With alllll the drama that’s going around in the beauty community with several people, it’s so nice to come to your channel and know it’s a peaceful place to come. I’m sure I’ve said this before but it’s true. Thank you for all your creative content and hard work. Thank you for not always trying to sell us something 🙈. Thank you for being YOU. 😘❤️🎉👍🏼
I’ve quit watching makeup videos tbh . It saved me money too , I stopped wanting to buy those makeup palettes (that I bought because I thought it would look good on me). I’m into holistic/gardening stuff now . 😭
I feel like this is one of the most positive channels I watch. Your content is great, the subscribers are very positive and good to each other. This is how it's suppose to be!
I'm soooo thankful for my subscribers.. I don't have as many as others, and my videos don't get as many views, but I'm beyond thankful for the wonderful group of people who watch my channel and leave feedback. 99% of everyone who comments is so considerate and kind, and I'm so thankful for that!!
Hey guys!! Ok, let me be honest.. I've been a bit hesitant to share this video. It's always a little nerve wracking to share these types of videos on the internet. I'm not a doctor, and this channel is purely a sharing blog/vlog channel where I share what I'm up to, and what I'm doing in my home.. It's not meant to be telling anyone how they should do it, but just sharing a bit from our home.. I try to feed my kids what I feel is healthy and balanced, but honestly, a chill home is the most important thing for me, and I want my kids to make healthy choices but also enjoy their life and eat smart. I'm down for some fast food on occasion, some junk food here and there, but I'm just doing my best like any other mama to provide them with lots of options for balanced nutrition.. I do give my children a multi vitamin daily as well. Here are just a few ides that we like around here.. Hope you enjoy!
You’re my favourite you tuber! Your editing and video skills are just the best. It’s so much nicer to watch a video with someone showing what they’re talking about, instead of someone just talking into the camera!!!!
Everytime you upload a video I just get really excited. Absolutely love your content. Could you upload a video on your like general full day routine( like healthy routine ideas). Among all your videos my favourite kind are the diy spa and pamper videos. Would love for you to make more of them. You’re amazing just keep glowing girll. Love ya😘
Love this! I have 5 younger siblings who I take care of a lot of the time, so I’m left with making them their meals and all that. This all is literally what I’ve fed them for forever! Unlike my older sister and mom who prefer to do quicker meals, less work, easy throw in the oven stuff, I love love love making “platters”! I'm a huge health nerd, so I don't ever feel okay with feeding them something that I myself will not eat. Unless it's cheese, because they love cheese :) But I love these meal planning videos! I'm so so inspired!
Thank you for posting this! We have a very similar meal plan, and we shop at Trader Joes. I try my best to feed our children a healthy balanced diet and like you also drive thru fast food occasionally and allow treats. These are great ideas that don't involve intricate meals, and cooking a ton. Simple is easiest for me and I find our kids enjoy simple too. Thanks for the ideas! I buy very similar things as well but now I've got a few new ideas on combinations.
Even as an adult one of my favourite dinners is just a platter of fruits and vegetables sometimes with meat, crackers and dip, pickled vegetables, etc. I love raw veggies!
Hey Rachel, What a great video!!! For us adult kids too. My daughter has recently gone vegetarian and these options for lunch are perfect. Thanks for all that you do. Have a great day!! Robyn
cooking zucchini and putting spaghetti sauce on it is a good alternative to regular spaghetti with noodles, I sometimes make that for lunch, you can add meat to it or carrots and other vegetables and it's really, really good.
Thank you for your sharing. .. Yes i am mouslim, and you inspired me so well to be better in beauty,house-cleaning, and now a kid meals... Your channel such like a good place to me learn new things everytime i need... Love from Malaysia! 😍
You upload more often ......good job!.....by the way you re content is great...i just waned to tell you that i appreciate the fact that you post more often....keep up the good work!
It’s amazing your boys eat so healthy, all I ever hear is kids rejecting anything that doesn’t come from a box or has cheese melted all over it. Very nice to see this and fun little meal ideas!
She really care for her children. but this is the opposite of balanced diet Very low fat can will lower growth hormone like testosterone. She literally have close to zero protein
I loved all the meals. Please keep the videos coming I’d love to see more kid related. I often struggle with what I should feed them so this gives me great ideas.
I found this really helpful! It can be hard to switch it up and keep it healthy at the same time. I know my kids get bored with their meals and this gave me some new ideas 😊
I don't have any kids (yet), but I feel like most of these are really good options for myself as a college student. I am in school at odd hours and these would make great snacks or mini meals and also get me to eat a lot better :)
That’s cute making platters for kids. I do the same but my son calls them free samples lol cause I cut the food small and it reminds him of free samples at Costco or Walmart 😊
OMG these ideas r just great in general...I’m always trying to think what I can make easy and fast for myself...love the platter idea! Now I have some new ideas...thx😋
love this!! thank you because i needed this since my son started school, we eat the same exact way so this makes it so easy for me with these quick ideas :) P.S my son literally watches every video of yours with me, i believe it may be your voice and loves you food videos. His name is Isaiah & hes 5.
Hi Rachel thanks for the lovely video! :) you mentioned your son playing outside most of the day, can you make a video on what kids can do in the garden that's not fully hands on for the parent? Sometimes it can be. But more practical play outside is essential also :) thank youu x
Great video I have 4 kids and it’s hard trying to find different foods for them to eat I also have a son named Isaiah he’s 1 and he will also eat anything we give him😆
This kinda makes me laugh because my daughter has Cystic Fibrosis and needs a high fat, high salt diet... like ridiculously high. So for me, I spend an hour in the grocery store asking "Is this high enough in fat? What can I add to make this more fatty? Can I add salt?" While most parents are worried about sodium levels and wether something is healthy for lunch, I'm like "Okay two pieces of high fibre white bread slathered with salted butter and then peanut butter that I've mixed a bit of salt into, whole milk with a little cream mixed in, packaged lunch meat and two cheese slices, yogurt with salt in it and maybe a couple strawberries... you know... cause healthy."
Damn. A bit late to comment, but that sounds like it would be hard to manage all the time while also getting your daughter the nutrients she still needs to go plus all the fat/salt. Hope you're both doing well and she's as happy and healthy as she can be!
I’m not married but i do take care of my nieces and nephews. They stay with me most of the time , so these ideas are good . But do tell me how did you manage to make them eat veggies and fruit in a single place . Kids here are always trying to skip meals as much as they . I had to feed them by my hand. Do make a video on it . Much love from Pakistan.
For The very young ones a high chair or booster chair works, anything with straps. Try to create a quiet and conducive environment for eating. I have to young boys and I too sit to feed them for every meal. But I’m slowly trying to get them to eat by themselves. Also, our food (I’m Indian) tends to be messy for toddlers to eat, with curry and rice etc. so naturally I opted to feed them by hand. Now I’m trying to make food they can pick up and eat on their own. Hope I make sense
Totally am requesting the kid meal ideas. I personally always thought trader Joe's was a bit uppity and pricy but have started shopping there because it isn't any of those things. Shopping at Costco actually caused me to throw out a lot of food too. There are only three of us lol. My daughter as a baby ate everything. Now at an old 4yr old hates almost anything that is green. We do well with carrots and cauliflower, but anything green is tough.
Love Love Love your ideas --- more please... especially for lunch & dinner. My boys are VERY picky - one will not eat a veggie! I try to hid them in 'something' but he tends to not like it. It's so stressful ... lol
Great video! I needed these ideas because 1 have a 1 year old that I'm trying to teach good eating habits and a 9 year old who is super picky but loves fruit and pb&j.😍
You're so awesome and seem like such a great mom! Everything looks so good! I make those "platters" too for my kids often haha its the best and always a winner! Thanks for some inspo! xo
this is nice, I wish when i was growing up my lunches were like this haha, it was always school lunch or something store bought. Still good ideas for lunches as a college student though lol
THANK YOU for not feeding your kids loads of meat and dairy! It’s high time people realized that all that stuff isn’t good for us or our kids for healthy growth 👍🏼
Just a tip from your friendly HealthWealth Nutritionist here! I notice some of these packaged foods have calcium carbonate. This is mined and quarried from chalk or marble and other and basically cannot be absorbed. It settles in your bones causing arthritis pain and other joint issues, so read ingredients and try to avoid this! Happy snacking!
I enjoyed this video and it's great your kids eat alot of fruits and veggies. I struggle with lunch ideas because my son's school is nut-free. He loves peanut sandwiches but I can't pack it. He hates deli meat so you can imagine my struggle . . .
Honestly I was hesitant to watch this video because I thought I would finish it feeling like I should kick myself or I’m not doing enough. This made me feel so good! I feed pretty much the same things to my 3 year old we always shop at Trader Joe’s and get organic whenever it’s an available option. Sometimes I feel like I should be cooking up these crazy meals from scratch everyday, but honestly I’m not a great cook and she is soo picky. We’re vegetarians btw and your meal ideas are always a good help. Thank you for this video :)

It’s amazing your boys eat so healthy, all I ever hear is kids rejecting anything that doesn’t come from a box or has cheese melted all over it. Very nice to see this and fun little meal ideas!
I liked the style of this video, and Oliver's reaction to the ravioli cracked me up. So cute!
Love this!!! Planning on having kids and definitely need some snacking/meal ideas. Thank you for sharing 💗
I'm studying nutrition and this is super healthy! Great choices :)
She really care for her children. but this is the opposite of balanced diet
Very low fat can will lower growth hormone like testosterone.
She literally have close to zero protein
Love that throw & go platter idea. Great way to add in a variety of foods.
Awesome video per usual! Well timed with back to school. Looking forward to more fall videos and more fashion videos!
Love this! My little guy is now eating small soft pieces of food, and I felt like I was running out of ideas. This was super helpful!
U are leading such a well planned life in every way😊
I loved all the meals. Please keep the videos coming I’d love to see more kid related. I often struggle with what I should feed them so this gives me great ideas.
Wow your a good mom.
You put so much thought in your children’s food. 👌🏻
I don't have kids yet but I still love watching these videos! Those are actually meals I'd myself like to eat(with adjusted proportions lol)!
Yes. More of these videos please. Your kids are so cute!
every time you upload a video it just cheers me up
I shopped at Trader Joe's for the 1st time this past weekend &I'm in love with that store! I def thought they were bougie but prices are decent
Thank you for such an informative and inspiring video. Pls make another video with more ideas of meals for kids. You are awesome!
Great vid Rachel! ☺ I love the way you peel your avacados! ❤
Great ideas! 💗👌🏻Thank you for sharing! More healthy meal options please, always looking for inspiration.
Hi Rachel compliments! Great vegetarian dishes. I’m not vegetarian but I love ❤️ your recipes I’m a vegetable 🌽 lover
Your boys are so cute! I love Isaiah’s little baby hands!
This video got me feeling so relaxed...and hungry
Love the ideas! Would you do an updated favorites for Toddlers/grade school kids?
Love this video great ideas for adults also. Please make more like this. Thank you
So sweet that at breakfast your toddler went straight for his fruit lol my 5 year old does the exact same thing.
Love your channel another awesome video. Thank you I look forward to your videos.
Her voice and content is so soothing! Long time subscriber and is still one of my favorite youtubers! ☺️
How cute!! You gave me so many ideas!! Especially with the nuggets, ravioli & pancakes!! 👌
Great tips! I love the platter idea! I LOVE your food videos! More please!!
I found this really helpful! It can be hard to switch it up and keep it healthy at the same time. I know my kids get bored with their meals and this gave me some new ideas 😊
Love watching your videos ! love the kids platters, will definitely try it on my boy :)
Thank you for sharing this idea.i have to try this to my kid.love you
Thank you for this from one mom to another! Hugs. Love the ideas.
We love the cheese and spinach raviolis or tortellini. We'll brown ground turkey with the sauce for added protein! My 16month old loves it
I don't have any kids (yet), but I feel like most of these are really good options for myself as a college student. I am in school at odd hours and these would make great snacks or mini meals and also get me to eat a lot better :)
i love the food that you feed your kids! i wish i did this for my baby sister. it's so hard to feed her healthy things now
And I love it when you do meals for kids
That’s cute making platters for kids. I do the same but my son calls them free samples lol cause I cut the food small and it reminds him of free samples at Costco or Walmart 😊
OMG these ideas r just great in general...I’m always trying to think what I can make easy and fast for myself...love the platter idea! Now I have some new ideas...thx😋
oliver was just so excited every time you put a plate in front of him!
love this!! thank you because i needed this since my son started school, we eat the same exact way so this makes it so easy for me with these quick ideas :) P.S my son literally watches every video of yours with me, i believe it may be your voice and loves you food videos.

Love how fun and easy and nutritional the food in this video is. Parents rely too much on prepackaged food and it’s really not necessary
I can't believe your son is already in school! I have been watching your videos since before he was even born! lol!
Great video I have 4 kids and it’s hard trying to find different foods for them to eat I also have a son named Isaiah he’s 1 and he will also eat anything we give him😆

It's very to find high calorie food that's healthy
*But* thre is nothing wrong with lays or cream
I’m not married but i do take care of my nieces and nephews. They stay with me most of the time , so these ideas are good .

we do platters too! its our go to lunch but we call them cold plates
They do sell mushroom ravioli at Trader Joe's. I'm not a huge fan of it but my mom likes them a lot
Omg i really needed this! Thanks will be trying all of it after i go grocery shopping. 🤗

Love these videos! I actually watched it with my son! He loved it and asked me to make some of the meals that you made for your boys!
My kids eat almost the same things regularly! Cucumber and tomatoes all the time! I need to remember ravioli too, they'd love that.
Love Love Love your ideas --- more please... especially for lunch & dinner. My boys are VERY picky - one will not eat a veggie! I try to hid them in 'something' but he tends to not like it. It's so stressful ... lol

You're so awesome and seem like such a great mom! Everything looks so good! I make those "platters" too for my kids often haha its the best and always a winner! Thanks for some inspo! xo
Great video!! I needed some ideas for my kids. I love Trader Joe’s also. I feel so lucky to have one close to us. 💗
Hello Rachel, your videos are just like you, extremely inspiring and beautiful. keep it up. love all of your videos.
Love this!! Thank you!!! This'll definitely help me with ideas to feed my boys (I have 2, 4 year old and 21 month old).
Everything looks delicious thank you so much. How do I get my kids to like veggies? They hate them 😢
What is your daily routine? I mean when do you wake up and at time you have dinner and when do you sleep?
My kids are the same with meat. They hate it, but im lucky they love fruit and vegetables. Im gonna try some of your ideas. Thanks again
More meal planning vidoes please. Thanks for this one Rachel :)
Thank you!!! First time mommy and I need ideas like these 😍
this is nice, I wish when i was growing up my lunches were like this haha, it was always school lunch or something store bought. Still good ideas for lunches as a college student though lol
These are wonderful! This is helpful as a new mom.
Love the throw and go platter idea!
THANK YOU for not feeding your kids loads of meat and dairy! It’s high time people realized that all that stuff isn’t good for us or our kids for healthy growth 👍🏼
So you want a bone and skin child?
Love this video! Will you do a grocery store haul and garden haul?
Just a tip from your friendly HealthWealth Nutritionist here! I notice some of these packaged foods have calcium carbonate. This is mined and quarried from chalk or marble and other and basically cannot be absorbed. It settles in your bones causing arthritis pain and other joint issues, so read ingredients and try to avoid this! Happy snacking!
I don’t even have kids yet. I just love your videos! ☺️
Hey where did you buy that container where you stored the pb and j rolls ? It’s pretty awesome :)
Love the kid dinner ideas!! More please 😆
I enjoyed this video and it's great your kids eat alot of fruits and veggies. I struggle with lunch ideas because my son's school is nut-free. He loves peanut sandwiches but I can't pack it. He hates deli meat so you can imagine my struggle . . .
Where is that red plate from? My son could use one. I thought it was perfect! Never seen those around
Honestly I was hesitant to watch this video because I thought I would finish it feeling like I should kick myself or I’m not doing enough. This made me feel so good! I feed pretty much the same things to my 3 year old we always shop at Trader Joe’s and get organic whenever it’s an available option. Sometimes I feel like I should be cooking up these crazy meals from scratch everyday, but honestly I’m not a great cook and she is soo picky. We’re vegetarians btw and your meal ideas are always a good help. Thank you for this video :)
