Realistic day of eating 🌱 Smokey Carbonara/ Meal Plan & Grocery Haul

[@DustySageHomestead]

I just read some past comments and I'm so sorry people are horrible. I love your channel we watch you all the time My 16th month old asks to watch "baby" everyday because she loves seeing Romi. Thank you for filming so much you're very inspiring!!

Back when we were ‘hunter-gatherers’ the men would go off to hunt (return just occasionally with a bit of meat) & the women collected tubers, roots, greens , fruit, nuts, seeds. The starches & fruit kept us alive & were the mainstay of our food. Fruit was a natural part of our diet.

Hi Ami, my name is Sagit, I happened to come across your videos following my transition to veganism, beyond the excellent advice as a mother of 4 boys, who are already grown, I am amazed and excited to see you...a mother who is connected to herself, happy and energetic who does good for herself and her children..it is very Exciting and happy ... well done to you I know how hard it can be sometimes, with all my love Sagit.

[@sandypans40]

I have been binge watching your videos since seeing you on Chef AJ's show. I am so chuffed that we have a U.K. inspiration in the midst of all the U.S. youtubers and shops that I can go to. Learning lots from you. Almost at the end of a 30 day vegan challenge and have lost at least 10lbs so far. I have just purchased your 7 day potato reset meal plan and love that everything is so simple and not full of nuts (nut allergy) as is the case with a lot of plant based influencers. Also as a coeliac, I'm happy that I can eat practically everything in the plan, whoop whoop. Thank you so much. Keep up the goid work 😊

She is the best my new favorite❤

Never apologize for what you’re doing! You’re choosing to share your daily life and we’re here for it, regardless of what you’re doing or making! That’s reality and why we love you!

[@LucieCreates]

Fruit is the best snack, I agree!!!

[@Becky_One]

I miss half of your videos cause I can’t take my eyes off of the cutest baby in the universe! I can’t get enough of both of you! Love from a grandma in the USA! ❤️🙌🇺🇸🤗

[@tonisharp8747]

Romi is just so super adorable 😍

[@lionsheart26]

I agree. Only thing I don’t like about the Starch Solution is the limiting of fruit. Love fruit.

[@khawlahpeace1222]

You were simply a busy rascal today Ami, and you manage to film for all of us . Thanks for your dedication and love for what you do and who you are. Always a joy to my day. ❤

[@ritamcclelland3110]

You are seriously the best nurturing Mom ❤ And love your snippets of mental health advice. The real holistic deal for a healthy lifestyle 🤩🥗🍌🍍🍠🍠🤩

[@broccolista]

Ami, it made me smile when you said you also deserve to prioritize yourself, and that you deserve to have nice fruit, too! 🥰 I must admit, It has always made me feel sad when you couldn't also have a mango in addition to the kids having them, too. Super glad you'll also prioritize yourself now as well. There are enough mangoes in the world for everyone!🥭🥭🥭 And you definitely deserve it!🌟

[@christinebrush4399]

I am 77, on no meds, walk 3 to 5 km a day and dance away the night on Saturdays! I used to be vegetarian, but fell to the side. Now plant based, needing to lose weight gained in Covid. I love fruit. Will it slow my weight loss on the starch solution? Born and bred a Brummie. Emigrated to Canada in 1967. It is a joy to see your little one shove that fruit in and enjoy it so much..as did our 4. Blessings from North Bay Ontario. Canada.

[@Kayekate3]

Fruit shouldn't be a problem at all as long as you keep your fats very low😊

[@Kayekate3]

You deserve ALL the sweet summer fruit indeed!!! Have you ever made a chocolate banana berry ice cream with a little drizzle of PB2 on the top😳🤤🤤🤤

[@noramaddock4165]

My youngest is a fruit freak! He looooves it. I use it only fruit to sweeten many of the recipes on my KZbin channel. My whole food plant based family of four has been thrived while eating loads of fruit for the past fourteen years.

[@Kathleenventura]

Thank you for explaining that the fear of fruit is just diet culture propaganda. Do people have any idea how much sugar is in their Starbucks lattes and fraps? Or a spoonful of Ben & Jerry’s? 🙃 Yet they’re concerned about you eating a grape 🙉LOL. As you say, fruit is amazing for weight loss - calorically dilute, full of fiber, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, plus so hydrating (it’s why so much of it is in-season in the hot months!)!! I’ve been downing over a lb of watermelon/day lately and losing fat just like I’d expect while being in a consistent cal deficit.

[@PegsGarden]

I am the same here in Florida there is so much abundant fruit, ate a bunch of watermelon yesterday and today a ton of blueberries in my oatmeal and then had a whole mango, love, love fruit, it is what I crave when I want something sweet.

[@clairesingleton7399]

Ami, I’ve never understood why people say fruit is bad. It’s natural but then will eat processed food with added sugar. It’s crazy how much sugar is in food we buy. I bought some wholemeal bread I looked at the ingredients and noticed it had sugar. I don’t have bread often anymore but it’s still strange when you think you’re getting a healthier version but in fact it’s just as bad as contains sugar. I love ❤sourdough/fresh bread. Thanks for sharing hun as always. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤xxxxxxx

[@jenblackman8211]

I was just saying earlier today that fruit is easily my favorite food category!

[@Spudley_ann]

I’ve grown to appreciate banana ice cream.. I do strawberry, mango, or pineapple, I’ve done a strawberry rhubarb one it was delicious! So many options to blend. It’s so true!

[@EllenLury]

Just want to say thank you for the inspiration! Started watching your videos about a month ago and you have put me right back on course of eating Whole Foods. Had been a junk food vegan for 5 years , then about 2 years ago I started eating WFPB. Have some snags along the way but you make it so easy….love your energy and enthusiasm. Thanks also for the 7 day plans… bought all 3.

[@angi334]

You are so darn creative and I'm always blown away with your delicious and simple creations!

[@suzyq6767]

What a fun video! I so miss having littles to picnic with. You aren't much older than my grandchildren, so it's been a long time ago for me. I agree; cauliflower is magic. It makes the creamiest gravies and sauces. I like how you added mushrooms and whole cauliflower to your sauce. That would make it feel like a bulkier meal. I'm a volume eater. That crispy zucchini looks amazing. I'll give it a try. I saw you on Chef AJ the other day and have been watching your old videos as they pop up. I think you and your sweet family are adorable. Thank you.

[@hidden909]

I loved this video, quick foods, uncomplicated, I always need to be reminded of the delicious nature of simple flavors

[@christineh5856]

I love your simple recipes! Thanks!

[@emilyheeren7034]

I love your videos!!! Thank you for sharing your daily life! You are so refreshing!

[@lizzzarduh]

I am obsessed with the cotton candy grapes at the moment they are just so hydrating

[@plantbasedwithpeggy7682]

I so appreciate all you do by giving us good recipes! Nevertheless, I have been completely plant-based for 4 years now, and I have maintained my weight for part of that time and gained weight recently after a hip replacement. I have joined and rejoined Weight Watchers several times over the course of that time and have been largely unsuccessful with that. I think the problem with it is that they have such a list of free foods. In truth, they aren't free - at least for me. A month or so ago I had a brief time with Noom. I had never counted calories in my life until then. I didn't continue with Noom but I actually got the Lose It it app to track my food. I know that goes against what you teach, but I've been the route of eating as much fruit and as much beans as I want and I cannot lose weight doing that. So with all that said, I have lost 7 lbs since June 23rd. I know it's a hassle to log food, and I hope I can get an eye for what a reasonable portion size for me is, so I don't have to do this forever. However I'm thankful that I'm doing it now.

[@dparks3784]

This is an excellent channel, and so many healthy ideas to work with.

[@KarenMcKendry]

Everything looks delish! Thanks for all the great ideas Ami! 😊

[@melodyfoster5097]

Liquid smoke…genius! Going to try this for sure.❤

[@carolinajimenez8413]

I just prepped some sweet potatoes for this week and did a nice grocery haul full of fruits, veggies and a nice whole wheat no oil bread ☺️. I have been starting my days with fruit and I feel amazing. Not yet in my final weight, but trying. Thanks!

[@rohannawildon9729]

I need to start making these recipes really bored of my food so I’m excited thank youn

[@Lola-Yo]

I love using liquid smoke! I also make Vacon crumbles from tvp mince and keep a bag of crumbles in the freezer for the carbonara vibe!

[@julietthomas5212]

Ami - do you shop anywhere else? - would be great if you could do grocery hauls from other supermarkets

[@brassneckweddoes]

Cabbages and cauliflowers are so small at the moment , I must buy more frozen fruit and vegetables and shop at Morrisons.

[@prairiecherie5743]

I like dried basil on my zucchini so I’m going to try your recipe with basil. ❤

[@nazeeniranfar2616]

Thank you Amie for another inspiring video 👍 Romi is growing up so fast and it is adorable how she is starting to communicate and say words 🥰

[@dinahdonaldson8914]

I love adding beets into my salads for a crunch! I wish she’d show some beets! ❤

[@margRose]

Great inspirational video!!! Wanna tell you that per your suggestion I have added cauliflower & mint to my morning smoothie. I also add some spinach. I absolutely love it!!! It keeps me full for a good few hours!!!

[@debbiepalmer1094]

Have you tried the flat peaches that are available at the moment? I got some from Tesco and they were so good and a great price too.

[@rohannawildon9729]

Loveee fruit❤

[@thespiritualistoslo]

Mochi is easy to make with gluttinous rice but I have not tried it with other kinds of rice.

[@tonisharp8747]

And its winter here in australia at the moment and the fruit selection is not the best. Oranges and bananas is about all thats in season that is worth buying. The rest just tastes terrible. But im definitely team fruit!!!🎉

[@shellypike9830]

I love fruit, and trying an experiment right now to eat a higher percentage of it and see if I can still lose weight

[@leas_lifestyle]

That's awesome! Fruit is wonderful for weight-loss.

[@layladarby1994]

fruit will not interfere with weight loss.

[@muddypaws]

I'm looking for a new blender can I ask what you have?🐾

[@annagodfrey2829]

Hi Ami love your recipes and your videos. Please can you let me know do you use dried chickpeas that you soak or tinned chickpeas? If you soak dried chickpeas do you cook them before putting them into the dressing or banana milk etc recipes? Thanks 😊

[@altacc-c8o]

Who did you do the rap. It looks good

[@naomi3kids1]

How did you make the sauce for the pasta?

[@theresajurrus6307]

Amy how do you store all of your frozen goods. I have a trunk type freezer and it is full of who knows what. Help.

[@karenstanton5405]

l always eat a lot of fruit daily l ignore that advice on starch solution because l don`t need to lose weight

[@juliegillies6688]

Fruit rules ❤

[@emmamorris2899]

Hi Amy, where do you buy your noch from?

[@familyrudihaugen5084]

can you explain the aquafaba in the dressing? It was so thick

[@celinabond]

I’m curious of this too! I thought it was more like chickpea water but this one looked thick and goopy😅😊

[@tracybedford0]

I love watching all that you do but must admit I'm not a fruit person. Not because of the "sugar" but because I'm a savoury person not sweet, so fruit really doesn't appeal to me..I sometimes buy it but end up chucking it on the banking for the wildlife 🫤 Saying that though watching Romi chomp down on mango is awesome 🥭😁 your kiddos are great

[@kourtneybenda6481]

You rock

[@Mermaidgypsy68]

I feel the same way about fruit!! Have to have it!God’s sugar is NOT the same as man’s processed sugar!!

[@snowygirl3171]

I cooked the zucchini with the nutritional yeast and garlic salt in my air fryer..I didn’t like it…maybe cause Im Not a fan of zucchini .

[@markwaldonjohnson]

These fruits aren't natural. They don't exist in nature that sweet :(
