I'm following you as of recent and I'm really excited for your recipes to help me with the new healthy weightless journey I'm on. If you have any good suggestions for weighloss meals, I would love the help
Going off the prices of google results local to my area, this salad made with these types of convenient, prepackaged ingredients (excluding the dressing) comes out to approximately $8.45 USD per portion. So if you live in Perth, Western Australia where I am from, expect it to cost you around $12.85 AUD per similiar portion, excluding the dressing.
I love that you include healthy fats in your recipes, so many people here "fat" and instantly think "bad" but oh my gosh once I started eating healthy fats, it's life changing, you feel more free when cooking and preparing meals too
Right? Prepackaged shaved/sliced turkey is hella expensive. Converted to USD, it's $4.60 for a pack that contains 170g of shaved deli turkey. I'm gonna call half of that the portion for the salad, so $2.30. Half a little bag of those precooked beets is, at cheapest, $1.30 USD. Half an avocado could be anywhere between $0.60 and $1.65 USD. Half a bag of mixed chopped lettuce is roughly $1.30. Eyeballing the portion of cheese, that's probably around $0.65. (50g of the cheapest feta or 25g of mid-range one). Half a pomegranate ~$2.15. I couldn't find an online listing for roasted pumpkin pepitas sold locally, so I went with unroasted pumpkin pepitas. Cheapest option is $0.13 a Tbsp (15g) I dunno if I missed anything aside from the dressing which I'll exclude because I'm kinda over this now lol. So that puts the salad minus the dressing at around $8.43 USD (going by Perth, Australia prices) and it could even cost a few dollars more (price of avo fluctuates a lot here).
Lettuce .40 Avo .60 Beet .50 (fresh steamed sliced) Lunchmeat/canned chickpeas .25-50 Pepitas .00 (i dry roast my own after pumpkin carving every year the last for months) Oil, vinegar, mustard 0.30 Cheese 0.20 ($1.90 for a tub of feta with 10-12 servings) =2.50 A lot of the cost is reduced with good shopping saavy, buying in bulk, reducing waste, and shopping at farmers markets. There's a knack to it, but I've lived all across the midwest, and now the east coast, and have successful cooked on a budget the entire time. If it's more than $2.50/ serving it's a special occasion.
@@thorneto2742 god bless I’m so tired of seeing food like this and 100% of the comments talking about how fire it looks. Bitch what it’s a salad with ripped up lunch meat, steamed beats, and vegan feta??? To me that’s an insane meal
@@Drizella9nah you just have the palate of a 9 year old lmao. Do yall just not eat veggies? Lettuce beets feta and turkey? Those are basic ass things. Sorry we don’t wanna eat Dino nuggets and chocolate milk
She has almost 30k sbs here on YT , I’m sure she’s making at least enough to cover the salad or has a job on a side! And most of this salad ingredients are in someone’s fridge. Like the bagged salad to start with! :)
This might be weird to some people lol but what i personally do to throw a little twist on beets is this - cut them into bite sized cubes. add them to a pot of boiling water and boil till you can stick a fork through them (or to your likeness of softness) after that i drain them. Put the pot back on the stovetop and add in a good amount of butter...brown the butter and add the beets back in the pot. Toss them a bit to cost with the browned butter and add some salt to taste. a bit of pepper as well if you like...
If you're so busy that you don't have time to prepare veggies from scratch does that make you lazy or does it just mean you have other obligations and priorities?
@@d.g.9209 You need to chop and wash things like lettuce if you buy it normal and for some people like my wife (she’s disabled) that’s too difficult and time consuming so the bag is much easier for us.
I was on my last leg today you really save the day I don’t know what I would have done without this unsolicited information also there are only two genders
Simplicity! Love it🔥❤️

THIS is the best salad in LA
I made it. So good 🥰
Girl I love you!!! You should be on food network!!! Love you from Santa cruz California!!!
Beets are also good for your blood pressure and for your blood- like if you're anemic or have POTs.
Your channel is SO GREAT!
Any recipes/tips for a vegetarian with under active thyroid issues?
I don't know why but her squeezing the avocado set my emotions 🥺 it's the Mexican in me, I suppose.
As a non Mexican it frustrates me too. Respect the Avocado
Loving your recipes and seeing your face on RUclips, you've reinspired me and my sister to get back on track! Thank you so so much 💗
Love your videos
Honestly love the Trader Joe’s Vegan Feta so much more than regular feta
It is not a feta cheese if is not made of sheep or goat milk in Greece. So Trader's Joe can not call it feta cheese
@@weronicaswonder8156 they kind of can because when vegan is in front of a noun, it’s means fake. So vegan feta = fake feta .
@@weronicaswonder8156that’s why it’s called VEGAN FETA. It’s fake feta duh
We literally eat the exact same way lol
Ohhhhh, I love this, my style
I have to get to Trader Joe's (45 mins)
+ take a little longer to find the vegan feta, the butter lettuce. GOOD JOB!!
I can’t wait to try this dressing! It’s hard to find good tasting dairy free dressings.
I buy pre-cooked shredded chicken and it’s such a life saver for lazy salads! Lol
Wish I could eat this healthy but I love soul food so much
Where’s that fuzzy hoodie from?
Careful w sunflower seeds tho. Too much Vitamin E makes you hair fall out 💯 FACT.. it happened to me and my mom.
Nice
Chicken with Vegan feta. I’ve seen it all.
Girl all those ingredients are super expensive!! I know you can use more of them extra times but holy Jesus.

Lettuce .40

Lunchmeat/canned chickpeas .25-50
Pepitas .00 (i dry roast my own after pumpkin carving every year the last for months)
Oil, vinegar, mustard 0.30

=2.50

This is a salad I would eat
That looks good af not gonna lie lol
❤️
YUMMY
I freaking love Trader Joe’s bro. They have the best stuff
This just made me hate salads and I already hate salads
Congratulations on your future diabetes
This channel takes all the foods I'm disgusted by and makes dishes out of them. Its like watching a horror movie for me lmao

Do a video on all your healthy dressings PLEASE PLEASE EASE PLEASE
More of these
okay yum going to make this exact thing, thank u queen
Avocados are $3 each in my area 😮
.50 in Cali @ Winco
I know that salad gotta be $40 if u shopping at Trader Joe's lol 😂😂
That’s ok, most of her bougie ingredients are from her moms fridge
Oh no lol 😂😂😆😂
@@Puglover130 WHAT 💀
this girl looks like 26. there's no way she lives with her mom and isn't actually buying these groceries...
She has almost 30k sbs here on YT , I’m sure she’s making at least enough to cover the salad or has a job on a side! And most of this salad ingredients are in someone’s fridge. Like the bagged salad to start with! :)
Trader Joe’s lowkey cheap
Who is this bomb ass Queen 😍♥️🙌🏾
A salad rich white girls can afford lmao next
Ahhh I love beeets❤
An avo a day keeps the dr away
Turkey and *vegan* feta. Makes sense.
🥴🙄
Some people can’t do dairy so vegan ingredients can be good for lactose intolerants.
girl you know lactose intolerance exists right 💀 or maybe vegan feta flavor is better than regular feta😱
Honey Dijon has dairy and animal fat in it, so it’s not vegan just so you know!
No the only ingredient is mustard. Theres no dairy or honey in it
How much does Trader Joe's pay you?
What is the salad dressing mix again?
Olive oil, lemon, maple syrup and Dijon mustard
@@wolfbane155 🐐 thank you!!!
Beets taste and smell like earth
THYROID
Any other veggie similar to beets ? I hate them with a passion🤣
Girl the bad lip filter now pleas stop
Aka we can see them skipping! You aren’t fooling anyone
Avocado is expensive here. 😖
What do beets taste like?
Earthy, sweet deliciousness with a firm but yielding bite…sounds good right?
Sweet dirt.
You lost me at beets lol
Right 🤢 lol
Why vegan feta if you are eating turkey?
I’m not vegan! I just really like it and feel good with it
a lot of people eat vegan products but aren't vegan and it's a good thing that's why they are making a lot more vegan products now
Some people are lactose intolerant but can eat meat.
My nanny use to can beets for my dad, i cant stand em.. blah!
You eat the whole pomegranate seeds? Why
? Its just a seed? Like watermelon seeds or grape seeds, even sunflower seeds. People eat them all the time.
I eat the whole thing too. It’s safe to eat the seeds
It's hard
are you seeding the little individual pomegranate bits when you eat it? that’d be so intensive
That's how you eat pomegranate
This is a $15 salad lolol
definitely not haha. maybe all the ingredients equal that but you can get like 4 servings
The dead animal body was unnecessary
So are you tho
“I have an avocado a day” oh so you’re RICHHHHHHH
You ARE SO FINE 💚🤤
Is there anyway to NOT make beets idk NOT taste like DIRT that's been washed with shi&? because if that's possible I'd eat this 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Beets are nasty
Where did you study to get your cerifications?
You eat so heathy I bet you taste sweet 😊
What? Haha
This salad looks nasty AF
Jst avoid little plastic sister
That looks like a mess!🤢🤢
Everything out of plastic packaging..
Most people don't have a choice.
Is the US the only place on earth that sells precut veggies in bags??? LIKE?? That is so lazy and wasteful jeez...
How is it wasteful? It is great for the consumer to buy what they need instead of a whole piece then the leftover that you didn't need go bad
If you're so busy that you don't have time to prepare veggies from scratch does that make you lazy or does it just mean you have other obligations and priorities?
It's a vegetable. What do you mean "from scratch"? You have to just cut it. Also, it's wasteful because it comes in a a plastic bag/wrap...
@@d.g.9209 You need to chop and wash things like lettuce if you buy it normal and for some people like my wife (she’s disabled) that’s too difficult and time consuming so the bag is much easier for us.
Ew that's vegan with the vigan cheese ewww!!!! Hell no and it looks so untasty
Why did you feel that this comment was necessary to make
@@_.-._.-. cause they are low lives
Gross
gei, not vegan, you bad, errbody bad, well most
She never said she was vegan. She literally used turkey in the salad. She just uses vegan feta because she likes it.
She doesn't really like that, just doing it for youtube
I was on my last leg today you really save the day I don’t know what I would have done without this unsolicited information also there are only two genders
Your just like every other channel
