Thanks for the upload!

[@ElenaLopez-tz8fi]

Nisha girl! That tofu salad sandwich was a life changer! Just made it yesterday and it blew my mind 🤯

[@naisaetern6892]

You’re the fricken GOAT! You deserve so much more followers 😍

[@Carletto69]

@RainbowPlantLife I'm trying to get the PDF copy of these recipes. But it keeps saying my email is invalid 😭

[@nostalgia_kills]

What’s a good substitute for arugula or kale. I’m allergic to that whole family. I usually use spinach. Would that we okay?

[@PickUpLimes]

Love to see the talking as you cook, Nisha, feels like I'm there in the kitchen with you - this all looks incredible! *drooling*

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww thank you my dear! I wish we could be in the kitchen together. One day :)

[@erykasr1]

Oo I'd love that. You're both great!

[@OGronron]

Can’t tell you how many times I feel like I am watching the vibrant pick up limes channel when I watch yours. You are awesome girl. Keep those healthy videos and tips coming.

[@juliamourdid8696]

Both PUL and Rainbowplant life are gorgeous girls. Your videos are so pleasing ❤️❤️❤️

[@BeehLuvs3]

Awe! Love you both 😍...I’ve been a fan of Pick Up Limes from her beginning days & now I’m super thankful to discover RainbowPlantLife since I’m transitioning into Vegan 🙏🏽...Nisha is so entertaining & love all her the options she gives 💕

[@Sarah-un3vk]

I love these kinds of videos! Super attainable and realistic yet fun and not something I would've been able to come up with on my own. Thank you!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

I’m so glad you think so Sarah! That’s the best kind of feedback :)

[@zbrooks1252]

Love that you're using leftover ingredients from other meals to create a weeks-worth of dishes. Cooking something from scratch each day can be unrealistic at times. So this is refreshing, relatable and doable. Kudos 🤗

[@jilldoubell-smith3646]

I loved this 10 ingredient idea. Please do more!!! Perhaps one for dinners 🤩

[@kristinegustavsen4209]

I just love these foodprep videos! They are so thorough, especially with the pdf file :) Im starting my first "real" 8-4 full time job after finishing my studies on monday so this food prep is perfect :D

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Hi Kristine, so glad you love the video and pdf! Good luck on your first full-time job and congrats on finishing your studies!

[@marirose756]

Yes including the PDFs makes things all the more helpful especially when setting up my grocery delivery list. Thnx Nisha!

[@cookingsmart1235]

I just made the pesto sauce with spinach instead of oregano and my family LOVED it. Usually they hate everything I make but they loved this. Will definitely make more of your recipes

[@surayyah7503]

Go YOU !!!

[@MagicSantos2]

You’re so creative! All the ingredients are so easy to find! I appreciate your channel, it’s making my plant based journey easier.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

aww thank you so much for the lovely feedback. So happy my videos are helping you stick to a plant based diet :)

[@Çyñ012love]

I made the avocado pesto pasta for today and got several compliments on it as it sat in my work fridge! "It looks so fresh!" Thanks for delicious and simple recipes. It really does help to have something different each day.

[@sbh0007]

Man!sending some sisterly love to you. I can hear your voice all day long ...kinda like ASMR. Plus I love that its mon to friday meals. Just starting off healthy meal preps. Every little bit helps

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww you're very sweet! Never thought of my voice as relaxing haha but glad you think so :) Hope you enjoy these easy meals!

[@SunnyDaysRComing]

I avoided watching this when it came out because it looked like the same "boring" lunches that I normally make for myself. I'm so glad I decided to watch this after all! You taught me so much. Thanks Nisha!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

I'm glad you think they are fun and not boring hehe. Hope you'll enjoy them for lunch!

[@veronicamoore4051]

So I made the Tofu salad sandwich for lunch today. I used vegan mayo because I didn't have Hummus, but oh wow I was so satisfied with the sandwich and the flavor with the Dijon mustard and pickle really made the flavor amazing! Thank you so much for all that you do. I have yet to try a recipe from you that I didn't fall in love with. God bless you!

[@katefostermusic]

I've been thinking of making the switch to more vegan/vegetarian meals and this really gave me some great inspiration!! Thank you girl you've got great presence on camera too!

[@settareshariati9688]

I discovered your channel last week and you're already one of my favorite vegan KZbinrs!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww thank you so much Setareh! I am so grateful to hear that :)

[@rgormse]

Thanks

[@marirose756]

Same here. I adore Nisha!

[@pamtewes5276]

My favorite video! So incredibly helpful. I struggle with buying random ingredients and wasting alot. This is so organized for me! Definitely trying this menu. Thank you!!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Hi Pam! I’m so glad to hear you loved it and found it helpful. Happy cooking!

[@radhikadharmadhikari]

I'm moving from India to UK for studies and I'm very very sure that your video is going to help me lower my stress about lunch 🥰 love from India!

[@amyv8416]

I'm not vegan, or even vegetarian, but I have decided that if I am going to consume animal products, I want to be involved in as much of the animals' life as possible. I want to know that the dairy products came from animals that had access to fresh air, un-poisoned grass, and clean water. Same with eggs and meat. Since buying all that is very expensive, and I am not yet in a position to raise animals myself, I was searching for plant-based recipes that would fill my nutritional needs. Thank you for sharing your recipes and ideas here. The cashew cream video was my first one, and now I put cashew cream on everything!

[@townsendstephen]

I was not even half way through before liking and saving this vlog. You really are a genius. Kale pesto? Wow. Got to do this. The trick to saw half an avocado is something i have never seen before so thank you so much for that. I don't eat enough salads so i will prep that lot on Sunday. I am sure it is tasty and no microwave needed. Perfect. Thank you.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

You’re so kin, Stephen! Glad you like the ideas and hope you’ll enjoy eating them too!

[@kaitlynashwell494]

please make more of these videos! I loved being able to make a couple meals off a few ingrediants instead of buying some new ingreediants and only being able to use them on one recipie that I knew how to make. Definetly helped me waste less food!

[@Lovelyreeda]

You are a rock star! Thank you for all your great tips and content!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Thanks for supporting my channel, Jordan!

[@ashleyt7632]

The onion with avocado to store just blew my mind.

[@Freem0m]

Love the Avocado Pesto Pasta except I read “brown rice“ instead of “noodles” so I instant potted some brown basmati and the results were amazing. Tasted like my daughter’s favorite California Rice bowl from Rubios! A win! Thanks!!!

[@gabrielaperalta9088]

Omg, she is so sweet. Love her sense of humor :)

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww thanks Gabriela hehe, glad you enjoy my humor!

[@autumnfrausto137]

I just added all the items to my cart including lemon and garlic and it came out to $23! Love it!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

that’s great to hear! Hope you’ll enjoy the meals, Autumn!

[@nervengewitter]

Nisha. I bought your cookbook some time ago and loved it *without noticing you had a KZbin channel*. Sorry I skipped right to recipes 😂 I'm so glad I discovered you now! I adore Indian and Indian inspired food and the way you present your recipes really shows you're both passionate and knowledgeable about food. I'm seriously in love with your videos. ❤️❤️❤️

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww that's so nice to hear! I am glad you have my book and now you know about my channel too :) I am glad you love Indian food too. There's quite a few Indian recipes in my cookbook - hope you've tried some of them out!

[@jivintunes5361]

I love the way it uses the same ingredients throughout to make it easier to prepare most of the foods in advance. I have to leave the house at 6:10 am every morning but I'll try my best to make myself these lunches!

[@OPMfan65]

Thank you for the downloadable PDF guide for the Recipes. I printed the Grocery Ingredients list and off to Costco and Sprouts Farmers Market I go, to buy my ingredients. Your video and PDF guide makes my work lunch box meal prep a lot easier for the week too.

[@withhelenblog]

This is such a fun video Nisha! I love the tips you added on the side of the videos. All these recipes look absolutely amazing and I love that anyone can make them especially if they are on a budget.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

yes I forgot to mention that these are budget friendly! Thank you dear! Glad you like the tips.

[@eileenstickney80]

New sub here. I plan on binge watching your videos starting with the oldest. Ordered cookbook, too. Your presentation is wonderful. I have not eaten mammals for 43 years. I am looking to not eat chicken either. It is said when the student is ready, the teacher will appear. Thank you for coming into my life!

[@Feminineintuitive]

I've just found you in KZbin and want you to know your approach to cooking is lovely and inventive.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

thank you so much, Ruzica! So happy to have you here!

[@dwightcollman4917]

I could watch her all day…great food and wonderful presenter

[@kristacervantes9952]

I'm not vegan, but I do like to have a more plant focused diet, and I love to watch your videos! So much inspiration! I love that you have such a variety in flavors, and so many different colored foods. It is so important to have a varied diet! Thank you!

[@veggielovinaccountant]

Literally had boring lunches this week at the office. Yep, need to get some of these. Lol 😂

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Okay it’s time to break up with those sad lunches 😂

[@marinasaburova]

Should should totally do more 10-ingredient week meal plans! I struggle with knowing what to buy each week and knowing how to use up my produce before it starts going bad

[@panes840]

Her comic sarcasm just makes me laugh so much 😂. I just love this lady. So glad I've found her on you tube. 🤩 She's brilliant 👏. In a number of ways.

[@kathleenswenning9915]

I am binge watching, obsessed!!!!! Thank you I'm learning so much!!!!

[@novag8543]

I never learned so many things in just one video! Thank you so much for the recipes!!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

That's so lovely to hear, Melissa! Thank you for sharing!

[@patty-cf7jj]

I like to add black salt to the avocado chickpea mash because it tastes like egg salad. That might gross some people but I used to actually love egg salad. (I started to write this before you said that at the end!)

[@RainbowPlantLife]

No I know what you mean! It’s SO good. Didn’t add it here because I wanted to stay away from specialty ingredients but it’s one of my favorite vegan superstar ingredients!

[@Charlesmom]

Nisha I am a huge fan. Everyone should buy your cookbook. I’ve loved every recipe I’ve made. Thank you so much for your delicious creativity.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww that is SO nice to hear. So happy you are loving my cookbook. Thank you for letting me know!

[@OKaly73]

My new year resolution was to cook more and eat healthier. I am not much of a cook, so I actually expected myself to fail. Well, I couldn’t have been more wrong. I made the Monday meal today and it turned out delicious. Thank you so much for your recipes and for the inspiration!

[@bharvar]

No matter what other accounts I visit, I keep gravitating back to yours. I bought the processor in the video because of you and now I'm gonna go make this recipe! Thanks so much!!

[@celeshite6433]

Just wanted you to know I am crushing on your vegan instapot cookbook!! I have tried 4 recipes which have all been spectacular. Thank you!!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

YAY! That's so awesome to hear. So glad you are loving my cookbook so far and the recipes have been a hit :)

[@KineticSenseTherapies]

You are saving my life right now. Thank you! My husband wats the same thing everyday. We've been vegetarian for awhile and making seitan sandwiches. No he needs to be off of gluten. So happy to have something easy and with variety! I totally used some Thai basil and argula, it rocked his socks off. Thank you!!!

[@jaeysteezy]

I LOVEEEEEE how these are fresh recipes meaning you don’t have to reheat them. I HATE microwaves & always eat my food cold at work so this is amazing. Thank you

[@RainbowPlantLife]

I'm so glad you like the recipes. Not a big fan of the microwave either!

[@suslady3906]

I like the avocado preservation technique you use. I always have half a chopped onion in my fridge and don't like how overpoweringly citrus my avocado tastes when I save part of it using lemon or lime juice. I've just been making due and eating oxidized avocado but the onion works pretty well. Thank you.

[@drfyoungesq1190]

You are fantastic and your insta pot series makes being vegan so easy for everybody including part time fringe dwellers. Peace+Love and continued success.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww I am so glad to hear that you enjoy the instant pot videos! I just posted a new instant pot video today if you are interested. Enjoy your weekend!

[@thekitchenprescription1821]

Hi Nisha. I've been quietly consuming & binging on your cooking videos recently. Thought it was time to say hello, as I appreciate your cooking videos. So well done! Thanks for sharing all your cooking knowledge and tips. Your end result always looks so incredibly beautiful and appetizing. I look forward to your videos.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Aww you're very sweet! Thank you for stopping by to say hello. So happy you're enjoying the videos, recipes, and tips :)

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Glad to hear that Ramya! Thank you and enjoy your weekend!

[@Alyrt1the1medya]

Ithaca hummus is the best!! I usually make my own, but the texture of theirs is better than any other brand I've found.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Alyssa Trombitas yes it’s delish! I love making my own but when things get busy, it’s a great option!

[@eudoraevans3340]

Your hair looked so good in this video! And I love the idea of making pesto with a variety of greens❤

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Thank you Eudora. So nice to hear you think so!

I tried the hummus dressing with tofu. Oh my word, so yummy. Thankyou.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

So glad to hear it! Thanks for sharing Janet!

[@normajeanslagel4633]

Made this chickpea salad for sandwich and love it. I love curry seasoning on most everything so added it to some of the salad. Oh yum. This is also a great way to stuff celery and stuff I did. Can t believe how much curry chickpea salad I ate on celery. Thanks for the inspiration you share!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

You’re very welcome! Your additions sound delicious :) glad you enjoyed it!

[@victoriaprevitt7058]

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Hi Kristine, so happy you loved the tofu salad! I love how simple yet flavorful it is. And yay, thank you for your support on my cookbook! So happy your family loves the queso!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Sikun yummm!! Sounds so good!

[@marirose756]

Yes these recipes are phenomenal & having the PDFs to go along w/them makes a huge difference. It makes it that much easier to complete my grocery delivery list. You rock, Nisha & deserve far more subscribers. C’mon everyone! Spread the word abt this lovely & hilarious vegan; we need to send our friends here to subscribe!!

[@RainbowPlantLife]
