❤ seeing this comment from my other favorite vegan foodie on TH-cam 🎉 also you both are now both have one million followers, well-deserved and "- with confidence!"
You're not wrong there, Wil! (I knew you were a man of good taste!)
❤ your channel
Hey Nish! You missed out an important but a crazy tip - start growing your own greens! I know, this doesnt apply for everyone. But if you have been keeping a good inventory for long, you would know as to which veggies are your favourite and which are considerably pricey at your nearest groceries. You can always start small. Most leafy greens actually grow well in tiny pots that you could keep next to your kitchen window or at your patio/balcony. If you have the space - try growing onions, garlic, radishes, carrots & beets BUT eat more of their greens rather than just the tubers/roots. I even sneak in carrot leaves in salads and told people that it was parsley! I've sneaked green onions & green garlic into home-made vegan chocolate milk and trust me, no one ever found out!Furthermore, these plants eventually would start producing seeds which you could collect, store and use in the future. It does require a lot of hard work & patience but please trust me when I say that this tip goes a long way as it is a long term thing which I have definitely benefited. I am on intermittent fasting now eating 2 meals daily 6 days a week. All these tips that you have given in this video are truly a blessing! Stay cheerful as you always do! Lots of love to everyone at home!
Sprouting is excellent, nutritious, easy, and inexpensive.
This is an awesome tip. I dont have a lot of space, but I do grow my own herbs. Fresh herbs can get really expensive and If they are still stuck in the ground they won't go bad.
Another plus is that you cant forget to buy them!
carrot greens make a tasty pesto or dip
I agree!
@@spankcak3s In addition to growing fresh herbs: Store bought pottet fresh greens can often be separated into several plants and repotted individually, enhancing the plants's survival rate. Especially useful for basil and parsley. Also: Spread the plants around your home so if one catches a bug/illness, it doesn't contaminate the rest of your plants.
And propagate the living death out of any store bought plant. In particular lemon balm, mint, and basil are very easy to root and turn into loads of new plants. Lastly: Plant a few of the seeds when using store bought bell peppers, chili, or tomatoes. They all sprout readily, grow fast and give a good yield - also in the window sill. I find though, that I need organic parent plants for the seeds to sprout.
I often have a competition with myself to see how long I can go without doing grocery shopping 😄If you have a reasonable cooking ability, it's amazing how many delicious meals you can pull together when you think you have "no food" in the house
Sarah, I do the very same thing! If I can shop once a month I feel like I made an accomplishment!!
I do this as well. It keeps me interested in cooking when I am challenged to cook and eat what I have. It also helps me become a better cook.
Omg! Me too!
I'm an old lady, so I learned these things over time by trial and error, but you really nailed it. This is a wonderful video for people to get started on wasting less money and especially wasting less food, and yet having wonderful meals.
Two very important tips: 1, never shop hungry. 2, optimize the use of freezer produce! I would let so many heads of broccoli or cabbage go wilty or gross because I couldn't be bothered to chop them. The solution? Frozen veggies! Never go bad, no need to chop. I use frozen fruit for prepping overnight oats for breakfast. I never have to worry about wasting the fruit because it will last just about forever.
I mean I'd love to buy, process and freeze food, like a lot - but then I remember, I got some blocks of butter, a small ice cube tray thing and a single like...700g bag of frozen veggies in there. Oh and a really small container with frozen herbs. And now whenever I open it to get to the ice cubes, get a pack of butter, get some herbs or some veggies, I'm always afraid the second I open, everything is gonna fall out because it's already full with that little stuff in there.
It's also helpful to take into account the region of the world you live in. Many of your recipes use serrano peppers or other Mexican ingredients that are readily available in California, obviously because there's a large Mexican population there. Here in Ontario, Canada, not so much. There's a little local Mexican grocery store where I live but the items are insanely expensive, probably due to having to be imported (and Canadians love to price gouge, seriously, not sure what that's about.)
On the other hand, lentils are so plentiful here that they're really cheap (Canada is the world's leading producer and exporter of lentils.) Also, there's a large Indian/Muslim population in my city so there are several local shops that stock all the beans, lentils and spices necessary for many of your recipes.
TL;DR - It's all about where you live, shop local and see what is available for cheap in your area.
I didn't know that Canada was the world's leading producer and exporter of lentils - how cool! I was just thinking this morning that Canadians have such a great claim to fame with their maple syrup. 😋
Yup, the ethnic grocery tip is great if you live in a large city with a lot of resources, but they aren't typically available in a rural area. I would kill for an Asian market but the nearest one is over an hour away by car-- and that's one way. Same with the bulk stores. But the trade off is that I can garden more readily where I am, saving money on a lot of staple veggies that I'd normally pay a premium for.
I also live in Ontario! Our local "ethnic" store has a pretty good selection of Mexican / !Latin ingredients even though it's technically an "Asian" supermarket. And I always sub Cayanne or Thai chilis for serrano... Baby mouths beware 😂
On top of this, shopping in season helps too
I’m in Canada, yet very very far away from any area that can produce Maple Syrup so it is expensive to purchase.
I do find various peppers here but they are not of the same quality seen on cooking channels. I have to be realistic when recreating a TH-cam recipe because the flavour just isn’t there due to shopping times!
Great tips! I'd add this personal one: keep an updated list of what's inside your freezer on the door. This way you'll actually use up what you already bought and froze... plus you save energy by not having to open it to check what's inside.
Here's a tip from me: if you want to freeze leftover tomato paste or any other condiment that you typically use in small portions, dole out spoonfuls into an empty ice cube tray and put it in the freezer. Then you can remove one frozen spoonful whenever needed, while the rest stays in the ice cube tray for future use.
You can also use silicone muffin trays for a slightly bigger portion. Once frozen pop them out of the tray and keep in a zip lock bag. Handy for soup, left over sauces etc
Ice cubes are perfect for lemon juice. Adding the peel too of course. Easily defrosts while you cook.
You don't even need an ice cube tray! Spoon the tomato paste out onto wax paper, then carefully lay it in the freezer. This is good if you don't have enough room for an ice tray--the paper can bend.
I'm pretty financial savyv in general and don't tend to waste money, but groceries are definitely my kryptonite. Whether I'm hungry or not, I get so easily enticed by literally everything. This video is helpful, very good points made. Always check what you already have, make a plan, and of course vegan food is just generally cheap af.
I'm the same way! Going to the grocery store on an empty stomach is theee worse idea & tend to do it more often than not 😅
If you have a piece of fruit or a quick sandwich before you go to the store you can avoid impulse buying foods that are bad for you just because you’re hungry
@@DiscoChixify That doesn't work for me sadly. I don't impulse shop because I'm hungry, I impulse shop because I get curious or think I might need something down the road. I'll buy a bunch of random ingredients whether I'm hungry or not haha - I just get too excited!
@@mrsnulch Trader Joe's is my weakness when it comes to seasonal items. Like the new Cinnamon Bun Joe Joe's magically appeared in my cart 🤷🏼♀️🤣 Now I can't find them again, so I'm proud of my past impulse buy, haha!
@@snashley True, that's why it's sometimes good to shop hungry lol! There's nothing worse than not buying something, then later realizing you actually would have really used it! There's definitely a balance to be had here.
I would LOVE a video on food storage to prevent waste. (I don't fully understand why crispers work or how I should be using them!)
'You can make that happen with plants" Love it! Sounds like the title of another cookbook...
This video feels like an entire book's worth of information! Thank you Nisha, *always* love your recipes and feel so inspired after watching your content! ♥
I’m not vegan, but I love incorporating plant-based meals in my everyday diet, and your recipes are always so good! Some of my favorite recipes of yours are red lentil curry, bbq tempeh, and buffalo chickpea quesadillas.
Ummm go vegan
Yes please. Show us how to store leftovers optimally.
And fresh veggies and fruit themselfes. Makes quite a difference.
Yes i need this!! 🙏
Most important measure:
Fight for higher wages with your local trade union!
My best advice, if it's available to you, is to order your groceries online. It has helped me so much with budgetting. I just put the items into my online card and go back to it after checking what I already have and i can easily take them out again if i end up not needing them. Haven't been over-buying ever since and it's really handy to immediately see how much the total cost is.
This is expensive though. Also they never end up picking good quality produce.
@@plantbasedbri_ oh too bad you have had such bad experiences. in my country (EU) i always get good produce!
I love that too! You always have a running total of what you're spending and it's so easy to add or subtract items.
@@plantbasedbri_ How is it expensive? Most grocery stores won't charge any fees for online orders.
Downside with this is that you can't pick out your own fruit and veg..
Definitely interested in a proper food storage video! Thank you for all you do, you’ve changed my life and how I view food
Yes please! Love the tips from this video.
I got an instant pot (and your book) 2 years ago and have been using it sooo much. It is ideal for dried beans and all your recipes are amazing. Your soups are 😍😍😍
For those wondering, IP doesn't use a lot of energy and your beans get ready super quick. So in total, even with the high energy costs, I believe it is cheaper to bulk buy dry beans and use the IP than use canned beans.
ONE MORE TIP!
Eat before you grocery shop. If I am mildly hungry, I will subconsciously grab ready-to-eat items that are not on my list and those tend to be the more expensive and not always healthy items.
BONUS TIP
I also keep a list on my phone called "Price Check". It includes staples and how much (by weight) it was purchased and where. It's SO helpful to see how you can lose the money you saved on a few sale items when buying the rest full price, if you only shop at one store. It's not critical but if you are able, it's very rewarding and more fun than coupons. 😅
The price check is such a smart idea!! I always try to make a mental note but we all know how that goes… i’ll definitely be trying it out next time!
This video was super thorough! I would love a video on how to store food so they stay fresh longer!
Same!
Me 2!
Also me!
Check which foods emit ethylen and which are sensitive to it. Store them in different parts of your fridge or pantry. Ethylen is a natural gas that can speed up some foods ripening.
I have made that cabbage sauce + roasted cabbage steaks at 7:26, and I too was blown away! So good and so cheap!
I make a batch and freeze half of them. It makes it easier when cooking beans from scratch.
These are some great reminders - thanks! One tip I would add is to be realistic about what you and your family actually enjoy eating. I used to fill my cart with "aspirational" items that nobody was really excited about, and then when it came time to make myself a lunch, I would feel obligated to eat them, but I wouldn't really want to. For example, nobody at my house likes quinoa, so I simply don't buy it anymore!
I started going to my local Indian and Korean grocery store after watching one of your other videos, and it's my favorite way to save money on rice, lentils, soy sauce, seaweed, spices, and more. Also love the upcycle tip about herbs!
One thing to consider with those membership programs: they are a major source of data on you being sold off to the highest bidder. Grocery stores don't operate on huge margins, so if they're not making their money on you, they're making their money by selling you on the data market.
This is not to say don't join those membership programs, just be aware that it's not *just* a free discount. I leave your priorities vis a vis cost saving vs maintaining personal privacy up to you, some people don't see data as an issue and some people don't have the financial stability to look at a discount program and say "no thanks."
I never realized you could check off items on your website's recipes 😅 So handy!
And yes, I'd love to see a video about how to keep fresh vegetables longer.
Meal planning with what I already have in my fridge and pantry has helped save so much money! I like that your recipes often include similar ingredients too. I go to your site at least once a week for meal planning!
A tip to avoid sweet impulse buys: before going to the grocery store, eat two oreo cookies or whatever you think tastes sickly sweet. Then at the grocery store when you walk by the sweet snacks aisle you will remember the overly sugary taste of the cookies and that will turn you off, specially if you take a look at the cookies for sale.
It works for me at least.
If I ate a couple oreos I would probably fall asleep on the couch and not end up going out at all 😆
Eating anything before the grocery definitely helps out!
An apple with peanut butter will help you curb cravings for baked goods. Eating an avocado with a bit of tajin chili powder helps me curb cravings for salty or fatty foods.
eat a good meal before buying groceries
That is very clever. Thanks for sharing this
If you don’t have an InstaPot a regular crock pot will also cook your beans. It does take longer but you can set it to cook overnight or while you’re at work.
Pls share your tips on how to store produce.
This is satisfying to watch, because I figured out most of the tips already over time (yet don't always follow them).
Yay for legumes which have been a little demonized by the nutrition health whatever industry! I am from Puerto Rico and we eat A LOT of beans. It's part of our standard diet! So YAY! Also, you're amazing, and funny, and greatttt and I need you in my life because all this food stuff is overwhelming to me.😵💫 😂
omg right ! i’ve been eating a ton of beans and i LOVE it because there’s so much variety. i recently even started cooking white beans and pinto beans. everyone freaks about carbs so they avoid beans but beans will forever be my favorite !
Cool tips - and one that I have never thought of - taking a pic of the cupboard/fridge to see what's in them when at the store - that's really smart. Thanks for sharing and I am looking forward to your next video... 👍😄
This video is amazing! I especially found your suggestions for repurposing leftovers SO helpful!!!!
Very nice job Nisha. I learned this myself as a young wife and you just presented it to everyone. This generation is so blessed to have teachers like you ❤
This was pure gold, thanks Nisha!!
That was truly incredible and helpful!! Thank you so much, Nisha!!
Thank you so much for sharing all these tips!❤
Nisha, I just noticed your 1mln milestone! Hooray!🎉🎉🎉 this video is pure gold (as usual!) and I would really appreciate a video about storing and conserve food, thanks! 😊
What a treasure trove of tips. Thank you! Would love to know more about preventing food waste.
Definitely interested in a video about how to properly store produce! And how to know what to store separately 🧡
that no buy week is smart. i'm solo so ALWAYS overspend on groceries bc i enjoy cooking and like trying new things. then 6 months later i find black squid ink next to 4 different types of paprika
😆
Had dealt with 2 power outages last month I've really changed my way of shopping especially frozen items. And eat what you have is so good for saving money. Love your videos!
Got so many great ideas. Thank you for this video! I always use a silicon cupcake pan to freeze soups, beans, rice,etc. Once frozen I move them to a freezer bag and have single servings to pull out. Works wonders for actually eating my leftovers.
Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with us ♥️ I’m a much healthier happier person ever since I found your channel. Healthy eating used to intimidate me, but you made it achievable and it changed my life. Thank you so much 🙏
This was a superb video. I'm pretty tight on money lately for this exact same reason and I've been doing the first half of the video, but I'm going to start applying the second half. Unfortunately where I live, buying in bulk is more expensive than buying packaged and there's a monopoly in terms of supermarkets, only 2 very popular ones and 2 smaller ones. One thing I like to do is check online which ingredients are cheaper in which supermarkets and get them from there. I'm extremely jealous you have so many options, it's almost overwhelming!
I enjoy your videos, usually, but this one was my favorite. Just missed your parents, they are always adorable.
terrific video!!!! thanks so much =) & YES, please. Would really appreciate a video by you - on storing food!
Thanks for the tips. I would love to see a more detailed video on how to keep produce in refrigerator longer without spoiling.
I just love you!!! Your videos are so packed with useful information no matter what the subject is.
So much good information and your video was so uplifting. I would love more produce storing tips, like celery cabbage and mushrooms.
Another great video Nisha!!! Love all of these ideas!!!!
This was awesome and fun to watch, thanks Nisha!! ❤😊
I have had your recipes on repeat for the past few years! Congrats on the 1 million
More food storage tips. BTW, I started using an herb keeper (basically a tall vase) for keeping herbs fresh in the fridge. If you have the space, it really will help to extend the life of herbs by a week or two. Highly recommended.
Another excellent video!! Thanks for the re-inspiration!
Your videos are getting better and better every time! Thank you :)
Amazing video! One tip for hard bread: cut in and put in a pan with a little bit of water, with the lid on. The bread will rehydrate and taste very good again :) I think you can also put water on it and toss it in the oven, if it's already on!
Love from Portugal (and Italy!)
I really enjoyed this vid, so many great tips. TY NIsha!
I would recommend this video to absolutely EVERYONE if you didn't miss these two important points: growing your own veg/herbs, and using frozen and/or canned vegetables instead of fresh ones. Game changer for people without much money to spend. I would love an updated version - the format is so beautiful!!!
I love the eat first bin! So many great tips!
I love your channel!! So many good ideas and recipes!!
Love the detailed video and agree with all mentioned, love your cookbook and I always cook beans in my instant pot as well, tried many of your dishes and even my non-vegan husband approved! 💚💚💚 like you mentioned it’s all about the flavouring and prepping the veggies is a must 💯
yesss, a video about storing food would be so helpful! Thank you for sharing these tips :)
So many great tips! Thanks for sharing Nisha.
Genius, and seriously practical and doable advice! 🤩
This video is GOLD, thanks Nisha! ❤🌱
Best video ever to keep $ in mind. I have your instant pot cookbook and LOVE it. Had the sweet potato dal last week. Thank you for keeping us inspired, under budget, and full! ;)
That’s so thoughtful of you Charlene. Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Hey Nisha, Love these ideas! Especially the "eat me first" bin and raiding your pantry and fridge to cook a meal when you think you have nothing to cook with. I've been cooking this way for years and it has produced some of my most unexpected and tasty dishes. You've done a great job of explaining each strategy in a simple way, and the video quality, editing, and content are awesome. I'm not a vegan by far, but I've enjoyed your videos over the years - your recipes are yummy and easy to substitute with non-vegan products as needed. Thank you!
Really good tips overall and I am so excited to try some of the recipes featured. One thing I do differently, first I go straight to the "manager's discount" or markdown bins and buy things from there - but only healthy things that I normally would buy, and no treats or junk. Also paying attention to the "loss leaders" - those items marked down on special that week. As grocery stores tend to buy some things on a regular basis, but with supply chain issues sometimes one order will be delayed and then it will come in practically on top of the next one, they don't have enough space so often reduce the price. I have saved so, so much money doing these things, and prices are too high for me to just come in and only buy what was already on a list. Then I go home and plan my meals on what I have on hand and what needs eaten soon. I really don't have much food waste. But I am very disciplined and organized, I don't end up spending more than I budgeted. Money is too tight.
FYI, you can freeze pasta. Just be sure it's al dente before freezing, defrost in fridge and warm in microwave.
I always cook 2lbs of dried beans at a time in the Instant Pot and FREEZE them in 1 can servings - Easy and saves OODLES of $$$ for this family of 4.
I needed this list years ago! Lol Had to watch several other videos to understand food perseveration. Great job.
I have starred this one, I want to come back and watch 1-2 more times; lots of great info! Thanks
Fabulous video! Thanks for the great ideas! 😊
And YES to a video on food storage tips👏👏👏
This was so insightful! Thank you! I would love to know about more in depth tips about proper food storage
Yes, I would love a video about produce storage!
Wow, this was SO helpful! Thank you for sharing! 🤗💖💖💖
Congratulations on 1 million followers!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for this really interesting video. I knew some of the tips but still discovered new ones or you brought some back to my attention again 😊
Great video format, very smart way to show us different recipes…. Great..!!!
This video had so much content definitely saved this one as will need to watch a few times for sure! Thank you ❤
amazing, amazing, amazing!!! forever in awe of how information-packed yet engaging your videos are!
I just started watching your videos… I am hooked! Great content, love your sense of (dry) humor!❤😂❤
Great video full of good advices! Some of them I already incorporated in my life and some I will start to incorporate! Thx N! :D
I love the idea of knowing what you are making first before you buy. This week I am making... celery stew and aloo ghobi.
Oh Yess please! I would LOVE a whole Storage Video! ❤
What a great video Nisha. Now I feel proud that when I discovered I didn’t have all the ingredients to make a cake for a friend coming around for a cuppa, I subbed and changed rather than go to the supermarket.
I have your cookbook and I use it every week😁 thank you and congratulations on hitting 1 million followers ❤
Great video! So helpful. I’d like to add that you can save seeds and easily regrow certain fruit, veg, and herbs from the grocery store. I always regrow green onions and get a few bunches for the price of one 😊
What a great, informative and helpful video! Soooo many great ideas!!! Thank you!!
What a great video. You make it look so easy and you gave me some good ideas too. Thnk-you for making this video! Appreciate it more than you k ow. 💖
This was great. I typically start with tip 2 for inspiration on tip 1.
Super video! I was already doing a lot of these so I feel even more motivated to continue! And yes, I did notice savings since I switched to plant based food only - despite the high inflation times we are living in.
Veggie scraps can also be used for soups. In my opinion, you can make a mashed soup out of almost any veggies. If you just season it the right way, it’ll be delicious. I live alone and often have much more veggies than I can eat before they go bad (cabbages are huge, spinach is often sold in massive bags, etc) so making a soup of whatever veggie leftovers I have has become my favorite way of using them up.
I just ordered your book. So excited
so helpful, love this video nisha! thank you!
This was so helpful!! Loved the section on food waste and tips for preserving food!
Hi, regardless of where you live, these basic step’s always help… I live in The Netherlands and find your advice so helpful. Keep up the good work! Keith
Excellent ideas and hints . Love these dishes.
