“... but it’s not because she’s pregnant lol” Next video: “I lived homeless for a month“

Hey can I come over for lunch pls

That chicken pita is definitely being made tomorrow!!

When you buy an avocado, you actually buy a lottery ticket to win an avocado. 50/50 chance of getting a good one, I'd say. That Chicken Salad Avo Pita sounds fantastic, I'm trying that this week!

The look that Natalie gave after Matt joked about her not being pregnant is such a "wife" look OMG 😂😂

In order to get what you want, you must have the ability to control yourself ...✊

“...but it’s not because she’s pregnant” Next video: I try abstinence for 30 days

these look like some great recipes! can't wait to try some out! thanks dude!

"Natalie usually makes this for me because she is amazing in kitchen. And yes I'm contractually obligated to say that" 😂😂

Only you could make eating healthy look so amazing

Meanwhile in a parallel universe Moth D'Avella sticks to the minimalist gray shirt diet

"medium rare. You know what's maximum rare? A beautifully designed website." LMAO smooth transition

This guy is one of my favorite youtubers for a few reasons. He's not those douchey " THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO SUCEED" type of youtubers or the arrogant know it all type . He's just a guy who tells you what he's learned through his experiences, tries things out and lets you know what works for him and what doesn't and relays all information without any pressure or judgment and remains realistic throughout the entire process. I've learned a lot from you over the years Matt! Much love to you and enjoy your Holidays!

As Italian, you don't need a cooking thermometer. You will feel it when it's ready. Believe in your Italian soul, is like a Jedi power

This Thanksgiving I’m thankful for Matt D’Avella’s channel. His positive attitude, truly meaningful content and goofy humor make my life just a little bit more joyful. Thank you!

Yes, we want a video on thirty days of having vegan diet.

Hey Matt, my go to lunch is just chicken breast and veggies backed on a tray without additional oil but with a lot of spices and a side of rice. Simple and filling.

Eating veggie doesn’t mean eating only vegetables. It just means no meat. That opens to a world of other choices of food. I’m not veggie btw but I like to practice a bit huh

Where are the spices!! 😭 Healthy doesn't have to be boring

guy who wears the same shirt everyday for the last 17 years: I eat almost the same thing every day me: *surprised pikachu face*

if you want to reduce how much meat you eat, you can start with something easy like making falafel (out of chickpeas!!), or the same sandwich with avocado that Nat made, but with chickpeas. really easy and yum, 10/10 (yes i really like chickpeas)

There are not many people who have so unique and special ideas, you also have been such an inspiration for me to start my own channel, thank you Matt and never stop posting! 🥺🧸

I’m excited for a future 30 days vegan video. I know it’s not for everyone. I did it and then I never stopped.

Ironically, this topic could be the most controversial video on Matt’s channel. Food is one of those weird topics that people get super passionate about. Matt was very clear that his choices worked for him - and I respect that. I’ve been on a certain diet for 25+!years (not disclosing) and I would like to see his experiments with a plant-based diet - but that’s all I’ll say about that 😆

Could you do a 30 days vegan diet video?

My Food Philosophy "Eat more whole foods, eat less processed foods."

Off topic but after a year of watching you, I'm slowly slowly becoming a minimalist. Thank you so much. You inspire me alot.

Healthy eating improves my productivity so much! 🥦

Why would he released this content the day before thanksgiving?? Matt is truly an evil man. He knows nobody eats healthy on thanksgiving.

Hey, Matt! i'm 13 y.o and I'm russian schoolboy. watching your videos is a nice way to learn some new words! thank u!♥️🗽

Matt I freaking love your channel so so much. I appreciate your honesty and the reminder that everyone is different and you encourage to find what works for you. Also the realness that you’re not perfect and still go out to eat and things. It’s helped so much to take pressure off making small little lifestyle changes that have such an awesome lifetime effect. If you read this, just know I affirm that these videos you make have really helped me out and I appreciate you. Keep it up. And thank you.

I had a dream that Matt got The Rock on his podcast.

This is easily one of the most beautiful videos Matt has made. Absolutely stunning visuals.

Please, Matt, buy a big bag of oatmeal instead of buying it in a pre-dosed stupid little cup. That cup is made out of cardboard and plastic. It's not going to be recycled. It's going to end up in a landfill. I'm sure you understand.

There’s ac no point having smoothies. The oxidisation of the fruit and veg after 30 mins decreases the nutritional density of these foods. Sugar increases. Just eat the fruit and veg and you’ll find it’ll be much better for your body - or read up on this and just see what you make of it, but I too was super surprised and fascinated by this x

Do something today that your future self will thank you for. 💪

I literally went out and bought chicken, avocados, yogurt and pita just to try that sandwich. Looks delicious

Love the simplicity here: I am going to stuff one of three things in a pita. So good. An idea to play with: meat can be used as a kind of spice to flavor more veg-heavy meals too. It doesn't take much meat for the flavor of it to infuse everything.

If you're thinking of experimenting with veganism, I recommend not relying on processed fake meat, egg, and dairy products (not that I'd expect you to). Personally I avoid tofu as well because I believe it to be unhealthy. The best way to do veganism is to get excited about the sheer number of different fruits, vegetables, grains, pulses, nuts and seeds, herbs and spices that there are available to you.

Last time I was this early Matt wasn't even a minimalist

Matt: I eat this too stay healthy Me: waiting for my KFC order

It will be great a Collab with pick up Limes for the vegan experiment. I'm just saying...

Set forth the problem: "Creating a consistent, healthy, eating habit can be a challenge" -Matt D'Avella, potential contestant for understatement of the year =P "That's why I create structure by cycling through the same meals almost everyday, instead of reinventing what I eat each day" -gets right to the solution/point of why we're watching -next point makes it clear he's aware some people's attn could be waning as they self-edit in real time and quickly jumps into that thought process for them to keep them engaged/interested and in suspense of learning what they don't know, which could be the key to some value 4 the future them! "I stick with the basics that I love. Don't worry though it's not nearly as boring as it sounds... OK, maybe it is..." -self deprecating humor without being hard or harsh and might also be a bit of a poke at the standard way that almost all solutions try to do to pre-answer their objections (I forget the sales term for this) Caveats given as defense to criticisms and to prevent being overly pointed/aggressive or on-the-offense or offensive to his audience, priming them to be receptive and at ease to put the defenses down and just be in the moment for the rest of the video, I love it! wish we would create a single word to express the idea... I'll get back with a suggestion on buildagoset.com at some point next year... Credit given/commercial now permissible, even if a tad forced... sprinkle on more humor (^.^), hehe =D telling you with pre-summary, what he's going to tell you Solid Zig Ziglar idea... begin true topic content Chicken, sardines, chicken, salmon, chicken, tuna, beef = weekly structure yet with variety Green Smoothies FTW!!! batching... even more so Moving for living =p Plant Protein 4 gut reasons... makes good sense my man I need to increase my hi-cal snack friction and reduce my health friction... seaweed, YEESSH! Nuts are my new go-to gift... quinoa/rice and veggies... sides of champions! seriously... throw out some credit, woot! Tim Ferriss be awesome! Love sauteed kale! I grow some that does not bunch and frill at the edges to much for easy cleaning and it prevents a lot of the spiderwebs the other varieties tend to accumulate on their undersides... and it is SO easy to grow... it self seeds as long as you don't kill it in harvesting, it is very winter hardy... Kale is just awesome and easy and JUST DO IT! wow transition to ad/commercial lol... that truly made me laugh... ahhh good stuff! website with contact form... cool! now I know how to reach you... tyty... request sent, hope to add value to you and spread your value to others Glad to be heard =p ty for another well crafted gift to the web!

Eating the fruit is far more healthier than drinking it.

Yes, to less meat and hopefully becoming vegan! I’ve been vegan for 1 year and counting :)

That transition was flawless...

hey!! the raw spinach in your smoothie actually has oxalic acid which doesnt allow your body to absorb calcium and iron!! heat it in anyway so that you can absorb higher levels of vitamins A and E, protein, fiber, zinc, thiamin, calcium, and iron

Eating healthy is difficult when I make honey glazed ham on a random Friday. That's why I enjoy a 5/2 fast

This is the best KZfaq channel that I've come across accidentally, Bro you've added value to my life. I'm not buttering you This is the truth I've learnt many things from you Thank you so much Matt bro

I am really impressed that you could give us that ad segway at 8:12 with a straight face!

Smoothie for my own reference: - Spinach - Two apples - One orange - Two bananas -

0. Intermittent fasting 1. Lunch 2. Green smoothie 3. LoCal snacks 4. Protein Shake 5. Dinner Live. Try. Repeat.

yes please do 30 days vegan!!

I love how you incorporated the ad in this video. It was enough for people to know what the sponsor is and what they do without boring the audience. The joke to go with it was funny too. Well done.

"Sometimes I snack on oatmeal" Damn Matt thats so bad shame on you

Really felt Matt would only eat 3 foods total

I’d love to see you try doing a whole foods plant-based diet for 30 days, you’re already halfway there with the snacks, protein shake, and not as much use of oil!

Pro tip: change up the veggies/fruits for your smoothies, to make sure you vary the fibre sources. That helps maintain a healthy gut microbiota, since the microbes are very specific to each type of fibre. If you constantly eat the same fibre sources (or same foods in general), you won't promote the growth of a diverse range of microbes, which in the end is detrimental to your digestion. So for instance, swap the spinach for kale, the apple for a pear etc. It is recommended to eat at least 30 different fibre sources throughout a week for optimal digestion :)

Fasting is the thing that finally broke my spiral of unhealthy living. I can’t recommend it enough. I’ve dropped 22 pounds since August and my health has improved so much. My “dieting” is still not the best, but the fasting is definitely the factor that keeps me on track and away from binging ☺️

8:00 “Bobs your uncle” 🤣 Anyone else catch that

I would strongly recommend the Impossible Burger ground. I've been making smash burgers and meatball subs with it and am surprised with how great they've turned out.

your thumbnails are literally so minimalistic and professional i luv it

My secret in a healthy diet are lentils. The little suckers should be mandatory in everyones diet in my opinion but especially if you try limiting you meat consumption.

Since there are so many diets that work it is often easier to define a good diet by what/how _not_ to eat!

Cutting down on meat is such a good thing!! So proud of you for doing what you can!

90% of people are trying to lose weight and/or keep their weight down. Generally speaking, you should limit the number of calories you drink. There's no reason to make smoothies of any kind. Just eat the stuff in its whole form.

Matt as a vegan I hereby challenge u to go vegan for a month

It’s going to be hard, but hard does not mean impossible. 🙏

Hi, Goatis has made a video about you, What do you think?

I often take a water tumbler with me when I go to friends/families houses. I don’t have to settle for what they have (which is usually just sodas etc).

I love meat and cheese so much, but am also lactose intolerant. I recently found out I am allergic to chicken, which is why I've been slowly avoiding a lot of meat in general. In March I went rogue and just went vegan, I don't not feeling bloated/low-level sick all the time. Not everyone is lactose intolerance and allergic to chicken (haha even though I wish I wasn't) but damn, going vegan has been the best thing. It was largely my perception of what a "normal vegan diet" was that kept me from doing it sooner, but deff give it a shot if dairy is making you sick regularly. Daiya, Violife, and Miyoko's have good subs for cheese.

30 days vegan, let's go Matt!

The green juice habit has become our rock, too. For those curious at 4:10 that's a Vitamix 5200 👍

Me: eating a whole ass pumpkin pie at 2am. “Hmm interesting...”

Woah better be careful, can’t get too unhealthy with that trail mix

That square space plug was incredible. Maximum rare

Glad to hear you’re going to try less meat! A great replacement for that delicious looking pita would be jackfruit & cashew based Greek yogurt 😋😋😋

Lifechanging tip alert. Take your green juice to the next level (and keep it fresher, longer) with two simple ingredients: Lemon and ginger 💚

i think u should totally try going vegan for a month or smth to see how that helps achieve your goals

Hello Matt. First of all thank you for beeing and inspiration for me and i m sure for many other people too. As a vegetarian for almost year and a half i would like to suggest you to reduce your meet meals by half. I think beeing a minimalist/essencialist is lifestyle so I commit that thought to everything in my life. If you reduce your meet meals you would be saving many gallons of water, you would be reducing the amount of animals killed and be a lot healthier. That is just my way of thinking. Thank you so much for the influence you have on my life, Salvador

If you haven’t checked out Pick Up Limes on KZfaq yet, she would be a great source of inspiration for more plant based meals 👍 And she’s a registered dietician 🌈

Ive been looking for a way to cook my chicken with 0 oil and not have it baked because my oven broke and legit never thought i was going to be getting my recipes from lol you channel is the absolute best

The diet lacks beer at the end of a hard work day:) Beautiful as always Matt😎👍

I’ve been considering reducing animal products to 1-2/week for health reasons. Or even just meatless. Not sure yet!

Not sure if you had shared it in the past, but I've always wondered what was in the smoothie, so thanks for sharing! I'm going to try that out, and also the avocado chicken salad. Yum!

Great job 🙏🏻 your channel is the best

Rice is the most easy thing to cook. In Brazil is the first recipe that we learn.

That pitta looks great, but it’s screaming out for some hot sauce!

That's super useful. I struggle so much with how much of my time is spent in the kitchen/meal planning/groceries/etc. Thanks for this!

Great video! I need to simplify my diet. Thank you for the inspo! xxx

2020: Literally an apocalypse happening Matt: Just vibin' cooking his food

It doesn't look like you consume anywhere near enough calories to maintain your body weight here?

Hey Matt! I thought I had a problem with whey protein for the longest time until I found out I actually wasn't responding well to a filler ingredient they use in most whey proteins called "Soy Lecithin". JOCKO makes a great grass-fed whey protein without it that I can drink with no issues! Thought I would share!

So close to 3 mill congrats keep it going

Matt is the biggest fraud. He thinks he can trick us into believing that "eating for two" was a joke? Yeh ok. I'll be looking forward to the "I tried fatherhood for 30 days" video.

Me: ** Munching on Oreos ** : That awkward moment when you realize other people consider "trail mix" to be a good snack...

i´ve been so much bussy like for 2-3 month so i stoped watching youtube, man i missed mat´s videos, i forgot how good they are

Hey Matt, I was listening to Ezra Klein talking to someone and he mentioned that if you want to decrease suffering when eating animals, on the whole, simply switching to always eating beef and not chicken cuts out a lot of it. We can eat an entire chicken in a night, but to eat an entire cow can take months! 1 animal vs many many dozens. Just something to think about.

Try doing "Meatless Monday." My partner and I have done this and it is amazing how creative Monday becomes.
