Thanks so much for watching my videos & supporting my channel! xx
Becca, I love that you even said in this video "so it can live forever here!" because I've been following your channel for years and we FINALLY just got a Trader Joe's in Little Rock, Arkansas so of course what did I have to look up. ;)
I love when you do grocery haul videos (esp. trader joe's ones!) you inspire me to pick up healthier options next time I go and give me good ideas of stuff I should be trying!
Aw yay!! Make me so happy. Thanks for watching! :)
Honestly from watching your channel I have been in love with nutrition lately and really check the ingredients of things I buy! Love you!
Makes me so happy Sarah!! Thanks for watching!! :)
I LOVE these videos. Anytime I start to go crazy trying to figure out what kind of "diet" I need to follow to lose weight (KETO? WEIGHT WATCHERS? PALEO?) I come back to your channel and it brings me back down to earth and sanity LOL Just eat what makes me feel good and fuels my activity, the weight loss will come when my body feels good and healthy!
Michele Borucki yes I agree! Sometimes I start going down that road then I realize no no no this is my body I need to listen to it
Love TJ's shopping! Always fun looking in other people's carts...so this video is awesome.
Yay I seriously LOVE your grocery hauls! They are always so inspiring and help me find new creative meals :)
Aw yay so glad to hear it Noelle!! Thanks for watching!
I discovered your channel months ago and i still love your videos as much! Keep up the good work girl, you're doing so great.
Fortunately there are youtubers like you who know what they're talking about, so that we can educate ourselves "in safety" i'd say :)
For the bread, i'm moroccan actually, and most of the time we make our own :) So here's the recipe :
I don't have the mesuarments, we usually eyeball it
You mix whole wheat flour with all purpose flour (except if you wanna use whole wheat flour only but i'd suggest to put a lil bit of white flour, it gives it a nice texture too), salt and baker's yeast, then little by little you start inconporating warm (NOT HOT) water, you really wanna add it progressively, while mixing it all together (it would be easier if you have a robot i'd suggest you to use it but you can also do it with your hands)
Then you sprinkle flour generously on a surface, take the dough with your hands and knead it reaaallly really fine. Tip : sprinkle a lil bit of flour here in there (on the dough), then shape it into cirlces, cover them with a towel and let them rise : you wanna have a look at them every thirthy minutes, and you wanna be patient girl, they have to riiise :)
Once they do, put them in the oven and keep an eye on them!
VOILA! i'm sorry if you struggle following the instructions, i usually speak french :/
I love when you post these videos! Plus, this basically planned out my lunch/dinners for next week!
I absolutely loved this video!!!!! YAY thank you Becca :)) I'll definitely be getting my trader Joe's shoppin on after this video :) YOU'RE THE BEST!!
Yes I love these kinda of videos because you inspire me to make small changes to how me and my family eat thank you Becca!! 😘
Aw yay!! Thanks for watching Cynthia :)
I LOVE TRADER JOES. I saw those dark chocolate almonds and it reminded me of you! Plus, great song at the end. i love it
Haha yes!!! TJ's and those chocolate covered almond are the bomb!
I just recently discovered your channel and I am OBSESSED! I love all your content! My fiance and I just recently completed the WHOLE 30 program and have completely transformed our eating and lifestyle and your channel has been so helpful.
What do you think about meal replacement shakes? I don’t remember if I already asked you that awhile back or not.
*I only wish I had a Trader Joe's near me! Is anyone else in the same boat?*
theFitty yes! We don't have anything like this in England :(
It might be called something else near you. It was originally Aldi's started by two brothers, then they had a disagreement and split it in half, one half remained Aldi and I forgot what the other half was called in Europe but in America it's called trader Joe's. You can look it up though!
Emma Cooper thanks Emma! Unfortunately I'm in Canada and we don't have a Trader Joe's at all under any sort of name.
I live in northern Vermont - no Trader Joe's, but whenever I go to Burlington (2 hours away) I always shop there!
So interesting! I never knew that. One of my daughters lives near an Aldi's. She says it is pretty good. Thanks for the info!
Becca I don't know what it is, but YOU'RE GLOWING GUUURL!
Absolutely adore you Becca! Thanks for another great video!
Your red hat looks so cute on you😍🤗
Aw thank you Alaina!!
Spindrift is my absolute favorite!! I think the grapefruit flavor is the best one!
Oooh good to know!! I def want to try all the flavors :)
spaghetti sqaush and turkey meatballs is a favorite in my house! Especially in fall!
Ahh yes! Such a great go-to!! It's always on repeat in the fall & winter for us haha
You are so freakin pretty!! Love your grocery hauls; also really excited to try the spaghetti squash recipe! Thanks so much for sharing 💗
Aw thanks Rachael!! And def give it a try!! So easy & so good!
Thanks for sharing how to cook the spaghetti squash! 😉 Def gonna be trying that out!!
Yes def try it!! It's sooo easy!
Can you please make the video on the squash turkey w/ marinara sauce? I am a beginner in kitchen very intimitated but I wan to learn to cook badly! I LOVE when you post easy quick dinner week night ideas! Some people (like myself) just need a visual you know? Thank you so much in advance!
I may post how I do it on my blog! But for now I linked a post on how to cook spaghetti squash in the description box! xx
Becca could you do a video on veganism? I know you have done a video in the past talking about it but could you maybe go a little more in depth? Answering questions like, do we need to eat meat for certain proteins we can’t get from veggies or fruits, and where are the best places to buy meat from. Or also what do we need to be aware of when buying meat. I love your videos so much and they are so helpful whenever I go to the grocery store or out to eat. If you could do a video like this down the road that would be amazing. Thanks Becca!
love your videos love to try new things as well, i will def try the siggi yogurt and dark chocolate almonds soon. what are your thoughts/inspo on tofu. im allergic to eggs so breakfast can be tricky for me.
My boys and I just did a Traders Joe haul too! Im in awe of the Spaghetti Squash price. Def, a staple in our house. Enjoy!
Yes it's the best!!! We have it on repeat in the fall & winter! :)
I use a bread maker because it’s the easiest way. And it’s fresh and the best!
Okay I think I just need to get one lol that's what everyone's saying!! Thanks Kaitlyn!
You should try the fire roasted diced tomatoes for chili, they give that extra smoky flavor!! It tastes so so good!
Thanks for sharing your haul with us! I was wondering if you have any tips for husbands that are also very active and trying to gain weight? My husband is very active and has a hard time keeping weight on his frame. He’s tall and very slender. We too are healthy eaters and consuming junk just to boost calorie intake isn’t something we want to do. Thanks!!
Hi Becca! Love your videos. You’re such a great source of healthy inspiration ❤️ I was wondering if you would consider doing a video on juice - maybe like “the skinny on” - particularly I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on green juices (and store bought vs. homemade juice). Should we be incorporating those into our diets? Why/why not? Is it okay to consume so many calories without any fiber? Is it too much sugar? Does the nutrient density make up for it? Thanks x
Hey girl! I've already done it ;) ua-cam.com/video/qEk2-tN_tTw/v-deo.html
I wish I had a trader joe's closer to me - everyone loves it
Megan Simms I have to drive an hour and a half for the nearest one. So worth it though it's my favorite grocery store!
Oh man hopefully they'll put one near you soon! TJ's is the best!
Do you have a video on how you do your hair? :)
Love your videos!! Please do more recipe videos. I’m trying to eat more plant based so seeing those kinda of videos would be awesome :)
Awesome thanks for watching Celina!
Could you do a video on your homemade tomato sauce!?
I will post the recipe on my blog soon! xx
Love grocery hauls! Wegmans and Trader Joe’s are my favorite grocery store too. I would love to see a video on spaghetti squash. Someone else asked for your spaghetti sauce recipe and I would like to se that as well. Big restriction for me as far as recipes go is that my husband is allergic to peppers. So no chili, or tacos for us. :(
Yes they're the best!! I will be sharing the spaghetti sauce on my blog soon! xx
Hey Becca ! I was just wondering what your opinion on the jar Marinara sauces from Trader Joe's is ? I love them, especially the one you mentioned in the video. But can you recommend it health wise ?
Can you make a video/blog post on making your own marinara sauce?? Great video!
You're such an inspiration love you!!!!❤️❤️
Aw thank you!! xx
What are your thoughts on consuming lean ground beef?
WAS SO EXCITED TO HEAR A WEGMANS SHOUTOUT! :D
Great haul and the price was amazing.
Hey becca what makeup do you wear?
Can you do one of your recipe videos showing us how you make your cauliflower
Becca do you ever shop at aldi's? Wondering your thoughts on their products. Also do you have an opinion on farm fresh eggs?
If there was one near me I would def check it out! And do you mean literally going to a farm to buy eggs? Or the term 'farm fresh eggs' on cartons?
Becca Bristow i guess going to the farm to get eggs or individuals who sell them. I surprisingly know a few people who have like 20 chickens and they do sell the eggs and i was wondering health wise what your opinion is.
I make my bread with a bread maker and it always comes out perfect.
Can you make a video with the quinoa chili recipe!?
I linked the recipe in the description box! xx
I love grocery hauls but I mainly clicked on this because your hair is beautiful! Is that just using a curling iron or wand?
I finally bought the almonds you keep recommending... and I ate the whole thing in the past two days lmao
Can you please show us how you make your own marinara sauce 😊‼️
It'll be on my blog next week! :) beccabristow.com
Get a bread machine! Seriously. It's so easy you just dump your ingredients in there and let it go for a few hours. Lots of recipes will work just as well in the bread machine (we also use it to knead homemade pizza dough). My husband makes fresh bread with it almost every week and it's SO good (we have a sourdough starter so we basically have to make it every week, but I'm definitely not complaining!)
Ugh so jealous you have a sourdough starter!! I tried so hard to make one a few months ago and it was a fail lol but I need to try again. But I will def look into a bread machine, thanks!!
It's amazing! Better to buy the starter so the process of keeping it alive is just maintenance. We got ours from King Arthur Flour (my parents live near their flagship bakery up in VT but I think you can order one from their online shop as well).
exactly! it's a life savior !
Love your channel. New subscriber. Your hair is beautiful! : ) n Trader Jos is life!
Aw yay!! Welcome! And yes TJ's is the bomb!!
So jealous. The nearest Trader Joe's is an hour and a half away from me but I still drive up there once a month and stock up, so worth it!
Oh it's def worth it!! I would so the same thing! Lol can't beat their prices
I simply cannot get over how adorable you look in that baseball cap! GOALS!
Thank you for all of the informative videos! May I ask you one question about vitamin A? ^ Since I was tracking my daily micronutrients on cronometer, I found that I was taking more than 50000 IU of the vitamin A daily(recommended 3500IU). Based on 200g of spinach and 100g of pumpkin or carrots contains more than 10000 IU respectively, which seems like a normal intake but is seen as toxic in terms of the vitamin A recommendation ... I am so confused, Plz help to clear it! Thank you sooooo! much
Loved this video
Thank you for sharing the meals as well I get lost as far as meals
If your tomato paste gets moldy in the fridge because you don't use it at once, pour it into an ice container and then, into a small ziplock bag. Since I do this, I don't throw out the tomato paste.
I use the whole can when I make chili, but that's good to know!! Thanks Silvia!
Where are your cute camo pants from?
Got them from Nordstrom rack!!
Fantastic Video, Enjoyed! :)👍👍💯❤
Dud you ever get your sourdough bread recipe down?
Nice haul :) !!
Thanks for watching! xx
Hi! New subscriber here. Just discovered your channel and it's very helpful. Can you share your recipe for your own home made marinara sauce? Thanks!
Your hair!!!! Gorgeous
Girl! We shop at the same Trader Joe’s!!
No way!!!!
yes! honestly one of my favorite trader joes after moving to that area too
Yummmmmm!
Love tjs!!
Love your simple hauls. The spaghetti squash meal is one of my favs, but I use the precooked lentils in the produce section from TJ. Also, you must try Rao’s arrabbiata sauce! The best jarred sauce with reasonable sodium and no added sugar.
Oh - and TJ just added a kale pesto as a new product near the pizza dough! It’s awesome.
Ahh yes I need to try Rao's!! And omg kale pesto??? Def going back to get that haha thanks girl!
love your hauls :) i'm so back and forth with the ground turkey from TJs - i love that it's so cheap but i usually try to buy only organic. however, it does say "no hormones or pesicides added"... doesn't that essentially mean it's organic? ugh #health
I know I'm the same girl! I typically only like to buy organic meats but ya know, balance I guess. And haha no technically that doesn't mean it's organic, but it's certainly better than generic! :)
Have u looked up Laura In the kitchen on youtube?? She has several bread recipes on there
i love spaghetti squash so much oh my goodness. i'm not a huge fan of the tj almonds but the good thing is they're yummy enough to satisfy my sweet tooth but not so good i wanna eat the whole box lol
Yes sooo good!!
That pesto & chicken sausage recipe is one of our favorites! Once you get that pesto...;) Love your hat, too! I am a hoarder of baseball hats!
Ahh wish I was at the game tonight let’s go redskins!!!!
Haha it was a good game! ;)
Becca Bristow yes it was I will take the L and still be proud of my team lol
Awe you look so pretty in that hat! (And always 😉)
Aw thank you Faith!!
You should check out the Natural Born Feeder UA-cam channel. The recipes are easy and healthy from a fitness/food blogger. The Food Medic's channel also has good recipes
Wegmans 💕💕
Haha 😂 that happens to me all the time. I always forget one thing at the groceries... so aggravating!! Also, if you like almond bread.. this is a really great recipe on my channel: ua-cam.com/video/AKD5RDoYVM4/v-deo.html. I really love pumpernickel Rye bread ,as well, so delicious with avocado and eggs( just something different) :
goo.gl/JLafKG
Ugh happens every time lol and thank you for sharing those!
Are your lashes real??? Random I know. But I'm so jealous 😬
Are you worried about GMO's?
Really random but just so you know I'm a HUGE fan of that sparkling water brand, but that orange mango flavor is by far the worst one (in my opinion) so if you don't like it you should definitely try the others. All of the other flavors are the best sparkling water I have ever tried! PS love your videos!!
Hahaha that's good to know!! I will def try all the flavors :) Thanks Faith!
i like that you mentioned getting pastured eggs but you should really point out how "vegetarian fed chickens" are bad. not sure when companies started labeling eggs and chicken as such as if it was healthy. chickens are omnivores people.
Becca do you live in New York ? I'm from Upstate NY
I live in DE!
@cleaneatinggoddess on instagram! Her “healthiest bread” is amazing!! Put the Trader Joe’s everything but the bagel on top & you’re good to go!!
Love your videos & LOVE trader joe's... but all those veggies in extra plastic makes me so sad :(
You should definitely check out kingarthurflour.com for bread recipes. They have a no knead one and it comes out really nice.
Oh amazing!! Thanks Laraib!
Oh no! Make videos of your dishes!!! Please 🙏
Wheat belly...
You should go off all dairy. You sound like you have sinus issues, sounds plugged when you talking. When I went off dairy my nasal drip stopped. Just thought I'd let you know.
