Made the kale salad, had it for lunch today Loved it!! Sooo good Made the chickpea salad,Love it!! And I made the collard tuna wraps,Love them all!!! Thank u so much! Tonya in Tennessee!!
Thank you for your video! I was diagnosed with fatty liver Fibrosis out of the blue and it's so stressful to find videos like this ! Thank you my heart is so grateful! 💓
I’m glad I ran across your video. Recently I went back to work and was struggling with different lunch options. Love everything you made (except for olives lol). Thx for the ideas
This was EVERYTHING! I love these containers. I must Google these! Hopefully the coupon code still work. I want them regardless. Also I love your voice..it's podcast perfect.
Thanks for sharing Meghan! You’re egg salad recipe got me thinking about the tuna salad I make with avocado, canned tuna, lemon, salt and pepper it’s good also with a drizzle of olive oil! I love quick fun snacks like this(:
Thank you so much for your review of the lunch boxes, but even more for the recipes. Two months ago, for a variety of reasons, I went from being a carnivore to being vegan with an emphasis toward raw vegan. That's said, I needed to learn a lot more recipes that are specific to the vegan diet. Being a handyman is my specialty, however food creativity isn't one of my specialties and I lack and experience of making meals, however, in watching your simple recipes I'm quite excited to try them out. Thank you for expanding your video into not being just a lunch box review but also a lunch making review, lol. I appreciate it.
One thing I noticed about between American cooking videos and korean/japanese cooking videos is that Americans talk a lot before and in between making the foods where the others just start making the food immediately. I'm not complaining I just think its funny 😄 😆
Just subscribed to your channel 😊 I have gotten the gastric sleeve almost 3 months ago and I’m looking for healthy eating ideas and I came across your channel and I think u have some great recipes. I’m not sure how I will like them but I’m willing to try them. Love to hear your ideas 😊
@@meghanlivingstone I made it last night. It was so good! I think I preferred it over spaghetti because it was so much lighter on the tummy. Please share more ways to use it, I have left over spaghetti squash:)
Hi Meghan, I’m so excited for all the videos that you make. I would like to ask if what specific brand of sunflower seeds butter are you using? Thank you 🙏 sending love and positivity to you 🤩
A lot of these have chopped avocado as part of the recipe - how do you keep your avocado from browning? My lemon juice solution seems to only half work....
Yummo!! Thank you. Also I hope you are starting to feel better 💞💐 I recently (1 year ago) experienced burn out after having my second child. It really snuck up on me! One day I just couldn't even talk ..I was completely empty. These days I try to do lots of self care and recognise when I need to stop! I am a big believer in a slow calm simple lifestyle. Things are alot better now. But it us a constant shift of balance. So, thinking of you and sending love. X
Hey there, thank you so much for asking. I'm feeling significantly better and making sure I don't slip back into old patterns! I've definitely made some changes to my lifestyle and it has really helped :) Happy to hear you've come out the other side of burn out too. It's certainly a constant balancing act xoxoxo
All of these recipes look amazing 😊 just wondering, for the chickpea salad and Greek salad, if you don’t like olives can you just leave them out or what else could you add instead?
All those healthy meals look delicious. However, I have a honest question about them: don’t you get hungry just eating those salads? Or should I understand that your greater meal, with carbs and proteins, comes in the evening? Here in Spain our lunch is the heavier meal. Thank you 🙏
Hey Rosa! I like having hearty breakfasts usually which helps, but everyone is different! Larger portions or extra snacks with lunch may be helpful for some :)
Can you please tell us the exact amount of the ingredients, you said SOME and for the chocolate chip bites it’s sems like you’re using exactly amount so please give us that info please Thanks
I recently bought this bento box, everything it’s advertised to be is true EXCEPT for the fact that it’s hard to open the white lids... like my thumb is red from trying to forcefully open it. In the video the white lids are already slightly opened when she opens them.... (and yes I know how to open it by lifting the silicone thing).
Hi Meghan Livingstone love all your videos verry inspirational. You have a positive vibe and you have a celtic fairytale beautiful cinematic face. Thanks for your videos have a nice day.
Hey Gillian! They may a little bit, it personally isn't too big a deal for me but you could squeeze a bit of lemon juice on the apples if you wanted to :)
These are all great ideas. But you know what? All those ingredients are expensive. Eating healthy includes a lot of expensive foods. I didn't realize how expensive until I was forced to be on a very strict budget. I always wondered why some people who were poor were over weight. In my ignorance I thought they just didn't make good choices. Now i understand why they (I) would choose a $2 bag of moderately healthy snack to a $5 bag of avocados. Not only for price but for waste when you are unable to get to a store for fresh things more frequently.
To be fair, most people don't need 4-5+ types of fruits and veggies per week. Meat doesn't have to be grass fed, carbs can be rice instead of quinoa, etc. Anything that is a step closer to being healthy is progress.
I'll admit I completely agree - I didn't have a shallow bowl that was wide enough when l filmed this. In retrospect I should have used a pan (curious, what do you use?)
The bento box is the best I've ever seen! Thank you, I'll buy it for sure!
It's a great, well designed lunch box for sure! Very compact :)
Yes me too!
Great lunch ideas and hopefully will help me stay out of the freezer asile. Thanks for sharing.
This video was so calming, perfect before having a snack. Thank you for sharing this. ❤️

Best video ever! Now my husband will start eating healthier lunches that he finds tasty too. Needed this video. Huge thank you.

Try to add some black garlic to the first salad. It is amazing.
That kale salad dressing sounds amazing. It all looks so good!
My favorite too.
Your channel is an absolute gold mine! Love all of your videos

I have Greek salad with all my meals. My favorite salad and the healthiest.
Love these recipes but they're more like for summer. Can you share some hot recipes for when it's chilly outside ?
Kite hill has an incredible veggie dip, I love both the flavors with carrots espically. And it’s plant-based!
Hi Meghan! I loved this video, thank hoy so much, i really want to change my diet but i don't know how to start, this really helped me

that greek salad looks AMAZING!
It's sooooo yum. And so simple!
My kids would love the bites!
And Greek salad is LIFE!!
These are awesome ideas!! You made such a beautiful video too.
Thanks alot Meghan
How do you keep the apples from browning? Mine always gets brown once I cut them and try to bring with me.
I've heard that dropping the slices in warm water / a squirt of lemon juice can help, but havent tried it myself!
RootedReinvention or I use Fruit Fresh, which is a powder that is made to keep whatever fruit like apples fresh for the whole day :)
The sweater looks super cozy!
Love these kind of videos! Thank you so much! Just bought a spaghetti squash the other day to try your recipe :)
Yaaaay! Love spaghetti squash! So many great ways to use them :)
@@meghanlivingstone I made it last night. It was so good! I think I preferred it over spaghetti because it was so much lighter on the tummy. Please share more ways to use it, I have left over spaghetti squash:)
Great ideas! Very helpful.
Such nice lunches... thank you for sharing! Have a wonderful day! Christine
Great recipes! So much hard work goes into them! From a new subscriber ❤️
Great video Meghan! I love bento box lunches and lots of different options 💙
I love the recipes! Thank you! Bento boxes are a nice idea but too expensive for me even with the discount.
Hey even 7 months later i found some for 5$ at target in the little dollar section they have in the beginning of the store
"You can use a tortilla wrap but I do like the collard wraps for the grain free option"
*proceeds to use grainy mustard again*
Blehp :P it is the seed that is used in the condiment. And in theory gluten free, but for sure there are “unsafe” brands.
The grainy in mustard is about consistency. It doesn’t contain grains. Although, check your labels for sneaky stuff.
Excellent, feasible ideas!!
Hi Meghan, I’m so excited for all the videos that you make. I would like to ask if what specific brand of sunflower seeds butter are you using? Thank you 🙏 sending love and positivity to you 🤩
Where did you get the cup that you put the nut butter in for the apples??? I need some of those but can’t find them anywhere...
A lot of these have chopped avocado as part of the recipe - how do you keep your avocado from browning? My lemon juice solution seems to only half work....
I would say put the pit in, but as the pits are very large (and choking hazard for children) it would be hard to keep in a small container
Mmmm these look so good! The boxes are so convenient too!
Super handy lunchboxes! I love the design :)
If we don't have flaxseed with what ingredient we can replace it?
Glad I came across your channel! New subscriber!
Love them all! 👏🏻👌😊
Great video really and so relaxing
Great video Meagan 👍
Love your recipe videos 🤩 I’ve been looking for new healthy meals to make. I’ll have to try these 😋😋
Yay! Enjoy! :D
So helpful!! Love this
Yummo!! Thank you.

Very good. Sounds good ❤
Hello. In kale salad, does kale taste good without cooked or steamed
My daughter is 4, do you think she would want a kids version of this? And it would be so much nicer than random containers in her lunch!
The no bake bites-can you sub a different flour, like almond?
So is the vegatablenliterally called a collard green or what is it?
All of these recipes look amazing 😊 just wondering, for the chickpea salad and Greek salad, if you don’t like olives can you just leave them out or what else could you add instead?
alibone195 you can definitely omit the olives! I’d suggest some avocado for some healthy fats similar to them :)
What could you use in place of chickpeas? I am allergic. I love your videos by the way
All those healthy meals look delicious. However, I have a honest question about them: don’t you get hungry just eating those salads? Or should I understand that your greater meal, with carbs and proteins, comes in the evening? Here in Spain our lunch is the heavier meal. Thank you 🙏
Hey Rosa! I like having hearty breakfasts usually which helps, but everyone is different! Larger portions or extra snacks with lunch may be helpful for some :)
Please make these kind of videos ones a month, so simple and so easy
I loved it ❤️All are great ideas
Hi! What song/sound did you use as background music?
What is sth that you should not eat if you have cdiff?
Is cantelope and sweet melon the same thing?
Has anyone tried these recipes if so I’m just wondering if you would taste the apple cider vinegar.
I would like to see more about what to eat when a person has IBS/potentially SIBO. Beans and grains and raw veggies don't work for me at all.
Can you please tell us the exact amount of the ingredients, you said SOME and for the chocolate chip bites it’s sems like you’re using exactly amount so please give us that info please
Thanks
i cannot! wait to try these recipes for uni 😊 i also have ibs so your channel in general is sooo helpful for me ):
I'm so happy to help! IBS is not fun at all. xx
I’m Karen and I love this video and so grateful for the ideas ! ♥️
Finally karen has some interest in culture 😌💅

Can’t wait to make these
These all sound soooo tasty!
Hi Meghan Livingstone love all your videos verry inspirational. You have a positive vibe and you have a celtic fairytale beautiful cinematic face. Thanks for your videos have a nice day.
Celtic fairytale beautiful cinematic face -- best comment I've ever received. Haha thank you so much! And thanks for watching xx
They all look so delicious
I saw you added cut up apples and halved banana to some of the boxes, do those get brown after a few hours?
Hey Gillian! They may a little bit, it personally isn't too big a deal for me but you could squeeze a bit of lemon juice on the apples if you wanted to :)
OMG everything looks delicious ❤
I love your resepes I don’t know which one
i LOVE these bento boxes, my fiance and i both have one
I have to find a substitute for carrots. I can't stand them. But it did look really good.
Do you need to do anything to stop the apples going brown once sliced? thanks
Salt helps. Or I've heard a bit of seltzer water.
Lemon juice! The antioxidants in lemon stop the apple from oxidizing (turning brown)
Hotel will give you this if you are going on a full-day excursion
How do you keep your sliced apple from browning?
You could squeeze some lemon juice on top if you'd like to! Otherwise it personally doesn't bother me if they brown a bit. xx
Ok im going to buy a bento box rn😀
Do you always buy organic cucumbers and apples? I find that I need to peel conventional ones as the skin is so tough and has that nasty wax on it...
I'm diabetic I want those recipes 😋
Excellent
These are all great ideas. But you know what? All those ingredients are expensive. Eating healthy includes a lot of expensive foods. I didn't realize how expensive until I was forced to be on a very strict budget. I always wondered why some people who were poor were over weight.

Not only for price but for waste when you are unable to get to a store for fresh things more frequently.
Unfortunately you might pay for it later, with your health 😞
That’s so true. I wish I had the choice between meds, food , and housing. But many of us just have to make decisions that get us from day to day.
To be fair, most people don't need 4-5+ types of fruits and veggies per week. Meat doesn't have to be grass fed, carbs can be rice instead of quinoa, etc. Anything that is a step closer to being healthy is progress.
Love olives
Is everything paleo?
Love these recipes. However, I have truly never seen anyone use so much water to soak a rice paper wrap...
I'll admit I completely agree - I didn't have a shallow bowl that was wide enough when l filmed this. In retrospect I should have used a pan (curious, what do you use?)
@@meghanlivingstone We use a pie plate.
