[@melissamiller9477]

Your videos are so well done. It's clear you put a lot of thought and effort into them 😊

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you Melissa! I’m so glad you noticed and appreciate that! It means so much 💙

[@claudiasmedberg]

okay not gonna lie, I watch a lot of youtube channels that specialize in recipes, but your recipes are always the ones I will actually recreate. Sometimes recipes are fun to watch but not as simple as it seems to recreate. You really do specialize in easy healthy vegan living and I love that about your channel so much.

[@Jackson-jt5bb]

Please recreate the eggplant hummus. The trader Joes in my area doesnt carry it.

[@hahaleemin]

Im not vegan but I'm looking for more plant based recipes. I appreciate your video because I could tell you put SO much effort into it with all the recipes added to the groceries. thank you!

[@valerievanhalen7279]

I always use leftover coconut flakes and bake them on a cookie sheet in the oven with liquid smoke and it’s SO good for salads and pasta toppers or even on sandwiches.. sooo delicious!

[@nori9454]

Good video! Thanks, I love seeing what people do with their groceries! I always get loads of fruit, greens, broccoli, tomatoes, and herbs. Yakisoba noodles, tofu, raw nuts, pastas, beans, dry grains, breads, tortiilas, nut milks and frozen berries. All my weekly staples. I have the best walnut pesto recipe; 2 cups basil, 1/2 cup walnuts, 1/4 cup olive oil, 6-8 cloves of garlic, 3 tablespoons white miso, pepper to taste. Blend in food processor. Soooo good! It's from Ann Gentry's Vegan family meals. I have been making this for years.

[@SoCalMizfit]

I love the way you do grocery hauls and show the way you would use the item. I watch your grocery hauls over and over.

[@MaritsaDarman]

Armenian Lentil soup...with no oil... Place 1/2 cup red lentils (Trader Joe's item) in a pot, rinse well in the pot you will use to cook it in. After the last since cover it with water (lots of water); place it over the heat on low and wait for it to foam; remove the foam. Add small chopped potato. Cook until the potatoes are just before done. Add a grated tomato, chopped parsley, salt and pepper to taste, and aleppo pepper always makes it taste better (but you can sub for any thing really). Cook for about 6-7 minutes until the tomatoes are cooked and you don't have the raw tomato taste and the potatoes are done. DONE yummy

[@melindagross8604]

I love your Trader Joe’s haul videos and quick dinner ideas that are so realistic! We make the grilled tofu that you recreated every single week! It’s my 6 year old son’s fave meal! ❤️

[@mistythompson4961]

Yes to the hummus. It's the only thing I forgot to get to try and TJ over hour away

[@NikkiVegan]

Ooooo no! Lol hopefully I can figure out how to recreate it so you can make it at home soon ☺️

[@Sarah-gc6tu]

These are my favorite videos! I can’t wait to come back home to the states and do my grocery shopping at Trader Joe’s.

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Sarah! I love Trader Joes! Let me know if you find any food stuff the next time you go there :)

[@CatFoxx5]

Your recipes always look so amazing! I'm not much of a cook, but you inspire me to learn. And Yes! please make the eggplant humus!

[@nikkiruthen6535]

Thank you! I love the grocery haul with recipes videos. Pantry staple; refried beans. Burritos are so fast and easy.

[@NikkiVegan]

You’re welcome! I’m so happy you liked this video ☺️💙 and yesssss! Refried beans are the best! Love it in burritos, veggie bowls, and also on baked sweet potatoes with avocado and hot sauce on top 😋

[@itsirkeel]

This is AMAZING!!! I love TJ's and am modifying my diet to be much more vegan/vegetarian inclined, and these recipes and ingredients help so very much. Looking forward to adding in your recipes to my growing collection. Thank you so much for sharing this video. It makes the changes seem so much more manageable!

[@arizona011190]

Yes, please! An eggplant hummus recipe would be greaaaat!!:)))😍😍

[@jenwylie4093]

Everything looks healthy and delicious!!

[@sayhellochica4352]

My Trader Joe staples are steamed lentils, hummus, frozen broccoli, the frozen vegetable Thai dumplings, and the awesome Green Goddess dressing!! The carrot ginger one is really yummy... but the calories are kinda high. Loved your TJ haul!!

[@ivi122]

My goodness all of your what I eat in a day or recipes videos look amazing and so healthy and delicious

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you!! That means a lot to me ❤️

[@ivi122]

NikkiVegan you’re welcome. You put a lot of work into your channel and it shows!!!!!!!! Keep the recipe and what I eat in a day videos coming. I love them

[@errorerror1337]

Your haul + recipe vids are awesome! Keep em coming! Btw I do a similar salad with chickpeas that I've dubbed "Chuna Salad." OMG I love it. I usually add a splash of white vinegar and a dash of dijon which really helps give it some notes you don't get when leaving out mayo. Not crazy about eggplant in general but a recipe I would LOVE to see recreated is the Whole Foods date walnut cake they sell in the produce section. It only lists two ingredients on the package and every other recipe I've seen has a ton of other ingredients or isn't vegan. I just have no clue how they get the consistency on that "cake" but it is freaking addictive. Thanks again for another killer vid!!

[@justbarbara5564]

You could use the coconut chuncks in a curry! 😊 Let me know how it turns out!

[@konradehresman4140]

Love this! I don’t like when grocery hauls show me all this yummy food and then don’t show me what to do with it! ❤️❤️❤️✊🏻. Love your channel and you’re great on the vegan view !

[@Monster20200]

you can make trail mix with the coconut chunks

[@pinkcloverberry]

Have loved your recipe videos for the longest time Nicole ❤️ love that you mentioned the truffle chips would pair well with sparkling wine ✨

[@terrycarver2776]

Thanks for the ideas. Going to Trader Joes soon

[@mccod035]

I love your videos they are so helpful because I get bored easily so thank you

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Dorothy! I’m so glad this was helpful for you!! I have a bunch of grocery hauls like this on my channel so I hope you enjoy them 💚

[@dangernoodle9961]

Protip: if you want to make quinoa more flavorful you can also cook it in vegetable stock, not very cost effective but very yummy.

[@happycat9920]

My staples:potatoes,and a cruciferous vegetable, almond milk,bluberries,🍓 oats..oats..and oats!

[@NikkiVegan]

same same same!! always oats, ugh you get me

[@meatballjerry2554]

I might become vegan myself thanks for this video.

[@NikkiVegan]

Haha that’s awesome! Vegan food is bomb 👌 hope you enjoy trying more of it ☺️❤️

[@wholefoodiebeauty5912]

Yay!y favorite videos are these hauls with recipes!! ❤️ thank you! 👌🏼

[@NikkiVegan]

That’s good to know! So glad you liked this video 🙌❤️

[@ritzafrancois4863]

I agree!

[@Lilith__asmr]

Be careful with the coconut chunks when using them in the blender! They’re extremely hard and not easy to blend but I just nuke them in the microwave before adding to smoothie :) they’re very yummy in tropical smoothie bowls

[@NikkiVegan]

Good to know! Thanks Lily! 💕

[@Daren_PNW]

I'm curious if anyone's tried steaming them; 'tryna use less microwaving, lol.

[@mereditharaujo1758]

I always get peppers, zucchini, and yellow squash. We also rotate different vegetables. I'm not vegan but I like trying out different recipes so I've loved seeing your channel for some new meal ideas. Will you post a video for easy meals to take to school/work when the school year gets closer? I need new ideas! Thanks!

[@freeraindropblue]

Nice love the creamy whites sauce

[@sienaabbott645]

I love stores like trader joes and natural grocers, they're like a vegan paradise! Love the video!

[@NikkiVegan]

Agreed! So fun 💚 and thanks! Happy you liked it

[@tayjessrandom]

I never thought to use hummus instead of vegan mayo in chickpea tuna! I’ve got to try it!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Taylor! I love it, use a garlic hummus if you can. Such a great way to add creaminess and flavor without adding a ton of fat :) Let me know was you think when you try it!

[@oliviaharris7616]

I love using the coconut chunks in my favorite smoothie!: 3 bananas Handful of kale 4 coconut chunks 2 scoops of cacao Dates (I like it super sweet so I put about 8-10 in) 2 handfuls of almonds A cup of coconut milk A tablespoon of flax seeds A tablespoon of hemp seeds!! A dash a vanilla

[@oliviaharris7616]

This makes enough for 3 smoothieS:)

[@amelian9677]

Ooh the brownie crisps are vegan 🌱 😊 good news

[@amandajmb6228]

It's so nice to see you posting videos again! What about a salad with grated carrot and the coconut? Kind of like a slaw, maybe with a dressing of yogurt and curry powder?

[@NikkiVegan]

That sounds awesome 🙌❤️

[@faithhorbatch6671]

could you make a video once you think about cool ways to use that coconut? i never see anyone cook with fresh/frozen coconut like that and am really curious about it!

[@bostonveganbean4928]

Such a great video! I would LOVE to see you reconstruct that eggplant hummus!!! I hound my TJ's staff for it but they say they don't stock it on the east coast PLEASE give it a go!!

[@NikkiVegan]

Weird that it’s only in some stores! I’ll definitely it’ll try to recreate it for you ☺️💙

[@kcs4865]

Also an east coaster who would love a recreation of the eggplant hummus 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@bostonveganbean4928]

I have no idea what it even taste like just know that so many love it! We have faith in you Nikki! You should package up your creation and market it over here on the east since TJ's isn't including us :)

[@annaliese724]

"Yay... Tempeh?" haha that made me laugh 😂 These videos are super helpful since you include recipes as well! Heading to trader Joe's rn 👍❤

[@NikkiVegan]

Haha glad you enjoyed this video and that you found it helpful! Have fun at the store, let me know if you find any gems that I need to add to my list! ☺️💙

[@pamelaq6185]

hahaha, the tempeh part of the video 😂😂😂 love all your videos, including this one... you have such a knack for making recipes and what's even better?...you share them w all of us ❤

[@ThisCrazyyGirl18]

pls recreate that hummus! I've always wanted to try it but no Trader Joe's in FL carry it :/

[@margaretmartin6620]

I wish we had Trader Joe's in Canada.

[@NikkiVegan]

Hopefully soon! 💚💚💚

[@jbell9179]

Exactly! Seems like every vegan channel has Trader Joe hauls or recipes based from their products. Canada has gotten better but vegan products are still hard to find in grocery stores 😞 It's frustrating.

[@amberlymathews8362]

I used my coconut chunks in smoothies amazing

[@cbdislife2514]

coconut bacon!!!! yaaaas ! and omg i just had a kale walnut pesto at this vegan pizza place YUMMO!!!

[@MaintainingMichele]

I ALWAYS have avocados, salsa, black beans, potatoes, some kind of green salad mix, bananas, steel cut oats, rice, and the garlic sauce from Trader Joes :)

[@EvolutionofMasha]

What a great haul! Also, I loved seeing what you used with the groceries. That sun dried tomato quinoa looks flavorful!

[@garden_therapy_nj]

I liked that said dressing. I bought it one day because it just looked refreshing. It had a strong taste to it so you don't need alot. Maybe that's better!!! Lol

[@NikkiVegan]

Yeah those herbs are very powerful! It’s great as a veggie dip too 👌💚

[@csh28]

Great ideas. Not sure if you've tried the Tomato & Basil hummus from Trader Joe's, but I really like that one. Would love to see you recreate the hummus options from Trader Joe's if you do experiment with them.

[@celenewithane]

Omg please recreate the eggplant hummus!

[@gsfm9699]

For the coconut chunks, check out some of the most recent video's on Christine Kobzef's channel, she makes lattes and date shakes with them. I always eyed them at TJ's too but wasn't sure what to do with them. I was so glad when she showed some recipes with them!

[@NikkiVegan]

Awesome! Thank you 🙌❤️ you had me at date shake 😋

[@yuliacherednikov9903]

Those coconut chunks.. I just eat them like a snack. 🤤 or you can make an Indian coconut chutney. My mother in law makes it in a blender!

[@NikkiVegan]

Ah good to know! Thank you :)

[@jbell9179]

Lots of great ideas , thank you 😊

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks! so glad that you liked this video! Hope you're having a good day

[@VeganGroceryLife]

Ok i have never seen those brownie crisps and I live at TJ’s! So excited to try these!!! And I have only used those frozen coconut chunks for smoothies. They are pretty good in a smoothie though.

[@takemeaway99]

Thank you Nicole for another great video! Trader Joe’s is my go-to store! Just a couple more days until my one year veganiversary! Yay!

[@NikkiVegan]

CONGRATS 🎉 that’s awesome!! How does it feel one year in?

[@cg-fb9ct]

Congratulations Kristen on your one year of being vegan.💐

[@takemeaway99]

It feels great! However, my first year I was just figuring things out and eating a lot of processed foods. I want to lose weight so this next year I need to focus on eating whole plant based foods and less processed crap. I’m not a good cook so it’s a challenge for me.

[@NikkiVegan]

you're awesome :)

[@NikkiVegan]

That's awesome! Going more full pant based is easy if you take it slow. If you're used to eating vegan burgers and fries and then go straight to only eating kale salads you're going to hate it. I always say "focus on adding more fresh foods to what you're already eating." So if you're having a burger and fries, keep having that but ADD a kale salad on side. Or if you're having cereal, add some banana slices and fresh berries. I really think it's the most realistic approach because you begin to feel amazing with the inclusion of more fresh plant foods, and you'll slowly start to crave them (and how good they make you feel) so you'll naturally start eating more of them :) I have tons of healthy meal ideas and recipes on this channel to help you. Hope you find it helpful and congrats again! :)

[@leaxgreen]

Please do the eggplant hummus recipe! I do not have a trader joe's where I live but have been dying to try it!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Lea! I made the first batch today and it's good but I'm going to change one little thing to make it perfect! can't wait to share with you guys, its SOOOO easy :)

[@chelseakennedy5386]

Guess it’s time for a Trader Joe’s trip!

[@kimt9797]

I just bought your breakfast recipe e-book! I know it's a lot of work, but I would love it if you'd make another one with your other recipes like the curry chickpea and vegan tuna salads.... And all the other yummy things you make. It would be nice to have them all in one spot for reference. 🌱💚

[@NikkiVegan]

Thank you for buying my book Kim! That means so much to me, I hope you enjoy it! And yes, the goal is to have all of my recipes in books hopefully at book stores all over the world one day ☺️💙 I’m workin on it! Hope you’re having a great day, and again thank you ✨

[@kimt9797]

NikkiVegan Yay! Can't wait! 🌱💚

[@ladyvibe1]

Hey!! I'm a new subscriber to your channel and I love how you make everything so easy and effortless!! And I too love me some vegan tuna salad.... Next time you go to trader Joe's get the "everything but the bagel" seasoning. I've used it on avocado toast, vegan tuna salad, tofu egg salad you name it!! Give it a try sooooo good!

[@NikkiVegan]

Oooo yeah I forgot about that! I used to get it all the time. Adding that to my list for next time ☺️💚 thanks!

[@NikkiVegan]

Also thanks for subscribing! That means so much to me ❤️

[@ladyvibe1]

NikkiVegan you're so welcome mama and thanks for the truffle chips I'm definitely adding that to my list!!!

[@VeganWifeLife]

You should definitely recreate the eggplant hummus! My Trader Joe’s doesn’t carry it, and I’ve been wanting to try it!

[@B33777]

I was just at my local Trader Joe’s on Friday and I also got the frozen coconut chunks and green goddess dressing. I’m planning on using them in smoothie recipes that I wanna try from Earthy Andy. I also picked up some of their new vegan kale pesto and made vegan kale pesto garlic bread last night with it along side some Cajun cauliflower Alfredo I made. Love that I’m not the only one who keeps a lot of frozen veggies just because they really do keep longer than the fresh ones. Also I love the Dr Pragers burgers but this time I got the vegetable masala burgers and they are just the bomb. I make them with grilled tomato and fresh guacamole with zucchini fries on the side. Thanks for the video!!! ☺️🙏

[@NikkiVegan]

Omg this comment has me drooling! Lol everything sounds so good. I make a cauliflower already recipe too, LOVE the idea of adding Cajun seasoning. Genius! I’ll def get that pesto next time and make some garlic bread. Thanks for all of the ideas hun! ☺️💚

[@B33777]

NikkiVegan you’re welcome! You’re gonna love it!! It was delicious. Wish I could insert a pic here.

[@margaretmartin6620]

Another great video with amazing recipes. I will be trying them all. I am also a great believer in frozen fruit and vegetables. Thanks, Nikki!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks you Margaret ☺️ I am too! Frozen fruits and veggies are such a big help on busy days

[@shannonwestern3686]

Your recipes are so unique! I love them❤

[@lublu3991]

Great job!!!! Continue shining!!! Vegan diet changed my family!!! We are so much healthier!!! Go vegan!!! You the best!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thank you 🙌❤️

[@emman7353]

So many ideas! Thank you 😊

[@NikkiVegan]

Of course! I’m happy to share and that you found this video helpful ☺️💙

[@GreenEyEdBeauty-lu2bj]

Thanks for sharing we love Trader Joe's ❤️

[@MaritsaDarman]

Trader Joe's has frozen vegetable patties, you should try them; I tried the one that's cauliflower and broccoli and it was so good

[@NikkiVegan]

Ooooo good to know! Thank you!

[@sandyhossman7771]

Please recreate the eggplant hummus

[@lisag4527]

I have a running list of things I want to try from trader Joe's lol (closest one is 45min from me) & the eggplant hummus is on the list. Would love a recipe!

[@NikkiVegan]

Good to know! I’ll try and make it for you! I find that homemade hummus is always better anyway so hopefully I can make a good copycat recipe for you 💚

[@jannabanigan4612]

Awesome video. Loved these ideas. Thanks ♡

[@molly4495]

You should grill those coconut chunks! I would do it either on the grill or on a grill pan. Serve with a squeeze of lime juice and sweet chili sauce.

[@NikkiVegan]

Oooooo what a cool idea! Thanks hun 🙌❤️

[@flortirelli7203]

Absolutely love your channel!!! Keep it up. Greetings from Argentina!!!

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thanks! I'm so glad that you like my channel :)

[@lauralvegan2835]

So many great ideas!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Laura! ☺️💙

[@elainawilson7843]

I would love if you could recreate the eggplant hummus! It’s always sold out at my local Trader Joe’s so I’ve never had it even though I’ve been meaning to for years LOL

[@ChrisTina-ix1ig]

More great info. Keep up the good work!

[@alexandraregan2407]

this video is soooo helpful! thank you

[@NikkiVegan]

I'm so glad! :)

[@gailwinterbourne6134]

You can make curry with the coconut chunks. Great video btw!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks! And yeah that’s a good idea! Would you blend them or keep them whole?

[@krystalking1637]

I certainly agree with needing frozen veggies. I loathe wasting food. I have come to the conclusion that I need to purchase mostly frozen veggies and some fruits or shop early so that I can freeze all of it before going to bed.

[@melissamorello1700]

Trader Joe’s discontinued eggplant hummus so if you could recreate a recipe for it that would be so amazing! 🙏🏻🙌🏻❤️

[@NikkiVegan]

I did! Here you go ☺️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWLEfZabeqmYrck

[@melissamorello1700]

@@NikkiVegan thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗

[@pinkcloverberry]

Wish we had Trader Joe’s in Australia 🇦🇺

[@arlene1212]

The coconut chunks clogged up my blender so there still sitting in my freezer lol. Pls do a recipe for the eggplant hummus our Trader Joe's doesn't carry it. Thanks!

[@jackieharrington2732]

YES 🙌. I'm going to Trader Joes now and I'm vegan as well ❤️🐮 🐷 🐤 ❤️

[@NikkiVegan]

That’s awesome! Let me know if you find anything cool while you’re there ☺️💚

[@jackieharrington2732]

Have you tried the Turkish Apricots 😍. Tastes like a fruit roll up ❤️

[@dianeintheshire3693]

Thank you for a very helpful and interesting video.

[@NikkiVegan]

My pleasure! So glad you liked it!!

[@nematoaddd]

For the coconut chunks go to Markus and Cara's channel, they are always using that.

[@NikkiVegan]

Oooo ok will do, thank you 💙💙💙

[@Zutang777]

Maybe make a coconut Rice pudding. 😃

[@randombeautythingss]

I LOVE this kind of videos!!!

[@NikkiVegan]

Yay! I'm so glad! One of my favorite ways to make tempeh is to cut into cubes and toss it with tahini, sweet chili sauce, and a splash of soy sauce. Bake for 10 minutes at around 375 to crisp up the edges and serve warm on salads or in wraps. SO delicious! I have more specific info and a demo in some my older Trader Joes grocery hauls. Hope you enjoy!

[@visions_of_angels]

Yes please eggplant hummus!!!!

[@jaycee157]

Please recreate the eggplant humus if you have not done so as yet. Hek!!it is 5 years ago

[@NikkiVegan]

here you go! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWLEfZabeqmYrck Hope you enjoy this recipe!

[@jaycee157]

Thanks. I am trying to love eggplant. Lol

[@simplycaitb9354]

Definitely going to give the vegan tuna salad a whirl. Looks amazing! I’ve only recently started living a vegan lifestyle. I have so much more to learn. I find of all the videos I have watched about veganism you are at the top of my favourites list! The videos you make are to educate and your evaluations are what works for you. I love that you encourage everyone to make their own choices and come to their own conclusions. Keep on producing the goods :) Side note: my pointless superpower is always picking the perfect avocado. I guess that comes in handy when eating a plant based diet! I’m not super fond of their texture though their flavour is amazing. If you have any tips on sneaking them into food. I would love to see them 🤗

[@NikkiVegan]

First of all, that is NOT a useless superpower! Lol I do not posses that power so I’m very jealous 😂 Second, If you don’t like the texture I would blend them into sauces and dips! I’ll try to come up with some recipes for you 🥑 Deliciously Ella has a lot of recipes like that that you might enjoy in the meantime ☺️also that’s awesome that you went vegan! How long has it been? I’m so glad that you like my videos and find them helpful! That really means a lot to me 💙 hope you’re having a good day! Thanks for the encouragement and support ✨

[@simplycaitb9354]

I’ve been vegan for a month now but went vegetarian for about a month before that and there is no turning back! I feel so much better both mind and body. I’m excited to learn as much about the lifestyle as possible. I’m currently studying to become a food technology and textiles high school teacher and would love to be able to incorporate my vegan lifestyle into teaching...where possible 😁

[@traceym4590]

These are my all time favorite videos!!!

[@NikkiVegan]

I'm so glad! I love putting these together :) Where do you shop most often?

[@traceym4590]

Trader Joe's & Whole Foods :)

[@liz-cf2rv]

Id love if you'd re-create the eggplant hummus:)

[@JohannaZee]

In hoping that they carry the hummus in Portland, OR, so we can try it when we're there in a couple weeks.

[@NikkiVegan]

It’s really good but it’s also just kinda like a normal garlic hummus. The reason I always pick it up is that I like that it’s low fat and only has a few ingredients and it’s versatile enough to be a good hummus, pasta sauce, or salad dressing ☺️💙

[@JohannaZee]

NikkiVegan Thanks.

[@sarahpelletier8653]

Yay! Love these videos! 😁

[@christinaarundale8583]

I definitely want a copycat eggplant hummus recipe video, because I have never been able to try it since my local Trader Joe's doesn't carry it.

[@deegiimijiddorj720]

You are so creative and amazing 💕

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you! That’s so nice of you for say 💕

[@littlepatrinka7941]

PLEASE try to recreate that eggplant hummus, TJ’s on the East coast doesn’t carry it :-(

[@BettyHorn]

Please do the eggplant hummus! We can't get it here in the Trader Joe's in Florida!

[@xmbrly8015]

lol @ the commentary on the tempeh haha. also, not sure if you or the rest of the vegan view knows about this yet but you guys should check out VeganLadyBoss meet ups in LA! Just recently went to one here in NY and loved it!
