Hey Everyone!
I’ve gotten a lot of questions about how I prep my salads on the weekend to set myself up for making healthy choices during the week, with salads that stay fresh for 7 days. I use Ball mason jars in the quart size to make these salads with loads of fresh fruit, cruciferous vegetables rich in cancer-fighting sulferophane like broccoli and red cabbage, and anti-cancer powerhouse mushrooms. In this video I explain the order which I stack these veggies in the jar, which consistently keeps them fresh for me for up to a week, and the way that I serve and dress them at work.
I follow a bright line eating (no sugar, no flour, measured meals, mealtimes) philosophy and a whole food plant based diet to stay healthy and trim. I designed this meal plan with the vegan, WFPB and nutritarian principles explained in the books “Eat to Live,” by Dr. Joel Fuhrman (the salad is the main course!”) and“How Not to Die” by Dr. Michael Greger. This salad hits /12 items on Dr. Greger’s daily dozen in one meal!
Each salad includes:
6oz fruit (pineapple, blackberry, blueberry, peach, strawberry, grape, kiwi)
12 oz mixture of baby spinach, broccoli, red cabbage, onion, mushroom
Dressing: Applied right before eating = 1 tablespoon oil (I love olive, walnut, flax seed, or sesame), 2 tablespoons tamari sauce (gluten free soy sauce) or choice of vinegar
I have a longer video on how I prep my bright line complaint meals with recipes.
You can find that here:
• Our BRIGHT LINE EATING...
As I approach my goal weight I’ve needed to tweak the above a little to keep up my weight loss. The last few weeks, I’ve been eating 3 of these huge salads a day and an absolutely enormous (I.e. 15-20 oz) serving of homemade sauerkraut. I’ve found that as there weather gets nicer and produce is getting more varied and abundant at the grocery I’ve been really craving lighter foods and fresh salad. When I hit my goal weight, I’ll be transitioning back to more frequent beans and starches like rice, sweet potatoes, yams, etc.
I also have a pantry tour which explains the stuff I keep on hand to prep beans:

OMG! Yes I love mason jars and have used them for many years to store foods, canning, eating, drinking from. They are sooo versatile, and last forever! I just periodically, if not canning for shelf storage, buy new lids and rings, and they wear out. Also, I wanted to let you know I get many of my jars at thrift stores for very cheap. You just have to search (I prefer the wide-mouth too, easier to wash, etc.!), and make sure there are no nicks in the glass around the mouth of the jar. Thank you for this great vid. I also have gone WFPB and reversed my CHF heart disease. G-d bless!!

I was referred to you from someone else who does BLE on IG; this video in particular. I am so happy I found you! All of your videos are so ME! I love it. :) Minimalism, BLE, travel, DIY. So good! I lost 50 pounds so far with BLE. I hope to see more videos from you. I have wanted to start a youtube channel like yours, but can't find the time or motivation.

Wow, salads for every meal. Good for you. I am stuck on my steel cut oatmeal in the mornings because I love that. I am on auto pilot with that whole process now, as I’m sure you are with salad prep! You should sprinkle some ground flax seed on top of salads for the lignans/ omega 3s. :-) I do about 1-2 tbsp a day.

@ColonFrog 6 лет назад

I so rarely eat salad and never eat raw broccoli, and the idea of mixing it with the fruit really Icked me out at first. By the end of the video you had me convinced! I think I’m gonna give this a go and see if I can convince my little girl to try some too! Thank you for the video!

@mealcoordinator5725 2 года назад

These look great! But what about a protein?

@anajarvis1275 4 года назад

What do you do for protein? Or is it just salad?. I love this jar idea. But i need some sort of protein.

Great video! I think it only seals with heat when the button is down that's a true seal.

@Dichanter 6 лет назад

Hi. Looks great. Can you outline a little of the quantity of each item that is needed to complete this many salads? how many containers of spinach leaves shouldI buy orr how much fruit? Maybe just a shopping list to get me started. Thanks.

@fionablue7611 6 лет назад

Great video concise and informative, your voice is pleasing and easy to listen to, but the music is over powering, annoying and unnecessary.

@amylynn9080 4 года назад

Do you always have your 4oz of protein on the side?

@annettetinworth7423 5 лет назад

Once you cut into fruit and veg you start to loose nutrients so if you want maximum of vitamins it’s best to prep food for only two to three days , seven days food can ferment

@marigailcooper8925 2 месяца назад

Do you prewash your fruits and veggies before putting them in the jars?

I'm watching for a 2nd time. I hope to be able to capture your 7 day prepared meals. They look wonderful. I've lost 15+ # so far but reaching a plateau using My Fitness Pal on a 1200 cal. diet.

I got a silly question but do you guys eat the salad straight out the jar how do you mix the ingridients in the jar? Or do you serve it in a dish and then mix?

@janastout1147 2 года назад

Is sauerkraut a protein? I guess if I’m not fully vegan, so to get my proteins I would just add 4 oz of protein to or with the salads, correct? I’m a newbie so still learning. Did you ever eat 3 meals a day with a breakfast with oats and grains?

@WhatChelseaEats 4 года назад

@rosettastabile9320 2 года назад

Hi I will definatly make at least 7 salads to start out. I have so many mason jars; however mine have a slightly narrower lid. I think they will still work, I'll just have to pull the salad out. What do you think about using arugula with the spinich and or romain? So this would count as 1- 6oz fruit serving and 1- 8oz salad/6oz of veggies?

@dkgoercke1954 4 года назад

Where did you get your square white salad bowl. I like big salad bowls which make it easier to eat and not make a mess like salads can be.

Awesome method! Would you suggest a substitution for the mushrooms though like any nuts or seeds? (Not keen on mushrooms).

Hey! Great video. I just started BLE and love this idea. I notice you don't have any grains or legumes in your salads. Have you just swapped fruit in for them?

@fb6422 3 года назад

I have been looking at jars that can be used. Both kilner and Mason ball jars do preserving jars. they have a a 2-part lid. Are these the type you use to make the salads in? if not then what type do you use

What are the differences between Fuhrman and BLE? Love the length of this vid.

@thatwendygirl68 6 лет назад

no meat or dairy for me, but I like the idea of addressing the addiction . it DEFINITELY is for me. after a month of no dairy, no sugar and no white flour or refined/processed foods, I feel so much more in control. i'm losing weight like crazy and so relieved. feeling like I can actually do this! weight watchers failed so many times. because, as I now realize, I was "budgeting" cackers and bread and sweets, etc.

@beverlycorona2245 5 лет назад

You look very good to be losing so much weight. I like your salad idea but I think sometimes you should add a few walnuts or some type of nuts in it even Brazilian nuts that has selenium in them. But not Everyone likes nuts LOL

@cherylsmith-bell6509 5 лет назад

I add a handful of sunflower seeds, raw, unsalted. I have made dressing with a ripe banana and half an avocado, and all the garlic powder oinion powder and basil that you like/ fresh to if you have it oh and the best is cilantro! Delish!

@dianneroy3208 6 лет назад

Do you eat the same salad three times a day? I noticed on the last video I watched you had cooked lentils dal that you made. Are you now just strictly fruits and veggies?

@AutumnBradleyORell 6 лет назад

Doesn't the fruit at the bottom get crushed from packing the veggies down?

@plantbasedbecky5376 5 лет назад

@malaprinceza100 5 лет назад

Hello.One question.Do you think or know that BLE works(better) in vegan than ordinary eating?While I ate vegan or vegetarian food,I was loosing weight,then I moved to all food and only maintain my weight,no chance to lose a gram.Thank you.

@lucillefemine 5 лет назад

What else do you eat besides salad?

@AdamVsAccount 6 лет назад

Would putting nuts/hard cheese/hard boiled egg be a good idea? Thinking of ways to add some protein in

Try using cooked lentils, or other beans over your salad and raw sunflower seeds! Yummy!

@DrewJaynes 6 лет назад

Wow, love this! Unfortunately, if I ate that much spinach I'd have some next level kidney stones (I love spinach but not allowed to eat it :sadface:). I also don't really love the taste of kale - can you suggest any other alternative than kale for the spinach portion of your salad jar?

@AsilayMithsay 5 лет назад

What about baby arugula? That stuff takes longer to go bad. It's kind of peppery tasting though.

@PatChatGuitar 6 лет назад

I was doing this for a few weeks but my hands are too big to fit in the mason jar to clean it properly hahaha Ive still been having a salad everyday but I just mix the ingredients on the day of... I should find some way to clean them because I miss just doing it once per week instead of daily!

Mushrooms are only beneficial for your health if they are cooked. Not sure you knew that or not. I learned that recently from the owner of Four-Sigmatic mushroom tea/coffee/mushroom blends.

@prizantsproducts4u 5 лет назад

You can also eat them raw and get nurishment (great for building the immune system), but they get more nurishing if heated. They are good for you though both ways.

But I def do not pack it down as much as you do....maybe that is the reason, maybe its because of using dressing.... I will try cabbage. I have not seen a video yet where you talk about what you drink??? do you drink like a gallon of water a day? curious of your opinion on raw garlic and apple cider vinegar with the mother?
