Craig I just wanted to say, part of the reason I love your channel so much is because your house and kitchen remind me so much of my own house - its not perfect and sparkly like all the other youtubers. Also I will def try this recipe!

[@NoEggCraig]

haha thanks, just keepin it real over here!

[@serenakoo9912]

Tbh I narrate to myself when I'm cooking like I'm on a cooking show. Definitely a necessary part of the process.

[@NoEggCraig]

Otherwise you're food will stick to the pan!

[@MardiK2000]

Craig, As a fellow vegan and Aldi lover, I have a suggestion. I noticed that your sister objected somewhat to the Frank's hot sauce in the guacamole. I agree with her. Pepper sauces typically have a vinegar base and it messes with the flavor for me. On the other hand, Aldi sells a canned tomato and pepper item called Casa Mamita diced tomatoes & green chilies. For me, this is edible gold in a can! If I were making tofu tacos, I would drain the tofu and mush it like you do but not quite so violently so it is a little chunkier. Then I would put it in a non-stick skillet (no oil) and add the juice that I had drained from the Casa Mamita diced tomatoes & green chilies and cook it on a medium heat, NOT stirring so much as you tend to do, letting the juice evaporate and flavor the tofu as it browns. Then, I would make the guacamole. Mash the avocado, leaving it a bit more chunky, sprinkle in garlic powder to taste and mix in the well-drained Casa Mamita diced tomatoes & green chilies. Salt also, if desired. Done! I build my taco, with the tofu, beans or refried beans, if desired, lettuce, finely shredded cabbage, guacamole and cilantro. Then, I drain another can of the tomatoes and chilis and spoon them onto the taco liberally and top with a bit of nutritional yeast (nooch) instead of the vegan cheese (because it is oily). Darned good! P.S. I never toss out the juice from a can of the tomatoes and chilies. If I am not using the juice for the recipe at that moment, I freeze it in a snack-sized baggie for later use. When stir-frying any kind of veg, that little packet of spicy juice gives your stir-fry spectacular flavor. Double P.S. Avocado is expensive. Scrape that skin a bit more until it is clean. (I'm frugal. :D )

[@MardiK2000]

Yep, but Rotel tends to be a bit zippier than I like it; even if it says mild. I like spice and I know you do too, and I usually buy things in "medium" but Rotel gets carried away. The Casa Mamita is consistent and just the right zip. I just made some potatoes O'Brien this morning for breakfast and used leftover Casa Mamita juice from the tomatoes and chilies to give it zing. Mmmmm... (I don't know how you find time for all you do, but every night when I crawl in, I look on my tablet for a new post from Hercules and No Egg Craig. Thanks for doing it.)

[@MardiK2000]

Funny. He is a really nice guy so you probably didn't irritate him. He is just mega busy. I wish all he did was shoot videos, but he has a real life too. On the other hand, I have seen a few folks make comments that shocked me.

[@dianneroy3208]

Ludington Girl I am definitely going to give your tofu tacos a try

[@MardiK2000]

Yay! :D

[@CupcakeFaerie]

Also adding pineapple and/or mango makes guacamole short-circuit yer brain.... try it!!

[@nedbella]

If you haven't put sweet chilli sauce in your guacamole, try it. It's awesome.

[@NoEggCraig]

Sounds good!

[@abigailjones9084]

You and your family remind me of my family. The way you are with your mom and stuff. My parents live in Canada and I live in the UK so I don't get to see them much. Great videos!!

[@NoEggCraig]

Sounds like our families would get along great

[@cameron9091]

Hey Craig, your relationship with your parents is amazing, especially you and your mom. So hilarious. Lol. Also, you and Max are very good looking guys. Keep up the good work. Lol. Also, I live in Las Vegas, if I were to order some canfies, would you be able to ship it here? Have a good day.

[@NoEggCraig]

Thanks Cameron! And yes we could ship it to you, shipping may be expensive though until it cools down

[@thedivinemrsmaloy]

Omg! I'm dying right now. The add before this video was showing how to make deviled eggs! How ironic with the name of your channel. 😳🤣

[@NoEggCraig]

Noooooo! It's supposed to be NO eggs!

[@sarraphelps]

Love the song added in throughout lol

[@cclaussen]

Love that tofu squishing action!

[@NoEggCraig]

haha it's funny that you liked it cause other people hated it 😂

[@cynthia4given]

I like to use a potato smasher to smash the avocados. A lot easier

[@NoEggCraig]

That does sound easier

[@lunagonzalez3203]

more videos with dylan! also the editing made it really funny:)

[@NoEggCraig]

haha definitely! And thanks, editing is probably actually my favorite part of making videos

[@HiTopAddiction93]

i love the videos. i’m so confused on the house layout should do a house tour lmfao. cheers from canada 🇨🇦

[@lindsaywest823]

Love your videos!! Love your parents and now I love Dylan 😂

[@cindystrother7710]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR YUMMY DELICIOUS RECIPE

[@janicekrol8320]

🤣🤣🤣love the editing!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@NoEggCraig]

haha thanks so much, this was one of the first cooking with Dylan and Craig videos

[@karinakbo]

So funny with the refried beans 😛I am eating tacos too right now 🌮

[@2snowgirl520]

Iam getting to know where everything is in your kitchen, drawers and stuff.

[@sarahtrionfo6276]

As he gaucs out of the room

[@Rick__C-137]

Sarah Trionfo Yes!! LOL

[@charlottestevens9352]

I've heard alot of bad reviews on tofu what does it taste like and what is it

[@NoEggCraig]

It literally tastes like nothing 😂 BUT, and that's a big but, it takes on the flavor of whatever you cook it in. So if someone says they think tofu doesn't taste good it's just because they did it wrong haha

[@charlottestevens9352]

I'll try what you did then it looked good and clearly everybody enjoyed it

[@abbyfain3530]

My dad is on the ketogenic diet and uses liquid aminos and nutritional yeast...I haven't seen anyone use it besides him until now lol 😂

[@NoEggCraig]

Well now you've seen everything!

[@knitterpated]

Please could you tell me what the last ingredient in the seasoning recipe is? I can't quite read it as it goes around the edge of the container. Thank you xx

[@NoEggCraig]

Pepper I believe

[@rogue_sweetie]

I love you, Craig!

[@NoEggCraig]

haha thanks

[@kristietobin4405]

can you put the tofu taco recipe on you tube please?

[@Rick__C-137]

The cat at 12:39 looks like my cat. He's the best :)

[@NoEggCraig]

haha hopefully he doesn't knock your stuff over though 😂

[@batbawls]

I guess this is .... three bean tacos. (slides on sun glasses)

[@shywalker404]

I just read on a page on nutrional yeast, that it is best not heated but put on or into the finished meal, maybe stir it around before serving or else it would loose its vitamins and whatnot... can someone tell me if that is true ?

[@bujiknits]

any chance you could type out the recipe? having a hard time reading it...& it looks so good! if not, no worries!

[@gtiger766]

What kind of cooking spray are u using

[@jenni22776rn01]

Just starting my vegan adventure...do you recommend nutritional yeast added to most meals?

[@NoEggCraig]

If you like it haha, but I wouldn't do too much at any one meal, it can make you feel sick if you overdo it...Trust me I have...

[@avougueiscool]

How old are you Craig? By the way, I love your cooking videos!

[@NoEggCraig]

24 and thank you! More to come!

[@thahugglemonsta12]

Not going to lie, when you first grabbed the blue spoon and started stirring I was waiting for the tofu to go EVERYWHERE

[@NoEggCraig]

haha sorry to disappoint

[@stitchedwithlovebyloretta4684]

looks good, i actually wanna try Tofu...

[@NoEggCraig]

It's the goodest!

[@joannae3723]

what is the last ingredient in that spice list

[@NoEggCraig]

black pepper, you can watch me make it in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3S2hYyGZ5etnZY

[@joannae3723]

No Egg Craig awesome thanks.

[@MS-hs1ew]

Also, what brand of re-fried beans do you use? Every time I find them anywhere, they always have pork fat/lard. :(

[@NoEggCraig]

It's the fat free version of Casa Mamita from Aldi, try looking for fat free refried beans, they should usually be lard-free!

[@rplittle66]

This is a "LIGHT BULB!!!" idea, Vegan Mukbang AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! told you so.

[@NoEggCraig]

I actually did one without realizing what it was haha, Max and I just had good conversation over food kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3SpoXqqf6Z8ock&t

[@JaimeNacole]

what is nutritional yeast??

[@NoEggCraig]

It's mostly used to make vegans things taste cheesy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutritional_yeast

[@dianneroy3208]

JaimeNacole Vegans use nutrional yeast to get their b12. Very high in b12 and to get that cheesy taste

[@fafafohi6726]

first time viewer here you should be a character actor or something you have a good personality and a very expressive face i laughed when you said OH MY GOD 10:17 haha i could easily see you in a comedy movie PS i like your house feels very homey to me

[@lindsayphillips4362]

14:40 lmao!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@lindsayphillips4362]

and 17:18... oh who am I kidding I was cracking up the whole time!

[@NoEggCraig]

hahaha glad you enjoyed the whole thing

[@littlefamilyliving1741]

😂 great video! Thanks:)

[@chaitrapollard8869]

Wow! I eat this in a bowl sometimes..

[@NoEggCraig]

Taco bowl!

[@chaitrapollard8869]

No Egg Craig I just had one. I couldn't even eat it all. I didn't add the tofu this time. You are welcome to some. Lol😉

[@RedKittieKat]

Now I need to try Tofu again ... can you tell me if you used hard or soft for this? I'm thinking hard ... but I can't be sure. This looks pretty doable as far as tofu recipes go. :) And I'm afraid I'm with your friend too .. so tell him he isn't alone .. I really want to like Avos .... but after a couple bites my mouth revolts on me lol :D I can eat guac if it's mushed in with other stuff though.

[@NoEggCraig]

This is soft tofu actually! And I'll be sure to let him know haha

[@ThelifeofLauren]

Red Kittie Kat on the box he holds up it says extra firm if that helps

[@NoEggCraig]

oh wow, apparently I don't even know what kind of tofu I use 😂 thanks Lauren!

[@ThelifeofLauren]

No Egg Craig haha just keeping us on our toes aren't you!

[@RedKittieKat]

LOL you two .. thank you both ♥

[@reynachavez9276]

The music had me dying 😭😭

[@NoEggCraig]

haha the dramatic music? Or the vegan rap?

[@carlafusciardi4785]

I'm a vegan and have no clue what liquid aminos are. someone please enlighten me 🤔🤔🤔 love your vlogs.

[@NoEggCraig]

haha it's basically soy sauce

[@donnal.hanrahan2824]

It looks mind you looks good “might” try it need to chat more about it

[@Sydneyhinojosa20]

Leave the guacamole to superman

[@dianneroy3208]

I am sure you know this but you can make guacamole with just red onion and lime juice, and probably a bit of coriander

[@the1andonlytrav]

Random question! How old are you, Craig? Also, do you work at the store or have another job? Just being curious. :D

[@NoEggCraig]

I'm 24 and I'm also a manager at a restaurant, and I do freelance videography as well.

[@cindystrother7710]

I SURE WISH YOU WOULD PUT YOUR RECIPES AND DIRECTIONS UNDERNEATH SO WE CAN HAVE THEM FOR LATER.FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO ARE NOT VEGAN AND WOULD LOVE TO TRY

[@ameliasteady9321]

Hummus is my natural habitat too

[@NoEggCraig]

We would probably be great friends

[@nunolopes3910]

what's the song at 14:25??

[@NoEggCraig]

The same one as earlier, Gary by DISL_Automatic

[@nunolopes3910]

Thanks

[@LMLauth]

OmG!! You's Guys !! LOL Love From Lisa From Alaska

[@NoodleyBits]

I don't like guac either...the texture is just too...yeck. FYI, tasting while cooking isn't eating...it's "quality control" ;)

[@NoEggCraig]

haha quality control sounds much more official anyway

[@patchyxx]

I love cauliflower taco meat. Cauliflower is a bitch to prepare but it's awesome for tacos!!!

[@meqt172005]

I seriously cringed so hard when you squished the tofu, Craig. omw! Warn me next time. lol. I did though.

[@NoEggCraig]

Haha we did bleep it out after a while

[@danic3683]

things are always jumping out at me too 😊

[@NoEggCraig]

Cupboards have a funny way of doing that

[@sazchickyrock8809]

you're like an old married couple!

[@NoEggCraig]

Haha that's us, we've been good friends for like 10 years

[@sazchickyrock8809]

No Egg Craig you're very funny together :)

[@zsqwax3030]

Tacomole looks kinda good haha

[@NoEggCraig]

Haha I’d eat it

[@judedadude3475]

I'm not vegan but still it looks pretty good

[@trixietruelove2274]

I like his eyes. Very exotic.

[@joaquinolvera1204]

[@CupcakeFaerie]

Haha Craig I sorta wanna marry you..... Not enough awesome vegan dudes over here in Buffalo! And certainly not enough intelligent witty ones..... And DERP! WHY is there no mango in that guac??

[@NoEggCraig]

+Harpazo Kitty I actually lived in Buffalo for about 6 weeks 2 Summers ago haha

[@CupcakeFaerie]

No Egg Craig what happened? I'm actually liking it more as I get older. Pollack Mick Kraut that I am, born and raised here!

[@CupcakeFaerie]

No Egg Craig you should come to Buffalo Vegfest on August 6! I think Vegan Zombie will be there! I need more autographs in my Harry Potter cookbook.

[@NoEggCraig]

+Harpazo Kitty I would but I'll be in the Adirondacks from the 5th to the 12th

[@CupcakeFaerie]

[@NoEggCraig]

[@ashs3836]

[@DesertNails]

[@matthewmclaren2143]

I had some Tacos for dinner There was one slight differance, Mines was Meat! (And tasty) I have tried becoming vegan but its not in my nature. Tried it so many times i cant live without meat Edit: If you put a wooden toothpick in your mouth whilst chopping onions you wont cry

[@NoEggCraig]

Cats usually don't make the best vegans 😂

[@matthewmclaren2143]

Meow :P

[@matthewmclaren2143]

[@bobross3080]

Yuk!

[@matthewmclaren2143]

Do Vegans Drink Alcohol? xD

They can! I can even get vegan 'baileys' from a shop near me :)

[@NoEggCraig]

They can, but I don't haha

[@matthewmclaren2143]

Great Just wanted to know if it was possible thanks :P

[@whatafriendwehaveinjesus5354]

I wish you wouldn't use the Lord's name in vain.

[@flossics8310]

I enjoy watching videos of you making your sweets, but when I see stuff like this all I think is why are you putting yourself through such hell... when you reach 60..70.. perhaps even 80 years old and you look back on your short life and think why could you not have at least been vegetarian (at least) and enjoy your life a little more.
