All the best,
Dave & Steve.

For people who don’t want to use wine or eat something with alcohol in it, I tend to use unsweetened grape juice with a little swig of grape or wine vinegar. Usually does the trick ;).

[@emilylouise158]

I love how you feed each other and share the same spoon! Haha

[@SkunkyLorrie]

Looks delicious and so easy! I’m totally making this. Idea for theme: how about breakfast? I’m always looking to spice up breakfast or brunch

[@natalialopes719]

For april, spring fruits and veggies. Strawberry rhubarb, spring peas with their tendrils, baby greens, spring turnip greens, watercress, etc. I love all the spring fruits and veggies.

[@nmccutcheon2243]

Natalia Lopes I’ve been in love with pea shoots lately. They are finally available were I live. I put them in just about everything.

[@davidthescottishvegan]

All the pasta recipes this month have been great. I had Broccoli and Garlic pasta for dinner tonight. Spring vegetables would be a great suggestion for April.

[@mjgeib]

Another wonderful recipe!!!

[@ArnaudWijbinga]

Nice one! How about April bowl? Buddha bowl, Mexican bowl, umami bowl, Italian bowl, lots a veg and variety :)

[@SkunkyLorrie]

Arno Wijno that’s a great idea

[@tallmantoo]

Like this too!

[@cristianbordeanu1353]

Yes!! :D

[@sineadryan4424]

Oh my holy me, I just cooked this and I've not tasted anything so good in so long...idk why people go out to eat when this tastes 108383x better!!!

[@nmccutcheon2243]

Dudes! Over 300k subs! I’ve been here since 92k. I love following y’all on Snapchat. Morning swims and breakfast on the beach. Epic! Thanks for sharing. Oh, and this pasta bake.........YUM! Love from Atlanta, Ga.

[@nmccutcheon2243]

Okay, I’ve read through the comments, all great ideas. Here’s mine. Legumes. We know chickpeas make excellent hummus, falafel, socca, scrambles and quiche. I’ve been exploring how to use all legumes for everything from no meats to tortillas, to crackers. Bean flour of all kinds are on my radar. I’d love to see what y’all could do with it.

[@deboramariariva587]

If you like italian pasta try Pizzoccheri, which are a type of short tagliatelle, made with 80% buckwheat flour and 20% wheat flour. When classically prepared in the alpes, they are cooked along with greens and cubed potatoes, and (vegan) cheese 😉

[@bridmcgrath5363]

Congratulations on 300,000 subs!!!!! U deserve it!!!!! Cheers dudes!!!!✌🏻💚😀😁

[@thehappypear]

Thanks so much Brid!! Sending you some love! ❤️❤️

[@czek00ladowa]

Salads! Definitely 🍲🍲🍲🍲!

[@sarahaldridge9866]

April suggestion - I'd love some Asian dishes for April, stir fry, noodle soups etc.. and how about using Korean Kimchi for our fermented goodness :)

[@inderpreetkhalsa2253]

Sweet and sour soup! Black pepper something not chicken! Broccoli in spicy garlic sauce! Homemade mock meat and Chinese style garlic "chicken", sweet and sour "chicken," and orange "chicken" please!

[@TheDiscountVegan]

OMG...yeSSS YUMMM. I love how simple looking this is.

[@collmcev3266]

Yum, next pasta bake to make for the family 😋

[@studiowelland]

Love it! I miss the old school vlogs. Can I vote for a vlog soon please 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@riturner]

Mmmmmmmm... I’ve literally never had a pasta bake! Going to try!

[@TheMegaross91]

April, why not do vegan tapas? I'm making tapas for the family tomorrow and it'd be great to see your take on it things like tortilla, almondegas etc. I'm always looking to go more plant based. Great video by the way.

[@evelynbaron2004]

How did I miss this one? made something similar; rosemary/sunflower seed/sundried tomato pesto; the rest was the same (the veg base you used is called in Bologna sofrito, don't ask me what it means but I took a bunch round to a senior's building where I take The Amazing Kiwi, my one yr old therapy dog, and 90% of the residents are Italian -- at one point Toronto had the largest ex-patriot numbers of Italian citizens, mostly, not all from the south -- they use bread crumbs a lot in lieu of pecorino so they sooooooo loved it all, as did I.

[@sundaymorningletters8938]

Yay thankyou! I will definitely be trying this pasta bake.

[@mmc1086]

Thank you xox

[@carinecampier]

Beautiful recipe, I’ll definitely cut the oil 😁 I’m more of a sweet tooth, I would love a series on quick and cheap deserts

[@lili10180]

This was perfectly timed, thank you!! :)

[@thehappypear]

That la great news! Enjoy the recipe Lilli❤️❤️

[@ericagosnell3129]

April suggestion- would love to see different recipes for vegan sandwiches! breakfast, lunch and dinner sandwiches please 😂

[@JustMeJH]

How about Vegan and Gluten Free meals and breads for April? Especially the breads, as I really struggle with those. Thanks, guys. Keep making cooking fun!

[@gordon1376]

Hi Why cashews and not pine nuts which are more authentic. Also I though you would use nutritional yeast in the pesto. For next month Indian recipes would be great. Love the channel.

[@d.rabbitwhite]

Pine nuts are a bit more expensive, yet... My child is allergic to nuts so I always replace cashews with pine nuts for the creamy-ness.

[@d.rabbitwhite]

@@laurx39 They are a seed. You may want to use caution, anyway. They are fine for my child, as are all the seeds, and coconuts, but it is good use care.

[@Palalune]

Turned out great!

[@punchmehard]

This looks brilliant!

[@JUSTSOLD20]

"Feels like a belly hug", lol! Another great video. Maybe some hearty salads for April?

[@denthance1793]

Hey Dave and Steve!!! I'm a big fan of your channel, love your recipes, and watch your videos all the time! I have a Beet soup (otherwise known as Borscht) recipe I really think you guys will like! reply if your interested in the recipe :D

[@yvettekamtro5324]

I love u guys.love from zimbabwe

[@MakeItDairyFree]

this was a great last dish idea for this series. I love the idea of the roasted veg with the pasta and baked. Going to give it a go with some of our vegan parm on top! Yum!

[@brendaaspey3522]

Looks amazing, thanks guys ✌️

[@sharontobin1440]

Was yummy 😋

[@plantaetivoli1178]

Who in the hell are the 5 A holes that didn't like the video? Blows my mind how these guys are relentlessly sharing such amazing recipes. :D

[@veganpeace7890]

I need this NOW!!!!!!!

[@giulianagrobberio9565]

Hi dudes! I'm actually Italian ads make this pasta al forno very often! I usually add tofu with the sauce to get some protein inn the meal and complete it. Thank you!!

[@deborahmeyers551]

Yum 😋

[@kanetsuxp]

Bravi!! Not very Italian but I will give it a try.

[@thecleankitchen7898]

You need to try my Brussel sprout marinara and Brussel sprout pizza. Super good!

[@LittleMissLolaLove]

Love the sound of it, just seems like a lot of oil, but I can reduce that if I make it myself.

[@erinbackman1196]

Different breakfast ideas always good! And do you have different pasta sauces with protiens that you prefer?

[@daantje2956]

Looks so delicious 😍

[@tina-eatinggodsgifts7129]

Love it (except for the oil)! haha!

[@annak3380]

Looks buonissimo! And you guys are bellissimi! Grazie! Xxxx

[@MrsTabamon]

Next month suggestion; What to do with beans? I know they're super good for you, but apart from Mexican style, I don't know any tasty ways to eat them! Another idea: Easy nut free desserts :D So hard as a nut allergy vegan to find awesome dessert recipes without nuts

[@IvanIV05]

BTW if you are still looking for an inspiration for a theme for a month, how about pizza. If it is too specific you could do recipes with a dough, let's say rolls, quiche, etc, throw in a few sweet bakes too.

[@IvanIV05]

I am eating it now, not bad :)

[@marysibb]

Can you guys make a decent Alfredo sauce that doesn’t involve a head of cauliflower?

[@mindyritter7773]

What about a month of eggplant; vegan eggplant parmesan!

[@gillboyes7345]

how many does this serve?

[@nileshvasa8473]

We make this and say lasagna 😜😜😜🤘🏻🤘🏻 looks so tempting thankyou for sharing 😍😍

[@sophietopham8822]

Raw vegan April:)

[@gillboyes7345]

is there any where on here where we can see ingredients and method listed. Thanks

[@ashleigharmstead3715]

How about rice for April because I really need some recipe for rice

[@LucyDyerArt]

do a snacks month. pretty please :-)

[@cairn4095]

I love the recipe but you've added music in the background and I find it unnecessarily distracting. Please don't put music in your videos. You guys are awesome. I watch you all of the time!

[@casangel57]

lentil burgers ?

[@leighk2702]

I can't find this recipe on the website. Can anyone link me to it. I'd like to save on pinterest for next week church meeting.

[@petercurrin8413]

❤❤

[@skelfily]

would this sauce and pesto be a good lasagne?

[@skelfily]

what layer orders people

[@MiaKloseFoodTV]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@christianebuaben5232]

April, asian rice dishes

[@teresapacelli-dill825]

How about more fruit recipes?

[@mjgeib]

For April, how about oil free cooking?

[@davidthescottishvegan]

That would be an excellent idea. That's what I do because research and studies show that oil isn't healthy.

[@damien884]

Cashews are mad expensive in Sweden. Recommend a substitute?

[@d.rabbitwhite]

Maybe pine nuts? I don't know their expense outside north america. I have to use substitutes and choose them for allergy reasons.

[@damien884]

deborah rabbit white tnx for the tip

[@adambier2415]

I agree. Pine nuts are the traditional nut. I was surprised to see the change but I do love experimenting. Pistachio might also work. But not the smoked ones. Learn from my mistakes. Lol

[@damien884]

Suggestion for April: Keto vegan meals

[@pinkpoodlepaloma]

It's hard to believe 5 ppl gave this thumbs down

[@Xassefras]

Low-sodium April next? ;)

[@gal3814]

👍😂😂👍👍👍👍

[@thecleankitchen7898]

Ick! Don’t share a spoon with each other! Gag!

[@Melissa.Garrett]

The Clean Kitchen They literally shared a womb, and you’re worried about a spoon?

[@twattythirky]

You have said it a couple of times, but alcohol doesn't evaporate through cooking (not that it's an issue) it is a myth.

[@EasyEnglishG9314]

Are you brothers?

[@tallmantoo]

They are twin brothers.

[@lizgrist4850]

Far too much salt ! But will try it, looks good

[@donq2957]

Do you have to listen to two Australian limes just eat vegan pasta in this world?

[@dennisfuz42]

I love your recipes but use less oil. I am worried about you guys using non stick pan with obvious scratches and scrapes on it. Get yourself some better, less toxic cookware.
