You can spout the lentils and chick peas to increase the nutritional value. After you soak them, strain them in a colander and then rinse twice a day until they get tails. In the summer that should only take 2-3 days. You can also dehydrate the sprouted lentils or chickpeas to preserve if you have too much. You can make a raw hummus out of the sprouted chickpeas, as well, to get an extra meal or two, or to get a nice snack out of them.
The chick peas will sprout? I didn't know that.
@@StephanieCarrollMorningCleansesprouted chickpeas also makes great hummus .
Thank you ❤
Yes sprouting seeds, nuts and grains is SO good for you....
OMG I had an ah-ha moment when watching this video. Usually I'll look for a recipe and then go out and buy the ingredients. No wonder it costs so much when it comes time to pay. Watching you shopping and choosing the most affordable fruits and veg was the ah-ha moment. Start with the produce and then formulate a recipe. Thanks for the wonderful video. I too am a fellow Ontario resident. :)

Ive been eating Raw Vegan for a week now and have definitely went over budget many times...lol...but I'm getting into a flow of fluids in the morning followed by fruit and then a savory meal for dinner and if I'm having a sweet tooth(rare) i make banana ice cream or chia pudding. I wanted to thank you for making this simple and easy to follow it makes me feel good about my upcoming week! looking forward to enjoying more of your videos :)
You're so welcome ! I am going to make more of these also !! 💚💚💚
@@GillianBerry Awesome! Looking forward to it!
Fully raw vegan Christina Changed her way to proteins n powders but she used to do real food only n she had an awesome cherry n a bit of fight a date n nut n salt crust pie, it is so so good!
@@joyceobeys6818 Wow that sounds good ! I ❤️ her recipes! ❣️
@@joyceobeys6818 do you have that recipe?
Fellow RUclipsr Eva Loves Raw makes an excellent faux tuna salad with sunflower seeds. Soak the seeds overnight in water. Next day, blend celery, carrots, and onion. The add the soaked sunflower seeds and blend again. Makes a kind of pate. Blend in dulse or kelp, or nori to get the sea flavor. Maybe even add a little Old Bay seasoning. I make a delicious faux tuna salad sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes on whole grain bread. Can be used on a raw wrap also.
I've been vegan for 15 years and vegetarian for 5 before that. Mostly, the meals are raw and your channel is inspiring. :)
that's amazing. ! congrats on that !! way to be healthy 👏 ❤️💖 you inspire many too I am sure !!!! happy you like the channel Janie !!!
That's awesome. The cost in Aus would easily be $250 for that amount of fruit & veg. Iceberg Lettuce is currently $11. Extortion! Makes it difficult for most.
Totally agree, I have so little choice in Australia where I live nd prices are daylight robbery
a dollar 30 for 5 bell peppers omg. Organic bell peppers are like 3-4 dollars each here
I use the flash food app for large boxes of "ugly" fruits and vegetables. Really makes a difference since fruit is super expensive where I live. My budget is about $30-$40 per week.
That's awesome !! love that app !!! 💚
that's so awesome you do it for that budget too !! 👏 👏 👏
Thanks for the app suggestion
Damn, didn't know you could use soaked lentils in a raw vegan diet, that's a game changer! I have come across sprouted before at Raw Aura. Another cool item I never would have thought is raw sweet potato spiralized in to noodles (learned that one from Mimi Kirk).
Stuffed bell peppers. (Mix some veggies and lintels plus some herbs and spices for the stuffing)
It's good raw or cooked.
Sounds amazing!! Good idea 👍 💜
@@GillianBerry, It's also good with pineapple, mango and coconut milk
It’s 2024 thank you for video I need to change my diet to save my life….. I’m going raw vegan
I absolutely love this! I wish you would of been around years ago. I used to spend $250 a week easy being a Raw vegan. I'm actually getting back after being off it 10 years ago. but I'm only doing 85 percent and then letting myself eat 15 cooked foods. Ill never be as extreme as I used to be but yes eating mostly raw and vegan is the way.
that's awesome you're getting back !! And 85% is amazing !!
yeah i have to do another budget one soon as my financial situation currently needs to be back on that budget 😁🤣
$250 a week ? Damn one reason I couldn’t eat like that. I spend about $300 a month for mostly food bought at the health food store and I live in Hawaii
I love that you show what can be bought, what can be made, and that you can find good deals on raw foods! With a menu like this, I believe supplements, legumes, things like that, are required for a full nutritional value, so I am glad you mentioned them! Eating just the fruits and veggies would not be enough.
And your daughter is so cute!! She did such a great job on this video!
Also- thank you so much for teaching about and how to soak the lentils and chickpeas! 😊💖💖💖💖💖🌱🌱💚💚💚💚
my pleasure!!!!
I just came back from the store and spent $54 and got all organic (not planned, good prices for SF ) for a week. I can't believe how much food I could get for that price. Thank you for your inspiration, shopping list and recipe ideas!
that's incredible!! way to go !!!
Thank you for doing what you do, Gillian! You are such an encouragement and inspiration. I know I speak for many when I say how much your videos are appreciated. Thanks for taking the time! 💕 Much love from Austin, Texas.
thank you so much for the lovely comment!! brightened my spirit! xo
I’ve been vegan almost 2 yrs. I would go thru withdrawal if I tried raw vegan. I may gradually work it into my menu. Great job & so healthy.
2 years that's awesome !!! yeah I get it the thought of 100% is a lot for a lot of people !! 💜💜💜
glad you liked it !!
This is so inspiring, Gillian! I think my food bill has increased a lot since going from WFPB vegan to raw vegan! It's summer here so I've been buying cherries, berries, watermelon and mangoes - it's easy to spend a lot!
I'm going to work on buying less of the pricey things and look for somewhere locally that is a bit less expensive 🤞🤞🤞
I'd love to see you do this while it's winter for you 😉
You and your daughter look so happy and healthy preparing food together 💕💕💕
that's awesome !!!
yeah I have been meaning to do another one of these vids !!
I have been a raw vegan almost five years and never knew these beans could be soaked for 8 hours then eaten as they are! Thank you for all the tips in this amazing video. I can't wait to try the beans, the dressing recipes and attempting to spend $50 a week my next shopping trip. Have a blessed week!❤
Amazing !! 5 years congrats !!!!! 👏 🥳
Yes !! You will love them !!!!!! There is a great video on Markus and Caras channel about which beans can and can not be soaked too I can try link it for you later when I have time !
But def try them this way so good !! 💜💜💥
@@GillianBerry Thank you!😊 Yes, I would appreciate the link, I will definitely watch & take notes.
@@sofhab280 ruclips.net/video/l1-xQ_Ktvws/видео.html
@@sofhab280 there you go !!
for me tho with the lentils - I like to do them as in the video just soaked for 8 hours and they taste so good !! Shane taught me that. So good in salads or on their own !! Let me know
how you like it when you try !!!
This came up as a suggestion in my feed. I really enjoyed the video and definitely feel inspired to up my raw game❤️
Yay so happy to hear 🎉 💚
I am planning on making more of these this fall 🍁 So glad you feel inspired .)
Really well done and straight to the point. You just got a new subscriber 🤙
🙌 so glad you liked it !
39!?😃 You look amazing and Mae is such a cutie pie. Thanks for all the ideas and I'm definitely trying the lentils and chickpeas. New subbie here ✋ Blessings to you and yours 💕💕
You're so welcome !! ❤️❤️❤️
Happy to have you here - welcome to the channel !!
You'll love the soaked lentils !!
where I live I forage for citrus, dates, peppercorns, dandelions, etc. What I can't get, I will trade. I actually need to pick the orange tree, as months later the stuff's still there.
I forgot to say - I also get leftovers from other people around me - if someone posts that they bought too much, I'll take it from them. It's a kind of foraging, just a human-eased version.
Definitely going to try the raw food vegan experience. Two stable meals and fruit, good easy and affordable approach! Well done! 👧🦋
This amount of food in Australia would cost probably three times this !!!
same with most areas of Toronto here too ....I was just able to find some good deals and markets !
Thanks for the tip on the soaked lentils. I’ll try them!
you're very welcome !!! yes those are a game changer and so cheap !!
Your daughter is a natural! Thank you for all of the ideas and for the salad dressing recipe- it sounds delicious!
You are so welcome!
great info... good buys...
I expected some super boring ''usual'' foods for such price, yet you managed to make it very versitille, healthy & delicious! Thumbz up ;)
I keep coming back to this video. What a great ressource!
🙏🙏🙏💙💙
Great video, thank you!❤️
This is so helpful. I've been high raw vegan for almost a month now and struggle to get my budget under control. Thanks for this video!
my pleasure !
Gillian thank you so much for making this video. My husband and I have been vegans for 26 days now. A few days ago I saw your interview with Jacqui Waters and I was so inspired to try raw vegan. My husband being vegan is still kind of blowing my mind. He is a big guy who loved steak (huge steaks mind you). But we both watched What the Health and then The Game Changers and it just clicked for us. All in. But I'm having some biome issues which are a lifetime thing really. I was hopeful that being a vegan would help. I understand what Jacqui was saying about this being a long road of deconstruction first and I'm ready for that. I'm almost 62 so I've been constructing this crooked house for a loooong time. =) I'm cool with taking it down first to rebuild. So now, I'm thinking of going raw vegan, at least for most of the day. For the past few weeks I was kind of overwhelmed by all the choices and recipes and going crosseyed trying to build a meal plan. And spending waaaay too much on all the meals I wanted to try! So finding your video, I'm literally saying out loud, "Oh thank God. What a great idea!" Two staple meals! So much easier. I plan to watch everything you ever recorded because I have a lot to learn. Thank you so much for your videos. I really appreciate the time and effort you put in to produce the excellence you create. Very grateful! Oh also I'm on IG @tizzlovesrowdy doing a new recipe a day and today I'll be mentioning this video. I'm calling this year's 100dayproject "an accidental comedy" because man. SO many mistakes. Learning experiences. XD ♥
Hi Niki !! I love this comment !! You are amazing !! I am so happy this channel could be of inspiration!! That's why I do it !!
Yes it can take time ! Hang in there !!!!!! You're taking control !!! 🙌
let me know how it goes as you progress !!!!
And I'm making another budget video asap also !!!!
@@GillianBerry I will definitely stay in touch. I have a lot to learn. Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words. =) ♥.
@@GillianBerry I'm so excited! I can't wait to see it. Yay! Thank you! ♥.
Yes.. going raw or mostly raw will definitely help you biome! I recommend gradually adding in more raw ... and check out her interview with Joan Osborne.
Had no idea about soaking lentils! Thanks so much for that tip. Will be soaking some tonight to use in my work lunch salad tomorrow.
No problem !! You'll love them !!!
Me too..which ones cannot be soaked and cooked only?
@@erichardson8811 Kidney beans for sure. They must be thoroughly cooked, or you'll poison yourself.
Super helpful, thanks so much! I didn't know we could eat the lentils right after the 8 hour soak. I thought we had to wait for the little sprouts 😆😁 good news to me! I'm about to buy these same things maybe except for the peachers because they aren't in season. Thanks!
amazing !!!! yes they're so good !!
and yes peaches out of season now 😁
What wonderful tips & cute girl. This year's prices are much higher especially in Interior Alaska but these recipes will definitely help🙂
Awesome video! The deals you got were amazing!
🙏🙏🙏🙌🙌🥭🥭🥭
Thank you so much for this. I started raw vegan last week. These tips and recipes are great! Your daughter is so cute!
you're so welcome!! 💜💜💜 and thanks Mae is the best 🌸🌸🌸🌸
Great info ! Thanks ♥️
You're very welcome!
Yes!!!! needed this💖
💖
Thank you for this inspiring video, if you keep rinsing and draining your lentils and chickpeas once or twice a day for 2 to 3 days, they will sprout and become even more delicious and nutritious!🌱😋💕
absolutely!! I still have to try that !! 💖💖
This is very, very helpful! Thank you!
You're so welcome !!
thank you well done🌻
Fantastic video!! Luv the lentil tip!!
Glad it was helpful!
Raw vegan salads are AMAZING. 😍

💟💟💟
Wow I’m completely going to try soaking lentils since so simple Thanku
You'll love them !! So simple and so good !
Love this! What kind of spiralizer do you use?

the store is linked in my recent vids but ya it's oxo too if you just search that
You look so beautiful in that cute sun dress! Aww! 😊💖💖💖 Thank you so much for this video! It really helps with ideas!

Thank you for showing us how you use the produce! Most people don't show that part
my pleasure!! will create another budget one sometime !
Thank you 💛💛💛
Wow. This is literally my first week of looking into this lifestyle for cleansing purposes. I started with your friend Shane Sterling and have found this great video. I’m a mom of 6 in Northwestern North Dakota. Budgets are critical. I was a little skeptical of what the finished products would be… 😆 but these look really, really good!
they were so good!!!!:)))
Great information. Thank you for sharing.
Your daughter is so cute. By having her there helping. She may start liking some raw food. Its good for her.
Beans were what's stopping me from going raw. So glad I watched this.
Thank you so much for this Clip. I am a vegetarian and considering going raw vegan %100 instead of %40. I had no idea we could eat non sprouted pulses. I had the soaked chick peas today. So good! I had no idea how to shop and combine for the week. Thanks so much for your help!
anytime ,)
Bloor Fruit Market! When I was living in the Annex I would shop there all the time. Great place for organic produce.
no way that's awesome Jordan !!
ya a great market forsure ❤️❤️
Enjoyed this
:)
Ive been on raw vegan diet for a few weeks and i noticed im actually hungry less than when i was eating a typical American diet. I get hungry around dinner time and thats it for the day.
that's great !
Nice!! I have found that my vegan diet is way cheaper than our previous meat, dairy and seafood diet unless I splurge on tropical fruits
amazing
Where do you put your lentils and chick peas when they are expanding?where do you store them when they are done?And how long do they last?
Really nice video. You and your family radiate health
🙏🙏❤️❤️
This was fantastic.. the music in the background agitated my nervous system.. other than that .. way to go… keep ‘‘em coming , new to this lifestyle , your tips were amazing🥰⭕️❌
yeah i have cut music from all my videos now !! for the meantime !!! i'd rather them with none !! so sorry it bothered you they were bothering me too the music edits (i don't know how to edit !!) so i had my guy stop !!
welcome to the channel tho !! let me know what you'd like to see more of ❤️❤️❤️✌️✌️
Thank you for sharing this. I also feel much better eating light at the first part of the day. I usually always drink two smoothies and that lasts me for hours. God bless you!
amazing !!
God bless You !!
thank you for this video!
you're welcome !! I'm going to do another one sometime !!
Thanks a lot for the video!! I wondered hiw much time it takes you to eat the huge salad as i need easily three quarters to chew it all... :) :)
I love your outfit and hair!!!
ty!!! got the dress at a random shop in toronto near the store i was produce shopping in!!!
I didn't know it was possible to eat lentils and chickpeas this way😄 that's amazing❤
Maybe I missed it, but how long are the sprouted lentils & chickpeas good for? And where did you store them?
Awesome video! I didn't know, you could just soak lentils or chickpeas (without sprouting them) and then eat them right away ^^ New lesson learned XD Your daughter May is supercute!
Im going to try the soaked lentils!
they are great!
Free flowers with the groceries? That is touching ❤
yeah that was nice they threw those in ! people are so nice in Toronto ❤️❤️😁
I love that basket I need me one for grocery shopping 🫶🍓🍒🍎🍞🥦🥒
these baskets are the best. !! i got them at whole foods they're all hand made and they are worth it they last a couple i have i purchased like 7 or 8 years ago !
New to your channel and Vegan not completely raw but trying this was so helpful can't wait to make the lemon avocado salad dressing
Im so happy it helped !! 😁😁😁😁
🥰 thanks a lot!! I tried and is delicious 😋
yay so happy to hear!!! so many different recipes to make in the blender for zucchini!! my fav lately is a tomato one: vine tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, sun dried tomatoes, a little basil, little oregano, salt, pepper, little serrano pepper!! so good!!!!!!
Great video thank you

I love this, awesome video
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Jillian, I’ve been raw vegan for a week now, with this diet do you suggest I don’t eat starch or carbs?
Loved this omg 😍😍😍
🙏💙💙💙💙💙
SAME
Raw Vegan is the way to go!
Yes ! 🙌
Great tips, people can do this lifestyle on a budget, if they really want 😀
🙌🙌🙌
Great video Gillian ,your daughter is adorable💕👍
Thank you ! 💜💜💜
What was the next item you added to the the pesto recipe after the avocado? It looks like some type of greens. Thanks
OhmyGosh did you say 39th birthday? Had to put on the captions to make sure I got that right🤣 You look too young!!! Your daughter is too cute! Love what you're doing for the RV community. New subbie🙏🏿
thank you so much !!! welcome to the channel !!!
has been a year now I turn 40 on aug 23!!
xoxoxooxoxoz
Hiya lovely, please make a raw hummus recipe and also could you do a chickpea sprouted recipe?? (I obvs love chickpeas aha)
This video is very important and informative 👍🏽
💙💙💙💙
I love this 🙌🙌💕
love you Annie!! xoxo
We need more people like you!
thank you ! 💙
I learnt so many about going raw vegan!! Thanks
You're so very welcome !
Cannot wait to try the lentils and chickpeas.
let me know what you think!
I enjoyed this video...but happy to see it was a year ago as prices here are insane....you would not get that for 60 bucks here in Ontario Canada. Those tomatoes would be at least 7 dollars here....prices are crazy. I would be interested to you make the veggie pasta some time. Blessings from the great white north!!
I love this video, the only thing that I have a question about is the lentils and the chickpeas. I read online many sources say online They are toxic if you eat them raw.
We are creatures of habit and it is easier to stick to a familiar staple dish rather than creating something new all the time (which is for most of us impossible indeed). So, these are great ideas Gillian! And amazing content! Love your work! ❤️
🧡🧡🧡🧡
@@GillianBerry oh by the way, I believe you can also soak and eat black rice :) no cooking required:) Not sure if you tried.
@@vegan.enlightenment wow interesting!! I think I have heard that before !!
@@GillianBerry some variation and new textures :)
Gillian, have you tried soaking black wild rice? And also have you noticed when you eat the soaked beans any gas?
Great video, Gillian! I just got back from shopping for a raw diet here in Tokyo to have spent over $50 just for 1 or 2 days - painful to see the difference in prices but happy to see you and others make the most of more affordable prices.
Hi Duncan !! That's too bad !! I get it thought ! It's very easy to spend a lot on the diet. At least you're able to - & it's worth it ! 💜
Feel for you. Tokyo is extremely expensive.
Wow.. those are great prices even if USD! I lived near Washington DC in the States, and never got mangoes, avocados, or many of those things even near those prices. I live in Peru now, and some of those prices are comparable to around here. I will try the lentils!
yeah the prices are great at certain spots here in Toronto !! You really have to look around for the best shops ! for me the little
random markets on the city streets are the cheapest !!
Hey Gillian,
1/ what do you decide to buy organic and what not? ...
2/Do you pay attention on avoiding GMO products?
3/ We're almost 100% raw for years now ... but we struggle with proteins and yes we eat soaked lentils.
And do you know how your body can absorb it more easily
How do you solve this protein-issue without using protein powders yourself?
4/You are talking about supplements? Which and why?
*
5/ About your recipe preparations also a question as we avoid garlic and onion ... in this pesto, without the garlic it's tasty still. Do you have an idea for something to replace it?
Thanks
Thank you for this, Gillian ! I learned a lot and needed this.
Anytime ♥️ So glad.
