Plant Based Grocery List Made Simple 

I have been plant based for about six years now. This is the first time I have come across a simple shopping list that actually uses real and simple foods, most of which I already use. I have actually made a potato soup using potatoes and plant milk. It was actually yummy! I'm going to try that with purple potatoes next. With broccoli and cauliflower, I like to make nuggets. I make my own breading to cover and bake. Better than chicken nuggets! I also use riced cauliflower in my ground 'meat', with super finely chopped mushrooms, ground walnuts, tomato paste, and finely chopped onion. I have used carrots and celery in stir-fry, with onion, bell peppers, eggplant, and this little green squash that comes from Mexico and sometimes Costa Rica. Sometimes I add super firm tofu. I have so many different way to fix beans. I like a variety. The hard one to find in this area is red lentil. I may need to go online for that. I use a variety of squash, just not zucchini or yellow squash. Those make me nauseous and I lose my appetite. Pureed pumpkin goes into my chili. I use a ton of bell peppers in a variety of colors.I love to make smoothies with spinach and kale. Blueberries make a purple smoothie and blackberries make a pink smoothie. I enjoy a variety of whole grains, and again may need to find some of them online. I use a lot of tomatoes. so many different ways to use them. Love my berries, bananas, apples, fresh mandarin oranges, pears, black grapes (gets removed from the stems and put into freezer), melons, etc. I make my own veggie stock from veggie cuttings and peels. That way I know what is in it and not all that extra stuff that is not needed. I process ground walnuts with dates and make into walnut/date balls and put them into the freezer. Nice when I need something sweet with a touch of fat. Cashews I usually use for making some of my cheeses. For some unknown reason I'm thinking of red cabbage soup with tofu and fire-roasted corn and some jackfruit. Haven't tried this yet. Hope it tastes good when I make it. Don't know what seasons to use yet. I have problems being able to tolerate chili peppers, so I usually use cumin powder and chili powder. Thank you for sharing this list. Looks like I rambled on again.

I wish i had friends In real life like you guys!❤🙏thanks for existing in the youtube universe!~sending love from a fellow vegan❤️🙏😊✨✌️🌱

Thanks for the video! Needing inspiration here as I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with starting this journey. I’ve been vegetarian for a few years now, but that does not mean I’ve been eating healthy!!! Way too much cheese, bread/pasta/crackers and oil. in the next few days I am going to watch some of your cooking videos and selected just a few that sound the best to me, buy what I need and take them for a test drive. 🚗 Beep! Beep! 🚗 Here I come! 🚗

My list: whole wheat pasta, canned black beans, cayenne pepper, kale, bananas, apples, carrots, whole wheat flour, yeast, black tea bags, salt. All food items have single ingredient except the black beans but I will switch to no salt and add salt from a shaker. All food items usually bought at Walmart.

Some liquid smoke on mushrooms baked in the oven until totally dried… yum! Little pieces of mushcan love it on top of your Mac and cheese recipe

Farro is my favorite thing to jazz up my salads.

What a great video subject! I’ve seen grocery hauls from people, but never an actual list of staples to get every week. Great job Dillon and Reebs!

Love the reminder to keep it simple! Shopping, cooking, and eating doesn’t have to be hard or complicated when eating WFPB!Saw you have a new soup mix. I’m going to order a bunch for my emergency pantry and my work travel pantry! Love the dehydrated vegetables, going to stock up on that again. Thanks for another great video! 👍🏼👍🏼

I use your veggie stock so often - better than what I can buy in the store!

My shopping list includes everything you mentioned plus corn on the cob, peas, green beans and sometimes fresh beets and rutabaga. Good info for newbies, of which I'm only 4 months in.

Thank goodness for a simple list.. I’ve given up on plant based after 3 attempted failures until I found your channel ordered date sugar from you thanks!/ terri

If you have Azure standard drop in your area. I get all of my dry beans through them. I can't have salt, so dry is so cheap and easy!

Another awesome video Dillon & Reebs. All my favourite foods were mentioned in this video. Thanks Dillon & Reebs for being a inspiration. Love 🥰 the video and love ❤ Dillon & 💖 Reebs from Scotland.

Chestnuts are one of my all-time favourite foods, I grew up in Italy where it's easy to buy dried chestnuts, I live in London now so I'm thinking of buying a dehydrator to dry them. Chestnuts are not just good for roasting, try boiling them for about an hour (less if they're smaller) and scooping the flesh out with a spoon, so good! You can also microwave them (score them first) if you're in a hurry or buy chestnuts vacuum-packed. I can't even start my day without a big cantaloupe melon + watermelon salad, an essential even on the coldest winter mornings, it hydrates me after a night's sleep and this is just the start of a big fruit-based breakfast. Also frozen berries, so good for you!

Love love your Veggie Broth. I use it in everything from stir fry to stews. 😋 Delicious addition to any meal.

Great list. Other staples are (any) plant milk, flax seeds & key spices.

I love the nuttiness of farro and use it periodically instead of rice. Love adding farro to a roasted vegetable salad to make it heartier

Love the veggie broth mix

Great video! Maybe a cooking show idea in the future would be recipes using those other grains, like millet or buckwheat.

What a great grocery list, Dillon and Reebs! Thank you for keeping things so easy and simple. I have a similar standard grocery list based on Dr Fuhrman’s gbombs (greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds). Of course I add other foods to the list like cucumbers, tomatoes, and carrots. I love eating cukes almost every day!

Thank you, both, so helpful🙏🏻

Thank you for another great video full of very good advice. I was so overwhelmed initially with everything I thought I had to eat, and I really appreciate the way you both streamline things. Now I keep things pretty simple and honestly have found that I'm enjoying it.

Great video. Thx guys. I love me some potatoes but need some ideas to change them up!!!

That veggie stock is absolutely FABULOUS! I will never go without it! And its just me so it last a long time!

This is my list exactly. Your recipes are amazing. Love you guys.

I love your simplicity and pragmatism!

Hi, for future reference. Not all were mentioned in the video. Stock the pantry with dry and canned food. Starches: Potatoes, Squash Non-starchy Veggies: Broccoli, Cauliflower, Onions, Garlic, Carrots, Celery, Mushroom, Zucchini, Peppers hot and not, Tomato Greens: Spinach, Kale, Collards Beans: Chickpeas, Black Beans, White Beans, Pinto Beans, Lentils Grains: White Rice, Brown Rice, Quinoa, Millet, Oatmeal Fruits: Bananas, Strawberries Fats: Nuts, Seeds - add to dishes, make sauces rather than eating handful after handful Veggie Broth

Great info.

This is my grocery list too. I agree on the fruit comment. So we buy pre chopped pineapple, melon, mango and tonnes of berries because they are so easy to eat as snacks. I’m not messing up my kitchen to chop up a watermelon 🍉!! Dillon- never apologize for promoting your products. They are AWESOME 😎!!

Great video, I can get overwhelmed with how much I need to get etc. I have to think in terms of just sticking to a few main dishes and keeping it simple as you said. Sometimes I can't do any cooking due to chronic pain issues and it's helpful to just have a really quick dump and go meal.....I do have fresh fruits dessert, it's good and has a lot of fiber too. Thank you for keeping it simple and easy, I appreciate you two 🙏💕

You guys have the best shirts! 💕

Thank you!

Excellent video for a newbie like me! I’m going to have to watch it again and take notes this time 😅✍🏾🤓

As usual, great advice.

Purple potato’s are great (stokes)

Learned how to cut mushrooms and onion from you! You developed my love for chopping! Thank you!!

You are right about canned white beans - it is impossible to find them without salt. So I cook up a large batch in the instant pot and then freeze them until I need them. And the veggies I use in almost every recipe (onions, celery, carrots, peppers, zucchini, cabbage, etc.) I slice/dice/chop them all up in the food processor, and then freeze them. Makes meal prep MUCH quicker. I have large freezer bags full of each veggie, ready to just toss into the pot.

I love me a raw potatoe! My family eats them raw and they are sooo good.

This is pretty much my grocery list as well

It's a shame that I can't buy your products in Germany and support you at the same time. Everything sounds so delicious and perfectly developed. Thanks for this great video, I always recommend your channel to my patients who are looking for good wfpb recipes.

Always love y’all videos 😅❤

Hi i learning a lot from your channel would you please make a video how to cook food in air frier I bought one to skip used of oil but so far failed 😞 ❤❤

It's really easy to prepare a butternut squash, just cut in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and microwave. No need to peel. For flavour, I love oil-free sundried tomatoes and also sundried veggies from Lidl in the UK, part of their Italian week that they have a few times a year, I just stock up and they last forever, very low cal too

Kabocha squashes are a staple whenever they're in season, otherwise sweet potatoes are amazing and I don't need to add salt to these, unlike ordinary potatoes that I always need to salt. To stay slim I microwave riced cauliflower and eat it with my favourite sauce instead of pasta. I buy a lot of frozen veggies: Brussels sprouts, spinach, broccoli, green beans. Chopped tomatoes, garlic and red onions, fresh basil and/or other herbs are a staple too. Mushrooms are amazing and very low cal: enoki mushrooms are a fantastic substitute for pasta at a fraction of the calories.

Refried beans from dried beans is superior; otherwise, canned is fine. I absolutely love your B & W art film inserts, keep them coming! 😆

I love the idea of using healthy fats like a condiment ❤ totally agree with it and I’m going to start making that change today 👍

Hello, guys 💋

I eat tomato everyday. If I make a meal that doesn't include tomatoes, I'll just squeeze some tomato paste on a tablespoon & eat it like that.

Do a Costco haul!!

I wish you labeled the meals that where in the video. Their where several that popped up that I would have loved to know what they where They looked delicious!!!

The squash drama is really funny😅

Great list! I don’t think you mentioned plant milk and essential spices such as black pepper, cumin, garlic & onion powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, etc. 😊

I do get overwhelmed trying to find all ingredients.. hope this helps me

Reebs and Dill! Do you guys have any "guide", etc. that you learned from on how to store things?

Reebs: You get to taste the flavor of the actual vegetable! 😂😍

Do you deliver your products to Australia at all....

Do you buy organic peppers? I am afraid to buy peppers now because of the latest pesticides that consumer reports posted.

Would flax or chia be a good replacement for nuts in sauce recipes? I can't eat nuts.

I know you guys aren't big on salt but do you feel black salt is any better. I've been using it tiny quantities, it smells like sulphur but has an ok taste.

What do you eat that you cut with a knife while eating?

Where do you two get all of your great shirts?

Love the P.I.M.P Snoop mix….lol

Your a fun guy haha

Just curious reebs,what do you spend average a month for groceries?

Are you not worried about the bpa in cans?

Do you sell the t-shirts you are wearing?

"Cheffiness" 😂😂😂

Yes you need some fat with your meal, not just for the richness but for the fat soluble vitamin absorption. Most vitamins are fat soluble expect C and Bs which are water soluble. Thanks for the video

🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋😁

Tomatoes are a fruit . . . just sayin" . . . and I always think of peppers as a kind of fruit (Vitamin C and such)!

Just don’t go to the shops hungry so you don’t buy a bunch of fatty crap, Carbs FTW!! 💪💪💪

Dillon. You have employees. Pay one of them a few extra hours to can you some beans. 😄

I disagree with you. IMO, frozen broccoli and cauliflower are not as good as fresh. Frozen are too mushy.

I'm sorry... your kid's school doesn't allow nuts... like at all? I get that their likely trying to keep kids safe... but that sounds pretty over the top to me.

Excellent video as always guys so informative and making life soooo easy.........Thank you
