You honestly have me tearing up: thinking of people who are on a budget for Christmas - that's the spirit! Being alone on Christmas and on a budget, having something nice like this, really makes a difference! I made your Wellington in past years and it was such a highlight.

[@KentuckyChicken2]

this exact Wellington recipe? :)

[@zwiesland]

@@KentuckyChicken2 No, the other one from two years ago. It is quite similar.

[@Prancer4799]

As a broke student with no blender, thank you so much

[@thehappypear]

Listen Moo, no bother!! 😂😂

[@DDios-ih9de]

Ask around use a friends.

[@DDios-ih9de]

Get a cheap used one at garages sales thrift shop's a few bucks

[@factitiously]

Honestly, you guys have helped so much with getting my parents more plant based! We grew up in Ireland and live in the US now ... However, I could show my mum a million American KZbin recipe videos and nothing registers, but I show her one video with you guys and she's running out to buy everything to make the recipe!!! I send her all your videos now 😀 It really helps that you do the budget ones too, cuz Irish mammys can be real cheap, lol.

[@thehappypear]

That’s so cool to hear!! Thanks so much for sharing the love. Hopefully your Mam will like our next level Christmas Main, haha. ❤️❤️

[@evelynbaron2004]

Totally!!!!!!! Hard time of the year, and sometimes brilliant. Best wishes.

[@mimalesch5809]

Looks great. You can just mix up the flour with some cold water before putting it in the gravy so you won't have to deal with the lumps of cooked flour.

[@vkgreer100]

or use a whisk, if you have one - great for removing lumps from white sauce too.

[@RiaLake]

Made this wellington a few times now but previously used rice or potatoes instead of cous cous and sometimes a different variety of vegetables, always good. This year I used the onions/garlic/carrots/parsnip base with roasted swede, lightly sauteed, mashed chick peas, chestnuts, roasted cashews and walnuts in shortcrust pastry. Best ever. Thank you.

[@TheMollyUnderhill]

If you can afford in add vegan red wine to the gravy, it makes it so special and tasty. If your in the UK most of Sainsbury own brand is vegan (just check the label) and pick up bottle for £5.

[@zabelconnor]

A jug full of maple! Glorious sight.

[@MariliaMDiniz]

So I just prepared this whole meal for our Christmas dinner. It was amazing! I love how everything gets done at the same time, and in one hour we had all dishes on the table. Thank you sooo much for sharing, it was indeed delicious and super filling!

[@rjahood2473]

how was the wellington? im tempted but the cous cous is putting me off haha

[@sarahlange1002]

This recipe is perfect and I followed the instructions EXACTLY! The wellington was AMAZING and yes, add the extra soy sauce to make it extra-tasty! I cooked my potatoes and carrots in the same baking tray and I had the best result by slightly boil the potatoes first and add the carrots 20 mins afterwards and rotating the potatoes and the carrots once to make sure they cooked evenly on both sides. Yes, I cooked this meal twice in preparation to make sure Christmas went well... and it's such an AWESOME recipe!

[@heytheregeorgeygirl]

I love that you always nibble as you go along and then enjoy the prepared dish at the end. Just like the rest of us!

[@hopegold883]

If I’m at your house, and you offer me wine, I’ll hold up my glass and say, “Just two tablespoons, please.”

[@openaccessguy]

You guys are literally changing the world, one bowl at a time. Congratulations!

[@nopenope8380]

Actually love the way you guys offer suggestions of alternatives for allergies, saves me time googling to see what I can swap in. My Christmas wishlist this year consists solely of an ecoegg, lush products and your cookbook.

[@sarahstrong7174]

Oh no! I thought this looked great & wanted to try it but I havent got a twin to help me shape the pastry so I suppose thats it then. They should have said you needed a twin right at the beginning!

[@AdrienneAce2]

Sarah Strong, you don't need a twin to help shape the pastry. You just need four hands instead of two! Thumbs up on your comment.

[@sarahstrong7174]

@@AdrienneAce2 Ah well. Thats ok then, just as soon as I find the second-hand shop I'll be fine.

[@hopegold883]

Not just the pastry. I just need kitchen twin. Has to be a twin, not a helper. Explaining takes too long.

[@chevrandyw4903]

It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, and it’s on a budget!..I’m not crying *sniff*.

[@dominikamyszczynska5782]

That will be my first vegan christmas and thats how i imagined it :)

[@georginaadams4826]

Me too 😍

[@hemmyhardingfela]

mine too this year!

[@that1monk]

2021! Oh my goodness, this is very inspiring no matter which year! Thanks guys. 🎄💗

[@Allioops810]

Thanks! I’m going to make the wellington. Maybe I will add some lentils.

[@kayself1891]

Great idea! :D

[@DavidHernandez-oc1oz]

Excellent idea to add some protein! Plus it would be very tasty too.

[@pathfinder1273]

Even if I wasn't interested in the food, you guys are a hoot to watch! Great fun!

[@sophieosborne4322]

Amazing !!! Thank you so much i can't wait to try it .... You guys are so generous to share all of this whit us. Have a happy Christmas !!!

[@thehappypear]

Thanks for being so kind Sophie!! We love spreading the message. Power of positivity. 😀😀

[@TwoMessengersforGod]

Beautiful 💞 Thank You xx Happy Easter!

[@kellinigh2398]

Thank-you. You guys are lovely!

[@jeanneamato8278]

Beautiful! Just like you dudes. Bless you. 🎄❤️🙏

[@emmat2086]

“Ho ho ho DUDES!” I want to be better than this but it really made me laugh 😂

[@artgalore8202]

Looks fantastic as usual. Also, as a side note, with the gravy you can do the oil, add onion, then add flour, Stir and THEN add broth or water and seasoning. That way you NEVER have to strain the flour clumps out. They completely dissolve. If it needs to be thicker, mix flour and cold water mixed well in a cup and add it slowly to the already made gravy, while it's still simmering, until it gets as thick as you want it. Gravy is one of my specialties. 😊😊😉. Love all of your recipes!!! 👍🏼

[@patriciavincent5076]

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing the love brothers!❤️🕊🎄🌞

[@justingooding647]

Looks all so amazing & delicious, and love the Christmas jumpers!

[@victoriacos2182]

That looks AMAZING, love it. Thanks for the recipes!

[@divinelevinevegan3258]

I love you guys! I made this meal today and it was BEYOND delicious. I made it with a gluten free vegan puff pastry (with my proprietary blend of "flour") and homemade vegan butter. Cheers!

[@techwriting3971]

I love that you guys are tasting and eating everything before the end of the video! Made me so hungry!

[@msbellydancagirl]

I love this! Everything looks delicious!

[@mlgorey1331]

Omg I made this pie today. Gosh its massive and delicious and would feed an army. And yes the gravy ( which I'd never normally use) was great too. I started with the pie allowing the ingredients to cool before wrapping in pastry then put all in the oven together. I hope it freezes after cooking theres a lot here. Happy new year to you both and thank you very much for all your inspiration

[@bethvye6065]

i cannot believe this, i contacted you on instagram about the wellington you sell, sadly only in Ireland.You kindly rescued my christmas dinner telling me there is a wellington recipe on your Happy Pear website, tonight i logged on to youtube and was delighted and amazed to see you had done a wellington recipe, thank you, merry christmas

[@teresaking4039]

Looks divine - will try!

[@josianedalcourt8220]

Thanks guys! I just made this for Christmas dinner and it was delicious!

[@angelalee7012]

Salt: always optional! Looks great, boys!

[@keshastickland2933]

This is our first vegan Christmas too and I’m cooking for a family of 5! Really wanted to make it special, but couldn’t figure out how till I found this video! I already made a veggie loaf and stuffing ahead (frozen now), but now I think I’ll turn the roast into a Wellington by wrapping it in dough. Then add the yummy looking carrots and cabbage as sides. Thanks for the next level ideas guys!

[@pamfitzpatrick7629]

Love your recipes! made the Wellington and loved it so much, I am making it again for a Christmas potluck! Thanks for the amazing recipes!!

[@aliciav4352]

Looks delicious and very do able!! I'm seriously going to try this!!!

[@heytheregeorgeygirl]

Looks absolutely delicious, I'll definitely have a go at that.

[@lifeofaimee6259]

OMG guys you are really taking it to a new level with the budget meals - great job!

[@petercurrin8413]

Dreamy perfection. The dinner looks really nice too❤❤

[@finestadversary2060]

I've watched this so MUCH!!! I will make this for this xmas. I'm looking forward to it now 🤗 I think ye have converted me with the cabbage as well, a bit of green needed on the day 😋

[@kennethfelipe823]

This looks amazeballs. I am totally going to use that pastry on my stuffing and see if it works out. You guys always give me great ideas. Happy Holidays.

Watching one brother cook: nice! Vegan food. Accidentally discovering them cooking together: THERE'S TWO OF THEM!? the happiest day of my life so far 🤩❤️ their cookbooks are smashing! Highly recommend.

[@LilAdoris]

Thanks for this Xmas dinner recipe. I will go for it with some twists. I will replace couscous by potimarron (pumpkin kind), potatoes by chestnuts and I will mixed carrots and sweet potatoes fries. A little more expensive but not out of range. Thanks a lot !

[@svatisingh1]

SO GOOD! Thanks a million guys, you're doing a great service to the world :))

[@kaleflower2319]

Great move for folks on a budget!

Watching these two makes me wish I had a twin. ♥️

[@bethanydavison5426]

This is amazing. I'm gonna do something similar next year. The store bought alternatives here in canada are $5+ alone, this would be so helpful and help me stay under budget. Definitely keeping this in mind for Ostara (Easter)

[@Mrmuffinlol]

Thank you guys!

[@tibisaybermudez4945]

I love your recipes and also you are a lot of fun! Happy New Year! I would like to ask you that if I can substitute the hot peppers you are putting in the cabbage for something else or just leave it with the ginger. Many blessings for you both and thank you for your great work!

[@LishaJoya]

Greetings my Vegan Brothers! This is perfect especially since finanances has been very tight as of late. This is going to be a fun one to try with my son (who is vegetarian) but is also LOVING vegan dishes even more! I would love to try to cook this with my son. You guys have encouraged me to cook more with him and now he is in love with tamari! heheheheeee. AND he is making ME food for work that is vegan! (im so happy) I have to ask though....what paper do you use in the oven with the wellington? I also have the challenge of only having a toaster oven as an oven for the regular oven we have is broken. One day, can you try to bake things in a toaster oven for those that have "oven challenges"? Much love! ♥ lishajoya

[@diannessewingroom7]

Hi guys I made this yesterday for some of us that are plantbased for Christmas dinner it is fabulous! I will regularly be making this for Sunday lunch, we have enough left for today too. Thank you.

[@CSWRB]
