Even though I don't have any allergies i would still eat those recipes and it's cool that Nicole did recipes that are free from soy, gluten and nuts because it shows that Nicole doesn’t just care about herself but others especially your viewers. Love🥰 this video and love ❤Nicole and all her viewer's.
I needed this so much!!! My daughter is intolerant to so many things. I want to be able to breastfeed her but it was getting difficult. Keep these videos coming!
Wow. Just made the chickpea salad and had to stop myself from devouring the entire bowl. SO GOOD. Nikki you are a talent!! So glad I found your channel. You are making me and my husband happy vegan foodies! Please keep them coming.
THIS COMMENT MADE MY DAY!!! Thank you so much! That's so nice of you to say 😊😊 I'm happy that you and your husband enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to let me know!
So good!!! The trick is to use very very ripe bananas. I cut them into ice cube sized pieces before freezing so it’s easier, and make sure they’re totally frozen before blending so the ice cream will be really thick and smooth 🍦🍦🍦 You’ll have to scrape down the blender a few times to make sure it blends completely but let it keep going until it’s thick and creamy. Its like magic and so delicious! Hope you love it!
@@NikkiVegan I truly appreciate you taking the time to reply to my comment! I watch your videos and your recipes are unique and always look delicious. I am sure your friends and family enjoy your cooking. :) I have made vegan "nice cream" before, yet never thought to use the cream of coconut to cream it up! Also, your magic shell and the presentation of the desert truly looks divine. Keep the food coming! Once again, thank you for taking the time to reply. Have a peaceful day! :)
Haha you’re the best! And me too! But this was a fun challenge ☺️ So many ways to be vegan so I hope this video will be helpful! Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching. Sending you hugs right back ☀️☀️💛💛
@@NikkiVegan I did enjoy it a lot and you gave me the inspiration to top my overnight oats or chia pudding with warm fruit 🤤 I had not thought about that!
@@1auntievenom oh no! I love it because it's pure protein and since I'm training a lot my diet requires more protein than the average so for me it's literally a life saver.. but for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease it's the worst of course 😓
Za’atar is so yummy! I am impressed, your dishes are very colourful and look delicious! Thank you for sharing. Nuts and tofu are often used for vegan cheese sauces so my favourite soy-free/nut-free things to make are the potatoes and carrots cheese sauce and the cauliflower Alfredo sauce. Connie’s RAWsome Kitchen has interesting aged cheese recipes using potatoes and rice instead of cashews. As for replacing soy, I know it is possible to make tempeh from chickpeas or lentils, haven’t tried yet... My favorite flatbreads are quinoa flatbread and red lentils flatbreads, both gluten-free and delicious. X&o from 🇫🇷
I so appreciate this video! My list of food allergies is extensive but top of the list is coconut...both oil and milk/cream/fat. I can tolerate just a little of the oil but am so fond of breathing that I must avoid all else! Even more extensive is the list of things I just don't like either for flavor or texture like bananas and cilantro. I can't have tree nuts and must limit soy consumption...so becoming plant based was a challenge but because I grew up in a vegetarian household it was an easier transition. My father worked in the Chicago stockyards in the 30s and never touched or ate any animal product after that and rarely ate any dairy so close to vegan without the label. I make it work but it is a challenge so any time a vlogger makes an effort to include those of us allergic ones, I am grateful! Now if you could help me figure what to sub for coconut oil in that magic yumminess...you would be my shero!! thanks for all you do and teach to build us all a better future!
Maybe a tiny bit of candy wax? nuts.com/cookingbaking/leavenerthickener/paramount-crystals.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwqIiFBhAHEiwANg9szjtIFwvPOKium4r8qoXMTLL7hmNLQn1jWqCQvwpTw_ay8o3O2FbX2RoCJH8QAvD_BwE
I have made magic shell with just the enjoy life brand chocolate chips, it still gets that hard/crackle effect. My family doesn’t like the taste of coconut oil or cilantro at all...I always switch up recipe ingredients to suit:). Glad you are able to find options for your special dietary requirements. Nikki does such a good job of being inclusive with her recipes:)
@@lisapoulsen5452 I will try that! I never make nice cream with bananas just what ever frozen fruit I have but wouldn’t that be good on the cherry too? Must try😁
Leah Phillips. Yes!!! That would be delicious. I’ve been having way too much of the Ben & Jerry’s Dairy Free Cherry Garcia...this would be a much better choice!!
Yay! This version was so delicious and very meal prep friendly too! I love already made it again in a big batch and it was perfect for easy lunches through the week ☺️ Hope you enjoy!
I was diagnosed with celiac disease and diabetes type 1 at age 10, so I had restrict at a pretty early age. When I went vegan last year I was prepared that I had to cut a lot of my favorites out of my diet. Seitan, couscous, bulgur, spelt and some oat products are pretty much the only "typically vegan" foods that I can't eat. It's probably a lot harder to be a vegan with soy allergy. But it's still possible :)
Hey! Thanks for sharing! I’d love to learn some of your favorite gluten free recipes 💛 Please send some my way of you have the time. I’d love to give them a try ☺️☀️ and I couldn’t agree more, there are so many ways to be vegan! How has the first year been for you?
I have a huge respect for you cuz instead of giving up like many so called vegan influencer.you stuck to this cruelty free lifestyle.. But.. But ... Don't forget to take your vit b 12 , d3 (derived from lichens ) and algea oil...
Due to recent health issues I've had to consider drastically changing my diet so gluten free and vegan is where I'm heading. Thank you so much for this video. I feel really lost getting into this. This genuinely made me go "oh okay I could do that "
Yay hope you enjoy! Like I said, I think the choice of fruit makes a huge difference! I didn’t love it with bananas but with pineapple, it’s dreamy! Let me know if you try the overnight oats recipe! It’s one of my favorites so far ☺️☺️☀️☀️🌴🌴
@@jbell9179 well it's mainly vit k2... But if you eat nattos ..you shouldn't be worried about that.. infact nattos can add 10 long years to your life.. But not everyone ,myself included, likes eatin nattos (I eat it nonetheless)..but if you don't...then you need vit k2 supplement
thank you for making this!! my 4 year old is allergic to soy, nuts & dairy. since cutting them out i've noticed meat can be inflammatory for him as well so i've been looking for healthy recipes and this is perfect i'm going to try some of these out!!!
You know Nichole, i had a really bad day today. I didn't really had much to do, and i had a tough time with my mother, and i just felt depressed. I watched your video and it made me feel a little better. Your a very sweet, caring, nice, clever, intelligent, and Beautiful 💖💕🥺 I appreciate you a lot, and you seem like one of the most responsible adults as a teenager myself. I appreciate you more than your content! Your such an amazing lady, and no matter what changes, i'll always believe in you! 😉 I subscribed too. Everytime i watch your videos, you just feel like a close friend to me, even though your an adult, and im only 16 lol. I wish i was your friend 😞 Your such a feel good person. I love you!! 🥺
Thanks Nikki, I really appreciate your videos. I was following High Carb Hannah for her recipes, but now her focus is mostly weight loss. Thanks for making veganism accessible to everyone!
Oh my goodness, that nice cream with magic hard shell looks divine! I'm definitely trying that! 😋💜 And you are totally right about needing to start making dinner when the thought of grazing hits, because once I start grazing my motivation to cook a proper meal disintegrates quite quickly. If I make a proper meal without snacking too much beforehand, it is so satisfying and delicious. I've also got to try that pineapple topping recipe! It looks very versatile as well as tasty.
I wanna try all these recipes in here! They all look so good 😋 I would love to see more videos like these that are allergy friendly 😄 thank you for always providing us with such amazing recipes and a great video style of calm and peacefulness 😊✌️❤️
Thank you so much for making this video. I have kids with nut allergies. We have just started transitioning into a more plant based diet. This video really helps!!!
Your rubber band + mason jar thing is lowkey genius hahaha. Love it! And love these recipes!!! I think I'm developing a gluten allergy (SO SAD) and I know I have a mild nut allergy, so these recipes are perfect :)
I wish I could taste this through the screen. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! I am always happy to learn new dairy free recipes from talented creators like you. I look forward to learning more recipes from you. I cook a lot and make cooking videos too so I am always looking for new ideas. Lets learn more from each other!
loved your recipes in this vid mate! especially that pineapple sauce! i tripled your listed ingreds, added a good scoop of chia seeds, and blended it all at the end so its a pureed sweet fruit conserve! LORDY its divine! ive had it on nice cream, crackers, hot toast, porridge, some really tart strawberries and even as a topping on my unfried rice! (here in Australia theres no pineapple jam to be bought anywhere! no idea why but ive been hanging out for it for YEARS, so this REALLY hit the spot!) A biggggg thankyouuuuuu to you LovelyGirl xox ps...LOVE that show youre netflixing there...VIRGIN RIVER! thats SUCH a good episode too! hey...being American...would u know if theres another series coming after that one pleeeeease?
The homemade vegan ice cream looked exactly like Ben&Jerry chocolate ice cream,but wayyy healthier!I love your video,they are so well made with a lot of love and pation to cooking and eating healthy.Thank you and keep it on with the beautiful video making. 😁❤
Wow! I loved this. I am allergic to (it seems) just about everything and this is great. What kind of blender did you use to make the ice cream? I need a small one like that. Thank you for all of your videos. Have a wonderful week.
such a great video idea! love this concept, definitely going to be trying these even though i don’t have any allergies lol. baked veggies are my favorite! and that nice cream though! looks amazing 😍💓
This challenge was so creative and omg everything looked SO delicious!! 🤩😋 Watching this before bed and its making me hungry lolol, I have some tropical oats to look forward to in the AM! 🥥🌴
I would love if you did more soy free videos!!! Staerted eating free range eggs from a local farm once I found out about my allergy. My protein levels were very low.
Can you please help me with some recipes. I broke out with hives & went to the ER. I did an allergic test and cannot have soy,nuts, shellfish & legumes. Thank you
This challenge was 6 months of my life trying to figure out food allergies. Happy to say I can have soy and gluten :) but I can’t have any nuts or tahini which can make things really really difficult going anywhere vegan or following recipes! :( Thanks for bringing more light to food allergies! I also am allergic to buckwheat. Weird one I know. Also not an issue since I am mostly vegan (can’t give up seafood yet) but I am allergic to egg and then lactose intolerant.
Never put coconut in banana nice cream but excited to give that a try along with the magic shell! All of these recipes look so appetizing and nourishing. Love the little touches that bring your recipes from good to great. I’m curious what was playing on Netflix?
Nikki, this video is perfect! I've allergies to nuts and soy, so this helped me tremendously thank you so much - You think of everything! It is so kind and thoughtful of you to think of those with food allergies and still motivate to be vegan. PS you're sooo pretty! Curious to know what is your ethnic background?
Aw thank you so much for letting me know that this was helpful for you! That's really good to hear! I'll make sure to point out whenever my future recipes are soy/nut free too. And thank you! I'm half Norwegian and half Serbian 😊😊
what a fascinating background! I would love to see videos that maybe include recipes from your background, perhaps in your family passed down from generations :) Do you have any ideas for a substitute when it comes to things like peanut or other similar nut butter? I know there's soy nut butter, but I can't have that. thank you Nikki!
I am a vegan chronic kidney patient, and I am on a low protein diet because of it. It is actually hard to stay low enough, even as a vegan. You are getting plenty of protein people ;)
Can’t find the seasoning recipe for the veg. Searched your site and this one for the carrot soup you mentioned with no luck. Can you link it please? Sounds like a good one I’d like to keep on hand. thanks Nikki!
Hey! Sorry about that! It's on IG so let me figure out how to get that over to you. In the meantime here's a video with one of my favorite carrot soups ever! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vBtmhdkshQ4.html Hope yo enjoy!
Looks like a super yummy day for you!! My family loves banana nice cream so I make it all the time. However, I will definitely make your more decadent version next time. 😋
@@NikkiVegan omg thanks for responding! Well by frutose i mean fruit and syrups. I have fructose intolerance and I want to be more plant based but so much vegan food has fruit, (as well as gluten and soy). My honey alternative is sweet brown rice syrup, but it's hard to find alternatives to actual fruit in recipes. Your video did give me some ideas so i appreciate you doing this challenge!
Thanks for this. I have to try (key word try) to eat a low oxalate diet due to my kidneys stones and this was very close (minus a few items that I can easy swap for something more low oxalate) to my diet. Thank ypu for the ideas
Hi there, just stumbled on your video and really liked it and subscribed 😊 I just tried your first 3 links to your kitchen favs and links aren’t working for me, just FYI
I hear you I also have all these allergies plus others and crossreavtivity. @Nikkivegan it would be great if you could do this again but with the additional restrictions of no peas including pea protein, lentils or chickpeas as typically individuals with a soy allergy have these ctoss reactivities.
I understand the idea of protein powders as being useful for those who are transitioning to a vegan diet, but I think they are ultimately a processed food and therefore less desirable. This focus on protein in vegan diets to me is strange to me, but I went vegan 21 years ago.
Hey nikki! Just wondering how many calories this would be roughly? Looks like you are eating lots of food but it's very calorie dilute.. I feel like this is would only maybe be 1500 calories? Definitely not enough! Please correct me if I'm wrong x
No way! I would be so hungry lol I track my intake on Cronometer and routinely get between 2100-2400 on an average day. It's hard to tell portion sizes on screen but on average day that the range what makes me feel full and satisfied. We're all different though so I try not to focus on numbers in my videos 😊😊
That's great! I was thinking how hungry I would be also haha. I do exactly the same .. I track to make sure I'm eating enough.. so easy to under eat on this lifestyle. Your food always looks amazing! Keep sharing and inspiring 🙏
@@NikkiVegan I'm not, since I'm in Germany, but my boyfriend back in Norway is... in a very reduced version due to the circumstances this year. But I remembered you had Norwegian roots, so gratulerer med dagen ❤🇧🇻
@@karenmatzke Tusen takk and same to you! I was there three years ago for the celebration and it was soooooo fun and sooooo crowded so I imagine it's quite different now! Hope your boyfriend has a nice time celebrating there today though! I miss being in Norway a lot 💛
Great ideas. Watch out how many chickpeas you eat. They are loaded with estrogen per my nutritionist. Estrogen dominance causes cancer. I am doing vegan diet for estrogen dominant cancer. Birth control is estrogen dominant too. Wish I had known this at your age to prevent cancer.
I really appreciate you doing a video like this but I think you should be mindful of the wording. It is not a challenge for those of us who have to eat this way it is how we have to eat every day.
Hey ☺️ I meant no disrespect! I apologize if I offended you 💛 I made this video in response to comments I get all the time from people who want to go vegan but feel that they can’t because of allergies and so in that way, it can *seem* challenging to go vegan when you have to rule out entire food groups. So I made this “challenge” for myself to create recipes that aren’t just gluten free or soy free or nut free but all three. It was meant to be a fun thing, I guess I could have made that more clear. Again, I apologize if my wording came across as insensitive. I hope you enjoyed the video and liked the recipes though! I appreciate you watching snd I hope you have a great start to the week! 💛
Love your videos Nikki, and I was excited to look up the ritual powder.... but come on... 36$ for a pound, AFTER the 10% discount?! I have no issue with sponsorships or expensive products in general, but promoting an insanely expensive product like this within a video that’s supposed to show that veganism is accessible seems a bit tone deaf.
Hey 👋 I hear that! Like I said in the video, there are a lot of ways to get plenty of protein on a vegan diet and many of them are incredibly inexpensive like beans and whole grains but this is just another option for anyone who’s interested. It’s within the typical price range of other similar products but I think it has better ingredients so it’s a great option for those in that market. Plus there’s 15 scoops per bag, and I used 1/2 scoop in the recipe so there’s 30 servings in the bag if you’re using it to make overnight oats and that ends up being right around 1 dollar per serving. Like I said, 💯 not something one must have in order to be vegan but I wanted to show that there are lots of options including the four recipes I shared in addition to this product in the video. Hope that helps you see where I’m coming from 💛💛
@@NikkiVegan Understood, if I don’t 100% agree. Tons of respect to you for calmly and rationally engaging in conversation like this. Looking forward to the next video! 👍
