A Peek at My Plate (Morning, Noon and Night!)

read all about it

Hi Gang!

This week, I finally made the video that everyone’s been asking me to make.

It’s the answer to the number one question I get asked: “What do YOU eat, Kris?

So here’s a little show and tell, an up close and personal peek at MY eats!

In this video, you’ll see everything I made (and ate) for the day, which of course includes a boatload of green juice. Some of the delicious recipes can be found in Crazy Sexy Kitchen, while others are my go-to, everyday staples. All of the dishes are 100 percent plant-empowered, easy and quick. Hey, I filmed this on a spectacular fall day. You better believe I chose simple meals that would allow me to play in the autumn light and soak in the crimson.

I hope my little food tour inspires you to get creative in the kitchen. Remember, variety is the spice of life and the heart of a healthy diet. Every day brings new opportunities for fun and folly in the kitchen. Tomorrow, I’ll probably start my day with a green smoothie, then if I’m still hungry, I’ll make the hot Coconut and Mango Millet porridge from my cookbook. At lunch, I just might get a hankering for some hearty Crazy Sexy Bean Chili. Thankfully, I made and froze a big batch a few weeks ago. Defrost and a-go-go! And if I find myself in the middle of a snack attack, there are lots of recipes to choose from at KrisCarr.com and in Crazy Sexy Kitchen.

 

By the way, lately I’ve been obsessed with Brazil nuts (a great source of selenium, which helps boost metabolism and reduce inflammation). I toss a small handful in my smoothies and store them like dog treats (but for people) in my pockets.

Your Turn: If you have a question, leave a comment below. I’ll do my best to answer as many as possible. Or if you’ve got a plant-passionate dish, tip or trick to share, let us know in the comments section! We’d all love to know.

OK, press play.

Peace & cookin’,

    HI – for the video “What do YOU eat, Kris?” what would the calories/macro breakdown (Fats, Proteins, Carbs) be for that example?

    Hi Kris.
    I’m kicking myself because had I of known you were launching crazy sexy you I would of signed up in a heart beat .
    However just 3 weeks ago after watching you on the power hour with John and Ocean Robbins I signed up for plant pier and thriving
    Don’t get me wrong because I’m learning so much but I feel your program would be a great fit as it includes the whole mindset .
    Will I have to wait until next year to see this program again ?
    Thanks
    Kerry

    Kris,
    I have been omitting all flour and dairy products, gluten but your lunch included a wrap. Do you encourage grain products when trying to eat healthy and maintain ones weight? Also, do you have a suggested replacement for Greek Yogurt in recipes.

    I read your book a couple of years ago but I wasn’t ready to go plant based. In the meantime I ate a strict paleo diet and came to some interesting findings. When I eat grains and dairy I retain water. Lots of water. The dairy doesn’t matter going plant based but the grains do. Something has changed and I do not want to eat meat anymore. I recently tried going vegetarian and within a month I was up 5 lbs (water I’m sure). But I am afraid of gaining weight. I already have a few pounds to lose, I do not want to add to it. I’m at a loss as to what to do. Any ideas?

    Kris,
    My husband and I are seniors, he is in his early 70’s and has now got a really nasty flu. I don’t know what foods to give him to help his body recover, he is coughing a lot, sleeping a lot and has very low energy. It reminds me of last year when he had lymes and it took him 6 months to recover. I am looking at your recipes online and trying to decide what is best for him.
    Thanks for your amazing work!

    Thank you Kris, for sharing your Crazy Sexy Kitchen tips with us it’s a beautiful book so glad I bought it. You are a wonderful presenter.

  9. Linda says:

    Thank you Kris it was a great video! I have tried the 21 day cleans and was unable to finish all of it. It has definitely given me some good ideas to start slowly. I’m going to look at the cooking classes and really appreciate all the help you have given. I know this is a process and I am changing over time. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Hya Girl Wonder Kris ,
    I actually bought your book loooong ago, guess when it came out (see Christiane Northrup review), is there a revised version coming out? What about the cooking lessons..? I sure could use all of those.. so how can circle them’ vagons?
    Waiting for your usual embracing and sparkling reply!

    Kris, You’re awesome! Thanks so much for your willingness to share. You always inspire me.

  12. Penny Linson says:

    Hi Kris. I am so encouraged by your videos, your documentary and all your books (I have every single one of them!!!)
    My question or puzzlement is: Some people say to stay away from grains and some say to include them. I know Charlotte Gerson has all the cancer patients eating oatmeal every morning…. so it can’t be wrong, right? But why do some people say to stay off them? Just wondering. I love to make wild and brown rice stir fry with onions which is another possibly questionable activity – ha.

    What year is that cool truck

  14. Marshall says:

    This is great. I’ve been adding fresh ginger to a lot of fresh recipes. It helps with nausea, digestion and even cases of sea sickness. It’s on my plate morning noon and night 🙂

  15. Tami says:

    Hi Kriss , if one is in stage four cancer can they start out eating the way your video shows( a days worth of menu )or is there a specific way they should eat first before eating any cooked food.

  16. Cait says:

    Kris, I enjoy everything you have to offer the more I watch you! Thanks for letting your great personality shine! I’m still trying to find a balance though with raw foods. Sometimes I feel like: how can I spend less money while still being healthy? (I’m a college student)

  17. peggy garcia says:

    Oh my goodness…………….love, love, love your kitchen!!!! It looks almost identical to mine!!!! You have good taste !!!! lol

  18. Marcela says:

  19. Fran says:

    Kris- thank you so much for this! I don tknow how I missed it, being a fan of yours for years. But today I was searching for something to inspire and kick me in the you know what!! (I have so fallen off the healthy trail).
    Your bright, positive and beautiful energy coupled with the fabulous recipes you prepared on the video was exactly what I needed! THANK YOU! YOU REALLY ROCK!

  20. Deirdre says:

    I love this video, Kris! Thank you so much for giving us a peek at all the delicious meals that you eat. I’m a very visual person, so this video is very helpful. 🙂
