VLOG // tj maxx shop with me, 5-ingredient egg muffins, fave target boots

[@feagleyme]

We’re getting close to Baby Girl Braun 2.0, and I can’t wait! Love the vlogs!

[@lorileblanc616]

Next time throw your peppers and onions in with the sausage when you brown it. They will shrink when they cook down and gives you more room for the egg. I also poor my eggs after the meat and peppers then top with the cheese. ( less mess) I sometimes use mushroom and spinach in the place of the sausage and peppers

[@judithbeckham4165]

Exactly! I have made these for years and I always sauté the veg and meat, then mix eggs and cheese in bowl, cool veg and then add to egg mixture. I have used deli ham chopped in small pieces and it is very good!

[@Iris-gy2mi]

Not to mention the veggies taste so much better when cooked! I don't have patience for the individual muffins. So I throw entire mixture with lots of spices and a splash of milk into pre-made crusts for 45 mins at 375 for quiche.

[@Karen-DeMars]

“Is everything ok, carrots?” 😂 This is the kind of thing Jessica says that cracks me up so much! 😊❤️

[@annamcdomo6909]

Dying over here! 1st - I always play the "if it's under $__, I'll buy it" game and feel validated. 😂 2nd - I find Nate Bargatze hilarious! His delivery is what does it for me.

[@phil0s0phicj0ys]

Me too! Sometimes I'll budge a leeeetle, like if it is $10.99 instead of less than $10, I allow it haha

[@JessicaPaulsen]

Love when you say "we're" doing errands today, like yes, 🙌 I am shopping with you and also commenting on all the cute things 🤗

[@maria.jimena1516]

She definitely did not need to clarify she meant us and her, I had already assumed lol

[@thewadsquad]

The baby clothes!!! Crying. Oh my gosh I just love TJ Maxx so much! You found some cute pieces! and that snow!!! swoon.

[@katelynb9916]

I really appreciate you sharing Gigi's progress in school. My oldest will be going to preschool this fall and it'll be the first time she's been away from me and I am NERVOUS. And I was even a preschool teacher before staying home with the kids, but the nerves apparently don't go away! I'm so glad she is doing well in it!

[@lisag4588]

We love making egg muffins. A tip- dice your veggies into smaller pieces and rather than layer them, mix everything (the veggies and meat and cheeses) together in a bowl then place a scoop in the muffin tin followed by the egg mixture.

[@lauraatkinson9479]

I put the egg mixture in before the cheese. It's the cheese on top that makes it more difficult to egg in the muffin tin.

[@LivyRivy]

I love them too! I'm on keto and they make such a great breakfast on the go/snack. I use bacon, cheddar and either spinach or broccoli in mine.

[@LaurenW888]

I like mix ahead tip!

[@lisag4588]

@@LivyRivy, our favorite combo is sharp cheddar, ham, mushroom, and spinach.

[@KristaJohnson]

I heard in a Costco secrets video that Costco is generally least busy on weekdays from 3:30-5:30 PM! I tried it and it's been a hit so far!

[@AshleyPhillips]

To whoever is reading this…you are so loved. The world is a better place with you in it. Wherever you’re at in life, you’re doing amazing and I’m proud of you. I’m glad you’re here 🤍

[@butterflygirlbeauty]

The world needs more people like you and your inspiring comments. Thank you. I needed that.

[@nataliecoope1213]

I think it just hit me that you’re really having a baby! It’s so exciting

[@marbravo7001]

My TJMaxx was stocked up with missha bb cream cushion compacts!! For 6.99. Tons of Becca, Marc Jacobs bronzers, and ABH subculture and Riviera palettes

[@artATTACKS]

You’re smart to put Miss G in 2 days a week, the more often she goes the less jarring it will be. Re-starting daycare after almost a year around this time last year was HARD for my kiddo but they get used to it quickly. I would ask her or the teachers the names of the kids in her class so you can encourage her by asking if she wants to see/play with specific friends. It will get easier!

[@andrezasaferreira3341]

We love Nate! He’s a “clean” if you will comedian and just a funny guy. You know those people who are just funny with how they say things and think things. Anyways love him.

[@perfectlyimperfect2368]

As someone who did NOT handle preschool well,it does get better. My first day,which was also my birthday yippy me lol,I cried/was mad pretty much the whole day. Lol I laugh thinking back on it. Anyway,but yeah within a few times of going I was ok. I was/still am a person that doesn't handle change well. But once I get comfortable, get a routine and know what to expect,I'm better. So hopefully Gigi will be similar and once it becomes routine and she feels comfortable with her surroundings,drop offs can happen with confidence and excitement.

[@carolrourke1481]

Jess, I LOVE these videos. It feels like we're just hanging out together, and I always - always pick up something new to try. Will be making those egg muffins for sure. Thanks for doing these!

[@carriekgrant]

After so long watching your videos Jess, I finally caved and got Thrive Market. At first I was annoyed with myself for being influenced lol, but I totally do love it. I’m gluten free, so now I can get my favorite granola bars (Macrobars and Bobo’s) all the time, which used to just be an occasional splurge b/c they’re hard to find and expensive. I do really appreciate how you approach sponsorships on your channel-I’ve never been disappointed in one of your sponsored recs!

[@doriking9756]

The culinary world of Jessica! But baby, she’s real and it’s realistic!!

[@roxkat2815]

We love you feeling “vloggie” 🙌 means more vlogs

[@catherinethompson5477]

I picked up the Missha BB Cream at TJ because my Costco never has it and you always talk about how much you enjoy it! ❤

[@Allieh]

I'm crying listening to you talk about preschool! My son will be starting in the fall and I remember just how hard it was with my firstborn! It really does hurt the heart!

[@melslatt]

Finally made my way to your channel after hearing Taylor Wynn talk you up for a WHILE and I'm so glad to be here!!! Your vibe is very similar to hers for all the reasons I've been watching her for years! Plus I love a good vlog and salt and vinegar chips are life 💙💙💙

[@melslatt]

Oh my gosh also just saw an article saying you live in Indiana! I moved to Indiana six-ish years ago! Small world. (I also almost never comment this much on videos...😂)

[@meganlenz2980]

Nourish Move Love is great for pregnancy workouts and just regular workouts! Always gives great options for those that are pregnant and needing modifications to moves.

[@jenfarina1892]

Nothing better than a Friday vlog after a pretty rough week!

[@sarahwade8115]

Jessie, my friend. I FELT you when you talked about dropping Gigi off to daycare. My little one JUST started daycare and I’m heading back after mat leave. The first week broke my heart, and I cried SO much. It’s week two and now she’s doing amazing. They’re resilient little things. Gigi will adjust even more, too ❤️

[@kaylatipton3003]

That baby bump!!!!! So precious 🥰

[@jessicaharris4701]

I remember the weeks before my youngest and I was soooo emotional about everything related to my oldest because I had so much guilt about rocking her world. This blog brought back all the fun emotions of bringing in our second baby 😍😍

[@micheleannfluharty879]

Yeah, so glad you are in a vloggy mood because I am in a vloggy-watching mood!

[@idahoroots]

I enjoyed watching you go shopping for baby clothes and seeing what you got for new bundle of joy! My husband and just recently suffered a loss and it been hard but watching you go shopping reminds me of all the fun things about being pregnant. I’m so happy for you and your husband

[@laurabanda9254]

Nourish Move Love is SO good! Not even just for prenatal but any time. I’ve been doing her workout plans since end of October and I’ve lost over 10 lbs and feel so strong 💪🏼

[@Camryn_njohnson98]

I had a really rough day and as I’m laying here in bed tonight I really needed a pick me up. I’m so glad I chose to check if you uploaded because these always do the trick for me 🥺

[@theresechantalespejo5910]

I've been watching your videos for a long time, and I thought it was impossible at this point, but you are getting prettier by the day!!! My goodness! That pregnant glow is just 💯💯💯 Love your videos so so much. Giving me lots of good vibes (much needed nowadays) ❤️ Thank you Jessica!

[@lily_white]

Jess, you can use the pink $7 blanket for out of the house, and the special embroidered one for inside the house.

[@amycooper639]

Just a tip for your mix and chop tool, I use mine to chop up strawberries for strawberry sauce for shortcake or cheesecake. It works great for that too!

[@Gardnertino]

I’m so glad chunky heels are coming back. I remember the chunky wet seal Sandles via 1997/98 and I LOVED them. Love this style of chunk!!!!

[@theresapittman205]

Yes you’ve had the cheddar cauliflower sticks. I got them on your rec in a different video and gave them a try. And now I stick with your makeup recs. I couldn’t even get our warehouse guys to eat them. But I know you love ‘em, so different strokes.

[@hello_danielle]

Something really interesting I learned in my psychology class about attachment styles is that a child with a healthy attachment to their parents can look like a child being upset that their parents are leaving them at childcare then the child transitions to having fun and being engaged in their class. I think sometimes parents feel bad that their child is upset and may linger trying to help their child but it’s actually okay that they are a bit emotional. They are just processing their big emotions. Just sharing cause I thought it was interesting

[@donnafrei8062]

I have 3 kids who are all in their 30's and have 4 grandkids. It still gives me pause how differently each brand runs in sizing. Some tips I learned early, especially with infants, to not go by the "size #" & we didn't take the tags off until we made sure the outfit fit. (Kids blew past some sizes, especially pants so they got rolled up to get at least 2 sizes out of them. Loved overalls.) And keep receipts so there's never a problem returning or exchanging especially like 3 months out. Congratulations ❤

[@emilywargo7854]

Love those outfits!!! TjMaxx is the BEST for discounted name brand!!! I am having our little girl by the end of the month!! So excited!! 🥰

[@mandyhanson3372]

I’m having a girl at the end of the month, too! Happy birth month mama!

[@jamiemartin9501]

A long vlog from you is a form of self care for me - thank you! ( I loved Nourish Move Love while I was pregnant last year - I also loved Bodyfit by Amy and GlowBodyPT!)

[@itsjessicabraun]

Just did a GlowBodyPT workout today and loved it!!

[@hannahwillams9602]

Have had a crap day and so needed a long Jessie Vlog!! Thank you so much for this!!!

[@pompompolished3512]

I had already totally bought the black and gray in those chelsea boots when they were on sale recently for like $30 a pair. What a steal and yes very confy

[@DianaDodson]

Thrive market was such a life saver. 2 years old, my husband was so sick, and he found out he has all these food sensitivities. Gluten, soy, dairy. It felt like he couldn't eat anything. Thrive market introduced us to so many things he could eat.

[@shannonharris3982]

Maybe add the egg before the cheese so it has an easier time settling in - they looks so good 😊 thanks for sharing as per usual Jess!

[@teresaswanson4854]

My husband just ordered that kitchen tool & your right, it is a game changer. Took me a minute to use, now I use it all the time!

[@danidavis3716]

I LOVE YOUR VLOGS!! I really missed Tyler’s garden and cutting block last year. I’ve been watching you since early 2018. It’s been wonderful to see how KZbin was something you did for fun since you taught full time. Just watching your careers, family, & each other grow over the last several years has been pretty fun!! Looking forward to see what the future holds for all of you!!

[@Gardnertino]

Have you guys tried right rice from thrive? From someone who is bad at cooking rice, but also is trying to be healthier, that chickpea rice is SO good and always cooks perfectly(super easy to cook too). Highly recommend!

[@mistyeivins2139]

We make the egg bites a lot. Sometimes we use spinach and bacon bits with different cheese. Pretty much anything you like in your omelets put in the bites. Enjoy

[@nikkir4400]

I love the pregnancy content. I’m currently 14 weeks with my 1st baby. P.S. just wondering if Tyler started stockpiling beans again ..😂😂

[@ashlynlawrence8752]

I got that same blanket (the barefoot dreams dupe) for my niece but it was $13 when i bought it at Marshall’s

[@cherylashelton]

I do something really similar making egg muffins, but I mix all the ingredients together in the mixing bowl then spoon it into the muffin pan already mixed, That way you get the cheese/ veggies distributed through the whole thing. They are such a great quick morning meal.

[@elizabethbryant5007]

Seeing your baby bump while you were cooking was so cute 🥰

[@joniwhitt3366]

Nate is great! Saw him live in NC. Hope y’all loved it!

[@smurray0135]

I love NML. Lindsey is fantastic and has so many amazing workouts.

[@sammerg22]

You can mix all of the ingredients into the beaten egg and pour into the cups so they are evenly distributed! :) Also, once I started making egg bites a lot, I bought a silicone muffin pan and that made cleanup so much easier!!

[@kristinraeee]

I would maybe chop the bell peppers and onion a little smaller! And maybe try adding the egg in halfway through the layers. Looks delicious!

[@coreyvogt9120]

Nourish Move Love is one of my favorite KZbin workouts!

[@melaniemunroe1010]

I am loving Thrive market! I’ve been a customer for a month now and the shipments come so fast!

[@lucyfresh4190]

Its so funny because I have 2 boys that are quite literally the same age difference as what you're 2 girl will be - as much as you don't think they get the whole mommy is having the baby time she will be so excited when her baby sister is here!My son absolutely adored his baby brother from he moment he met him and they are best buds! Good luck with everything!

[@michellewelling9074]

Oh yes...Misha foundation is amazing!! I still use everyday. It's so great, thanks for showing this on ur channel. I am obsessed!! Same #023. 😁

[@LivyRivy]

Omg I'm with you on the pepper seeds!! The sight makes me itchy. I think it's part of my trypophobia. Also when I make egg bites, instead of layering the ingredients I mix it all in one bowl and then scoop it in it. That way you get an equal distribution of everything.

[@devikaseepersaud2203]

I’m so here for the vloggy mood 🥰

[@rachaelgrier6126]

i'm going to try that recipe but mix ALL of it together with the eggs then use ice cream scoop! looks yummo!

[@shelbybell6207]

My day just got better! Love your vlogs! :) Happy Friday Jess!

[@jansimpson8175]

I make egg muffins with spinach, mushrooms and cheese. One of my favorite breakfast foods.

[@imaginearingwithme6544]

Jess, I am the same way about the seeds in peppers. Its the circle thing. Or the little shapes thing? If you know, you know.

[@brittnichole2778]

OMG I love Nate Bargatze also and went to see him when he was in KC a few weeks ago! So funny!

[@Romaniuk530]

We have been making the egg muffins for the last two years. We like ours with maple sausage, green onions, red bell peppers, and cheddar blend on the top. Such a yummy breakfast. 😊

[@melaniebeth104]

Omg you will LOVE Nourish Move Love!!! YOU were the reason I ever started working out and I started with Emkfit because you recommend her, and then I found NML and she is amazing...you will be hooked!!

[@michelledr111]

Love Thrive Market! Used Jessica’s link & got my free gifts (cookbook, ghee & avo-mayo) plus all the 4 flavors of Hippeas, 2 flavors of Good Crisps, my favorite Truff hot sauce (LOVE) & my Califia oatmilk barista - all on sale, plus 40% off, plus my Rakuten cashback! If you guys are as disappointed as I am that Amazon/Whole Foods has implemented their $10 flat shipping fee, this is the alternative to getting those amazing organic brands. My order arrived in one day (SF, CA)! Cannot recommend Thrive Market enough to all my friends & family ❤️ On another note, hang in there, Jessica & Tyler. Sending Gigi to school will get better & you will start looking forward to it LOL. Coming from a mom of three boys 👍🏽

[@lanaea8735]

Aww Pinocchio sitting there like mom what are you doing 🤣. Look at me I’m cute give me treatos 🤣🤣

[@shannonleighpencilme-in2265]

The Colliflower chips is in the store. Here in Michigan. I tried the sea salt ones. Will try the cheese ones next

[@rachelmejia1982]

Muffins look great! My thought is a way smaller dice on the veggies!

[@BethHartSmith]

LOVING these longer videos recently!

[@luckyahmed200]

I love nourish move love!! She’s actually pregnant right now as well :). The workouts are hard but effective (the regular ones)

[@amyisis7]

I do that when I make recipes too! The first time follow the recipe, after that recipes are just suggestions right?

[@christiekoska2659]

The black boots from Target are so cute and comfortable 😁 I love mine.

[@acdallas6356]

I've been binge watching the Great British Baking Show. When you showed your egg muffins and said they looked good, I had to laugh out loud. You're the best, Jessie!!!

[@nedabor]

Hey Jessica! A hint about the egg muffins- I put the vegetables in the pan first and then add them to the eggs, sometimes I even blend everything together in the blender and then pour it into the silicone muffin forms. As a last step I add the cheese on top 🤗😊 Please do more vlogs 🙏

[@mollerz2011]

Most random question. Do you guys have a Neoroc sink? Do you like it?

[@flawlessnikki8290]

I'm a member now thanks to you.. I already placed 2 orders.. I love everything I purchased so far!!

[@Jenadamson1]

My trick for dropping my little ones off at daycare without too much fuss was granola bars. We always sat down to eat one when we got to school, so I could get away when they were distracted by food.

[@NYMahogany]

My niece is the same way w/the pepper seeds. She said it makes her skin crawl. LOL..I used to make egg muffins all the time for the family. Eggs, cheese, sausage patties (cut up), peppers, spinach, onions & a little seasoning. I stored them in the frig because they went so fast, no need to freeze...LOL!I also would always pour in the egg mixture 1st..

[@toniwanserski9257]

Do you think if you had added more seasonings to the turkey that the "muffins" would have been better? I think I would substitute black olives for the peppers.

[@christink.5264]

I love nourish move love and she has postnatal workouts. Highly recommend

[@ck29]

Jess, you have to try the Fix & Fogg coffee and maple peanut butter from thrive. OBSESSED 🤩 Also, YES, get the Good Crisp BBQ chips. They are definitely addictive.

[@tamekocollins6412]

What eyeliner are you wearing?? Looking fab!!

[@jkschnik6952]

I make egg bites but I have put spinach and ham it them. so good! I'll have to try sausage in the egg bites

[@sarahferguson0]

My family loves those egg muffin things. It's a great way to use up leftovers. I've even used leftover fajitas. I can totally relate to getting past the checkout line without buying those little temptations. They seem to know just the right things to put there that will tempt me. 🙂

[@julieo4580]

They have meat breaker uppers at Dollar Tree too! And they have a vegetable peeler from Betty Crocker that’s the best ever!

[@Natalie_11188]

I have that charger cord case in leopard! Got it a few weeks ago.

[@jessicacamponelli9376]

My husband and I love Nate B. Especially his take on ordering Starbucks 🤣🤣🤣

[@noraw.1110]

I'm interested in a video trying the makeup or skincare from thrive and reviewing

[@christink.5264]

Your outfit at the end was so cute!

[@rachelsmith3895]

The issue with the small seeds in the pepper is so interesting! I've never heard of that. I wonder if it's related to tryptophobia?

[@Nilesedge]

Yeah I was wondering if it was tryptophobia related too! I’ve never heard of anyone being freaked out by the seeds before

[@yvonnerahmes9618]

You look so pretty Jessica, you always have a happy video. I HAVE to ask, can you tell me what lipstick you wore in this video? I will be looking into Thrive Market this weekend :) I'm so excited for you guys, lots of anticipation. Thank you, I watch all your videos!

[@ingriddynowski9630]

Costco truly is the store that never sleeps LOL, but my mom and I have been going like an hour before they close and it seems to be much less busy at night

[@Jen-rh]

My GOSH your ceilings are high in your bedroom! I had to rewind to watch a good portion of your haul over again but I kept focusing on your ceilings and how I’d never noticed before instead of what you got! 😂🤣 Anyways lol you’re killing it, as always. So happy for you and your family ❤️ I’m hoping to have a baby this year, only just starting out now and you’re making me so excited for this next step! Live from Montreal Canada ❤️

[@shaynaleann1054]

I love TJ Maxx, my favorite store I can spend hours in there! Baby girl clothes are so adorable 💕

[@amandaarthur7825]

I want to try the muffins, i'm thinking of using a turkey baster for the eggs
