Renergy Breakfast Sandwich

[@Ballisticbob517]

Rener Gracie could literally teach stain removal techniques for shirts and it would still be entertaining

[@Shaun1gza]

Rener really has a great gift of explaining the simple and the complex. SALUTE!

[@DocTani]

he instructs making a sandwich the same way he instructs ju jitsu ahaha

[@har0111890011]

haha yeah even he says Boom like when he teachs us a technique .. A great master :)

From the moment this guy starts explaining things you JUST KNOW he would be the best friend you ever had. He totally reminds me of the cool character that saves the day and makes you feel like the hero even though he knows you didn't do much. I wish all the blessings of heaven on him and those he loves!

[@153gmoney]

Rener is a good mentor/teacher imo, hes very detailed and has that "pure" gracie feel when he talks. its not just his jiu jitsu techniques i like, i just like his lifestyle, its inspiring. he is a very smart man

[@andrewsarellano]

Can I substitute lays potato chips for the kale munchies?

I always get such a kick out of watching and listening to him and his brother. They seem like super nice guys who are so enthusiastic about life. Thanks for another great video!

[@random-videos]

He has a talent for teaching.. I wish I could learn from this guy!

Finally tried it, it's pretty good, I will definitely be keeping this in my diet. Thank you Rener!

[@genustoby]

Just enjoyed my first Renergy sandwich today! A complete treat. So tasty. Thanks Rener. Week 2 of my BJJ training too. Loving it. I couldn't get the dried kale so i bought fresh then dried in the oven at 150 degrees for 20mins. My kids also can't get enough of it. Added bonus!

[@GizwelTheMage]

Interesting combination. I'll definitely give it a try.

[@kurtxvx]

I've been making these every day for the past week. So good. I've been using the fresh ground almond butter you grind yourself at whole foods. Here on the east coast we don't have those kale munchies so I bought the "Brad's Raw Chips" spicy kale chips that they also sell at whole foods. Such a great sandwich, and very good for any vegan diets.

[@Antuna16TV]

I just tried this yesterday, July 9, 2019... 9 years after this video. THE SANDWICH WAS AMAZING. Thanks Rener

[@adamdavieswebspider]

Rener... great job on the video. I made this sandwich this morning and found it to be fun to make. I made my own kale chips in the oven, which was also pretty fun. The videos for making kale chips are all over KZbin. After eating one of the Renergy Breakfast Sandwiches, I did feel a bit ill. The taste was surprisingly good, not sure why it made me feel sick. I guess I am not familiar with the combination of ingredients. I'll try again in a week or so... keepin it real in the south.

[@cnotake]

Mahalo for your healthy living and eating videos. Your Gracie family philosophies on diet is a true inspiration. Gotta buy your diet book. It's hard to find mentors that give you that drive and motivation to eat healthy.

[@gingerbreadboy]

Made the sandwich and it's delicious! All the flavours work together. For kale chips just buy normal fresh kale which is really cheap and put it in the oven, there's plenty of tips on how to do it on the internet.

[@saqbomb]

Awesome sandwich, made it this morning. Kale is definitely key! It's a really nice combination of flavours.

[@markhenderson3771]

Entertaining and informative! Thanks for sharing. I'm in.

[@pcarp83]

I made this sandwich minus the kale crunchies (I can't find them and online is a little expensive) and this sandwich is VERY good! Thank you Rener!

[@RyanManggala]

After 9 years. Still watching this.

[@darylbuchanan4140]

DAMNIT WHY DID I WATCH THIS DURING MY FASTING PERIOD?

[@BBoydgirl1]

Very charming vid. Obrigado Rener, apertos!

[@153gmoney]

this is a great sandwhich, i tried it and its GREAT and healthy. the key ingredient is the spinach like rener said imo its what gives it a good taste

[@oldwisetale]

HAHAHHAHAHAHHA!! The proud chewing was priceless.

[@MrGiantHippo]

i made a generic because i didnt go to the supermarket. i used water rolls and then peanut butter lol and then avocado and spinach salad. tastes real good.

[@13aldav]

Just made this and I'm eating it right now. It is the best fuckin sandwich ever. The crunchyness of the kale and the smooth avocado complement each other perfectly.

[@AjaychinuShah]

From his expression it was not bad but very good. :->

[@michaelc1114]

Kale?????????

[@michaelc1114]

mb hadnt finished the video lol

[@madelineyakimchuk]

I'm sitting here eating the sandwich now.. you are BRILLIANT! It is evening, but I started making the sandwich this morning. I picked the kale and made my own air dried kale snacks because, sure as hell if you can't find it easily there I am not going to find it in sydney ns canada! I also swapped in chard for spinach, because I have lots of chard in the garden and spinach is hard to grow here. Sill, it is spectacular. Gotta go eat another!

[@lambosnicko]

mmm hope i can find that almond butter around the UK, looks really tasty

[@JEspin2024]

I've just had my first Renergy sandwich ever. I must say it was delicious. I didn't use the kale munchies he suggested though. I made my own kale chips (look on You tube for homemade recipes). Both the chips and the sandwich taste great. Thanks for posting it Rener.

[@veesutube]

Made this for dinner tonight! At first I thought...it's all green...but it was super yum :) I appreciate your making these unique recipes videos. Hope to see more of your ideas. (Found the Kale at Mother's Market in Santa Ana! Had to ask for it, and they brought it out from the back.)

[@angelsite285O]

So I just made this sandwich I liked it! I probably won't saute the spinach because the slimy texture was riding with me. I like how the almond butter molded well with the avocado and it's amazing!

[@todei79]

Rener, you sir radiate nothing but positive energy.

[@voodoo1032801]

awesome sandwich! great mix, the two slices of bread make up a good amount of carbs while the almond butter makes up the protein. All while the kale and spinach add to both plus fibre and other nutrients. In terms of calories its great too cause, since almonds are a calorie dense food it gives a lot of calories. Whats even better is everthing is organic !!

[@NoGimmicks144]

great stuff man , yeah that kales hard to get over here . i usually blend all my veggies n fruit but i try n stay off the bread if i can .

[@jeebusyaweirdo3733]

I just want to say thank you so much Rener, you have been a great guide in my martial arts journey and you’re one of the reasons I got into ju jitsu

[@TheBlackDog73]

I tried it without the kale and it was still pretty good. Not used to eating foods in that combination, but overall I was impressed.

[@Delakwah]

i make the exact same thing except i substitute Wonder Bread for whole grain, Nutella instead of almond butter, bacon replaces the acocado, potato chips for the kale and chuck the spinach. it tastes so good it's hard to believe it's healthy! thanks Rener!

[@VoluptuousB]

He has all this "RENERGY" but he sounds calm. I love it, his voice is deep, not too deep and monotoned, like his energy deep and steady! Rener seems like a great guy. (Shy smile)

[@jgn2112]

I just made this for the first time today for lunch and it is really good! I was skeptical, but I really enjoyed it and will make this a regular part of my diet. I did a few things differently though for anyone interested: 1. I use Sunbutter instead of Almond Butter...sunbutter is "peanut butter" but it's made from sunflower seeds...tastes AWESOME and has a better nutritional profile IMHO 2. I used Hot & Spice Vegan Cheese flavored Kale Chips

[@SOLROSENBERG2]

I was very surprised. This is a very good sandwich. The almond butter is what really makes it tasty.

[@153gmoney]

exactly, caffeine is not a good stimulant....imo stimulants are bad for you overall. natural energy is the best and leaves you feeling the best. this sandwich really did give me good, healthy energy and never felt like "crashing" or "wired" like what caffeine does. i was a little skeptical at first but i went ahead and tried it and i strongly recommend it. thanks Rener!!! your videos help me expand my knowledge of jiu jitsu more than most other teachers videos, keep it up!

[@Aniketos00]

Going to try it out although I doubt I can get a hold of that Kale thingy dilly...

[@ChadHatcherTV]

i like how he clears everything.. especially the avocado scragglers.

[@suryavajra]

Well everything he does, even if he is going to the supermarket produce section, he takes it as a moment to teach the right techniques. He has a passion for teaching. Did you hear the podcast where he responded to criticism from Renzo Gracie?

[@xfightcityx]

i just made this sandwhich, even got the kale munchies. it tastes great.

[@jessicahansen7958]

Made the Henergy sandwich today. It was not as good as a pb&j but it was fantastic. The kale chips were a nice flavor boost and the spinach was cool.

[@Geeker13]

The ingredients which make spinach work so well are the nitrates found abundantly in spinach. Nitrates make the mitochondria, the "engine rooms" of cells, more efficient.

[@harveyacosta2352]

Looks good, try without sauté the spinach (the flavor is very different and much better), instead sauté onions and garlic. Also instead of kale chips, buy the kale put it in a bowl with lemon juice and orange juice, fresh, leave it over night (you can use it the whole week), this will make the kale smooth and with an amazing flavor.........

[@OlafThorbjorn]

Harvey Acosta I'll try that one

[@dianareddell1496]

Harvey Acosta that sounds delicious! What would you suggest to replace the crunch of the kale?

[@katherinecaruso9092]

Thank you, I will try this. My friend taught me about avocado and almond butter toast with honey, but I was searching google to find how you all suggest mixing certain foods together, and specifically eggs and avocado but this breakfast looks too good!!

[@ausudougy]

Just made it...used organic peanut butter..and had to bake my own kale since noone has it boxed. Had it with homemade pineapple juice, Also picked up the coconut water o.n.e...not bad!

[@Torakiwhite]

my new favorite cooking show!

[@c.j.6891]

Love the passion!

[@pr0n3]

Olive oil is still fine to use as long as you don't take it anywhere near its smoking point. If you keep it at low temps, it won't oxidize and release/create the toxins you speak of. Regardless olive oil does have a lot of anti-oxidants and you can also use "grass fed" butter to stabilize it while cooking.

[@crimsonshadowking]

looks amazing

[@rakhit]

I swear if Rener didn't get into Jiu-Jitsu he'd be running top infomercials. I don't even like what he made but I'm going to make it anyways and eat it.

[@chrizzjizz]

i soo just made one of these like 30 minutes ago and it was great!! i am trying to follow the diet starting today--i bought a pretty good juicer and made the apple/ban. one you made on your other video which was tasty too! ....i train at the Relson Gracie academy here in san antonio--thanks to you and your family for "keeping it real" :p

[@Geeker13]

Rener is right on with this sandwich! According to the research, which was published in the February issue of the journal Cell Metabolism, eating a bowl of spinach every day makes your muscles "profoundly" more efficient. Researchers found that eating 300g spinach reduced the amount of oxygen needed to power muscles when exercising by as much as five percent.

[@amazingGrace108]

if you add little bit of "kala namak" black mineral salt(you can purchase it in asian or indian grocery store) it will give avocado taste of boiled eggs.Amazing combo.the salt smells of sulfur a bit and tastes great.

[@tandcalways]

master! he puts leverage and rotation even in making a sandwich guys!

[@BenJune09]

Tried this sandwich and loved it...thanks for sharing!

[@Meelodin]

Hey man, I tried this w/ whole wheat whole grain bread, organic peanut butter, and avocados. It was delicious. Will add spinach next time. Dunno about those kale chips if they are too expensive.

[@sparkuri]

I tried it, EXCELLENT! I changed a couple things. Instead of Almond butter, I used Avacado as my mayonnaise, and instead of Kale chips and spinach, I used ham and cheese. Simply incredible.

[@kennyb123]

You really didn't try it then.

[@wackrapsatire]

sparkuri so you basically ruined the whole aspect of it...

[@dreamextreme7293]

hahaha

[@dreamextreme7293]

instead of using avacodo next time, use mayonnaise. keep your ham n cheese n add bacon lettuce n tomato. substitute the juice for an ice cream sunday shake. then youl really love it.! oh. swap the wheat bread for white. ps. your life will lesson in value in other areas.. that or just do it the actual ingredients next time.;)

[@780vpz780]

dreamextreme7

[@pr0n3]

Yup, pretty much what I stated. You just stated to "don't cook with olive oil". I just wanted to state its perfectly fine to use it and it has many benefits as long as you don't go near smoking point. Cheers mang.

[@Rex-golf_player810]

Lol what

[@X581jr]

I think it's great that Gracies that make diet an important part of their martial arts curriculum. I have heard but am not sure that you must be able to lay out your planned diet as part of your black belt qualification. That's awesome.

[@skustadroppazleague6019]

Rener im a fan i hope you read this Thank you for inspiring me and lot of people all around the world in your juijitsu teachings. God bless and more power

[@DSGhST07]

Try putting Pumpkin Butter on the sandwich aswell, makes it taste even better! Especially good for the season

[@SolidNative]

I love these videos !

[@SomeKindOfMadman]

This is a favorite of mine, though I prefer fresh kale instead. Also, I like using coconut oil to cook the spinach and kale. Question, what do you think of the Rogan Kale Drink ( I have that each day)? Second, are you 100 % vegan?

[@alexviking72]

just made one with peanut butter and cashews on the side... amazing!!

[@KrisMachina]

i'm eating the sandwich right now as i'm typing this xD. The Kale munchies combined w/ the almond butter gives it the strong greeny taste but it tastes REALLLLLY GOOOOOOOD Thank you Master!!!!

[@currannaaach]

I will try it soon

[@amirkazemi2517]

love Rener!

[@JdawgMMAblog]

looks great.

[@williamrivera5190]

If you want to up your sandwich game, use Ezekiel bread in the frozen section. It's sprouted and is a complete protein.

[@illuzeweb]

You can make your own Kale if its not around just put it single layer on a cookie sheet with parchment paper put your cayenne pepper on it etc... pull it out when its crispy. You're good...also you can put spinach or any fruit in a bowl with apple cider vinegar and let the soak it'll remove the pesticides etc.

[@MsClaudiaDuran]

Rener Gracie is like your best friend's athletic older brother who was always super sweet when you came over to the house and you wrote about every night in your diary.

[@jamasandoval7407]

This recipe might find you a spot on Worst Cooks in America, but I would pay any sum of money to watch you host a cooking show -- All day, every day. In fact, you've convinced me to try your sandwich.

[@Dmedic2009]

I've been looking for this recipe all my life

[@jamesdemon138]

Instead of wheat bread, I recommend Ezekiel bread. It's sprouted whole grain bread, It's healthier for you.

[@Alchemistic88]

i tried it but i dont have that rare crunchy stuff but i've never had almond butter. its awesome. every once in a while I make up for it with other stuff. Sometimes I add a little chicken breast or tuna for some extra protien but I really like the idea of sauted spinach in a sandwhich in the morning :) seriously these gracie videos have made me more conscious of what I eat. Also I tried coconut and watermelon juice for the first time. DONT GET IT WITH ADDED SUGAR! they're both sweet enough

[@robbelliii]

Just made my first attempt at the Renergy Sandwich V1...Dang! That was an amazing meal! I thought for sure I could not replicate the speed of making it, but it really does not take that long at all.

Mate, you need a video on the humble avocado smoothie which is common in Vietnamese restaurants but underappreciated generally. You can also make an awesome chocolate pudding out of avos - no need for cooking.

[@brando8882]

Washing an avocado is like washing a fucking banana before you eat it

[@faz1991]

Brandon T only if you cut a banana with a knife o_o

[@tigergreg8]

I was my eggs before I break them open because of the cross contamination. There is all kinds of crap on food, and even bottles etc, when sitting on shelves and warehouses. Think of all the stuff you've picked up and set down, Times that my how many hands etc. I wash everything I get and use that people can touch in a store etc.

[@livebyreason]

Wrong. The knife can introduce microorganisms as you cut inward...which is a problem since this ingredient is uncooked.

[@caltha2720]

While I am not careful, I'll happily eat an unwashed apple... etc... there is good reason to wash things. Here in Australia, 5 people have died recently from Listeria contaminated rockmelons. A lot of the time it is the elderly or people with compromised immune systems... but there is logic to it. Also, the Listeria as far as I know contaminates the surface of the rockmelons, and contaminates the fruit when it is cut. Long story short, you will probably be fine if you don't wash it, but if you have time, it doesn't hurt to take 10 seconds to wash it.

[@danicadilly]

Yum! Loving it -soooo tasty and giving me awesome energy to train Jijitsu!!

[@KMFB23]

Ran for an hour last night until 11:30, made lunches for the next two days, and a load of laundry. Less than five hours of sleep would normally be a difficult day of staying awake in front of my computer.
