Hi everyone. Thanks so much for watching our new Meal Prep video. Now that I am working full time for the next 7 weeks, I have to pack meals like everyone else. So here is what we are having for lunchs and dinners this week. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below, you know I love hearing from you. -Joey

[@lisadeharthansen7076]

I am plant based, but visiting long-term with my daughter whose large family are not plant based. Thank you so much for the InstantPot options. Beth has a mostly unused InstantPot, so this week I was going to look for plant based InstantPot recipes, so I could experiment! I think everyone but the 6 year old will like these recipes. Gracias!

[@susannaball]

Where is the link for the iPot insert

[@libbyreed8588]

Off topic…Why don’t you pick up a window covering for those occasional evenings when you do film?

[@susannaball]

I found it in the show notes

[@ascendingsoul9237]

I have been plant based for 30 years, couple of suggestions; you might want to invest in some new knives, I find chopping onions and peppers much easier with a larger chef knife. Dried beans should always be soaked overnight or 6-8 hours to release the growth inhibiting enzyme, they also cook quicker. I meal prep chickpea (garbanzo bean flour) veggie quiche each week, great sliced for lunches with salad. Great job !!

[@consciousobserver629]

Garam masala is so underrated. Seriously delicious spice blend!!

[@2Argyll]

Tim, love thé moustache, you really rock it. 👍😊

[@Innovative2000]

One of my favorite videos! So much great content! Thank you Joey!

[@PlantBasedDads]

I will be doing more of this style video. It was really well received. Thanks so much for watching.

[@bigsexymama1]

I love you PBD! You are such an inspiration and a bright light in such a darkened world! I’m sure the kids love you too! Keep doing what you’re doing!

[@bridgettehunt6193]

Great video! I LOVE the informal style of this one! Thanks for the great content!

[@PlantBasedDads]

Hi Bridgette. I love anything to do with the Instant Pot. Thanks so much for watching

[@stacybart]

I am really enjoying your videos. I’ve learned so much. 7lbs down on HCLF diet and your recipes are part of my success. I’m making the red lentil curry for my meal prep this week. Thank you for letting me into your kitchen.

[@bettydrummond5969]

Joey, Joey, Joey you are my savior! After trying to cook oats and failing miserably, I tried your overnight berry oats. Fantastic! Now I feel so good about having oats for breakfast like the “experts” say I should.

[@Frkdsnbrd4103]

Just subscribed. Glad to find a plant based oil-free cooking channel. I don't like to cook but you have recipes easy enough for me without spending a lot on spices and expensive ingredients. Thanks for the easy recipes!

[@PlantBasedDads]

Welcome. Have a happy and healthy New Year!

[@samanthaoneill8628]

OMG I just made your lentil Dahl and had it over cubed sweet potato. So good 👍. I'm really impressed by it. Fantastic Joey

[@SB-000]

I'm glad you answered the call to teach! The food prep looked yummy. Today I made a simple garbanzo loaf which turned out very good! My parents were vegetarians,so I was raised a vegetarian. It was only a hop,skip,and a jump to being plant based.

[@maryfurman698]

Thank you Joey. Food looks great. I don’t mind seeingTim in the background.

[@ginakennett4051]

I just found your channel today and I have seen a couple videos so far. I really like the simplicity of the meals that you make and I sure am bean lover so this is right of my alley! Thanks for the awesome content!

[@cathymcgraw5731]

I've been wfpb for about 3 years and could never make good brown rice until today. I immediately tried your method and it came out perfect…thank you! I have your recipe for Cuban Black Beans cooking right now in my IP. I love how well you explain things and would guess you're also a very good teacher with your middle school students.

[@PlantBasedDads]

Rice used to frustrate me too. I have been now doing it this way for years and it has never failed. So glad you tried it

[@JunkJournalTreasures]

Great video! We don’t mind night videos with the reflection in window! tfs

[@jill1452]

I made your rice recipe and my son loves it... he much prefers it to my other rice recipe. Thanks so much for sharing... my son is picky so it’s nice to have more options that he likes!!! I really appreciate it!!!

[@elizabethdean0187]

Found you today on You Tube, Joey. Love PB Dads. Your and Tim’s cheese sauce and then your personal intro to veg/vegetarian. We’ll done!

[@nancyfinney5505]

I watch all of your videos. Learn something cool every time! Thanks!

[@cherylatkins7600]

Love this video, including Tim’s cameos. Can’t wait to try the recipes. Thanks!! ❤️

[@sarahmiller4621]

Congratulations on the long term job-so much better than day to day changes!

[@papercracker4176]

Finally tried the black bean recipe-they are awesome! Definitely something I will be making on repeat. I would make a double batch of these and take to a potluck to impress everyone with how tasty WFPB cooking is.

[@PlantBasedDads]

Those beans were inspired by my time living in Tampa. You could get Cuban food anywhere and I always gravitated to black beans and rice. So yummy. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Check out my video on the Louisiana Style Red beans. Its one of the earlier videos. Those are Tim's favorite beans.

[@LauraCastillejos]

You are a great teacher Joey! You explain things so well! Thanks for the recipes and video!

[@maryannjensen8497]

awesome video. loved it. thank you for the detail regarding sautéing in water and not adding too much so as not to change the temp. loved the video, recipes, etc. all look soooooo good! good luck to you all in the school year!

[@elizabethcowles6856]

You are inspiring me , these dishes look amazing. Thanks x

[@homesteadnana3984]

Ok, I just have to say, this has been my favorite video to date. I really enjoyed watching you function as couple in the kitchen you two are wonderful together. Joey, don’t sweat the small stuff this was great. Love you both ❤️

[@PlantBasedDads]

Britt, its so crazy, I hated making and editing this video because of how unplanned it wall was, but its gotten an amazing welcome from the viewers and people loved just seeing us go with the flow as the night went on. Its great to see, But, I still hate filming at night! HA! - Joey

[@bushnellentertainment5759]

you can do it! enjoy the process! thanks for sharing and take a deep breath! you got this!! :)

[@cindystrother7710]

Love that you keep it real Joey 😊

[@dianelotonuu2940]

Thank you for this video. I work full time and I have been struggling with food prep. This video has motivated me!

[@tylonblas2581]

Needed more of these!!! Thank you!

[@losmos0]

The food looks amazing! I want to try everything but especially the soup! Yum-yum x

[@GS-dq7sf]

Thank you for you’re time. Great video.

[@cdjo4845]

Congrats on your job Joey! I actually saved this video because I want to make them all! Especially loved the spices in the soup!

[@shannonphillips7602]

I loved that you are just like everyone and can't ever get to everything you intended to do. This video was great. The food looks wonderful. I'm going to try to make the soup soon. We are in the process of moving so it won't be until we are settled in. My meal prep had really fallen behind bc of the move but I'll be back on track soon!

[@pookie01a]

I do the same thing on Sunday afternoon after going to the grocery store. I make a different soup and salad each week. Then, I make overnight steel cut oats: 3 cups of boiling water, 1 cup of oats. Boil for 1 minute. Stir. Turn the heat off and cover. Leave out or put in the refrigerator overnight.

[@MyCoastalGarden]

Love the prep Joey! Have a great week 👍

[@noelenejephcott6954]

Love PBD, thanks for sharing sharing recipes in the description. I have just changed to plant based and need ideas for re ipes. Might have to buy an instant pot as i also work fulltime and it looks like it can save you a lot of time.

[@suzyqfaves4736]

Great video! I feel excited to do my meal prep today after watching this.

[@cindystrother7710]

yummy and DELICIOUS can't wait to try ALL those awesome and delicious RECIPES thank YOU

[@WineDinewithJeff]

Loving that vegan Indian lentil Dahl. I could definitely eat that every week so much flavor going on through that dish with all the amazing spices along with the Garam masala wow what a spectacular Dish

[@jillponce2802]

Great prep video. People need to see these in action to understand how to prepare ahead of time. I loved seeing Tim in the background with his goofy faces he was making.

[@williwishiwasnt]

THATS MY MATH TEACHER!!!!

[@PlantBasedDads]

Uh oh!

[@sage_]

Sameee

[@kristinesjostedt4183]

This meal prep video is great! I do all my meal prep on Sunday for the following week also. It's amazing how much time it seems to take, but it sure is great having everything ready for the week ahead. The recipes you showed look amazing! I'm anxious to make them all! Love your videos. Good luck with your teaching gig!

[@mahonsa1970]

Thank you! Looks delish

[@fayetriano377]

Love you guys!

[@wildaboutcooking2594]

I need that funnel, I usually fill them over a bowl to catch the spills 😉

[@Batboy103]

Saw that and immediately paused the video to go order it! Some dude is probably rich after thinking that up. lol So simple but sooo awesome.

[@loveandjoy810]

You need the Curtis Stone Chop chop. It’s super fast veggie dicing. I got mine on eBay. Oh BTW your mayo recipe changed my life!! Your chickpea salad sandwich filling is a family favorite. Thanks!

[@blanchewick1982]

Great job the soup is on my list as well as the other recipes thank you

[@pmgandco6322]

The Tim fly-bies are fun. He needs to do walk-through-and-wave in every vid! Also, for your window at night… you could get one of those big tri-fold display poster board things, and cover it with some nice contact paper or fabric (attach with spray adhesive). It can stand in that space between sink and window. Or, since you guys are handy, you could make a hinged mini/short room divider thing that you could set in front of the window, and then fold to store away.

[@carolradley793]

The 10 vegetable soup is awesome even if it is a lot of prep

[@nyaydagya]

Hey, Nice job, Add turmeric to you lentil, it will get beautiful color and taste and healthy. Also you can cook that lentil and rice together for combined taste with more of onions. It's fabulous. Try and use goda masala from Indian store as well. Garam masala doesn't sometimes go with lentils.

[@nancycosgrove4005]

Great video!!🙂

[@katherynshiflet5391]

Love it when you cook.!

[@juliegray2579]

I liked the off the cuff parts of this video. Great ideas for meal prep. 👍

[@ladyfae4797]

Great video really love all these recipes as they all look amazing! BTW is it me or have you and Tim lost more weight? I swear you both look fantastic. Have fun teaching this week

[@voice4voicelessKrzysiek]

I was trying hard to not laugh watching what knives he used and how he used them :)

[@marnierethmeier6538]

You are amazing !

[@NicAngels16]

I’ve always wondered how little liquid you could use for beans. I’m excited to make another batch of beans and try 4 cups of liquid instead of the 6-8 I normally do.

[@paul6402]

I made your black bean recipe for lunches this week. I love them!

[@kimpatrono9472]

Hello! I enjoy your food prep and your Starch Solution videos! Your veggie soup looks like one I make every week… I also add a head of cabbage, either green or purple, shredded. The only other thing that’s different is I add 1 cup of red lentils instead of chick peas (not my favorite). Have you ever tried adding the cabbage to your soup? I highly recommend it. Take care!

[@kimpatrono9472]

Sorry, I hit send too soon! 1. Joey, do you use white rice or brown rice most of the time? I always learned that brown rice had more fiber. Recently, most of the Starch Solution videos they are usually cooking white rice… 2. I can’t find the link for the extra instant pot insert & lid. Have a blessed Easter with your family!

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Excellent recipe video Joey and this video is longer than your usual video's. But that's a good thing especially if it is just a weekly video. Love 🥰the Lentil Dahl recipe Joey because I love😍 spicy recipes/foods. Have a good week and take care of yourself.

[@dawna-ba-da-bing]

This video was awesome.

[@goaldigger1]

Enjoyed this video and thank you for demonstrating what I consider a reasonable amt of meal prep batching for a person who works outside of the home. I am so weary of watching/reading WPB influencers who advocate for devoting an entire day of complicated meal prep/batching and menu plans that often don't include a day of leftovers (never mind eating the same thing for 3-4 days).

[@chrishiggins336]

Since you like beans and rice I thought I would share a yummy meal....I take my white rice, pinto beans, diced sweet potato (all 3 pre cooked), add to a bowl with cinnamon and a little salt. I really enjoy it! You can also sub the rice with white potato:)

[@christinecasson361]

Love food prep videos 😊

[@imperfectvegan5724]

Great video! Appreciate the step by step instructions. So helpful. By the way,Tim, you look great with a mustache!

[@joestasch]

nice!

[@lindagrzeika1161]

I make veggie soup regularly, but I’m interested in the spices you used to make mine a little different. When you have a chance, can you give me the spice list and amounts? Thanks! PS-Going to make the dal today. 💕

[@PlantBasedDads]

Hi Linda. The soup video with all the spices is right here: Thanks for watching Vegetable soup recipe video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmTFd5yJfralaKM

[@pmgandco6322]

Ok. So. It would be fun if you made one of your episodes to be like a math problem.

[@caroldinius4402]

Joey, get yourself a ceramic knife, cuts everything like you're going thru butter.

[@ebonyqueen4931]

Great Video. Where is the veggie soup recipe? That looked delicious!

Thanks so much for watching. Here is the soup video link: Vegetable soup recipe video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmTFd5yJfralaKM

[@yelnats61]

Great video. I plan to use a lot of these recipes. What is hot tea water you used to make the broth?

[@PlantBasedDads]

It is just water from the tea kettle and "Better than Bouillon" veggie broth

[@lizzzarduh]

I need to try that soup!! Why rice vinegar?

[@cindystrother7710]

Please don't ever listen to bad or negative comments please you are doing US BEGINNERS and others a favor by showing us recipes for the Mary MCDOUGAL and starch solution WAY OF LIFE and Dr McDougall thank you so much

[@shelleyarcher1244]

Great video. I'm wondering why you don't cook the rice using the rice button on the IP?

[@sage_]

Hello math teacher

[@PlantBasedDads]

Hello

[@muddypaws]

Hi..what size are the mason jars for overnight oats?🐾

[@t.t.2661]

⭐️

[@lynnepfeffer8039]

I always thought rice needed to be rinsed before going in the instant pot. Do you not?

[@PlantBasedDads]

It does have to be rinsed. I realized after I threw the water in the pot that it was not rinsed. I took it all out, washed it and added new water but I had to cut out that part because the video was already over 30 minutes long. But yes, please wash rice first everyone!

[@lifebyre6144]

What are options do you suggest for breakfast other than oatmeal?

[@PlantBasedDads]

Hello. My usual breakfasts other than oatmeal area Polenta (Like grits, love it), tofu scramble, mung bean "Just Egg" knock off scramble, fresh fruit with nuts and seeds and a little bit of plant milk, smoothies, oat pancakes.

[@judycowdrick2499]

Did I miss something? No Black Bean recipe in description on my viewing. Oh, my! 😊

Hi Judy. I have a video where I make that. There is a link to it in the video. Ill add the video link to the description below this video too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYvJf2monMadg80

How much dry black beans?

[@PlantBasedDads]

Toni, I just updated the description below the video with all the black beans info.

[@savedbygrace1582]

I'm a lazy cook. I don't saute anything. I just dump it & go. I'm sure my meals would taste better if I did, but time is more important to me than taste.

[@255094]

How do you keep your your pots so clean and shinny? Mine are not shinny anymore 😞

[@255094]

@Evan Davis thank you! I use baking soda but I never use vinegar… do you mix the 2 of them?

[@cindyszoke6204]

You have non starchy veggies in your soup..

[@dawna-ba-da-bing]

Doesn’t the rubber seal in the instant pot absorb the smell of all these different meals? I hardly use mine but after I do cook anything with spices the seal smells gross for a long time.

[@lisadeharthansen7076]

You will want to invest in extra, different colored silicon seals. A lot of people use red for sweet dishes. You can code the colors for savory, Indian spicy, etc. When you wash the lid, remove the seal and keep it out of the lid until you cook with it next time. Some people store the pot with the lid upside down to allow air circulation.

[@TishDavisCFO]

I have some extra seals that I switch out for this reason. When I do a curry or marsala it lingers forever so designated seals for that

[@PlantBasedDads]

Dawna, YES it does. My IP Always smells like chili because of that rubber seal.

[@jeaniebarrett7586]

Wrong knife.

[@PlantBasedDads]

A 34 minute video of non stop cooking for preparing meals for the work week and thats what you took away from it? I normally just delete absurd comments like this, but I think I will keep this one.
