are you a spice queen? 🤔 Or nah? (See 4:40) 🤭
I am more the Spice Court Jester … Cool today, Hot Toma….. uh, tomorrow 😂🎉❤
I wouldn't survive a Hot Ones interview with Sean Evans, but I love a bit of spice.
I like to kick it up a notch :)
hundo percent spice queen. wife is zero percent spice queen so i'm right there with the needing to adjust spice levels when cooking for the family
I'm definitely a spice queen😊
My two (almost three year-old) son loves your videos!! We always get excited to watch a new one together! As you were cutting the broccoli he said “where the garlic go?” He was just waiting for you to chop some garlic! He also loves when you find the “leetle whisk” thank you for making such lovely videos! This recipe looks delicious!! My son also said “ooh tofu! That look really good!”
So sweet ❤
😂 i love that!!! you're the best! also, i love him ❤️🫶🏾
What a heartwarming comment, thank you so much
Luv the jazz music🎉spice king
🤗 🙌🏾 🫶🏾
Looks yummy! Love the jazz in the background!
Thank you 😋
Made it tonight. Already being instructed to keep the recipe on repeat weekly! 😀
Broccoli and crunchy tofu are two of my favorite foods! I This is simple and on this week’s menu! I appreciate and love you ❤
🙌🏾 ❤️🫶🏾
100% am a spice queen. My wife is more of a spice princess, so I always tone down 2ish notches 😆
I just wanted to say, your videos are so well done. The way you put the whole recipe/cooking part at the beginning, with notes and explanations at the end, is clever and gives an excellent flow.
Lastly, your "considerations" aka the alternatives for low sodium/too busy/soy free etc etc are so cool. I love that you make your recipes versatile for different diets/lifestyles/moods. I love to cook, and my favorite part is having the confidence and know-how to make adjustments on the fly, depending on this or that. You capture that spirit with these "considerations", and I'm sure you inspire many to have that confidence to try new things.
All that is to say: you are very good at what you do. Can't wait to try this recipe. 💚
I was JUST trying to figure out what I was going to meal prep for the week. You save my backside and my pockets yet again bro ✌🏾
🙌🏾 happy to help!
Your food is really nice ! and simple 🙏🏽
🙏🏾 thank you 😊
Thank you for the oil free and salt free suggestions. I love your recipes. I’m trying this tonight. It looks amazing.
🙌🏾 🙌🏾 hope you enjoy!!
I’m loving this recipe, and the jazzy background music as well. This seems so easy to make, I think I’ll try it for dinner this week. Many thanks and blessing to you Andrew 🙏👍😄.
🙌🏾 so excited for you to enjoy!!
Made it last night, worked out great. If you wanted super crispy tofu you could do a deeper fry in a pan of oil and some more cornstarch on the tofu. As it was, I definitely got the takeout feeling. When are yall publishing a cookbook? Thanks for the vid

Andrew Bernard, serving beautiful food and philosophy every Sunday morning.
🤓 🫶🏾❤️
I made it for dinner tonight! It was fantastic!! I made it oil free and instead added sesame seeds to the tofu and broccoli before baking.
🙌🏾 really!!! simply amazing! 🫶🏾❤️
sesame seeds for the win!
Found you a short time ago. I’m a meat eater but my daughter in law is not. Always looking for new recipes. Love watching you cook. Enjoyable to watch, great instruction, love the discussion. Great job!
You had me at sesame oil and brown sugar. 😋 okay, garlic, onions and frying are always a 👍.
This was right on time. I can’t wait to try your recipe!!!
🙏🏾 enjoy!!
Hi Andrew. I really enjoy watching you cook. I look forward to watching it on Sunday with mom. 😊❤😋
Yum! This looks just like my favorite order from my local Thai restaurant, Tofu Pad Gra Tiem. Been getting this for 20 years, never tried to make it on my own. Looks delicious, thank you!
I'm going to subscribe to you now, I have to translate everything, but your way of cooking is worth it. Thanks
I love spice as does my husband. Thank you for the recipe. We really enjoy them. Also, how about some tempeh recipes.
im still trying to warm up to tempeh. im such a texture nerd and the texture on it is very different!
I love your style 👍🏻 and the explanations at the end and everything!! Thx
Goodness I wait Sunday mornings checking my phone! 😂🤷♀️ little late today making pancakes for grandson . This weeks offer has hit everything I have on hand for dinner. No store runs to finish…in fact the broccoli was just asking me for a chance to shine. Thanks Andrew, especially appreciate your musings at the end for extra options…showing that yes, you can vary what’s done easily for your needs. 🙏🏻🫶🏻
🙌🏾 gotta love when you already have everything you need to get started!
Oh! I have all the ingredients for this one. Thanks for the inspiration. Going to try it tomorrow
ooooh also looks like I need to test this out on an air fryer!
good choice!
thanks!@@thenarddogcooks
Beautiful jus beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊
Would love a peanut or cashew in this as well! :)
Great idea! would be a great addition!
Oh wow omg yes
This looks so good! Thanks!!!
You are so welcome! 🤗
This looks excellent, have always love tofu & broccoli but can't stir fry because I have an electric stove. The baked roasted broccoli must add a great taste .
Made it, loved it! Thank you!
This looks so good. I can't wait to try it.
I just made this and it's wonderfully flavorful
Just made this! 😲 so delicious!
Making this tomorrow! Thanks ❤
Hi andrew another good looking dish😊will be making this soon😮how could you almost forget the onions😂have to go getting ready to make you red pepper soup😊until next week 😊❤🎉

Absolutely gunna make this soon
Looks great!
Looks delicious 😋
Looks like dinner tonight :)
🙌🏾 🙌🏾
1000% trying this with chickpeas. Looks absolutely 🔥
🙌🏾 🙌🏾
Yum, yum
I wish there was a take-out place near me that made the food I've seen you make. I'm not an actual vegetarian, much less vegan, but all that kind of food has gotten really, really good since I was a kid 50 years ago when there was only yogurt and granola.
Mmm black pepper chicken 😋 Wait! Hey! 😂
😂 🙌🏾 🙌🏾
Your videos are therapeutic. Many thanks! ❤
I'm so glad! 🤗🙏🏾
Thanks!🎉
No problem!
I would like to know how much plant protein you need to eat to get the physique that you have. You need a calorie surplus to gain muscle. Would love to see what you eat in a day to build/maintain the muscle mass. Great videos!
thanks! ill consider for future content!
Dude, I love this recipe!!!!!!!!! Definitely going to try it...but will use scotch bonnet pepper:)
🙌🏾 that will really be 🔥
I know someone who loves broccoli 🥦 👍
Yeah its my dad
😂 🙌🏾
LOL, I accidentally made something VERY similar, almost identical, last night for dinner because I had all the ingredients and wasn't sure what to make! I do remember thinking when adding the garlic, "how much would Nard Dog put?" Only difference was I used maple syrup instead of brown sugar. Great minds think alike 😄
😂 thats so awesome!! 🙌🏾
Thanks for the oil free suggestions!! The meal looks delicious! really appreciated! The tofu would also work in the air fryer, right? :)
right!!
Looks delish,Spice Queen here.. I like freah peppers, though👍😋..What kind of rice do u use?
🙌🏾 basmati brown rice, queen! ❤️
@thenarddogcooks Good to know.. I never knew they had Basmati Brown Rice.I will have to look for that. Thanks👍😊
I really want to like tofu but I’ve heard that it takes on the flavor of what you cook it with. Is this true? I’m really trying to be healthier and I’m still working out the kinks. But I have definitely felt better since cutting out meat and chicken. I’m sure you hear this a lot but I enjoy watching your videos. They give me that ASMR hit.
❤❤❤
Hey there! How long do you have to keep the tofu and broccoli 🥦 in the oven. I am going to prepare this today.
Love your channel ❤
thank you 🙏🏾 20 - 25 mins. its updated on my site makeitdairyfree.com/black-pepper-tofu/
Thank you so much for the information
Okay. When I figure out how to do it. Lol
How long do you bake the broccoly and tofu? 30min?
Thanks Andrew. I'm on this one. What's the cook time on the tofu?
thank you! 20 - 25 mins. i updated in the recipe on my site! makeitdairyfree.com/black-pepper-tofu/#recipe
Im just learning, I cant have meat any longer. What are the differences between vegan, vegetarian and plant based?
I know you said the toasted sesame oil is a key component, but my wife is allergic. Any alternatives?
toasted sunflower seed (or pepitas) oil?
good question! peanut oil or or another toasted seed oil works. If not, it wouldn't be completely derail anything. I made this with olive oil the first time i was testing and the family loved it. the toasted sesame oil was just one of those moments that after you tasted the recipe made with it, you would be like "ummm... had no idea it could be even better than the first time".
Andrew , do you have a cook book available?
hey there! i dont. not yet. hopefully in the future. i do have all my recipes available currently on my website. makeitdairyfree.com/
@@thenarddogcooks Thank you! I have Been following for a while , but just starting to try the recipes.
Vegetarianism & Veganism is about good health. A number of years ago, I learned in a lecture that the human body is unable to digest black pepper so it collects in the gallbladder.
When I learned that, I never used it again because I knew of family members that had their gallbladder removed AND they used black pepper with a heavy hand.
It doesn't mean my food is bland by any means. I add cayenne &/or red pepper 🌶 flakes, instead. Oh, white pepper is merely bleached black pepper.
Actually, you are incorrect. While white and black pepper corns start out the same, they are picked at different times of ripeness and processed differently. Also, there is no bleach used in the processing of the white pepper.
thanks for sharing! my understanding is that eating "too much" of anything can be bad for you. black pepper its self is great and much better than its best friend salt. i believe this cant go for everyone as everybody is different. In my research, black pepper used in moderation is a good thing.
also Vegetarianism & Veganism is a choice many folks have made for various reasons. health is certainly one but not solely.
Do you have the recipe written?
yes its on my website! here is the link makeitdairyfree.com/black-pepper-tofu/
how long to roast tofu ???
why just dont write it when its happening ?
20 - 25 mins. thanks for the feedback
Sounds a lil 😮
Chicken and broccoli
