. I just didn't find them. Probably the problem is that I usually shop at normal supermarkets.
But to be honest, I stopped looking a while ago, when I decided to use the dried ones. At first I was annoyed by the fact that I had to plan my meals ahead and had to soak the chickpeas over night. That seemed like a lot of work (at first).
I'm used to that now and it really isn't a big deal. And what I like about them is that they are cheaper than the ones in jars and they usually don't require that much packaging. So they help me to save money and avoid waste :)
I love your food!!!
