Honestly as a single person, I plan 4 meals for the entire week because I end up with leftovers. It’s also a lot cheaper to plan four meals with four portions. It may not sound appetizing to some people to eat the same things all week along, but I find there enough variety for me. On the plus side, I usually take some of the portions and freeze them as I then have options to take to work with me or have supper when on the nights I don’t feel like cooking. It’s win win for me.
That’s what we do to.
I loved that you actually highlighted that when you cook yummy, healthy suppers, you actually have leftovers! So anyone who thinks it's too much work to cook at home, saw that the rewards last longer than one meal! And it's totally ok to get take out during your week or cook something from your freezer! Great video. Thanks!
I really appreciate that you highlighted the value of meal prep services for people who have disabilities. There is so much ableism in the way a lot of people approach zero/low waste and I think it's important to make a lower waste lifestyle more inclusive.
Oh my goodness, your recipes are so good! We're not vegan or vegetarian here, but we've all noticed we are eating less and less meat and its not missed! Thankyou for all these cookery ideas x
Your dedication to productively working on your work days and having left overs is fab! Thing is it is hard to have different meals every day as we do have left overs and so it is so realistic to not have a full week worth of different types of meals. Give yourself a pat on the back for being accountable uploading real life content and showing us that we are not alone in not having time and needing a quick meal here and there :) x
Aww this makes me feel better not sharing lots of new meals as this is much more accurate to a classic week for me!
@@MadeleineOlivia🥰🥰
@@MadeleineOlivia I like both realistic vlog videos and the more stylized cooking videos. Both are great!
I love that this is actually a representation of real everyday life rather than making it fancy and extra effort for CZcams! Also I also do like a shop bought easy dinner on a Friday, in my family we’ve always done it. It used to be fish fingers, chips, and peas when I was little but nowadays I usually have the TofooCo battered tofoo bites, homemade chips (more like sautéed potatoes because I do them in a frying pan) or jacket potato, and a mix of peas, green beans and broad beans cooked form frozen, then vegan ice cream for pudding. It’s so nice to end the week with something easy and comforting like that!
Love these videos! A week of savoury breakfasts would be so great to see! Everyone else seems to always focus on sweet but I know you have mentioned before that you like savoury (as do I)
Honestly I love the more realistic content, I love to see a bit of cooking, leftovers, easy stuff, takeaways etc. Much more genuine and relatable!!
I love these type of videos! I hate waste too and constantly eating leftovers so I would enjoy more of these realistic type videos 😋
The amount of work u are putting in these videos is sooo appreciated . Love you and thanks a lot
You are the favorite person always and forever and dearest to heart🍡🍓🍧🎉🥰🥰💖♥️❤️❤️🌙🫂🥰
Awww thanks so much!
Realistic is good it shows life does not always go to plan but you can still eat well
I love seeing you coming out of your bad mental health space 😍 you seem so much happier and it’s so inspiring your making the effort to take care of yourself. Such a good influence for others xx
I love spirali too, it’s the most versatile of pastas. I use Riverford too. I smile when I see all the contents of your cupboards - I recognise all the content xxx delicious stuff xxx
I think the leftover medley plate was my favourite, I am so greedy when it comes to different veg and different flavours that i love lots of little bits like that. :)
Love this video! Recipie box's are also a great option for people with ADHD, who might find the proces of planning, shopping for and cooking meals difficult
Yes! Someone commented on my previous video saying also that they were autistic and vegan and green chef was the perfect option for them ❤️
Honestly just glad to see your content and I wanna echo what lots of folks already said in the comments but I love the reality and because I love daily vlog styles so much this is my vibe!!! Hope you have a lovely week !!
We really enjoyed the video. Thanks you for sharing your precious time with us. ❤
I cant decide on what to cook for dinner tonigjt so thanks for this inspiration!
love the honest representations! bc i dont cook everyday so i love this video. pls more !! xx
Everything in this vlog, looks delicious 💚💚💚💚
Always love your videos I dig em all the fancy recipes and the frozen meals haha thank you 🖤
I would love to see more recipes, I do find what you do is very tasty! I like to watch them being cooked if possible.
My absolute favourite tray bake is tossing a variety of veg in pesto and baking on high heat till caramelized and crunchy. OMG. So delish!
Wow I’m trying this!
I love the honest take!
I love to watch your everyday food choices. Cooking or not. Thanks for sharing !
This was a GREAT video! I appreciate the realistic blog style, instead of the really smooth produced recipe styles. I was already thinking that before you said this video was crap, so I felt the need to say, KEEP THIS KIND OF STUFF COMING please
You are just such a lovely genuine person xxx.
Loved that you shared how you really eat!! Enjoyed this so much! #leftovers❤
Loved the video!! Would love some breakfast ideas. I adm8t it's the meal I struggle with the most, as well as snacks in general 😅😅
Love your realism❤️ Leftovers are heaven❤️
Your 10 min man n cheese is something I have at least once a month or more. I just made it for my mom. She loved it too! I also love how many videos you put out. I love watching your videos!
I would love to see a breakfast themed video! 😊
I wanted to try green chef for my family whilst recovering from surgery, but just couldn't do it bc the amount of plastic waste upset me!
I enjoyed this video. Since it wasn't perfectly planned and had some store bought things made it fun!Turning vegan in N.Y. so don't know if that pizza is available but will try to find it. Never quite sure which plant based brands to buy so appreciate the recommendations. Just subscribed to your channel and can't wait to see what's next 🌱
Fellow NYer here - plenty of vegan pizzas here! I’ve never seen the brand she showed but Amy’s vegan pizzas are really good and widely accessible. Some markets have different brands. I haven’t tried the daiya gf crust ones but I hear they’re great!
@@lindsaytoussaint Yes there are but not in the very small town I'm in 😀 My natural food store has some but very expensive... Thanks for the tip!
Thanks for sharing this dinner video Madeleine. I am cooking using the slow cooker more to cut energy costs. The food is yummy 😋 and love 🥰 the video and love 💕❤️ Madeleine & Alex.
Greetings from Nova Scotia!🇨🇦. Keep it real - households are busy and we all have to be flexible . I enjoy your content very much!
I love watching what ever video you put out and appreciate so much all the hard work and effort you put in to creating new recipes and ideas. I really enjoyed this video and would love 😘see more of this, I also love the videos where you are cooking from scratch too, so I think a balance of the two styles would be perfect. Not to forget your DITL videos and the makeover video which are also awesome xxx ❤
What’s up
Hi Maddi. Thanks for another fab vlog. It's nice to see you doing loads of them again. Definitely nice seeing you eat as you would do. It's is a honest view of a normal life. I always over cook and end up eating leftovers. Meal prep kind of. Definitely will try that pizza looks so good. 😋
You are a good soul
Yes to the mushrooms!! I add them to pretty much everything
Everything looks superb, albeit I think the Tuesday one is my favourite.
Every thing look so good 👍
I enjoyed this realistic video of eating during the week! I'm a student so I often make bigger meals to have lots of leftovers so I don't have to cook that much and it's cheaper :)
Lovely meal. Thank you. What gravy mix do you use please?
Minimalism includes work, at least my interpretation is you reduce consumption so you can enjoy your life more. Reducing tasks some days by eating leftovers instead of always cooking can reduce food waste and increase time to do things you love. Even if you love cooking, sometimes a break is needed.
Please do breakfast next!! I'm such a breakfast person :) This was so inspiring because I put as much effort as you did here into maybe one meal a week (it's awful like what am I doing) and this makes preparing actually nice food seem so approachable! Also idk you just seemed quite friendly and lovely in this vid and it's made my evening
beautiful presentation
I love your video, just keep being yourself you're absolutely charming
Aww thanks!
It all looks so tasty! I thought the mic sound was Roxie tap-dancing in the background (trying to get attention).
Watching this while eating dinner in bed. When you mentioned that you and Alex haven’t eaten together at the table all week I realized that my partner and I almost never use our dining room table😅
Hi! How did you make gravy so fast for your Monday roast? Thanks for tips!
Gravy granules from a pot haha as in pre-made
It’s so funny to hear you say take away when here in the US we say take out they are a lot of things that you say that make me laugh that’s OK I enjoy watching you all so much.
I’m living in the UK for a few months and thanks to you I cannot stop eating those chicken tenders 😂 they are honestly the best thing ever 😄
Hahaha oops sorry
@@MadeleineOlivia me and my husband both had to double check the packaging 🙀
Hi Madeleine and Alex, I'm sick in bed with covid and when I saw you had a new video that made my day. I haven't had an appetite while I'm sick plus don't have any energy to cook, so Green Chef box would be ideal for someone home sick because you don't have to think about anything. Madeleine I tried to find the recipe for the pesto pasta but couldn't see the link. Thank you for your videos lovely
I hope you get well soon! The pesto pasta recipe is on my instagram or in my ebook Plant Kitchen Comforts x
@@MadeleineOlivia thank you so much. Thank you for responding. I have been meaning to get your ebook. I love your videos so much, your always so comforting to watch. Take care
Your skin is amazing
Awww thanks! As a skincare fanatic this is the best compliment!
Lovely to see you eat leftover food. We do too. One cook day one easy quick meal day.👍🥰
Love leftovers...... loved the recipes 😀
Hey Maddie, what’s the Indian in Hayle? I’ve struggled since moving down here to find a really good Indian xx
I prefer the realistic videos, using leftovers, coming up with meals on the fly, etc.
Madeleine Attenborough with the pizza 😂❤️ ”and here we have mushrooms in their natural habitat, and the predator - Maddie” 👀
Hahahahaha omg
How do you make the gravy? :)
Good evening indeed ! Thank you for the video, you always cheer me up. I always cook for 6 (habits die hard) and I live alone ... so whose the idiot ? ;-)
Hahaha I always cook so much too! It’s a problem…
You look so pretty in your dungarees
Thank you! 🥰🥰

I’m feeling some mom emotions and want to warm everyone not to leave rice or pasta out at room temp for more than 2 hours.
💕💕💕💕💕💕
🥰
I'd rather see what someone would normally eat if it's a what I video. If it's cooking it should be called "vegan dinner ideas" or something
In your opinion ..🤔😁😘
@@djaneab I was just saying because she was saying she felt bad for not having many recipes in this video and just showing what she normally eats. And I was saying I actually like that kind of video
Sounds like a healthy decision. Any vegetarians here?
:)
You are delightful. Monologue: 2 minutes is long, when people want a visual. If you speak about the front door, a gate and a wall, show those things as you talk. That's my advice.
Leftovers are great! However, slighltly concerned that you were having leftovers on sunday of what you made on monday...i hope you froze it or something 😮
Haha maybe wasn’t the best idea but it was just veg!
I feel like every time I watch a new video of yours you seem less and less interested in sustainability, I started watching in your minimalism and zero waste time, and now every video you buy new stuff or just don't seem to care about plastic waste. All those individual servings in that box it's just unsustainable and unnecessary, this box as a teaching method is just the same as your channel, and we are already here. I know you will probably think I am just a hater, but I enjoy most of your videos, and I've been here watching and supporting you for a long time
I am not less interested, I have just changed my viewpoint. If we are talking of Green Chef in particular, I shared my viewpoint about why I believe it to make sustainable living accessible in the video, which of course you can disagree with. I have to, and love to, think of all the varying people watching my videos. Those who are disabled, with children, mentally ill, busy, tired, new to cooking etc etc I could go on… who this particular service would be appealing to. The thing with “zero waste” and “plastic free” is it has no nuance. It is so much more complex. As I’ve got older I’ve understood the complexities better, and realised that the perfect, and honestly fake, vision of minimalism, sustainability, zero waste living, veganism etc. is just a farce. It isn’t accessible or realistic for the vast majority of people. I could make videos pretending I am able to cook everything from scratch, always avoid plastic, have time to grow all my own veg, use zero waste everything etc. but I would be lying to my audience. I am a human being and I live in an imperfect wasteful world. I hope to be access point for the many people who are interested in becoming vegan, living more sustainably, re-evaluating their shopping habits etc. Thanks for sticking around for so long, and I’d hope that if you remember my old videos I’ve always had the point of view that I’m not perfect, and I’d never want to encourage anyone else to be. I have also never ever liked the term “zero waste” or used it to refer to myself because it’s always been clear as day to me how unsustainable, inaccessible and unrealistic that way of life truly is. I hope this gives you more insight into my point of view on this :) because honestly living a life where I put the pressure of the world’s problems on my shoulders wasn’t a happy one.
Honestly as someone who started getting into zero waste about 6 years ago….your mindset does change as you learn more! For me It’s less about eliminating every single piece of plastic and more about flying less, driving less, eating vegan, voting for legislative changes, supporting smaller businesses, and more ethical companies. I do think it can wear on your mental health when you get super hyper focused on plastic elimination because it’s still such a big part of society and can cause a lot of day to day anxiety.
Cover the freckle top of your nose with concealer, its distracting from your beauty.
As if you would comment this! I love my freckles 😱
I like her freckles! 🤷♀️
I have the same type of freckle on the bridge of my nose. How rude.
