VEGAN KETO 'CHICKEN' PASTA BAKE (my take on chicken tetrazzini!)

[@Eco_Hiko]

I love how friendly this channel is for every diet. There's more options than a Starbucks coffee menu.

[@marystestkitchen]

haha thank youuu

[@stevenkarter7259]

I absolutely ❤️ your channel. 4 years watching you and still cannot wait for you to tell me this is my vegan nom noms and there ARE no rules 😋

[@marystestkitchen]

You're the best! Thanks, Steven 🤗

[@rosalynpriceenglish3809]

It's so comforting to hear your voice again! I love the relaxed vibe of your music too. This looks delicious, can't wait to make it!!

[@marystestkitchen]

Hope you enjoy!

[@mimishimaineko1173]

Thanks, Mimi!

I have made a sauce using the lupin flour. It turned out very good. I used home-made not strained soy milk even and it turned out delicious. I used it as a base for vegan "Gorgonzola" sauce. Fermented bean curd for taste (the one from Shin-Chuan with sesame oil) and kale for optics (to imitate the mold look). I will use that sauce as a base for different sauces ("Gorgonzola", celery, fishy - nori and kombu, mushroom powder) on Christmas for our families traditional raclette. Thank you so much for the inspiration.

[@marystestkitchen]

That's awesome! Really sounds wonderful and I'm honored that you found the spark of inspiration from this!

[@dibamoca9885]

I didn’t even know I needed this in my life, but after watching the video, I definitely do!!!😋

[@marystestkitchen]

Enjoy!🤗

[@nirateller5603]

Dear Mary, this is one of the most delicious vegan keto recipe I've ever heard about. Thank you so much. I sure am going to make it

[@marystestkitchen]

Please do!

[@newmexivegan6737]

Looks delicious as always Mary

[@marystestkitchen]

Thanks so much, Kenny!

[@tlsnana9539]

I’m watching this at 6 am. I’m so hungry and it looks so yummy!! Thank you for sharing. By the way, surely I’m not the first, but I’ve started putting my rehydrated soy curls in my old salad spinner. Perfect! And, since they don’t stick, it’s an easy clean after.

[@marystestkitchen]

Amazing tip!❤️

[@sandylee1717]

Thank you Mary I am honored and this looks fantastic‼️

[@marystestkitchen]

You're most welcome!

[@avgc]

Welp I am definitely going to have to make this sometime this fall! Thanks, Mary and Sandy!

[@marystestkitchen]

Hope you enjoy!

[@denine5232]

Yum😋 Thanks Sandy and Mary👍

[@marystestkitchen]

Thank you too 🤗

[@shellyt556]

This looks great! Time to bring out my spiralizer!

[@marystestkitchen]

Go for it!

[@tamcon72]

I, too, am a wuss about the boiled shroom method, though I trust the Stache! It's just such a violation of everything I ever learned about mushroom cooking! This is a wonderful looking pasta bake for the early autumn, and though not low-carb, I like the idea of parcooked zoodles and lupini flour. I might just make the sauce from lupini beans, or half and half with cashews. Thanks so much for posting, Mary!

[@marystestkitchen]

That's the thing! Boiling mushrooms just goes against everything I ever thought I knew haha Thanks for the kind comment. Please let me know how it goes when you try the sauce :-)

[@miss_m_yt]

Mary would you consider doing a dedicated video on your tendinitis. I have a friend who suffers from it and this would be so helpful for them!

[@marystestkitchen]

Thanks for the suggestion

[@easycookingtutorial8030]

Absolutely ❤️ your content ,....nice sharing 😊

[@marystestkitchen]

Thank you so much!

[@sarahdee374]

I always appreciate the use of much "cleaner" soy curls (instead of heavily processed store bought faux chicken). Not saying I don't occasionally eat, but I try to keep it occasional. I always rehydrate my soy curls in veggie or chicken-ish or nooch broth. Really makes a difference.

[@marystestkitchen]

Same!

[@teresasunny]

omg this looks so good!!

[@marystestkitchen]

It IS!😁✌️

[@Kx____]

truly looks so delicious thanks

[@marystestkitchen]

You're very welcome ❤️ thanks for watching ☺️

You're most welcome, Kim 😊 thanks for watching!

[@ayanaclark-brown8045]

This looks so yummy! I can't believe I've never had soy curls before

[@marystestkitchen]

Now is your time to try them!🤗

[@burnellvassarmd4670]

Beautiful video, thank you❣

[@marystestkitchen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cindijgzoo]

Looks amazing!

[@marystestkitchen]

Thanks, Cindi! Hope you enjoy it too :-)

[@tofu-munchingCoalition.ofChaos]

Lupine flour. Something to try. Nice.

[@marystestkitchen]

I'm excited for the possibilties!

[@MsBuggyness]

this is perfect! My teenage son is pre-diabetic and controls his blood sugar(and weight) right now by watching sugar and carbs and my husband and I are vegetarian. I can tweak this recipe a bit (use real cheese or cream) and would be something we all can eat, lol. soy curls are low carb, I love them! I wish i could get them locally (but have to rely on amazon).

[@marystestkitchen]

I'm so glad to help!

[@WindellDianthus]

this looks so good! any thoughts on how will it would freeze?

[@marystestkitchen]

if you make it with regular pasta noodles, it will freeze fine. Zucchini noodles are the worst when frozen (imo)

[@WindellDianthus]

@@marystestkitchen thank you! shame about the zucchini

[@littlevoice_11]

There seems to be lots of Keto porridge and granola but I can't find any keto versions of Weetabix or Shreddies. Maybe something you could discover in store OR even make at home 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@theroyalfamily17M]

*WOW SO MUCH DELICIOUS FOOD 😋*

[@marystestkitchen]

Thank you 😋

[@sarahhelmer6559]

Where do you buy your soy curls in Calgary? Everywhere online has such high shipping fees. Love this recipe looks incredible can’t wait to try

[@marystestkitchen]

I wait for free shipping offers and buy online in bulk tbh. You can also get them from Homey Foods in Calgary. Price is a little higher.

[@lilachlipel4205]

I love, love, love your channel ❤ 🔹For less carbohydrates > use macadamia (4 in 100), instead of cashews (30 in 100). It's fatty like cashews, but very few carbohydrates. Yes, macadamia is expensive >> so make half and half with grounded almonds (9 in 100) and you'll get an excellent cheesy cream for the sauce 🏆 ⏩ Q : is there a low-carb vegan cheese you like, witb good ingredients that you recommend? Is there anything on Amazon (Europe is better for me) that looks good to you? Thanks in advance 🙏💛

[@marystestkitchen]

Thanks for sharing that information :-) I just used cashews because they were already in my pantry but you're right. They are not the lowest in carbs!

[@kagutomnorthtv7852]

amazing food recipe in other country

[@marystestkitchen]

Thank you!

[@sharonldove]

Hi Mary from Toronto. Do you have any ideas for wheat free gyros? I'm not plant based myself but looking for ways to reduce my meat consumption. Thanks

[@marystestkitchen]

Make gyros but use soy-curls soaked in a tasty marinade :-)

[@emmac8606]

I’ve been kind of wary of trying soy curls (I’ve seen them in the Latin American grocery store as “carne de soya,” I’m pretty sure that’s the same thing), but this has me reconsidering hmmmm. I’d be curious to know more about how they compare to chicken

[@marystestkitchen]

As long as you add enough flavour, I think it's one of the best vegan chicken alternatives! Go for it :-)

[@thatsalt1560]

No soy curls of any kind where I live. 😔 I am surrounded by soy fields, but no curls.

[@lenisemicolon]

IMO soy curls are the best vegan meat substitute and they have just 1 ingredient. All you need to do is cook them in chickenless stock or beefless stock after rehydrating and they’re amazing, but there are plenty of recipes on youtube of more creative ways to use them. I think TVP also works the same or similarly, just doesn’t come in the strip format 🤔

[@lynneyoung7270]

How much shirataki noodles? The brand i use looks like it is a smaller package than the one you used. -- thanks for the low carb option!

[@marystestkitchen]

I used a 385g package of Better than Pasta organic konjac noodles :-)

[@dr.dana.fraser.photography]

#reciperequest Hi Mary. I’d love to see lots of different kinds of dips 😊

[@marystestkitchen]

I LOVE that idea!

[@kaweis4798]

Do you take both Seed capsules and AG1?

[@marystestkitchen]

AG1 is the only one I can remember everyday! And that's because I crave it in the morning now :-)

[@lmewilliams1]

What brand of soy curls do you use?

[@marystestkitchen]

Butler's Soy Curls! Actually, I think only Butler's are "soy curls" made from whole soy beans. All others are some variations on TVP and not are not really the same thing.

[@pepperpalmerston9206]

How many does this serve?

[@marystestkitchen]

Should be about 4

[@BettyHorn]

Yum!!!

[@marystestkitchen]

It was SO GOOD! Thanks for the comment, Betty

[@BettyHorn]

@@marystestkitchen I am currently trying low carb vegan to try to control my diabetes. I tried hclf and my blood sugars are all over the place. With low carb I use less insulin and my blood sugars are more even. But I resist keto because I need more protein than allowed on keto, and I don't do well with 70% fat! I guess I have to find my own way.

[@marystestkitchen]

@@BettyHorn Oh I know the pain of hclf! I tried it for my tendonitis and it got SO much worse. One experience I'll share is you don't necessarily have to stick to the regular keto macros to be in ketosis. I just concentrate on having no starchy carbs, plentiful protein (especially since plant-based protein is less bioavailable) and be a bit free-handed with the olive oil ;-)

[@BettyHorn]

@@marystestkitchen thank you. I appreciate your suggestions and will try them! I don't want to do away with carbs, just learn to moderate them with the rest of my diet. I'm so tired of crashing or my sugars going sky high! Thanks again.

[@marystestkitchen]

@@BettyHorn no worries! We all have to find what works for us

The only thing I know about Chicken Tetrazzini is that once on Jerry Springer a woman accused her sister of trying to seduce her husband because she made him Chicken Tetrazzini.

oh my GOSH haha

There were two noodles. Zucchini noodles is one, what’s the other?

shirataki noodles

thanks for asking! i used better than pasta organic konjac spaghetti

[@phillippinter7518]

I guessed spaghetti squash because it was an "fall bake"

[@phillippinter7518]

But I did correctly guess lupini beans on the comments section of the last video

[@phillippinter7518]

@@marystestkitchen I thought that's what you said in the video? Lupins aka lupini beans ? Same thing
