awe ily Brooke!!❤️

No it does not mess up the nutrients in the spinach , actually you can buy frozen spinach and it’s so much cheaper especially if it’s for that specifically. They say buying it frozen is even better nutrients wise because they freeze it at its top nutrient level and then ship rather than buying it fresh after it’s been thawed in store for a while . Learned this from actual nutritionist because I use spinach for everything.

Fun fact: greek yogurt is actually lower in lactose than other dairy products! Plus the probiotics in the yogurt likely help with overall gut health too so less of a tummy ache! Softer cheeses and creams have higher lactose and tend to bother people more (ice cream, soft cheese like Brie, etc.) whereas butter, hard cheese like cheddar, and Greek yogurt are lower in lactose and tend to cause less pain for ppl with lactose sensitivity or intolerance! ☺️🧀

omg Brody's certificate on the fridge I love

31:20 love that you share hello fresh meals because all their recipes are public on their site! But got a lil sad hearing you say you need to “redeem yourself” after pasta or “I’m disgusting” for adding butter

ah didn’t mean it in that way but I see how it came across!! I’m sorry!! I meant it as most ppl would probably think it’s gross how much butter I soak my pasta in but that’s how I like it & that I feel a lot better when I mix in a vegetable or two instead of just pasta💓

I definitely didn't take it that way, I think for you to nit pick a small comment someone made is honestly more destructive of you than her comment, when during the other 35 minutes of the video all she did was spread positivity, as if you've never once in your life made a comment like that, like come on seriously??

The way that you prefaced the whole video with "don't compare your food to mine" is SO IMPORTANT and SO APPRECIATED, I've been struggling sooooo much with former disordered eating habits and "what I eat in a week" vids used to trigger a lot of it but hearing you say that was SO impactful and helps SO much and was just very needed

I am loving how real and normal your videos are, especially the “what I eat in a days.” Thank you for putting this content into the world.

Hope this video blows up it’s honest and realistic

don’t apologize for eating however you choose, the pressure nowadays is crazy. i do the same thing purposely and recently realize i don’t have to explain myself to people who don’t understand why i try to only eat twice a day with little to no snacking in between. it actually is wayyy better for your long term health fasting that way. hehe crazy how everyone just has to critique other people that do what works for them 🤷🏻‍♀️ people shouldn’t take these videos as offense or people trying to convince them of anything hahaha yeah just wanted to give you that bit of reassurance love your videos ✨✨✨💕

The way Gretchen responded when max said “I think mine is chips and salsa”😂😂

ok yes love this. sometimes youtubers will post these types of videos and it's so unrealistic with their "one square of chocolate" i cant!!!! i love this I have a sweet tooth too! Good food choices and based off of what you want to eat not what you "have" to eat!

You and Max are just so sweet together! I hope to find a love like that when the time is right for me!

I am obsessed with hello fresh, makes meals during the week so much easier! I've been ordering for almost 3 years now.. total game changer. I've also had all the meals you've shown in this video, and wow, so good!!

All the colors in all the meals makes me so happy 😍

Gretchen you have no idea how much your what I eat in a week videos have helped me heal my relationship with food. You inspire me to be healthy and positive and I want to thank you for helping me eat again!

omg PLEASE consider doing a road trip to Trader Joe’s and grocery haul vlog 🥺 the vibes would be unreal

Yes yes I love what I eat in a day / weeks!!! I literally binge watch these videos on KZread

I'm also not a fan of eating alone. So when I am alone I will often put on a podcast or YT so it feels like I'm not alone.

Same I always put on a show or something. Some people say this behaviour makes you eat fast and less mindfully but I've found the opposite to be true: When I eat without any distractions I stuff my food down quickly because I get so bored lol

I’m in Texas and we currently are experiencing a horrible blizzard with -17 degree weather and on and off electric. But seeing you uploaded makes me so much happier that’ll I have something to watch while trying to stay warm! God bless, I absolutely love you and your videos.

I love this! Honestly everything is better with butter 😁 I'm working on eating more intuitively so I love hearing the reasoning behind your food choices 😊

These all looked amazing and thank you for eating enough! in ed recovery right now and this really helped

Brody's certificate is adorable, y'all are proud parents! so cute :)

Omg the light and fit vanilla Greek yogurt is the BEST! I don’t really eat dairy either but that’s the best stuff

Try the Trader Joe’s salad kits!! I used to not like making salads at home but those are so easy and were game changers for me :) they are all so good!

Let’s get this video to 200k views guys I believe her what I eat in a Week is realistic and natural

You have to try the cashew milk snickerdoodle one!! If you like the cookie dough types like having chunks of gingerbread dough in a sugar cookie base and it won't hurt your stomach because it's !

I keep my kale in the freezer for my smoothies and have never had a problem with it! It’s the best way to keep it good for longer :-))

I love the butternut squash ravioli from Trader Joe's! After I boil them in water, I put them back in the pot and I make a light sauce with olive oil, butter, garlic, salt, pepper, parmesan, and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning. I highly recommend!

I didn’t like cucumbers growing up, but absolutely love them now ❤️ Sometimes I’ll just slice on up and eat it plain. 🥒

I add banana, cacao nibs and jam to my peanut butter toast and that tastes great but my favorite topping for it are really ripe sliced fresh peaches when they’re in season 😋

Yes omg i hate lunch !! It’s just so inconvenient!! And it’s not like you have a whole 2 hours or so carved out to cook and enjoy it !! I’m so glad someone else feels this way

happy valentine’s day gretchen🤍 we love youuuu also- i’m making the chocolate chip banana bread today and i’m so excited to try itttt

these 40 minute vlogs are IMMACULATE💕 Happy birthday Max

Meal that makes me feel the best....just baked cod with maybe some broccoli or spinach! Fills you up but doesn't leave you feeling gross. I like having that for lunch as anything heavy at lunch time makes me sluggish for the rest of the day.

I’m a teacher and the hyper focus and forgetting to eat or realizing at the end of a project to need to go to the restroom can be a big indicator of ADHD!!

i love your content sooo much lately (and always)!

Love your outfits and your meals. Thanks for sharing this girl.

I love Caesar Salads. You can buy them in salad kits that come with everything. Throw everything in a bowl and toss. I add fresh ground pepper to mine. Delicious! 🥗

You had me at bulgogi :) It's my favorite korean dish gah!

i literally clicked on this video so fast, I’ve been so inspired by your videos lately 💗

I also hate lunch I feel you hahahaha. And without fail, salads always make me feel better. I crave salads all the time and love making them so I don't mind!

Hey Gretchen! I also am pretty lactose intolerant but can handle Greek yogurt. This is because they remove most of the lactose during processing! But it has beneficial probiotics. So keeping Greek yogurt in is sometimes even beneficial if you are slightly lactose 🤩

My Nespresso coffee doesn't get me jittery during the day (no coffee ever has) BUT I feel like I can never fall asleep, and I only drink it in the mornings! Needless to say my next pod order will have half-caf or decaf. Also my go-to snack is a Honeycrisp apple with peanut butter and dark cacao chips. It takes care of my sweet tooth!

Aww I love these so much! Where’s our what Max eats in day?!

omg all of these meals looked so fresh and so good!!!

That hello fresh bowl looks SO yummy! So many amazing ideas!

Yes Gretchen!! Love these videos girl!💗💗💗

Butter and salt is amazing and totally nutritious, keep it up lol for real!

try out the trader joes lemongrass and hibiscus sodas! they are my FAVORITE! so light and refreshing

Try to buy only Organic Dairy. There’s a big difference! I like the brand Stonyfield. They make a 100% Grass Fed Greek yogurt that is to die for. Please try it if you can find it. The milk is cows that eat a grass fed diet. Much better for you then Dannon.

I love how realistic you are!

Omg felt so much I love butter and salt 😩😭🥺

Happy valentine's day!!❤💗hope you have a great week!! Awesome job!!😁

Cucumber can definitely be a miss for me more times than not... if it were in a bowl of flavors like you were having I maybe could get on board but like... they’re kinda slimey? Just me?

Lol my husband thinks I’m crazy for eating strawberry pb toast so ty for showing the berries on toast 😂😂😂

ooooh gg I loooove a snack plate! I'm a nanny and sitting down to eat a full meal just really doesn't fit into my day. I love packing carrots and cucumber with hummus and apple and pb and some kind of crackers! it's so filling and easy to eat and ends up being fairly balanced.

Also, one of my favorite hacks to making quick meals is once a week cooking up some grilled chicken to have on hand all week. it's not full-on meal prep but it takes the hardest part out of the equation bc you can pretty much add grilled chicken to anything! I can cook up some pasta, throw it on a salad, put it on a pizza, eat it with some veggies, put it in a quesadilla etc.

I really need to try Hello Fresh this year

I love you so much Gretchen you are the best!! Also the certificate for Brody on the fridge... adorable:')

I’m that way!! Always need a sweet after dinner

Happy Valentine’s Day to you & Max! 🥰🥰

killing the upload game

The probiotics in yogurt help you digest the lactose. Plus greek yogurt doesn't have much lactose.

get the vegan caesar salad dressing from TJs, game changer

gretchen, I relate to you so much about being so far from a trader joes and LITERALLY buying the whole frozen section while I am there. I LOVE the cauliflower, sweet potato and kale gnocchi. It was CHANGED my life.

I wish they would ship the cauliflower or sweet potato gnocchi to the Netherlands. They always look so tasty.

You NEED to try the almond milk chocolate chip cookie dough ben and Jerrys!!!! THE BEST FLAVOR!

Happy Valentine’s Day

" I have something against lunch" ahahhaha girl me too!

Loved this, all your food looks so yummy!! I feel the same abt lunch & I’m lactose intolerant but can tolerate yogurt!! Also funny bc I loved cucumbers & suddenly started to hate them lol. Sending you sm love❤️❤️

I love cucumbers sliced for a snack or on Greek salads

I am loving all these meal ideas! I am very lactose intolerant, but have been able to do greek yogurt which is super nice. My favorite is the Oikos vanilla greek yogurt because it is so high in protein and low in sugar, but tastes so good. I think you would like it too!

drinking game: take a shot every time gretchen says she hates lunch hahah

You NEED to try the goat cheese + sundried tomato ravioli from Trader Joe’s! My favorite thing they sell!!

My favorite Ben & Jerry’s ice cream is Chunky Monkey by far ! Thanks Gretchen, now I want it 🤣

Love this!! Needed more healthy food ideas 🥰

granola butter on waffles is AMAZING

try adding ginger to the smoothie!! So so yummy

I make that same smoothie! It’s the one I used to get from Whole Foods :)

OMG my trader joe’s is an hour away too and you already know i empty those shelves

LOOOOVE these vids!

My fave Ben & Jerry’s flavor is the tonight dough so highly recommend if you haven’t tried it before!! Also looking up Asian chicken salad recipes as we speak 😂

“Dessert for my lunch” Okay ME TOO

the skinny protein powder is the BEST protein ever

I’ve seen so so many hello fresh sponsored videos, I am so curious! I’m a college student, and it sounds so nice to have hello fresh, but I want to hear someone else’s opinion who’s tried it. Do you think it’s worth the $$$ and do you like it?

@baileyjohnson3324

i did it twice in college and really liked it! it's pricey but really fun as a special treat once a month (or whatever interval you choose!) or it's great to have during finals because you know you've got a box of easy dinners ready to go. definitely a little more than i usually spent on groceries but it was worth it on occasion for me!

@ashleydanalovespink

I’ve tried it multiple times and it’s honestly so great! Just can get pricey! But one thing I love about them is they post all of their recipes on their website. So if your ever wanting to try a new meal, just grocery shop and follow the steps online :)

Love this!

Brody's certificate omg 😭 he is literally your child I love it

I also have to eat dessert every night! I try to cut down but its so hard lol. I love the Yasso ice cream bars though. You should try them if you haven't yet!

Nespresso coffee does have more caffeine than my cups did. I have to order the half caf pods and it’s much better!

My Trader Joe’s is an hour away too and me and my fam stock up when we go!!

Love this video 🥰

Sometimes we just have breakfast, snack a few hours later and then have lunch/dinner around 3-4. Then if we get hungry later we’ll try to just have some healthy snacks

What was the sauce you used on the gnocchi?
