Wow this is right on time Nikki, thank you so much! I was just thinking about how I want to build my spices, I didn’t think about making my own mixtures, genius! Great video, very inspiring! Take care, ❤️Kathy
Your videos are so peaceful and calming 💖
Aw thanks! That’s nice to hear ☺️❤️
I love this !! Thank you
You look gorgeous Nikki! and I loved this video! I can't wait to make my own blends!
Great spice tips! I just got back from visiting la and was so overwhelmed with all the popular vegan restaurants. A bit off topic but would love it if you made a video on your favorite vegan places (fast food, nice dinner, healthy options, brunch, desserts, pizza, etc). I tried doomies and donut friend but would love to know your favorites!
Thank you for sharing! I have a go-to mix for oatmeal and one for general savory cooking, but the savory one is always the same. I am definitely going to try these- especially interested in the one with fries and the goji cacao one!!
Yay! Hope you love it! Try adding it to something sweet like frozen banana ice cream to offset the natural bitterness. All you need is frozen bananas, a splash of plant milk, and this mix and blend until thick like ice cream. So good!
Great ideas!!
Thanks Nikki I love this video much love from Nigeria
Thanks Nikki! I always tell people who think my vegan food will be bland that it's NOT! I use tons of spices & seasonings to add flavour, plus more nutrients! These blends are creative and sound delicious! Will definitely be trying some of them soon!
Thanks! I agree. Simple foods can be so delicious, I think more delicious than processed foods because with a few good spices you can really transform something so basic like a potato or carrot and turn in into something SO delicious. Plus they make you feel so good, and who doesn’t love that? Glad you liked this video ❤️
This will really help me. Before starting a plant based diet I was a fast food junkie. I pretty much never cooked except pasta which is still not cooking it is just heating noodles and sauce. Since going plant based 9 months ago I make some of the most boring although nutritionally strong foods. This video looks perfect to spice up my life and make my food more interesting. Thank you Nikki!
Thank you for sharing your recipes. I think I will make an apple pie mix first!
This is an awesome video! Thank you!!
Aw thanks! So glad you liked it!!
A wonderful idea!
It might be nice to arrange for individuals too!
Yeah! Great gift idea ❤️
Very helpful
great video. thank you
Good morning! I'm going to try the blend that you made and put on your oatmeal at the end of the video! XO
Great video! Very creative 😊😊😊
Thanks! I had fun making this 💚
"Prices of spices" haha that made me laugh way too hard! These are some amazing spice blends! I also love cardamom. Sooo fragrant and delicious!
Hahaha LOVE that you get my sense of humor lol 😂❤️ and yes, the smell of cardamom is the best thing ever!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING TIPS AND IDEAS AND INFORMATION AND RECIPES THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING
Aw thanks Cindy! This comment made me so happy! Thank you for taking the time to comment ❤️❤️❤️ hope you’re having a good day
I never know what to do with spice. Your recipes have given me some ideas, thanks! Btw, what are those mesh pan things you used in the video to make the fries? :D
Thank you 🎉
My pleasure! I hope you enjoy 🥰🥰
No Thrive in the UK.... 😐 can still find organic spices though so thanks for your spice mixes!
Nikki, I live in West hollywood. Go to Arbat grocery store which is a native Armenian grocer and by a jar of Aleppo Pepper (ground red pepper); the store is on the corner of Hollywood and Alexandria; you will love the tart and yummy flavor of the pepper. It's perfect on salads
Where did u buy the spice jars in the video? Thank u
Where did you find those cute little jars?
IKEA ❤️
Can you show us h I would to MN ake a mesquite seasoning salt ?
You said you were going to link the hot chocolate recipe below. Can you please do that. I'm going to work on these I go to sprouts bulk for EBT I don't think thrive lets you use EBT. Right?
Where'd you get your spice jars? xx
Whitney Anderson same!! I need those
I've seen that type of jar in assorted sizes at Hobby Lobby.
Paula Swain thanks! I checked amazon and didnt see them but will definitely check hobby lobby too.
she said at IKEA
Have you ever heard that you have higher odds of consuming microplastics using sea salt? It made sense to me. Himalayan is my choice. Thanks for the great info!😉
I loved the way you listed items from the hauls from trader joe and Whole Foods once...could you list all the spices you blended up in those 5 jars? I could not find the recipes for each jar, but perhaps I just need to write down your dictation from the video. Nice job on getting this together. You're right this can get boring!
That's a great idea! I am currently traveling but I will as soon as I can
Contrary to what most people believe, "organic" does not automatically mean "pesticide-free" or "chemical-free". In fact, under the laws of most states, organic farmers are allowed to use a wide variety of chemical sprays and powders on their crops. So what does organic mean? It means that these pesticides if used, must be derived from natural sources, not synthetically manufactured.
When you test synthetic chemicals for their ability to cause cancer, you find that about half of them are carcinogenic.
Until recently, nobody bothered to look at natural chemicals (such as organic pesticides), because it was assumed that they posed little risk. But when the studies were done, the results were somewhat shocking: you find that about half of the natural chemicals studied are carcinogenic as well.
This is a case where everyone (consumers, farmers, researchers) made the same, dangerous mistake. We assumed that "natural" chemicals were automatically better and safer than synthetic materials, and we were wrong. It's important that we be more prudent in our acceptance of "natural" as being innocuous and harmless.
I support "organic" principles such as conserving water, hand weeding, careful crop selection, and crop rotation. "Organic" does not guarantee any of those principles though.
I just commented about this too! I wish more people knew this. I see people all the time say organic is better because less pesticides are used which just isn't the truth.
Indian spice markets/grocery stores are good places to get spices in bulk
Thank you love these spice blends! Are your recipes just vegan or are they also keto?
You're welcome! Hope you enjoy them :) And nope, I believe in a well rounded whole food plant baed diet. Which means a good balance of fresh, colorful foods and a mix of carbs, proteins, and fats. That's what makes me feel the best and those are the recipes I like to share
Sweet potatoes with hummus ? :) hmm, I will have to try this like RIGHT NOW :)
Omg best combo ever! Let me know what you think ☺️💚
Is ketchup always vegan? I resently read something about the sugars in it beeing processed using bone char and now I‘m really confused..
Is it ok to eat chia seeds without letting them set over night?
I have the bell on... And for some reason I didn't get a notification >.
Oh no!! Thanks for letting me know. How did you end up finding the video?

Nikki: Is it all right to mix spices in water for a cool drink to aid metabolism, or is this not safe?
You know I could get into some great spices. I will not however give an email address to see what the next roadblock maybe. When I'm thinking about buying something online, I like to loo around and see what they have to offer, If I like it, I buy. I don't how every jump through hoops to spend money. Could even be a scan or something for all I know.
Organic does not mean pesticides weren't used. In fact, many organic veggies and fruits have had more pesticides used on them than non-organic. This is a common misconception.
your'e adorable
I like the video, but it's hard to hear your voice over the music.
I know! I’ve upped the video quality in the last few years. Hope you enjoy my newer videos a little better ❤️❤️
I love the spice blends, If you could take more time telling the ingredients, I will add the spices to the mixes, you talk too fast I have missed vital information.
You speak too quick but not writing the name of the foods so i can not learn how to do .....
Immediate thought (prior to video playing) "hmm she's cute" 1st thought when it started "ugh annoying voice" and as soon as she said "Nikki Vegan" I was done. Lasted exactly 5 seconds....I'll find a less irritating video regarding spice blends 😁
Ok creep
