Eating whole raw which i personally do little of.. lets your body break down the nutrients naturally.. cooking does the breakdown which in turn does not let the body do its job n very little gets absorbed hence more waste
I think they may not know what nutrients are exactly. Because all food has nutrients regardless of how good it is for you. And many act like if you'll bake dough and vegetables in a shape of pizza they indeed evaporate.
Any cutting of fruits and vegetables breaks cells therefore causes some nutrients to be lost, and the smaller the pieces cut, the more nutrients are lost, but regardless, it's not enough to warrant never cutting foods in any way. Pretty much the same concepts as heating and freezing foods.
I’m autistic and this is the way I can eat veggies. And still only some “safe” veggies: carrots, celery, onion, garlic, zucchini. Anything else I will vomit up. Hiding veggies gives me any nutrition, which is better than none!
They misunderstood a concern some people had about smoothies back in the day. Their concerns were about oxidation and rapid sugar absorption due to broken fiber. It popularized by discussions contrasting smoothies with whole fruit, but experts largely agree blending preserves most nutrients, just changing their form for easier digestion, though consuming immediately minimizes minor oxidation.
Not true, you break down fiber it decreases its ability to lower carbohydrate value. In other words, keep your food whole and for each ground fiber you drop a gram of carbohydrate. Don’t believe me look at the bottle of juice.

…so does chewing vegetables also destroy the nutrients? 😂
Cleary – if you can't see the veggies, they poof and disappear!
..if that only counted for sweet treats, too 😂
Thats a new lie about food loosing their nutrients.
If blending destroys nutrients…. what does chewing really well do??? We supposed to swallow food whole???
Not very aesthetic though…
It's full of nutrients but without any of the texture. Definitely a 'sometimes' thing
As someone who hates the texture of most vegetables, this seems exactly what I need.
Amazing Thank you
👏 👏 👏
As someone who doesn't like the texture of a lot of vegetables, hard agree
so confused as to how people think that blending foods ruins their nutrition as if their teeth and digestive system doesn't do the same damn thing.
however it is hilarious to me to imagine these people desperately trying to deep throat whole vegetables lmao

People are stupid
What do people think your stomach does to food? Massage it?
looks great
Then smoothies wouldn’t be a thing.
I think people are mistaking blending with juicing.
Juicing is useless, blending is fine
Tomatoes are not vegetables

Oh nice! I’ll do that 😃❤️🙏🏻
Vegetables actually interfere with nutrient absorption
I think your profile name is totally off.
"Do you think they evaporate out of the blender?" I'm going to use that line one day lol
If you eat them raw you get all the fiber
Where do they think the nutrients go? What do they think nutrients ARE?

Ooooo I bet you could blend in a can of beans in there to add some extra protein.
This is not juicing, but blending. Great recipe, use of veges. I’m doing it tonight. Thanku!! ❤

Mfs thinking “whole foods” means they can’t chew 💀
You're soo pretty🥺🥺
… then do they swallow their veggies whole? Its basically just prechewed. People are so silly sometimes..
Thank you for including the freezablitity! I'm currently looking for freezer friendly food! Not everyone includes the freezability !
This looks so good!
Incorrect the fiber does not remain intact. Blending rruncts the fibers and reduces there effectiveness. The rest of what you said is correct though
Just blend the pasta as well, you're welcome
People who complain about blending veggies need to stop making perfection the thief of success
It’s not the blending … it’s the heating.
Dang, that looks amazing!!

That doesn't even make the tiniest little bit of sense. Why would changing the texture of an already cooked food delete nutrients?
Looks so delicious thank you 😊❤

not true about blending… mastication is the proper way to eat all food.
Wow delicious!! 🤤 ❤
Please what was the cheese?
This probably won't happen, but could the recipe still work without the feta, or is there an alternative to cheese in this recipe ?
