Game Changing VEGAN FOOD HACKS That Will Change Your Life // Plant Based Diet // Vegan Health Tips

[@maureenbullis1805]

I keep a cloth bag in my freezer and add my broth veggie scraps like onion ends etc. when it is full I cook in on the stove on low for a couple of hours then strain. Free broth!🌈🌈

[@lornaharvey2859]

When it comes to peanut butter, I turn the jar upside down when I get it home from the store. When I go to open it I shake it up so it blends and then once I've taken out what I need I put it back on the shelf upside down. I find it much less messy than blending it and then putting it back in the jar and it works just as well.

[@kristib5536]

One hack I do. I got a spray bottle that is supposed to be for oil and put veggie broth in it. I keep it in the fridge and when I roast veggies I just spray it with veggie broth and throw them in the oven. Helps them not dry out too much. I also double batch waffles and pancakes for the kids and throw them in the freezer. Easy breakfasts for the week. Also, Changing to a pantry chef after watching Tia's video a couple months ago changed me life. I have soooooooooo much more time to get other things done because I'm not in the kitchen all evening. And yes!!!! The frozen rice is a game changer.

[@HealthyVeganMama]

I love these ideas. Definitely going to start freezing our own waffles. Love ❤️

I grate several carrots (6-7) in my food processor and place into a jar and it will last for at least 2 weeks. Then I use grated carrots in my salads and I love putting a handful in my morning oatmeal before cooking and I use in baking( baked oatmeal or muffins) It’s a great time saver for me! And carrots are so clean that all I do is rinse my food processor out and dry. 😉

[@juliaarcher6051]

Hi! My hack is to make our dry beans in an instapot. It takes about 30 to cook, 20 to cool. We then usually make hummus and use the beans during the week, including freezing. We love this because when we went plant based, we were drowning in bean cans. No, no recycling of cans! Cans are still an awesome hack in a pinch! And Thx, Tia!!

[@ritarains9341]

Tia….you have changed my life! I can’t thank you enough!!! I have been struggling with my weight for a long time and have tried everything. I have also been teetering for almost a year on going vegetarian, and you have now made that such an easy transition for me. You have no idea the impact you have made in my life and I can’t thank you enough. I have lost 7 pounds in 3 weeks and LOVE that I don’t have to track anything or log anything or count calories, etc. You make meals fun and easy to make and gave me all the life tools and hacks I need to succeed❤️. Please don’t ever stop your videos and recipes! Do you have a cookbook?

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Oh Rita I’m so happy you are doing well and are enjoying my channel :) thank you for sharing. Cookbook coming soon

[@linedezainde]

Great ideas! I buy avocado when the bag of 5 or 6 is on sale but they are usually all ready to eat. I peel and freeze them in a ziploc. Thaw each in the microwave for 1 minute at half power. I often take 1/2 of one mixed with PB2, a little water and garlic and it makes the best kale salad dressing ever! PB2 replaces tahini in this recipe.

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Oh that’s smart!

[@bearclaire]

Also if you let avocado's ripen at room temp and then place them in the fridge once they are ripe. they'll stay perfect for a couple weeks

[@disabledbabe]

I didn't know you could freeze avocados.

[@Alice-rc1lp]

Love this! As well as canned (or tinned as we say in the U.K.) beans I cook dry beans in an instant pot, which means no soaking, then freezing them in portions so they’re ready just to add to things when I want them. 🌱

[@sarahwade3511]

I put the small dough hook attachment on my mixer and blend the peanut butter right in the jar. No need to have the extra step of putting it in a blender and then putting it back in the jar and having to clean the blender. It works really well

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Love that!

[@carish1452]

Was here to say the same!

[@Mzal-vy7qc]

Hi! I’ve been vegan for almost three years and I have to say I WAS a processed food eating vegan but I just switched to a WFPB diet and I’m so excited I found you on KZbin!!! I was thinking that other day I pray I find someone on KZbin that I can learn from and that inspires me and I found you!! Thank you for your videos, I’ve been watching them for a few days and have already tried several recipes!! By the way, my name is Tia too!!!

[@HealthyVeganMama]

I’m so happy you are enjoying! Thanks for watching.

[@BirdieMcLovin]

My peanut butter hack for natural pb is to take my hand mixer and only use one attachment and mix it right in the jar. Just be sure to stop it before pulling it out lol.

[@notetoheather8818]

We wash fruit in a 1:4 vinegar:water ratio when we get home. Let dry, and it will easily last 2x longer!

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Awesome tip

[@reginadaysnuffer8391]

Just a tip for those who don't know: When you cook pasta, potatoes or rice and refrigerate them overnight, then reheat the next day, it makes the starch in them become resistant. Cooked, cooled, then reheated, keeps your body from absorbing as many calories from your favorite starchy foods!!!

[@sandrafernandes6465]

Fantastic video as always. Learnt new things today - Pb and avocado in the fridge. My hacks - strawberries soak them 5 min in 1 part White Vinegar 8 parts Water. Drain & Rinse Then let dry in colander for hours. Pat dry then put in mason jar with lid on. No fermentation. Stays for 2 weeks as good as first day.

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Love that, I’ll have to try

[@charleenrice6414]

Parboiled rice is great too. I cant tell you how many times I've grabbed some parboiled brown rice and had it cooked up within 15 minutes instead if 45. Game changer.

[@laurenw7384]

I second becoming a pantry chef. We will stock up on the beans and legumes when they’re on offer, even if we aren’t planning on using them straight away. It means we are stocked up and have really easy options when we are running low on fresh foods. So quick and easy to whip up a bean/lentil curry out of the pantry.

[@christinemlawson8464]

I Love Love the pantry chef idea. I stress after working 40 hours a week about “What in the World am I going to cook every day. We just started completely plant based and I’m learning! Thank you for the great tips 🌟

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Woohoo! So happy this is helpful

[@kklc4]

I completely agree with this too

[@eironhendrix]

Congrats going plant based best thing for the family mine also went plant based about a month ago and were lovin it

[@TheReluctantVEGrANny]

Frozen pasta works great. All you need to do is put frozen pasta in strainer and run it under hot water and serve

[@HealthyVeganMama]

🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I can’t wait to do this!!!

[@linedezainde]

Do you rince the pasta before freezing?

[@louisetaylor283]

I use a stick blender to mix in the peanut butter oil. It is slow but I don't have a blender jar to cleanout. Also, I batch cook rice, and beans from dry, then bag them up and freeze them. Dry peas and beans are much cheaper than canned.

[@stephanieschwartz6212]

I make a big pot of dried beans on the weekend and put some in the fridge and the rest in the freezer...just like your rice and grains!

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Awesome tip and hack!

[@tiffanylabelle]

I do the same! :)

[@paigeschultz6951]

PB- we find simply stirring new jar of all nat PB until oil is reabsorbed / homogenous and then keeping in fridge works like a charm ❤️❤️❤️

[@notetoheather8818]

You can also flip the peanut butter jar over (close tight) and store that way. Everytime you flip it over to open it, the best peanut butter is always at the top. :-)

[@CheriF]

I keep mine in the fridge and never deal with separation after that initial stir.

[@g.duquette2365]

Same as Cheri F; I chill my peanut butter, mix it once it’s cold, and then keep it in the fridge and it never separates again. Perfect all the way thru and no blender to clean!

[@scorpfelidae2439]

I used to put peanut butter in the blender. or blend it with a knife. but now I do the hack I learned from Simnett Nutrition (giving credit for a great tip - also plantbased). just turn the peanut butter jar upside down. the oil will rise again, blending with the rest. when the oil starts showing on top, shake it. and refrigerate it. Love this. I also love your 2nd peanut butter hack. now I use it all the time. I love your peanut butter / powder sauce on toast, and put mashed banana with cinnamon and coconut stevia. Yum. and lower fat, now. :)

[@kimpatrono9472]

Hi Tia! I have another peanut butter hack that I got from Simnett Nutrition! When you bring your jar of peanut butter home with the oil floating on the top, put it upside down (sit it on the lid in the cabinet). In a day or two it will all have sunk down the sides of the jar to the top. Then, all you have to do is vigorously shake it and it stays mixed! I couldn’t believe it when he said it - but it works!

[@staceydostie3451]

PB hack… you don’t have to put it into a blender and get THAT all messy… I put my jar in the microwave just to heat it a little (to get soft) and then use a hand blender right in the jar! Same result, waaaaay easier and less messy! ♥️

[@TheADAKing]

You covered a lot of great things in this video! One thing I will add is there's an easier way to keep the peanut butter oil from separating, you just have to store the jar upside down! It will all mix up perfectly

[@Angelinaandfamily]

You can also mix leftover avocado into salsa and the acid helps make it last longer and makes salsa creamy 😋

[@tracyalt739]

Great tips as always Tia! Another hack that I recently learned about avocados is to cut them in half width-wise instead of lengthwise. This exposes less surface area to potentially brown before you can use the other half. I haven't tried it yet, but it could work!

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Very interesting

[@carmenbailey1560]

Put a slice of onion on top of the open flesh and refrigerator, it works.

[@mandareyes8854]

I do cut mine like this and it helps. The best thing is leave the seed in and put the half in a bag or container. It will stay green for a day or two

[@inspiteofbecauseof4745]

When making any meal when possible-go ahead and double the amount and freeze. Works for pancakes; waffles, pasta, muffins, rice, soups, chili, sloppy Joe lentils, pbj’s for kids etc.

[@sarahdee374]

Single person hack: I buy the Pacific brand low sodium veggie broth in the 4 pack of small (8 oz?) pkgs. If I buy the large box, unless I'm making soup, it goes bad before I use it all. I have no problem using up a small one for sautéing veggies before it goes bad. I also dislike making bunches of sauces. So I have found clean sauces (sweet chili, kung pao, BBQ etc) and keep them on hand. I can then add to beans, veggies, soy curls, rice, pasta or tofu and make an easy meal.

[@wileyp.i.4437]

I have been a pantry chef for quite some time and most would consider me "OCD" about it, LOL!! All my grains/beans/fruits etc. are in WECK jars. I converted my dining room into a master pantry area, with stainless steel racks for all my equipment, pots/pans, dried goods, etc. To me, it is such a fun and organized way to be creative. I have actually been remodeling/creating pantry areas for friends. Also, I make homemade everything and soup is one of my son's favorite. He happens to be so incredibly PICKY (he won't even eat fast food when he's out with his friends, LOL!!)! When the soup cools, I put portions in food saver bags, seal and freeze! I LOVE your PB2 idea and I'm going to try it! Thank you ALWAYS, Tia! I LOVE all your ideas and creative ways. You are adorable and such an inspiration!

[@HealthyVeganMama]

[@krystenann]

LOVE these hacks! I'm definitely going to try mixing PB with PB2, as I've had trouble feeling satisfied with the taste and consistency of PB2. I don't know why I haven't thought of it before! Thanks, Tia!

[@paigeschultz6951]

Thx for tips and encouragement that I’m not alone! This mama w/ fam of 6 plant based eaters sometimes needs to not feel like a freak🤣! When I often have avocado left I scoop out my portion and leave the pit in tact and put the 2 “shells” back together and place in baggie in fridge and this keeps great for days. I have also had great success leaving the pit in tact and placing plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the avocado and placing in the fridge and that way it keeps it from browning and keeps it fresh with the pit in place. Also a few drops of citrus before storing helps freshness❤️👍🏻

[@Dlekapj]

Why didn't I think to freeze rice and quinoa???? I usually make a big batch and just put it in the fridge and use up quickly, but freezing would be so much better! Thank you!!

[@maryknight289]

I like to cut up all sorts of stuff and freeze it; minced ginger, diced onion & sliced, sweet peppers, diced and a separate bag of sliced, green onion, saves me a lot of time.

[@darlawilks8814]

I cook my dried beans without soaking and cook about 40 min in the instant pot until desired tenderness. Love your videos.

[@RobNisters]

If you want to ripen an avocado fast, put it in a paper bag (so it doesn't get mouldy) and also put in a banana. The banana produces a gas that will help ripen fruit.

[@shamonecooper6341]

Hi 🙋🏾‍♀️ Yes the noodles freeze great I make them fresh and put it in a ziplock bag to freeze and whenever I want pasta for dinner then I just boil in hot water and it taste as fresh as you just made it that day.

Fantastic idea with fruit in the jars . I'm going to do that !

[@ejwilliams2002]

Yes, love that idea. I had started from her travel video. I'm going to do more of that now!! 😊👍🏽

[@patty-cf7jj]

My sister thought she was eating healthy and vegan and she wondered why she wasn’t losing weight. She asked me to critique her diet and showed me her daily food diary for a week. I saw she was consuming a lot of hidden oils. Store bought hummus, frozen things like plant based “chicken nuggets”, crackers with oils, tortilla chips with salsa, etc. I just told her to read, read, read labels on everything and watch out for all the oils.

[@HealthyVeganMama]

That’s great advice. I bet you’ve helped her tremendously.

[@MythicStealth]

For the peanut butter issue, I mixed it up a bit, then made sure lid was on super tight before putting it in the pantry upside down. (I didn't have time to take it all out and blend it) Worked ok.

[@Sandrashideaway]

👍Great tips, I've done some of these for years especially the "pantry chef". I've kept my pantry stocked with foods we always eat & based on meals we normallly eat. 😋 I have 3-6 months worth which is basically a peppers pantry. Lol 😆 I also have cooked rice in freezer at all times but to save $$ I just make a big batch in my instant pot, cool, and freeze in ziplic sandwich bags in 1 cup portions. So easy to throw in microwave with frozen veggies for a quick dinner. Also if you cook beans in instant pot you don't have to soak overnight. I make a pot every Sunday and freeze these beans in baggies too. 🍲

[@darlawilks8814]

[@catherinefoster7782]

Great hacks. FYI if you turn the jar of peanut butter upside down for 24 hours before you open it the oil will move to the bottom of the jar then you can easily mix it then store it in the fridge once you’ve mixed it. It won’t separate again.

[@rozchristopherson648]

A peanut butter hack from another KZbinr (Simnett Nutrition) is to shake the jar of peanut butter hard, then turn the jar upside down and store in in the cabinet. The oil will rise again but it will be at the bottom of the jar, not at the top where the lid is. When you take the jar out of the cabinet, shake it again to redistribute the oil. That way the oil will blend from the bottom rather than you having to stir it from the top, which is messy as you say.

Thanks for watching! What are some Vegan Food hacks you use that I haven’t mentioned? We’d love to hear! 💥 Also video brain fart moment: Three bananas would be close to 210 calories (small to medium size) so one tbsp of oil would be equivalent to close to 2 bananas, again depending on the size you eat. Regardless, the point is, you can eat lots of real food that will fill your belly, for the same amount of 1 tbsp of oil that does nothing in the way of nutrition and fullness. Huge difference!

That blending peanut butter hack is AMAZING. Never heard of it. I thought you were going to mention the stirring lid kit they have. It's a lid that has a hole in the top, there's a stirring 'thing' (sorry, can't remember the name of it), you put it through the hole on the lid and turn the handle to stir. No spillovers. I don't have one because I don't eat the peanut butter (can't control myself with it) but when I DID eat it when I first transitioned over, I would stir up the peanut butter and store it upside down in the fridge. Only had to stir it once. But I think your blender hack is a MUCH better idea 😉

I throw it in a pot with everything else 🙌🏻 I make a lot and use what I need for my meal and put the rest back in the freezer

WoW! I didn't know that putting an avocado in the fridge slows the ripening process, thanks!

I started putting fruit in jars to take camping after I saw you doing this on your vacation video, thanks for the great tip!
