At 33 wks pregnant & only 2 months to go u look absolutely beautiful & amazing!! Loving all your different varieties of meals & deserts from your cookbook. Bowie is certainly growing up way to quick,but so very Beautiful with it to. Such a Beautiful inspiring blessed family🙏🥰❤️

[@ericadancewithme]

1m40s in & seeing Bowie upset over the dessert cookies had me laughing cause my toddler today had a meltdown over the fact that I peeled his banana & broke it in half for him where he thereafter proceeded to throw said half banana at various cupboards & walls of the kitchen because he wanted it whole. Not peeled or broken. Lol. Toddlers. Love you guys!

[@Tcfodiaries]

I honestly get so happy when I see a new video from you Ellie! The peanut curry looks so yummy, perfect for a rainy day in the uk like today! ❤️❤️

[@ElsasWholesomeLife]

Aw thank you 🥰

[@Jasmine-hh3kt]

Life with a 2 yr old 😄 Love a 2-in-1 recipe. Slow cookers are the best. I bought mine when I was a SAHM with a toddler and newborn. It was a lifesaver being able to get dinner started in the morning. That sane slow cooker is still going strong but my newborn and toddler are 17 & 19 😊 Love your new book. We try to eat vego meals 3-4 nights a week so it’s handy to have simple recipes to try out.

[@tamzart7974]

You are looking so beautiful Ellie thankyou for sharing your time with us. I do look forward to your weekly videos and now keeping up with your baby girl soon to be making her debut into this world (very exciting)!!!. Make sure you are getting enough rest and thank you for being here. Much Love to you and your beautiful family 🥰🤗❤

[@annaliesebeauchamp7152]

I too am 33 weeks + 5 days and can absolutely relate to the baby brain (or as you call it pregnancy brain). I’m glad my little man is only 1.5 years old so he can’t pick up on my word/sentence mistakes either 🥰🥰 loved this vlog xx

[@camilastanzione]

Loveee the ideas, everything looks so good! ❤ always looking forward to your videos Ellie! hugs from Argentina

[@alizastrock4841]

NEED that Massaman stat! such a yummy day, thanks for sharing and can’t wait for the new TWS drop 😍🫶🏼

[@nikkifangaiuiha6081]

I love your new book Ellie's have 📚 read them all now there so inspiring ❤

[@daplantgirl]

That was an inspiring video ! I’m going’to the Gold Coast in Jan and hopefully I can find your New book!

[@ireneschuurman3655]

Looks delicious! I may have to look into a slowcooker too! Have you ever used it to cook (dried) legumes in? What I like to do when I know I won't be home too late and to mealprep a bit, is to already soak legumes in the morning and soak more than I will use. I start cooking them the minute I get home and then the left-overs I will just freeze in small batches to be added later to soups etc. For me this takes just a little bit of effort but it does save me some money because dried legumes usually are cheaper then cans

[@maisieelle9346]

Eeee love the timing of this ! Making your black bean quesadillas with pickled onions as we speak and had the dill potato fritters earlier this week 💕 looking beautiful Ellie . Wishing you a great next few weeks and the delivery you want congratulations little fam and most of all to mama as a toddler while pregnant would be a lot 🎉💪

[@courtneydennis8877]

Thanks Elle! Cannot wait to try these recipes, especially the pudding! Going to buy your book this weekend.

[@courtneydennis8877]

I also have the Breville multi cooker and never thought to try the slow cooker function. Could you run it on low all day if you are out for 8 hours or does it need to be the high setting?

[@ElsasWholesomeLife]

Yeah you could run it low for sure, I believe low is an 8 hour setting.

[@chantalsglamourparlour6976]

Loving your new book and just got a slow cooker can’t wait to try some of the recipes

[@beckymoe9194]

[@kristinaedwards3822]

That curry looks delicious! I love the idea of using mushroom meat.

[@jadet4000]

[@taylamae3421]

Love this video. Gosh need to get myself a slow cooker! Where is that blue serving dish from the salad from please? And what are good kitchen knifes you recommend please? You would be the one to ask! Haha The ones you were using to chop the salad looked good

[@donnaclark4479]

[@bellaroze9027]

Im still dealing with morning sickness which sucks because everyday I have to think of something interesting to cook for me and my 14month old. I just been cooking the same old meals and I think she’s getting bored of it herself my poor baby 😩😂

[@naturally_alice]

Your preggy brain is cracking me up in the first part!

[@ElsasWholesomeLife]

[@earth2amanda71]

Loved the vid! Where did you buy the fable meat? I'm in Brissie and I am having trouble finding it at the moment - Ta

[@annjames1837]

I'm curious if you check your blood glucose levels since you eat a high carb diet especially while pregnant.

[@michellewood7183]

Not long now till baby here Xxx

[@herianto5375]

Good luck..

[@Randilynn66]

Is your hubs wearing a Denver Broncos t-shirt? How did he become a fan?

[@ElsasWholesomeLife]

Sure is! But he’s not a fan, he’s a fan of American sports vintage 🤭
