I love how honest you are with cooking. I feel like a lot of RU-vidrs would only show “perfect” meals, but it’s refreshing to see you describe dressings that don’t immediately work, seaweed tasting “meh,” and textures sometimes being mushy haha. I love cooking but have imperfect meals everyday, and it’s affirming to see how you show plant-based nutrition in a realistic light! 😄
I read the first part of this as, "I don't watch this because of the food," and was like, wait what? The food is amazing, why would you not watch it because of that?! 😂
1:55 Sun and blooming flowers are just one of my absolute fave parts of spring. I don't know how about you, but for me, seeing nature wake up makes me thrive :D
Hey Derek, I recommend putting one of those small metal mixer balls in your mason jar, helps mix things up and keep everything mixed. I add one to my smoothies to keep them from separating too.
Awesome, I like this type of video. I often recommend you to my friends, who are newbie vegans, your content is funny, educational and you're just the type of guy that can 'relate' to everyone.
I love watching your heartfelt down to earth approach to WFPB life. You keep it simple and real. Love all your workout videos. You don’t use exotic equipment to make gains. Love the information on nutrition and all the videos about amazing foods. Most of all I love your sauces. I feel they are what keeps each dish new even when it is the sam ingredients list. You keep all your videos clean from bad language and things that are inappropriate in my eyes. I real feel like I am your friend and you respect me as a person even though we have never met. I share your videos often.
I love your intuitive cooking method. I've become that way since I went plant based. Rarely use recipes, just throw stuff together, season, taste, correct if needed. Almost always really yummy.
I really enjoy watching you and you’re workouts with cooking! They both help me keep working out everyday! And eating healthier. That’s all I want is to real lean! Like last night my wife and I went out for dinner. And i Ordered a black bean burger with Mexican rice! I’m still new with my new lifestyle of plant based foods. It’ll be 2 weeks this week
You are sooooo like me.😂😂Phone in the tree hanging from your feet in your backyard eating and drinking healthy stuff appreciating nature I think that’s why I like your channel so much right now. I feel like such a weirdo sometimes it’s kind of actually weird to see somebody who’s like me
The combo of flavours on that dinner meal is fantastic! I'm glad someone else does what I do, my partner always shakes his head when I put way too many flavours into one dish, but I just love them all! Thanks for the video.
Awesome video! I love the balance of food, exercise, and just enjoying getting outside! Your videos always give me a little boost to make healthy choices! Thanks so much for that!!
I don't know what's wrong with RU-vid today, but I kept getting more and more advertisements. I think I watched eight of them? Ridiculous. Oh well, it was worth it, cause I really enjoyed your video. All the food looked very tasty as always.
I don’t workout much (or at all really :p ) so I have to eat way way less than you but I LOVE your food videos! You’re smoothies and meals always inspire me to add more colours into my diet 😋🤗
Amazing as always. Thanks for the regular inspiration! After realizing that you have the same air fryer as we have, now I see exactly our type of vegetable noodle maker... Basically kitchen soulmates 😂. I will use the noodle-salat-idea asap, looks tasty!
Hi Derek. Given that you were cutting back on this day....I was wondering what food did you remove, that you would normally have added to your day of eating?
Because it's ridiculous to wear a mask when you are actively working out and breathing hard. Some people seem to do okay with it, I go too hard for it. It's also not a requirement from our public health authorities. It is required you wear them when moving around the gym and in between sets. Rather than put it down on some sketchy surface at the gym I just wear it around my sketchy beard.
For those of us with work day lunch hours, can you please give us some ideas for quick lunches? I have my Lebert Equalizer Bars on order. Thanks for the inspiration!
take your b12 empty stomach pre workout... if you take it with your meal it doesn't absorb well and it gives energy immediately... doesn't make sense before bed with circadian rhythm lol like takin melatonin when you wake up.
Derrick you should just buy garlic powder and onion powder and pour them all in the same container it saves space lol. Better yet create a simnett nutrition spice blend sell it on the channel lol
The variety of your diet is so crazy (in a good way. One of your meals consists of so many ingredients as my whole day of eating. But that's definetly an inspiration!
The Rock Heritage frying pan. It's usually expensive until it goes on sale. IF you live in Canada its on sale at Canadian tire right now from $120 to $40. That's when we buy it. It is non-stick.
Love youre content 😍😍 keep up the grate work you are a Huge inspiration , if you could make a grocery haul video where you show youre stapeles you buy?
I do for my recipe videos and put the recipes in the description. I have a recipe ebook as well which is in the description. I am also working on a second recipe ebook too right now, but it will incorporate many recipes from these videos. Sorry, it just takes too long to measure stuff out every time I cook. I guess you would know. lol. Ohh low blow, sorry. ;)
Love the "ooh girl" 😅 just watched this video before breakfast in UK definitely put me in the mood for a clean tasty breakfast wrap... Have a great day
ALWAYS love hanging out with you, Derek. Your meals are so inspiring - so truly WFPB. The plant docs should use you as a truly model WFPB no oil (mostly) vegan. You and Crystal rock.
Hey thanks man! Welcome. I was hoping to find some content on your channel, I absolutely love learning about home repair, trades, skills. I recently put a tarp over the shed of our rental and it stopped the leaking, so I'm basically a skilled roofer now. Haha.
@@Simnettnutrition Awesome! Maybe you could tell us in the Q&A which ones you buy organic and what to look for plus your take on pesticides! Thanks Derek!
Seriously dude, enjoyed the show. Love the food ideas. Also, I would absolutely love to see the before and after shots of the abs :) I know, I imagine it might be a bit uncomfortable for you to show it, but it would really help many people understand what can be done with the before and after and also progress shots! I constantly struggle with deciding to cut or bulk after about a year in to lifting, and it would help to see your journey as an example!
I absolutely love your videos. Favorite vegan channel ever! I was wondering if maybe you’d consider making a video on your journey with your vegan nutritionist career and how you got to where you are now/any tips on starting. Sending you and Crystal so much love! 🌸☁️☺️🌸☁️
Love your videos! I would love to see a meal prep video where you prep 4-5 lunches “to go” for the week. Lunches that keep well, transport well, and won’t get soggy.
Inspired and motivated mate. I too have gained some unwanted poundage and some great reminders. Organisation is the thing I need back. Even if the recipes are easy to follow, got to get my ass down to the shops and prepare it when there's free time. Cheers my dude.
Watching your videos is fun, but you use so much peppers, and I can't have those. What tips might you have for someone who is allergic to EVERY form of Pepper ... Hot Pepper, Sweet Pepper and All pepper spices (paprika, black pepper etc.) ... how would I go about making food taste good without the awesome pepper flavors???
THAT'S THE LOST TOFU BRAND! Seriously. If anyone in the US knows where to find the tofu he uses in the chickpea stir-fry, PLEASE say so. I miss it so bad. I used to find it at WinCo in the PNW but can't find it anywhere in Colorado. *super sad face*
I subscribed to you a few years ago when I tried to go vegan but I haven't watched much since... I've tried to change my eating habits multiple times but I've committed to this Monday April 19th 2021. I'm 55 years old and 335 pounds and I need both my knees and hips replaced. Don't get me wrong I am not a complainer, as a matter of fact I have a Warrior Spirit… My will to fight is my biggest attribute! 😎👊😊 I can't walk very well so it's hard for me to run or do something with callisthenics but I found a type of exercise that can get my heart rate up and I don't have to move much which is DPP Yoga... I committed to an instant pot and it came in the mail a few days ago and I started looking at the set up and it was a little overwhelming. So then I went on RU-vid to look up vegan recipes for instant pots and you were one of the videos. I then thought, oh I know this guy! Lol You inspire me brother! Your language is in my DNA and I appreciate your positive attitude and even when you make mistakes you have a funny way of recovery… that was said in a good way.😁 I would like to lose 100 pounds in 15 months and I believe I can do it! Actually I think I can do it sooner so we will see... I will do this with exercise and a whole food plant based lifestyle. I am going to watch your past and future videos for ideas and inspiration. Man, I don't even know if you'll get this message… 🤔 I don't write on these videos, but I thought maybe there's a way that you and I could correspond via email. I assume you have some type of email attached to this don't you? Sorry my kids give me crap all the time because I'm a step behind on these types of things. The other day my son told me that if I want to leave a message for someone on RU-vid and you are subscribed to them you'll get a notification when they write you back. I then asked him, how would they know my email address? He said dad they don't have your email address it's in your subscription notifications… I said what the heck is that?! He then said, How did you get this far? Lol He takes after his mother! 😊😁 I just realized I left you a novel, sorry about that, I promise not to overdo it next time… Thanks for inspiring me!
Hello dear Derek, I follow you since years, big fan of your authenticity, your simplicity, always a smile, you inspired me so much..and when you see on your bike road this beautiful cat looks like your cheer beloved Coco, I think you was born under a nice lucky star, as a god or providence message you are on the right way..would like so much to talk with you and meet you.. Friendly from France. Your loyal follower Max 😉
I love to watch your cooking demos. But I really love how you respond to cats. Like, you’ve been waiting all your life to see one in the wild and here it is! Welcome to the cat worshipper club.
Is smoked tofu hard to find? Also, does it come frozen or is just cold and pre-pressed? Everything looked amazing, but that part of the video blew my mind - didn’t know such a thing existed 🤤
You have a very beautiful gentle and calm inner energy although your “outer” expression is all spready and not so quite hahah (at least what it’s seen on camera of course) and yeah, just wanted to say that that is gorgeous. Specially in a man. 💛😊 Also, warm water is best for our gut! It loves warmth :)
