[@carlypastore]

Derik brings up such a good point in this video about the protein. He didn’t try to make any extra added efforts to get to that 150g of protein, it’s really not that hard to get that much protein on a vegan diet. I’m so glad that point was shown in this video!

[@edgbarra]

​@@daggettbeaver242It's very helpful. Without it he'll still have like 120 gr tho. That would be more than enough for me

Ah crap, it still tasted good though!

It’s a spice mixture for scrambled eggs, but you’re the chef and you use it where you like it best. Bon Appetit/Guten Appetit!

Thank you so much. I will always take yall on my adventures 😁

[@pinkiepinkster8395]

And Crystal behind the camera did an awesome job.

This is how one eats when they have done it for years. You learn and your taste buds get simple. I eat like this (been for 7 years now) and it is delicious. No need for complications…. ❤

[@vanessaharris5180]

The 'interludes' make your videos even more interesting Thanks for taking the time to video and share all these aspects of how you incorporate health and wellness in your life. Its motivational!

[@kelmac1618]

You are such a badass! All that protein! I need to rewatch to figure out where that all came from!! I made a stir fry while I watched this. I have to have fresh veggies (I don’t know why, but frozen just makes me not ok.) I enjoy your lifestyle segments, mostly because it’s so awesome to hear you talk since you’re a solid person with positive perspective! Thank you for sharing with us! I also enjoy hearing your wife giggle in the videos! So nice to see the great synergy between you two!

[@dudesnowman]

Ive been vegan for about 7 or 8 years but have recently gotten into health and fitness more, so happy to have found your channel! I love your relaxed approach to food, getting protein, hitting the gym - you make it all seem super achievable 😊

Thank you :D

[@lisakirkby1727]

I would just like to say that I really appreciate the nature adventures you take us on in your videos. I love hiking and love seeing the outdoors in BC. I haven’t hiked there in over 20 years. The cooking. The nature. The gym. You and Crystal. It’s all great. Keep up the amazing work!!! 😊

[@EmForest]

Thanks for calling me out with this video...LOL. And by that I mean calling out my excuses about not making delicious food....Timing each meal prep was a great idea to drive the point home. Guess I can't use "it takes too long" as an excuse anymore...Great inspiration as always, and love the mix of activity/food videos. Great job as always. Keep going!

One thing I like about the States or Canada is the mega sized frozen fruit or berry bags in stores. In Ireland they're measly, don't last at all and need to be restocked all the time.

[@ivylovesrunning]

Yeah they are sad. But in another way, we are lucky as the fresh fruit is much cheaper than in thr states. It is crazy expensive over there.

[@Simnettnutrition]

I buy my frozen fruit and Veg from Costco. It helps a lot. Most normal grocery stores here carry smaller sized bags, but they are $$ so it's better to get it at Costco.

Hey bro loved this video. I used to watch you and all the vegan youtubers years ago and tried going vegan my main excuse for not sticking with it was I wanted to gain weight and i didnt have time to cook. I really wish I stuck with going Vegan like 10 years ago. This videos really inspiring me to try it again and get back in the gym. And believe it or not to shave my head cause Ive been dealing with hair thinning for a long time and honestly looks so good on ya man keep up with everything you do!

[@BenButcher-v3i]

Loved this video. I found it really refreshing and more natural and less edited. It’s just really nice to see someone that I find inspiring making healthy meals, but having all the extra bits included aswell. Such as the getting the ingredients from your kitchen and fridge, cleaning up and navigating a pan that was too hot as it made the whole video have this feeling of authenticity and originality. Not that you don’t have that in your other videos because you do, I love all your videos! But this one just was extra authentic and I really loved that. And I’d love to see some dehydrated snacks, meals as I have bought one but don’t know any ideas of how to use it! Love your content so much Derek! Love to see you ride your bike too and all the extra bits you enjoy away from the food too. And it’s lovely to see you and Crystal too and the parts you both play in the videos.

[@JazzedatHome]

I loved the color of your smoothie, Derek! It's a lot brighter than I'm used to seeing, for a smoothie with berries. That must have been because of the mango. For those who are not keen on protein powders in their smoothies, I usually use black beans or firm tofu, plus soy milk, almond butter, and spinach, to bump up the protein.

[@pennPi]

This is how I eat too. Just chop up a bunch of veggies with some left over batch cooked ingredients (usually tofu, and quinoa or brown rice) and throw it in a bowl! Except I tend to put vegan siracha sauce and nooch on everything, as opposed to tahini. Love these kinds of videos ❤ Do you have any suggestions on healthy sweet treats after dinner? That is the only time I tend to crave sweets. I’ve been drinking herbal tea, but sometimes it isn’t enough to get over the craving.

Great ideas, Derek! Can't wait to make the 1st dish; it reminds me of an egg salad sandwich from my pre-vegan days. And because of you, I tried those sage-apple links (and placed them over rice). Delicious! I also dip those links into a side of apple sauce - scrumptious! Thanks, as always.

[@Simnettnutrition]

Oh the sausage links are soo good! I'm glad you like them. The egg salad I made is suppose to mimic an egg salad sandwich, although I kept it pretty healthy in the video, some vegan mayo really cranks it up a notch, just in case you really want to go for it.
