I think you should do after the cookbook. What do you continue to make from the cookbook and which cookbook has every single recipe being excellent--think in terms of you could only invest in 1 cookbook which one gives the most bang for or your buck.

Great video. Very informative, especially for those new to or considering a WFPB lifestyle. The initial stocking of my pantry with items I didn’t use before was the most expensive. I use a lot more spices, vinegars, dates, nuts, seeds, etc
now. Honestly, Walmart has come a long way. I’m able to find most of what I need there, organic and many specialty items. My Walmart (not all do) even has Date Lady date syrup for less than what it is online and no shipping. I drive 40 miles to Trader Joe’s/Sprouts and Costco about once a month, to fill in.
Sorry for the lengthy comment, I’m just so excited about this lifestyle and hope more people come on board. Thanks again!

When I went completely plant based my grocery budget for the month went from $400 to $250.00. I am single and usually eat leftovers from the night before for lunch. I almost always make enough for several meals and freeze them in portion size bags. I also buy for the month at 1 trip then I can buy larger quantities which almost always cost less. Fresh veggies from my local farm are a weekly purchase. This month I plan to have around $40
00 left over

Greetings from Atlanta GA, USA. My best tip is to order groceries for pick up. I do my shopping after a meal with a snack so I don't impulse buy. It costs the same as going in and I save time.

[lindseycole]

I would love for you to try out the recipes from pick up limes.

[bonnij]

Great info and recipes. Keep keeping it real. Love that you’re not stuffy and pretentious. Your family is like our families.

Thanks for the great video 😊❤. I love this channel, for recipe inspiration and the positive energy and vibes!

Tennessee Polish auntie's favorite leftovers: chop up leftover bits and bobs, mix them with some spices and chickpea flour (and a little rice flour for crispness if you have it). Add a little liquid as needed to form patties, or more for pancake batter and fry them up. Serve with gravy, chutney, or sauce of choice. A good save for recipe fails.

Chiming in from Scottsdale, AZ: Another winner! Subscribed! My hack: big dinner batch for lunch the next day.

[lindabonomi]

New sub...yes, when you think about the high cost of meat, cheeses, dairy, eggs...MUCH cheaper to go Buying in season is crucial...

Firstly, found your channel recently - always looking for new really easy plant based cooking videos! Been watching quite a few this past week. Secondly, thank you so much for this video!!! LOVE all the tips, Jeremy! I plan to keep this particular video handy to re-watch when I need to. Oh, I'm watching from Indiana, PA. I'm an empty-nester; my son moved out a few years & has his own family (he lives near Pittsburgh, over an hour away, so I don't get to see him much. As a senior who lives alone, I find it challenging to actually cook healthy for myself - lack of motivation, NOT laziness! Also, LOVE you & your family & all your interactions!!!!

I had 7 ounces of white beans into a giant, 32 ounce smoothie with 3 ounces of kale, blueberries, strawberries, orange, and it turns into a meal with a ton of nutrition

[lesleyrawlings]

That was so helpful..Thankyou very much ..Lesley from East coast England ..

[bobhubb]

Watching from the Detroit Michigan area. Recently retired and learning to cook vegan. Love your funny and informative videos! Your family gives you feedback that is real and reminds me of the responses I get from my family!

Fantastic content, so clear, concise and helpful! I just got my first instant Pot and so far made only soy yogurt (1 success and 1 failure). I just ordered a Euro Cuisine yogurt strainer to create a greek yogurt consistency. I am determined to get it right! I would love to see a video of demonstrations of how you make dried beans and various grains in the IP. I know there is a lot on YouTube, but I would love to see it in one of your videos because I like how you explain things. Thank you!

[debbiedowns]

Just found your channel, I have to admit I've been binge watching! Have you cooked from Party in Your Plants yet by Talia Pollock? I'd love to see you choose that book. A book with a name as fun as PB with J, haha. Love how real you all are. Great job!

[envymesalon]

Hello from Joplin Missouri! I love watching your videos. Your family is so charming. I am gluten free like your wife so seeing how you modify recipes to make them gluten free is very helpful.
I have always been very bad at meal planning, but recently I have been copying you by picking a cookbook and cooking from it for a week. This makes it like a game. So, thank you!!!
Someone already said this, but having your groceries delivered/pick-up saves me so much money! Even with delivery fees, I would have spent much more if I went into the store (and bought unhealthy splurges).

[belindatraviss]

Loved, loved, loved this reel, please write a book, get sponsorship from everyone. Love your channel, and your website, just an ordinary bloke ( extraordinary of course!, obviously) with teens to feed, not a lean tanned pouting lady, yawn, certainly not me. Especially as your family like desserts which some channels see as satanic. Keep them coming, Loads of love from the Uk x

[amandagloverart]

Aldi is a great store for cheap vegan foods. I can get a block of tofu for 1.50 US. Bananas were 38 cents today. Beans under a dollar...etc.

[taniaallan]

We are practically neighbours 😊 hello from London ON 😊😊 great channel…been watching it a lot with my 10 year old son. He finds your videos really fun and interesting and wants to try things he sees you make so that’s a win!
