I appreciate that you included some realistic alternatives. it's aesthetically nice to present vegan meals as "instaready" but most people don't eat like that and need easy realistic ideas. and that's ok to have canned if ya can't make them dry. etc so well done. also it's great to hear Baby J's commentary lol
Probably my favorite video! I loved seeing you just pick up the phone and share how you think about meals, grocery shopping, and a real weeknight dinner with kids! Absolutely loved this. Gave me so many ideas for me and my daughter!
I've been doing the plant-based diet for a long time. Lovin' how authentic, practical & down to earth your channel is. Sending all the plant-based newbies to you channel. Well done!!'
Dr Greger recently noted that having bananas in your smoothie lowers the amount of good nutrients you absorb from the other ingredients and recommends frozen mango instead. He said bananas solo are fine.
Hi, Jenna. I am a new subscriber. I love your videos. I have lost about 12 lb by increasing my intake of organic produce, nuts and on me healthy nutritional foods. I also increased my activity. On the last 2 months, I think I have lost 7 lbs. I feel good about that. Looking at your videos in cooking recipes from your cookbook will help me further with my weight loss. 😊 Happy day to you and your daughter.
Thank you - that was a great video, and it’s lovely to see your little one. All my grandkids are grown up now and I miss them cos I don’t get out these days. I discovered ages ago that I sometimes need a quick small portion of brown rice or quinoa or millet, so I cook up a whole 500g bag on a good day, then cool quickly on a large flat tray. Put a tablespoon into tiny Tupperware pots (about 15-20) and freeze quickly. Then when I have a bad day, I’ve got instant starch, which I can use when I want some beans and rice, or whatever. I also make a whole batch of chickpeas in a large slow cooker, soaked overnight, and cooked with fresh water. In the pot, I add Tbspn olive oil and a square of kombu. When the beans are really cooked and creamy, I cool and make up single or 2 portion pots to freeze. Then when I have a bad day, I can defrost a single portion of chickpeas for salad or soup etc. the next week, I cook up a whole pot of red kidney beans and do the same. The next week, it’s black eyed peas, the next week it’s butter beans, etc. I have 2 whole drawers in my freezer with an assortment of different beans and 1 drawer of different flavoured rice, quinoa etc. This way, I get all the goodness of home cooked food, cheaper food because I’m not buying tins, and it’s as instant as opening a tin or a pouch of precooked rice. Plus never any leftovers. Also I don’t like much salt so my food is tasty without being too salty. I always include the lovely tasty rich cooking liquor with the beans. I can then rustle up a quick soup, salad, curry or stew with the frozen beans without thinking that I wish I’d soaked some the day before! Just thought I’d leave some ideas for anyone else who loves Wholefoods, but feels it’s time consuming every day. Bless you ❤
OMG Baby J has such an amazingn personality!! I really enjoyed having her in the video, it made it very very enjoyable!!!! Blessings from my channel to yours!! Thanks for sharing!!!
I just started my plant based journey. I’m struggling to find good dishes that I could make daily. I’m also gluten free which makes it more challenging to find delicious meals. Getting the proper amount of protein daily has been hard but I’m not giving up. I wished there were a vegan community that I could join for support on my journey.
Hi, great video! Have to say that a reason to buy organic bananas is to keep all those toxic sprays and powders out of the soil, to keep the soil and the things that live in it, and the people who work in the fields, alive and healthy.
I am not vegan but because of you, I have been cooking a lot of vegan dishes. I came across your channel during covid and I love your recipes. My favorite is sweet potato and black eye beans curry as well as your black bean beet patties..delish. Thanks for inspiring me to cook more healthy dishes. Much appreciated.😊
You inspire me! I don’t think I could ever be a mom, but you’re a great one, and a beautiful person inside and out. You were one of the first vegan content creators I found when transitioning from vegetarian to vegan years ago and have been a huge help. Thank you for everything you do!
I’m not a frequent commenter lol but i really enjoyed this video, one of my favs from you. I enjoy wholesome meals and cooking so this was so nice to watch and the meals look really good!
Even though I'm not Vegan, You inspire me to Eat More plant based. I start my shopping in the produce aisle, Then go from there. Keep Doing What You Do!
Omg I love this! I am new on my plant based journey and was struggling to find good, home style/cozy meals that I will actually eat and enjoy. Subscribed ☺️
This inspired me to eat better! Ive been vegan 8 years and im 7 months pregnant and still dealing with food aversions at times but after watching this im totally craving all the fruit, veg, grains, and beans that ive been slacking on.
Ya'll are too cute! And the food looked amazing per usual! I will be making that chili and cornbread sometime soon. Btw I made your Caesar salad last week and shared with family. Everyone loved it! I'm curious, what kind of frozen pizza do you buy? lol Thank you for the content
hello , nice , very nice , that advocado/mushroom sammie looks sooooo delish😋😋😋😋and easy , i will make that . everything looks fantastic , thank you for sharing🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰.................
Can beans saves me a lot of time when I am short on time. I always rinse can foods if I can to reduce the sodium. Even the can with no salt. We finally have a Costco’s here, I’ll definitely have to go check out the produce if it’s cheaper. 👍🏽Chili looks yummy 😋
I just became a cold turkey vegan last week, loving it, I don't usually eat meat so the transition was easy-ish for me. My issue is sugar, sugar is vegan and it's my drug of choice (sad, sad,, sad) I will work on that a little more as I get acclimated to being vegan. Just wanted to chime in, I just discovered your channel, just subbed, I think you are awesome, really enjoy your content, this mama and her baby boy trying to do the way we eat just a little bit kinder and more nutritious. Thank you for creating this place for us to hang out.
This is such a good video. Chili is definitely a cold day type food and delicious especially with a corn product on the side be it cornbread or tortilla chips and rice is delicious with chili too. Flaxseeds also have omega 3, but they may not be as good as the liquid which would be more concentrated. It’s wonderful that you have your little one enjoying eating healthy even when she thinks it’s not good. The energy is great in this video.😊
Hi Sis! I've been vegan since 2005, then got a 2007 Prius i only refuel 1x every 11-13 months, around that time i began hiking with my ex and also began camping alone with my furbaby in Carpinteria State Beach California and a Lake near Duck Creek, Utah, then in 2013 i went full-time in a Class A RV with my furbaby, where ive been stationary since 2017, i truly love my sustainable lifestyle, glad to know someone began the same earth & animal loving lifestyle probably 20yrs younger than i began mine after 911 when i began to downsize to a minimalistic lifestyle for the sake of innocent lives on GAIA 🌎 🌍 🌏 ❤
I love what I eat in a day videos 😊 I’m currently transitioning my little ones to plant based would you be willing to do a day in the life/ a week or anything far as what your little one eats on a vegan lifestyle? Thank you ☺️
I appreciate you doing a realistic what I eat in a day video. I like making fancy recopies from time to time, but I need easy quick ones too for busy week days.
@@laurastephenson2516 I really meant this comment for the poster. She mentioned that she buys frozen wildblueberries from Costco that are not organic. Didnt mean to suggest you didnt know😀
I work at a library and had them purchase your book so I could check it out, well, I bought my own book and I want to thank you for sharing your vegan journey with us through your recipes. YUM!
I love the recipes and vids and I also love that you obscure baby Js face for her safety. It’s weird to me when parents don’t do that on such a public platform.
Hi jenne'....luv it!! so awesum that you share part of your life with us and cutest babyJ....I'm not vegan yet but eating healthier is the key for me. Your sooooo cute and real!!! C u next time...Stephan!!!!
I’m studying conservation biology in Colorado and my biological biodiversity professor told us to always buy organic bananas and coffee because since they are so massively produced-non organic farms tend to be very unethical to species diversity. In other words-non organic banana farms kill the most amount of species out of almost any farmed plant (bird populations in specific)
I appreciate that you included some realistic alternatives. it's aesthetically nice to present vegan meals as "instaready" but most people don't eat like that and need easy realistic ideas. and that's ok to have canned if ya can't make them dry. etc so well done. also it's great to hear Baby J's commentary lol
Thank you!! I think it's so important these days to show realistic vegan living.
Baby J is adorable!!!!!
Please do more of these videos!

Enjoyed the Costco shopping trip. Helpful tips!

You don't need make up, your skin is radiant ...Grat content, great food , great channel. Thank you for posting
She doesn't need it but it does look good and more vibrant when lightly applied.

I always sauté mushrooms every week but never put it on my toast. Happy to see you today
This is the first video i have seen of yours, and your energy is beautiful! I cannot wait to watch more!
Welcome!! Thank you :)
OMG Baby J has such an amazingn personality!! I really enjoyed having her in the video, it made it very very enjoyable!!!! Blessings from my channel to yours!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Love the video! I have never thought of putting mushrooms on my avocado toast or tofu in my chili. Thanks for the ideas!

That is a great point! Thank you for that. You've made a new organic buyer. They're only a few cents more expensive.
@@SweetPotatoSoul you’re welcome. Enjoy those organic bananas 😊
Another client sold on organic bananas. It makes so much sense, our money should support our organic soil. 💰💵🤑💸
Like wise, anything canned... it is processed and has harmful chemicals to preserve .. in other words, toxins.
This video was so cute. Baby J has gotten so big, and she speaks so well❤
Having a daughter is the best! ❤❤
@@Millesolovely Absolutely perfect for my adorable grandson!
Goya chickpeas are my favorite type to get
Avocado 🥑 toast I love
Mushrooms my favorites are baby Bella , and oyster mushrooms

The “handy dandy cell phone” was fun. So happy TH-cam decided to bring your channel back into my feed
Make your bean in the instapot a head of time and freeze them
You are beautiful with or without makeup! I love your videos and your kiddo is absolutely adorable!
I love the mommy daughter dinner date 🥰
She doesn't need make up ❤
None of us do
No woman does!
It's not about needing, it's about wanting, for fun !
No one does lol
Thanks for your sweet comment. I personally don’t want that kindness to be lost & I appreciate it! 😊

I listened to Takiya on Spotify and loved her voice.
Isn't she amazing?!
😍 .... Something about that broccoli. I skipped everything & only had it for dinner this week !
Thanks so much! I really enjoyed it and love this type of videos. 🙂🙏🏻💚💚💚
Yes, I will be taking notes.

Aweesome. Thank you! And your baby girl is so precious and cute.
You definitely taught me some things about the organic vs conventional & wild. Thank you. Baby J is just too cute.
Love these types of videos! you eat so beautifully!!!

Thank you for sharing Jenne. Your valuable contribution is appreciated. ❤😊🥦🍅🍎🍉🍇🇻🇪
Awww what a sweet vlog! I didn’t think of tofu for chili sounds fun to try!
Thank you!! It's my fave chili

Great idea!! I've gotten a lot of requests for kid-friendly foods. I do have a couple on my channel already, too!
Loved this!!!❤
What tea do you drink? You mentioned adaptogenic tea
I appreciate you doing a realistic what I eat in a day video. I like making fancy recopies from time to time, but I need easy quick ones too for busy week days.
I love the Chickpeas also. So proud you are teaching by example healthy eating. Great video.❤
Loved this!!!!❤❤❤ You and baby J together are the cutest.
I just LOVE your videos! 😊
Thank you for watching!!
Loved the relaxed video 🤩
Oh my gosh! You're daughter is sooo stinking cute!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ OH yes, and I love your channel too 😉
She goes to as many stores as I do. If you live near a Trader Joe's, they have the best prices on frozen fruit, raw nuts, and dark chocolate chips
Yep! They also sell ORGANIC wild blueberries in the frozen section.
yes. I know
@@laurastephenson2516 I really meant this comment for the poster. She mentioned that she buys frozen wildblueberries from Costco that are not organic. Didnt mean to suggest you didnt know😀
I buy like 30 bananas at a time so I can freeze about half of them for smoothies too.
Omg. I use the same salt! Just bought it on Amazon. It’s a game changer and so healthy!!!
Loved this! ❤
Ps: I am wish I looked like this without makeup!!
Amen to you and thank you for the healthy food🙏💯🤓🙏
It’s so fun to watch you shopping and hiking and of course cooking, I live in Atlanta too!
I work at a library and had them purchase your book so I could check it out, well, I bought my own book and I want to thank you for sharing your vegan journey with us through your recipes. YUM!
Wow, thank you!
Welcome back!!
Omg your little one is adorable ❤
You girls are so cute! Yummy healthy food! Thank you for this. 🌱🕊💚
Baby Jade IS SO CUTE.😊❤❤❤❤🇯🇲
Can you make a video about sourdough bread
how to make it and bake bread with it? Would certainly interest many
th-cam.com/video/WaMDDyNMrzs/w-d-xo.html I have this sourdough video!
Really enjoyed this one; love your more personal videos 😊
I also appreciate that you always blurr out Baby J's face! A lot of parents on social media unfortunately don't care about their kid's privacy.
Awe, this was such a great video!!!
Glad you liked it!!
Love this! Baby J is just amazing!
Best way to shop with friends and buy in bulk. It goes out cheaper in the long RUN. 😊❤🇯🇲
loved this style of video. and your daughter is so silly and cute 😁
She's such a ham!! Thank you 💗
@@SweetPotatoSoul She's a peach lol. Keep it vegan.
Your daughter is like you-so smart and beautiful!
Great video! When will your new cookbook be available?
I love avacodo toast 4 brkfst but I've nvr added sauted mushrooms I'll have 2 try that..junk taste yummy 😆 I agree!
She's adorable, thanks for sharing.
I love the recipes and vids and I also love that you obscure baby Js face for her safety. It’s weird to me when parents don’t do that on such a public platform.
My local Costco doesn't carry canned chickpeas. I wish they did, but my local King Soopers (Kroger) has good deals on the Simple Truth organic beans.
What's the adaptogenic tea you're having? Recipe please 😁
Oh yeah! I forgot to share. I use Rasa
Love this! Thanks for sharing!

Awesome video !
Love you cool green toe socks 👍😊🤩 Where did you pick up those? Many greetings from Denmark ❤
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS❤
Love your videos ❤️ Do you ever shop at Sevananda? My fav 😀
Is the corn bread recipe in your cook book?
60-ish dollars seems quite much for this produce. Is that common in the US? Did you buy more than what we see?
