25. WHAT I EAT IN A DAY | vegan & gluten-free

[@rubeanadavis-harris4784]

I'm a new subbie and also a new vegan 2 months. I have been crash watching all your videos. I love them all!!!

[@komalverma178]

soak your lentils for half an hour before cooking...they 'll taste way better

[@Simplyquinoa]

+komal singh will try that next time!

[@newveganontheblockmark7115]

Simply Quinoa What is a Physic 57 class (cardio + weights???)...your recipes are not too complicated for a not -too-good cook like me...thanks for the inspiration

[@newveganontheblockmark7115]

Simply Quinoa Can you tell me if there is real Tequila in your ``Tequila-style lime sauce`` ???

[@Simplyquinoa]

It's a barre type class!

[@jamiecee4960]

I don't soak mine. I think they are great though. :) I do soak other beans.

[@dpmc28]

when I saw the photo of the video I was like: Son arepas??? i'm Colombiana so I eat arepas all the time because it's a national thing in Colombia and Venezuela. Glad to see you cook something so close to my heart and it is vegan. AWESOME💚 ps: the dough was just a little but dry but im sure they were tasty. I can give you some recipes to do a lot of colombian types of arepas.

[@Vanessa-bk4nv]

Daniela ManriqueC I'm also Colombiana and thought the same thing about the dough. My mom always taught me to use hot water as well, make them about half inch thick, and we don't use much oil for frying. Maybe 1 tsp to coat the pan, so they're not greasy. Love arepas & was so happy and surprised to see them featured 💕

[@trishmartins9100]

Your videos are so well done and a pleasure to watch:) Super helpful as well!

[@Simplyquinoa]

+Trish Martins thank you so much! That's really nice of you 😊 glad you find them helpful! xx

[@danasimmons8705]

I am new to your Channel I will definitely try them out and watching your channel you totally have inspired me to change my lifestyle in the way I eat you are always so detailed and how you prepare your meals I've been trying your recipes out for a full week now and since I have been doing that I'm starting to feel better I have Lupus and I'm trying to overturn it I've done some research and found out going vegan will help me out a whole lot

[@Simplyquinoa]

You are seriously AMAZING! Thank you so much for writing and I'm thrilled that you've been following along and enjoying the recipes. I know that eating plant-based, with tons of real foods, will do wonders for your body! Keep me posted on how you're doing with everything ❤️❤️

[@rileyoconnor3671]

I really love watching your videos Alyssa! Fantastic!

[@mathewroy8972]

First vegan what i eat in a day where the person isn't afraid of oil *shocked*

[@idontlikegoats]

Lauren Toyota isnt either lol

[@noemi915]

Mathew Roy she's not fully vegan she said she's a gluten free dairy vegetarian. She just eats more plant based.

[@rittasdan]

Mathew Roy right?! It seems like everyone fears fats these days

[@rittasdan]

Really great and inspiring video! That acai / smoothie bowl looked so good!

[@annasaskia1]

This is such an informative, thorough review!

[@itssewxtra1713]

I am definitely going to give it a try! I am going back to the US to visit my mom and she gets a kick out of eating vegan when I cook for her. This is ideal! They do seem to have the service available to Minneapolis, but I was wondering, the Vegan box was $11.99 so how do I get $50 off that with your coupon? I want to thank you for this offer, I think you did an excellent job presenting the service as well. These meals look mouth watering!

[@jamiecee4960]

You kept showing lentil pasta. I had to order a box to try. They also had black bean pasta. I love both beans. So I hope I will like these. Your food always looks good and healthy.

[@Simplyquinoa]

+Jamie Crisp you're going to love it. Red lentil pasta is my fave!!

[@林佳娴]

I've just bought some matcha because of ur vids hahaha🤣now I make matcha latte every morning. It's so delicious!

[@Simplyquinoa]

+林佳娴 yay! Can't wait to hear how you like it!

[@ItsLilFergie]

That lunch looks so good! I love veggie and grain bowls!

[@abira2.0]

[@Simplyquinoa]

Thanks friend!! xo

[@shannonbeer287]

That dinner sounds amazing, I'll have to try it 😍

[@Simplyquinoa]

+Shannon Beer it was delish!!

[@oliviahakopuro2084]

Cauliflower in a smoothiebowl? A new must try 😊

[@Simplyquinoa]

+Olivia Hakopuro you gotta! Makes it so creamy and you can't taste it at all 😋

[@yesxiloveyouthemost]

Cooked or raw? :)

[@ChelseaGilson]

I love cauliflower in my smoothies! I use white beans a lot too

[@mattlogan6892]

any tips to film food more aesthetically?

[@DanceAgain19]

My little puertorrican heart thought the arepas in the thumbnail were tostones ☹️☹️ love arepas too, tho

[@Simplyquinoa]

+amanda perez ahh tostones are my fave! Gotta figure out how to make those without deep frying 😀

[@feliciasdiary2914]

everything looks amazing

[@Simplyquinoa]

+Felicia Mesadieu Wellness it was DELISH!!

[@kimberleenicole1]

[@lindacriscitello1891]

Hi Alyssa, Could you send me a link to where you bought your square grill pan for #25 What I eat in a day (grilling veggies for lentil dish)

[@EmilyTanica]

Was this the meal for two people or four? (Trying to gauge how much it comes with haha)

[@Noah4evaa]

where did you get your grill pan? thanks😘

[@Simplyquinoa]

I don't remember exactly, but it's a Le Creuset pan!

[@JohannaZee]

can you get the one delivery and then cancel?

[@athenaenergyshine7616]

Hi. Can you help with portion control. Such as how should it look on the plate the percentage of each one.

[@rittasdan]

athena energy Shine typically you want mostly carbs, some protein and fats. But that different for everyone. You have to find what works fornyou

[@DmsStudios]

What spices did you use for grilling the eggplant?

[@Simplyquinoa]

I'm not sure exactly what was in the packet, but I think it was cumin and coriander mostly :)

[@DmsStudios]

Simply Quinoa thanks!

[@LinetteArroyo]

That lentil salad 🤤

[@Simplyquinoa]

SOOO good!

[@mindoverbread1213]

Do you avoid bananas and why you use cauliflower?

[@katrhoads2741]

Fruitveganful Martenson Less sugar/calories and works just as well to make smoothies creamy.

[@Simplyquinoa]

I don't, I just like to have a low sugar option from time to time :) Plus, it's a great way to sneak in more veggies!

[@JohannaZee]

So cool, and nice.

[@amandafuschak271]

yum

[@Seph.ackerman]

Anyone knows a yt channel about food that is not trying to sell any sponsored stuff?

[@danahdana3624]

[@Sarah_Grant]

Sebastian Wintour happy pear

[@Seph.ackerman]

[@user-rm3iy4ye2l]

Avant Garde Vegan, Jess Beautician, Good Eatings and Sarah's Vegan Kitchen too!

[@aminatb3821]

plus Lauren Toyota, Healthy crazy cool, sweet potato soul!

[@aguilera1728]

what does matcha taste like and what are it's benefits?

[@SiosOrangeCore]

Vanessa Aguilera a little like green tea! its a very specific flavor, you either love or hate it. you can get a soy matcha latte at starbucks to try the flavor out before you buy an entire package of matcha :)

[@aguilera1728]

CACTUSROBBER! good to know! I've been tempted to buy it at my local health store because everyone uses it but I wasn't sure.

[@abira2.0]

and we have the same grill pan !!!! haha

[@cescaevan7829]

Actually!! Olive oil is not good for cooking cause it gets rancid quickly!! It's better as dressing or anything uncooked :) coconut oil is good for cooking cause it had a higher smoke point !!

[@CeCeTheStageRitch]

I had a really huge eggplant in my box....

[@Simplyquinoa]

I did too :) Was pretty great though because then I got another meal out of it!

[@ninaroberts6485]

Why do you use oil to cook ? I thought you followed a low fat plant based diet .

[@Simplyquinoa]

Nope! I would say I lean more towards a high fat low carb lifestyle most days :)

[@leosfriend5061]

regular carnivore lool any lions watching??😂😂😂

[@kellybeechen2271]

So pretty.

[@noemi915]

$50 dollars off???! Well how much is this box?? 😬

[@pamelaandrews190]

seems like alot of carbs. how can a diabetes, eat this way?

[@bernadettefresty4912]

why don't you eat bananas in your smoothie bowls? bananas are not bad for you

[@cheyennebowling1485]

bernadettefresty she says they give her bloating problems
