SQUEAL!!!! I have recently started watching your videos and WOW! You are awesome 🎉 So very thorough and such great content!!! It's like having a friend who cares enough to help so that your life can be better! Thank you to you and Tom for teaching me and helping me ❤. It's really been overwhelming trying to navigate from the SAD way of eating to WFPB vegan! Knowledge and inspiration both! Yay!!! God bless you ❤
HI! I so enjoyed this grocery haul. It feels like it has been a long time since I was watching you from your kitchen! I know your busy and have a lot of things on the go, but I miss the live chats where you answered questions, explained a facet of going/being plant based etc. I know you are probably tire of those type of vids but I loved them. Regardless I will watch any videos you put out. Thanks for all the hard work you both do, it helps keep me on track and I like feeling like a part of likeminded group.
@@jackieo2403 Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comments. We had a lot of fun doing those live talks. It’s great to know you enjoyed those videos. I’m not sure what we will do regarding live shows in the future other than grocery hauls. But we might pop on and do an impromptu live now and again. Of course recipe videos and such are still in the works. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. ❤️

Good for us to see all this shopping. You van always get more at your Costco than me here at a small store in Georgetown, TX We’re happy to have one. They have a lot of I don’t go to Whole Foods very often. It is a little over an hour one way. I am interested in getting the burger you mentioned. I guess i need to go back to get the name. I was preparing our breakfast. Thanks for sharing. Wonderful you showed a picture of you, your mom, and son.
I never get tired of watching your grocery hauls! I sure hope our Costco carries the organic canned pumpkin, that’s a great deal. It’s that time of year, I’ll be making some of your pumpkin recipes. They’re all delicious. Thanks. 😊
@@gingermitchell5441 we don’t eat out very often. We do like pho vegan Asian cuisine in Rocklin. They have an oil free and gluten free menu. The Tami’s Special is not on the menu but it is in their computer. It is a veggie stir, fry oil free, sugar free, gluten free over Brown rice.

I cook acorn squash like my mother did…..poke it several times, put on parchment lined pan….and put the WHOLE squash in the oven….60 min for 45=60 min. Much easier than cutting in half…..
Love your comment re the plastic police - it’s not just in Northern California where most things,organic or not, are sold in plastic. I live in regional Victoria, Australia where most of the fruit and vegetables sold in supermarkets come in plastic. It’s the same when we are in England - plastic is everywhere
Oh my goodness the plastic used in Japan and Korea at the grocery is incredible!!!!!! they wrap single pieces of fruit, two onions, top baskets with more plastic...people I have seen don't bring re-usable produce bags because it is already packaged....
@@JillianSmith-bn5vj Thanks for sharing. We do the best we can with purchasing organic food that is affordable. We have seen some improvements at some of the stores now using paper trays to put the food instead of plastic etc.
Thank you for not Shying away from the saying the word Vegan! ❤☮️☀️ Oh, but did you do a quote gesture when saying Vegan? Just curious. No worries if youre busy, dont see this message and dont answer. Lots of great items here! Just was watching your Vegan penne pasta recipe vid, yumm!
@@kat4animals004 I don’t know why I did air quotes when I said vegan, I didn’t even realize I did that until you mentioned it. I had Tom take that out because it was confusing. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. ♥️
It’s pumpkin season! Go buy 2-3 pie pumpkins and roast and freeze in 1 cup servings! I was told that canned pumpkin is not really pumpkin but different squashes.
Tami could you maybe please do a video on squashes and tips ideas and what to do with them as in storing them cooking ideas and anything about them as I like many maybe new ro using them I always buy butternut squash but not all the kind ime able to get now because of eating wfpb I love trying out new things ingredients and veggies and fruits etc , so now it's squash season a video on all the tips and ideas around these brilliant varieties of squashes please maybe other people like me are abit like eww don't know what to do with them etc xx
Hello- in your inernet search engine, you can type in: Nutmeg notebook tofu and her tofu recipes on her blog will come up for you to choose from. Hope that helps.
I eat 1/2 block of tofu daily with breakfast. I slice it and pan cook to brown on both sides - then do open faced breakfast sandwich (one slice Ezekiel bread) with avocado and salsa- sometimes add a slice of tomato or roasted bell pepper. It has the texture of an egg without the eggy flavor. Lots of protein, calcium and iron. My favorite meal of the day.
I stopped buying bananas at Costco years ago because they never really rippened even though it looked like it. They have been bitter... The ones you got must be good. Ill try again. Im also in CA.
@@annerudziensky9313 one week! But some will go into batch cooked food that will be frozen for future meals. Some will be cooked and shared with family.
Love all you both do and show tami. One thing ide love you to try its somthing I can't find , is can you make ure own curry sauce , to pour over anything a recipe on this would be absolutely brilliant, also a Chinese flavour easy sauce or marinade ❤
We are oil free but not fat free. There is some natural healthy fats in things like tofu, avocado, tahini, nuts and nut butter. I avoided those when I was losing weight but now allow some in my weekly diet.

Loved your tip about using the dough hook on the hand mixer to integrate the oil into the nut butter. Genius tip!!
