Vegan Waffles, Mac N Cheese, & Milk Recipes: 3 Healthy Plant-based Upgrades

[@AskBobnFran]

Great video! We are in our 80's and feel better than ever! Eating healthy plant-based food is the key to a happy, healthful, and long life. Doing some research for our tiny new healthy-aging advice channel for people of all ages. Thank you.

[@EatMoveRest]

Congrats! That’s so awesome to hear!!💚👏

Ur video quality is waaay good. Underrated channel

[@tracygaither2297]

Totally agree! One of the best!!

[@joannapetke3881]

Yummy! Will try it out for sure. I highly recommend making some nutella with plums and cocoa for the wafels :P

[@meriem8738]

@@joannapetke3881 but nutella is not vegan :(

[@joannapetke3881]

@@meriem8738 we call it nutella because it seems similar but to make it use only plums, some sort of sugar and cocoa. That's it. Then it's vegan :) it's even nuts free... Delicious!

I'm dying because MAX IS SO CUTE!!! I had to show my husband this video because everything about Max is like my baby boy Oliver!! Including his amusement for belly button! Also, we have the same waffle maker and my husband was saying exactly the same thing this morning you said in the video, that we need to upgrade our waffle maker. Anyway, you guys have been tremendously helpful and inspirational. I found you guys a few months ago when baby Oliver and I hit the wall when he rejected solid foods and your videos helped us move one and now he LOVES eating foods more than anything. I always say the Dr. Greger and Max family are the most inspirational people in the plant-based world :) Thank you, Erin, Dusty and Max!!!!

[@EatMoveRest]

Wow so glad to hear Jeong! I was just telling Dusty I love the name Oliver! Connect with us on Instagram!

[@NesKimStyle]

Thanks for the inspiration. I just made the waffles with 1 cup millet flakes, grated zucchini, onion and broccoli with 1tsp of baking powder and 1/2 cup almond milk, 1/4 tsp cumin powder, green chilli, salt and pepper. OMG!!!

[@sahracaroline1735]

I also have some delish and healthy vegan meal inspo on my channel 💓💓💓

[@paolaestrada1387]

I made the waffles for breakfast this morning. They are amazing. 😋 Thanks for sharing.

[@jessicamorant7172]

Tried the waffle recipe for my 2 toddlers today it was a hit!!! I realized I was out of vanilla so I subbed that for cinnamon and dash of nutmeg & allspice. Also added a bit of hemp seeds since I was down to the last of that. Excited to try the mac recipe for them. Thanks for what yall do and all the plant based food inspiration!!!

[@kathrynsullivan4862]

Just had your cheese sauce and shells tonight...my picky vegan toddler ate two bowlfuls! 🙌🏼 She never eats that much in one sitting! Thank you! We are trying your waffles in the morning!

[@EatMoveRest]

Lol yes!!! That’s what we like to hear!👏👏👏

[@kathrynsullivan4862]

Waffles were a success! Even my picky non vegan husband loved them! 🙌🏼 Thank you for always sharing such solid recipes ❤️

[@rachelweatherford2777]

I bought a waffle maker just to make this recipe. It was delivered today so I had breakfast for dinner and may or may not have eaten the whole batch by myself. Sooo good!

You asked about a waffle maker that makes 4 waffles. I use an Oster brand that has a white ceramic coating that doesn’t contain any toxic chemicals, and it’s also non-stick.

Have a great weekend, guys!! -Abby

Ahhh love you Abby!

Another delicious vid of yours saved to my playlist. Why have been buying Oat Milk all this time when it’s so easy to make? This has been a game changer. All three recipes look delish & I cant wait to try them.

[@EatMoveRest]

Not sure why we never made it homemade. We always used to make almond, and now we are trying to move more towards zero-waste and minimizing single use plastics so we decided to give it a go!!

[@Aseabasplace]

For a good waffle press- look int the cuisinart griddler! it has a grill form and flat pannini press griddle and the waffle grill comes separate however ...... the best part .... the grill parts are dishwasher safe! no more cleaning all those slats and holes! you can make 4 waffles at once Erin!

Maybe someone already suggested this: but instead of a waffle press I have reusable forms that I can use in the oven. So I can bake 8 waffles At a time. It’s come in super handy during winter holidays or when the girls have friends Over. Mine are from Tupperware and I am really happy with them

[@elizabethtrieu1446]

Thanks for posting this. Im in the process of trying to figure out what to fix my toddlers who have picky tendencies as well. So this is great! Thank you both so much! Max is super cute and I totally can relate to the oat incident and then it being eaten off the floor with my oldest. So gross! Haha! But they will grow out of it. Your content inspires me to live healthier and turn to a vegan lifestyle again. I’ve been contemplating it as I’ve turned to a whole foods diet. And now I feel I should transition to a whole food vegan lifestyle. God Bless! And I am pro both. I can’t choose just waffles or Mac and cheese. Both were comfort foods of my youth.

[@EatMoveRest]

Try them both, you won't be disappointed! We are so glad we made the change in our diet, you won't regret it and neither will our kids!

Someone mentioned my regular oats may have been sprayed with roundup. Do you all have a suggestion. I like to add plant milk to my oatmeal and smoothies. How long will the homemade last in fridge?

[@EatMoveRest]

Definitely buy organic!

[@Q8IBOYS]

I’ve always wanted to ask you this question and I hope you have the time to reply. Why do you take protein powder? Should all vegans take protein powder? Does protein powder cause weight gain if I don’t exercise?

[@EatMoveRest]

We take protein powder because we are athletes. It will likely not make you gain weight but you should definitely be exercising!

Great video. As a member of your website, I can't find these waffles in recipe box. It would be great if you could include it!:) Also, as a full-time working mom of a toddler and another on its way, I'm generally looking for toddler friendly recipes. It would be so helpful if the recipes are marked as "toddlers friendly" or something and some 10-15min ones or 30min dinners would help search through the recipe cards quickly.

I love your video, however, how do you cook the waffles without any spray oil? Mine always stick to the waffle iron.

[@EatMoveRest]

We were using a small waffle maker that worked great until we realized it was non-stick which isn't the safest, so we are getting a ceramic coated one. Either way, these waffles don't really stick! Give it a try!

[@kimberleylennox4234]

Do you follow a mostly gluten-free diet? I am vegan, eating whole food plant-based, however still experiencing some digestive issues, and wondering if it may be the gluten? Any advice welcome! P.S. all these meals look incredible!

Hey Kimberley! Yes, we are mostly gluten-free. If you buy organic sprouted whole grains that will help. Soaking/sprouting beans can help! And there are lots more tips on my bloating and digestion video too! :)

[@RanndiMarie01]

I just had to comment again and say I tried your waffles, as pancakes though since I don’t have a waffle maker, and they were delicious! I’m trying to transition into being a vegan. My boyfriend isn’t, but he eats whatever I cook him, so I tried these pancakes out and he said and I quote, “Why would anyone eat any other kind of pancakes again after trying these ones!” So I guess you could say he’s a fan. 😂

[@RanndiMarie01]

I don’t own a waffle maker, but I’ve always heard waffle makers are hard to clean because stuff sticks to them. (That’s kind of why I’ve never bought one). I noticed you don’t have that problem though. Do you use oil for the waffle maker, or just have good luck? 😂

[@EatMoveRest]

I got one that is ceramic coated and it doesn’t stick! Check our Amazon store!

[@ejlauder]

Do you have a water filtration system that you’d recommend?

[@EatMoveRest]

We actually just got a countertop RO system that we may be sharing more about after using for a bit longer! :)

[@juliafieger949]

If I'm not mistaken (and I certainly could be) saying there is no MSG in nutritional yeast is a misnomer and it is a naturally occuring component. Maybe they didn't "add" any MSG but there will still be some present just by it's natural nature. However, with that said, there has been tons of research saying it is safe (unless, of course, you have a sensitivity to it).
