welcome to rhoades24eva i'm Terri
and if those are some of the questions
that you've been asking
then in today's video i'm going to
answer those questions and more
about what are the foods that you can
eat on the daniel fast
and these are the most commonly asked
questions
and if you haven't seen any of my daniel
fast videos before that's okay
i have an entire playlist which i'll
link above in the cards and i'll also
put them in the description box down
below
with a free daniel fast food list pdf so
that way
you can know exactly how to do the
daniel fast so if you've been wondering
how do you start the daniel fast
that pdf is going to go through all of
the things that you need
to be successful on the daniel fast in
terms of preparation
you know where in the bible do you
actually find information about the
daniel fast because that's one of the
questions that people generally ask
is is the daniel fass biblical and so in
that
free food list pdf what you'll notice
i'll show you the two verses in daniel
that alludes specifically to the daniel
fast itself and so
like i said i'll make sure that is in
the description box down below as well
now if you're looking for ideas for
daniel fast meals
don't worry i got you i've made tons of
videos
with daniel fast recipes and these
daniel fast recipes that i've made are
all
budget friendly so what happens is that
you use the same ingredients and you
make several different meals that are
delicious
and that you will be able to eat for
those 21 days
and i really believe that the daniel
fast recipes that i've made
are ones that you will incorporate into
your diet even after
you finish the daniel fast so let's jump
in
and take a look at some of these
questions that you've been asking about
the daniel fast and what you'll notice
is that
if i answer the question also give you
an alternative
so that way if you're like well i really
like for instance you know i really like
to use sweeteners in my tea
and can i have honey on the daniel fast
and i'm gonna tell you
honestly the answer is no honey is not
allowed on the daniel fast
but if you're someone who needs a
sweetener the alternative
is to use dates because dates are
obviously a fruit
and they are sweet so that's something
that you can put in
your food to add as a sweetener to the
daniel fast but in the daniel fast the
only sweetener you can really use
um are sweeteners that come in the form
of fruits and so
you know if you're someone who likes
smoothies and you've been wondering can
you have smoothies on the daniel fast
yes you absolutely can and so i'm going
to
talk to you specifically about like well
what are some items that you could
you know put in your smoothies and i've
definitely done videos before
with daniel fast breakfast recipes and
so i'll make sure that's also linked in
the description box i have an entire
video where i show you how to make these
delicious daniel fast breakfast recipes
and i've made two
videos with some of my favorite items
seen on the daniel fast because
i don't know about you but i don't want
to eat oatmeal every single day and i
don't want to eat smoothies every single
day
so i've gone through and i've shown you
how to make an alternative
to oatmeal and i've also shown you how
to make uh pancakes that are daniel fast
friendly so i give you tons and tons of
options
for how you can have um you know some
delicious meals as you're going through
your daniel fast
because honestly when you're going
through daniel fast you really just want
to concentrate on
developing your relationship with god
and so you don't want you know your
concerns about food
to be a deterrent to you spending time
working on your relationship with god
so let's take a look at these questions
one by one um about
what foods can you have on the daniel
fass
so one of the questions that i normally
get is can you have almond milk on the
daniel fast
absolutely yes you can have almond milk
on the daniel fast
but there is a warning with that if
you're going to be buying
the almond milk from the store you have
to be extremely careful
because they have all of these additives
that are not daniel fast friendly
so what i generally do on the daniel
fast is that i make my own
almond milk at home and i will insert a
clip
for you to show you exactly how you make
almond milk at home so just stay tuned
that's coming right up for you
so to make homemade almond milk all you
will need is
a cup because you need to measure one
cup
of your almonds you will need a nut milk
bag
and you'll need some raw almonds and so
what i'm going to do is i'm going to
turn this over
so that you can see that the only
ingredient in this particular package
is almonds which means that it is daniel
fast friendly so you can see here
it says ingredient almonds and that's it
so these are some raw options that i
picked up as you can tell at costco
you'll also need a
mason jar you'll need some water
and a high speed blender and if you
watch any of my other daniel fast videos
you know that i use a ninja but if you
have a vitamix or just a regular blender
as long as it's powerful that will work
as well so all you're going to do is
you're going to take
one cup of your raw almonds and you're
just going to pour it directly into your
mason jar
so really simple
then all you're going to do is then take
your water
and you're going to pour your water
right on top so obviously you can see i
have this in my sink guys because i
don't want to make a mess
so all you're going to do is just pour
your water right on top of your almonds
and just fill it all the way up and then
all you're going to do is you're going
to cover this and leave it in the
refrigerator
overnight and then the next day i'll
show you what you do
next so the next day all you're going to
do is just take
your almonds and you're going to pour
all of the water off so basically you're
just going to pour that into a fine mesh
strainer
or colander and then what you'll do next
is that you'll just
rinse this off once you rinse this off
you will pour
these rinsed off almonds right into your
ninja or your vitamix or any other high
speed blender
and then you will add about three cups
of cold
water once you add your three cups of
cold water then you're gonna blend that
on high
for a minute once you're done blending
that on high all you're going to do is
then you're going to pour it
right into your nut milk bag and you're
going to strain that out
if you don't like almond milk and you're
allergic to almonds make cashew milk
it's also very easy
just like how you would make almond milk
just slight differences
um you can also make hemp milk which is
another alternative and i've made a
video
before on how to make hemp milk and i'll
put that in the description box if
you're interested and it's so delicious
so easy you can make it right at home
you can also make coconut milk at home
also extremely easy so again you can
have
all of these milk alternatives if you
make them yourself at home
because you know that there are no added
preservatives or any chemicals
that are not daniel fast friendly so
that's the first question that i
normally get related to beverages
another question i get all the time is
can i have coffee on the daniel fast and
coffee
is not allowed on the daniel fast
because it's heavily processed
and so with the daniel fast obviously
we're avoiding things that are processed
and also
it's filled with caffeine so if you're
someone who loves
your coffee every single day one of the
things i would suggest especially if
you're going to do the daniel fast is
that
you start a few days before with weaning
yourself off of the coffee and making
sure you're drinking
lots of water because that way it will
help you if you're going to deal with
some of those withdrawal symptoms
that come with drinking coffee can you
have
tea on the daniel fast the answer to
that
simply is no and the reason for that is
because of what it says in daniel 1
verses 12
where it said specifically they had
vegetables and
water so truthfully the only beverage on
the daniel tea
the daniel tea the only beverage on the
daniel fast
is water i understand that some people
are going to make
smoothies you know with fruits and
vegetables and so
that's the area that's a little bit
different because you're going to be
using those as a
meal so that doesn't constitute
something that you're having as a
beverage so
while tea isn't necessarily allowed on
the daniel fast
if you were to say make you know
smoothie with fruits and different
vegetables and you're like well that's
also a beverage
that's a little bit different because
you're having that as a meal so
tea is not allowed on the daniel fast
and again that's because when you read
daniel 1 verses 12 it says specifically
they asked to be tested only with
vegetables and water
and so what they've looked at is in the
old translation
you know where you see vegetables it
normally says pulse and so pulse
when they talk about pulse means
plant-based items and so this is why
the daniel fast as i've described it is
not just all vegetables but it includes
plant-based food items so it's really
almost like you would say a vegan uh
diet
now let's jump in and answer some more
questions related to the daniel fast
another question is can i eat boiled
eggs on the daniel fast
so as i've said before the daniel fast
is plant-based
so no no boiled eggs on the daniel fast
similarly for the question about whether
or not you can eat fish on the daniel
fast no fish is allowed on the daniel
fast so strictly a plant-based
diet now in terms of if you're someone
like me
who you know you maybe are going to make
pancakes or breakfast the alternative to
that is you could use
unsweetened applesauce or you could use
um
you know flaxseed ground meal as an
alternative and so that will serve as
like a thickener where you would have
eggs and one of the things you'll notice
when i make my daniel fast pancake is
that i actually use flaxseed
um as part of that recipe so if you're
someone who likes pancakes and you're
like well how are you gonna make
pancakes and
you're not gonna have any eggs well when
you check out that recipe
you'll see that i use flax seeds as an
alternative
for eggs so that's something to keep in
mind so
completely plant-based diet and
plant-based way of eating so
there is no fish there is no um eggs or
any meat at all so i hope that answers
your question about you know whether or
not you could have
eggs whether it's boiled eggs fried eggs
or what have you
so you know if you're someone who loves
to eat eggs every day or as part of your
weekly
breakfast regimen now you're probably
asking well what can i have for
breakfast and so
as i've said before i've made several uh
videos about what you can have for
breakfast besides just oatmeal
and so you know you can have smoothies
and there are different ways that you
can
put different fruits and vegetables
together to create delicious smoothies
that are also
filling and are going to keep you
feeling full throughout the day and in
those videos i explained specifically
different items that i added in those
smoothies to make sure that you would
stay
full throughout the day as you're
consuming them now
also when you're thinking about you know
what you can eat for breakfast
another question that normally comes
with that is is peanut butter allowed on
the daniel fast
and yes again peanut butter is allowed
but there is uh some exceptions so if
you're having natural peanut butter
that is fine so when you look at the
ingredient label the only ingredient
should say
peanuts but if it has any other
additives you know because you'll see
that often like sugar
or anything on the label that's not
daniel fast friendly so you want to make
sure that if you're having
any type of nut butter whether it's
peanut butter cashew butter or almond
butter
that if the only ingredient on the list
is that particular item so whether it's
just
all peanuts or all almonds anything
you know of that nature and also
sometimes you'll see that certain oils
are added
to your peanut butter so if it's not a
daniel fast approved
oil then again it's something that you
shouldn't be purchasing so
um in my free daniel fast guide i've
listed
all of the different items that you can
eat on the daniel fast and so
again that's a free pdf and it will be
in the description box down below so you
can check that out
and so you'll see that i use almond
butter often in a lot of my recipes
because
it's something i prefer to peanut butter
but you know what you like so
you just um make changes based on what
you know
you enjoy eating on a daily basis all
right let's
get to our next question so another
question i get all the time is what
snacks are allowed on the daniel fast
and you know people always ask me can i
eat popcorn on the daniel fast you know
can i eat trail mix on the daniel fast
and the answer to these questions again
are yes but there's
always a butt right so if you're making
popcorn at home
absolutely you can definitely have that
on the daniel fast or if you're buying
some type of popcorn
where there's no processing um in the
store then absolutely
you can do that and i've made a video
with daniel fast snack
showing you how i make you know
something i call daniel fast cookies and
also how i made popcorn at home
and believe me once you make your own
homemade popcorn
you're probably not going to want to buy
it at the store anymore because it's so
easy and it's delicious and you can
season it to your
liking so i've definitely made a video
before on how you can make daniel fast
popcorn
there are also lots of other options in
terms of daniel fast snack ideas that
you can make
you know whether it's using nut butter
with apples and
cinnamon or using celery with some type
of nut butter or even carrots and
homemade hummus so there are tons of
options in terms of daniel fast snacks
that you can incorporate
now as we are talking about you know
daniel fast snacks
another thing that i want to make sure
that i point out with this
is that when you are thinking about you
know buying things at the store like
trail mix
the problem with that is they may have a
ton of sugar
right so you can easily make your own
trail mix at home
and one of the things that i love to do
is i like to go to trader joe's and i'll
buy
all of the different single ingredient
items so for instance i'll buy a bag of
sunflower
seeds i'll buy a bag of the dried
strawberries and then i'll buy
you know raisins and i make sure i look
at the ingredient label
and that the only ingredient is you know
whether it's just raisins or whether
it's you know cashews or almonds or
macadamias whatever it is and there's no
added salt there's no added sugar
there's no added preservatives and so
when i come home
all i do is i just portion them out and
then i make my
own you know delicious trail mix and
there's a video where i talk about
how should you end your daniel fast and
i show you how i actually make
trail mix when i'm on the daniel fast
and so like i said i'll inc
include all of those videos of recipes
and
different daniel fast questions that you
may have in the description box
down below the next question i want to
answer
is can i eat chips or potatoes on the
daniel fast
so let's start with chips right so again
remember your chips are deep fried and
they're processed so
french fries and chips are not daniel
fast friendly
now if you enjoy chips one of the things
that you could actually do and that i
actually enjoy doing
is you could make your homemade chips
right so it's different from
the heavily processed deep fried chips
that you're buying in the store
but you could cut up for instance you
could cut some apple slices very thin
and you could bake those in the oven
until they dry out and crisp up a little
bit you could make zucchini just like
that in the oven at home
if you have an air fryer where you're
not adding any of these
oils that's another alternative to how
you can make your own like chips or you
know french fries or zucchini fries or
carrot fries
at home and that way you are able to
have that
as part of your daniel fast so if you
have an air fryer that's a great
alternative to getting these deep fried
foods and i'll link my favorite airfryer
in the description box down below as
well and none of this is sponsored guys
so anything that i link in the
description box or suggest
these are items that i have purchased
with my own money
and that i use at home and that i think
are you know great and i've used for
however many years so
again not sponsored at all now in terms
of potatoes
absolutely potatoes are plant-based so
you can have them on the daniel fast and
so whether it's a baked potato
you know or it's roasted potatoes and
whether it's white potato or sweet
potato they're both
daniel fast friendly and i've you know i
know that there is a video that i've
done about daniel fass potato recipes
where i've shown you
different ways of how you can make
potatoes for the daniel fast
i'm someone who also loves sushi and
there was a video where i
showed you how you could make a daniel
fast friendly sushi
and no there's no fish involved it was
just a vegetarian version
another question i get is can i eat rice
on the daniel fast
you absolutely can have brown rice on
the daniel fast you can also have quinoa
you can also have buckwheat you can also
have amaranth
so there are lots of different options
that are available to you in terms of
grains
that you can incorporate on your daniel
fast and all of these things
i have taken the time to make an entire
list of all of the food items that
you can eat while you're dealing while
you're going through your daniel fast
and i've linked that in the description
box down below
and on that food guide i've also added
some of my favorite daniel
fast recipes so that you can make them
at home
another question i get believe it or not
is can i have onions on the daniel fast
and again
of course you can it's plant-based so
whether it's onions or it's bell peppers
those things you can definitely have on
the daniel fast
so a great recipe idea when you're
thinking about
you know daniel fast meals is to for
instance you can
you know roast up some bell peppers you
can cook some quinoa
and then you can saute some onions and
some
you know uh beans and what you can do is
you can actually
you know then put that inside of the
roasted peppers and that's a great meal
that you can have at home and it's gonna
keep you feeling full long
and you know it's delicious so you have
so many different ways that you can get
creative with the daniel fast and
you know one of the things that i've
shown you before is how i made my uh
stir-fry quinoa recipe and so that's
something that you could also use to
make stuffed peppers as well
is just take that stir fried quinoa put
in your stuffed peppers and bake it
but in this example of stuffed peppers
there's no cheese allowed because cheese
is not allowed on the daniel fast
because this dairy it's from an animal
based
product so obviously no cheese allowed
on the daniel fast
all right now let's jump in and look at
our next question
which is do people lose weight on the
daniel fast
and i cannot guarantee that yes you will
lose weight
many people yes they often lose weight
on the daniel fast
that is not the reason why you would go
on a daniel fast obviously because
you're going on the daniel fast
to strengthen your relationship with god
but some people
as a result of changing from eating an
animal-based diet and eating lots of
junk food
to eating more plant-based item as a
result they generally lose a few pounds
on the daniel fast
especially depending on if you're doing
it for 10 days or 21 days
so it all really depends on your body
some people may or may not lose weight
at all because
you know if you're someone who maybe you
already ate plant-based before
and now you know maybe you're just
focusing on not eating processed foods
but you're replacing those plant-based
items with lots and lots of like rice
and lots of you know like whole wheat
tortillas or lots of quinoa
you may still be consuming an excess of
calories and so if you're consuming an
excess of calories
then you're not going to lose weight but
many people for the most part
generally lose weight while going
through the daniel fast so
that is one of the results of being on
the daniel fast but
i hope for you that at the end of your
daniel fast what happens is that you get
clarity about god's purpose and his will
for your life
and that if there was something that you
were praying for and asking god for
breakthrough
that through this process of the daniel
fast that will be revealed to you
i've gone through the daniel fast
several times and i can tell you
every time i've gone through the daniel
fast it's been a blessing
and so you know i think it's something
to you know continue it's a practice to
just continue to go to god in prayer to
develop your relationship with him get
stronger in your walk with him
and the daniel fast is something i
generally completed at the beginning of
every year
and then throughout the year you know
whenever something is going on and i
need direction from god
i think the most important thing i can
do is go to him in prayer and to seek
him
daily and fasting sometimes is part of
that process
and so i hope that as you are looking at
developing your relationship with god
and
getting stronger in your walk with him
that fasting is something you would
consider
and i just want to also remind you that
you know before you make any changes to
your diet or your lifestyle it's always
a really good idea to consult with your
healthcare provider
because if you're dealing with diabetes
if you're pregnant if you're taking any
medications
then you know changing your diet
drastically can have some adverse
effects and so you really want to make
sure that you're consulting with your
health care provider
before you say you know what i'm just
going to do this danielle fast and
that's
it well if you enjoyed this video i hope
that you'll give it a thumbs up
share with your friends and subscribe
for more awesome content just like this
but before you leave i want to remind
you you're only one
prayer away thank you so much for
watching and i'll see you in the next
one
bye take care
you
