I hope you enjoy this video and it helps you transition or stick to your vegan whole food plant based diet. These top 10 vegan foods have helped me lose up to 50 lbs of fat and got me healthier than I have ever been before. Most of the foods that I love and have made my top 10 list of vegan, plant based foods are high starch allowing me to stay full and satisfied for longer periods of time. When I make meals with these plant foods, I make sure to keep my meals lower in fat as well. I still eat fat, I just don't overdue it. I ready the book, The Starch Soution and really started to understand calorie density which is what helped me lose 50 LBS of body fat.

I feel like I say this every video but Tia is 100% right. Tia, you've made my life so easy. I'm no longer pouring hours into meal prep. You have to set yourself up for success. I'm 40 lbs down. Halfway to my goal. I'm at a plateau but I'm adjusting and I'll get through it. But stress reduction is vital to weight loss. And if you lessen the stress in the kitchen, life will be so much easier. Since I started cooking like Tia suggests, I no longer look in the pantry and wonder what I'm going to cook. I just grab my stuff and put it together. Family is fed in less than 30 min. Frozen rice. Precooked potatoes. Frozen veggies. Canned beans. Sauces and seasonings. Boom!!! Game Changer yall!!!!!!
This is awesome! Yay! So happy for you 🌱
Congratulations 🎊How long did it take for you to lose 40 lbs
For me: rice, hummus, chickpeas, frozen blueberries, frozen spinach, vegetable broth, olive oil, oats, sweet potatoes, dried fruit, apples. These are my staples. I'm 90% plant based but not vegan :)
More plant is always a great choice so I’d say 90% is amazing. Keep it up 🙌🏻😀
Not only are you very motivating and passionate, you're a hoot to listen to and watch!!!
☺️ thank you so much
I am 75 years old. Love the simplicity of your foods. I stress myself out doing more complicated meals.
So happy you enjoy
Excellent video Tia and my favourite top ten foods are:
1) Potatoes
2) Greens
3) Whole wheat pasta
4) Brown rice
5) Beans, legumes and lentils
6) Seeds
7) Cruciferous vegetables
8) All other vegetables not included in Greens and Cruciferous categories.
9) Fruits
10) Nutritional yeast
And others worth a mention include yeast extract,spices and herbs, plant based milk, canned of categories 5, 8,9 and frozen of categories 5,7,8,9.
What are brassica vegetables??
@@lisaferrin362 Cauliflower, Broccoli, Cabbage, Brussels sprouts, Kale, also known as Cruciferous(anti cancer) vegetables. Sorry for speaking gardening language because Cruciferous vegetables ( with the exception of Garlic being part of the Onion family of plants) are classified as part of the Brassicas family of plants.
That’s great. Love to hear your top 10.
Potatoes and nutritional yeast. Potatoes and everything bagel seasoning. Love em!!
Yum!
Love my potatoes
Frozen veggies and fruits and canned beans are honestly a life saver.
Will never be without them
Awesome!
Thank you, I'm loving your videos! Thought I would share a veggie broth hack- saves & money, storage space & waste: Better than Bullion Veggie broth in the jar! Sooo delicious, 1 TBSP + 1 C of warm/hot water makes a cup of broth. I even add a bit to my dry beans when making on stove or in Instant Pot. Thanks again for the inspiration & ideas!
I love love love Better Than Bouillon!!!
I love the simplicity. Great advice.
Exactly the reminder I needed to keep things simple. This is the best. Thank you!
Thank you so much Tia. I am a busy solo parent having to cook seperate meals. You have just helped me so much. ❤ I have also ordered your cook book and can't wait for it to arrive 😊
Love these tips! Especially about the rice. Thanks for all you do! I love your channel❤
All great wonderful ideas thanks so much
❤ love it Thank-you for great information. It help me to change over to a Plant based eating. So happy 😊
Oh! Great idea for freezing rice! I’m definitely doing this!
Try using a George Foreman grill for crispy hashbrowns! Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and zest for life! I really enjoy watching your videos! 💜
Two more cookbooks, I luv the first cookbook so woo-hoo!!!! 🙌🏻 You are such an inspiration
I’m so excited and so happy you like Simple Vegan Mama
Loved this video so much Tia. I love your joyful way! 💗 Green tea is caffeine free if you don't want too too much lemon on your (or your kids) teeth! I like it extra strong because it tastes weak to me. But if you liked sweet tea before ...you can make it iced too with stevia! What was that sauce you had in your potato salad? 😋😋😋 It looked different than cheese sauce! Thank you for sharing! 💗🙏🌺
Great tips as always!!!
Fabulous video. Great to be reminded of all you have taught before. You make things simple. Just made your Mex Sweet potato chilli from your ebook. Yummy. ❤️
Yummy. So happy you enjoyed
Tia, I love your videos! So much excellent information. You are lovely!
Thank you so much. So happy you are enjoying
These were all good vegan foods to keep around. I have before I saw this video incorporated the potatoes, the rice and the beans. I did realize creating the best sauces and finding the spices makes all the difference in the world on how great a meal will taste.so I am working on this part of the diet. I know you are speaking from the heart because of what you have mentioned and what I discovered for myself being on this journey! Thank you for more tips which will make my life easiier!!
Awesome video! Thanks ever so much for all your tips. I didn’t know there was liquid stevia!😯 I will definitely try that and make some lemon water. Just a bit of that would do the trick for me as well. Frozen veggies and frozen fruits are my go-to most every day. Makes everything so easy and less stressful. 🙏😘Thanks Tia!
I’m sure you’re speaking all of our stories, during the switch over. Time spent on Pinterest searching recipes and yet it really is simplified by knowing simple rice, potatoes and veggies with a few spices or salads and simple sauces bring us such awesome meals.
I agree with the frozen rice! Make a bunch in my rice cooker and freeze individually in one cup servings. Also love potatoes and bananas. So filling. The vegetable broth definitely helps with oil free cooking. I used to cook almost everything in oil. Such a game changer when that was removed! Thanks for continuing to think of recipes and foods that support WFPB no oil cooking:)
I always get so much useful info/inspiration from you! Look forward to those cookbooks! Sauce Vegan Mama I 💕!
I’m so happy to hear that. 😀
sauces, dressings, etc. YES! SO important!!!
Thank you for all these quick ideas ! They have been great for me! Super busy special needs mom. I don’t have much time ❤️
I brew homemade (decaf) Luzianne and flavor with stevia (or Monk fruit if you are allergic) and lemon to give me my sweet tea fix.
I can’t wait for your cookbooks to come out! Especially the saucy one! Will they be available in paperback form? Thanks for another great video!
Yes I think so. Still figuring that out 😀
You are so right about frozen rice! 🙌
Thank you so much for the amazing suggestions. I have been trying to be vegan for years now but I keep falling off the wagon because of time constraints and not having restaurants to accommodate my way of eating. These ideas 💡 are so helpful!
I am new to your channel and switching to a plant based diet(one week ago). Your videos are SO helpful, you are so knowledgeable. I am binging on your videos and I have learned so much already. Thank you!
I’m so happy they are helpful, yay! Best of luck to you.
Thank you for all of the info you share with us....
My pleasure
I have felt a lot of resistance to your use of packaged frozen veggies - I'm such a purist but this video completely won me over! I'm going to freeze some rice - and since I canned my own beans (that was fun) I will have an easy peasy healthy meal! I love your enthusiasm and your passion.. thank you! Also, I'm addicted to frozen cherries for dessert....just the cherries!
Love, love, love your sauces!!!
I so wish this video was available 3 years ago when I began following a WFPB plan. I was learning as much as I could and feeling overwhelmed. This video should be viewed by everyone beginning this new path. Thank you so very much for taking time to share this valuable information. Keep it simple is the best advice for all those who do not love spending hours in the kitchen.
It’s my pleasure. So happy you enjoyed it.
I gotta get back on track with no oil in my cooking. Also I love tour headband! I love those thick bands to keep my baby hairs out of my face lol. Thanks for the motivational tips!
You are my favorite plant based channel, thank you for all the support and tips. It is so much good information and so helpful. 🤍
Inspiring.. love your videos and the easy tips you give. I’m not plant based but still enjoy those meals as well. Got to grow some of those little potatoes.. looks good
So happy you’re inspired. Thanks for watching 😀
Just found you. What wonderful content. You've inspired me to get back on track with my wfpb diet. You look amazing too. Keep up the good work. Regards Debbie from Auckland, New Zealand
So happy you are enjoying and happy you are here ❤️
Thank you! I have been doing the same thing with the frozen veggies and beans. Nutritional unfortified yeast and low sodium soy sauce are yummy!!!😋
Woohoo!
Hi Tia. I just ordered your Simple Vegan Mama. So excited. My attempt at this lifestyle story is exactly like yours. The only difference is I’m in my 50’s. Lol. Ive been really enjoying your videos but I really think the book is going to be exactly what I need to get this to stick and get this 50lbs. off for good this time. Love and blessings from Ohio. ❤️🙏
Hi there. So happy you’re here and thank you for the support. I hope you enjoy the book.
I have been thinking of changing my keto to plant-based diet. You inspired me. I start liking potatoes now from being scared of touching any carbs.
Very good!!! I love to cook. I enjoy spending time in the kitchen. I also agree 100% that there are times/seasons in my life where you need something simple and easy. I had my 3rd child last year (new baby) and I couldn't spend that amount of time in the kitchen. The summer time is definitely also another time.
Thanks for watching 😀
Love your videos !! And I made your cheese sauce and yeah so simple and tasty and the best I've tried !!
Woohoo! So happy you like it.
This is a very nice video really. Congratulations for your success 🎉
Thank you for the lemonade tip.... completely forgotten about homemade lemonade. May I recommend adding a little frozen grated ginger, it brings it to another level. Wonderful video as usual, you are very inspiring.
That sounds so good! I throw in frozen raspberries into mine, but any berrie would work. Limeade is also delicious, as is cucumber and mint water!
Love this!
I swapped to WFPB early may. It’s almost July. I’m way more content now than back then. The reducing oil has been a little tricky. There has been a lot of rice, beans, (and my new favorite) seaweed pasta. Frozen items are a nice game changer when I’m short on time and it is HOT. Rice and beans are a favorite here ❤️
Great tips! I like to add some of the fruit flavored reduced balsamic vinegars to my water from California Balsalmic. Very refreshing and tasty!
Awesome!
Vegan Momma you are so beautiful and adorable! Thank you for all your informative & fun videos!! I find all your content so helpful. 😇
Tia! I absolutely love your videos. I’ve been vegan for a little over 2 years now, however, I have gained some weight from eating some vegan junk food and processed foods.. your videos have inspired me to go back to my roots! literally lol I have bought your ebook for recipe inspiration to get me back to feeling my best! Thank you for creating these videos and thank you for creating your ebook! Also I had a question. If you ever want a snack what do you usually eat? Whether you want something sweet or you want something salty?! Anyways, thank you for being so inspiring! ♥️
Hi there! So happy you are enjoying everything and feeling inspired 🙌🏻🌱 for weight loss I always snack on fruit!
Great video!!! Thank you 😊
My pleasure
Great advice for nutrition and weight loss! So many people eat foods that are healthy but not necessarily good for losing weight. This video does both and also keeps it simple enough that anyone can do it. Only one suggestion and that is that these recommendations do not need to completely replace the diet you have ... just eat these first and try and fill up on these dishes. You'll eat much less of the high calorie dense food.
You have a beautiful complexion. Thank you for all your videos.
Thank you so much
Glad I clicked on this 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you 😊
Thank you, thank you !
Wow Tia your channel as doubled since I found you !!! Bravo 🎉
THE SAUCE COOKBOOK! YES!
Your cheese sauce is the best! I agree!
I love the convenience of frozen fruit and vegetables, especially the mixed variety. And canned beans can't be beat for a quick dinner. I use an Aroma large volume rice cooker and blend three kinds of rice together. About once a week I make this and freeze the rice flat in sandwich zip lock bags with one cup of rice. So we have rice in the refrigerator, rice in the freezer and rice in the pantry. I have not made a cheese sauce I really like and the other sauces have been okay but the only outstanding sauce I really enjoyed was tomato based sauce, no oil, loaded with veggies. However making it takes a big effort because I water saute a lot of nonstarchy vegetables before I add no salt, no oil canned tomato sauce. Oh, and any recipe or dish with any kind of nuts is off limits as I'm allergic to all nuts, yes, walnuts, pecans, peanuts. I found very low sodium liquid coconut amino liquid today. I didn't realize how much it cost until I checked me receipt. Wow, that was expensive, but low sodium amino, tamari and low sodium soy sauces are still ridiculously high in sodium that I hope the expense is worth it to get this lower sodium product. I have stalled on weight loss. I think my body will eventually get through this stall, as I have made an effort to strengthen and tone and get more activity in any week. Thanks for the video.

Don't you just love how summer vacation from school just takes your already impossible schedule and throws 7 hours of kids into the mix. Ok, I LOVE bananas. I could sit down and eat a whole bunch at once. I always have lots of them on the counter or in the freezer. Smoothies, nice cream, oats, all of that. I cant live without them. The frozen rice is a great idea. I always have prepared rice ready. Ok girl, just wanted to tell you I don't always comment because sometimes I watch from our projector tv in our movie room, but I am always watching your videos. You are amazing and you always bring value to the platform. This video is a very good example. :)
Ahhhhhh 😂 I’m having fun with the kids, but oh so busy. Cherishing every moment.
After a long day of cleaning out & organizing our attic, bone tired I sat down to surf UA-cam and found this episode. I realized I had frozen brown rice, frozen peas and broccoli, some green onions, always fresh garlic, and some left over veg broth in the fridge. I dumped it all into my Le Cruset pot and cooked it all together. I added low sodium soy sauce, a tsp of sesame oil,and some Chinese hot mustard. Everyone raved over it and it took literally 10 minutes. Thank you!!!
Check out True lemon 🍋
True lime and True grapefruit products. No sugar added just dehydrated crystals. Put in water or soda water 🍶 delicious! Been drinking for years. Usually order online because the stuff in the store has additives ie sugar or Stevia which I don't like. Game changer!
Winning video 🌼🌼🌼 thanks 😊
Yay! So happy you enjoyed it
Frozen Veggies and Fruits are just as good for you as fresh. Because they go right to the freezer after being picked. I Love the Bean Juice. Specially in Pintos and Black Beans. :) Great Tips. Thank you. Where do you get his foods at? I Love making black beans with pasta. Love New Potato's.
So happy you enjoyed. I usually get my food from Whole Foods.
Thank you for sharing very nice info I Food Leveling
Can’t wait for saucy vegan mamma to come out 🤗. I’ve been using your southwest sauce.
Woohoo! So happy you’re excited about it.
Enjoy watching your videos n thank you for all the recepies. Question? Did you ever experience tiredness after eating potatoes or rice with veggies in the beginning of your Plant based journey?. I’m re starting eating this way and I’m experiencing this. What can I do?
Love your channel. Random question, how long can an opened box of broth be stored in the refrigerator? Thanks.
I am absolutely obsessed with your cheese sauce 🤩
Woohoo 🙌🏻
Love your ideas.. Bananas awesome, love riced cauliflower to sub rice (since I need more veggies). I also throw potatoes, asparagus and broccoli in the steamer first thing while making morning juice and smoothie. That way I have stuff ready for lunch (I'll make fries, potato waffles or tater tots in the toaster oven! Nutrirional Yeast is MSG though. If you need to use it for a bit, fine, but not a health food per Anthony William.
Awesome, thanks for being here!
The msg in nutritional yeast is naturally occurring, not synthetic and added to it. MSG occurs naturally in many foods, such as tomatoes and cheeses. People around the world have eaten glutamate-rich foods throughout history.
@@HealthyVeganMama Love your channel and positive message. I am detoxing from protein based to plant based and years of excess MSG and sodium. Found you looking for ideas. Wanted to make you aware @ MSG as the info is well hidden.
Naturally occurring glutamine acid is no worry. The additive used in tens of thousands of products builds up deep into the brain tissue and can cause inflammation, swelling, kill brain cells, disrupt electrical impulses, weaken neurotransmitters (hello insomnia), burn out neurons, cause confusion, anxiety and etc.
MSG is well hidden in words like "spices ", glutamine, hydrolyzed, maltodextrin, carrageenan, balsamic vinegar, yeast extract, barley malt, corn starch, wheat starch, modified good starch, gelatin, whey protein, soy protein, soy sauce, broth, bullion, stock, seasonings and more.
Nutritional yeast is a specific glutamine acid only found there - highly irritating to the intestinal lining - can contribute to IBS and Celiac. Can use in moderation if you don't suffer from any conditions or symptoms but you appear to be using a lots in multiple forms. Pg 255 "Medical Medium Revised and Expanded ".
You are adorable ...love your channel...just went WFPB 2 DAYS AGO
Another thing I love about bananas 🍌 is they are economical. I get a huge bunch at Walmart for around $2!
Haven't transitioned to WFPB but trying very hard to add veggies to my life which I've lost my taste for, and not eating red meat. The way I get a ton of veggies in my diet is I cook any and everything in one big pot of broth. Cabbage, spinach, carrots, sweet or regular potatoes, onion, broccoli etc, as well as beans and whatever spices you like. Then I use my immersion blender and wallah you've got a great tasty sauce to put on everything. I keep containers in the freezer.
For my water which I really dont like I always add stevia, but lately I've been brewing a pitcher of green tea and adding the juice of orange, lemon and cukes. Strain the cucumber juice. Really tasty with Stevia.
Please share your skin care regimen! Your complexion is gorgeous and healthy. I’m sure the products you use are as heathy as your food.
Thank you. I’m going to try to included in my next what I eat in a day video
I’m a little confused on the beans. If you add beans to rice, are you doubling the starch side of your plate? Do you need to add extra veggies? Thanks! Love your videos!
Tia please show me the dry cereal that you said you put together snd have often. I didn’t see it in your comments. I would love that. Thanks
Here’s the link www.hungryveganmama.com/blog/whole-foods-plant-based-cereal
Your veggie broth hack 🧡!
frozen fruit and veges are great when stuff is out of season. in the northeast our summer fruits are done by August so go with frozen save money
Proud of you
Great video and suggestions! I just wish Rip's big bowl was Gluten Free since I have Celiac disease.
Amen! God knew what He was doing when He made potatoes.. yes sister
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
He knew what he was doing when he created all plants.
When life gives us lemons, make lemonade! I loved this video!!!!
So happy you enjoy 😊
I typed it in, and you’re right. Potatoes are the most satisfying food on the planet.
😂 yay someone did it. It’s true 🙌🏻
Great video! I like I like 👍🏿
Happy you enjoyed
Can you do a video on quick healthy snacks? I don't want to eat fruit more than once a day and I have that at breakfast time. Thanks
I’ll try
Great video!! Where is your cereal post? Can’t find it.
The link to my blog post should be in the description box 😀
@@HealthyVeganMama thanks!😁
Great video 😘
Thank you
I like making lemon water without sweetener. Yummy
Stevia is really good in homemade lemonade. So is maple syrup.
@@CynthiaAva I can't use fake sugar. I like my lemon water without sugar anyway.
Can I ask - what do your family use when you BBQ? Do you use oil on a BBQ grill? Your video‘s are informative and professional thanks
We don’t bbq too often. But when we do no oil.
I am always so busy I chop my kale, lettuce wash them wash my spring mix and other leafy veggies then spin dry them in a big container I mix them together for diversity and store them in a reusable ziploc bag and they last 3 weeks. Rice, quinoa, couscous I cook and freeze. D rest of my meals r canned beans, pre-made dressings, fruits and other things that does not need cooking. Don't freeze my pasta I just make a batch for the week. During the week I don't cook, don't have the time. This makes eating healthier super easy. My potatoes I cook, I dont freeze just pop in microwave with a cup of water and it's like u just cooked them. All beans am using for the week is out the can, rinsed and stored in a mason jar. So for the gals with no time or just too lazy u can definately live this lifestyle stress and worry free.
What would you recommend for school lunches for the kiddos?
Next video will be on this :)
I add sea moss to my breakfast Smoothie
What spices do u use with ur rice n beans dishes?
I need a video on how to grow those potatoes 🥔 🙏🙏🙏
😬 I think I just got lucky 😂
I love your recipes! I am trying to reduce oils the past 2 weeks and its going well. The only thing bothering me is how to sate my mushrooms when I am making my mushroom stroganoff... if I do sate them in veggie broth, they end up being squishy and soggy. Do you have any tipps for that? Thank you :)
I know this may take longer, but what if you bake them to crisp them up first. Can you do that?
I like the texture I get when I use Derek Sarno’s approach from Wicked Kitchen. Use a heavy pan, let their natural juices come out, and press them with another heavy pot or even a steak press. YUM
I haven't eaten a banana for decades, but, I read that banana peelings are good for the garden, so I started eating them again, and, I timed how long after eating a banana I became hungry again, for me, one banana keep me filling full for 4 hours.
You always look gorgeous!
Thank you ☺️
