vegan eggplant lasagna rolls ups | hot for food

[@cavyasharma]

I never really liked eggplant but recently I've been OBSESSED. My favorite easy way to cook it is cubed, tossed with olive oil, curry powder, garlic powder, salt & pepper and then roasting til it's caramelized and soft. It's perfect!!! Highly recommend.

[@amandatorres6911]

She is the most expressive eater, I just love it!

[@scruffylookingnerfherder1983]

Don’t worry Lauren, we know this is DELICIOUS and not some way of using veggies in place of noodles because of some bullshit fear of carbs everyone seems to have these days. Eggplant rollatini is a tried and true Italian American classic. I can’t wait to serve these at Christmas.

[@marystestkitchen]

Aww I love eggplant! It just soaks up flavour so well!

[@StrifeLightning]

Me too! Eggplant is very versatile also!

[@irisanevermore2276]

hey mary i love your vids !!!!

[@fatboydayoungan]

Her cooking is so good and it’s tasty I’ve been writing down her recipes so that I cook for my future wife one day

[@Ella.L.]

That's kinda cute

[@putoffia]

That’s so sweet and thoughtful ☺️

[@hipsie6587]

DaReal Youngin just get the Hot for Food cookbook man. Whatchudoin

[@majahribar7061]

soo nice and thoughtful! your future wife will eat like a queen!

[@jessicaneissl9489]

I know. the carbonara is to die for. I am having it every week for the past 2 months haha i should cook more often from her recipes. Lauren i must thank you from the bottom of my heart for the carbonara recipe. So delicious

[@sweetpotato4251]

The musical choice for this was perfect!

[@michaelandkrystaltucker6091]

Can't get enough of eggplant. It's nice to see a recipe from my childhood getting a vegan update! - Michael

[@CoffeeattheBeach]

No clue why I never even considered a mandoline for my eggplant...hello...changed my life

[@msg4firuza]

I made it at home. Its so good so good

[@rolom3]

You've proven that nails can be short but still look really nice!

[@hotforfood]

rolom3 I hate long nails!!! On me :)

[@anjalic4654]

just cryin in my dorm room cause I'm homesick for Laurens cooking... and i've never actually had her cooking...

[@isabelarodriguez2479]

Alright, the assembly was so pleasing to watch

[@samanthafry5395]

I love you! Every time I see your videos pop up I immediately click on them! Still as excited to watch your videos now as I was a few years ago. You’re the queen ❤️

[@suppbubz9543]

Made this and it was delicious! Changes made: Used vegan ground beef crumble stuff instead of lentils (used more seasonings than stated... everywhere lol) Our eggplant didn't get dry so it was hard time cutting it when cooked but it was still good Used lemon juice and nutritional yeast in our tofu instead of apple cider vinegar (doubled the tofu ricotta cause I like lasagna cheesy) Got lazy and didn't roll the eggplant and just layered like traditional lasagna Made about 6 servings

[@mzoesp]

Looks amazing. I would add walnuts as well to the lentil mix and after it's all well cooked/browned use a potato masher and mash it all up a bit. Delish

[@malloryrobinson6418]

OMG Lauren I love all the innuendos in your videos. You are my favorite Vegan cooking channel

[@kcmoore777]

Lauren never talk negatively toward your food. Only loving words to your food. That eggplant is made up of a lot of water and water has memory so every time I cook I send it good vibes and say Love and gratitude to it. All food made with love.

[@tamikapennington7325]

LAUREN! I just bought the Vegan Comfort Classics cookbook in store in the United States. I LOVE your videos, and you’ve really inspired me to look at cooking as fun, challenging, and oh-so rewarding instead of just, “crap... I forgot to meal prep again.” I’m so excited to crack this baby open and make some GOOD vegan food. Thank you for what you do! Much love!

[@jessicapalaszynski6913]

Your feelings towards eggplant hit home with me... it just makes me work too hard to love it.

[@jeenalbafna]

I have a love/hate relationship with eggplant since I was little girl (problems if you grew up in a Indian household).... but NOW I LOVE EGGPLANT incorporated into other dishes besides Indian cuisine for some reason! Thanks god! I went grocery shopping and I brought eggplant! Kitchen here I COME!

[@karenalexandre9778]

Jeenal same here, raised in Italian American family. Yummy but what a pain in the ass to cook! ❤️/🤬🍆

[@jeenalbafna]

@@karenalexandre9778 Excalty!

[@lilyxo2927]

Thank you so much for this recipe, Lauren! It’s perfect for those of us who have gluten issues and/or are trying to avoid processed foods like pasta. Such a perfectly delicious recipe😍💖

[@lucycarter3041]

I’m usually not that into mushrooms or eggplant but this looks so good

[@sayhellochica4352]

Another of your recipes added to my favorites! Thanks Lauren!

[@justingooding647]

Mouth is watering as you roll them up, WOW, can't wait to try!!

[@zzzing23]

I think your green pea pesto from hot for food cook book would be good in this recipe Lauren!!! Looks really good!

[@katirib]

In the Caribbean we cut it in cubes and soak in water to get rid of most o fthe seeds then fry it up.with tomato paste, onion tomatoes and garlic..some soy sauce, seasonings and add water to make a stew. Goes great with rice.

[@thejanuaryvibe]

I made eggplant parm already using my leftover tofu cream cheese and it was bomb but THIS. Need!

[@Farmword]

I believe you. It looks like it’s so tasty. You know what you are doing girl. Thanks!

[@julianaferry]

All my favorite things together!!😋

[@nicolefaith9972]

I’ve made the tofu cream cheese 3 times already and love it. Great in sandwiches and even turned it into a creamy pasta sauce.

[@gevvy]

This looks delicious! I just made the cinnamon rolls from your cookbook and they were out of this world. Sweet and cinnamony and perfect to peel apart with your fingers. Excellent.

[@hotforfood]

amazing! thanks for letting us know :D

[@LIVEKINDLY]

This looks heavenly! 😍

[@jeneeschultze523]

I really wish I was eating this right now! Looks so delicious 🤤

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Great recipe and video. Good idea to use Eggplant, it makes a change from standard lasagna pasta. I don't mind doing the preparation because the end result is worth the effort.

[@koda-skyshoolman1901]

I need to make this! Love your food! Have made some many of your fabulous recipes! 💕

[@reachtrita]

I love lasagna. Thank you for a different way to make it. I want to use eggplant more often but never had any recipe ideas for it. I’ve had sushi at a Japanese restaurant where they grilled it with sweet eel sauce (sweet soy sauce) and top it over sushi rice. The delicate texture resembles grilled mackerel or tuna!! Yumm!!

[@ocarinachic76]

gonna make this for the family for meatless monday! it looks so good!

[@thelamb89]

never been an eggplant fan... but this recipe could change all that!

[@midnightscreamer2481]

Try eggplant bacon it's the best "bacon" I've ever tasted.

[@ellinidatriandafilo5710]

You've outdone yourself again!!! AMAZING

[@yinaninjaplatypus]

A MASTERPIECE! But which one of your recipes isn’t? So creative and looks delectable x

[@linae4617]

I made this lasagna for my birthday dinner last night and it was a hit🏆 Thank you so much for sharing! Love your channel and hope that Santa brings me your book this year 😉

[@AKitchenAdvisor]

Eggplant is so succulent and juicy. Great recipe. Happy cooking

[@Ella.L.]

So easy and healthy; love it!

[@TXPRiNCEZZ09]

I've never been crazy about eggplant either but this looks really good!!!

[@susanp5393]

I recommend that you grill the eggplant slices first, but your recipe sounds delicious. I am going to make this dish for sure.

[@Harjas08]

I love you! And I love eggplant! That’s just how it goes. So excited to try a new eggplant recipe. Thanks Lauren! :)

[@AS-uy2ud]

Looks soooo goood!! I'll try it, but maybe layer it like a lasagne to make it quick and easier.

[@kristinesedlak4230]

Excited to try this with real ricotta and ground beef or chicken. Such a wonderful low carb recipe. Yum!

[@Anastasia-um8zs]

I saw your cookbook was nominated for a GoodReads book of the year award in the cookbook catagory. Congrats! I voted for you. : ]

[@megano.3434]

I've had eggplant a couple times and although I don't love it, I don't hate it either. I've never cooked with it myself though, so here's the golden opportunity! I've been craving lasagna roll-ups actually- I made some awhile back that won second place in a lasagna cook-off and no one knew they were vegan until after they voted! BOOM! Thanks for another great recipe Lauren!!

[@christinamata3405]

Why does everyone hate eggplant? I love it. I just made eggplant "parm" yesterday (it was really vegan mozzarella). I'm excited to try this.

[@orangejmoothies]

I used to hate eggplant too but now i love it because it can get soft and gooey. So eating something like a thinly layered eggplant parm is sooo delicious because everything is saucy and soft :P

[@joRilo]

I'll be making this tonight

[@antv5470]

Just had one of the BEST LASAGNA EVER ♥️😭 it’s worth all the effort

[@ashleys.3439]

I just made this but with actual pasta sheets and it was so good 😩💕

[@terisaccone4238]

Genius recipe I did not realize is in the book ! X

[@DonyaLane]

I might have to bring this to Thanksgiving this year.

[@annawessman4029]

I was JUST thinking of Parmigiana the other day, haha :) Lovely recipe! Rollups are understated, VERY! Thanks for the tip! Tofu queen, I bow down humbly!

[@sarahsahara3527]

Thought about making your vegan scallops and spaghetti tonight... No- gonna have to wait until tomorrow! Lasagna comes first!!

[@MsVanessaB25]

Wow it looks super good I may have to make it for thanksgiving for myself 😁

[@EllenBeal]

Eggplant is my favorite!!! It’s so silky!

[@Razberry52]

omg this looks incredible Lauren! she's done it again!

[@JonesLeFae]

This looks really good! I have an eggplant lasagna recipe on my channel, but it is totally different. I make the eggplant into a sauce. It is so good - but I definitely want to try this method!

[@m2pm85]

that cream cheese it's bomb!! it's already a staple in our house!! thx 4 the recipe

[@kristinkiely]

This is RIGHT up my alley!! My next Sunday dinner 😋😋😋😋

[@null6955]

im watching this thinking "eww eggplant whyy" but then you said you hate it too! i'm definitely gonna try making this now haha

[@easypeasyvegan1797]

That looks incredibly delicious! and I love eggplants so even better lol

[@4themotherload]

I hate pumpkin/squash and sweet potato but eggplant is amazing; as I have started to eat more plant based I make eggplant parm now instead of using meat and its fantastic. I can honestly say I don't miss the meat and in someways its richer if that makes sense. Great video!

[@pv2185]

my sister and i were super picky eaters growing up but we absolutely loved sri lankan tamil EGGPLANT CURRY. you’ve got to try it. the eggplant is spiced and deep fried. It’s either in a wet curry or “curried” and fried and tossed with raw/pickled onions and thin strips of green and red peppers. TRY IT!! i won’t eat eggplant any other way, only fried!

[@PtolemyXVII]

Wow!! I'm making this over the weekend! 😍

[@VOLYAFOOD]

Hey. We cook in Russia like this. Very simple and quick to prepare rolls. ✔ Prepare the filling: ▪︎oil fry with garlic ▪︎ add grated cauliflower ▪︎ remove from heat and cool ▪︎ Add cauliflower to green onions, parsley, mascarpone, grated almonds, salt / pepper to taste and apple cider vinegar ✔ Cut the eggplants into thin slices ✔ Fry on both sides in coconut oil ✔ Put the stuffing and wrap roll. You can watch the video on our channel.

[@jennybushnell9995]

I'm also gonna make eggplant lasagna using the sliced lasagna as the noodles. Thanks!

[@hotforfood]

Great idea!

[@jennybushnell9995]

Oops I meant the sliced eggplant as the noodles! Lol! I made it was so good and I didn't feel heavy with all those noodles! !

[@sundawg911]

I love eggplant. So excited to try.

[@vanessamunoz4357]

Omg can’t wait to make it!

[@juuleuh]

omg this looks amazing

[@almabowman3813]

That looks amazing!!!!!

[@hayleyrobbins6977]

I love eggplant! That would would delicious on top of a vegan alfredo sauce pasta!

[@YunisRajab]

I would skip the rolling and just layer the eggplants like regular lasagna

[@Ella.L.]

Yeah, but then make sure to cut thicker slices - otherwise it will tear apart.

[@cherylfox9992]

I couldn't agree more! ~I'm not vegan~ I just thought it's a "little labor intensive I'd just make lasagna" while reading the comments lol

[@cherylfox9992]

That's why shes got a KZbin channel with about 1/2 million viewers and I don't. Lol

[@he1802]

Rollups are better if you're hosting a party or so

[@jalyassin]

That looks frikkin delicious 😋

[@carolinar316]

I do myself such a disservice watching this hungry😞🤤

[@megano.3434]

I've learned to always have a snack handy when watching the new hotforfood video- it's necessary.. haha

[@theelliecorsie]

Why do you use fresh and granulated garlic in the same recipe? Will they not add the same flavor? Love your recipes!! xx

[@dibamoca9885]

I’ve only used eggplant in ratatouille but this looks so delicious and totally worth trying. Thanks Lauren 🙂

[@LC-tw3gl]

Anyone else already try this dish at Planta in Toronto?

[@Criselcustoms]

Omg i make eggplant lasagna all the time but i never thought to use it in place of noodles

[@samanthaguy6382]

lauren! this looks amazing! thank you for sharing this recipe!!

[@natassjajessica]

LOVE THAT ONE!! THANK YOU!!

[@jennybushnell9995]

I love it without noodles so fresh thanks! !

[@hotforfood]

My pleasure 😊

[@linzertube]

Looks yummy! 😃👍💜

[@lizcarr6329]

This looks so amazing, never watch Lauren's videos on an empty stomach or you might be disappointed by your own cooking 😂

[@JulianaAbate]

this looks amazing 😍

[@jennycosculluelamoreno3566]

I’ll definitely try it

[@crosamond]

I would wanna use your almond ricotta for this 😍😍 best ever

[@beans9298]

So making this! I made the totsgiving casserole on Monday...i literally had to hold back from eating the whole damn thing in one sitting. ❤

[@flyvegan]

Eggplant is so good I'm sure this will be a hit.😍😍😍

[@kimcote9964]

#1 ... I LOVE that shirt woman!! Edit later. LMFAO... Lauren looks at the egg plant and tells it.. I don't like you!! Dying.. you are so much like me in the kitchen.. I have to say that I talk not only to my dogs all the time, I also talk to my food!! Love you so much. You are a special woman.

[@veganvegan-lg2il]

Perfect!

[@joRilo]

LOVE THIS

[@KingstonMusician]

Lauren what was the mozza shred you put on top at the end? Was that some vegan shred thingy? Going to try to make this, looks yummy!

[@GothicaBeauty]

These sound amazing. @LaurenToyota have you tried The Coconut Company chocolate pots made from coconut 🥥 cream from Lidl? I got them to try for the first time today & they’re delicious.

[@franziagirl]

Holy Moly!! You are on a roll!!! hahah Yummy!!!!
