What's your tips for continuing to eat well while traveling?
I do on-line searches for eating options in advance of my trip. Comb some Yelp / Google reviews to see what's good and what's not. Pack a few dry or canned items (mainly protein sources). Always travel with nuts or seeds, peanut butter, a can or two of beans (make sure it's a pull top can) and a few fruit items.
I don’t. I recently went on a New Orleans trip and ate so much vegan soul food 😭 maybe when I go to Mexico City I’ll research in advance
Andrew on UA-cam, why you don't say what amount you are using in each dish. . I want to make your dishes but you don't give the amounts of ingredients your are using. Please show amounts of ingredients. Thanks
@@marygoodwyn1871 it’s so you have to go look at the recipe and support the blog. All food creators do that
Generally, I find it best to eat out less and shop more. With a little planning, I try to stay at hotels (or whatever places I am staying at near a decent grocery and shop for meals instead of eating out. Much of my travel was for work, and thus often a lunch or somethings was part of the itinerary, but I would usually have breakfast at the lodging place and sometimes dinner. Depending on where I was at, I might get takeout one day and split it over a couple meals in addition to things I bought at a grocery. One complication is that many employers make it hard to get reimbursed with this approach. All good if they follow federal per diem, but much harder if they demand receipts. Try vouchering half an Indian takeaway twice (half x 2 =1), part of a Trader Joe's receipt, and maybe a couple others. Painful.
I recently had to drive down to Florida from PA so a 3 day drive and I wondered what I would eat along the way, and I ended up just fasting and drinking as much water as I could. I've never been much of a faster because I love food oh so much but it felt wonderful. I think I needed it.
That is awesome!
Thank you. I after 3 failed attempts and having sworn off evil Tofu forever, learned how to make Tofu on Christmas morning… the key to tofu is having patience. I have made it first fried in just a little olive oil, second time the air fryer next time I’m trying the oven. 😊
love the persistence!
@@thenarddogcooks 😊
I love the fact you finally get to do some sponsored content! It just makes me happy to see the time and effort you put into these videos paying off :) Plus, you actually made this video into quite an interesting conversation which is great - added value for us!
I feel like while traveling, I tend to let go of certain eating principles too (for example, the amount of plastic waste I end up producing) so It's great to have such conversions from time to time!
This is such a simple and obvious solution I’m almost embarrassed to share it with others! My family challenge is balancing the needs of vegetarians, an occasional meat eater, and two people who don’t eat sugar and flower. On the road…? Nightmare. We prefer temporary rentals over hotels to save money on food and because it’s really the only way to ensure everyone can eat in a way that keeps them feeling good and satisfied. I am SO going to look into this. Thank you!
Love this! thanks for sharing, Ricardo!
This looked so good! Hadn't heard of Purple Carrot until now.
🙌🏾
I’ve been with purple carrot since the beginning and I’ve discovered new ingredients and recipes! I actually made this recipe but didn’t add the sweetness to it (don’t like sweet and savory). It came out so delicious, tangy and lemony. It’s a favorite with me! And cooking tofu with cornstarch is next level!!!!
Also, since I live by myself, I use the leftovers for a delicious lunch quick lunch the next day. It’s been perfect for me and my lifestyle. ❤
We never travel. If we had to I'd probably go with dried fruits and bars along that line..🙄
some of my favs in a long car ride!
Love your vids. They ALWAYS make me want to cook. I'm anxious to try this meal . . if I can find the ingredients. I've also never heard of that Chinese Brocolli. . . but it sure looks and sounds delicious.
Just found your channel and love it. Despite having never smoked and always exercised a few years ago at age 45 I was diagnosed with bladder cancer and had to have my bladder, lymph nodes and prostate removed in a 12hr long operation. After my diagnosis I researched a lot about nutrition and realised I was eating a lot of crap ad not enihgh food that have health benefits inc prevention of cancer. Although I still eat some meat and fish I went significantly more plant based and got I to cooking. I always worry about not getting enough protein to maintain my 90kg bodyweight but your recipes are ace. Simple, tasty, nutritious, planet friendly and great style of presentation in the videos. As we say in England - I salute you Sir!
Love the music in your videos! Just watched a documentary on how music is an integral part of film. The visuals and sounds in your videos definitely have an awesome vibe!
Thank you for sharing another helpful video, and another delicious meal Andrew
Glad you enjoyed it 🤗
I live full time in my van and travel throughout the country, I’m a vegetarian and I cook all my meals in my van. I also make veggie sandwiches when I’m on the go. Do I eat out? Of course I do. I love your videos they inspire me and are so helpful for great recipes.
Looks so delicious! Thanks for the signature recipe 👍
My pleasure 😊
What I see a nard dog video notice, I click immediately!
🙌🏾❤️🤗
That meal looked divine :D
This looks so good! Love the vid! But i can’t find the recipe anywhere?
Since I’m the only vegetarian in my household, this could be a good option even while home. Thanks as always for the inspiration.
You are so welcome!
I laughed when I saw those tired greens squished at the bottom of that box. Gailan... Alright now! I see you Purple Carrot. Fancy! Restaurants blow my mind but not really all at the same time. It's as if they don't understand how easy it is to make the simplest dishes on their menus Vegan / Plant-Based. I have degrees in Hospitality and Food Service. It's pretty easy to keep some canned beans and a block of tofu in the kitchen. Why aren't there menu options to add / substitute these items like you would chicken or shrimp? 🤯 How many people was that Purple Carrot box supposed to feed? While that dish with the little blue bird was ADORABLE... That serving size would not have cut it for me. Stay amazing and as always..... PEEEEEEEEAAAACCCCCCE!
Couldn't say it better myself! Also the bowl is like my moms fav lol. She loves birds.
I don't usually cook with tofu but it looked pretty good with your tofu press. I thought it was an insane amount of ginger until it clicked that you were adding it to tofu.
Thanks for the video. This service definitely isn't for anyone to use as a regular weekly service. I was checking the nutritional facts on several different menu items, and the sodium levels are 47% and up for daily allowances. I didn't check them all, only about 3 of them. Like you said, it could be a viable service to use when traveling though.
I totally agree! They do have a few low sodium options like this one:www.purplecarrot.com/recipe/potato-malai-kofta-with-sauteed-spinach-tomato-chutney-eaa69c48-9016-46b5-afe3-24b534419a6c?plan=chefs_choice or this one www.purplecarrot.com/recipe/sicilian-style-broccoli-with-tarragon-hazelnut-relish-lemon-caper-millet?plan=chefs_choice , I haven't checked them all out either but very SOLID point. Thanks for sharing, Ronald!
I would meal prep for sure 👍
always the best option!
Mars can you remake this meal from scratch for us? Looks delish
Great package !
What's an alternative to tofu... I can't get into eating it... I've tried to dry it out overnight , baking, frying, cutting up, mixing in with my veggies and I .. just can't.. do you have any solutions??..
But where are the leftovers how many portions how many servings are there leftovers
Kind of... i was eating stuff along the way lol... but 2 servings per this meal. they also have a 4 serving per meal option
🎉🎉🎉
I thought the gai lan, the Chinese broccoli looked like kale. Imagine my surprise when I looked it up on Google and found out it was also known as Chinese kale.
Really!? Thanks for sharing!
What a delicious recipe!:D´ The neoliberal bourgeois market has made healthy food expensive in order to be able to sell its crap that is more profitable at scale
Nice video. The only reason I haven’t ordered from Purple Carrot yet is I’m on a sodium restricted diet and they don’t offer an option.
Wouldnt only the tamari have much salt?
Hey! You can choose your meals and can also see all the ingredients prior to picking out what you want. There are a few meals i found that are very low in sodium (i didnt check the whole site though) so maybe check it out if that may be the only thing holding you back.
@@savegraysoncats Actually the vegetable bullion would too.
@@thenarddogcooks Thanks for the reply, I will revisit their website.
What is that box you put the tofu in?
It's a tofu press to squeeze the water out. you an use anything heavy to do it as well. I use cast iron pans. just have a pan underneath to catch all of the water.
And does it taste change if it's left over questions.
for this meal it was pretty good!
Hey Andrew, it looks like the Purple Carrot coupon code only takes $20 off 😕
same here. I sent them a message about it.
Their response: I can confirm your coupon ANDREW23 is in your account and will automatically apply to your first 4 boxes. This discount information will reflect a week prior to delivery on your Upcoming Deliveries page under Order details.
@@stefaniebass2664 Yeah they replied to me too saying the $80 is split across the first 4 boxes, $20 each. Not as good of a deal lol
😋😋😋😋😋👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🥰
Has someone already asked if that is chard or what?
Ok so my issue is that I would need to eat that entire serving size x4.
It's possible to slow down the video a little? Kinda difficult to read the ingredients.
🕊🤍🙏🌎🍽
🙌🏾🤗
So much single use packaging. So much plastic. So much waste. What else is Purple Carrot sponsoring, the Great Pacific Garbage Patch?
How is it going?~ breathtaking - wanna a promo?! goodbye!! :)
