What I *actually* eat in a week! ( vegan + intuitive + simple recipes )

Hey friends and welcome! 🌞 Sometimes life throws you a curve ball and sometimes life is great, how we feel can affect our hunger and that is completely normal. Sometimes we just have to give ourselves a break, respect how we feel and give ourselves grace. If your mental health constantly effects your hunger levels, I urge you to seek help.

A reminder that what I eat shouldn't be exactly what you eat, every body is different and needs different types of fuel. I simply enjoy giving you meal inspiration and like to show you the variety of foods and meals you can have! Its important you enjoy what you eat and it makes you feel happy, healthy and nourished!

Always gonna appreciate how real and open you are with us. Not only when you’re sad but also when u just joked abt farting🤣 your videos feel like therapy for de-stressing, thanks Julia!

[sugarbrown]

Your aura is so addictive! For some reason your videos heal me somehow. You’ll pass this storm ⛈ And it’s okay to have rough days, especially when it’s that time of the month. Whatever it is, I’m sure it’ll all work out on its own. You’ll be fine dear, we’re rooting for you! 💐 hang in there 🎈

[elzasfeir]

Your videos are the only food-related ones I watch consistently. I appreciate being able to see a Canadian youtuber doing these because I can actually get the same products.

[vanamarkarian]

[roseyprice]

Ive been watching for a while and absolutely love your videos! You have such an amazing energy and I hope whatever you are going through atm will get better! Sending all my love💛

[carlotacarbonell]

Hi Julia! I know this is an old video but I just discovered your channel and I’m obsessed with it and have been binge watching it all day 🤭🤫 and I just wanted to let you know, in case you don’t know this already, that if you freeze your tofu (any kind but works best with firm or extra firm), once it de freezes it will have a much stronger consistency so you can really squeeze all the water and you can make super crispy, like really CRISPY!!! Try this if you have never done it before! I promise you’ll never go back to fresh tofu! ;)
Anyways, I’m gonna continue watching your videos now! Bye!!!! 😅

[jnicholson]

When you're slicing grapes, cherry tomatoes etc, put a dozen or so between two round plastic lids & then slice between them. You can cut a dozen or more at a time & it's so much easier & faster

[margaridarodrigues]

hii julia I watch your videos whenever I’m sad or not feeling my best and you make my day so much better.
I hope everything your going through rn works out and I wish all the best <33
