Plant Based Grocery List Made Simple

[@kathiemott3988]

I have been plant based for about six years now. This is the first time I have come across a simple shopping list that actually uses real and simple foods, most of which I already use. I have actually made a potato soup using potatoes and plant milk. It was actually yummy! I'm going to try that with purple potatoes next. With broccoli and cauliflower, I like to make nuggets. I make my own breading to cover and bake. Better than chicken nuggets! I also use riced cauliflower in my ground 'meat', with super finely chopped mushrooms, ground walnuts, tomato paste, and finely chopped onion. I have used carrots and celery in stir-fry, with onion, bell peppers, eggplant, and this little green squash that comes from Mexico and sometimes Costa Rica. Sometimes I add super firm tofu. I have so many different way to fix beans. I like a variety. The hard one to find in this area is red lentil. I may need to go online for that. I use a variety of squash, just not zucchini or yellow squash. Those make me nauseous and I lose my appetite. Pureed pumpkin goes into my chili. I use a ton of bell peppers in a variety of colors.I love to make smoothies with spinach and kale. Blueberries make a purple smoothie and blackberries make a pink smoothie. I enjoy a variety of whole grains, and again may need to find some of them online. I use a lot of tomatoes. so many different ways to use them. Love my berries, bananas, apples, fresh mandarin oranges, pears, black grapes (gets removed from the stems and put into freezer), melons, etc. I make my own veggie stock from veggie cuttings and peels. That way I know what is in it and not all that extra stuff that is not needed. I process ground walnuts with dates and make into walnut/date balls and put them into the freezer. Nice when I need something sweet with a touch of fat. Cashews I usually use for making some of my cheeses. For some unknown reason I'm thinking of red cabbage soup with tofu and fire-roasted corn and some jackfruit. Haven't tried this yet. Hope it tastes good when I make it. Don't know what seasons to use yet. I have problems being able to tolerate chili peppers, so I usually use cumin powder and chili powder. Thank you for sharing this list. Looks like I rambled on again.

[@PiperNana]

Thanks for the tips!

[@cjhunt7723]

Thank you so much for your input. I have been plant based for 6 years also and I get so excited about food and being in the garden & kitchen. I love a challenge of creating healthy PB recipes out of Comfort food that I used to eat. I have become a Nutritionist also❤

[@Karrdeh]

Can you share how you make your nuggies? They sound very good.

[@kathiemott3988]

@@Karrdeh I mix together whole wheat flour, plant milk, a mix of water and ground flax seeds for the egg substitute, and whatever seasoning I feel like using at the time. I make enough to cover the cauliflower and broccoli bites. Place on a parchment lined baking pan and bake at about 350 for about 20 to 45 minutes, depending on whether I used raw or precooked veggies. Let cool a few minutes so as not to burn yourself eating the yummyness.

[@davidbyers3928]

I'm allergic to nuts No peanuts , No walnuts and I'm just learning this plant based shopping stuff Happen to come to this video because I'd wanted to see with my own eyes Just what does a plant based food shopping look like Want to thank you guys for your great ideas I'm a disabled veteran get paid monthly So starting this Oct 1 I'm jumping in head first .Wish me luck and you I'm going to subscribe as well.

[@beneitaflemmer6030]

That veggie stock is absolutely FABULOUS! I will never go without it! And its just me so it last a long time!

[@FabulousHealthtlc]

This is my grocery list too. I agree on the fruit comment. So we buy pre chopped pineapple, melon, mango and tonnes of berries because they are so easy to eat as snacks. I’m not messing up my kitchen to chop up a watermelon 🍉!! Dillon- never apologize for promoting your products. They are AWESOME 😎!!

[@ts2603]

I love that veggie broth. I will make it strong for a sipping broth, regular strength for sauteing, and will somtimes add your dehydrated veggies to make a simple easy soup 😊

[@dazocat5566]

I wish i had friends In real life like you guys!❤🙏thanks for existing in the youtube universe!~sending love from a fellow vegan❤️🙏😊✨✌️🌱

[@suzanneh4275]

I agree 💯

[@omasstories2746]

Learned how to cut mushrooms and onion from you! You developed my love for chopping! Thank you!!

[@WellYourWorld]

So nice of you!

[@926paaja]

Some liquid smoke on mushrooms baked in the oven until totally dried… yum! Little pieces of mushcan love it on top of your Mac and cheese recipe

[@WellYourWorld]

Sounds great, we usually do the same with mushrooms but sautéed instead

[@suzanneh4275]

Thanks for the video! Needing inspiration here as I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with starting this journey. I’ve been vegetarian for a few years now, but that does not mean I’ve been eating healthy!!! Way too much cheese, bread/pasta/crackers and oil. in the next few days I am going to watch some of your cooking videos and selected just a few that sound the best to me, buy what I need and take them for a test drive. 🚗 Beep! Beep! 🚗 Here I come! 🚗

[@dianamarie1652]

It does take time and our bodies have to adjust to eating whole real food, I slip up occasionally but go right back. It’s way better way of eating. Just take your time.

[@WellYourWorld]

Yes I think we can be a big help. Thanks for joining us!

[@seventhdayissabbath8747]

Just wanted to say.. I love your veggi broth, it really is much more flavorful than what you buy in the cartons and much healthier... Thanks for making it an option.

[@janetgarcia3273]

Me too. It's much better. And I don't waste some from a box if I don't use it all right away. I make what I need when I need it.

[@tonyalewis9053]

Refried beans from dried beans is superior; otherwise, canned is fine. I absolutely love your B & W art film inserts, keep them coming! 😆

[@cindystrother7710]

REEBS you and DILLON feel like family who really cares thank YOU so much for caring and sharing 😊😊😊

[@luluandmeow]

Chestnuts are one of my all-time favourite foods, I grew up in Italy where it's easy to buy dried chestnuts, I live in London now so I'm thinking of buying a dehydrator to dry them. Chestnuts are not just good for roasting, try boiling them for about an hour (less if they're smaller) and scooping the flesh out with a spoon, so good! You can also microwave them (score them first) if you're in a hurry or buy chestnuts vacuum-packed. I can't even start my day without a big cantaloupe melon + watermelon salad, an essential even on the coldest winter mornings, it hydrates me after a night's sleep and this is just the start of a big fruit-based breakfast. Also frozen berries, so good for you!

[@Grateful4plants]

What a great video subject! I’ve seen grocery hauls from people, but never an actual list of staples to get every week. Great job Dillon and Reebs!

[@stacieg2919]

Love your channel!❤🥬🥑🥦🥭🍄‍🟫

[@Letstieknots]

I cook beans and freeze leftovers on a sheet pan then store in freezer bags, to put in smoothies.

[@cindystrother7710]

THANK YOU so much REEBS and DILLON for showing how easy it is to eat this way AWESOME 👍👍👍

[@purityandplants]

Excellent video for a newbie like me! I’m going to have to watch it again and take notes this time 😅✍🏾🤓

[@susanglasburgh7076]

I use your veggie stock so often - better than what I can buy in the store!

[@WellYourWorld]

Happy to hear that!

[@newhouseb7]

@@WellYourWorldit’s such an impressive product!

[@SallySaratoga-ok7et]

You are right about canned white beans - it is impossible to find them without salt. So I cook up a large batch in the instant pot and then freeze them until I need them. And the veggies I use in almost every recipe (onions, celery, carrots, peppers, zucchini, cabbage, etc.) I slice/dice/chop them all up in the food processor, and then freeze them. Makes meal prep MUCH quicker. I have large freezer bags full of each veggie, ready to just toss into the pot.

[@WellYourWorld]

Great ideas!

[@paulsuchy6210]

Farro is my favorite thing to jazz up my salads.

[@staceystith2348]

Me too couldn't live without it. Cracked wheat too!

[@newhouseb7]

Love it in chili too!

[@jeanettegiles6155]

I know that you said if you but farro you don’t eat it but here is my suggestion. Buy Trader Joe’s Farro which cooks in the same amount of time as quinoa. The mix quinoa and farro together and use them in your nourish bowl or grain bowl. The combination is much much satisfying and delicious than straight quinoa.

[@queenbee7819]

Great list. Other staples are (any) plant milk, flax seeds & key spices.

[@staceystith2348]

My shopping list includes everything you mentioned plus corn on the cob, peas, green beans and sometimes fresh beets and rutabaga. Good info for newbies, of which I'm only 4 months in.

[@shmoovalia]

Great point on the heat tolerance, I'll need to work on that to make meal time even more enjoyable!

[@kpstardust8974]

Love the reminder to keep it simple! Shopping, cooking, and eating doesn’t have to be hard or complicated when eating WFPB!Saw you have a new soup mix. I’m going to order a bunch for my emergency pantry and my work travel pantry! Love the dehydrated vegetables, going to stock up on that again. Thanks for another great video! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@tkuchrn]

Thank goodness for a simple list.. I’ve given up on plant based after 3 attempted failures until I found your channel ordered date sugar from you thanks!/ terri

[@WellYourWorld]

That’s wonderful news. Was it just too complicated before or a different reason that we were able to help with that brought you back?

[@lindapetersen2875]

I love the nuttiness of farro and use it periodically instead of rice. Love adding farro to a roasted vegetable salad to make it heartier

[@cindystrother7710]

Love that you show ways to eat this way by using can products and frozen products awesome 💯

[@kimwomble9719]

If you have Azure standard drop in your area. I get all of my dry beans through them. I can't have salt, so dry is so cheap and easy!

[@suzannemccabe386]

I love the idea of using healthy fats like a condiment ❤ totally agree with it and I’m going to start making that change today 👍

[@misterincreds5341]

Thank you for another great video full of very good advice. I was so overwhelmed initially with everything I thought I had to eat, and I really appreciate the way you both streamline things. Now I keep things pretty simple and honestly have found that I'm enjoying it.

[@kitty_karry_all]

[@alexiasherman3358]

Love love your Veggie Broth. I use it in everything from stir fry to stews. 😋 Delicious addition to any meal.

[@dianamarie1652]

Love the veggie broth mix

[@ocelotcat]

Great video, I can get overwhelmed with how much I need to get etc. I have to think in terms of just sticking to a few main dishes and keeping it simple as you said. Sometimes I can't do any cooking due to chronic pain issues and it's helpful to just have a really quick dump and go meal.....I do have fresh fruits dessert, it's good and has a lot of fiber too. Thank you for keeping it simple and easy, I appreciate you two 🙏💕

[@CatHugs]

As usual, great advice.

[@luluandmeow]

Kabocha squashes are a staple whenever they're in season, otherwise sweet potatoes are amazing and I don't need to add salt to these, unlike ordinary potatoes that I always need to salt. To stay slim I microwave riced cauliflower and eat it with my favourite sauce instead of pasta. I buy a lot of frozen veggies: Brussels sprouts, spinach, broccoli, green beans. Chopped tomatoes, garlic and red onions, fresh basil and/or other herbs are a staple too. Mushrooms are amazing and very low cal: enoki mushrooms are a fantastic substitute for pasta at a fraction of the calories.

[@janswitzer2790]

What a great grocery list, Dillon and Reebs! Thank you for keeping things so easy and simple. I have a similar standard grocery list based on Dr Fuhrman’s gbombs (greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds). Of course I add other foods to the list like cucumbers, tomatoes, and carrots. I love eating cukes almost every day!

[@smallfootprint2961]

[@WellYourWorld]

[@kimwick1186]

Great video! Maybe a cooking show idea in the future would be recipes using those other grains, like millet or buckwheat.

[@sweetkitty3249]

Most of them can be used instead of rice. Faro & millet work well. Millet is especially bland in flavor, so it works in a lot of meals. Quinoa, barley, & buckwheat have a more distinct flavor so it's a little harder to switch with rice, but given the right recipe, they taste so good.

[@kimwick1186]

@@sweetkitty3249 thank you. I do use quinoa a lot but never tried buckwheat or millet and thought a recipe with either would be a good place to start, especially if they need ideas for upcoming cooking shows 😁

[@marge201]

Farro and sorghum are great. They're chewy and delicious but must be cooked with enough water so each grain is thoroughly cooked.

[@LaLayla99]

I love your simplicity and pragmatism!

I love me a raw potatoe! My family eats them raw and they are sooo good.

[@luluandmeow]

It's really easy to prepare a butternut squash, just cut in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and microwave. No need to peel. For flavour, I love oil-free sundried tomatoes and also sundried veggies from Lidl in the UK, part of their Italian week that they have a few times a year, I just stock up and they last forever, very low cal too
