Yayyyyy! I've missed you.

[@emilydelgado4312]

PLEASE keep these type meals coming!i learned so much from you! ❤

[@SummerSunset2207]

Leave the garlic whole and in its skin when you roast…it comes out sweet and flavorful for the pasta 🙂

[@madonnella]

Wow.. I live in Germany where ALDI comes from and I am surprised by how much more vegan products you have! 😍

[@pluto7280]

Germany = Fleischopfer

[@conniesmith2160]

It's a good idea to buy a case of canned goods one each time you go to the store. One week a case of chickpeas. One week a case of black beans. Etc.👍

[@kaylaglumac3895]

Excellent!! Thank you for doing this! My husband and I are new to plant based eating so seeing a grocery haul and actual recipes and how to make them is sooo helpful!

[@siasia3376]

Welcome back! You've been missed! Loved this Aldi haul and recipes. I hope you continue making videos.

[@kellyfusca8846]

Happy New Year Jess Thank you for your beautiful positive attitude it's just what I needed for the New Year ❤

[@debohare674]

I am loving watching your videos. They make this way of eating more accessible for me. Thanks so much.

[@nebraskafrankcourtny]

Fun video!!! I loved it, and it helps so much to see how another person prioritizes what groceries to buy, and then how to be creative and make meals. Very helpful!!! (Plus you are gorgeous!!!)

[@carybaker6135]

Welcome back!! Yes more videos please! I love your recipes.

[@lindacortez9504]

Wow! Everything looks so amazing! Thank you! You are such an inspiration!

[@katecarr8986]

I love watching these kinds of videos! Please keep them coming 💕

[@dianeschuller]

I love how you use your leftovers and extra vegetables for roasting. I'm quite good using up leftovers but sometimes leave some veggies too long before using up. I'm going to try to adopt your method of using them up once a week -- such a good idea.

[@user-vn6xo2tc9r]

Great video! Hope to see more of these!

[@somegirlontheinterwebs]

That Chowder looks amazing!!! Love your videos , you have such a sunshine personality.

[@Blu.dreaam]

Love this video! Gave me so many ideas for new vegan recipes to make 😊

[@rachaelgates6887]

chanty, you are glowing!! enjoyed this vid, thank you!

[@michellel8537]

Just wrote down the recipe for the soups...I'm so excited to try them. I love that you use an instant pot. I like using mine the clean up is so easy.

[@bethsummerfield9855]

That potato soup looks SO bomb! Thanks for sharing all this goodness! xo

[@laurieharnicker5451]

Wow! All of these meals look absolutely delicious. I think I'm going to make all of them. You provide some very interesting and unique vegan recipes compared to some of the other vegan channels. I get so much inspiration from watching your videos.

Aldi used to be so affordable 😭 im watching this in 2023 and i just stopped at Aldi on Tuesday. So so expensive but still the cheapest of all stores where i live. I love that brown rice pasta so much

[@marjoriemitchell4881]

a nice way to thicken your soups is just blitzing a can of chick peas (with a little water) in the bullet until creamy

[@LauraCastillejos]

The quinoa tofu bowl looked delicious! I'm going to make that sauce! I love your videos Chanty 💕 Thanks for taking the time to make them ☺️

[@Chantymarie]

Thank you so much for watching! ❤️ let me know how it comes out!

[@DallasJack1]

Always look forward to your vids. Always helpful

[@julieannbailey9505]

We don't have an Aldi in Maine, but it was still really interesting seeing what you paid last year for things. What a difference a year makes! I'm going to try more of your recipes as I work to convince my husband to go plant based as well.

[@bonniemaresh3562]

Aww 😁🤗❤️ love these kind of videos. Such great ideas for food prep. Thank you 🙃😁🥗 love watching your content ❤️

So glad you are back

Great recipes - thanks

Wow! That potato 🥔 deal! So great for a budget!

[@-withpreet]

I love shopping at Aldi as well!! It’s so budget friendly. Can you share the veggie broth recipe that you make at home?

[@yolandaquimby3489]

Could you do a printable? Please!🧡

[@CastledarkDweller27]

oh hun i LOVE your videos! i especially love how you shop! Wow! you dont buy junk and you got such bargains! Youre a great cook too but you forgot one thing in the instant pot soup the first night...SOME OF THOSE AMAZING 99C POTATOES!! (i'd be tossing them in everythingggg!) lol

[@michelleaudette7888]

Lmao. I was looking for recipes to use up left over meal prep ingredients and this video legit just gave me recipes to use all of it. Thank you.

[@sunflower8599]

Please, We need more of this meal prep videos! ❤️😋my avocados from Aldi are always hard like a rock!😂where did you purchase the wood spoon?

[@autumnlynch2655]

The oil especially saffower oil is not needed. parchment paper is wonderful and a touch of water. I am still a big fan.. I just change around a few things. Nice, Chanty :)

[@valeriepowell436]

I love shopping at Aldi’s This should be a good video 😄

[@southernladywithmanyhats7428]

YUM We don't have an Aldi but I think they are starting to build one now in Hattiesburg,Ms. Close to us! I can't get over that .99 for a 10 lb. bag of potatoes! Heck I can't even get them for that price at our little salvage gro. What a buy! I think I'd had to buy 2-3 bags and froze some dinners. lol

[@Joseph1NJ]

So creative! Why doesn't this channel have more subs?

[@seasonsofrefreshing7386]

Looks so good!! Thanks for sharing, friend. Let's stay connected.

Hi I love your videos and I'm new to eating vegan I'm also very new to my instant pot. I don't understand what a quick release is. when you're doing the recipe and you say I'm going to do a quick release could you explain how to do that please

[@verushkapillai5307]

Love, your oil free recipe's

[@Aneedanothaone]

Good vid thanks, compared USD prices with NZD prices and the spend for me is $157 NZD, equivalent to $110 USD. Wish we had Aldi here, in the past year cost of food has sky rocketed in NZ

[@KS-cl8br]

Really good video. I see many budget videos that are unhealthy. I am glad I came across yours

I personally dont like garbanzo beans. never have. i keep trying but cant stomach them. So I replace them with other beans instead. I love your recipies!

[@miyisimiyisi2477]

Yumm

[@MarleeCM]

You are a meal prep inspo!!

[@helencherry9133]

Good video! Once again, great ideas to try. Is there a website or anywhere you have them written down or do we just need to re-watch & pause to write it down ourselves? Oh, and I'm one of those who doesn't like ANY avocado on the toast, I hate avocado!

[@Chantymarie]

Yess I have a blog! It’s chantyveggie.com but not all these recipes are up yet

[@joycatapano-t2402]

I make my own broth as well in the instant pot. You cook yours for an hour!? I usually only do mine for 16 minutes or so. I'll have to try an hour. May be that its more flavorful?

I see potato and cheese enchiladas in your future. 🙃

[@Randilynn66]

My Aldie here in Santa Clarita has a really bad produce section.

[@alwayslearning9272]

These meals are great, easy to put together but really tasty and wholesome too! The only downside is that you don't provide the recipes as it took me quite a while to write everything down, but am looking forward to trying some of these out, thanks! :)

[@Chantymarie]

I am working on putting them all on my blog so you can have a written version! It’s chantyveggie.com

[@alwayslearning9272]

Thank you, that would be really helpful! I'm sure others will appreciate that too. :) I really enjoy your style of cooking and find it so aesthetically pleasing to see all your meal prep containers stacked up in your fridge afterwards. You make meal prepping very inviting! :)

[@crimsonspice72]

Yummy😋

[@enomismarie]

How did you get your boyfriend to eat more plant based/whole foods? My boyfriend eats meat and even though I know I shouldn’t control what he eats I really think he should eat more plants and whole foods for his health. I’ve been plant based/vegetarian for a couple years.

[@Chantymarie]

He was interested in what I was eating and did his own research and then just started wanting to eat healthier! And ever since we moved in together he just eats whatever I cook lol.

[@yolandaquimby3489]

Maybe time to update the Aldi's haul prices😊

[@EFMM79]

A tip I just learned yesterday: don’t press your tofu. Cut it how you need it, then BOIL it in salt water for 3 minutes then drain. Season and cook how you like, or don’t cook again. Mind blown!!! Edit: I learned this from SauceStache

[@SummerSunset2207]

Step up your dressing game with a few fresh herbs….dill, cilantro,parsley 🙂

[@valeriepowell436]

Also the 99 cent potatoes 🥔👍🏼

[@Chantymarie]

Such an incredible price haha

[@kytastrophe-]

Me, living in Alaska and looking at the prices of your food...a bag of cuties or carton of Oatmeal is $7 up here lol 😑😬

Why is zucchini so expensive?? Ppl plant it in their garden & it produces a mountain of quantity (can’t give it away) but....I need to take out a loan to buy it at the grocery! Weird.

I grew a ton of it in my garden last year it grew like crazy!

95 cents for asparagus in way cheap! Sweet deal

[@neilmon11203]

You should buy the dry beans at Aldi. I mean you have an instant pot...

[@Chantymarie]

Yess that would save money too!

[@Cece697]

They taste soooo much better, too. But some days it’s just way much easier to open a can

[@RhondaOnline72]

Prices are a lot higher 12/2022. I miss super cheat Aldi prices.
