I can't imagine someone not liking this guy. He has such a nice personality. Always fun to watch his content. 😊

[@Pops_Gambit]

I don’t like him. I love him 😂

[@kristincarter6850]

I have to agree! Biggest part of why I watch! He gives off such good energy!! Keep doing what you do☺️

[@loribakergirl6438]

Agreed!! 🎉

[@Simnettnutrition]

Thank you!! Everyone is so kind to meeee! How can’t I be kind and have good vibes. 😊

[@maryhamilton6843]

First time I have tune into what I eat in a day (and I have many you tube subscriptions) I decided to watch yours I was not disappointed you gave me some yummy ideas…and your personality is a bonus 😊…I have a request I’m not asking for recipes but a list of ingredients would be much appreciated 😊PS love the tahini in the tomato sauce and I’m Italian 😊

[@sendsriracha7849]

I used to mix hummus into my tomato sauce all the time to make a sort of “vodka sauce”. So creamy & yummy mixed with peas & pasta! ❤️😋

[@kathy.7475]

Great Idea. Thanks for sharing.

[@peacefulplaces3634]

Love how you make good food accessible while executing humility.

[@Lindabseattle]

Hard to pick. I love both 🎃! Awesome camera work Derek. You really captured the feel of fall! And as usual some great food...yummo!

[@ilikeoptter]

I love both of your pumpkin creations almost as much as I love both of you. Thanks for the great meal options. You never fail to inspire me.

[@mammabear2183]

It’s always a joy to spend time with you, Derek and Chrystal. I loved seeing the pumpkin carvings!!! So fun! 🎃

[@claire4688]

love the kitty basket - your fur babies always add so much! no contest with the pumpkins - you both tied for first place :)

[@peaceinwandering]

Literally watch each video of yours! I can’t get enough. They bring me so much joy :) I loved both of yalls pumpkins!! Crystals was so cute and unique and yours was impressive and quintessential Halloween!!

[@dawninthemountains]

Good, hearty, wonderful Autumn meals that I can actually make!

[@Simnettnutrition]

Awesome! I’ll have to do a video with some soup or squash in it soon!

[@Loveplants4me]

Hi Derek! Fajitas are the sizzling strips of the bell peppers and onions (usually with beef or chicken. )I love to do mushrooms. Burrito is the actual wrap that the fajitas go into ! ❤

[@perrywhitledge4005]

They both go into a tortilla not a burrito. The burritos are usually bean based.

[@Nates33]

The whole video was great quality Derek 👌🏼Loved seeing the pumpkin carving with Crystal, the energy of you two always brings me joy and puts a smile on my face 😊

[@melrox8809]

Wow both pumpkin look amazing. 🎃🎃 My daughter craved a ghost 👻🎃 pumpkin & it came out so good.

[@Deb_BG]

Yay! Saving for later when I can relax and enjoy! Thank you.

[@davidabache9432]

The outdoors footage was so beautiful, what a lovely country you live in. Your pumpkin carving was pretty cool. Great recipes love the breakfast will definitely try that one.

[@jmdes8]

Another AWESOME video Derek, Thank you ! From Colorado, USA. Love food, love cooking and eating a whole food plant diet!

[@irmahernandez6922]

Hi Derek! Both pumpkins look awesome. You both did such a a great job! Fajitas are named after the type of beef traditionally used. Very thin sliced and seasoned beef. A plant based version can be made with anything, soy curls, mushrooms, tofu, etc. Burrito comes from Northern Mexican and is just refried beans, meat, or what ever in a flour tortilla wrap. You can make a burrito out of fajitas. I hope that makes sense. 😊

[@lizziedripping71]

Here in the UK we have been having huge volumes of rain & flooding so your food is such a comfort ❤️ It always takes me a while to adapt to cooler, wet weather & the change in the light.

[@AnnikaWithAk]

Same up here in Edinburgh, last weekend was quite miserable with tons and tons of rain.

[@thomasstremfel704]

I super highly recommend toasting your pumpkin seeds while the oatmeal cooks, it makes them 1) way easier to chew on when its crisped up, and 2) just way better tasting imo

[@dibamoca9885]

I love the radiatore pasta shape!! The sauce clings the the pasta so well.

[@davef.416]

Another enjoyable video. The mushroom varieties you have there is pretty amazing also , and I always enjoy the food you create. Derek , I think your pumpkin took the prize , but both of them were very well done!

[@micktbaby]

Great meal ideas. I got Derek’s cookbook and have made several recipes. Highly recommend. Easy, practical and delicious. The sauces and dressings are so amazing. My new go to cookbook!! Thank you!

[@Gangelizedtreasures]

Yes, fajitas have a different seasoning mix & are traditionally made with onions & peppers. Great video. Both pumpkins were great!

[@tlopez5821]

Derek, you live in such a beautiful place, thank you for sharing! It's a blessing to live where you can appreciate the seasons! You and Crystal are adorable & my favorite KZbin couple!! But I have to say, given all of your great recipes & delish content, it hurts my heart to see you use store bought salsa/pico de gallo. :( You can make some AmaZing salsa concoctions of your own, I believe in YOU!! It is my 1 request to see you bang out a killer salsa recipe all your own, PLEASE consider this, you will rock it - no doubt! Also, no beans in fajitas v burritos & fajitas are usually served on a sizzling hot plate, as some differences in those dishes. Keep the fabulous content coming! Blessed Be!!!

[@gruszkayogi]

Thank you, these videos NEVER get old. Always so fun watching you cook and run/lift/go for walks with Crystal. My partner says Derek's scary face pumpkin is the winner. I think I agree, lots of detail in that scary face, good technical skill :) Thank you! Crystal's cat is great though too

[@cailinshuffles]

Your content is always incredible! Love the cinematography! 😄

[@MissBizyBea]

Here's what I do when I want anything with a tomato sauce base on it. This is also quick. Just add a jar of sauce to pot then blend in a Nutri-bullet/Vitamix some water, garlic, nutritional yeast, spices/herbs if you want them plus nuts of choice. I use 1/4 c. cashews most of the time and then add that to the pot of tomato sauce and you're in business! Cuts way down on the acidity of the jarred sauces plus adds a creaminess that's delicious. Ratios are up to you plus you can also add other meat replacements like soy curls/etc.

[@marzettik]

Rofl! It snaps! He’s so excited, lol. Great recipes. The last pumpkin I craved, I turned into pumpkin pie(craved the pi sign into it).

[@Nadege949]

You are both winners in the carving competition! You are also both lovely and talented, funny and entertaining!

[@pamwalmsley1865]

Hi guys! So, I was quite impressed with Crystals pumpkin but Dereks scary one is my favourite. Happy 🎃 Halloween

[@pattysmith9892]

Tie for the pumpkin carving! Both awesome!!

[@lisabarnetson1362]

Wow! Those pumpkin are fabulous!! I saw a new way of looking at pumpkin carving that I thought was ingenious. The guy cut the bottom out instead of the top. You sit the candle on the "lid" and just put the pumpkin over top. Seemed easier.

[@laurenrda07]

Both pumpkins are awesome! Seriously ❤ all the food looks so good I can't wait to try them, and that makes total sense with the tahini in the sauce those noodles are so festive too. It's fun being creative in the kitchen. 😁🙌

[@JL-tf9ru]

I have been watching your videos for 4 or 5 years. Love the content. I tried your oat recipe with blueberries instead of banana, and it was wonderful. Thank you!

[@Joy80JJ]

I love both of your pumpkin creations..can't pick just 1 of them. You guys rock. Love your content.

[@YoGinny]

You both won because you both did an awesome job and you had so much fun ❤❤❤. Love your videos 🎉

[@geno5169]

I enjoy all of your videos! I needed to see what you eat in a day! I’m new here started my journey on plant based! Basically I’ve been eating either oatmeal with walnuts! Flaxseed! Organic plant protein powder! With a fruit smoothie! Ily orzo salads with chit ! I t not sure what else Ty order!! 🙏 thank you Derek for sho us how you do it! I needed this!

[@sendsriracha7849]

BOTH of your pumpkins are SO great! 🤩💗

[@IgorPoloz]

Just thought about new video and it's here!) Watching. P.S. Please, buy and use a Rode microphone 🙏

[@lenalootens5625]

Another great video!! You have style, joy, energy and love! Thank you for everything! Greetings from Belgium 💝🐴🌹

[@marimesquita1961]

Your videos are awesome! I love the way you put healthy meals together, and you are so energetic. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@Zenithx3]

Handsome vegan man. Yes Please!

[@radhanadevi]

both pumpkins are so creative !

[@sharonlong8177]

My husband & I watch every video and have done for a very long time! Great content with a very genuine beautiful couple! Keep em coming ❤ choosing which pumpkin 🎃 was like choosing your favourite child, not possible but were amazing!!! See you on the next one guys!

[@AndrewPawley11]

Liked the running & mushroom segment.

[@Lepgek]

I dig your videos! I'm not vegan but they're very inspiring! I also love when you add the vlog style to them like with this one 👍

[@kathy.7475]

Love all the recipes and will try them all within the next week. Great pumpkin carving but the cat is my favorite. It’s sweet and not scary.

[@carolynlapota5495]

Both pumpkins awesome! Both of you are talented. Always enjoy your videos.

[@AnnaBlueStar]

Love the tahini with tomato sauce idea. Thanks

[@VISAYASJEWELRY]

Great pumpkin carvings, guys! I have to call a tie though. Both so good! Great pumpkins, great recipes. Thank you!

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

Both of the pumpkins are fabulous!

[@All_The_Beans26]

OMG I have to try that pasta sauce trick! Thanks Derek!

[@Rayaelle]

Tahini with tomato sauce and plant based milk (and lots of pepper, nooch and garlic) actually makes a rosée sauce!

[@laureenjohnson5570]

All of your food looked delicious!! We are 30cm under snow here, so delightful to see the autumnal colours of BC. Sorry, Chrystal,,,,,Derek wins this time!

[@linzertube]

How you managed to find a piece of music that sounded a bit spooky for Halloween and a bit Italian, for your pasta dish, is beyond me…but, well done! The meals all looked delish…I especially have a weakness for fajitas, so that will be what I make first. Thanks, Derek! Great pumpkin-carving, as well, you two! 🎃🎃🐈🌕 I honestly can’t choose which I like more.🤷‍♀️

[@athenawallace8966]

Loved seeing all the shrooms on your run! 🍄🍄✨✨

[@josephwilliams4650]

Another awesome video. Great recipes and nature walks. And here for that plot twist arts and crafts - I am inspired.

[@janfox2596]

Great job on the pumpkin carvings!

[@cherhonda]

Yes👏🏾My Canada Boy Posted🥳

[@catecurl3790]

That fajita/veg mix looks delicious. I'm imagining that blended into a soup served with kidney or black beans 🍜🍲

[@TWROC96]

Derek, you did a beautiful job of filming your run and capturing the various mushrooms at the same time.

[@user-fr6bz8xj3i]

The light behind you all while carving was spooky and gorgeous! I love both pumpkins!!

[@machellegeorge7802]

The pasta dish looks amazing!

[@helpfulcommenter]

Hey from Texas, Derek, lemme help you with the Fajitas question. Fajitas = Tex Mex stir fry. It isn’t “a fajita” my dude. It’s not like a burrito or a taco. Fajitas refers to the chopped up ingrendients when they’re sizzled at high heat on a griddle, skillet, or comal. Usually fajitas base is onion, peppers/chiles, maybe garlic, and then traditionally chicken or beef. For vegans soy curls, why not. But yeah fajitas is super hot and fast cooked veggies and protein. Then you can do whatever - eat with tortillas, wrap like a burrito, put on rice, it’s just a preparation method.

[@helpfulcommenter]

PS typically the fajita meat is grilled first over fire, then chopped up and thrown into the comal with the sizzling veggies and tossed and served still sizzling

[@vegan_winegoddess1400]

Both pumpkins were awesome!!!!🧡🐈‍⬛🎃

[@janetrobison2765]

The pumkins were so different, you are both winners! Nice food!

[@KathyTrithardt]

I love the "look both ways" on the track when I don't think anything runs on the Vancouver Island tracks anymore :P

[@emmagartlan6802]

That just happened to me too.. the ball bearings would get stuck so I just bought a new container :) I liked both pumpkins but yours was the best Derek.

[@elenapacas_]

Love your videos! inspire me so much to eat healthier :) Greetings from El Salvador 🌱

[@ImAshlynnCarter]

You’ve got the best channel for plant based athletes by far!

[@melrox8809]

My favorite kind of vlog. My Vitamix is still going strong.

[@jenniferandersen5979]

Both pumpkins are equally awesome! Much better than what I could do! Love watching you guys!!

[@scienceislove2014]

Use those pumpkin seeds for making pumpkin seed milk.. They're the best.. you must try em out..

[@smz9570]

*coming over for dinner* yes it looks amazing!

[@jordanwisniewski3238]

I think it’s a tie for the pumpkin carving. I love them both!!! Defos guna copy yours though, Derek.

[@annabethelliott5017]

I love the video showing close ups of the mushrooms as you ran through the forest. Awesome work!!!

[@barbarak1744]

Great Pumpkins! Great food! Great peeps!

[@trudy7096]

Really enjoyed the video as usual !!

[@teagoldleaf4137]

3:28 I love this, so thoughtful ❤ Great video, as always. Thanks for sharing your awesome recipes with us 🙌

[@ashleymcdaniel6188]

Wow you both did a great job on the pumpkins!

[@michibragdon1202]

Both pumpkins looked great.

[@carmenbailey1560]

Definitely always enjoy your videos. First oatmeal is my breakfast meal with walnuts & apple, water so your is supremes to mine. I’m going to look for the fajita seasoning and your pasta dish using tomato base sauce with tahini going to try as well. Pumpkins were both Awesome. Thanks for the inspiration outside and kitchen side. 👍❤️😊

[@smz9570]

Pumpkin seeds is a good add to the oatmeal

[@veganvagabond]

I really love the Kaslo Sourdough pasta!

[@amethystjean1744]

I have totally made that cat/moon pumpkin. They both look great.

[@katrinaharris5934]

I absolutely love these “what I eat in a day” videos! I think both of your pumpkins were great. 😊

[@donatina1987]

Wow, the oatmeal, ooooh, looks like artwork.

[@dawnpost2657]

Pumpkins turned out so good

[@brendafarris7350]

Delicious as always!

[@jeromefalcon3001]

Your s Derek is the best Halloween pumpkin; very well done! 🎃

[@sharynandrews1668]

Too hard to choose. I love both of the pumpkins. I love being able to watch a fellow Canadian and being introduced to food I can actually find to try. I just bought the field roast sausages at Superstore in Calgary for $7.99.

[@geno5169]

You two are amazing carving those pumpkins! They both look spooky

[@donnaferguson4903]

Can’t choose. Both are great. Good job

[@janetatuniquerawfoods2361]

This is Derek in fairyland… in the best way… with all the mushrooms.

[@mell8831]

Both pumpkins are great! Tie!

[@ChiChisAwsm]

I got the same blender pitcher replacement this week too! 😂 I think our vitamixs are the same age also so makes sense.

[@eydiegarcelon8889]

Another great video! Love the ideas, and I will definitely try that oatmeal. Yum! I use pears instead of apples though (allergic). Loved the pumpkins! Both turned out super!

[@denaeb5897]

The colors of that tree are incredible!! Sooo pretty ❤

[@michelejackson3040]

Another great video. Wow it’s a hard one as both are great but Derek’s is my winner

[@jomjoes4729]

My daughter loves your videos!!!!❤

[@geno5169]

I need more help on ordering in restaurants because i just started eating plant based.! I love when you show .’ Share your recipes!
