What I Ate in a WEEK as a VEGAN (realistic) - eating through my freezer

[@sadiedavenport]

I LOVE how conscientious you are about not wasting food. Thanks for being awesome.

[@jnjr]

I keep a white board on my fridge that lists all the leftovers and perishables that I need to prioritize eating

[@audreydaoust2569]

Wow great idea 👌

[@NatalieWisler]

It’s crazy how we can store things in the freezer and they stay good for so long! This is inspiring me to eat through my freezer now! It’s great not to waste it! 🤗

[@JodieMarieASMR]

I love the random, it is good to see the more realistic way of cooking and preparing food. That is why I watch your channel alot. Even though they are easy recipes they are super tasty

[@marzettik]

Love seeing you being a regular human. Because real people eat leftovers. Lol.

[@megaira86]

wow, you were so lucky to see this white bear. they are quite rare.

[@OperationxRuthless]

I love how you combined things to make them new and fresh, looks so good. Also, I love your voice, you have a unique tone.

[@cloverisamess]

Hi Rose, I can read Vietnamese and the banana rice roll package that you showed, you're supposed to grill it or put it in the oven to get the best taste, not microwave 😂 Maybe that's why you didn't enjoy it so much but I swear if you ever taste it freshly made off the grill, you will be HOOKED

[@sadiedavenport]

I thought it sounded pretty rad

[@pwzd572]

Basically, this dish is banana wrapped by sticky rice, so the sticky rice part should be grilled until the outside layer is brown and crunchy, which means it's been cooked. I highly recommend eating the banana rice roll with coconut milk, Idk why but the coconut milk gives a big kick for the banana one : D

[@sadiedavenport]

@@pwzd572 yum!! Thank you for the recommendation. It sounds fabulous ☺️

[@cloverisamess]

@@pwzd572 I second this

[@jennifercaulfield4521]

This is how I cook too, I follow a recipe 2-3 times a week and then think of all the random mix-togethers for various parts of leftovers, since my fiance never eats leftovers as-is. Some of my best meals are repurposed leftovers!

[@Undeadharpie]

I made tofu katsu just a few days ago! So good

[@CheapLazyVegan]

seriously, it's the best thing

[@Ruth-AnneKlassen]

Finally, somebody said it! Veg noodles (zucchini, spaghetti squash...) are not the same. Gotta have carbs lol. You've been in my YT recommends for years, and this is the first of your videos I've watched. Excited that you live in my city, so I'll have to check out your cafe

[@its_raining2472]

Thank you so much for always showing such a healthy and realistic way of vegan eating! These are always my fave videos of yours. ❤️

[@nightcoregiyuu1]

I love noodles and the fact they are healthy,it'so good

[@kassidybrown4054]

Melon season has been killer. Lemondrop melons from Sprouts have been my guilty pleasure!!

[@lydiajo7010]

I love the random meals, Rose! I use it as inspiration to be creative with my leftovers. Keep them coming!

[@sarahm7296]

You should make a video on how to remake leftovers. Like how you did with the shakshuka into spaghetti. But do that with more recipes. 👍

[@PattonScr]

I make kimchi using your recipe and it's awesome so I can't wait for the radish kimchi recipe 💜

[@Wyldyflower]

Rose i think that bear is a Kermode bear. A spirit bear! Very lucky to see!

[@jmoi]

I wish my freezer was as big as yours! Btw that bear you saw is really rare! I remember reading articles about how people were specifically looking to sight a white bear around the Banff area. I wonder if that’s the same bear.

[@Reznic007]

These meals remind me of how I eat. I have two littles (kids) and I’m constantly eating their leftovers throughout the day but adding other random leftovers from the fridge to it too 😂😂 great video as usual! 🖤

[@shianegaylie1274]

It's a spirit bear! Which is actually just an albino black bear. It's the official animal of BC and I'm so jealous that you got to see one!! I see tons of black bears but no spirit bears

[@Emiluna1994]

Love this! I’ve been trying to eat up the random stuff in my freezer and pantry too before it goes bad!

[@kellihillebrand8341]

I didn’t know you had a cafe🌱👍🥰 No food waste on this end either! It’s great to have food ready to eat in the freezer. I make larger batches of meals and freeze....so easy😋

[@aznialreyatullha1044]

Want to try making the first dish, let's see.

[@CastledarkDweller27]

youre right mate, wraps are awesome. they are the BEST way to use up leftovers! Dozen even matta WHAT you put in them, they always taste great. Stop apologising Rose for the randomness of these meals, and the mish-mash of different delights & leftovers! i actually find it way more interesting than normal recipe vids! ~ but thats probably cos u are AMAZING how u put stuff together and it comes out looking like a balanced and pre-planned meal! Only one thing left for u to do girl....get around here and clean out MY fridge & freezer leftovers hey!? : )

[@kirs420]

I struggle a lot with an instant ramen addiction and finding quality vegan instant ramen. What brands would you recommend?

[@alianathefoxfairy]

I can't wait to visit Calgary and your cafe someday

[@MrNioMoon]

this was satisfying to watch ❤️

[@VeganLiving247]

I like that you just use a veggie peeler to make zoodles instead of a spiralizer. I find spiralizers take up a lot of space. Sure the zoodles don’t look as perfect but it doesn’t really matter! :)

[@Jamielynn7336]

I love this! I describe my cooking style as like I'm trying to compete in Chopped with whatever I have around most of the time haha

[@maryasmr2300]

Wow realistic video💗 look so yummy😄😄😄

[@CheapLazyVegan]

thank you !

[@SuperLovelessgirl]

Random yet realistically delicious! I wish I knew how to revamp my leftovers cause eating the same old stuff gets old fast. Also I would love it if you gave the recipe for that poke bowl, it looked amazing 🤩

[@margarett_b]

20:30 I adore chestnuts too! My gosh, they are so delicious, creamy....just amazing!

[@grego5565]

Love the idea of the protein milk for cereal! Can you do a recipe video making your shakshuka?

[@NatalieWisler]

Ugh I need to clear out my freezer too!! I feel like I’ve been so picky lately so it’s hard 😭

[@davidthescottishvegan]

I would help you out if I were your next door neighbour😆 Love Natalie🥰

[@NatalieWisler]

@@davidthescottishvegan haha that’d be nice!

[@margarett_b]

2:50 Every country has some signature pastries right? Would you say Hotteok is the most common Korean one? Or are there any others you would say are the most popular/must tries?

[@jamiecee4960]

All these looked so yummy. That Bear was very cute. Good thing you was in the car. We all need to start doing this. Using up what we have. I need to learn to do that. I love folding tortilla's like that now. I don't go back to the other way of wrapping. lol.

[@hyediehashimoto735]

YES!!!! I want to learn how to make kakkdugi!! Looking forward to that video!

[@VeganLiving247]

These look so yummy. I need to go through my freezer too. Last time I fully looked through it there was definitely a lot of freezer burnt food 😬😬 We could all benefit fr regularly going through our freezer and pantries I think!

[@OrganicSilverMoonDesignsLLG]

Great Stream love the food definitely need to get your mom's Kimchi recipe, Sweet puppy, Thank you for sharing this.

[@CheapLazyVegan]

thank you!

[@pikachu-cs8gh]

omg i wanna go to your cafe but i live in Edmonton :(

[@VeganLiving247]

I live in Edmonton too! Definitely do some road trips there and try out the vegan restaurants! I also recommend Tamarind 👌

[@kassandrawarner9952]

Cute shirt! You look amazing Rose :) thanks for the ideas! Hello, we all have random left overs and I’m usually not a fan of left over but girl you gave me hope.

[@taunyamiller2134]

Great video! I'm sure most of us need help learning how to reinvent leftovers. I know I do!

[@snowman2530]

They all look amazzziinnnggg and quite easy to make ... I just ate but you made me hungry XD

[@VeganLiving247]

Ooooo I might need to try the protein powder with milk added to cereal!

[@taramay783]

Can we get the recipe of the cashew cream cheese!?

[@anna-lenag.6702]

I wanted to ask do you also have a recipe for a cucumber kimchi?

[@johncrwarner]

Weirdly I have been raiding my freezer mostly for veggie mixes to stir-fry and having it with rice or air-fried potatoes My freezer is so full - when we were in lockdown I bought more and we haven't had visitors for over 15 months so things I often made got frozen too. I have enough frozen tofu and tempeh to feed a small army LOL

[@anonimouuz]

Thanks! Loads of inspo for some new foodies 😋

[@juliejohnson3807]

Great video, Rose! I really enjoyed it!🤩

[@steveheffner]

Thankyou for this video, great ideas and inspiration for using leftovers.

[@aliciashanks5239]

I love this! I'm moving in less than a month and doing the same thing with our freezer 😅

[@ShelbyKeahi]

I would looove a cucumber kimchi recipe! 😍

[@mandili7264]

That creamy kimchi udon looks amazing

[@melrox8809]

I need to eat though my freezer too. Things get push to the back lol. No fruit for breakfast lol. 😄

[@rasputozen]

I think that was a blonde black bear. They are pretty rare. You can tell it's not a grizzly because of the more slender head with less prominent brow, prominent ears, and less distinguished shoulder hump.

[@natasaperun3242]

I don't have any problems with freezer because it's the end of the month! 🤣 I've already prepared a list for July and got some new ideas from you, Rose! 🌹 Thank you for sharing your ideas with us! Kisses 💚🌱

[@susanallen1979]

I love that pan where did you get it ☺️

[@Haleyrosey]

how did i not know you had a cafe !!

[@kyndalburton8203]

I love this though, since I'm the only vegan in my house, I often make a ton of beans or soup or whatever and have to freeze some and before I know it, I have a mountain of food that needs eating.

[@Winterliebende]

What does Kimchi taste like? Is it like sweet and salty?

[@maridaaucamp5133]

It's spicy and kind of sour

[@sabinabrown4650]

I'm obsessed with your channel haha

[@CastledarkDweller27]

i was thinking the mysterious concoction in your freezer was chocolate chick peas and ooh that would be nice on hot oatmeal! then hahaaa you say its actually black bean sauce full of lentils. eek yep that'd be me, finding out the hard way that it aint chocolate i just plonked on my porridge.

[@watchdominiondocumentary266]

Everything looks so delicious!

Wow, your moms kimchi is such a deep red color! My kimchi looks anemic in comparison, haha.

[@Nuriyya91]

Mine too 😭😂 i can handle spicy food, but I think I add half of the amount of Gochugaru as Rose/her Mama.

[@UsagiMori]

OMG u saw a spirit bear! They are super rare!

Loved it. Most of my weeks look like that! Just trying to eat everything in the fridge 🤣❤️

Great video and recipes Rose. It's mainly frozen vegetables in my freezer. Have a good week and love🥰💕 you. The dog is so cute. The bear is so cute and beautiful.

[@v_zach]

Such a cute bear! I think he or she is a black bear rather than a grizzly. There are guides to the differences on the internet so you can decide for yourself.

[@kiajade]

Why do her random leftovers come together so perfectly?! Vegan shakshuka pasta? These a revolutionary creations lol😂

2:04 Yes, lemon juice (or more precisely vitamin C ) helps with iron absorption BUT only if you don't destroy it with heat :D So here it was definitely a flavour enhancer :D Some red peppers (packed with vit. C and super crunchy) would be an awesome addition to really boost the iron absorption!

[@cristinapopa21]

Does any of you also experience severe bloating when eating vegan foods? I like to eat vegan, but my stomach does not agree with almost anything...lentils, chickpeas, beans, mushrooms, broccoli...everything makes me super bloated :)) Does anyone have any tips for this issue?

[@HigeYatsu]

It's very common when first starting to transition to a plant based diet to experience a good amount of bloating, and it doesn't mean your body can't tolerate them in the long run. Essentially your gut biome is optimized for your current diet, and when you introduce these new foods, especially in larger quantities, your gut flora/fauna populations are inefficient at aiding with the digestion of them and produce a lot of gas as they try. If you want to avoid this and are in a transition phase anyways, I'd try to identify which foods are the biggest offenders, and gradually introduce them in larger and larger quantities over time. Dial in the amount of these foods you can eat before you start feeling uncomfortable, and eat that amount for a few days. After a few days, introduce a little more, and then a little more, and repeat until you feel comfortable eating the amount you want to eat. As you do this, the populations of bacteria in your GI tract will change from the ones that were efficient at dealing with your old diet, and shift to populations of bacteria more suited to your spiffy new plant based diet. After this you should be good to go! It doesn't take as long as it sounds, but it could take several weeks realistically.

[@shoegal]

Probably cos of the increase in fiber. You'll get used to it

[@Nuriyya91]

The first comment said it all, but it also helps when you use canned chickpeas, lentils or beans to wash them propperly under water. It also reduces the bloating.

[@serena7849]

Bloating usually occurs for two reasons when switching to veg, a) increase in fiber and b) increase in raw produce. Try cooking the majority of your vegetables until your stomach and GI tract is more used to them. Then you should eventually aim to have 50% of your daily veggies raw because the more raw veggies you have the better the bioavailability :) Also when you increase your fiber you need to also increase your water intake so make sure you're doing this by drinking enough water and eating water rich foods!

[@miunya]

These items are cruciferous veg which causes gas. Best to eat in moderation or add some good gut bacteria food like kimchi etc

[@Lunalis_610]
