Welcome! I’m Denise and I make videos on a vegan whole plant food diet with no refined oil, no refined sugar, and low sodium. Whole Plant Foods are low on the calorie density scale and high in nutrients! And because of that this lifestyle is great for weight-loss! This way of life also has a low impact on the environment, and allows us to be the voice for the voiceless and BE THE CHANGE as far as ending animal cruelty.
My only wish is that I discovered this way of eating earlier, but this was my journey so no-regrets and I'm here now...it's for life.
Join me as we support each other, empower each other, motivate and inspire each other to be our best selves, eating the cleanest we possibly can and feeling amazing about it!

Using Frozen Veggies For A Quick Salad!
Переглядів 1,5 тис.2 роки тому
The frozen mixed veggies I’d use is a package with any combination of corn, peas, carrots, edamame, green peas. Just defrost in fridge the night before, or lay it out on your countertop day of. Any way to make it easier to eat your salad and get those phytochemicals…do it! If chopping veggies takes too long this is a quick workaround. Happy Plant Eating!!🥗 Thank you for watching 🌺

that’s actually pretty good! Thanks!
Only thing is i really dislike tuneric taste
The tumeric is just for color in this recipe so you can omit that if you don’t like the taste. :)
Thank you!
How many days will it stay fresh?
5 days. On the 6th day I throw it out. I write the date that I made it on blue painters tape and tape it to the lid of the container, so I know when 5 days passes. Thank you for your question and for watching!! 😊☀️
@@WholePlantFoodForLifeso glad u replied!! I’ve been looking for oil free plant based butter forever! Will try it n share the results with u!!
Is your almond flour ground almonds? I am from Germany and dont understand english that well.
Hi to you in Germany! Good question, and yes exactly...almond flour is ground almonds. The stores here sell it ground.
Thank you for this! Nice to find a gf recipe. Would any of the ingredient ratios change if I add a 3/4 teaspoon each of anise and almond flavoring?
I haven't tried it, but it sounds to me like it would work without having to change other ratios since it's only 3/4 tsp of each added. Best of luck if you try it!
I would not use Morton salt... this is not good salt. Black/ eggy Hawaiian salt, or pink or Celtic
Nuts are healthy 🎉so we are good
Can,t wait to try this. Thanks for posting.
Sure, and thank you for commenting!! 💗
Another great fat free "butter" spread... Put 1/2 cup cornmeal, salt to taste, a little nooch if desired , a dash of turmeric for color, + 2 cups of boiling water into a high speed blender and blend on high for 3 minutes. Once it cools below 110 F, stir in 1/4 cup of plant based yogurt and chill. It thickens as it cools and makes a great spread, or can be thinned with milk as a "melted" addition to veggies.
This is great, thank you for the recipe!! 🙏🏻🫶
What can I add instead of date sugar. Will stevia work
I have only tried this with date sugar. I'm sure other sugars will work but haven't tested it.
How many calories does it have?
I haven't measured the calories. If they are simple and pure, unprocessed ingredients then that's a green flag for me. Thank you for asking.
I have liquid date syrip. Nvr heard of date sugar.
That,s really only 6. Those r too small. Too much trouble for so few. 40!min.s added on is.totally unnecessary. Waste of elec.. I made some.last.wk. Choc.from coco powder and cherry extract, half coconut flour, just a little sugar. w.walnuts . They were goood . No choc chips . Too sugary. Roll in powdered sugar.
I think there's a lot of fat in almond milk. Have you tried it with homemade oat milk? That is just made from oats in water, so it's fat-free.
I haven't tried it with oat milk, but I'm sure it would work well too! Thanks for the suggestion!
Going to try this, but do you soak the lentils overnight first?
Thank you for your question! I don't soak the lentils. Hope you enjoy it when you make it!!
@WholePlantFoodForLife Thank you!
Great recipe. Thank you
Thank you!
This is a sauce or a spread not a butter.
Does this butter sets in the fridge like real butter, or stays creamy like a spread?
It stays creamy like a spread. :)
Do you think that this work with potato instead of cauliflower?
Hmm, I haven't tried it with potato. I feel like it might change the flavor and maybe it wouldn't taste similar to "butter", but it's possible it will taste good either way, especially if you are not too concerned with getting that butter flavor. It might still be a delicious spread. Best of luck if you try it!!
I made vegan mayo with potato, the recipe is circulating on youtube. Was pretty good, everyone was surprised it is oil free
Yum! Sounds delicious...I will try to find that video of the potato vegan mayo that is circulating! Thanks for sharing!! @@couchalmighty 😀👍
Beautiful Salad!💜💚🤎♥️🧡🥰
Thank you!!! ❤💓💝🤗
Thank you for watching!! 💞
Do you have a recipe for vegan struffoli?
I don't have a recipe for struffoli unfortunately, but I guess you could modify the ingredients to make them plant based, and then bake instead of fry the balls, and use date syrup instead of honey, although that might make the balls dark in appearance. For the sprinkles, the ones that use coloring from natural sources from fruits/veggies can be used instead of the artificial red 40 etc coloring. Or omit the sprinkles if you don't want the added processed sugar. Best of luck if you try it!! Struffoli looks like such a festive dessert for the Holiday's. I don't make sweet WFPB desserts so much these days, and prefer fruit platters, fresh fruit cake, or fruit skewers, etc. for dessert for parties/gatherings. Even the WFPB desserts are addictive for me, and high in sugar because of the large volume of dates in it, so I'm better off with fruit. Hehe :) There are lots of Holiday fruit designs on Pinterest. Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones! ❤
I am bringing this for Thanksgiving
Oh that's great to hear!! The Esselstyn's scored with making this recipe! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! ❤
I cannot find red lentils, so I am using brown. I hope it will work! @@WholePlantFoodForLife
@plantbasedgirl5854 I'm sure it will work. I'd maybe cook the brown lentils a bit longer since they are more firm than the red lentils. Best of luck! Hope it turns out great!
Your biscotti came out amazing. Followed all your tips and ingredients,except that I added half a teaspoon of almond extract. So wonderfully good. Thank you for this healthy recipe.
Wonderful to hear you tried the recipe and it turned out well!! Love the addition of the almond extract!! Thank you for sharing, fellow plant friend!! ♥🤗
This video was amazing and educational. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure, and thank you for your thoughtful comment!! Glad you enjoyed the video! 💜💙💛
Did you bring the colander with you while on vacation? I have not seen it in airbnbs but it could be because i am out of the country
I didn't bring my colander from home, and instead I am using the one provided in the cabin. If they didn't have one, I would probably just keep the lid on the pasta pot with a little crack open and pour out the water that way. Thanks for your question and for watching!!❤
I love Eat to Live! Dr. Fuhrman is awesome. Thank you for this recipe! Looks so good!
🍒 This has long been one of my favorite ETL recipes!!
Great to hear you know it and love it too!! This recipe really does have so much yummy flavor! Go Dr. Fuhrman! 😁And thank you for your comment!! 🙏🏻❤️
@@WholePlantFoodForLife You’re so welcome!! 😊
I doubled this recipe, but it was too runny. Next time, I will double everything but the milk.
I have coconut sugar, can I use that instead of date sugar?
I haven't tried it with coconut sugar but yes I'm sure it would work. Hope you like it if you try it! ♥
Thanks for these amazing recipes.
Sure, and thank you for watching & commenting!! 💕
how long can this butter last in the fridge?
I always keep mine for 5 days, and if there is any left by the 6th day (usually never, lol) then I toss it. I put a piece of painter's tape or regular tape on the lid with the date that I made it so that I know when I should eat it by. Thanks for your question! ♥
Nicely prepared and well presented. 😋😋😋 Thoroughly enjoyed the whole process.🤩🤩
That's so sweet, thank you so much! ♥
Very good and easy to make!
Thank you! ❤
I just came upon your channel searching for vegan oil free dressings. These look amazing! Can't wait to try them all. Thank you for sharing🥰
Welcome, and thanks for taking the time to comment! Glad you like the oil-free dressings!! The ranch, tahini and McDougall Caesar dressing are my favorites!! ♥
This makes me want some pea soup today! This recipe sounds very easy and yummy!
Good tip with the mandarin oranges instead of fries.
Thank you! Yes, it's great that they have mandarin oranges as a substitute! ♥
Could this recipe be frozen for longer storage?
I haven't tried freezing it but yes I'm sure it would work because the main ingredient is cauliflower and that is definitely freezable. Thanks for the question!
Can i use whole wheat flour instead of oats?
I haven't tried it with whole wheat flour so I'm not sure. My instinct tells me yes it would be fine but not 100% sure. If you happen to try it with whole wheat flour let me know how it goes. Thanks for your question! ♥
How long are these dressings good in the fridge ? Thank you
They last about 5 days. I get painter's tape and write the day I made the dressing on the tape and stick it on my dressing container, so I can remember when I made it. After the 5th day I toss any leftover dressing. We usually finish it by the 5th day though because you can put these dressings on a lot of things. Thanks for your question! ♥
Wonderful video and a wealth of information! Please keep them coming. ❤
Awe, thank you so much! I appreciate your kindness and your comment. ♥
Ahhh I found these! They look fabulous!! Thanks so much. ♥️
Yay, I'm glad you found the video!! I wish I could post links to my videos on IG instead of people having to search for them. Thanks for going through the effort of finding it from my IG post. You're the best!! ♥
I have sugar sensitivity because of my teeth and cavities. Is there a way to opt the sugar out for the pie filling?
Good question…I haven’t tried it without the dates. I imagine the filling won’t taste so good if you are making it for others without the sweetener, however if you have a sugar sensitivity and you are used to not having much sugar then you might want to try it without the dates in the filling, especially since the pumpkin has a natural sweetness. As far as the crust you can definitely not add the date sugar and it will be fine.
@@WholePlantFoodForLife Texture of pie won't be changed buy not adding sugar?
@@EWASHINGTON228 The texture of the crust won't change without the date sugar, and as far as the filling, I'm not sure if the texture will change because I haven't tried it, but if you do an experiment and try it out let me know how it goes. Sorry I don't have more information on that. Thanks for taking the time to comment! ♥
Looks amazing will definitely give it a go
Sounds great! Hope you like it if you make it! ❤️
I generally grab two oatmeals.
Hehe, yes they are kind of small, and 2 oatmeals seems like a more normal portion size for the average adult. If I add banana slices it is more filling. Thanks for commenting Si Lence! And very cool username! 👍
Thanks for giving us ideas to order, you should make another for holiday beverages please 😊😊😊
Sure no prob. As far as a holiday beverages video, thank you for the idea!! I would love to do that and think it would be interesting for people, but I literally only drink water pretty much. Lol Kinda boring. The decaf teas are fine too. :D Thanks so much for your comment! 🥰
♥️Great job in a pinch!! I don’t know if I would have been as strong as you were.🥺 I sure LOVE my oatmeal.
Thank you!! For sure, oatmeal is sooo yummy, filling, and healthy. It's a win, win, win. Hehe 🤗
Sorry for the odd aspect ratio.😆 The raisins had oil in them unfortunately as it was listed on the ingredients, however you do the best you can when you are out, and using the raisins was still much better than the brown sugar or agave! Hehe If you can bring a banana from home you can chop that into your Starbucks oatmeal, or for an added cost Starbucks can add blueberries. Thank you for watching! ❤✌️
