A 'Realistic' Vegan WHAT I EAT IN A DAY | Easy Vegan Meals

[@EdgyVeg]

Who thinks they are going to try the enchiladas, I swear they will change your life!

[@sunshinerainbowsnursery3500]

Thank you for sharing! I’m going to try them.

[@robertgallagher2226]

Yep, gonna try them this weekend 🙂

[@joanlynn1702]

Yay to Daiya! Definitely trying these and have all the ingredients too! I’m stoked

[@alicetvcker4799]

100% making this 😍

[@adrymxl]

The filling looks great, but honestly I'm crying in Mexican with that sauce. Actual chiles are very cheap in Latino supermarkets, and since you are not using much, it would be even cheaper for you. Please stop, my ancestors are sad. And white people are always apologizing with Italians when you break pasta or mispronounce something, but y'all never do when you do this to our recipes :'c

[@AskBobnFran]

We are in our 80's, plant-based, and feeling BETTER THAN EVER! We are all about healthy aging and appreciate this excellent video and your many others!

[@lydiamarr7601]

I’m soooo glad Daiya updated their cheese formula, the cutting board shreds are a million times better than the old formula of their cheese shreds!

[@seitanicgirl]

I actually prefer the original formula. Perhaps that's because they're what I'm used to? But I think it's great that to have so many options!

[@RyanThomasWoods]

So much better!!! The cheddar is my fave

[@m00nAlways0nMe]

They ruined them from the original cutting board collection. The first cutting board collection they came out with was perfect, then they had to mess with them for some reason, sigh.

[@amberhale123523454]

StruggleBean nooo I never got a chance to try it, they already switched up the formula? 😔 what cheese do you recommend, if any?

[@m00nAlways0nMe]

@@amberhale123523454 When I say they ruined it, I mostly mean that they made it even more oily. Taste-wise I think they're still okay, it's just you gotta be careful what you're using it for. Egg rolls? Don't do it, lol. BUT, I now recommend Violife to people assuming it's available. But if the Daiya cutting board is your only option, it's still an ok'er option than the rest.

I have been interested to become a vegan lately and your videos are so helpful. Love from U.K 💗

[@chrisforan6711]

I am so happy I found your Vegan bacon last week! My 11 yr old gave up meat in March and I'm a big meat eater! We love that your Canadian and you make vegan foods that link with making traditional meat foods. Daughter was missing bacon and had not loved faux meats. My next task is find jackfruit for enchiladas!

[@thatsalt1560]

You're a great parent to help your kid with this! When I was 16 I suddenly informed my mom I was vegetarian. I didn't think about how this complicated cooking for me. She agreed as long as I ate eggs and dairy too. Now I'm cooking for an entire family with different diets and preferences and I do understand that it wasn't easy for her. Also, what a brave little daughter you have!

[@SamElle]

OOO I would like to request more what I eat in a days!! I love your recipe videos of course but call me nosy, but I LOVE seeing what people at HAHA

[@lizcarr6329]

The new shreds are so much better lol they used to literally smell like feet and not melt and now they’re bomb 👌🏼 also a typical day of eating for me starts with coffee and some days I’ll have like homemade muffins or banana bread and some days I’ll have oatmeal or a smoothie instead. Lunch varies widely, I haven’t figured out exactly what I like to eat for lunch lol but sandwiches are good and soup, sometimes even smoothie bowls and stuff that’s not so heavy. Dinner can literally be anything but I personally love Thai curries, pizza, pasta, stir fry, stuff like that!

[@katselesnya]

I'm so glad Canada is finally getting the cutting board daiya! It's so much better than the original recipe

[@sherryberry6690]

Im amazed at how your quick enchiladas sauce looks like to the real traditional stuff. Thanks for the short cut. Keep up the good work love your recipes :)

[@RyanThomasWoods]

This enchilada sauce was next level and so easy I was shocked

[@HaydeLoop]

that is not traditional at all lmao

[@DramasArmy]

@@HaydeLoop Right. No cumin, where are the chiles? Not a jalapeno in sight.

[@dunkeyrumpus]

"A lot of people's 'What I Eat in a Day' aren't achievable." You nicely said they aren't honest lol Most of them are straight up ridiculous.

[@EbonieHyland]

Oh my, those enchiladas look amazing! I really need to start making my own hummus too 😋 Thanks Candice!

[@LaurenVacula]

Hemp seeds is one of my favorite proteins! Love that it contains all of our essential amino acids. I've been making hemp milk nonstop for the past few weeks 🌱

[@LifewithSerenityAllthingsgood]

Me to!! :) I love making a nut free vegan cheese sauce & putting them over my peanut butter toast

[@amaresalutem4251]

I love the vegan enchilada recipe idea. I've made something similar before but will have to try this recipe. I appreciate you making this realistic. I have been vegetarian for over 22 years and converted to fully plant-based over the past year and a half. No looking back! You've also inspired me to make more smoothies.

[@Fabdanc]

I am sort of glad I am not Candice's neighbor... I do not know if I would be able to handle all the amazing food smells emanating from her house. I would always be hungry.

[@davidthescottishvegan]

It would be the same if I were her boyfriend/partner/husband which she will be glad i am not because we couldn't afford to be in a relationship due to me having to eat all the time.

[@emmavossen1219]

I can not wait to try making these enchiladas as soon as I can find the cutting board shreds! I hope Diaya realizes what a good deal this video was for them because I feel like there must be so many vegans like myself who swore they would NEVER try a Diaya shred again but I trust you 100% so I'm going to buy them the second I see them! Also, I love the plant pot from dollaramma in the foreground! I have the same one!

[@abstergo06]

oh my, i'm gonna dream of these enchiladas tonight for sure

[@susi131]

Food bloggers be like: „This is a realistic what I eat in a day.“ but still make recipes with a million ingredients and spend at least 2 hours in the kitchen. 😅

[@EdgyVeg]

Julia recipes can have a lot of ingredients and still be easy 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@ITSLIZZ111]

Edgy Veg periodtt

[@RyanThomasWoods]

I made this enchilada recipe and it only took me an hour👀 and was so freakin delicious I was shook

[@susi131]

Having an hour to spare for cooking one single meal. Having the money to buy all those condiments and a kitchen that‘s big enough to store so many different things. That‘s a huge privilege. That‘s what I‘m trying to say. I used to be a food blogger myself and spending 3 hours in the kitchen each day and cooking meals from a million different ingredients was normal and realistic for me. But now that I don‘t do this for a living anymore I realized how unrealistic it is to cook meals that take more than 20-30 mins on weekdays with a full-time job and a family.

[@peachoxo4099]

@@susi131 Okay, but who's asking you to follow it exactly, you can customize with cheaper/less products. Not everything has to be about how privileged people are ffs.

[@margarett_b]

My gosh, you've just reminded me of my favourite summer drink- a strawberry and yoghurt smoothie. It's a "milkshake" I used to love as a child. And I will probably have to make some today ;P

Vegan for a few years now - I eat literally all day long, but I eat tons of veggies, homemade “chipotle” style bowls, and a good green protein shake in the morning. Skinny legend.

[@unboxed_byani]

Hi! Love your channel and would be so excited to see an eclair recipe!!

[@margarett_b]

That's exactly what we all love. Some relatable but still delicious meals which don't require 2 days in the kitchen :D Thank you for always keeping it real and fun! . Sending you lots of love! Have a fantastic rest of the week!

Daiya has come a LONG way since I first went vegan in 2010. I'll be making the enchiladas tonight!

[@thatsalt1560]

This is the most instructive What I Eat in a Day I ever watched.

[@EdgyVeg]

glad to hear that!

[@faithpon9324]

Looking forward to trying diaya. Sorta gave up on them. I trust your opinion. You make delicious food.

[@curiouskitteh8215]

Same! I will give the new shreds a shot. Their mozzerella cheese sticks are a lot better than their early shreds. I cut the sticks up on salad because they’re similar to feta. Looks like they’re changing up their shreds, yay!

[@flow4458]

Well, recently every vegan food blogger that I've been following has been making ads for them, it kinda loses authenticity for me...

[@lizcarr6329]

abc def but... they’re actually so much better lol it’s not a branding tactic. They used to taste and smell like feet and now they taste like cheese lol I’ve been vegan for 5 years and Daiya just plain wasn’t good before and now it is. It’s not an illusion lmao

[@flow4458]

@@lizcarr6329 Dude, I've never had their cheese, I don't live in the US, they don't sell it here, but I wouldn't purchase it online, just because I personally hate it when out of nothing every YTer is the hugest fan of a brand they've never mentioned before. Don't get me wrong, it's not a problem I have with this particular channel, but all in all, since every YTer I follow acts the same way, the brand just loses a lot of points for me... The product can still be good.

[@curiouskitteh8215]

abc def I agree with you unless the product is a new release. If it’s a great product it will spread quickly word of mouth. I’ve never seen this on the shelf before, it looks brand new. And could tell just from the video it looks and melts differently than the old daiya, so I can’t wait to try it and suspect others are naturally doing the same.

[@apracticalwitchtarot]

This looks incredible!! My husband and I are moving and I know this is going to be the first thing I make in our new place 💕

[@Syoma]

Do you think you can make a DIY canned young Jackfruit for people in the tropics who have Jackfruit trees. fresh jackfruit doesn't have the same texture with canned. I want to be able to make my own canned Jackfruit. I want to harvest lots of them before they get ripe.

[@CastledarkDweller27]

[@RyanThomasWoods]

I just made this recipe tonight and IM SHOOK! I think it might be my fave Edgy Veg recipe. The spices created one of the best sauces I’ve ever tasted and each bite of the cheesy mixture within the tortilla blew my mind! I actually only used 1 pack of daiya’s new cheddar shredded cheese and was perfect! My non-vegan family was shocked how good it was when they knew I was making a vegan meal tonight😂 10/10 recommend this recipe

[@kurtstradtman3570]

I've been following your channel for 5 years (started when you released the Chick Fil A copycat) and I haven't been vegan but have always aspired to be. Sooooo half a decade later, I'm ready to pull the trigger (I can't wait to make your lobster roll, btw!) But what advice would you give for someone who has a carnivore partner? How do you do it? Do you have to cook two meals every time? It's easy when we go out, but at home that can get pricy (and tiring). I want to be a vegan for animal ethics, however, as a functional health practitioner, I respect that some people (like my partner) wouldn't thrive on a vegan diet (also I don't want to force it), so I "don't mind" cooking animal protein for him (I know, I know, its hypocritical but I love him and respect his diet choices), but I have to go vegan. I'd love your opinion.

[@EdgyVeg]

I find that you can often share lots of your meals, especially if your partner is willing to occasionally eat vegan meals. If not, making the sides all vegan (vegan veggie dishes and rice or pasta for example). Then you can have different protein options to go with the meal
