"ridiculously small coffee mug" it's just a normal coffee mug in europe 😂 I know y'all are different and I love you for that but it was so funny to me
Haha oops. I just love my giant cup of coffee☕️
Yes I drink even smaller cups of coffee that's why it's called an expresso 😂
Lmaooo yesss I’m from Miami and we drink Cuban coffee in those “mugs” i died when she said that 😂😂
been living in Europe my whole life and that mug is TINY, I'm with Abbey on this one 😂
@@chapa2282 sameee
I think i need a green goddess salad with crispy chickpeas now. That looked incredible omfg. AND THAT PLANTAIN DESSERT?!? I need asap. What a delicious day. Loved this
Sooo good
I’ve been vegan for almost 10 years, grew up in Detroit, and I’m a HUGE fan of Lizzo. I just want to point out Lizzo is an actual Popstar, she’s incredibly wealthy (love that for her). Being vegan- even in poorer neighborhoods in Detroit and beyond, doesn’t have to require so many ingredients and doesn’t have to be expensive. Loved this video!!
she is a classically trained artist. she just happens to be a r&b hip hop artist
Same I grew up in poverty and in poverty I became vegan. I’ve been vegan for almost 12 years went vegan at 16, living in a household of 14 thousand a year for family of 4 an am still vegan and very healthy.
To anyone unimpressed by Just Egg liquid or the microwave version, try it toasted in the toaster. We’ve tried the liquid, and it wasn’t our favorite. The pre folded ones are so good if you drop ‘em in the toaster, rather than microwaving. Delicious!
Good to know!
+1 I have the folded just egg stocked in my freezer at all times!
I came down here to say just the same thing! I have the frozen Just Egg toasted often for breakfast. Toasting it gets the best flavor (as opposed to microwave, oven, or stovetop). And the liquid is... meh. Good for baking, not for scrambles.
Great tip!
I can imagine eating that "nature's cereal" in the summer on the super hot day for a first breakfast when you wake up too warm, or in the afternoon, cause it looks delish even if the name is stupid
Yeah super refreshing for a healthy lil snack imo
I’d just call it berries and coconut water. 😂
Abby I am overweight (I am also very short, and generically the women in my family were chubby) but just by following the general rule of adding protein and fiber (without making stuff taste bland), I have lost about 6 kilos. Not in a month but rather 3. But I got at a point where my ... What do you call it... Wright plateau, is smaller than I have ever been, personally.
And I feel ok with this.
You helped me see that losing weight is not a goal. Not timed. But rather.... A process. That one's body will go through, if you give your body what it needs.
With 0 exercise, and not a day of feeling restricted or "punished", I lost more in 2 months than I ever did in my life, following "traditional diets" (aka stuff focused on weight loss rather than .. well, common sense)
Pardon my English. I am Romanian.
I feel like I was ahead of the "Natures Cereal" trend...When I was younger my sister and I would put all of our fruits in a bowl, put orange juice in it and freeze it for an hour or two to get it cold and slushy. It was spectacular.....I may have to try again with my kids now.
Oooh yum!
i really appreciate you acknowledging how much time and effort it takes to cook 3 perfect meals a day
Thank you for making me aware that lizzo never choose to be a/the spokesperson/face of bodypositivity but the media made her that 🙏🏻 She is just a (worldfamous) person trying to live her best life, not live up to a certain label other people forced onto her.
15:33 Her brown rice wine vinegar is probably "kurozu". It's a type of rice vinegar that is aged for a few years, during which it develops this color. It's also called "black vinegar".
I truly appreciate the dog acting as a spotter during her workout! 😂
I love that you are doing vegan meals. I would love to see a few more vegan or vegetarian celebrities. I love the meal inspiration. Your videos are always so great and full of knowledge.
So...I tried the whole "Nature Cereal"...it was good but...I ended up needing ACTUAL cereal 5 minutes later
the candle had me actually laughing out loud with a mouth full of food
I wanted to add this episode was fun. Just healthy food and no talk about weird restrictive diets. Also, considering Lizzo has great energy, I like what she is doing over the thinner celebs tracking all their calories and macros.
I have had a severe egg allergy for as long as I can remember and for the longest time a tofu scramble has been my egg replacement. We Just Egg launched several years ago I was SO EXCITED to have an actual replacement for eggs and I really wanted to try them but being the skeptic I am looked up reviews and saw an overwhelming amount of hate towards the products that I didn't try them. But when Miss Lizzo came on the scene and gave them a glowing review I decided to look up people with allergies or those following a plant based diet and found the opposite they all mostly liked or loved the items. We like both the liquid and patty version of the products in my home. My toddler son likes the patties diced or sliced into strips and my one year old daughter likes the liquid scramble with crumbled bacon, sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, and fresh spinach 😍😋🤤. Now if they could keep the price at a reasonable rate we'd have A+ products in our books.
I tried it once it tastes strange like chemicals doesn’t it? I was bummed cuz it would’ve made my life easier with food allergies,,,maybe I need to try it again
@@peanutbutter4726 they spoil pretty quickly and if you get the liquid version and the bottle gets puffy/swollen and kind of explodes when you try to open it toss it out it's gone bad. I always have to check the date to make sure there's enough time to use it before it goes bad and because it's kind of pricey they sometimes sit on the shelf without getting tossed and replaced with fresh bottles. Both forms have a nice savory flavor and chewy/bouncy texture. The liquid cooks best in a nonstick skillet. I usually add a bit of salt, garlic powder, and black pepper to each form but if I make a scramble I add a strip of bacon, sautéed mushrooms & sweet bell peppers, and spinach.
The way I cracked up when you put the candle in your breakfast burrito… 😂😂
Dude I’m dying I love it 😂
😅😅
I'm from Costa Rica and we grow up with those banana covered on chocolate and nuts, but we do it put in half banana in chocolate and them put crushed peanuts or nuts on top. My mom used to made it and keep it in the fridge in summer ❤
Love this
Yea In Mexico we call them choco bananas
Healthy I would like to mKe this for my Grandchildren maybe they can help
Abbey! I was so stressed at how long you let that cereal sit in milk before you ate it!!!
It probably didn’t get too soggy thanks to the protein powder lol. But I still prefer my cereal without any liquids.
I haven’t watched the full video yet but I just wanted to share that in Brasil 🇧🇷 where I was born, curves have been celebrated forever and if you go to a beach in Rio you’ll see women of all shapes, sizes, colors etc rocking their bikinis 👙 with Lizzo like confidence (I actually borrow my mom’s!). My family and many Brazilian people focus on health that allows our bodies to walk beachside, swim in the ocean… of course I have to mention that we’re all proud of our 🍑 s!
I love this❤
@@AbbeysKitchen my mom was feeding us HCCs and she didn’t even know it! I’m a Brazilian and Portuguese professional ballerina trained in Ukraine 🇺🇦 Russia 🇷🇺 and Romania 🇷🇴 ! After being bullied for being too thin, my mom thought I might find my calling in ballet. She was right! I’m probably the rare ballerina who actually eats everything (cheese is a major food group in my book). I love all fruits and vegetables but actually have to save them for my post performance dinner after dancing 9 hours on a working day! I love all Eastern European foods especially borscht! And all my former ballet coaches, artistic directors and other company members know that I HAVE to have my pre performance Nestlé Crunch chocolate 🍫
I feel like the rest of the world is catching up. Brazilian women are legit beautiful.
@@JuliasHairJourney on behalf of all women in Brasil 🇧🇷 I thank you 🙏🏻
But what makes me more proud is the fact that we all compliment each other. We appreciate others’ beauty with no jealousy. If you ever go to the motherland be prepared for random genuine compliments (especially about what we call our gifts to the world - 🍑s, I promise we are not creepy about it!).
@@isabelaandzico Brazilian people seem really cool this way :). I love what is shared about your culture here on CZcams
I love your comments about salad and enjoying one not meaning a "diet or weight loss" reason. Years ago, one of my many, many failed attempts in dieting/weight loss, I tried the Dukan Diet,....before the first week, (and I'm talking 5 days, not 7), I was craving a basic salad so badly I thoroughly gave up. Hundreds of dollars wasted trying to commit to a diet that was going to work for me. Your HCC makes so much more sense nutritionally, financially and customizable. As always, thanks so much for your time and efforts!
Same, I frickin LOVE salad! As such, I cannot believe there are fad diets that almost completely eliminate vegetables (meat-based), I have a mate who expects to lose weight on eating just meat! He may lose weight bur gain heart disease... just sayin' 😊
For anyone wanting a cheap alternative to Just Egg, they’re made mostly of mung beans and Cheap Lazy Vegan has a dupe recipe that works great!
I loved poppy spotting you during your workout. 😂😂😂
Thank you for a sane, sensitive approach to this divisive conversation
Of course🥰🥰
Kellogg’s isn’t vegan due to its vitamin sources, but this can easily be replaced with a vegan cereal. Thanks for the inspiration!
I haven’t seen Abbey in a while but I am really enjoying this new style! So lively and fun 🤩
Abbey I LOVE these videos but all I could think about when you were making the wrap for breakfast is how soggy the cereal would be sitting in the milk while you made the wrap hahah but thanks for making these videos! I love your non shaming approach.
Sorry!😂
I actually like soggy cereal lmao , it all tastes good to me!
@@kittyfriend9888 A lot of people like it hahaha so no shame in that game, just not for me!
@@kittyfriend9888 me too. I love soggy cereal!
Lol I thought I was the only one... I tried to get on the oats band wagon but the soggyness was excruciating 😢
I've said it before & I'll say it again: I LOVE your editor 😄
Dude, this was LIT. Thank you!! 🙌🏻🥰🫶🏻
Loved this episode, so fun and creative! It makes me want to try vegan recipes
I love the improvised "toothpick" and that you lit it for the plating.... 🤣🤣🤣 Also, the sweet in the dressing was probably from the rice wine vinegar.
This is some of the most delicious food I’ve seen on the channel, amazing!!
Omg yes - I need to try this take on plantains!
🥰
I think it's the best timing I've ever experienced on CZcams! Happy Easter y'all! 💚💛🐣
Happy Easter!
Love you Abby! And you are hilarious so many laugh out loud moments in this video! Love your sense of humour 🥰🥰. I love Lizzo! And have naturally been moving towards more plant based options so this is a super helpful video!!
I love the idea of jackfruit as a protein source/meat substitute... but yeah, it doesn't have much protein and I feel I never get satiated while eating it. In my country, it's also ridiculously expensive. I stick to my soy proteins and beans. I'm going to buy some cabbage though!
I'd love to be a vegetarian but I'm celiac, IBS and intolerant to beans AND I have an underactive thyroid (soy products are a no no)... I'm doomed
@Frankie Favero you have to do what's best for your health first and foremost.
@@frankiefavero1666 if it works you can try adding this to your diet before you cut anything out but i find vital wheat gluten super helpful!
I never understand people that judge us fat people for living ourselves. First, mind your business. Second, we are worthy of living ourselves at any size. People need to stop pretending they care about our health when really I just think they think fat people are less than.
Abbey I've been watching you for a few years now, but I have to say, your recent editing choices/ multiple locations/ laid back talking is really REALLY a hit for me! I loved your vids before, when you sat face on in your old kitchen, but these videos are soooo dynamic and fun to watch. Also, love your stripped back chatting during the cooking parts. Great work and props to you and your team! :)
Also I have a pro tip for those who make this style of enchilada, taco, or whatever, have a side of beans instead of trying to figure out some hack. It's fun to experiment, but it's not really necessary to reinvent the wheel.
Tip for making the salad dressing: go easy on the cashews. They make it sweet, but also thick and pasty if you have too many. The flavor was good but ours would have been better with like 1/8 cup of cashews. This is the downside of a recipe that has no measurements. I prefer to start with measurements and make it my own from there.
Those GIANT handfuls of both cashews and walnuts made me gasp! Waaay more than an entire day's serving just in that dressing. I'm not fat-phobic, but that's just a bit too much for one meal.
On a side note: I'm not big on my salad swimming in dressing, so while the dressing sounded good, there's no way I would dump the entire blender full onto my one serving of salad!
I know Abbey means well, but sometimes I think she goes too far in the other direction from restricting. You don't want to restrict, but it's also not necessary to go way overboard, either, just to prove you're not restricting!
She's a vegan n ppl think she eats fried chicken n bathes in gravy. Like leave her alone ! She loves herself ! Even if she looked like a victoria secret model, I still would love her.
@B she don't be eating that ! Lot of ppl are big doesn't mean they ain't healthy. I eat healthy n I have curves and a little meat on me but I can run faster then any skinny person out there. I love the gym n always active. Stop hating on ppl !! She loves herself n that has nothing to do with u so why does it bother you ?! Regardless she's beautiful and rich something u will never be
being obese is dangerous causing serious damage to her health
You can still over consume “healthy” foods, which Lizzo clearly does since even with her high level of movement she’s maintaining her unhealthily high weight
@@B_27 I should just to piss u off
@Tay she don't eat unhealthy
Abbey is the kind of chaotic that just screams Sagittarius. Turns out we share the same birthday. I know a sag when I see one. 😂
Great video f so many reasons. Shout out to a nutritionist respecting some delish vegan food. Thank Abby. Thanks Lizzo. Plantains. Always wondered what to do w them
I was a size 4, ran every day, and my doctor told me I was obese...I was 120. it caused my eating disorder. I will never forget being a teen and being terrified to step on a scale
Was your Doctor ill themselves? Cuz wtf
Unless u were like 4ft tall that's Bs
Bullshit
I will say I do definitely find a difference between the just egg liquid and just egg patties. I enjoy both, but definitely both serve different purposes, and I would personally only use the patties on like a sandwich not as like a fried egg or a scramble it just doesn’t give the same effect as the liquid does for certain purposes ☺️
And I definitely do my Pattie’s in the toaster or air fryer ☺️
That's what I've been hearing!
Great video Abbey. Would love to see you eat like Priyanka Chopra for the day!
My Dominican dad would always make that dessert. So good. I like to add milk and eat the plantains like cereal
Genius!
The candle 😂. Love this!
I watched a Lizzo tiny desk concert and cried! I grew up in a time where it was sooooo hard to feel worthy of living a full life when you don't fit the body standard. I aspire to her level of self love, beyond "body positivity" or whatever else she gets put on her.
YUM makin’ those enchiladas tonight 😍 hopefully they turn out as good as yours haha totally winging this 🥴 wish me luck!
The salad making and the chips cracking part of this video was so chaotic 😂
Oh, my goodness! The birthday candle was hilarious.
I honestly don't think it's helpful to not distinguish the differences between being overweight and class 3 obese when talking about the relationship between weight and health, it just mystifies the (very real) health risks of obesity even more. Feel like it would have been better to leave that part out entirely instead of downplaying the health risks, that's the kind of sugar coating that kept me in denial about the impact my weight was having on my health
That is very well put. I totally agree.
Totally agree. While I understand not wanting to hurt anyone’s feelings but people should be allowed to say speak factually without being accused of some phobia. It’s not what you say but how you say it.
❤
There are no health risks caused by weight that aren't actually just caused by being treated worse by medical professionals.
@@Rose-jz6sx Can you clarify? I think you mean the medical industry worsens the health of obese people? I agree if that's what you're saying.
Im good at pushing through when things get tough. I recently got diagnosed with RA, and am just getting back into working out after a year not doing it. I know its possible, and I just dealt with a yeat of joint pain before getting a diagnosis. I am good at pushing through when life doesnt go as planned
i grew up not eating red meat (due to intolerance in the family) so it was chicken and turkey replacements but my momma hated cooking meat so we had a TON of meatless meals and to this day, i almost always choose tofu over anything else because the texture and taste is incredible. we also make jackfruit pulled pork sandos and they are amazing, i prefer it over regular pulled pork. i turned my meat and potatoes raised best friend / ex boyfriend into a man who can perfectly cook a tofu stir fry and now regularly eats plant based meals with no problem and no thought 😂 i do love a perfectly cooked steak but other than that, the less meat upbringing prevails!
I loved your story! But as someone with a diagnosed under active thyroid who loves tofu, I've had to wave goodbye to it 😢
I'm confused..lizzo is very overweight. How is her diet healthy and why is it being recommended?
Oh the candle holding the wrap had me creased 😂
That "fruit cereal" makes me chuckle every time 😅
I was feeling bad about how weird my dinner is (trying to make it balanced) and the candle toothpick has made me laugh and feel better about my own patchwork dinner 😂
The candle made me laugh way harder than I should have!
Not you lighting the candle tho lmaooo. I love it 😂😂😂
Abby's Cereal Cost = $48.41😢 (Walmart) blueberries & raspberries 5.74, Equate plant protein 17.44, hemp harts 10.97, Chrispx 4.98, Ripple & Puffins (wegmans) 9.28.
These are thing u can make multiple meals from it
Love the jusy egg Pattie’s but always make them in the oven with some black pepper just yum!
the candle killed me!!! lmao awesome
This salad looks bomb. And it looks easy to make which I love
I am dead that at the birthday candle 🤣🤣
thumbs up because you actually lit the candle lol
I'm Puerto Rican and grew up eating plantains 😊 Just a note for anyone wanting to try sweet plantains - the ones Abbey used looked like unripe ones to me (the peel is green, texture is stiff and more like potatoes/starchy). When we eat them sweet (called maduros or amarillos) we wait for the peel to basically go black and yellow, that's when they're ripe/soft and the taste is much closer to bananas. When we fry them up unripe they're squished into a patty (tostones) and it's one of my favorite comfort foods 🤤.
I love Lizzo . . unrelated, Abbey please tell me you are going to review the new Rob Lowe /HB what I eat in a day!
I love eating fruit for dessert instead of a classic dessert most days. Thank you for telling me I’m not part of the diet culture! Don’t get me wrong….I love I good chocolate chip cookie!!
Can you do a video on Healthnut nutrition? She’s another Canadian CZcamsr like you, and it seems like she has a pretty healthy view on eating but would love to see your perspective. Thanks for your content!
I love plantains, and I love Lizzo!! This video was great ☺️ it's ridiculous that people can't have a normal conversation about Lizzo without personal attacks or talking about her weight.
LOVE Abbey’s salad comments. ‘Diet culture doesn’t own salad’ YES!! 😍
I’m rolling because of the birthday candle😂😂😂
Lizzo is vegan thats so dope I love her now I never had an opinion of her before I never knew who she was I love vegans
We love Lizzo here
You think Lizzo was fast in listing the green goddess dressing ingredients? Try baked by Mellissa's version who I'm pretty sure started the trend. Had to listen to that narration 30 times! LOL!
Omg,I will make this salad tomorrow 😍
If you handled the BMI topic well, maybe you can address perimenopause nutrition...
"Aint nobody got time for that!" bit 🤣🤣🤣😂😄😁
love the candle :D :D lol
I’d love to see you recreate a 1950s diet.
More historical diet content
Oh so much sugar
what your body can do is much more important than how it looks
I never thought of MIXING CEREAL?! This changes everyting...
I know, right?! Also, to flavour up plain potato chips, make a dipping sauce by mixing equal amounts of mayo (or egg free vegan mayo) and ketchup in a bowl (add some yellow mustard for tangyness) into a small bowl, this is called Golf Sauce in South America... delicious!
The birthday candle in the wrap 😂😂😂
Sometimes I just think that some people are just chubby or bigger and that's just their natural state and long as they're okay then it's nothing to worry about.
220 and under, yeah
And also like, some people like food and want to prioritise that over how they look, that's okay too! Bodies are morally neutral.
@@Rose-jz6sx cope
I liked the puns on the song titles lol. Great vid as always.
This didn't age quite well 😅
Excuse me, I live under a rock. Can you tell me why? Lol
Vegans can be overweight, too.
literally who even asked
Time for my morning ritual... making breakfast while watching Abbey!
New subscriber here. I actually don't know about hemp hearts. You have said this in multiple videos but I'm lost!
They're like chia seeds or flax seeds in that they're something tiny you can sprinkle on food to add particular nutrients without changing the food very much. In the case of hemp hearts, they add protein, healthy fats, and have a lot of health benefits. A quick Google says doctors recommend 3 tablespoons a day to see benefits, but I doubt you need to be so religious about it if you're eating healthy in general. I know Costco sells big bags of them, but I'd bet you can find regular bags of them in standard supermarkets.
@@kobaltkween Thanks! I Googled too but wondered if I was missing some miraculous info on them!
@@floridafamilyfun1597 You're welcome!
How is Jillian Michael's still a thing?! I love Lizzo food tiktoks!
Yeah fuck the woman who actually has discipline and purpose in life other than eating, who has done something respectable. let's praise lizzo because we feel bad for her.
When she pulled out the “ridiculously small coffee mug” i was NOT prepared as an european lol.
Whisk JUST egg with a splash of almond milk and add FreshJax tofu scramble mix. Then, microwave it in a bowl for 1 min 20 seconds. It becomes a fluffy, eggy, scramble. Perfect for a breakfast sandwich!
Lizzos got the talent!
The candle😂
Couldnt agree more with your point about your body size does not indicate their fitness level 💯💯
I used to be obese when I was younger and won medals in mutliple sports yet I was always shamed as a lazy fat person at school and by my family. Thanks so much for making a point on this!! This is much needed 💯
19:40 did not age well 😅
OH 2 minutes ago not 2 months ago
Lol
The olive oil in the dressing!!! Wow!!
Oh that salad and chips!!!!!!!!!!
Halfway in ànd this is by for my favorite
Girl you really need to put these videos that you refer to in the description or something because I can't find any of them.
