Dani please could you talk us through your workout routine & skincare routine? You look fabulous!

[@fitmom0609]

I was coming on to request this as well!

[@Anyoneouthere1]

Yessss please I'm very interested in your skincare bc your skin is glowing!

[@margaritathurman5007]

Agree!!!

I'm sharing a new Eat In A Day video to show you that eating well can be super easy and delicious! Let me know if you have any questions. XO

[@Anyoneouthere1]

Dani please do a video on your skincare routine. Your skin is glowing! ❤

[@adukkuwa]

You present it in a very interesting way

[@suzannescalisi3135]

Where can I find the recipe for the Protein Banana Bread?

[@sweetie4ama]

i love this i've been seeing more and more people integrating cottage cheese a bit there and well everywhere so that seems quite interesting.. i'm just wondering with your training routine and all is 1600cal not way under the normal maintenance level? are you on a fat loss journey or is it just what you feel satiated with?

[@fcruz221]

Skin care please!

[@TRUMPWIN21]

Thank you for this direction in health and wellness. I’m post menopause and building muscle and focusing on high protein meals are a priority at this stage in my life. Really appreciate the content.

We are in the same boat so I'm super glad to have you here.

[@lisah4425]

This was so helpful, Dani! I am on a GLP1 and struggling to get enough protein in a day. My loss of appetite keeps me from eating typical-size meals, so I find myself snacking, but not on foods of much value. Even if I don't eat all of what you just shared, the ideas are spectacular. Please do more of these protein-forward, What-I-Eat-In-A-Day types of videos!

[@lisasmith3951]

Thank you so much for the ideas, I am also post menopause, doing strength training, but am really struggling with what I eat. I eat clean whole foods, but have terrible cravings and then snack on junk. So looking forward to the banana bread recipe. Keep these ideas coming, we ladies in this stage of life need all the inspiration we can get. ❤

[@mysticseraph2213]

Love the sound of the cottage cheese alfredo pasta with the broc and chicken! I"m definitely going to add that into my meal rotation.

[@wendyjeckell7445]

you can use zucchini noodles instead of pasta (don’t cook them) It’s a slightly different texture but very tasty!

[@mysticseraph2213]

@@wendyjeckell7445 Oooh, I hadn't thought of that! With the weather getting (unseasonably!) warmer here in Australia, that sounds like an excellent option to both get some more vege in, and for a more refreshing option. Thank you! ❤

[@DtlaDaisy]

Hi Dani! Thanks so much for sharing another 'what i eat in a day'! Im in my 40s also, with the goal of just feeling strong and healthy in a sustainable (and delicious) way so that I can avoid the ailments that women in their 60s-90s usually encounter if they don't incorporate movement/nutrient rich food as a regular part of life. I've been a subscriber here for years, I remember when you had a different kitchen background! Your food and now strength exercise routines really show that you just dont age! You truly do not look 48 and I feel like that's proof that having nutrient rich food and daily movement really does help people look and feel younger than their age!

[@michellefitz4287]

This video was outstanding! I’m 49, turning 50 in January. My hubby and I mostly eat high quality healthy foods, simple ingredients, etc. Throw in smaller more frequent meals and some intermittent fasting and we feel pretty good!

Great ideas and I love that you eat bread. I am also looking forward to the banana bread recipe next week. The afternoon is when I struggle and having coffee or tea and something like cake would satisfy my European taste buds.

[@janelandry6584]

I love this content. I can absolutely relate to putting meals on repeat. Makes things so much easier.

[@dianehall5345]

Hello Dani from our farm in New Hampshire. Great tips for breakfast. I am post gall bladder and cannot manage any nut butters, however can eat most of what you are recommending. I just received your amazing cookbook and find I can also eat almost everything. The rest I can substitute, for example carob for chocolate. Chicken for red meat and lightly steamed salads instead of raw salads. The basics that you are putting forth in your book and on your channel, form a solid, reliable base of healthy and fun recipes. ~ Diane

[@hoosiermama3001]

Great info! A running tally of protein would be the only thing I'd add. Appreciate all the totals at the end as well.

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

I'll keep that in mind - thanks for the feedback!

[@zuzuzimmi]

I absolutely love your content and your energy! Thank you so much for brightening up our day with these inspiring videos! Can you make a separate video on the breads you consume? I am trying to reduce gluten consumption for health reasons, but your breads look and sound so appealing! Sprouted green bread? Nut bread? OMG I wanna hear more about all that good stuff! Sending you lots of love from a small country of Azerbaijan!

[@squashit339]

I like that you are eating real food and not fasting, you eat good tasting food all throughout the day. I'm sort of on the same path. I'm 52 and this year I decided was the year to get in shape and stay there. Unfortunately it's right in the middle of menopause and it hasn't been easy but it's happening. I'm down 22lbs. I've been cycling and doing a lot of weight training. I like LMNT but not the high sodium. I am not sure if they need the sodium to react in some way with the other ingredients or not but I wish they made a lower sodium one because I have borderline high blood pressure.

[@stephaniefay3041]

Love this channel and your ideas for meal plans. Thank you so much for sharing! One quick note is that collagen is NOT a complete protein and therefore shouldn’t be added to your protein count for the day. Sadly, I just learned this from working with a nutritionist.

[@suzysandiego6478]

You are adorable and SO smart about keeping healthy!! Thank you Dani! Cheers🎉

Consuming collagen with 1000 mg vitamin C is also recommended. If I can find the reference, I will add it later. I prefer collagen powder in water vs a hot drink.

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

Thanks for sharing!

[@nanadoctrove5590]

any recommendations on collagen?

[@linneasalte1513]

Thank you so much for this video. It’s really helpful to have some high protein recipes as I’m turning 40 today and I’m wanting to get my body stronger and healthier. Most of the time I look up high protein menu ideas and they don’t look appetizing but your ideas actually look delicious and something I would eat.

[@TheCallyjean]

Yes! I love sweet and savoury together - I really enjoyed this video - I can totally relate to your way of eating - Thank you for sharing - Great ideas!! 😊

[@SusanSlattery]

Dani, I am currently crushing sheep yogurt. I eat 453 grams after my 13 mile walk outside. Then I generally eat 2-3 Brazil nuts and three organic prunes. Then I throw some kettlebells around and do some other muscle things, then for example today, I ate 250g of steamed broccoli with 150 calories worth of canned salmon with skin and bones. At some point I will also eat 2-3 T of pumpkin seeds (magnesium baby) and for dinner all I ever want is 453g of sheep yogurt AGAIN. I’m 60 and while I love nuts and nut butters I’m currently pushing it all away in favor of sheep yogurt. 80g protein per day

[@brendadouglas9833]

This looks really good and easily adjusted to the amount we need. Love the ideas.

[@tr9066]

Thank you for these “clean” recipes without artificial sweeteners or flavoring. ❤❤❤

Thank you Dani! I’m in my early 40s looking for more yummy protein filled meals for overall health and weight-loss goals. Are you able to do a video to help with foods/meal ideas for someone who is pre diabetes? I really want to bring that number under so that I’m out of pre diabetes. Thank you.

[@carolsopinski4549]

Thanks Dani for all your great recipes❤. As a 63 yr old woman, I try to go higher in protein, and healthy fats,however I struggle a bit with low carb. It leaves me feeling a bit shaky and foggy. Could you speak to this a bit in a future video please?

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

How low do you try to go? We have to remember that different approaches work for different bodies, so listening to your body's feedback is key! That said, it all takes time and practice - believe me, I'm right there working on it all with you! XO

[@angelapotter2754]

Hi Dani! I absolutely loved this informative video with all your recipes & tips! I have a few questions please - is there a reason you wait a couple of hours after waking to have your breakfast or is it just preference, and how long do you wait between eating breakfast & working out? I can’t wait to make this savoury breakfast and the cottage cheese Alfredo, do you find the sauce thick enough without having to use a binder/thickener such as cornstarch or arrowroot/tapioca starch? What are your thoughts on the recent news/information regarding very high glyphosate levels found in Banza chickpea pasta? Thank you so much, I appreciate all the information you provide to everyone!😊💕

[@kimberlyholzerland4599]

[@Ashley-jr1nm]

This amazing! Thank you so much. Do you have any tips on not having watery scrambled eggs with cottage cheese? I try to incorporate cottage cheese in things for extra protein because I don’t like it at all on its own. I made your cottage cheese Alfredo last week, and it was absolutely delicious! I also think I’m going to finally use your code and try LMNT. Have a great day, Dani, and thanks for all of the useful information.

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

It's my pleasure! Glad it's all helpful. The more fat in the cottage cheese, the less watery the eggs will be. That said, I usually use lowfat and find that once they come out of the pan and are not super hot, the water reabsorbs and the eggs are nice and fluffy.

[@susanyakus7364]

I would like to see a video on how to get protein if you aren't fond of vegetables. I really struggle with them. I will eat a salad, but that's about it. I like potatoes, but I know they are higher in carbs. I have your cookbook and I am really loving it.

[@maryswisher3358]

Dani, thank you for sharing your tips, tricks, and lifestyle changes on this journey you are on to create a healthier lifestyle for yourself. I have learned so many new things from you that I’ve incorporated into my life and never even really realized the power of protein. I mainly more vegetables because I love vegetables in my life and always just did a small little amount of protein. Changing that up is really helped. Of course, I’m not there at 140 g point yet, but hope to get better. I didn’t implementing more protein into my life. As far as LMNT, the first time I saw it in one of your videos, I believe it was when you first introduced it, I ordered some I could not believe how my body felt after the first packet that I tried. My head felt clearer. I was just so amazed. I too like all of the flavors and cannot really pick one that I like better than the other. Upon trying LMNT and realizing how it made me feel, I shared it with my son, daughter-in-law and family. They absolutely love it. Our entire family is trying to adopt a healthier lifestyle, and I do not do process foods if I can help it. The journey has been a challenge at times, but I realize how much better I feel because of it. I look forward to learning more from you and hopefully can adopt more physical lifestyle, as well. I’m not as active as I used to be. I went from being an early childhood educator to an early childhood education trainer. I have a desk now and so not used to it! Thanks again for what you do and everything you share with us I look forward to learning more. Take care! ❤

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

I appreciate your thoughtful comment and am so glad the videos are helpful! As for the LMNT - that's exactly what happened to me. I felt SO good after trying it for the first time, I was hooked! Keep on doing what you are doing. It sounds like you are making great strides. XO

[@KelliDean-f8h]

Hi Dani, I would encourage you to look at the protein quality of collagen before promoting it as a protein source. It has lots of health qualities, but it is one of the poorest sources of protein and should not be considered a protein source when determining your daily protein intake. I used to count it also until I learned differently.

[@MelissaChernovsky-mh6xv]

Great video and I'm looking forward to the recipe for the protein banana bread. Got the alfredo pasta ingredients on my list for tomorrow. Btw I'll be turning 48 in about 5 months so this is great what you are doing. One question about the collagen powder... what kind do you recommend or have tried? I looked on amazon and talk about choices lol, I couldn't decide. Ty

Love all these recipes to incorporate the cottage cheese, gonna try that egg one tomorrow 😋 but, I turned 60 and have always been pretty active, but my body hasn't shown it since after my child bearing years lol sadly. But, I never quit because of how a workout makes me feel. I am Native American and we carry our weight in the mid section, arms and legs pretty slender... I am impressed with your ability to do pull ups. I have horrible upper body strength and I would like to know if you know much about resistance band routines? I want to try the ELMT too. Thanks for all you do, Dani 😊

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

It's a journey for sure! I love that you continue to workout because it makes you FEEL good - that's the magic mindset right there. As for pullups, I started by using resistance bands (And still use them!) - it's a great way to get in more reps when you can't do them unassisted.

[@easyfrenchdiet]

Your sandwich looks delicious. I'm going to try this recipe and bring it for lunch at my office. Have a nice day!

[@susanevans7724]

Great meal recommendations! I always enjoy your videos. The only question I have is counting the collagen in the protein count. Since it is not a complete protein, I don't think it should be added to the protein count. I can't wait for the banana protein bread recipe!

[@carmenn5609]

Which sprouted grain bread do you buy? I like the breakfast and lunch options. the meals look so delicious and so that does banana bread, oh my....yum😋 That's a lot of protein, my daughter and I were talking about how hard it was to even get about 60 grams of protein, but you made it so easy.

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

There are several great protein powder options. I prefer whey protein b/c I think it has a better flavor and texture. Here are some of my favorites: Momentus: amzn.to/3yNlHOl KION: bit.ly/3WHkYpM (Use Code: CLEAN10 save 10%) Tera's Whey: amzn.to/3OvvLPW (great price and often on sale via Amazon) FlavCity: amzn.to/3DRne4D If you prefer a plant-based protein (no whey), here are a couple of great options: Truvani: amzn.to/3DQJVWK

Garden of Life: amzn.to/45qBtcI If you want something that has no flavor (you can add to coffee or oatmeal or smoothies and not taste it at all!) collagen protein is a great option.

Primal Kitchen Collagen: amzn.to/453SXvG Vital Protein Collagen: amzn.to/3sdye9W Any of these would be great options!
