When I buy too much kale and don't think I'll use it in time I throw it in the Vitamix with enough water to grind it, then pour it in ice cube trays and when frozen pop them in ziploc bags. When I make a smoothie I just throw a couple of them in.
With the fresh mint leaves, you Can make tabuleh (a lebanese dish using also bulghur) or some raïta (an indian dip made out of yoghurt, shredded cucumber, mint and ground cumin...so yum!) as a beverage, you could prepare moroccan green tea. Finally, for dessert, you Can mix chopped mint leaves with watermelon cubes and some vegan cheese similar to feta cheese. xxx
I love your style! I just discovered your channel and subscribed immediately! The music in the background, your entire style and aura is just nice! I'm inspired by the healthy foods you're eating because I'm starting to eat clean. I'm not vegan but I'm thinking of incorporating some of these ideas/meals/spices into my arsenal.
I've been doing a lot of research on Vegan life style after i watched a documentary that shook me to the core. "Lucent" A lot of the vegans i have been watching tend to have this positive beautiful Ora about them. You are now my favorite! thank you for being you and for these great videos.
I love your videos! I'm a vegetarian, considering going vegan, and you've really helped me get closer to the switch-over. You're very positive (some vegans on CZcams, sadly aren't as positive), and will be subscribed for a really long time!
+Alexa Rudley (Lexi) Aww, thanks so much Alexa! I'm here to help you along your vegan journey :) You'll always find positivity here!! Sending you lots of happy vibes! xoxo
Hi Cutty, You inspire me SO much, I love you! I make salads with fresh mint, with quinoa, colorful peppers, tomatoes and spices. I also make mint tea with black tea, or herbal tea, in boiling water and putting a bouquet of mint after I stopped the heat, put a top, wait a few minutes, and drink that.... also I keep the rest in the fridge in summer and drink on a warm afternoon. I also eat it with falafel, or hummus, SO good. Voila Jenne
I'm moving into my first apartment. I've been vegan for about two years but I wanted some inspiration on what to keep in my personal kitchen. I adore your attitude! I subscribed!!
I absolutely love this video. I just turned Vegan this January 2017. Like you, I've been transitioning for about 2 years now. I just subscribed mainly because you're a sister an secondly, your videos are AWESOME! YEAH!!! 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 Been watching other vegans here on CZcams too. I'm really happy you're vids are cool. Will be pulling from your recipes and infos a lot. My husband is very supportive and has been cleaning up his diet too. I think he'll be joining me soon. That's a huge help. Thanks a mill for sharing! 👍🏾
How funny, I just left you a comment on another video expressing how I appreciate you guiding us with your ideas and suggestions. I told you I needed help figuring out what to keep in my pantry and this video pops up! :). YASSSSSSS!! Thank you so much!!
I would love an update on this! Has you vegan kitchen changed during the last year? Do you have any new favorites? I would LOVE a new vegan kitchen tour! :)
Very good suggestion...I would love to see that also, but I think we would have to email her the idea for her to know we would like an up date...so anyone who reads his and loves Juila Back's idea send an email out ! :0)
Hi Jenne', you can make mint tea with your fresh mint.. it's lovely. Just put a few leaves in a mug and pour hot water and let them sit for a few minutes :)
You don't really have to soak your beans. In fact, canned beans are not soaked before canning. I cook a 1 lbs bag and freeze the beans in 1-2 serving packets.
I have dozens of spices and herbs too. Totally essential. My kitchen looks like rice, canned beans, frozen vegetables, potatoes, canned coconut milk, and coconut milk for cereals, salsa, avocados, corn tortilla chips, nuts, flax, chocolate soymilk, citrus fruits for juicing, and boxes of tea. Oh and peanut butter and jam.
This is a great resource! For the mint, I like to include it in frozen banana ice cream. I have a chocolate mint plant in a little pot. It is so delicious and will survive anything.
Mint ... Boil some water with a tea bag for every cup of water ... Put some mint in ur mug, pour ur tea into the mug and hv it with ur falafel sandwich ...
omg when u pulled out all the tahinis, then the HUGE maple syrup jug and the bouquet of mint :)))))) i swear your my twin sister/soul sister!!!!! love it!!!! :))))) btw chop up the mint superfine(1 tbsp), add 1/2 tbsps tahini,bit of carob molasses 1/2 tbsps, squeeze of lime juice, touch of seasalt and blend!!, now slather this creamy concoction onto your favourite slice of vegan bread!(or mini appetizer/salad)!!!!! bonappetit(afiyet olsun in Turkish)
I love your channel. As a newly converted vegan, I will continue to support you by watching all videos. That "Bootylicious" video was the bomb. Keep up the good work.
+Laura Karcich Congratulations on going vegan! I'm so happy to be a motivation :) I'm wishing you the best. Make sure you sign up for my mailing list. I'll send you a free meal plan, and next week I'm launching something special!! eepurl.com/YY471
Fresh mint is really good to make warm tea in the morning! It's really good to speed up metabolism and get your body going. Just a slice of lemon, mint, and hot water😊 let it sit a couple mins and bam. Fresh mint tea☕️. Also making banana ice cream with mint and cacao nibs is my favorite treat😛
+carolannechristine Yes, great idea! I'm going to do that for sure. I added it to a green juice today, and the a pea dip with mint & basil. So good! Oh, and I'm totally going to make that ice cream ;)
Great tip about storing kale in water...who would've thunk? My father-in-law makes some 'world-famous' mint ice tea...ok so he used to live in the Bronx but it's some GREAT stuff! Thanks again for inviting us into your kitchen. 😘
Unsweetened west soy milk is my favorite too! Trader Joe’s unsweetened soy milk is great as well. I love that I can just keep it on the shelf until I need it. And it’s not sickly sweet like a lot of soy milks tend to be. :)
The mynt is great in a pea soup, blend it and add a little cumin to it some salt pepper to taste and serve cold or hot. it is also great in Vietnamese pho, soup make broth with mushrooms instead of meat use rice noodles and top with fresh herbs like basil mynt, and lemon basil also beansprouts and nori so good, and some chili sauce.
thank you for the recipes! as a vegan I appreciate them. I will give it a try on the kitchen soon. I hope you keep making videos because I can't really find nice vegan recipes on other channels so! carry on. thanks again and have a great day! :)
Thank you for mentioning the bread! There was an Ethiopian restaurant in my city that closed a few years ago and I have missed that bread so much since they closed and I didn't know what it was called. Really excited to try making some myself. I'm sure mine won't be as amazing as the owners wife's recipe, but practice might get me there.
Why do you freeze your compost? I would love to see a video on how you dispose of fruit and veggie waste. I've had a hard time keeping the fruit flies away and some people I share a kitchen with aren't so fond of my the smell of my food scraps.
Hannah Banana freezing it is what will keep the bugs and smell away from your apartment! When you've accumulated enough, you can take it all to a community compost. There are a lot of grocery stores that do that and there's a farm about 45 minutes from me that accepts food scraps for compost so you might be able to find something like that
Hi Jenne, I just wanted to thank you for your videos and tell you how much I love your channel! I've been a vegetarian for quite a while now and always knew that becoming vegan was the logical next step, but I found the idea overwhelming and even a bit intimidating. I'd no idea where to even begin! I watched a few of your videos today and I've learned a ton! I feel motivated to go vegan now! So thanks again :)
+Dylan Quinn Hey Dylan! Thank you so much for your kind note. I am so glad to have you as a subbie, and extra happy to know that my videos have been helpful for you. Yay for going vegan! I'm here for you if you have any questions 💞
+Kyla Huebner Thank you Kyla!! You're so sweet 😘 Mint in water would be lovely indeed. I think I'm going to start infusing my water each morning with fresh fruit and mint 😉
Love your videos, they're so refreshing. I have a lot of the same items in my kitchen same brands and all. You can make different types of fresh mint tea's: strawberry mint, ginger mint just to name a few. Oh side note you should try the cacao nips, such a great topping for all those vegan desserts you make.
I live in a city too and I've NEVER known what to do with my compost, so I've just been throwing it out :/ Freezing it is such a great idea!! Great video
You must have such good self control! If my house was stocked with higher fat treats like nut butters, chocolate, tahini they would be gone in a day haha! And mint is good when infused with water :)
+Jessie Wang Hahaha! Of all of that, I eat the tahini the most. Soooooo good. You see, I don't have any decadent chocolate bars around. Those are my guilty pleasure for special occassions ;) Yes, mint & water I will do tonight! xo
Wow this video is just what I needed, thanks so much for the thrive link, just signed up. I use mint, chopped, in anything with Cumin, you might like it as a garnish to any Tahini application as well. Thanks again...LOVE PEACE
+Edna McKay Yes!! Guess what? Today, I added it to my green juice. So refreshing! Then I made a delicious pea dip with the mint and fresh market basil :) Thank you!! xo
you can make chimichurri, naam yum, & chermula with mint......however there is fish sauce in naam yum, do you know of a substitution that works for vegan fish sauce?
You should have the first vegan cooking show on Food Network.
When I buy too much kale and don't think I'll use it in time I throw it in the Vitamix with enough water to grind it, then pour it in ice cube trays and when frozen pop them in ziploc bags. When I make a smoothie I just throw a couple of them in.
+Craftlover 9 Ohhh, I love that idea! I have some spinach in my fridge that I need to do that with. Thanks so much :)
+SweetPotatoSoul You are quite welcome!! Thanks for all your videos that are helping me immensely as I am just starting my vegan journey...
With the fresh mint leaves, you Can make tabuleh (a lebanese dish using also bulghur) or some raïta (an indian dip made out of yoghurt, shredded cucumber, mint and ground cumin...so yum!) as a beverage, you could prepare moroccan green tea.

JonelleElise yeah. She totally rocks!! She is gorgeous.
For the mint, make a morning water!! Mint, cucumber and lemon. A liter of that when you wake up!! So refreshing, and detoxifying :-D
I was going to say this. Yes !! Yum
I was going to say this. Yes !! Yum
Oh that sounds so good and refreshing... Thanks for the idea ! :0)

U can use the mints in spring rolls. As a vietnamese, we use in in spring rolls and bun soup or bun xao a lot.

+MICHELLE JOHNSON-WELCH Thank you!! Oooo, mint iced tea sounds delightful. I need to do that before it gets too chilly :)
I love adding mint to smoothies! it's also great in chocolate puddings.
I've even had it in a salad at a restaurant and it was divine :)
+Goldie S Oh absolutely! I like the way you think. I adore pudding 😋
With the mint - chop some up and add it to strawberries with some lemon juice or zest OR add it to grapes with some lemon juice
+Janel Coleman Mmm, I like the way you think! Thanks Janel :)
Unsweetened west soy milk is my favorite too! Trader Joe’s unsweetened soy milk is great as well. I love that I can just keep it on the shelf until I need it. And it’s not sickly sweet like a lot of soy milks tend to be. :)
