You are such a joy to watch. Your enthusiasm, expression, and energy flows through the screen. You’re the most genuine CZcamsr I follow. Never stop! 🌿🌱🪴
Aw that’s so sweet and kind of you!! 🤗🤗
i added some spinach to my sandwich today and thought hey i need to eat more greens lol perfect timing!
Haha yay!
I would love a video demonstrating your meal prepping and planning process and how that comes to fruition in your kitchen. Love your videos!
I swear today I was thinking of ways to include more vegetables and particularly greens to my life. Thank you ❤
Very enjoyable ways to eat greens are:
1. Tabbouleh (parsley salad)
2. Falafel (homemade or otherwise good quality they should be quite green inside, a good recipes would be from the channal downshiftology)
3. Spinach cake (sounds wierd, but it tasts sweet and unoffending like a normal vanilla cake or whatever else you combined it with. Cinnamon or matcha are very good candidats!)
4. Spinach peanut stew (sounds wierd, but is awesome and a nore well knowen african dish)
5. pestou or other green sauces (go well with pasta, but also potatos, great addition to mashed potatos. Can also be used as a glaze and sauce for fish or chicken. I filled a whole troute with it and it was awesome! Does well on sandwiches too. Classicly pestou is made from basil, but the same concept works with other greens like parsley, carrot greens too.)
6. Greenpea and mint soup is a very good spring/summer dish!
7. Tortilla, Wraps or pancakes useing spinach
other tips
8. Just throw a bit of green mild green into whatever curry you might cook, or one pot pasta
9. Find ways to enjoy cabbage
( a. I love a wild variety thinly sliced as a refreshing and crunchy salad,
b. one can fill the leaves and steam them
c. make a very simple pasta dish by patialy browning the cabbage in a pan, adding butter or almond butter for taste, salt, and well some typ of noodle. Cabbage tasts increadably good once it got a some gold brown coloring going on.)
Meghan! Admire your encouragement and perspectives for including vegetables gratefully appreciated
Totally appreciate your perspective of adding more greens to our diet.. thanks for sharing this video Meghan❤
Megan, I love how much you actually love food. It's so encouraging to hear someone excited about good for you foods. Thank you.
Adding the greens to the smoothie is such a good tip, and has leveled up my smoothie game! Thanks!
This is such a great, practical video!! I’m definitely trying that hummus tip - never would have thought of that! Also, another tip that’s helped me a lot, is to chop greens SUPER tiny when cooking them. I have such a texture aversion to cooked greens, so biting into a whole leaf of cooked spinach is disgusting to me. But teeny tiny bits of spinach I don’t mind at all. It’s really helped me get more greens into my cooking. 🙂
Thanks Meghan for your inspiration. My husband and I try to have some kind of green every day.❤
You made greens sound so interesting by just the way you described them 👏🏼
Great ideas Meghan! I love the frozen greens ideas especially for using in smoothies. Or mixing in an omelette! 👍🏼
Your videos are always soothing and luminous, and very informative :) Thank you for making great content that's so enjoyable to watch !
Hi Meghan I’m new to your channel I like #2, using a leafy green as a wrap and your tip to adding extra starches to the wrap. I like hummus and making spinach hummus is a great idea! I love smoothies and this is a great way to add more greens. I agree with planning to have greens in your meal prep. All your tips are so wonderful and thank you for this amazing video!
Awesome to hear you’re enjoying greens in those ways! Hummus is delicious 😋
So happy I subscribed to you! Your videos are great and you present each one so well ☺️ here’s to living a healthier, happy life ✌🏻
The greens as a wrap thing is amazing. Love collards and chard for this. I make Korean-inspired "tacos" this way and they are spectacular. I actually find them pretty filling sans starch because of all the chewing I am doing (I haven't steamed them, though). Really great tips - thank you.
Such an interesting video idea! ❤️
Very helpful. Thank you so much Meghan 😊
Thank you Meghan... For such great ideas:) I have been following your channel from quiet long... Love your content:) stay healthy
Loved your tips! Thank you so much. I’ll try to incorporate some in my diet
You come with so Many good tips- you’re really listening.. Thanks Meghan 😊♥️🌼🌼🌼
It's like you read my mind! Thank you very much for this useful vid. This feels like a good friend giving me advise on eating healthy and free from judgment.
Thanks for these great ideas. I ♡ that it is spring and greens are easier to find fresh. Plus warmer weather helps me to not cook as much so I eat more salads.
Same, I love eating more salads this time of year!
Thank you Ms.Meghan for this greeny video😊😊
I found your channel thru some other persons ‘fav channels list’. I forget who as I dont follow them, was just channel hopping lol to see if I could find a new channel I liked.
After watching a sample of at least a dozen channels, this video is what has made me want to subscribe. I love it! First video Iv seen yet on greens and Iv been wanting to add greens to my diet. I know zero about greens so I really appreciate that you took your time and explained it all so well.
Subscribing now..💚
Hi Meghan! I love this video, there’s so many options to choose from! I have a quick question.. do you choose to eat foods that provide vitamins and minerals, or do you ever take supplements to help you get the proper amount you should have per day? Thanks in advance!
Great ideas! Thanks!
I love different accents and loved how you said "sprouts" and you said it like 10 times, it made me happy😁 (also, i love sprouts😋)
This video just came at the perfect 🤩 time.... i was thinking of ways to make my diet more healthy ..thank you 😇
These were fantastic tips.
This video came in perfect timing for me😍
Such great tips
thank you for the great information. Yes, start with a small portion. That way, you get used to the taste .
Even though I am a relatively healthy person I do tend to miss out on greens. Thank you for this video Megan!
that was great! thank you :)
I dehydrate my own greens before they go bad, then blend them to powder and use them in smoothies.
A good tip for smoothies: add courgette (zucchini). I put a 1/4 courgette into a smoothie and it really enhances the creaminess and thickens it up a bit but the flavour isn't detectable at all.
Yessss, I always eat the tops of celery and beets! When i buy them I make sure the tops look good because imma go in on those, too! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I forage for greens also! I get wild mustard leaves, wild onion, dandelion leaves, greenbrier, wood sorrel, pepper weed and curly dock. When Spring hits, i go out! Lol. But I did harvest some wild mustard greens I think back in November or December. The leave ate young and tender so I got me some. So good! I'm gonna try the humms tip! 😊 I like too try different greens. Like one bok choy. I did escarole, broccoli rob, and edive. Like I said before, I forage greens also. It's a great way to try different greens, and they are very nutrient dense! Oh, and i like to blend basil up with orange juice. Omg, so good!
Yay your not a hippie nut but a real person with realistic ideas! Thank you this was super helpful!
Great ideas👍🏻
adding some sliced cucumber as a side to my lunch makes me feel so healthy and put together haha. Thanks for the extra tips on how to add greens!
Lmaoooo @ put together
I should think 💯more like my house rabbit🐇...but in the meantime, thank you Meghan! This helps me break out of my ruts with veggies 😄. These kinds of videos are helpful for those of us trying to go more paleo and keto!
I love my house buns! They definitely make me feel guilty when I don’t eat as many greens as them in a day!
I agree, Chimichurri sauce is excellent, we like it on steak! And Kale chips rock, especially with nutritional yeast!!
The whole meal together sounds delightful, yummy!
Chimichurri is sooo good with steak! And yes love nutritional yeast too 😍
Excellent video
Loved this! Quick question for your expertise though. I recently had a huge Asian market open nearby with greens I’ve never seen or heard of before that I’m excited to try. What would you say is the bigger factor, getting tons of greens into the diet because of their benefits or making sure that those greens are quality, organic produce? I don’t know if you know what I mean when I say I don’t exactly feel the most comfortable with some random, unlabeled product, ya know?
Looking for small food processor, what do you recommend?
I love every one of your videos
I have a lot of trouble eating greens because I can't eat spinach and similar high oxalate greens, so this is very helpful, I love chimichuri and I completely forgot about it! Do you perhaps know of other low oxalate greens, such as parsley?
Hi megan please make a video on how you cure ibs
I make my chimichuri sauce with cilantro instead of parsley and it is amazing! I love to spread it on cauliflower and roast it in the oven, it's divine!
Great idea!
@@SpringFlowers537 my husband even likes it and he hates cilantro.
@@jenniferknowles2023 Ok I’m trying this! Thanks!
@@SpringFlowers537 let me know what you think.
Oh, and also another way to get different greens in your diet is to eat tree leaves. Many tree leaves are edible. I eat mulberry leaves. I love them. I justbwantntonsay, if you forage for wild plants, make sure you Identify them correctly before you eat them! Do not eat something or touch it before you know what it is! Take a picture of it, go home and try to identify it. Peace out everyone! 😊
I always buy frozen veggies and often use frozen peas when I want to add simple easy quick green vegetables to a meal that does not have enough.
I’m really bad about eating my greens. I like putting them in smoothies, but my ninja bullet just doesn’t get them fine enough for me. I’ll invest in a vitamix eventually! And I love the hummus tip. I have never heard of chimichurri. What is it?
Chimichurri is a sauce made of parsley,olive oil,,vinegar with red pepper oregano salt and pepper it tastes similar to pesto
You look healthy, it's beautiful
😍
my problem will always be a lack of organisation and motivation to cook that much. if someone made it for me sign me up!
