What I Eat in a Day + How to Make Satisfying Vegan Meals!

[@Ella.L.]

Pro tip, if you want your oven/air fryer sweet potatoes or pumpkin/sqash to be crispier: Just add about a tbsp of starch to the seasoning before baking them. Trust me on this and thank me later, LOL.

[@NikkiVegan]

Doing this asap! Thanks for the tip! 🙌 ❤

[@Ella.L.]

@@NikkiVegan You're welcome 🤗

[@nadine2204]

Yay boyfriend! I’m so happy for you. You deserve nothing but happiness and joy in your life! 👍🥰👍

[@mirandab5086]

Love your recipes and content. Congratulations on your new beau

[@stephaniebieschke2873]

Hi Nikki! I’m not 100% vegan but I love cooking lots of plant based meals. I’ve tried so many of your recipes and they NEVER fail. I cook a lot of them for my boyfriend as well who is trying to cut out more animal products. You’re wonderful and thank you for your inspiration! ❤️

[@goodaskale]

A million years ago, I was a cake decorator; almond extract was the "secret ingredient" in my best frosting recipes. I love to use it in place of vanilla. Thanks for the bonus video! Happy Wednesday....to you and your boyfriend! 🤩

[@NikkiVegan]

haha aw thank you so much 😊😊 and wow! You were a cake decorator?! That's so cool! I'd love to hear your tips. What was your favorite cake to make?

[@goodaskale]

@@NikkiVegan thanks so much for asking! I made mostly novelty cakes, and my favorite was a 6 foot tall princess castle cake! It took forever, but it was a lot of fun!

[@lisettebrown8317]

Lately I’ve been using almond extract in my diary free yogurt. It adds a bit of something extra that’s so good!!

[@meganrosbury3504]

Nikki is the best! Share her videos so she can get more subscribers. She deserves it.

[@jenniferjuneau7329]

I stopped buying cereal for the very reason it never filled me up, I never even thought of adding all these toppings! Thanks so much, what a great video to wake up to 😋

[@art_strings]

The way you "made" cereal looks awesome! Must try!

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you ☺️☺️ I’m glad you liked it!

[@meghanndean7169]

Great video as always! I love to add hemp seeds to my kid's cereal in the morning to make it just a bit more nutritious. I really appreciate your attitude about adding nutrients and not thinking about the calories... So important for people to hear❤️❤️

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you for saying that Meghann, that means a lot to me 😊😊 and that's such a good idea! I've been doing hemp seeds on my oatmeal with some peanut butter and I love the subtle crunch

[@conniemc86]

Yes to adding extracts to oatmeal - I tell people it's my secret ingredient, and why I don't need any added sugars. If I'm doing raspberry oatmeal, I'll do almond extract, if I'm adding blueberries, I like vanilla, etc. Gives them a taste that's reminiscent of baked goods/muffins. Yes also to TJ's Buffalo sauce! I was hooked on that over the summer, and was dipping their frozen pickle falafel in it. And thanks to your mention of poultry seasoning, I'm totally going to make some tofu with that tomorrow. I forgot I had it, but you're right - it's perfect for this time of year.

[@sharrim658]

Thanks for the cereal tip, I stopped eating cereal completely as I needed to be weight focused; but dang that looks good! I just might. Congrats, I’m glad you found someone to make you happy!!!😅

[@mollymeyer3129]

Thank you Nikki! What a balanced and delicious day. I'm craving a jelly doughnut now. Important lesson: Shop at Thrive First. Grocery Second. Sometimes it just seems quicker/convenient at the store, but if I have a Thrive box coming, that will stop me :) Hope you had a great week! Molly

[@lyndajane9870]

great video, thanks for the time stamps i appreciate being easily able to go back to a section

[@inthevanwithalexa]

Ty nicki sweetie I am new to Vegan food I sure hope people share easy vegan stuff for me to make and eat

[@NikkiVegan]

That's so cool! I hope you enjoy my recipes and videos 😊 Please let me know if you have any questions or need any recipe ideas. I'm more than happy to help ❤️

[@jillt.3195]

Such a lovely video with a great message and of course amazing food combinations! Living a healthy and fun life is what it's all about. Adding in healthy things like pumpkin seeds to a breakfast bowl is great nutritionally and gives extra crunch and texture. Enjoying a donut now and then is pure joy. Boyfriend?! He's one lucky guy!! 💕

[@NikkiVegan]

Aw thank you Jill, that's so nice 😊😊 He's really sweet and omg I agree about pumpkin seeds! I love the pursuit of living a healthy, happy life too and it seems like it's really the little things, like finding new ways to add extra flavor, texture and nutrients by sprinkling in some pumpkin seeds or having a donut now and again can bring. The sum of all of those little things adds up and feels so good ✨ Glad you can relate! Hope you have a great day! Sending you love

[@LeiahLuna]

I LOVED this video. It had a lot of amazing tips and examples of tasty food combos I never would have thought of. You are such an inspiration!

[@veganmeditations]

Such easy and incredible-looking meals in this episode! Thanks Nikki!

[@savannahremi]

Always so motivating when I see your videos!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thanks Savanah! I'm so happy to hear that! I get so much inspo from KZbin videos so I know that feeling of motivation well. It's nice to know that my videos can give you that feeling too 😊😊 I'm so glad you liked this one! Hope you have a great rest of your day!

[@karamontoya1814]

I love your videos 🫠 I wish I had an air fryer seems so much quicker! Thank you for another awesome recipe video. Your the best 💕 😇

[@straightedgeveganbel2453]

I made soup after seeing your last video, soooo good. It's definitely comfort food season.

[@NikkiVegan]

I'm so happy to hear that! And I agree, soup is my favorite this time of year 😊 I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@jacquelineflores8393]

There's a on line all vegan grocery store called go for it. Its vegan. Maybe you could check it out they have a very big selection of vegan items quite interesting

[@jslapensee83]

I wish we had a place to get vegan donuts here! 🍩 jealous Everything looked so good! Going to make the sweet potato apple salad, thanks for sharing ❤️

[@nikkiplantbased]

Definitely going to print the shopping lists! Thank you so much Nikki 🤗

[@NikkiVegan]

Yay! That makes me so happy! I loved designing those grocery lists and I truly use them aaallll the time. I linked them in the description box of this video and you can always find them on my blog under "Vegan Resources" 😊😊 Hope you enjoy!

[@NikkiVegan]

Thank you so much Julie! I'm so glad! You have no idea how much that means to me 😊 I hope you have a great day!

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Another awesome video Nicole with yummy 😋 recipes. I struggle to eat salad during the autumn (fall) & winter months. Nicole's video's are inspirational and love 🥰 them.

[@NikkiVegan]

Hey David! I know what you mean! Adding warm, cooked elements like roasted veggies makes it so much more appealing to me when it's cold out. I also have a warm salad recipe on my blog. It's a kale salad with miso dressing and I love it this time of year 😊😊 Hope you enjoy if you give it a try! Happy Wednesday to you ❤️

[@yogineferititi]

Congrats on your new bae! I always forget about cereal and ad ins for breakfast. Great video!

[@melrox8809]

Simple meals are great. It's all I have time for sometimes. The doughnuts looked so good. The vegan doughnut place near me closed 😔 Enjoy your day.

[@NikkiVegan]

Oh no! Maybe I can figure out a good recipe for homemade yeasted donuts one day. If so, let me know what your favorite kind are and I'll try to make a good recipe for that 😊 and I know what you mean! Simple meals are clutch most days. Hope you enjoyed these meal ideas ❤️

[@melrox8809]

@@NikkiVegan That would be so cool. My daughter & I could make them. I like chocolate, cinnamon & my daughter likes strawberry. 💓

[@devincollins6406]

is there a way to be vegan and do low carb?

[@georgianawickenden563]

Wow that breakfast bowl looks amazing I wouldn’t lose eating that. Do u recommend that only if not trying to losing weight . Yea boyfriend 😅 you said that adorable “ moving past that “ lol

[@annaburke8537]

I had the same journey with cereal and I do the same as you but still feel like I can't get full when I eat it for breakfast! Maybe it's a mental thing.

[@NikkiVegan]

I get that! Maybe try a larger portion or just stick to something else you enjoy. I’m an oatmeal girl at heart so that’s always go my to ☺️❤️

[@annaburke8537]

@@NikkiVegan cereal is just so quick. But I think it's meant to be a snack for me

[@traceykaminski7874]

I have tried poultry seasoning but it never has been great. Not sure how to compliment a dish with it?

[@NikkiVegan]

I season tofu with poultry seasoning, paprika, garlic powder salt and lots of black pepper. It's a delicious combo! Hope you enjoy 😊

The amount of fat in some of these things is not good for people in weightloss mode, but otherwise YUM!

[@natashalapierre4109]

Dont think that you know how to eat on the good side of the world (vegan eating). I dont think and dont believe that you eat all your whole meals to the end. Prove me wrong.

I would ❤️ to see you partner up with Magic Spoon 🥣.
