I don't think I've ever commented on one of your videos before, but it is my Sunday morning ritual to watch your videos while I drink my coffee or tea. I love how relaxing they are! I also love how you balance a whole food vegan diet while still also enjoying processed foods occasionally. It's super realistic and gives me a lot of inspiration to actually get to the store and start meal prepping on Sunday! To respond to your question, I think they should just label foods as "vegan meatballs" or whatever else they are veganizing. I know that a lot of companies who produce meat products are pushing back against that because they fear they will somehow have meat consumers buy vegan products by accident instead of the original product. But vegan meatballs sounds better than veggie balls 😂
It's my Sunday morning ritual too 🥰
I LOVE this, thank you! First of all, thank you for being here, and for taking the time to comment and let me know that my videos have become a part of your Sunday morning routine. That honestly makes me so happy 😊 And I agree about the term veggie balls lol That made me laugh. It's also so good to hear that my videos give you some ideas for meal prepping and making more homemade meals throughout the week. That's really my biggest passion, helping to make home cooking more practical and enjoyable. It lights me up to hear that the recipes I share are helpful in that way. Thanks for letting me know! I hope you have a great rest of your Sunday and a happy week ahead. Sending you love ❤️
I'm in@@NikkiVegan
gosh, i’ve said it before but the thought and time you put into your videos does not go unnoticed!!! i love when you include ideas with your grocery hauls, refer to your old recipes we may have forgotten about and give little tips and tricks. also, I love those Nugo bars when i need a quick protein fix on the go-taste like candy bars!
I love this style of video! I go back and watch your old grocery haul/meal idea videos all the time! You're the best! I hope you have a great day and thank you - as always 🤩
Hey Nancy! Thanks for letting me know that you go back and watch my grocery hauls.That made me so happy to hear 😊 I'm really glad you like those kinds of videos and I definitely want to start making more of them in the future. Hope you have a great day too! Sending you love ❤️
I love this style of video too! I struggle so much finding ideas to go with my ingredients and hate when I waste something because I don’t use it🥲
Just check the sides of the root ball for the plant! Shimmy it out of the pot and if the roots are circled around the sides then it is asking for a new pot and more soil. The new leaves are babies 😊
Thank you for sharing images of the city! I miss it!! But I agree about feeling icky from it. The craziest thing to me was my nose having black stuff in it at the end of the day 😢
haha so true! The city is great but pretty dirty lol And that's good to know, thank you! I haven't done that so I'll check it out today. Thank you so much 😊
I like when you add the meal ideas with the grocery haul! Thanks for bringing that back 👏🏻
Yay I’m so glad you like my grocery hauls! Thanks for letting me know you’re excited about them 🤗🤗 Where do you like to grocery shop?
Love this video❤❤❤
Happy Sunday! Great video😊
Thank you! Hope you have a great week ❤️❤️
Love this vlog.. so peaceful ❤❤
Thank you! I’m so glad you liked it and found it cozy to watch ❤️❤️
Im soooo happy when i see you on my feed❤❤❤. You are my inspiration and i cant be thankful enough to you xx
Thank you Christina! I feel the same way about you being here. So grateful that you like my videos!! Thank you so much 🥰🥰❤️❤️
@@NikkiVegan awwwwww that made my day. Thanks so much xxxx
All the recipes looked so good. Another excellent video!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it 🤗 Hope you have a great rest of your Sunday!
Obsessed with the Nugo bars, bitchin sauce, and the Catalina crunch cereal!! Really love that you gave recipe ideas after grocery shopping, so helpful. I think they market vegan food that way to appeal to non vegans, but it actually sets them up for failure. I’ve had so many non vegans not like a product like those meatballs, and then not want to try anymore vegan food.
I hate when that happens! Like they have one not-so-good vegan meal and they’re turned off entirely. That’s why I’m always trying to create tasty recipes that people can share with others, even like cookies or something. Sharing good food is such a powerful way to open people’s minds but like you said, the opposite can also be true sometimes. I’m glad you liked the grocery haul with meal ideas. That’s good to know! Thank you 🥰🥰 Hope you have a great day! ☀️❤️
Nikki - such a great vlog I always love your recipes. I am not always able to find the exact items in your recipes, however, you do such a great job describing why you choose certain things. (I am on the east coast of Canada) - that it makes it easier to find a match in my local stores. Thanks for always giving us delicious ideas, new things and ways to try things. (I also love seeing all of the views and places in NY. ) - Sonia 😻💖
That's really great feedback Sonia, thank you so much for letting me know! I know it can be tricky to find the exact same items, so I'm glad that it's useful to know why certain ingredients are used so you can easily make swaps where needed. This comment made me really happy, thank you! I hope you have a wonderful day ❤
Everything looks delicious! And I always, always love a good ol' grocery haul ☺️
Thank you! I’m happy to hear you like grocery hauls. That’s good to know 🥰 Hope you have a good day today!
Great vlog, lovely to see NY, you have great places to eat. Lots of meal prep inspiration. Have a lovely day Nikki, much love from Spain ❤
Thank you! Sending you love as well! Hope you’re having a good day ☀️ I’m really glad you liked the NYC clips. It’s getting so pretty here now that it’s spring. Pink flowers and everything slowwwwly coming back to life lol
Thanks for bring back your grocery hauls! I’ve always used your hauls for a little inspiration when I’m planning my weekly food prep (btw I started food prepping because of your video 5 years ago).❤
Wow that’s amazing to hear! Thank you Toni 🥰🥰❤️❤️ I’m so glad you like my grocery hauls and find them helpful because I really like making them. Thanks for letting me know!
Hey, it sounds like your plant might be ready to branch out on its own! 🌱 Sometimes when they start sprouting new leaves like that, they're looking for more space to thrive. Checking Google is a smart move, but also consider if the roots are crowded. Excited for your grocery haul and the meal ideas to come! 🥔🍝 And that jewelry cleaning tip sounds like a gem-can't wait to learn about it! 💍✨
Great video as always
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it 🥰❤️
@@NikkiVegan your videos are always just great. And you make me feel so confident in the kitchen because I am not that confident in the kitchen but when I see your videos it makes me feel like I can do anything in the kitchen so thank you for that ❤️
Pizza salad sounds delicious. I gotta make that. I always add fruit to my cereal too. I found that the gardein meatballs have the best flavor. I used to make really good turkey meatballs so that's the closest for me. I remember when I got my ring sized I had a bandaid on it for awhile before it could be size 😅
Hi Nikki! I love ALL of your videos. They’re always so fun to watch. Your pizza cous cous salad looks very delicious 😋. Thank you!! ❤
Thanks Diane!! That’s so nice to hear 🥰🥰 I hope you enjoy this salad recipe. Let me know what you think if you give it a try!
@@NikkiVegan I definitely will!! 🤗
I call all my meals either vegan or plant based, but the ones that are from scratch I refer as whole food plant based or vegan. That's what works for me anyway. Love this channel a d the content you provide Nikki 😊
I make a cut in the date and add Santa Cruz peanut butter...melt vegan chocolate hips and top it with chopped peanuts then put in the fridge. Sooo good.
Yum!! I do that too and I love the texture of a whole stuffed date but this was fun to try. I want to make a white chocolate version with almond butter or tahini and chopped pistachios one day! I think that would be really good 🤗🤗
I’m making the creamy sun-dried tomato pasta while watching this. One of our family’s favorites!
Ah! That’s so cool 🤗🤗 This made me so happy. I hope you enjoyed it ❤️❤️
Working ER registration desk this Sunday. Watching this on my break. XO Davita
Thanks for hanging out with me on your lunch break Davita! Hope you have a great day ❤️❤️
I ❤ peanut butter on waffles I usually sprinkle cinnamon & lil brwn sugar on top, only in NY does the market look like the stock exhange😄,, I think vegan meals shld be in a class of their own, ur right sometimes creating the classics fall short, like spaghetti & meat balls are not the same for me the meat is needed to enrich the sauce, so I make a sun-dried 🍅 pesto instead & it's great!
Ok yum, adding brown sugar on top sounds so good! I need to try that! Thanks for the tip 🤗 I see what you mean about calling vegan meats something else. I think it's confusing when they're some that are SO similar to meat taste/texture-wise like Beyond Meat, but then there's another category that are veggie-based and so they're something different. What should those be called? 🤔 These are the things I wonder about...lol Anyway, hope you have a wonderful Sunday! Thanks for being here ❤️
First time commenter 🎉. Thank you for all your wonderful videos. To me the term vegan refers to lifestyle, so the food can be less healthy and more processed, as long as there are no animal, animal by-products and does not exploit animals. Plant based in my mind is more whole and minimally processed foods/meals though not everything needs to be cooked from scratch, eg Mary’s crackers or Ezekiel breads. Hope this makes sense.
I always repot my plants🪴when I notice their roots are starting to grow out of the bottom of their current container...the leaves pushing up in the soil removed from the mama means she's making babies ☺she's healthy and thriving 💚
Pizza salad?? I'm intrigued!!
So good! Hope you enjoy this recipe 🙌🙌
I love these grocery hauls, you always have such great ideas! I know what you mean about the different vegan meals. Do you have an Aldi near you? They have really decent vegan meatballs in two flavor profiles, the Italian style is perfect for spaghetti and meatballs!
Thank you! That’s good to know. I think there’s an Aldi around here but I’ll look and see where bc we don’t have a car. And thanks for letting me know that you like grocery hauls! That makes me so happy 🤗 Is Aldi your favorite grocery store? If so what should I look for there?
@@NikkiVegan I love Aldi but it can be hit or miss and definitely not a one stop shop. They used to have more vegan frozen options but now it’s mostly temporary “Aldi Finds” they definitely have good prices for what they do have…tofu and plant milk, pantry staples. The weekly home goods are sometimes a hit too. If it’s not far for you, check out the weekly flier online to see what they might have of interest to make it worth the trip! I think TJ’s is still my fav!
Another busy Sunday in the ER ! But im tuned in
Me too! But I work the ER registration desk.
Thanks for being here Erica❤️❤️ sending you love!
I use to get them all the time... those packages are so expensive and it'd like one person mean ... I would pretty much mash them and use as *ground beef* goes along way. Also it's best to just make it bulk yourself and save ALOT OF MONEY 💰 🤑... AS for vegan foods it's best to just stick with whole foods and that's the whole point of being vegan ... I prefer using the word **plant based ** says it all ❤
I agree with your point on foods that do not taste like the meat version I think they definitely still do have their place. I personally prefer veggie burgers over impossible and beyond because I never liked the taste of beef before I went vegan. I also love buffalo cauliflower even though it doesn’t taste like chicken wings because it tastes amazing in its own way.
I totally get that! That’s how I feel a lot of the time. The veggie version is different but so good! I feel that way about veggie sushi lol I’ve had great “fancy” vegan sushi and I still prefer simple avocado rolls or cucumber rolls the best. Same with veggie burgers most of the time. It’s a separate category but idk what to call it lol
My favorite meals are those that were created vegan in the first place, usually cultural dishes that with minor swaps (ie oil for gee) are the same as they were before meat became so easy to come by. The problem is they usually take a lot of time and effort to prepare.
Nicholas and I talk about that all the time! There are so many cuisines that are very vegan friendly, like you said with just a few swaps. I love when that’s the case because they tend to be so flavorful and very plant forward which is so nice 🌿 agreed about the prep time though lol
I call it spaghetti and plantbasedmeatballs, plantbasedmeatloaf etc. etc. etc. because really the word "meat" can describe things, other than just an animal product. Lol, I can actually see the grime of the city in the videos.
Your ring is simply gorgeous! 💍
Thank you so much! And yes that’s such a good point. Plantbased vs meat is a great distinction because meat doesn’t have to be animal based. I like that
I agree with the two types of vegan "meats". I've tried the Heidi meatballs and will never buy them again, I'd rather treat myself to impossible meatballs now and then.
Your snake plant has babies ❤❤❤
So cool! Should I replant them separately or just let it be? Scared to hurt it
❤❤
Thanks Melissa ❤️❤️ Happy Sunday to you!
❤❤❤.
Sending you love too ❤️❤️
One thing I know about your plant is….water when dry. 👍
Haha same! But even that confuses me because some people say don’t overwater or water once a week so like how dry are we talking? lol 😂
IMO your plant is trying to take up more space it wants to be re-pottted eventually, but it can go a while before it really needs it, Plants do not require fast action of any kind.
Ok that’s really good to know! Thank you ❤️❤️ I’ve always been a little scared to repot a plant because I don’t want to hurt it or break the roots somehow 😬
your plant is having a baby! you can dig it up, cut it and plant it in another pot :)
Ah I’m scared to hurt it lol I’ll try my best 😬
@@NikkiVegan awh don’t worry! i’ve done it before with the same plant as yours and it went fine no issues! in fact the baby is actually doing better than the mum now LOL
For two years, I have been accumulating vegan, raw and plant based recipes. Unfortunately, I've been gravitating towards cooked vegan and plant based recipes which are sometimes less healthy than raw unprocessed foods. There is quite a difference between vegan, raw, and plant based foods.
Vegans are meatless meals with fruits and vegetables cooked in plant oils, faux meats, sugar, salt, and highly processed foods. While Plant Based foods are meatless mostly cooked and raw plants with minimal oils, sugar, and salt. Plant based Raw foods are raw fruits and vegetables.
My goal is to consume plant based and raw meals with high proteins. Recipes must be totally delicious or it will sit in my refrigerator and spoil. 😣 I'm always looking and trying new recipes that are delicious and nutrient dense.
There is no vegan diet: Any diet void of animal foods is vegan compliant. It can have processed foods, minimally processed foods, raw plant foods, or a combination of them. The idea that "vegan" foods all have oil, salt, sugar, and anologue products (also varied in their composition) is not factual and I don't know where it comes from. Well, I do: The anti-vegan social media sphere. "Plant-based" means vegan-by-mouth. A diet of mostly plant foods with some animals foods already has a name: Omnivorous. "Raw foods" can mean anything from 80/10/10 to a raw "carnivore" diet. There is a lot of confusion because "vegan" and "plant-based" are used interchangeably by everyone to describe what they do not contain--animal foods--but fail to describe what they _do_ contain. I hope my comment helps.
I hear you and I also love eating some raw fruits in veggies in their most simple form, but some foods like spinach and tomatoes actually develop a different nutrient profile when cooked so it’s not always that raw is better than cooked, it’s just different. I would say the most important thing is to listen to your body and not stress too much about whether food is raw or cooked. Eating is about also pleasure and enjoyment, and that’s important too. I’m not an expert but I have personally seen a lot of benefits from just eating the foods I enjoy eating and limiting “rules” and stress around meals as much as possible. Life is meant to be enjoyed 🌼🌿❤️☀️
I have been to that Danish coffee house and I did not know they had vegan pasty. Thanks for the info.
Nice! I’m so glad this was helpful! They change the vegan options from time to time but it was pretty good. I also found their IG was really helpful. I dmed them and asked for vegan options and they got back to me within a day. What did you think of the coffee shop when you went?
It’s a real nice coffee shop and the coffee is great. There are a lot of coffee shops here in NY but nothing like this place.
Personally I don't care to use products that look just like meat, / For instance my mom purchased for me a pkg of Beyond ground "beef" , and at first I thought ,..YAY!! I can make a dish called ( Picadillo) that I loved as a child and later made it a gazillion of times for my sons, ☝️ but it looked so much like the real meat that I couldn't enjoy it, and sorry but I threw it out. // That's just me being silly I guess.
I am the same!! I hate the taste of all meat/poultry/fish/seafood and that’s why I stopped eating it all!!
yes, to me certain " Vegan meat products look to much in color to the real meat, and I just couldn't get past that" 😅
