I like the way you introduce yourselves and just get on with it, without a long, tedious preamble that includes explaining how ‘super excited’ you are to be doing what you’re doing. As a European, i find it mystifying how many Americans seem to exist in a state of permanent hyper excitement. 😂
I personally enjoy the chit chat, we get to see the real them. I like seeing real. It’s like sitting with them in their kitchen, homey n comfy. But that’s just me. Peace, love and yummy food👍❤️
@@KrocksInTheKitchen or make then sell an ebook linked from your site, as other vegan RU-vidrs do with much success (Ellen Fisher, High Carb Hannah...).
New sub here. Found your videos on RU-vid today. I dug through your videos today and I am AMAZED by your progress. Seriously, congrats you obviously deserve it. Thank you for documenting this all for the world and then sharing it. You guys don't even look the people in the first few videos, seriously that is freaking CRAZY. Keep it up... and again thanks for sharing, looking forward to future videos. Bell rung!!
I love a roasted veggie bowl for work lunches!!!! It's my favourite! Going to add your tofu to my mix AND start freezing my brown rice in hockey pucks! Brilliant!!!
It's a great idea to freeze the cooked rice in portion-sizes! I'm the only one in my family who eats brown rice and I often don't bother to cook a tiny portion for me, so I'll surely copy this idea! Thank you!
So excited to try this. I have only been doing nutritarian for a few months and mostly been eating soups & chili. But I can foresee a day when I will need a break from soup.
I love the hockey puck idea! When I cook a pot of grains I tend to go thru the whole thing in a day, making it the main portion of my meal. I never thought about freezing them. This would help me so much!
I’m starting to really see how OCD Jess gets about precision and having things just right. That must be fun decorating the Christmas tree. I wonder if she lets Brian help. Or just “fixes” it as soon as he leaves the room. Lol
Would you guys be willing to show a kitchen tour? I would love to see how you organize the inside of your cabinets and fridge. My OCD and spreadsheet-making side would LOVE that.
Have you tried roasting unpeeled garlic cloves with your veggies? Once roasted, cut the end off the clove and squeeze out the garlic like toothpaste. It turns mild and sweet when roasted like this in the oven. Might make a nice addition.
That looks delicious! I’m sooo trying the tahini sauce on roasted veggies it looks so good! I also love how you froze your brown rice...I’m stealing that for sure! Brilliant!😁
This looks so good!! After being vegan for about 3 months I really want to take the next step and cut out oil and processed vegan "junk" which i eat about 4 times a week. Any tips for that specifically? Cutting oil? It is harder than I thought.
Oil can be tricky because basically everything store bought will have some in it. The key for us has been making everything at home and using things like tahini that have natural oil in it but are still the WHOLE ground sesame seeds and not just the extracted oil.
I make "South in Your mouth" soup. Black eyed peas, Collard greens, Okra, Mixed veg, crushed tomatoes, lima beans, extra green beans and sweetcorn And whatever I happen to be hanging in the frig. Also onion, garlic and whatever spices I want.
1) fabulous recipe ideas - will definitely try the veggies and serve with brown rice (Naturreis) - like the idea of the "hockey puck" rice too. 2) Will have to check Aldi here in Germany to see if they have the no salt seasonings you have in the USA.
And having been to Aldi this morning, they don't have the seasonings referred to but I bought some white pepper and frozen dill (for another recipe) as well as a lot of organic veg and some white beans which were in the reduced section.
Thanks for these recipes. I am a little bit in doubt about the rice though. I have learned that rice, potatoes and in general starchie things should not be frozen because they become soggy. It happened to me once with boiled potatoes that I have frozen...absolutely something inedible.
Looks so tasty and I agree about the green beans. I won’t eat canned but fresh is delicious...usually my favorite part of my veggie bakes. Thanks for sharing!
I love how y'all make sure your food has flavor. I've never been one to put just salt, pepper, and garlic in a dish and maybe an herb and call it seasoned. Definitely looking forward to trying this one. I've just been having a hard time getting roasted veggies to come out right since I quit using oil. Maybe the tahini will help.
MsDorkness I have had the same issue. The veggies just aren’t the same. I have been spraying a tiny bit of my olive oil pan spray from my misto thing. It works pretty well but it’s not totally oil free.
@@justjenny1325 Wish I had that luxury. I started this at the begining of Aug on my birthday with a goal to loose 80 lbs by my next birthday. I am so far down 20 lbs (yay!) I think I might have to just watch my roasted veggies for a bit. Occasional may be fine. Probably better than the Beyond sausage I had the other day. (Oops 🤭, don't tell anyone hehe)
MsDorkness congrats on your losses so far!!! You are on fire!!! I’m so wishy washy with my diet, I need to just do it. Lol. You have inspired me and the Krocks always do.
Your Super Power Veggie Bowls look delicious! Thanks. I'm allergic to sesame seeds so tahini is out for me. I like to use a fresh Thai peanut butter sauce or my homemade soy milk yogurt (or silken tofu) with Braggs liquid aminos, Braggs 24 herb blend, vinegar and nutritional yeast. These are great as marinades or salad dressings.
I use the recipe for “Crispy” Baked Italian Tofu from this channel as a basis for different kinds of tofu. I sometimes marinate it in a mixture of minced hot red pepper, garlic, ginger, and low sodium soy sauce and a little low sodium soy sauce. I bake it the way Brian and Jessica bake the Italian tofu. I am experimenting with a marinade containing chipotle but I haven't perfected it yet. I serve it over brown rice with lots of vegetables.
Rice in the muffin cups is a magnificent idea! Thanks. Can’t wait to try the recipe, especially the marinated tofu. This is so much more economical than the pre-made frozen entrees. Green beans are really easy to grow in a home garden. Freshly picked green beans and sugar snap peas are amazing, Brian.
I love this. I made something like it but didn’t season it and then I can decide when I eat it how I want it. I portioned it out and froze it. I have used several different seasonings and it’s so yummy! I also portion my beans in a muffin tin. I love it because it’s about a half cut of rice or beans. ❤️
What?!?!?... just a few seconds in and you said, "we froze our tofu... it gives it that nice spongy texture" - 🤯 🤯 🤯 Mind is literally blown. I did not know you could freeze and then thaw tofu and have it be edible! Amazing.
I love all your recipes, I’d be interested to know how your new lifestyle grocery shopping bills compare to your old habits shopping? The results are incredible!
I really miss living in a town with an Aldi’s. North Dakota doesn’t have Aldi’s, Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods. But I’ll see what I can find and try this but I will definitely try the baked veggies.
I was literally thinking about drizzling tahini on top of the finished bowl, when Brian said if you wanted to splurge add some tahini on top or sesame seeds, etc. Thanks for sharing this recipe :)
This looks fantastic! I've been on soft food (oral surgery) for two weeks and TOMORROW, Imma gonna make this! Thanks guys! Perfect meal to break a "mush diet". ;)
So many great tips! I already love Aldi; can't wait to check out their no salt seasonings. The marinade for the roasted veggies sounds so good - I'll be trying that this week. Your channel has been the best inspiration for me to go totally WFPB, low-SOS, without relying so much on convenience vegan options. Thank You for ALL you do. Cheers!
Great job! I have only recently had some tahini that I actually liked. Usually I think it is too oily and flavorless but they have some at Cava that are fab!
Thank you for all your consistent hard work on great interesting helpful content. Truly useful and inspirational. I've got everything roasting right now. I appreciate your energy about cooking and meal prep. It reminds me of how good the food is when you make the effort to cook. Keep up the great work.
Looks great, I would substitute mushrooms for the bell peppers, and I don't eat soy(so no tofu for me) but this looks fabulous! You two are so fun to watch, I look forward to your videos. :)
