Hi friends! Hope you enjoyed today’s vlog. It’s been a bit since I’ve done one of these so it was about time. Have a great rest of your day ❤️✨

[@normalopez2856]

Aww! Milly baby so precious! You just make your videos however is BEST for you!

[@bluebonnet1014]

Fun video! Aww you’re such a good mama. All the food looked good. 👍

[@JoywithPlants]

Thank you 🥰

[@LauraCastillejos]

It's not boring seeing you fix similar meals. It can be very encouraging for some people to see that they can keep this lifestyle simple. You make it seem doable! Really liked this style of video! Thanks, Milly! 💕

[@JoywithPlants]

Thank you for that reminder Laura 🥰

[@cyndij8312]

Regarding simple, repetitive meals, I think it shows other people that eating plant based doesn't have to be difficult. You'll have to let me know what you think of the Violife mozzarella. I use it on pita pizza. It doesn't melt but I find the taste acceptable. I tried Kite Hills sour cream a few months ago. Took one bite and threw it out! Yuck. For sour cream, I prefer Tofutti or make my own. Eating leftover aloo gobi for lunch. Yum. Happy to see the family.

[@JoywithPlants]

I have to remind myself of that because sometimes I truly feel like I have nothing new to share 😅 on pita, that sounds like a great idea! Much easier than making pizza dough 😁 oh no! That’s a bummer, I added it in some coffee cake muffins I made and I didn’t taste it much. I did add it to a burrito bowl and I actually thought it was somewhat tasteless 😅 I’ve thought of the tofutti but Im nervous it’ll take too much like tofu. I love tofu but I can’t imagine it as sour cream. Im going to have to give it a try now 😊

[@cyndij8312]

@JoywithPlants I've been making pita pizza for over 20 years. It's a little like thin crust because it's crispy. I bake it on a pizza screen. The tofutti is almost too thick. I love sour cream but unfortunately haven't found a great plant-based alternative.

[@brady6204]

Have you tried the Kroger Simple Truth brand of vegan sour cream? I’m a vegan foodie and it seriously is the best one I’ve ever tried! Reasonably affordable as well.

[@cyndij8312]

@@brady6204 Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, there aren't Kroger stores here.

[@cyndij8312]

@JoywithPlants Although I haven't tried them, both Violife and Follow Your Heart have sour cream. I just tried Daiya's new cashew-based mozzarella on pita pizza. It melts! Flavor is acceptable, too. Daiya was the first vegan cheese I tried years ago. I thought it was pretty bad! To get used to it, I used to mix it with dairy mozzarella on my pizza. When other brands became available (Follow Your Heart and Violife) I switched to them. But they don't really melt - just soften. So I might be back to Daiya since the flavor is improved. They have gone to a 7 ounce bag though instead of 8 ounces.

Loved the vlog format Milly! I still can’t believe how your baby girl is eating other foods now AND walking. I’ll have to try those plant based nuggets from Whole Foods. Next time you’re at Costco, you gotta try the Alpha brand of Southern style chickn strips. They’re so good and have a slight heat to them.

[@JoywithPlants]

Thank you 🥰 I know right??! It feels like every day she learns or does something new. The nuggets are sooooo good, my favorite little snack 😂 I looked for the Chick’n strips and I couldn’t find them. I checked the freezer section, are they located elsewhere?

[@FughetChu]

@@JoywithPlants I found them in the freezer section. I’m in CA so not sure if all costcos sell the same stuff??

[@fashionluvr15]

Milly, loved this vlog! I can relate to you so much as I have a 19 month old boy, and I get when you said you thought you were going to have more time but toddlers are so busy throughout the day! 😅 It does get better as you find the routine that works for you and your little one especially with them only taking one nap. Hang in there! I always enjoy seeing what you eat in a day as it is so relatable, I can’t spend hours cooking anymore so easy meals all day, also your grocery trips are my favorite ❤

[@JoywithPlants]

Yes! I have no idea where all the energy comes from for such a tiny human lol It definitely makes for a fun eventful day 😂 && thank you! Sometimes it feels like I’m out of things to share so very happy to know it’s still interesting ☺️

[@veronicarivero8644]

[@JoywithPlants]

Hi 🥰 thank you, I can’t believe it’s been over a year since I introduced you friends to our girl 🌸 that’s so funny! I’m here thinking all I’m sharing is fruits and vegetables sometimes 😆 I think I get in my head a little bit 😅 Thank you for always being so kind, appreciate your comments every time 🥰

[@SusanKessler-c8n]

Great video!!

[@JoywithPlants]

Thanks! ☺️

[@user56gghtf]

😊 I had a craving for pb cereal while I was in the store this week as well. I suggest trying it with a vanilla ice cream. It's so good. It's like having cereal with milk but the cereal doesn't get soggy. One of my favorite combinations is vanilla ice cream with frosted flakes (Whole foods, Target, and Publix have an organic version.)

[@JoywithPlants]

I would’ve never thought of doing that! Sounds so good! There’s this thing we used to have at a Mexican restaurant back in the day that was basically fried ice cream that was just that, a giant ball of ice cream covered in Frosted Flakes and then fried 🤣🤣

[@user56gghtf]

@@JoywithPlants I didn't think of how close that was to fried ice cream but you're right. I still have yet to have fried ice cream. Let alone trying to find a vegan one.🙂 The combo came out of necessity. Lol. As a kid growing up my parents would only buy the flavors of ice cream in vanilla, neopolitan, butter pecan, or orange sherbet. When you're a kid you'll try weird combos.

[@Elizerinc]

Your coffee and breakfast looked so good! How is that kirkland oat milk?

[@JoywithPlants]

Thank you! I personally like it but more so when it’s served over ice. When it’s steamed it does what I would describe a slight “burned” taste. But it’s not bad just not Oatly lol when I mixed it with the Califia milk it was perfect though 😊

[@Kx____]

thank you for this lovely video Milly

[@JoywithPlants]

Thank you for watching ☺️

[@FughetChu]

Milly we miss your videos! Hope you and the family are well!!! 😊

[@JoywithPlants]

Hi friend ❤️ We are doing well, thank you ❤️ I’m just personally feeling a tad bit overwhelmed to be honest and felt like a needed a bit of a break and reset from filming & editing. Ive been feeling that I have have nothing exciting to share 😅 Taking a nice little trip this week and hoping this gives me a bit of a boost ☺️ thanks for still being here 🥰

[@FughetChu]

@@JoywithPlants Awww I’m sorry you’ve been feeling that way! Take the time you need. Your sanity comes first and we’re all still be here when you feel rested. 🤗

[@jenniferg4101]

Great video, beautiful family

[@JoywithPlants]

thank you ☺️

[@anabelpolanco6354]

Missing your videos Milly so I am going through ones I might have missed previously. I hope all is well 💙

[@BadCarbNoDonut]

That tofu stuff looks so bad.
