My go-to sickness meal and comfort food is a big bowl (or three) of hearty semolina porridge. Ate it when I had Covid while 6 months pregnant, and when I came down with a very inconviniently timed cold a week before my due date. It was just the perfect balance of filling, easy on the stomach, nutritious and delicious. Basically you just take a whole bunch of vegetables of your choice, chop them up, make a soup and add semolina and soy granules, or whatever else ingredients you like.
Okay, so I didn’t make cauli soup, but I did roast it just like you showed and ate it as a side… And it was sooooo good! Knocked it out of the park again Mary,
I like to make a turmeric golden milk and matcha hybrid. So matcha with turmeric, black pepper, ginger, some maple syrup and a touch of cayenne. darn good. and I'm also a soy curl fan. Really easy to rehydrate and very clean ingredients. Love 'em. Thanks Mary, glad you're back and hope you feel happy and strong.
Meow meow, meeeooowwww meow. That means “get better soon Riles!” In cat. 🤭 My most senior dog just had an eye removed 6 days ago, so I know how your heart is aching for your kitty. Always love your videos 💝
I've been dealing with bad health a lot this year. Haven't heard all of what is happening with you, but hope you are finding more moments of peace these days.
Thinking of you, your family and Riley too Mary. Hugs, rest and good food and catching up with friends snd nature and journalling help me. I love hygge too in aitumn/winter nice cosy lights and blankets/pjs and hot chocolate in the evening too sometimes and old childhood favourite movies or books and stuffed toys xx
I buy avocado or guacamole in individual cups that way I never get a bad avocado or one that refuses to ripen. If you don't eat them fast enough, you can freeze them and they're perfectly fine when you go to use them later. They are a bit more expensive but there's zero waste, so in the long run I don't think it actually costs me more. I would look for them at a discounted grocer like Thrive, Costco or Sam's club something like that.
Omg...i was just ruminating over what to eat...and you have soup in your intro. Yes, I am still at your intro and had to comment. Off to make soup while your video plays. 💌
Wonderful looking eats, Mary! I sympathize with your need to recover from caregiving; been there, and the physical and mental exhaustion that often results needs to be addressed before it sets in. Looks like you're getting out ahead of that by feeding and resting yourself properly. : ) Thanks for posting! P.S. Heavenly Fan's keto bread recipes are pretty good, I think.
Thanks😊 I dunno if I got ahead so much as mitigated...things could be worse! I went to the dr with a list of minor but strange symptoms and STRESS was the number one culprit according to her. As always, I appreciate your kind words so much ❤️❤️❤️
Those tortilla's looks so good!😋 The soup is something I have to try it looked really thick.. soy curls and me aren't friends yet.. hopefully soon. Knowing something you feel is due to stress is easier then not knowing and fighting it.. I still haven't figured out a solution to relieve stress..but I will some day figure it out.
Awww! Poor Riles! Prayers for sure! I just met with my dietitian and she wants me to have semi-low carb but 30 grams of protein at every meal and at bedtime. I am struggling! But because of my extreme blood sugar swings it's a necessity.
Thanks, Betty. Riles' energy still seems good but the drop in weight is really worrying. It's so good you have professional guidance. Im sure once you figure out a few favorite high protein low carb meals, it will become easier. I'm wishing you the best of luck 💪
We were on a visit to Texas to see family. I ate horribly. I ate a lot of kale salads. Rice and beans with pico de gallo. Yum! We’ve had a lot go wrong and that’s taking away time for working on the house. Booooo. Lol It all works out right? 👍💜🥰
Beautiful video ones again Mary. Thank you for all the great recipes. Just in case you don't know yet. Many coconut products that come from Thailand involve monkey slave labourer. So it's best to always check which products are pets approved as many producers lie snowy who picks their coconuts.
HI MARY, JUST TO LET YOU KNOW YOU SHOULD NEVER BOIL MATCHA. YOU SHOULD PUT IT IN A MUG MIX IT WITH COLD VEGAN MILK OR WATER AND ADD THE HOT LIQUID BUT IT SHOULD NEVER BE BOILING. " 175 to 180 degrees. is the temp for all green teas! Water should be steaming briskly, but not yet boiling.
😍😍😍 I sit in my car to recover from stressful times. lol… your methods seem more fruitful tho! Loved all of these recipes. I definitely want to try the cauliflower soup
Hi Mary: New subscriber here. Where did you get your soy curls from? I would love to try and make those tortillas.....can't wait for the recipe! Love your orange cat :)
You must have a very healthy bladder because I could never drink and drink and drink and soup and liquid .... :( My life would be in the powder room forever:( :( :( :( :(
Jesus is the way, the truth and the light. Surrender, believe to Him and all doubts, fears turn to peace and joy. Fear not for The Lord is with you. He has carried me through many trails encluding anxiety. He does not promise us life will be w breeze but we will have sound mind and His love to pull us through. Thank you for all the delicious resipes over the years. My favorite still is the fried chicken and black pepper chicken. GOD bless all with His grace, peace and love

Kale salads and rice and beans with pico de gallo? Sounds like the food went RIGHT! Hope it's going better now
@@marystestkitchen Sorry. I’m not good at words. Lol. I meant since I’ve been back I’ve been eating kale and pico. 😂
Love your videos
Thank you, Tonda ❤️❤️❤️
What's the best place to find nutritional info on plants & good recipes so that you have a balanced & healthy vegan diet?
There isn't one, in my opinion. But lots of different sources 🤷♀️
Beautiful video ones again Mary. Thank you for all the great recipes. Just in case you don't know yet. Many coconut products that come from Thailand involve monkey slave labourer. So it's best to always check which products are pets approved as many producers lie snowy who picks their coconuts.
Yes I know. Thanks for sharing ❤️❤️❤️
I'm with you on the avocado, I'm in Edmonton and they are super expensive and kind of nasty!
Right!!? It's so sad
Hi Mary! Where do I get soy curls? I can’t find them in my stores 😅
I get them from VeganSupply.ca here in Canada. But I know you can buy them directly from Butler's (the maker of soy curls) in the USA
@@marystestkitchen wonderful! Thank you! Can’t wait to use them for your recipes ❤️

Hi! Nice to have you here!
idk if i can actually taste the difference between pink and white salt, i just get the pink cuz it's pretty lol
SAME!
The pink is high in iron. That's where it gets its colour.
Looks delicious. Low effort is my middle name. 😅
Same here lately! Thanks for watching ☺️
👌👌👌
❤️❤️❤️ thank you for watching!❤️❤️❤️
❤🙏🏼❤️
Thanks for watching ❤️
delicious looking thumbnail xox
Thank you ☺️
What do you mean recovery
I talk all about it in the video
You are just supposed to use induction pots and pans on an induction stove.
Yes I know. All of mine are "induction ready" and that one sauce pan usually works 🤷♀️
@@marystestkitchen I see, strange.
Almond coconut flour tortillas cannot possibly be "grainy"
😂
Gritty then
How much do you weigh
OMGoodness your cat ... GORGEOUS
I only share the weight of ingredients online ✌️😉❤️😸

You must have a very healthy bladder because I could never drink and drink and drink and soup and liquid .... :( My life would be in the powder room forever:( :( :( :( :(
I don't even mention how much water I drink on top of that 😂
