      @@thewhowithin4283 actually yes ... if you're making curry you begin with garlic paste and ginger paste so you're right!! Reading Michael Gregor ... just plain avocados don't do it for me so guacamole or kimchi etc. but I start with microplaning the garlic; apparently its nutrition peaks at 10 minutes. Who knew? By that time the rest of the meal is ready etc. Yes garlic rules and covid 19 masks aside, just chew on some parsley to avoid offending someone, or share a meal with them in which case neither of you will smell a thing lol

    If I had a $100 vegan shopping list I'd go vegan I have no clue what to shop for and tuna, spinach, oatmeal, chicken, rice, sweet potatos is an easy shopping list. I need protein so that's why I'd need a good shopping list. I love animals and think even a small fish deserves to have a beautiful life. If anyone could be so kind as to point me in the right direction I'd 100% be grateful and totally go vegan. Thanks in advance and happy mother's day!

    • @katieforeman7947
      @katieforeman7947 3 роки тому +1

      I would suggest just dropping the chicken and tuna and adding hummus, tofu, lentils and nuts and nut-butters. (peanut butter sandwich instead of tuna.) (you can get your omega-3s from flaxseed or algae omega 3 supplements.) I've heard that the Forks over Knives website has an excellent meal planner. Good luck! I think you'll really like being vegan once you get going.

      Hi, there! Based on the shopping list you wrote, I think chickpea, spinach, oatmeal, soy curls or seitan, rice, sweet potatoes would be a great place to start. Just replacing like with like, chickpea could be mashed up and used just like tuna, soy curls or seitan could be cooked and flavoured just like chicken! I recommend also getting hempseed to add some good fats and extra protein ;)
      Good luck, and good eating!

    • @friendlyfremen
      @friendlyfremen 3 роки тому +1

      Your shopping list is already mostly vegan, you’re off to a good start! Swap chicken and tuna for beans and tofu or tempeh, both are affordable and have a lot of protein. If you use canned beans, make sure you rinse them first, it will help a lot with digestion. Also combine them with rice in your meal to make a complete protein in your body.
      Here’s an example of everything I ate today:
      Breakfast: Smoothie made of 2 bananas, 126g of frozen berries, 30g walnuts, 13g flax meal and 1.5 cups soy milk. Also had 2 slices of whole grain toast.
      Lunch: 85g 50/50 salad mix with 2 tablespoons poppyseed dressing and a whole package of tempeh chopped and tossed.
      Snack: Sumo orange
      Dinner: 1 can chickpeas drained and rinsed stir fried with 3oz of kale, 186g stir fry veggies and 1/2 cup brown rice, made a quick sauce out of vegenaise, mustard, nutritional yeast and tahini
      I’m 6’6 and 273 lbs, eating a little under 2600 calories a day. Today I had 110g protein, all vegan. Every body is different, and please note I’m not a professional, I just am a nutrition education student. I’m just saying that for me personally, it’s very possible and easy to eat clean while eating enough to build muscle. I hope I this helps!!

    • @bw1955
      @bw1955 3 роки тому

      As someone else said, replacing tuna with chickpeas (garbanzo beans) is cheap and easy. Look up some easy recipes for chickpea toona or “tuna.” Add some lemon pepper seasoning to that and oh man!!
      Protein is not even an issue on a plant based diet. As he says in the video, I would be more concerned about zinc and things like that. Make sure you eat plenty of ALA Omega 3 from chia, flax, and walnuts and supplement a couple times a week with a vegan DHA/EPA pill. Can usually find them decently priced on Amazon. Algae makes DHA so you’re just taking the fish out of the equation.
      Protein is still important so be sure to look up good plant based protein sources. Pistachios are now considered a “complete protein.” Just eat a variety of plants and you’ll be pretty much ok.
      Like everyone else, vegan or not, you should also take a D3 and B12 supplement a few times a week.
      Iodine is also really important so make sure you use iodized salt or eat some seaweed regularly.
      Just don’t be one of those super restrictive fruitarian, smoothie only, fat free plant based people and you’ll be fine. Eat balanced and sensibly.

    Hi Derek, on the sulforaphane topic: From some searching online I've found that store-bought mustard (pre-prepared jars/bottles) may have been heated up at some point in the production process. So it's probably a safer bet to use ground mustard powder as you know it is raw (Some websites say mustard is heated to 118(c) degrees some say 60(c) and some are raw)
