I’ll be getting my book this weekend, can’t wait , Kiki’s videos change my life , she’s the one that introduced me to the this lifestyle, forever grateful for what she has done and still doing.
I am an expat in Costa Rica and just ordered the book on Kindle. I have followed Kiki for a long time and started my journey 5 years ago to reverse psoriatic arthritis. All of you - Chef AJ, Kiki, High carb Hannah, Dr. McDouglall, etc have been a huge help!. My husband is not WFPB and counts calories, but he's coming around lol. I can't wait to use some of the recipes.
Great interview!!! Congrats Kiki on your book!! Love watching Kiki's stuff! Thanks chef AJ for interviewing all kinds of people with all kinds of info ❤
Kiki’s the one who introduced this all to me and it’s CRAZY to me how much sense it makes and it has changed my life. I always was SO CONFUSED why potatoes were bad? God made them! lol. It never felt right how carbs were the culprit! Can’t wait to get your book Kiki! Thanks for all you do!
Please more raw recipes and inspiration! Keep in mind that many don’t have nor want dehydrator; recipes need to be easy-peasy so fans can always eat raw like you! Hugs! I’m buying your book now. God bless you and your family
I never thought about just eating raw veggies and fruits in the morning and then the cook meal at night that’s actually an amazing balance! I won’t lie though I still love my cereal with almond milk as a snack at night but I eat a lot of fruits and veggies throughout the day in the evening, and I feel absolutely full! I cannot believe that people got upset about saying it’s ridiculous to weigh Your fruits and veggies and portions. If you’re eating properly, you’ll feel full and you may not even need to eat an entire portion, but as I said, in that video, there’s no way in hell I’m weighing in on my tomatoes and cucumbers and things of that nature because fruits and veggies are where it’s at! My children do eat meat and it’s something I can’t pull them from, but I wish I could! But I will say that they do have a very well balanced diet of a lot of fruits and veggies in them as well but me, I’ll leave the meat to everyone else and stick with y’all with the fruits and veggies And I don’t weigh my food either. I think it’s ridiculous when you’re eating very healthy, fruits and vegetables, there’s no reason to ever measure out. 14:18
Book is arriving today!! I plan on moving the dial for my husband and Son towards WFPB, and this book seems like a great tool with a meal plan. It's so hard to watch them eat meat and dairy...ugh. I am high raw and really love it
Loved this interview!! Oop- I was in Loveland last week and didn't think to check out the Barnes & Noble there to grab a signed copy. Also, we homeschool our two VERY social kids. It's our first year doing it, but we are all loving it so much! They go to an awesome learning center/school twice a week where they do science, history, and electives (yoga, drama, strategic games, sports), so they have a ton of friends there as well as our neighbor friends and their sports teams. There are SO many options for weekly homeschool meet-ups (park groups, nature groups, art groups, etc), that we started feeling overwhelmed and had to cut back. If anything, I've learned that homeschool kids have more opportunities to socialize than kids who spend the full school year in the same class with the same kids all day. It has been given us freedom to travel and explore topics that they are curious about without feeling tied down or like we're squeezing everything in after school. :)
It's funny that both Dr McDougall and Dr Fuhrman both say they don't agree with weighing or measuring food, yet they both have wonderful eating plans on Bright Line Eating where everything is weighed/measured. Bright Line Eating is for people who have eating disorders or for people who can't control how much they eat. It is a life saver for lots of people who cannot discipline themselves with a 50/50 plate, etc. Love Chef AJ, Kiki and all the plant-based champions out there helping people regain their health & vitality!!
Losing weight with both hypothyroidism and menopause!! When we had kids at home we kept the junk out of the house, so when we went out the kids could get a treat, over time they lost their taste for most junk. We also have a yonana machine to make on plan cold treats, that really helped too!!🍊🥔
I like the balance of high raw during the day & cooked & raw meals in the evening to share with the family.much easier to maintain & incorporate into family living.more family & kid friendly.
Love watching your videos KiKi. And I have your book. The one thing I've been really disappointed about is the cheese sauce. I've tried it many times it just taste like potato soup. Still think you're amazing.
Keeping a clean environment in the home is so important. Similar to potato chips, I have that with nuts. Certain nuts. If they are around, it is difficult for me to not stop eating them in HUGE amounts! On a separate note, regarding the topic of what you use on your face, hopefully you both use facial sunscreen to preserve your beautiful skin!
I would love it if Kiki wrote a “high raw” cookbook 2 meals raw, one meal cooked meal at night - and would love to see easy, lazy meals. I love to prepare very simple meals. Great name - Lazy High Raw cookbook. Please dear Kiki - when you can, I would definitely buy your book.
Dr McDougall’s work laid the premise for many of theses TH-camrs reiterating the diet including Kiki. Who created the 50/50 plate concept? The one Niki promotes? Dr McDougall
Kiki gets it. All the tips that she gives are 100% helpful. I am Taking it slow with becoming WFPB vegan. If I do the overhaul all at once, I will get overwhelmed and fail.
Chef AJ and Kiki-thank you! Im on a lifestyle medicine program in which you, Dr Gregor, Dr McDougall, etc. all come HIGHLY recommended 😊 But im really having a struggle of not tracking my calories, macros, etc. The Dr who's part of the program here wants me to stop doing this, and just EAT. Literally FILL UP on high fiber veggies, whole grains, fruits and such. Does this sound similar to all the work that you've done? Is that basically what calorie density is?
OMG is this delicious. Love ❤ it . Making another batch of the cheese sauce. So good. I did sub cashews for PB2 cashew powder. So delicious Also I am ordering your book ❤
I really wish so many vegan influencers and doctors wouldn't discount weighing and measuring. I've heard it elsewhere when trying to work with a vegan doctor. For true food addicts it is a life saver and the thing that will help them actually stick to a vegan diet. As someone who's down nearly 60 pounds on a whole food vegan diet and finally the vegan I always tried to be I'm so grateful for weighing and measuring. I have no cravings and couldn't be happier! Other than that I love hearing the conversation between two of my fav vegan influencers!
Is there a way to make your sauces/dressings without nuts? I have nut allergies and food sensitivities. Even yeast, mushrooms and chickpeas are a problem. Thanks!
Love both of your podcasts very much. I just ordered your book Kiki I would like to know how long did your plateau last? I’ve been struggling but change my Thyroid from armour to Synthroid. I don’t know if that’s having an effect..
Kiki, congratulations on your book!! You hear about adding protein to all your meals. How do you get protein on a plant based meals? PS. I love your dress! Where is this from?
Chef AJ I got over my cravings and need for sweets by drinking Dr. BOBBIE PRICE Detox Teas for 14 days. It gets rid of Parisites and Candida. Now I do Dr. Brooke Goldner Smoothie Shred😊
** It's interesting how we are all gravitating towards the same types of resources. So many wonderful TH-camrs are putting out great content to support our health journeys. I've never heard of that detox tea. I'll have to check it out. Thank you for mentioning it. I tried the Goldner protocol, but the 1/4 cup flaxseed was too much for me to start with. I should've started with 1 Tbsp and worked my way up.
True sourdough bread doesn’t have gluten. I usually don’t eat bread but there are a few brands at the supermarket that are pretty good. Simple Kneads isn’t bad. Out of North Carolina.
Back in 1996, when I became lacto-ovo-vegetarian, I stopped cooking meat and fish and that was that, my family was plunged into vegetarianism. Then, in 2015, when I became whole foods plant-based, I don't cook animal food recipes for anyone. Why cook foods that can cause disease for those you love ?
I just checked out the oils that Kiki recommended. I just read the list of ingredients in the one that is $52 for one ounce, the ISUN Sapphire Facial Oil Moisturizer and I cannot believe that this really costly oil has as the first ingredients oils that are very low cost ! Coconut oil is not even recommended for the face of many women because it can cause acne. Grape seed oil is really a low grade oil. Sunflower seed oil is a very low cost oil as well and olive oil also. I am not against these oils, it's just that they are not costly or high end and so the price of this oil cannot be justified with this ingredient list. I have have found real nice facial oils for a fraction of the price with higher quality ingredients ! The oil they sell that's $103 doesn't seem to have the ingredients listed but I assume that it is as much of a rip off as this other one, since it is ISUN as well. I also noticed that the ingredient list didn't say if the ingredients were organic.
WOW - just watched Kiki on the PCRM channel, and now she's on Chef AJ. Yay Kiki!! We love you.
She is one of the most genuine out there. Book just arrived.
I vote for Kiki having a monthly spot on AJ’s show!! Thanks - great video! 😊
I’ll be getting my book this weekend, can’t wait , Kiki’s videos change my life , she’s the one that introduced me to the this lifestyle, forever grateful for what she has done and still doing.
Chef AJ & Plantiful Kiki are both so down to earth. I always enjoy watching both of them.
I am an expat in Costa Rica and just ordered the book on Kindle. I have followed Kiki for a long time and started my journey 5 years ago to reverse psoriatic arthritis. All of you - Chef AJ, Kiki, High carb Hannah, Dr. McDouglall, etc have been a huge help!. My husband is not WFPB and counts calories, but he's coming around lol. I can't wait to use some of the recipes.
You immigrated .what's an expat !!
Dr. McDougall saved my life. Counting calories was so daunting to me. Just eating the right food and not worrying about it is amazing!

Kiki is one of my favorite. She has the kindest soul🌻🌻
Great interview!!! Congrats Kiki on your book!!
Love watching Kiki's stuff!
Thanks chef AJ for interviewing all kinds of people with all kinds of info ❤
Kiki, you are so cute when you give your little laugh. I have so enjoyed following your journey for a few years now. You’ve taught me a lot.
Kiki’s the one who introduced this all to me and it’s CRAZY to me how much sense it makes and it has changed my life. I always was SO CONFUSED why potatoes were bad? God made them! lol. It never felt right how carbs were the culprit! Can’t wait to get your book Kiki! Thanks for all you do!
I love watching Kiki and AJ . They have such a beautiful energy between them. And I have just ordered the new book.
Kiki is great and I’m so excited to get her book - love a cookbook that is spiral bound!
So happy for Kiki! I was part of the initial 21 subscribers.:)
Please more raw recipes and inspiration! Keep in mind that many don’t have nor want dehydrator; recipes need to be easy-peasy so fans can always eat raw like you! Hugs! I’m buying your book now. God bless you and your family
If you have an oven, don’t feel like you can’t dehydrate! It’s easy. Just google it.
Yayyyy!!! If Kiki does a raw cookbook it will be the best ever!!!!!
Totally agree!

Just don't bring meat home & then it won't be in their mouths. U control the environment, not them.
Great! Congrats KIKI!!!👏👏👏👏👍👍🎉🎉
penny here. Kiki, you are awesome. Keep up the good work.
Kiki the first time I knew of you was on TH-cam, I love watching you on TH-cam. Great job.
Kiki is my favorite. She inspired me to start my own journey.
Book is arriving today!! I plan on moving the dial for my husband and Son towards WFPB, and this book seems like a great tool with a meal plan.
It's so hard to watch them eat meat and dairy...ugh. I am high raw and really love it
My husband cant go one meal without meat. Its frustrating.
The two of you ! ❤️❤️ I am not even vegan….yet….but you two are the best!
Congratulations Kiki!!! 💗
Great interview. Thank you. Love how insightful, practical, and helpful Kiki's tips are. Cheers.
this Q&A is so real and relatable!! thank you!
Love Kiki so much!! Her recipes are sooo good!!

Great interview - two lovely friendly ladies
She should be so proud of herself! This has been a year for her. How is her green celery juice going? Is it helping?
That looks so amazing. I can’t wait to try it. I’m so glad to see your recipes on TH-cam.
Thank you for this amazing interview!
I love Kiki! Smart sweet woman. Thanks chef AJ❤
Congratulations on your book Kiki! I have made your broccoli soup n love it. Many blessings! Great video AJ! 💕✨
Ordered the new cook book! Thank you for your interview with Kiki. ❤❤❤
I love how open genuine and caring that you are. Thank you for sharing.🌹🥰❤️

How wonderful to hear about the success of the book - hope it stays that way :D such a nice time hanging out :) thank you so much
Losing weight with both hypothyroidism and menopause!!
When we had kids at home we kept the junk out of the house, so when we went out the kids could get a treat, over time they lost their taste for most junk. We also have a yonana machine to make on plan cold treats, that really helped too!!🍊🥔
Congrats on the new book!
I just ordered your book. Thank you
Susan
I like the balance of high raw during the day & cooked & raw meals in the evening to share with the family.much easier to maintain & incorporate into family living.more family & kid friendly.
Just made the cheese sauce...I think it's my new favorite thing!😊
Congratulations Kiki! I preordered your book at Amazon 🇩🇪
Thank you both :) very inspirational. Also … attainable ! This feels like something that is possible to do ❤
Love to see Kiki she’s so sweet and beautiful 🌹
Love you, Kiki!
I know it’s cliché but I enjoyed the girling out on beauty products section 😊
Solidify those DAILY habits - yes, Kiki, that is so true. Food prep, consistency and having those go-to SAD food replacements will get you there.
I follow! Chef AJ, Esselstyns, healthy emmy, Kiki, physician community, Well your world …..😮 I am doing great with all the great advise….thank you all
Do you do carbs?
Wonderful interview! Love Plantiful Kiki and Chef AJ!! Both of you are inspiring and beautiful and awesome!!! Thanks!!!
Thanks so much!
Wow Chef Aj and Kiki..it couldn't get better than this..2 Stars..great video..Thank You for all you do ladies..❤❤🎉🎉😊😊
Just bought my book!
Just ordered kiki's updated book.
I would like to hear Chef AJ talk with Leanne Ratcliffe (Freelee the banana girl) :)
Love watching your videos KiKi. And I have your book. The one thing I've been really disappointed about is the cheese sauce. I've tried it many times it just taste like potato soup. Still think you're amazing.

Thank you so much Miss Kiki. I will do the same raw in the morning and eat a meal in the evening Thank you both you are amazing
Now u got competition Chef!
But Chef, u are still the best & the #1
Love You Kiki ❤️🙌🏻❤️
❤❤❤Ladies, thank you for posting this marvelous video. Its keeping me on track with my goals and eating this way❤
I would love it if Kiki wrote a “high raw” cookbook 2 meals raw, one meal cooked meal at night - and would love to see easy, lazy meals. I love to prepare very simple meals. Great name - Lazy High Raw cookbook. Please dear Kiki - when you can, I would definitely buy your book.
I love your plentiful lean cook book
Dr McDougall’s work laid the premise for many of theses TH-camrs reiterating the diet including Kiki.
Who created the 50/50 plate concept? The one Niki promotes? Dr McDougall
I always thought he did but so many use it so not sure.
Maybe. Not sure if he named it 50/50 to be fair. It’s a while since I read it. Kiki has made it fun and easy! Oh and pretty!
Yes, so? It's great that they promote plant based lifestyle. She gives respect to him and the other doctors
Chef AJ thank you 😉❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kiki gets it. All the tips that she gives are 100% helpful. I am Taking it slow with becoming WFPB vegan. If I do the overhaul all at once, I will get overwhelmed and fail.
Chef AJ and Kiki-thank you!

Does this sound similar to all the work that you've done? Is that basically what calorie density is?
Love Kiki!!!
I just bought her book. When I watch her videos, it scares me the size of her bowls and plates. I am hoping this works for me...
OMG is this delicious. Love ❤ it . Making another batch of the cheese sauce. So good. I did sub cashews for PB2 cashew powder. So delicious
Also I am ordering your book ❤
When you have family that refuses to eat plant based, make a few dishes, but don't tell them it's plant based. This will help to convince them
I really wish so many vegan influencers and doctors wouldn't discount weighing and measuring. I've heard it elsewhere when trying to work with a vegan doctor.

Other than that I love hearing the conversation between two of my fav vegan influencers!
Yes! Thank you! How did you find/design a vegan food plan?
Is there a way to make your sauces/dressings without nuts? I have nut allergies and food sensitivities. Even yeast, mushrooms and chickpeas are a problem. Thanks!
Can you try chia or hemp seeds?
Me too Re yeast mushrooms most beans…
There’s a new channel coming called Plants 96 and the people behind it avoid many of those allergens.
She almost always has a nut-free note. :)
Is it acceptable to use sweetners like Stevia and Monk Fruit?
I ordered the book! I would love to try raw meals because I have thyroid issues like Kik!
Again what is the name of that serum by isun and oil thanks Janet
Love both of your podcasts very much. I just ordered your book Kiki I would like to know how long did your plateau last? I’ve been struggling but change my Thyroid from armour to Synthroid. I don’t know if that’s having an effect..
Kiki, congratulations on your book!! You hear about adding protein to all your meals. How do you get protein on a plant based meals? PS. I love your dress! Where is this from?
Battling hives will it help plant based eating
Love acupuncture
Love Kiki
Much easier to lactate with WFPB than keto. Human milk is very high in carbs.
Wonderful show wondering if Kiki has just the casserole by itself for the meal or salad with it? Love you all xoxoxox
She says in the book, you should still add a salad or veggies on the side!
Does it matter if you are in your seventies, and want to lose a little??
❤Kiki
“If this cook8mg thing doesn’t work out” 😂😂😂😂😂
Does Kiki’s book explain calorie density?
Yes it does! I own it. 😊
Do you have experience helping people with roscea? It is a struggle.
Chef AJ I got over my cravings and need for sweets by drinking Dr. BOBBIE PRICE Detox Teas for 14 days. It gets rid of Parisites and Candida. Now I do Dr. Brooke Goldner Smoothie Shred😊
** It's interesting how we are all gravitating towards the same types of resources. So many wonderful TH-camrs are putting out great content to support our health journeys.

Lol! Minute 2-3. I eat a lot more volume than my family. I eat fast too. BMI 23.4.
Where's the cheesy broccoli rice casserole recipe? Thanks.
Please check the show notes
If I wanted to follow this diet and I am gluten intolerant, what kind of bread do you suggest to eat?
True sourdough bread doesn’t have gluten. I usually don’t eat bread but there are a few brands at the supermarket that are pretty good. Simple Kneads isn’t bad. Out of North Carolina.
I just received Kiki’s book! It’s gorgeous. I look forward to reading it. (🤔Hm...date night with hubby or start reading her book?)
When it is raw food, it is a *recipe* book, not a *cook* book, because there is no cooking. Lol
Ordered tofu chow mein in white sauce & it was swimming in chicken broth, it was disgusting, threw it away, never went back!
Still counting and weighing and want to be free and still loose weight. What was the video Kiki mentioned? By a Jeff?
Back in 1996, when I became lacto-ovo-vegetarian, I stopped cooking meat and fish and that was that, my family was plunged into vegetarianism. Then, in 2015, when I became whole foods plant-based, I don't cook animal food recipes for anyone. Why cook foods that can cause disease for those you love ?
I wouldn’t want to lose weight too fast - flabby skin and lightheartedness and dizziness. slow is the way to go.
I just checked out the oils that Kiki recommended. I just read the list of ingredients in the one that is $52 for one ounce, the ISUN Sapphire Facial Oil Moisturizer and I cannot believe that this really costly oil has as the first ingredients oils that are very low cost !
