I got some weight loss traction by swapping out peanut butter for PB2 powdered peanut butter and applesauce for maple syrup in my morning oatmeal. Your swaps and hacks cover so much more ground, I'll be impressing my doctor in no time!
I just bought PB2 natural with no sugar and no salt on Amazon. It's so yummy! And I can add stevia or erythritol if I want to make it sweet or a little Himalayan salt. If I want it a little salty. I like being able to control what I put in the peanut butter.😊
I’m not sure if anyone mentioned this but in the chickpea flour omelets if you swap regular salt with Himalayan Black Salt it will add that eggy flavor! I use it in many “egg” vegan dishes.
Nooch is life! Derek Sarno has a great video on seasoning nooch for different flavor profiles. Kala Namak/black salt makes tofu taste like eggs if you use it in a tofu scramble. Also, Miyoko Schinner the founder of Miyokos Creamery products has a book just on making vegan cheese if you haven’t seen it. She also has two other vegan books that are great.
I tried the white potato dressing and it was fantastic! I used it to make a pasta salad with cucumbers, green onions, and sunflower seeds. Definitely a keeper. Thanks so much!
This was refreshing and loved some of the surprise health tips. MY only "no" is storing food in plastic....the salad dressing. I am on the crusade to try to limit the use of plastic as much as we can. Thanks for sharing!
I love these swaps! The only extra swap I'd add is coconut aminos for light soy sauce (there's a taste difference, so you might not want to all in, but even half is significant). Coconut aminos have 1/4 the sodium of light soy sauce, so if that's part of your health makeover, it's a pretty painless and really helpful.
I always use fresh or frozen fruit if possible to get maximum nutrition. The heat in canning, bottling and pasteurization will denature enzymes in the fruit. Canned fruit often has added sugar which I try to avoid.
Hi Ali, great videos! Do you have any big family weekly meal prep videos / advice you can direct me to? I have 5 kids and having a super hard time keeping up with plant based for a big family but I see you do it so it’s encouraging!! I need like when and how to prep and how much etc. Also a lot of plant based meals are hit and miss (a lot of times it just doesn’t appeal, textures are mushy in instant pot etc). What’s tried and true, kid friendly, easy go tos for you and how do you prep in advance so it’s not time intensive?? Thanks and super sorry for the random rambling. I’m burnt out! 🤪

Stick with it! I promise it gets easier over time. And remember you will always have a kid that doesn’t want to eat a new recipe no matter what you cook! 😂😜
Thank you for the videos! Trying to transition to plant based cooking and your videos give EASY and tasty recipes. The video quality/ content production/ whatever you called the total product is also excellent and just light and fun!
Appreciate the recipes. I almost gave up on subscription as “no recipe no watch”. Big thank you I’m going to try omelette & dressing. Oh those crisps, yummy ❤
I had your oatmeal hack this morning with frozen raspberries from last years crop. So so good. I would never have thought to add frozen cauliflower but it was great. Tomorrow I’ll make it with wild blueberries.
Hi. Btw, ur prev vid w ur Dad - he was the sweetest. My favorite and rare type of people. So sorry for ur loss hun. I lost Dad recently, life is tough. Even tho i see again w Jesus ❤ 😢
Great tips that I look forward to trying. May I make one suggestion? Please consider removing the repetitive and distracting background music. It serves as a distraction from your commentary, and I'd rather hear the latter. Thanks for considering!
The best way to stay vegan is to educate yourself. Watch all the documentaries. You want to have a why. Put your why on a post it if you need to and place it somewhere you will see it every day.
Can't believe my eyes that you just put the sweet potato and potato just like that in the microwave. You really look good not necessarily to loose weight
Please!!!!!Ditch the music!! So distracting. Almost all RU-vidrs add music and all I can think is "Do these people not think their content is good enough for viewers to watch"? Music is SUPER distracting and impaired my capacity to focus on your content. (WHICH is great, by the way)
