Cozy Vegan Meals You HAVE to Try This Fall

In today's video, we're making some cozy autumn vegan recipes. We start off by baking some fresh, homemade sourdough bread that we use to make savory mushroom toast for breakfast. For lunch, have a baked salad with crispy quinoa. For dinner, we cook up a butternut squash lasagna with vegan béchamel sauce.
✹ Mentioned ✹
Yondu Umami Sauce - amzn.to/3gCsEsd
Sourdough Recipe - "Beginner Tartine Sourdough" by A Food Lover's Life blog
Baked Salad w/ Crispy Quinoa -- "Baked Kale Salad with Crispy Quinoa" by Justine Snacks
Bechamel Ratio → 4 cups water : 1/4 cup vegan butter : 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (can sub white rice flour for gluten-free), plus a pinch of nutmeg
→ Cultured Spreadable Cashew Cheese
-Soak 1 cup raw cashews 4+ hours in water.
-Drain and add to blender along with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons sauerkraut brine. Make sure it has active cultures (i.e. it hasn't been pasteurized). You can sub unsweetened plain vegan yogurt if needed. Add extra salt in that case.
-Add the minimum amount of water required to get it to blend. I added about 1/3 cup. You will need a powerful blender and preferably a tamper to get it smooth; otherwise use a food processor and scrape down regularly to blend evenly.
-Transfer to a very clean container, cover, and allow to ferment in a warm spot for 12 - 48 hours. Taste to decide if it's as tart as you like it. Throw it out and start over if you notice any off colors or smells.

I loooove the insane long videos, please continue

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Haha thanks! It was originally 30 minutes before I cut it down 😂 I guess I underestimate my ability to ramble.

[@tamaryny]

Same, felt like 5 minutes when I was watching it

[@purple-pink-sky]

I agree. Absolutely love these long videos.

[@heikesiegl2640]

Insanely long? I think good things take time^^

[@suprememedjai4433]

I'm here for the Bingo Bango!

[@maryjoanne1011]

Yes bechamel is standard in an Italian lasagna, we also call it ‘pasticcio’, which means mess 😄 That sourdough looks awesome! It really makes me wanna get back into making bread, thank you Sarah

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Oooh that's good to know! I guess I haven't had much lasagna in my lifetime. 😂

[@camlachnille]

I don’t often watch videos where I want to make every single recipe, but this was one of them. 🤤

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Aww, that's amazing, thank you!

[@sammakesitsimple6827]

3 recipes + 20,000 tips and tricks. Thank you!

[@nyae2006]

Sarah I can hang out with you and Erick for more than 30 minutes for sure!!! I love your approach of making things from scratch, good lesson the pandemic should have left us!

[@kaylacapper7515]

I loved this video and prefer this style to the ones you've been making with the soft, sleepy music

[@basti985]

I'm so happy to be following your videos for so many years! Your channel is just a safe space at this point and I love all the long relaxing videos, it's like hanging out with you two! 😁 Still remember your first taste tests together!

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

🥹 Thanks for sticking with me for so long! So glad we can provide that kind of feeling for you.

[@Yeahthatshowifeel]

Ha ha Eric with the bingo bango! I actually like it 🤣😂

[@ayecooks]

omg that perfectly crusty sourdough bread, the cultured cream cheese... WOW, unbelievably good and inspiring

[@lizfortes9056]

I am so excited you are doing more KZbin content again. I am not on other social media. You and Eric are so adorable!!!

[@bat-elmiller4285]

I find these videos super comforting.

[@LoveHardFightHard]

I thought the "bingo bango" was cute haha. Y'all are soo adorable together!

[@denisemast8551]

Bingo Bango!

[@melissaslappey6978]

I love your ingenuity with making things from scratch. Could you make a video with the process of making the cashew cheese? It seemed so easy but I’m nervous to try it! Also your sourdough process, if you’d be into that. Love your videos, you always inspire me to try new things and do things via the homemade route :) thank you!

[@tiinah5602]

Loving the cat background image on the computer screens

[@NikkiLove9022]

The process of you making bread together was so cute!! I've really been wanting to try making my own bread, but I always feel like I'm going to fail. xp

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Give it a try! Worst that can happen is you end up with bread that you just have to turn into croutons or something 😅 we've all been there!

[@jessdrawsit7060]

my favourite potato salad is roasted. Potatoes, tons of bell peppers, red onion, all roasted then tossed in a red wine vinaigrette dressing with fresh dill. PERFECT in the winter.

[@maridaaucamp5133]

After watching this video I tried roasting my cabbage for the first time and it is so good, like probably my favourite way to eat cabbage and one of my favourite vegetable dishes overall. I sometimes make a spicy version with gochujang as well, really good 😊

[@EricAmesmusic]

❤ love you and love this video

[@annaliese724]

"Bingo bango" had me in tears for some reason 😂

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Eric here....should we be making Bingo Bango merch or???? hahahaha

[@LaRa-youknowit]

Eric cracks me up “Bingo Bango “

[@jiggabot]

Loving all of your cooking videos again! I have missed them! ❤

[@rosiej-h248]

Didn’t know you were a Gladeholm alumnus! I guess thats how you know you’re in the past 🧙 Bring on the long videos, they’re always a joy to see

[@yvettefelipe2584]

I. Am. Literally. Salivating! You guys managed to stir my appetite now I wanna cook at 7:30 pm when my kitchens already cleaned 😅❤. Love it. Good job!

[@User_87937]

Your videos are always so comforting to me for some reason. Keep making long videos

[@bastosaswang7398]

I am loving these longer videos! Everything looks delicious. I also have a list of recipes I've been wanting to make. But most importantly, y'all need to watch back to the future ASAP. GO. NOW! HAVE FUN!

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

okay, we'll watch it. but if we hate it, we're blaming YOU!! 🤣 -Eric (obviously)

[@FGFsMo]

Okay but the relatability of cooking all day and then being exhausted and ordering take out 😂

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

😆 It's all the filming and everything! Sometimes by the time we're done, we're sick of the meal we made and need to wait until the next day until we actually want to eat it, haha.

[@plantaetivoli1178]

you're my queen! i carve special solo time to watch your videos!!! Much Love and Peace from Upstate NY

[@moscafroglover2127]

Me: sees mushroom toast.....😳🤯....jots down mushrooms on grocery list at lightning speed. As always, y'all's food looks ammmmazzzzing!

[@lindalatham412]

Long Islander here too👋...i just love you guys!!! Great recipes as always ❤️❤️

[@emilyhoffman3677]

loved this video so much!!! obsessed with the fact you two got takeout instead of eating the lasagna, iconic move

[@berryveg]

I love yondu!!!! From south Korea^^

[@hannahmitchell87]

Thanks for the Yondu taste test & verdict! Gonna get a bottle for my Mum's Christmas hamper!

[@veronicasalas2666]

Omgoodness I need to try my hand at sourdough and the pickled onions!

[@zepzour7391]

Gas Oakley’s lasagne has bechamel and ragu. It’s my families favorite vegan dish

[@hennahintsanen8586]

justine is one of my absolute favorite food creators on tiktok and instagram! i love seeing you, another food creator i really like, draw inspiration from her - feels like the coolest collision of worlds 💌:D

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Aw thanks so much! She really is great -- so creative and I love her storytimes.

[@barrbuff]

Your pink apron is adorable.

[@italianprincess5046]

[@isyt1320]

I love this!! Can't believe I happened to be on KZbin right when you posted, excited to be first to comment hehe

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

woo!! 1st comment award 🥇

[@laurajackson6860]

It's nice to see you posting a little more often. I'm still learning by practicing the fermenting process. Though I now have a couple of quarts of Sour Kraut so just need to get the sour dough starter perfected. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@GlitterySawa]

Bingo Bango 😂🤣 Ahh Eric 🤣😂 That lasagna looks good

[@v.gladney1624]

Sarah l wish l was like you. You and he have everything together!!! I am starting the vegan life. I am really having a hard time but l refuse to eat anything if it isn’t vegan. I live by myself with x 2 yorkies. My only company. I bought a lot of vegan cookbooks. I pray 🙏🏽 l can do as well as you have. God Bless you❤

[@TheFussyVeggie]

girl. it's so good to see you doing so good.. really glad to have your food videos back!

[@lisanyugenhascancer6332]

I made some pizza today finally after being disconnected and limiting food. Thanks for reminding me I can enjoy what I want. I live sourdough.

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

That's amazing!!! 🥰 I've been in a similar mindset in the past and finding food freedom is really such an amazing feeling.

[@lisanyugenhascancer6332]

@@SarahsVeganKitchen right!!! Those were some amazing vegan pizzas

[@triplecap123]

You two are so sweet and make my heart happy 😊

[@kevnrob1]

I enjoyed every minute of your video and would have watched more!

[@heikesiegl2640]

It is such a bliss watching you two make stuff^^

[@breanag118]

My favorite content creators 💕💕 been watching for years!

[@shess1640]

Love love love that pale pink apron on you!

[@joeyq9953]

Sarah is so real and amazing and inspiring. Love all her recipes.

[@starbucksgirl6715]

The lasagna looks delicious and fairly easy to make. Plus, some of the ingredients I can use in a soup as well.

[@yuna_bean]

idk what it is about fall that screams kale and gourds but it definitely does and now I have to make that lasagna! 😋

[@girlwithtiger5233]

This was such a fun video! Make more of these, please!

[@annetteseif]

Great Recipes 👍🏼🍂🍁🌾I want to try the Lasagna 😊

[@butterflylove2642]

🌱🕊💚 I don’t mind your long videos at all; I love them. I cook along with you. These recipes look delicious!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@lilmonster90210]

bingo bango *side eyes* making your own sourdough is one but that cashew cheese threw it over the top !

[@beckyb5917]

Loved this style of video you guys! ❤️

[@catalinapia]

wooooooooooooooooooooowwwwww that lasagna looks incredible, need to try! came across your youtube channel a couple weeks ago and I can't get enough of your recipes! thank you for sharing!

[@omgayoso]

Love the energy you two have

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

My oh my those recipes look DELICIOUS!!

[@juliekjorlie7183]

Could you give me more details about the cream cheese? I would really like to make that. I love your videos!

[@KingsMom831]

These recipes all look DELICIOUS!!❤

[@bethwaldren3303]

It all looks so yummy!!!!

[@TheMavyStar]

I love these videos. Its like I'm cooking with my friend 😋

[@Randilynn66]

I think a few dried cranberries or cherries would be an excellent edition to your bake salad

[@donnamchugh6258]

Love the longer videos. 😊 Can’t wait to make that lasagne. Yum

[@Pinupred21]

Loving the long videos ❤

[@heathergisi4163]

Garlic confit is the best thing ever invented! You definitely have to try it! That baked salad and Chile oil sound amazing!!

[@ummmyes]

Have you watched back to the future finally?? 😂 because theyre awesome

[@BetaniaAllen]

wonderful video as per usual; agree with others they are very cozy, comforting recipies. All the recipies are somewhat different and look inspiring and yummy. Watching Back to the future and then Still, Michael J Fox’s film about his Parkinsons, is an experience I would call uplifting.

[@janellemartinez538]

Everything looks delicious 🤤

[@inezvasquez8104]

I enjoyed the long video! It was real. 🥰

[@jacquip965]

Y'all are so fun to watch! The recipes sound tasty and look wonderful. It's always great to see your videos and reels pop up.

[@angelashikany5329]

My favorite grain for making rejuvelac is kamut.

[@lucyjackson6879]

I love your videos! Everything looked delicious ☺️

[@ruthhorndasch5244]

Ooohhh that lasagna needs to be on my menu soon ❤

[@normalopez2856]

Omg! The toast is my new breakfast lunch or dinner! Thank you so much !

[@barbara5495]

LOVE Yondu!! I use it when I saute' or bake veggies. Super great stuff

[@heathermc5557]

Longvideo was great! Love all the ideas, little high reaching for me but I can take today bits from it, veggie lasagna looks so good and doable😁🤣

[@immabemyself1]

I would love to see a vid of you trying all the things you’ve been wanting to try! Also i gotta make this lasagna too it looked delish! And absolutely love the long vids 👏

[@matanieandrei6749]

wild mushrooms are very good, some types are hard to miss recognoise. i go every year to forrage wild mushrooms!

[@tammysvegankitchen]

Always love your videos!! Thank you and hey I like long videos as I’m usually in the kitchen myself while I watch!! Thanks for all the inspiration!!

[@judithv8738]

im loving these longer videos!!!!! love watching you talk through the recipes 🤍

[@Queenlisarae]

I've just found your channel and love your videos!!! You've given me so many things to try (I currently have roasted carrots marinating in my fridge for bagels tomorrow) and your mushroom toast and vegan lasagna with the bechamel will be next. You both are great fun to watch and I love your channel!!

[@reva510]

Everything looked sooo good! Really want to make that mushroom toast and the lasagna!!

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Yay glad I can provide some inspiration! Thanks for watching.

[@mariezimmerman8247]

all of the recipes look so delicious 🥹💕 also long what I eat in a day/vlog style videos are my favorite kind of videos, especially coming from you and eric 🌱

[@Britbabe53]

You guys are the cutest! How are you enjoying the PNW? By the way those vintage casserole dishes you shot a pic of are going for up to 35,000$ right now, so if you see one in a thrift shop, grab it!!

[@GamingFoodie]

Everything looks so delicious especially that bread and cashew cheese! Just learned of a surprise salad topper...FRIED CAPERS! Tossed them in a skillet with some oi. I'd love to see how you might incorporate these into your meals.

[@Miekzz]

ahh these recipes all look so good! :)

[@berezh_alina5615]

Wow, now i really need to cook all the dishes Thanks!!

[@HeatherThrills]

Every dish sounds delicious. Wow, you really know how to keep people interested. It seems like some really tasty dishes here.

[@c0ldlight1]

I love mushroom toast! Mushroom breakfast is one of my favorites, on toast or oatmeal or rice. Also your apron is amazing.

[@saskia8583]

I'm a little behind on your videos but absolutely loooved this one, very good vibes :) Definitely going to try that lasagna sometime soon cause it looked amazing.

[@GothicaBeauty]

Sarah i challenge you to veganise my double chocolate cherry cake. It’s a basic chocolate sponge with bashed up dark chocolate & cocktail cherries in. It’s absolutely amazing & gooey too. P,S yes, we put béchamel sauce in Lasagne in the Uk. xXx

[@laureenjohnson5570]

So good!! I learned a lot and your recipes look amazing.....I'm inspired!

[@andreawalker7138]

Every time I watch you make sourdough bread it makes me really want to make sourdough bread. But I'm intimidated by the starter 😨. Maybe I just need to watch you make it one more time and then I'll have the courage 🤔. Thanks for another interesting and informational video!

[@loriparker7899]

Yondue is fabulous.

[@SarahsVeganKitchen]

Love it! Wish I had bitten the bullet and ordered some sooner.

[@Sarah.LibraryLiving]

I made your lasagna! I used sweet potato instead of butternut squash because that's what I had, but otherwise it's the same and it's SO GOOD! One of my favorite things I've cooked in a while. Yay fall recipes!

[@marypositarock]

I love your recipes! I just subscribed. Your sourdough bread looks amazing. Do you have a video of the recipe to make it? In advance, thank you for sharing such beautiful and delicious recipes. Greetings from Mexico
