vegan what I eat in a week - ( no oil & sugar ) + getting back on track (grocery haul)

Hey there!🌞 Thanks for joining me on my vegan what I eat in a week video! This week I tried something new with my diet and excluded oil and sugar! I also wanted to get myself back on track and set a schedule for myself. Having a routine is a great way to regulate so many things within the body like hunger levels, sleep schedule, stress levels and even hormones!
Thanks for being here, I appreciate it more then you know💛

↡ Recipes from this week! ↡
Day 1 - Dinner sauce:
3 tbsp tamari
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1/2 tsp chilli flakes
1/2 “ fresh ginger ( grated )
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
- this would be amazing with a 1/4 cup orange juice for some sweetness
- feel free to add ( about ) 1 tsp corn starch to create a thinker stickier sauce
Day 2 - Lunch
1/2 large onion ( sliced )
2-3 cups sliced mushrooms
1.5” fresh ginger ( minced or grated )
4 cloves garlic ( minced)
1 large carrot ( sliced )
1/2 package of enoki mushrooms
1/2 medium sized sweet potato (diced)
1 heaping tbsp miso paste
3 -4 tbsp tamari
2 tbsp rice vinegar ( sub for lime juice if needed )
1/2 tsp salt ( I use pink salt )
1-2 tsp chilli flakes
2 tsp ground coriander
2 servings of rice noodles ( 5mm )
green onion ( optional for the top )
seaweed ( optional for the top )
In a non stick pot or large pan sauté onion on low heat for several minutes. This will allow all the sweetness and flavour to come out. After they have softened add your sliced mushroom, ginger and garlic. Sauté until mushrooms have browned.
Add the carrot and sweet potato and give it a mix. Sauté for a few minutes then add 7-8 cups of water. Add miso paste, tamari, rice vinegar, chilli flakes and ground coriander. Give it a really good mix then pop a lid on top for about 10 minutes. Stir it again and add your enoki mushrooms, cook until carrots and sweet potato are soft but not mushy!
In the mean time cook your rice noodles in a separate pot. Add your cooked rice noodles to your bowl, top with your soup, green onions and seaweed!

2 tbsp tamari
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp parsley

1/2 tsp black pepper
2 cloves garlic ( minced )
1 tbsp water
- Cook sweet potato in the oven or a pressure cooker.
- Add enoki mushrooms to a baking dish with all the spices, tamari and water. Cook in the oven for 15-20 minutes
- Stuff your sweet potato with enoki mushrooms & top with whatever you desire. ( I topped mine with spinach, red onion, avocado and plain coconut yogurt
Note: this dish would be great with a couple tbsp of BBQ sauce. Mine had sugar so I decided not to use it

U shouldn't feel extremely hungry to have ur next meal... Isn't that the right way?

[@lk6069]

This looks like max 1500 cals a day, and if you exercise as well it looks a bit too unsustainable...

[@jessblack-curtain9435]

A good way to boost up the calories and feel fuller for long is to include more whole grains into each meal and legumes/beans and slightly lower the amount of veges on your plate. Eating more fats is good too which I did hear you mention anyway but there are healthy cooking oils out there too like olive, avocado, macadamia, seasame etc so ditching the oil fully isn't totally necessary :)

[@raikaburfien1119]

Good to experiment but it was triggering to watch this.

[@jaminwaite3867]

Dried fruit is another way to healthfully bump up the calories and nutrients. Dates, raisins, dried mangoes, etc.

Love this so much. I been vegan 17 years. Love my vegan lifestyle xooxx ❤️🤗😍😊

[@phillippinter7518]

Coconut milk curries are the best! Have you ever been to a Thai restaurant? Some South Indian, carribean and other regions have them as well. Don’t give up on coconut curries.

Here's a funny story of mine. 3-4 days ago. I didn't know why was I not feeling hungry at all with time intervals of 5-6 hrs and I never snacked. It's actually bcoz I ate too much proteins like chickpeas for breakfast, rice with some lentils (we eat rice with lentils most of the times) with some salad and for dinner I had two whole wheat chapati with some leftover tofu curry. All was under 1400 calories. But I felt so full and heavy that eventually I had to move a lot. And the next day I realised it was due to heavy protein intake. Lol

[@chelseet11]

Wow the willpower u possess to go to bed hungry …. If I’m hungry before bed , I am absolutely eating something, come hell or high water lmao

[@camillaribeiro811]

I am just in love with your channel! Your energy is so beautiful. Thank you for these videos! I was wondering where you shop for groceries?

[@SabrineKsouri]

I'm on a no sugar and no oil diet and girl, when you were talking about feeling full and then an hour later you're starving and you're not hungry for dinner so you have a small amount of food but then you're starving, that's me!!! It's good to know that I'm not the only one😂

[@destinypayne7030]
