    You can spout the lentils and chick peas to increase the nutritional value. After you soak them, strain them in a colander and then rinse twice a day until they get tails. In the summer that should only take 2-3 days. You can also dehydrate the sprouted lentils or chickpeas to preserve if you have too much. You can make a raw hummus out of the sprouted chickpeas, as well, to get an extra meal or two, or to get a nice snack out of them.

    OMG I had an ah-ha moment when watching this video. Usually I'll look for a recipe and then go out and buy the ingredients. No wonder it costs so much when it comes time to pay. Watching you shopping and choosing the most affordable fruits and veg was the ah-ha moment. Start with the produce and then formulate a recipe. Thanks for the wonderful video. I too am a fellow Ontario resident. :)

    Fellow UA-camr Eva Loves Raw makes an excellent faux tuna salad with sunflower seeds. Soak the seeds overnight in water. Next day, blend celery, carrots, and onion. The add the soaked sunflower seeds and blend again. Makes a kind of pate. Blend in dulse or kelp, or nori to get the sea flavor. Maybe even add a little Old Bay seasoning. I make a delicious faux tuna salad sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes on whole grain bread. Can be used on a raw wrap also.

    I love that you show what can be bought, what can be made, and that you can find good deals on raw foods! With a menu like this, I believe supplements, legumes, things like that, are required for a full nutritional value, so I am glad you mentioned them! Eating just the fruits and veggies would not be enough.

    Gillian thank you so much for making this video. My husband and I have been vegans for 26 days now. A few days ago I saw your interview with Jacqui Waters and I was so inspired to try raw vegan. My husband being vegan is still kind of blowing my mind. He is a big guy who loved steak (huge steaks mind you). But we both watched What the Health and then The Game Changers and it just clicked for us. All in. But I'm having some biome issues which are a lifetime thing really. I was hopeful that being a vegan would help. I understand what Jacqui was saying about this being a long road of deconstruction first and I'm ready for that. I'm almost 62 so I've been constructing this crooked house for a loooong time. =) I'm cool with taking it down first to rebuild. So now, I'm thinking of going raw vegan, at least for most of the day. For the past few weeks I was kind of overwhelmed by all the choices and recipes and going crosseyed trying to build a meal plan. And spending waaaay too much on all the meals I wanted to try! So finding your video, I'm literally saying out loud, "Oh thank God. What a great idea!" Two staple meals! So much easier. I plan to watch everything you ever recorded because I have a lot to learn. Thank you so much for your videos. I really appreciate the time and effort you put in to produce the excellence you create. Very grateful! Oh also I'm on IG @tizzlovesrowdy doing a new recipe a day and today I'll be mentioning this video. I'm calling this year's 100dayproject "an accidental comedy" because man. SO many mistakes. Learning experiences. XD ♥

    Great info! 🤩 What a cool market! 👍🏼 I totally agree with the idea of two staple meals for the week - makes it doable and affordable! 💥 Mae is adorable and such a good helper! 😉 In my experience, that is not enough fruit for a week. I eat 1-2 mangoes + 2 bananas for my breakfast bowl *each morning.* Similar amounts in my fruit bowl for supper *every day.* 🥭🍌 I appreciated your tips on the lentils and chickpeas! After my digestion improves, I can’t wait to try that! (Have you tried sprouting the lentils and chickpeas? I believe they are even more alive and tasty sprouted!) 😋 Well done, Gillian! ✨🤩✨

      Hi Paula !! Thanks for watching ♥️
      No, I haven't fully sprouted them before...this method of soaking is just so simple and easy so for now I do that. But I definitely will fully sprout them one day. I do love the taste of them like this though they have a perfect crunch 👌 🤩
      Have a lovely day 🥭

Those tomatoes would be at least 7 dollars here....prices are crazy. I would be interested to you make the veggie pasta some time. Blessings from the great white north!!

    Unfortunately You have to Sprout chickpeas or any beans For 4-5 days minimum. Do your Research on it. If you're fighting any health issues or disease It would be the worst mistake to eat raw chickpeas or beans that have been soaked for such a short period of only 8 hours. Other than that great vid though. 😀

      Incorrect! Not true for some of them you do NOT and lentils and chickpeas you don't. Please do your research and watch this video! ua-cam.com/video/l1-xQ_Ktvws/v-deo.html

    Unfortunately where I live in southern Western Australia there are no cheap places to buy stuff. The one farmers market is as, if not more, expensive that the supermarkets which are very pricey. And the weather/our section isn’t too conducive to growing stuff. All my last lot of lettuce and coriander went to seed before forming anything worthwhile. Makes being healthy very difficult.😢

    Hey Gillian,
    1/ what do you decide to buy organic and what not? ...
    2/Do you pay attention on avoiding GMO products?
    3/ We're almost 100% raw for years now ... but we struggle with proteins and yes we eat soaked lentils.
    And do you know how your body can absorb it more easily
    How do you solve this protein-issue without using protein powders yourself?
    4/You are talking about supplements? Which and why?
    *
    5/ About your recipe preparations also a question as we avoid garlic and onion ... in this pesto, without the garlic it's tasty still. Do you have an idea for something to replace it?
    Thanks

      Yes, us too, organic is a ridiculous price n keeps us broke too! We are in S tennessee.
      In case the dollar goes bust we bought a bunch of canned organic vegys just in case. We have a few potted herbs but it’s not enough. There may be no fresh fruits n vegys.
      Or too much to afford.
      We believe the Bible and see we will be going through some hard times,
