Thanks!

Thanks!!

Some are made with milk. But you can buy the dairy free version. Nestlé’s cause their plant based chocolate chips.

That’s great what is your favorite way to use tofu?

Me too!!

I used a pastry bag with a larger tip. I made 3 "injections" in the bottom so you couldn't see them.

They turned out good, you can use any corn bread mix but the extra sugar from the agave will help them turn a nice brown color. I saw some peoples didn't have that nice traditional cover.

ha ha! Glad to find another corndog lover out there!

Yes, having to re-program yourself is very hard, especially when it comes to food. But if you take it slow one day at a time, I know you can do it!

@@SomethingBetterTogether Thank you ☺

You are very welcome! It is worth it to make the change! You will feel so much better!

Great! I hope you LOVE it!!

We eat them like breakfast sausage patties! We also add them to "sausage style" gravy. What do you meat "sliders"? I think of sliders as something that you eat on a bun like a burger.

@@SomethingBetterTogether Sausages are not patties.

Not to be argumentative, but used to eat sausage patties all the time growing up. You can buy breakfast links or patties at the grocery store. They use sausage patties on breakfast biscuit sandwiches.

Thanks so much! 😊 Glad you like them!

I am sorry that happened. I didn't even realize ALDI was in Australia. Thanks for watching!

Yay!! Thank you so much!

Does your husband have a serious medical condition? I have never heard of a doctor recommending such a diet. My recipes are for people who are just coming off of the standard American diet and want to eat a little healthier, they are for the beginner vegetarian or vegan or plant based, whatever you want to call it. It sounds like you are looking for something a little farther down the road. You could check into raw food recipes they are directly from the tree or ground or you could skip recipes all together and serve fruit salad for breakfast and vegetables for lunch. Would cooked beans be okay? They are somewhat processed.

@@SomethingBetterTogether we were vegans. The problem was we didn't stop processed oils, or pasta and breads or milk products. We thought plant based processed foods were healthy. We learned the hard way, science is showing vegans are dying at same rate as meat eaters because of eating those thing. A whole plant based diet, that DR. Greger talks about is best. Just having trouble finding recipes

I agree the Dr. Greger's daily dozen is probably the diet for optimal health. But most of the people I work with look at that and find it too hard or restrictive so I try to build a bridge by introducing those things slowly. Most doctors and dietitians agree that just getting people to eat 5-8 servings of vegetables or fruits everyday and add at least a cup of means will dramatically improve health even for meat eaters. The problem is a lot of people simple replace meats with processed fake meats and continue with their standard American junk food diet. I do use those things but sparingly and find better ways to replace meat and add in all of the good stuff. In several studies, including Dan Buettner's Blue Zone Study, he found that Seventh-day Adventists in America live 7 - 10 years longer than average Americans because of their health practices while still eating canned veggie meats and only about half of them are vegetarian so it apparently works. They not only eat healthy though, they had several other factors that contribute to their longevity like community, having a purpose in life and also their weekly Sabbath. Have you looked at www.forksoverknives.com/recipes/ or plantbasedcookingshow.com/. another favorite of mine is jenniferskitchen.com/. Here is one last obvious one that you have probably already seen. nutritionfacts.org/recipes/ I hope you can find what you are looking for!

Great, thanks for sharing!

Honestly, that picture was from my cookbook photo shoot so I had a food stylist and photographer to help. When I make it at home it looks a little sloppy when I cut it but, it tastes fantastic!!

Sorry your muffins didn’t turn out some muffins have a thicker batter than others. Here is my banana muffin recipe it is really easy and has a nice thick batter.

Yes they are chocolate brownies.

@@SomethingBetterTogether I thought we were supposed to use carob as a substitute.

They are vegan brownies as a substitute for regular brownies, no dairy or eggs. I was not trying to substitute the chocolate but your could make a homemade carob brownie. Maybe I will make that recipe coming up.

@@SomethingBetterTogetherIsn’t chocolate among one of the foods we’re told in the health message to avoid?

I guess the SOP is irrelevant today.

Thanks! I do it this way all of the time!

I think it is a preference. I am just not a fan of the spongy texture.

Sorry about that, I forgot, I just added them to the description. I hope you and your family LOVE them like we do!

Sorry about that, I accidentally cut that in the edit, I used almond milk and it worked great! Thanks for watching!

Thanks, I’ll give that a try!

Thanks!

Awesome! Thank you!

Yes! Walnuts are the best!

I have never tried, but I don't know why it would not work. They may be a little heavier and calorie dense because almonds and coconuts have more fat that other flours.

@@SomethingBetterTogether can you make it to c I don't know to use those flour

I don’t understand what you are asking for.

@@SomethingBetterTogether can you make pancakes with those flour to c if it works.i never use those flours before. Plus Im not a pancake expert I now learning to use different flour.

What is the c you are referring to? Pancakes are one of the easiest things to make. If you are gluten free you can use a gluten free flour blend.

Sorry, I must have forgotten Scrambled Tofu Seasoning 2 cups nutritional yeast flakes 1 1/2 cups Chicken Style Seasoning (I use McKays) 2 3/4 tablespoons onion powder 2 3/4 tablespoons salt 2 teaspoons turmeric 1 Mix all ingredients in an airtight container. 2 Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of prepared seasoning mix to two packages (14-ounces) of tofu; cook according to the directions for Scrambled tofu. Makes 8 recipes of Scrambled Tofu.

Thank you so much! @@SomethingBetterTogether

Hi @dallissh2088 I am sorry you are feeling overwhelmed you have a couple of really good options when it comes to vegetarian "chicken" bouillon. In my tofu egg salad I use McKays Chicken Style Seasoning which is a powder. I tried to leave a link but it didn't work. Also Better Than Bouillon has a no chicken broth, it is found in most grocery stores near the soups. Every little bit you do gets you closer to your goals!! Thanks for watching!

Aren't all crops grown on ex forest land?

No, you drain off the water and cook out most of the water. You can boil tofu, but I always use fresh water.

What does pouring hot water on your tofu do?

@@SomethingBetterTogetherit remove the slimy coat it has, sometimes the tofu water could make the tofu has slimy layer.

Interesting! I have never noticed a slimy coat on my tofu. Do you think it is the brand?

@@SomethingBetterTogether well, if you always use your tofu right after you buy it you won't notice because it still fresh. But if you store it and you use it for next day you might notice it.

What is real food?

u probably think tofu is food created for vegan, its not 😂

Tofu is food created for PEOPLE!

So curdled beans (that's what tofu is) isn't real food, but you probably think cheese, yoghurt, bacon etc.. (which requires more processing) is real food 😂 damn I feel sorry for your brain cells, they must be working over time😂 FYI tofu is an Asian cuisine and is roughly 2,000-years-old.

What's the issue?

Really!? what does that have to do with pressing tofu?

I do like silken tofu! I just don't like the "soft" refrigerated kind. I find it to soft and watery, mushy., I like the Mori-nu band silken tofu that comes in a aseptic package and I can store it in the pantry. It's good for more than 6 months and I can always have it on hand. Nut I would not be opposed to trying some of your recipes, maybe you could change my mind!!

@@SomethingBetterTogether if you like Chinese cuisine try mapu Tofu. Maybe you already know Yeoung Man Cooking, you can find a recipe on his channel.

I had not heard of him! I will give it a try!

You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!!

HaHa I could try, but Sugar Snap peas are hard to buy. Aldi's produce is usually good, but especially out of season produce goes bad more quickly. I don't typically buy produce as Costco I don't usually need as much as they make you buy and it is usually more expensive than at Meijer where I do most of my shopping.

Thanks for the clarification, but I do boil mine in this recipe. If I don’t it is gummy in the middle. When I make stakes or smaller sizes I do simmer but probably somewhere between a perfect simmer and a rolling boil. I have never checked the temperature.

Sounds great!

We don't have a sprouts around here!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching. I tend to use the two terms interchangeably when I chose a vegan diet the term plant-based didn't even exist. It wasn't until Forks Over Knives came out many years later that people started using the term plant-based. I choose my lifestyle mainly for health reasons but I do love the animals also.

Thanks, you should give it a try! It really is good!

Except there are people on both sides that say the other causes cancer. There are many people thriving eating fully carnivore. So perhaps people should just eat what they want without worrying about what others do.

Thanks for watching! It is sad to see so many people's health suffering because of diet.

It's true that both meat-eating and vegetarian diets can be exposed to carcinogens (cancer-causing agents). That's simply the world we live in. However, there's a wealth of research demonstrating that a plant-based diet can help prevent and even reverse many lifestyle diseases. While a carnivore diet may be high in protein, it often lacks essential nutrients and can be very high in unhealthy fats and cholesterol. I believe everyone has the right to choose their diet. My aim is to simply help those who are interested in making a change and educate others who may not be aware of the potential benefits of a plant-based diet, such as improved well-being and longevity. Ultimately, it's a personal decision.

Thanks, I will keep that in mind!!

Thank you, I will

It’s true! Changing from what you have always eaten this hard. But it can be done if you do it a little bit at a time.
