    Thank you for this video!! I've been vegan for 7 1/2 years now and sometimes I get stuck in a rut with food depending on what season of life I'm in. Sometimes I tend to eat more convenient/processed foods because I get so tired or bored of cooking. It's so helpful to be reminded of the simple ways to incorporate more whole foods! Always gotta go back to the basics!

    It's great that you consume oats, spinach and other plant foods. Today I heard a German doctor explain the importance of 'silica'. It's very important for healthy bones and skin but people don't eat enough food that contains it. They just concentrate on calcium but that is not really effective because the body eliminates artificial calcium (as in tablets) when we go to the toilet.
    This is a list of foods he mentioned, that contains silica and should be included in one's diet. Older people need even more silica than young people:
    oats
    millet
    sesame seeds
    barley
    lentils
    soybeans
    green beans
    bananas
    pineapple
    mango
    spinach
    radish
    coriander
    bamboo

    Now I gotta try harissa paste! Have u ever roasted veggies with smoked paprika? I’m currently obsessed thats how I roast potatoes with just smoked paprika, salt and onion powder. Also I’m experimenting with no oil so I don’t even add oil to the potatoes the spices stick with just the moisture of the potatoes themselves its pretty cool!

    Thanks for a great video - I was getting bored with having the same things all the time and this will help so much - especially the dressing ideas! Question - what are your thoughts on oils and fats? Dr Barnard (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine - PCRM on CZcams) advises to limit oils (due to saturated fat) and to not go crazy on fats either. I used to ensure I had healthy fats each day but now I’m a little reluctant to use them after hearing Dr Barnard’s advice. Im keen to hear your thoughts. 😊

    • @AlexandraAndersson
      @AlexandraAndersson  Před rokem +1

      Thanks for your comment! well, I'm not a doctor but from my own research and studies (plant based nutrition at e-cornell) I think that oils don't provide nutritional value besides from extra calories, so when I use them it is only because they enhance flavours when cooking. The fat part, if you don't have health issues like artery issues I wouldn't think that much of fats. Especially when eating fats from whole food sources like avocado, nuts and seeds. I think balance and diversity is key aka don't go overboard with anything really, like eating peanut butter 3 times a day ☺️

    I made the chili last night for dinner. Loved pairing it with the brown rice. We usually do tortilla chips with chili so it was good to mix it up. However, I was in a bit of a bind as I was following the recipe. The ingredients list included vegetable broth, but the video skipped over this step. So then I sat there pondering if it was a typo or a video editing error. 😂 I like to follow recipes to a T and I was left to my own devices on this one.
    I tried googling the recipe to validate myself, but when I found the recipe you published (I assume a long time ago) it was extremely different than this one, although the picture/name was the same.
    I ended up adding extra crushed tomatoes and then added the broth once I realized it was definitely needed.
    Can we get some clarity on this recipe?😂

    • @AlexandraAndersson

    What kind of paste in that first marinade? I can’t catch what she is saying

    Loving your recipes ❤ but I have a question, did you still eat the hummus when pregnant? Thanks

    I put clementines in smoothies but I don’t peel them. There’s so many nutrients in peel.

      Isn't that very bitter in taste? 😅

      Careful if they’re treated post harvest or coated with wax. It’s normally written on the box in which the clementines are if they are. same goes for all citrus.

    Any idea how you can replace the hummus if you have a sesame allergy?

    • @AlexandraAndersson

      Hmm.. either find a hummus without tahini or make a hummus without tahini. Otherwise I'm not sure, I would try the "cashew sour cream" in my app, remove the vinegar and then add the rest of the harissa dressing ingredients before bending :)

    Hi Alexandra!! Merry Christmas, I have noticed that you are adding olive oil to your recipes lately. is it due to your pregnancy and you are going to change it later again? wishing you all the best, kisses from Greece!

      Merry Christmas 💕 It really enhances the flavours and Pontus is a big fan of that haha so I cook with oil sometimes and sometimes not :) Otherwise I eat so little oil so I don't feel that it matter that much

      @@AlexandraAndersson I remember my first girl... As a vegan, ppl were worried about me. It was in 1995, in a village. I must have been the only one ever heard of. But with careful planning, all was well. It just felt like I had to eat all the time though! My daughter is healthier than ever. The back pain was quite awful at the end indeed .....i sympathize. You'll be so so happy holding that baby in your arms, smelling her/him the first time. Oh dear that smell... It's the best smell i ever experienced. Nothing tops that. A healthy child to you both:) Keep us updated, happy news is scarce around here....

    May i ask, what motivated you to go vegan. I am trying to go plant based so i'm watching so many videos discussing the benefits of being vegan or plant based !!

    • @AlexandraAndersson
      @AlexandraAndersson  Před rokem +2

      Health reasons at first, I ate so bad, was depressed and gut health not good. Felt much better after switching, I later went a plant based nutrition course at e-cornell, everything fell into place, haven't looked back since. Now it's also a lot because of ethical reasons though ☺️
