tortilla soup & cheesy taquitos | RECIPE?! ep #9 (hot for food)

[@judithfinelli6916]

Lauren and John! - I am a 68-year-old and I have been vegan for about 20 years - I had my several favorites I would eat over and over again. However Lauren! - You have completely revolutionized veganism and my own diet! It's a whole new fun philosophy and way of thinking! I am so very grateful! Here's to the revolution! Judy Finelli in San Francisco

[@shirinf333]

That's amazing! I'm so glad for you :D

[@judithfinelli6916]

:-)

[@georgebilbruck1821]

Except this meal has cheese in it, which has milk in it, which makes this meal not vegan. Congrats, you broke your 20 year vegan streak! "You have completely revolutionized veganism and my own diet!" (by making your diet not vegan). Yours truly, Vicious Meat Eater

[@georgebilbruck1821]

Oh and let's not forget that sour "CREAM", derived from milk, which is not vegan. LOLOLOLOL

[@shirinf333]

+George Bilbruck Wow, it's vegan cheese and vegan sour cream dude. Isn't that obvious, or you're just being annoying?

[@kquinta3]

Just made this and currently eating. It is so unbelievably good and the cheesy taquitos would fool anyone into thinking it had dairy. Much happiness in my tummy right meow.

[@hotforfood]

+kquinta3 yaaaay

[@TaliaDaSilva]

WHY DO I KEEP COMING BACK TO THIS VIDEO

[@hotforfood]

cause its epic ;)

[@missyblahmissyhah]

i've watched this so many times too

[@Stiiggy]

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. I've also made this recipe like 5x already. I'm obsessed with this dish, best thing ever

[@christysanchez6468]

Talia Da Silva dude I was wondering the same I've watched it like 10 times

[@DestaneeofHOPE]

Same! I've watched this video at least twice every couple months. Side note, I've actually did this recipe and it was amazing! No surprise there.

[@rosey315]

whenever I see one of your videos I pause it and fix my bed so I'm all comfy and ready.

[@Tubsz47]

Omg, before I watch I get a drink and snack, light a joint and zone out.

[@SinMiedo071811]

That crunch when you bite into the taquitos has me dead 😲 NEED those in my life ASAP

[@HoneybunchofOnionTops]

that crunch sound though!!

[@kindlykenna8032]

You're so different from other vegan channels! You guys have helped me go vegan and it's the best decision I have ever made. Yalls recipes have helped me so much!

[@vuelaaltopaloma5455]

ok i'm mexican, and normally when i see "mexican" recipes they disappoint me, but this one looks REALLY GOOD! and the those "taquitos" are called Flautas :)

[@claudette6758]

Agreed!

[@hammockmonk]

In Thailand, they are called ทาโก้. ;-P

[@minadupre4021]

We call them taquitos dorados here in Guadalajara

[@Time2getschwifty]

I'm from Morelos near Puebla & we call them taquitos! :)

[@michaelbalfour3170]

Hey do you have any Mexican channels you recommend for making authentic food? Many thanks!

[@tamcon72]

I'm a trained culinarian[chef is a bit poncy a title for me] and all I can say is that I am very impressed with your gut instincts in the kitchen; you can't train that into a person. Well done! Thanks for posting : )

[@sophiadeng8889]

Im seriously in LOVE with this channel

[@involucionada]

I love the way she says "taquitos"

[@kiwedinikwe1087]

I love these vides, you're so fricken creative.

[@Offme791]

Oh my god Lauren you need to open an all vegan restaurant 😍😍

[@linzcarn9179]

+MEGAN HOFFMAN AGREED!!!

[@ibebre10]

+MEGAN HOFFMAN OMG PLEASE

[@marianalevi9507]

+MEGAN HOFFMAN I would defiantly pay for this meal! :)

[@kisslissa]

+MEGAN HOFFMAN YESSSSSSSSS.

[@Middleearthian]

I SECOND THIS COMMENT. IT HAS TO HAPPEN.

[@AlizaFloren]

Lauren there needs to be a vegan Chopped challenge on Food Network. With your kitchen instincts you would win lol.. That would be a sick show

[@hmfoden]

Omg yaaaaas!!! Chopped where you at? Y'all need to call Lauren and get on this!!

[@katiesmith3485]

that would be awesome

[@ElinevanderLaan]

Holy crap this is the best channel for vegan recipes to impress non-vegan friends. Keep up the good content. X

[@kaisey_f]

You're SUCH a natural in the kitchen! I want to suggest an alternative for the fried taquitos for you/anyone who's interested. You can put them in a 400º F oven for 14-16 minutes until golden brown. That's how I make mine and my sensitive tummy approves ;) I wish I could eat fried food because it's soooo good. But alas, acid reflux says no.

[@ColormeLEOPARD]

Kaisey Foltz mannnn I wish I had this problem

[@noahwallace8015]

Joana Mercado no you don't, acid reflux is the worst thing to ever happen to me 😭 it deters me from eating so much good food

[@aleckscastillo]

Do you oil the tortilla or just heat it up first then roll it then bake it?! Also does the cheese ooze out? Im so excited about this comment and my serious case of GERD

[@leeluv96]

The oil is not the cause of your reflux. The flora in your stomach is out of balance. You need more acid to digest your food properly. You need more bile production. You need to focus on restoring you the environment in your gut. Start with good bacteria and work from there. Dr. Berg is a good reference. But your could just do a cold search.

[@JenniferMull93]

I have been waiting for this since your what i eat in a day.... oh my. *drooooling*

[@sontsaable]

Oh my goooooooood the sound of those taquitos........... i need to have those now

[@leslieforrrester]

Those taquitos look soooooo good!! Amazing job

[@Lycheenes]

I always get super excited for the RECIPE?! videos

[@meganmcgrath8378]

Dear Lauren, just wanna let you know that this is really my favorite channel on youtube. I love food videos, but you & jon are just so tough, funny, practical & interesting. There is nothing precious or soft about you guys, and I so look forward to these recipe videos. Please keep going, it's really some of my favorite media right now!

[@FelicimaMarie]

Allllll of your videos have such amazing quality - yall inspire me to branch out!

[@hotforfood]

THANKS Felicia :D

[@danyella2229]

Wow Lauren, you're very creative! Will have to try it soon.

[@PhobeBarrymore]

I love how relaxed and easygoing your cooking is, and it all looks amazing! I have been vegan for quite a few years now and eat a more simple diet, and your channel is the best resource for recipes for new vegans I've come across. I always recommend people watch your channel! Videos like this are so great to show people how easy it is to not eat animal products! Thank you 😚

[@camillafernando5105]

seriously we need more vegan cooking channels like these...something everyone can relate to not JUST the fullyraw diets or the raw till 4 ones because it's harder for non vegans to understand just how amazing being vegan can be! Love the video as always!

[@AF-ke9by]

I love how happy those taquitos are making you! 😁😁😁

[@hotforfood]

OH YASSSSS

[@LLawliet-pz1rm]

I've made this 4 times and finally doubled the recipe today. I could eat a whole pot by myself, it's so good. 😍 Thank you!

[@Eva-pd2qi]

Lauren I knew you were a water sign before you even mentioned it. I felt that pisces scorpio connection! I have watched all of your videos already and I keep refreshing your channel waiting for your new videos! I take you/your videos with me on my subway rides in Brooklyn, NY! You are my favorite person to watch on youtube!

[@MsSansan100]

I'm in Australia and been refreshing this page all Wednesday even though I know you guys are like 17 hours behind, I'VE BEEN SO KEEN FOR THIS!!

[@EliMae]

I've been binge watching and at the end of this episode you told me to keep binge watching. Hahahah.

[@hotforfood]

haha I KNOW what you're doing ;)

[@janewatson1496]

Elizabeth Sanchez this is so me omfg it's like the fourth time I've watched all the playlists hahah whoops 💁🏼

[@princess0sousue]

was waiting for this video FOREVER ever since u posted this on your other channel

[@RachelledelaRosa]

same. and now im more than satisfied. also probably making this tomorrow lol

[@bethsummerfield9855]

I've said this a dozen times before - but these videos provide so much inspiration and insight into my kitchen! It's transformed the way I view the random contents in my fridge. So thank you! Also that shirt (dress?) looks great on you! Cheers, Lauren + John!

[@natashamirosh1870]

how can a recipe video be so good that I've come back several times to rewatch it? Lauren, you're loved ))

[@filmsbybt]

This is unreal. I'll never stop drooling... Just Wow!! I want this I might cry haha! You're amazing Lauren! Keep it up :)

[@SarahStudt]

oh my glob this was SO worth the wait! Going to try this asap.

[@MiaStrikes]

YASSS i get so happy when I see your videos in my subscription box. Lauren I truly wish that you grow your channel and be an even bigger KZbin success than you already are cause you guys deserve it ♥︎

[@TheeMUA]

OMG!!!!! I like drooled twice!!!!! I've been waiting on this recipe I'm sooooo making this tonight!!!!!

[@tristanp2581]

it's been a month since I'm vegetarian and your channel is so amazing, I can't wait to try all of these recipe... and maybe I'm gonna end up completely vegan! I LOVE your videos thank you so much!

[@pqma8697]

I'm not a vegan, but I absolutely love your videos and recipes!

[@adrianagamez257]

looks great! Those thin tacos are called flautas here in Mexico

[@SenoritaConejita]

I loooove flautas! Especially de papa con queso vegano. 😍 Btw, do you find it hilarious that folks buy salsa instead of making it? It's so easy to make!

[@adrianagamez257]

I know right! like store bought salsa its a no no in my house

[@SenoritaConejita]

Adriana Gamez Hahaha, same here. I only first tried it at school and was appalled. I thought it was uncooked spaghetti sauce. lolol

[@ccloverl]

Pero creo que más bien hizo tacos dorados porque las flautas tienen una tortilla muy larga! :) Se me hizo un poco raro que no le pusiera tortillas fritas a su sopa de tortilla pero buen, igual se ve muy bueno

[@mcresent]

+SenoritaConejita yes potatoes and/ or mushroom in the flautas!

[@korrmc]

I binge for sure. I even binge on your personal channel. No shame

[@itssewxtra1713]

I'm gonna cry too! This is the tastiest looking dish I think you have made and that is hard to decide. It's just so amazing looking and you cleaned out the fridge to make it besides. Winter and soup season is coming here in NZ and this is such a lovely recipe. I have had tortilla soup with a cheese in it that actually resembles tofu and I may try that too. Thanks for sharing your genius with us once again Lauren.

[@SweetNovember000]

I'm so hungry, so jelly that you have so many vegan things where you live

[@jonmcfarland8431]

I just fell in love with Mexican food again! I can't wait to make this.

[@rememberhannah]

By far my favourite channel on KZbin! You guys are killing the game so hard

[@kathrynlippa1949]

This channel has quickly become my favorite on KZbin! You two are amazing!

[@cypressmoon5090]

thanks Lauren for inspiring me to be more creative in the kitchen. I definitely needed help when I chose the vegan lifestyle and you and John's recipes have guided me in the right delicious journey. thanks!!

[@Kianaonyoutube]

This looks freakin incredible. This was worth the wait.

[@BEASTLYKIMCHI]

Thank you Lauren for inspiring me to think outside the box with my leftovers! After watching I used my leftover pasta sauce and whipped up a similar dish! Every time I make pasta I struggle with what to do with the leftover sauce... makes a great base for tortilla soup, would have never thought beyond the label!

[@gemmai7016]

Lauren you're honestly so talented and you should really be proud of that!

[@coopercalled]

I love this show concept! I love to cook but sometimes I'm at a loss with what to do with leftover ingredients. This is really inspiring! I'm not even vegan or vegetarian but I really want to cook more vegan food in the new year. Thanks for the inspiration Lauren :)

[@hotforfood]

awesome!!!! Happy cooking

[@sarahkoehler6132]

Hi Lauren (and John)! Thank you so much for sharing - your food always looks so delicious. I'm not a vegan, but I always enjoy watching your videos and recipes, and I can't wait to try some of these :) keep on cooking!

[@95marcy]

To be honest, I've been watching your videos for about a month or two and contemplating becoming vegan since watching your videos. I've pretty much been a meat eater for most of my life with a few times of being vegetarian but decided ti become vegan 2 days ago. Honestly it is one of the best decisions I've made.It's only day two and I already feel better about myself physically and mentally! Thank you so much for inspiring me! Everything you make looks so delicious!

[@EmilieJoy]

This is amazing Lauren!!!! Can't wait to give it a try

[@mbrower08]

Perfect weather for a soup here in NY! I love your recipes?! especially because that is how I love to cook. I typically don't use actual recipes, just for basic inspiration and then I make my own variances. I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOUR COOKBOOK THOUGH!

[@hotforfood]

THANK YOU!!!!

[@ZAMR2]

Binge watching is literally what ends up happening when I come across your videos! Love them!

[@chibimena]

[@SonaliMankaSingh]

I made a cashew based pasta sauce from following your videos & it was AMAZING. So creamy. I'm thinking of making a white sauce with it, because it was my granddad's fave.

[@sergiocarreon6673]

As a taquito lover, I really appreciate this recipe! Gonna try the soup pretty soon. Thanks, Lauren!

[@rothyroth1]
