Healthy Vegan Grocery Haul + QUICK Meal Ideas

[@em-alice]

ok your avocado at 6 min is literally perfect

[@NikkiVegan]

right?! lol so rare this time of year

[@jackiemaye1731]

I love videos like this. How you grocery shop and then actually show us how you use the items and give us recipes. My all time favourite. Lots of love! ❤️

[@morganellyse]

Also, I love when you did the veganized video, where you alter a yummy recipe you've found to make it all vegan ! Like the grilled Tofu with quinoa and lemon Mayo dressing - one of my fav meals now! :)

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw yeah I loved that one too! Thanks for letting me know, those are fun to film :)

[@katzewarncke]

The combo of hummus and sauerkraut sounds really good, don't know why 😂😍

[@NikkiVegan]

Right? Kind of odd but the flavors and textures work so well together!

[@LTsunshine23]

More videos of what I eat in a day please. I love watching your videos because they are healthy and simple.

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks for letting me know! That means a lot to me. More what I ate today videos coming soon :)

[@MonochromeRainbowz]

I'd love to see more grocery hauls because you always give great recommendations for things I wouldn't have thought to buy before. 🙂

[@NikkiVegan]

Good to know! Thanks Amber! I have about 3 or 4 others on the channel you might like, and another coming next month

[@lenap4514]

I enjoy all of your videos! i always like to see new recipes to try, but honestly I just really enjoy all of your content - you make vegan cooking so accessible and you have such a lovely vibe. :)

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you Lena, that means a lot to me :)

[@paulaleach6058]

I love your grocery haul, what I eat, & recipe videos. Thank you for making them. FYI, I’m loving your natural hair color! Whatever you’re doing with your skin/makeup, you look fabulous!!

[@halliedominguez602]

This was my favorite video you've ever done Nicole! It was just one awesome idea after another and you have so many tips and combos that I never would've thought to put together but I'm sure is delicious!

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thanks Hallie, it makes me so happy to hear that you found it helpful :)

[@jillt.3195]

This is one of my favorite videos from you! I hope you come out with another cookbook because I love how everything you make is easy, healthy & delicious!

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw I’m so happy to hear that! I am planning on it ☺️💚

[@jholmie6016]

leeks are my FAVE!! can't wait for the soup recipe! loved this vid as always

[@christinavittorio3028]

I feel like that hummus/mustard dip is the simple deliciousness that I never knew I needed. Thank you! Great idea.

[@NikkiVegan]

so simple but absolutely delish! Especially with grainy, stone ground mustard :)

[@christinavittorio3028]

Yes! I’m mustard obsessed. I keep like 4 different kinda in my fridge 🤣

[@melindagross8604]

I love your easy meal recipes! They are so helpful!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Melina! I'm so glad you like them! It means so much to me

[@Star-333]

Loved the format of this video. I also loved the quick recipe ideas you gave us like with the butternut squash soup. I spend a lot of time cooking so I would love to see easy quick yet still healthy recipes- ideas like what you did with the squash and nutribullet 😊 I would also appreciate videos where you can sneak more greens in if you are not a big salad lover.

[@NikkiVegan]

Awesome, thank you for letting me know!

[@Meandering_with_Megan]

Thank you for this video! I find these types of videos so inspirational. I am that person who buys carrots and has no idea what to do with them! 🤣 Would love to see more videos like this on your channel. Thank you for making such easy nutritious meals with simple ingredients! 😁

[@NikkiVegan]

haha the struggle is real! Sometimes I juice them with lemons or oranges, maybe a little ginger (such a good combo) or I roast them whole with a tiny tiny bit of coconut oil, sage, rosemary, and sea salt. So good. Really loving them very finely shredded with lemon juice and sea salt though, such a nice texture. Sometimes I add golden raisins to the mix too. Adds a nice, subtle sweetness. So glad you like these kinds of videos! Means a lot to me to know that you find them helpful

[@morganellyse]

More eat in a days + recipes - I love everything you put up as we like the same types of food combos 😍 😘

[@SoCalMizfit]

You do a great job with video content already. My favorites are the grocery hauls and how you use the products and what I ate in a day.

[@em-alice]

oooh! love that dijon mustard hummus idea!

[@NikkiVegan]

it's SO good!

[@molly4495]

Loving the darker hair! I lived in Denmark for a year and we ate so many wasa crackers. I like your videos where you do a few different recipes like the one you did around the holidays with the 3 different side dish ideas. I dream about that tahini harissa cauliflower!

[@NikkiVegan]

haha I wish I could make it for you right now! lol Love that recipe :) So cool that you lived in Denmark! I would love to go there someday

[@em-alice]

OMG your hair looks 1,000 times more beautiful brunette!!! ( & trust me, it was soooooooo pretty blonde!!!!) love you and great video as always ;)

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank Emily! I feel like it's healthier this way...hopefully now it will grow :)

[@amazingone1234]

Great video! Thanks so much for all the time and effort you put into this. I’m always surprised you don’t have a million subscribers yet. I do my part though; I’m always recommending your channel to friends and coworkers who are interested or curious about our healthy vegan lifestyle. Peace.

[@NikkiVegan]

That means the absolute world to me! Thank you so much for telling friends and family about my channel

[@romathetomato8536]

Omgggg your hair !!! ! Brunette makes you glow . So beautiful Nikki !!❤️

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thanks Anya :) This is almost my natural color so I think it'll be easier to maintain. So glad you like it!

[@kcn54]

I use tea tree oil too! Amazing for breakouts. It’s part of my nightly skin care routine. Love these videos so much. Always very helpful. Thank you 💕

[@NikkiVegan]

Me too! It's made such a big difference :) Glad you liked this video!

[@jbell9179]

This is the exact type of video I want to see! Thank you for all the great tips-Im going to get a notebook and take notes 😊 Also, your white bean quacamole is fantastic! It's going to be a staple for sure.

[@ELLIESHAY]

love this video. Thank you for all the quick ideas. I'm always struggling to find something quick and easy😁

[@NikkiVegan]

SAME lol So glad this was helpful for you!

[@MegaErgie]

Definitely want to see a video about how you use tea tree oil for your skin! But I also really liked this video and would love to see more like it. It gave me a lot of great inspiration! Thank you!

[@morganburgess9698]

Your meal ideas are amazing. I am so picky but I feel like I would love everything in this video! Also, I would love to see a beauty/skin care video. Bring on all the grocery halls and what I ate today videos, they are my favorite!

[@morganburgess9698]

Also, some ideas on how to use leeks would be great! I have never cooked with them before.

[@NikkiVegan]

That's great to know! Thank you :) I'm so glad you liked the ideas in this video, let me know if you try any of these things!

[@NikkiVegan]

I use them like I use onions for sauces and soups, or just sautéed in a veggie bowl. They're so good for you and have a mild onion-y flavor :)

[@morganburgess9698]

Thank you! I am going to try incorporating them more.

[@Nadia-yo8lt]

Hi, Nikki! I've been binge watching your videos lately, and I wanted to say thank you for inspiration. I wanted to ask you to make a video for any food storage tips.vThank you!

[@traceym4590]

These are my favorite videos because they show how to use the items!

[@kellydenmeade2504]

I just discovered your channel and I love it. Today I have a snow day (I'm a teacher) and I'm binge watching vegan shows. Thank you

[@NikkiVegan]

Oh nice! Enjoy your day off!! Glad I can be a part of that, hope you like my videos

[@xsarahh1415]

These are my favorite videos of yours!! Love all the ideas!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thank you! I'm so glad you like them :) Thinking of doing a vegan at Target one soon

[@xsarahh1415]

That would be amazing! I'm a college student and the closest store to me is Target!

[@NikkiVegan]

oh awesome, good to know!

[@margaretmartin6620]

Happy New Year, Nikki! Love your recipe ideas. They are always so good. I also really like your hair now. It looks so nice and shiny and healthy. It also complements your skin better. You look glowy.

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Margaret :) It's closer to my natural hair color so it feels more natural now. Glad you like it!

[@pamw8102]

Recently discovered you and already you are a new favorite channel for me! Love the brunette hair, it looks great.

[@Mel-dg8wg]

Great video! Thank you for not only sharing your haul but the recipes to use them in! Very helpful!

[@mamagrahams9943]

Omg so happy I found this channel! Wicked awesome stuff in here! Thank you!

[@NikkiVegan]

Ae thanks :) I'm so glad you found me too! Hope you like my videos. Let me know if you have any requests

[@thecarnivorouskat]

You are amazing! Your recipes and snacks seem so doable! And I like the helpful tips like finely chopping or shredding your greens. So so true. I always like it better that way at restaurants, idk why I have never done that at home.

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Katie! Sometimes the smallest things make a huge difference ☺️

[@coco_kapfer]

Yummm! Just found your channel and I love it. Really enjoyed how you added ideas to the haul. So clever. I cant wait to watch more :)

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw that makes me so happy! I hope you love my videos, so glad you found my channel :)

[@kellyreadingbooks]

Must find the Mac n cheese! There's a Whole Foods opening down the street from my office this year. Pretty excited.

[@NikkiVegan]

Your video's are so inspiring!! Love all your tips and recipes and the ease of your recipies.

[@Sarah-gc6tu]

Great video! I love these grocery hauls/recipe idea videos you make!

[@lynfernandez1096]

I think my very favorite videos of yours are the vegan grocery hauls (at Trader Joe's or Whole Foods) with easy meal ideas! I would love to see a video on using tea tree and jojoba oils in skincare, that would be awesome! Xo

[@TrueBrytt]

I just recently randomly put garlic dill sauerkraut on hummus toast the other day! It was pretty good!

[@NikkiVegan]

haha great minds think alike!

[@TrueBrytt]

lol I didn't know if it was too different of a combo, never really saw anyone else do it, I'm glad I'm not the only one! I was just like, hmm wonder how this will taste and it was really good. My 3 year old wanted some of my "sour toast" too.

[@gnk1971]

Thank you for all the helpful videos. You're a sweetheart!

[@courtneymichelleb87]

Also, yes on the skin video!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Courtney :) more recipes coming very soon!

[@karenmiller1105]

Love all your videos. You give so much great info. Love the recipes the most.

[@NikkiVegan]

Good to know! Thanks so much Karen

[@Sparklinglips]

Loved the video! Perfect that you gave us idea about every grocery. So surprised when u showed the wasa crackers, since I'm from sweden I absolutely love them

[@hiicam]

Nikki you should do a q&a or updated “get to know me/50 facts about me” or something. I watch your videos all the time but still don’t feel like I *know* you! Also understand wanting to keep life private, though. :)

[@hiicam]

Or vlogs!!

[@christincavanaugh2357]

Lunch box videos. What to take to work with me that is easy, filling and yummy

[@ccap3211]

Loved this video! Lots of ideas all in one video!

[@sarahpelletier8653]

I love your grocery haul videos!! So much great ideas! Thank you ☺️🙏

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks! Got a new one coming out tomorrow 💙

[@JohannaZee]

Yeah, I'm looking forward to trying the new E2 Ravioli. Kite Hill makes one that I love, but it's pricey.

[@TinasAlteredLife]

Your Chili Lime Tacos are sooo good! I've eaten this for dinner all this week.

[@NikkiVegan]

aw I'm so happy to hear that! I love that recipe too. SO fresh and summery to me :)

[@MrHidden29]

I love all of these recipes thank you!!!

[@NikkiVegan]

I'm so glad!! Here's the mac and cheese recipe if you want to give it a try

[@MissHeloryKo]

WHAT I EAT IN A DAY VIDEOS!!

[@NikkiVegan]

[@CaitlynMcCartney]

Love your grocery hauls & what I ate in a day videos! Happy New Year xx

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks for letting me know Caitlyn! So helpful :) Happy New Year

[@lorip280]

These recipes look great! Yes let's see the beauty video. Thanks for the food inspiration !

[@NikkiVegan]

Great! Thanks for letting me know Lori :)

[@monsyd913]

I love hummus and grainy mustard...but never thought to combine them! Awesome idea! And is there anything better than avocado and lime? Divine! I love chickpeas tacos 💛

[@NikkiVegan]

Seems like we have very similar taste lol I'm happy this video gave you some new ideas!

[@nehas7992]

I love this video! We can really tell how much love and thought go in your videos :)

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you for noticing! That means a lot to me. I'm so glad you can feel how much I truly love making these videos and sharing this info :) So glad you liked it!

[@jennibean71]

I love the bean idea for the guacamole because I really could eat 6 avocados!😂

[@NikkiVegan]

Seriously same lol like, easily 😂🥑💚

[@em-alice]

btw i have always loved the hot cold salad thing, too! i really like breaded baked "chicken" on it

[@NikkiVegan]

right! feels more like a meal that way :)

[@cassiebolden966]

Would love to see what you do with tea tree oil! I have gone off birth control before, and my skin freaksssss out. I'm wanting to get off it again, but I'm afraid of the after effects. Thanks for all the awesome content!

[@NikkiVegan]

Cassie Bolden a video about tea tree oil is coming soon 😊 and I know what you mean! It’s taken months for my body to adjust and I think it’s still adjusting but it’s teaching me to have patience with my body and take really good care of my self...video about that coming soon too 😊💚

[@kawanda9102]

What I eat in a day! And recipe videos 😃

[@NikkiVegan]

Working on a new one now! Happy you like them :)

[@kimmyjeans2]

What I ate videos and grocery hauls are great. also favorite products and I would love to see pantry and fridge tour as well as how to keep produce fresh.

[@NikkiVegan]

Love those ideas! Thank you 💚

[@melaniemartinez3269]

I love the Kashi cereals

[@NikkiVegan]

same! this one is good! not to sweet but still satisfies my sweet tooth :)

[@VeganGroceryLife]

This should be labeled "Whole Foods Haul" , lol! I practically live there and save money by buying their brand and bulk. I use that jojoba oil on my whole body because it leaves my skin so soft. I always buy that butternut squash for a soup i make with those yams. I get all the varieties as well. The purple one tastes like candy but the Hannah Yams are my faves ( the beige ones). I loved the Scandinavian carrot salad recipe. I am trying that!

[@NikkiVegan]

Ummmm....we have SO much in common! lol I practically live there too and I LOVE the Hannah potoatoes. Definitely my favorite :) so funny

[@VeganGroceryLife]

NikkiVegan I never knew they existed until I found them at WF! I loved orange ones but after the Hannah ones??? I found a new love.

[@LaMusique192]

Love the new hair, girl!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks hun! Feels fresh for 2018 :)

[@VeganGroceryLife]

I liked your blond hair but I think I like brown better!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks hun! This is closer to my natural color so it's way easier to maintain :)

[@ivi122]

Missleigh YES! I just commented that on another video. The dark hair looks amazing on her

[@jem2118]

Videos with packed lunch ideas... ones that we can make ahead and wont be soggy and gross when we warm them up.

[@jasminehayes1122]

Video requests: What I eat in a day Weight loss tips Dressings Thanks so much! In going to try that shredded carrot recipe for sure-looks delish!

[@NikkiVegan]

All great ideas! Thanks Jasmine :)

[@NikkiVegan]

Try it! I just take very finely shredded carrots and add fresh lemon juice, sea salt and pepper. Also, adding golden raisins to the carrots is good too! Adds a nice subtle sweetness to the carrots which is good. Ugh. Wish had some now actually lol let me know what you think!

[@babydollkarina28]

I love your darker hair! You look like Julianna Rancic 🙂💗

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Ella! I love her!

[@suzq2744]

Rosemary would go well in that soup!💯💚

[@NikkiVegan]

So true! I love rosemary :)

[@monsyd913]

I have to add that I'm not Scandinavian, but my grandmother always had wasa crackers. They are yummy!

[@NikkiVegan]

They really hard! I love how crunchy they are! Glad you can relate 😊

[@scmerlino]

love the new hairr!!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Steven!

[@pamelaq6185]

love this video ❤👍 happy new year! 😘

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Pamela! Happy New Year to you too

[@volcanicred8011]

Great tips, thank you!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks! So glad you liked it

[@moosenavi]

can we have the mac and cheese link? :) i want to make it right now!

[@NikkiVegan]

here ya go! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHyTqZaPjqp0bbM&t= It's my favorite. Hope you love it!

[@moosenavi]

I just made and it's soooo good!

[@517cw]

do you have the 'how not to die' cookbook? I got it as a christmas gift and I've already made quite a few recipes from it and they're all soooo good & simple to make!!

[@NikkiVegan]

No but it's on my list! Looks awesome. What have you made from the book so far?

[@517cw]

raw brownies (these are SO good), two types of veggie burgers - one was black bean and the other was a beet/black bean burger (this one was my favourite!!), a savoury spice blend, ranch dip, umami sauce, a stir fried rice style dish, and I think one or two others but I can't remember them off hand lol! Ive pretty much exclusively used the book since I got it if I want to follow a recipe and not make something up on the fly

[@leesabee3]

PS I also struggle with breakfast ideas - esp for my kids so some ideas would be great!

[@patty-cf7jj]

I make a Blender soup like that with butternut squash, cauliflower and instead of cashews, I use soaked cashews. But for that I would definitely suggest only doing if you have a vitamix or blendtec.

[@nadjakabbour8706]

New hair looks sooooo good Nikki. These videos are super helpful! Would also like more what I eat in a day and vlogs. Yay for the video about your skin, and yay for you being scandinavian, I'm from Sweden :)

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw that's cool! I was raised by my mom and grandma who are both from Norway so Scandinavian culture is very close to my heart. I will definitely make more of those kinds of videos, thanks for letting me know what you'd like to see :)

[@dianel1765]

Glad I found your channel. Please share the leek soup recipe. TFS...

[@Anna-qz6xw]

Wow willing to try all of it!! :)

[@NikkiVegan]

aw that's awesome :) hope you enjoy hun!

[@hannahnickerson8814]

I would love to see a natural beauty routine! I recently tried the no-heat challenge to try and bring my hair back to good health, and it changed my hair dramatically! I use to style it every day and it took hrs to air dry, and was always frizzy if i didn't style it. You should try combining rosemary, peppermint, and lavender essential oils with the jojoba oils to make a hair mask. Those all help to promote hair growth

[@NikkiVegan]

Oh cool! Thanks Hannah :) I'll try to make a mask like that soon. Love stuff like that. I also only heat style my hair like 2-3 times a week...actually sometimes only like once a week lol depends on how much I have to film and what not. Most days I let it air dry and put it in a braid with some oil in the ends

[@xoxoElsaxoxo]

Love your brown hair! Keep it that way, it looks amazing!

[@NikkiVegan]

I think I will! I've been liking it this way... way more natural :) Glad you like

[@genevievehorn8159]

Love this video. Please make more.💗

[@michellebeckham6402]

I’ve never tried butternut squash, but would love to try your macaroni recipe. My question is if the butternut squash is on the sweet side, I definitely prefer a salty mac. Thanks for sharing wonderful recipes!

[@NikkiVegan]

I hear you! With the spices and the other ingredients it's salty and savory :) Try it and let me know what you think!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHyTqZaPjqp0bbM&t=

[@michellebeckham6402]

NikkiVegan I definitely will. Thank you!!

[@michellebeckham6402]

NikkiVegan does the cashew butter need to be raw? I have a jar but it’s roasted. Thanks for any input.

[@marycaito8737]

Your hair 🤩

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Mary! I'm having fun with it :)

[@SA-hy6nw]

Loved this! I’ve made your Mac & cheese recipe a few times now & you’re right, it never disappoints! 😊

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks! I'm thrilled you like it! So easy, right? :)

[@SA-hy6nw]

NikkiVegan so easy & so good!
