I made the lentil potato “stoup” last night and it was/is delicious. I appreciate that the recipe had regular ingredients already in my cupboards. And, it was the first time I used my IP to its full potential and the first time I felt full since starting my WFPB lifestyle this month. I look forward to purchasing and using your cookbook! Thank you.

Great recipe's. I would make them in my slow cooker. I 95% of the time eat whole plants foods, eating 5% vegan junk processed foods. Kale is my favourite green vegetable but I also love sweet potatoes and vegetables in general. My favourite fruit are berries. I can eat nuts and seeds, legumes and beans and grains. Spices and herbs flavour my food.😋😋😋

Hi Nisha! Just got an instant pot and I’m waiting on your cookbook in the mail. Super excited! I tried the oats as you make them here but with apples and they completely dissolved into the oatmeal. Is there a rule against apples in pressure cooking and that’s why you used pears or did i do something wrong? Lol
@RainbowPlantLife5 жыл бұрын
Hi Anthony! Yay, that makes me happy to hear! Ha there's no rule against apples - it would depend on how small you cut them and the variety (I believe a firm variety like Fuji would hold up better than say Red Delicious). But in general, the 12 minute cook time is going to soften the fruit up quite a bit so it almost melts into the oatmeal and naturally sweetens it...so you probably didn't do anything wrong!

@RainbowPlantLife5 жыл бұрын
Hi Randall, I try to share meals that are accessible, easy to make, and delicious and that will appeal to both vegans and non vegans alike. I do use some oil in my cooking, though I try to be mindful of how much. Oil is often very useful and sometimes necessary to achieve the right texture and taste (I.e., browning or caramelizing veggies), and I pride myself on making delicious food above anything else. I am vegan for ethical and environmental reasons, and while the health reasons are certainly important, they are secondary to the ones I mentioned above. I certainly believe that eating a diet rich in fruits, vegetables whole-grains, legumes etc. is the best diet, but I am not someone who strictly adheres to a whole food plant-based diet (I love dessert too much haha). I totally understand that some people who follow a whole food plant-based diet avoid oil and I respect that. I do have some oil free recipes and will be sharing more this year. I also know that a lot of people have adapted my recipes to be oil free, either using water or vegetable broth. Hope that helps!

Hey, im really considering buying an instant pot, but I feel like I really cant justify it when I have an oven (with stovetop). Do you feel like there is a difference? And also, when im making stews with lentils I always have to stir in between because the lentils sink down and get stuck in the bottom. How is that avoided in the instantpot?

@RainbowPlantLife4 жыл бұрын
Oils are derived from plants, seeds, and nuts and are therefore vegan! They might not be the the best ingredient for heart disease but they are vegan. I use oil where necessary to achieve a certain texture, unlock certain flavor compounds during cooking, or where needed to prevent sticking such as in the instant pot. My most important criteria in my recipes is making them taste good so they will appeal to a wide group of people. If you are interested in oil free recipes, I’d suggest searching for oil free vegan recipes and/or whole food plant based recipes.
@LadyLuv10010 ай бұрын
Oil is vegan. If you're on an oil free diet all you have to do is use water instead of the oil. You would need to keep an eye on it through as water can dry out when you're sautéing onions etc and then tip a little more water as required. Using oil is by far more flavourful though.
