      That soy latte that isn't a latte we call Gold milk in sweden... Basically because you use turmeric and milk as the base and it has a golden hue to it but also I guess because it is gold for your immune system to eat turmeric :)

    Lifelong carnivore here. Have been making some lifestyle changes over the last couple of weeks. Exercise, better eating, the whole thing. My gf wanted me to check out the sauce in this video to make sometime. Ended up watching the whole thing and have made those addictively delicious frijoles twice now. Adding more plant based options into our menu now, so thanks for expanding my horizons a bit.

      @Aerionix1. Fellow Keto-Carnivore here. Smart move bro. Tho there are amazing health benefits of with the Carnivore / Keto diet, there is so much to gain by intelligently adding certain plant based foods (esp. fermented foods) to one's diet. There are certain phytonutrients / micronutrients the body needs for optimal health that aren't as prevalent in animal based foods. In my opinion, combining the best of 'both' worlds (grass fed animals + plant based foods) is the way to go!

They're all such high quality recipes that have been tested and communicated with care and love. I just hope that you know when you sit down every morning to plan out your work day that you are actually changing people's life for the better. And so does Max! You guys are a lovely team and I used to only watch the videos because they're so entertaining, but then they enhanced my love for cooking and following recipes as well. Thank you for all that you both do. Hope you see this because you deserve to know! ❤️ With love from Budapest, Hungary :)

    I honestly enjoyed this more than I thought I would. You've inspired me to try out new things and maybe be a bit kinder to myself with regard to snacks. Having an eating disorder, snacks are usually not on my menu at all, but when I watch other people having a healthy relationship with food, I think to myself, maybe one day, I will be able to that. Please, make more videos like this. Some of us need an example to follow. This is so important. You're helping me and I'm sure many more people more than you know. And thank you for sharing your life with us. :)

    Here's a tip about the giant bread. Put it in the fridge for a few hours before you slice it up (I mean after you've had that amazing first two slices off the end with lunch). The bread becomes much more firm and easier to slice. Then put it in those handy silicone zip bags and freeze it! I'm not vegan, but I'm always looking to reduce animal products in my life. I really love your approach & sense of humor. And your recipes look very tasty - thank you!

    It is honestly so refreshing to have someone that is nót into diet culture, but also can enjoy a glass of whine, but doesn't drink lemon anything or talks about detoxing your toe hairs. I personally love intermittent fasting as well, exactly for the same reasons you mentioned: I just like enjoying a meal at 12/13 and having 'half my work day done'. As I am not eating in the mornings I am superfocused usually and drinking lots of fluids.

I have a bunch of Indian spices from last year's couple month quest into indian cooking, again for less reliance on meat and for a flavor dense, nutrient packed dinner option.

    Loved this video. Great inspiration. Love the ice cube hack for rice and using avocado to massage kale. Great to see Max and Hannah too! Was the abundance of year round produce a big reason why you moved from NY to Southern California (I know being near family was likely a huge draw)? Wishing you all a Happy New Year. Looking forward to the new cook book.

      Hi Nicole! Thank you! The ice cube hack has changed my rice life lol. It was primarily just for family, but the abundant year-round produce is definitely a nice perk! Happy new year to you!

    Loved this, Nisha! I’ve been vegan for 6/7 years at this point but it’s always nice to see how others eat. I saw the length of this video and was like 🥴 but you’re literally one the most entertaining foodtubers I follow. Also, am I the only white boy who gets confused by all the names for Indian beans/pulses? Yellow split peas, mung beans, moong dal… all the same? 🥴 for real this time lol

    • @RainbowPlantLife
      @RainbowPlantLife  2 роки тому +4

      Lol I also saw the length of the video when my editors returns it and was like I hope it’s good 😅 Glad you think I’m entertaining! No worries, the terms are definitely confusing!
      Yellow split lentils or moong dal is the split version (yellow in color) of the whole mung bean (which is green snd takes longer to cook). Yellow split peas are also different - a type of pea, not lentil. Personally, I love moong dal but I don’t like split peas very much. And mung beans, I like but usually only sprouted.

I made your red lentil daal from the "If I could make one meal for a vegan skeptic" video and it opened up my world to flavorful healthy cooking. I just made the Tahini sauce from this video, and the only thing I changed was adding garam masala since I didn't have coriander and garam masala has it and has been my favorite blend since I made the daal, and it is SO. GOOD. Thank you so much for your content, it really has changed my life! ❤️

    You are so cute! I absolutely love your approach to life. As a 30+ year-vegetarian (and almost 3 years purely vegan) I can really appreciate the way you make these dietary choices look and taste so diverse, delicious and "ordinary". By that I don't mean ordinary in taste at all, but ordinary as in, this is stuff we can all make and enjoy--it doesn't take being a gourmet chef to do it. I am so tired of hearing people (upon discovering that my husband and I are vegans) say "But, then WHAT do you eat?!" as if meat were the only food in the universe fit for human consumption. They seem to think that we just eat grass and carrots, apparently. It always seems to take them aback when I tell them that I eat everything EXCEPT meat and other animal products. When I point out that grains, all non-animal fats, vegetables and fruits are all vegan, they're actually kind of stunned. I mean, they "know" that intellectually but it doesn't seem to have occurred to them in more common sense fashion. They are so used to focusing on meat as the centerpiece of every meal that they simply overlook the rest as something akin to a garnish or decoration for the meat. Your recipes and the casual way you demonstrate that a vegan lifestyle can be completely satisfying and even fun is a real breath of fresh air! Thank you!

    • @RainbowPlantLife
      @RainbowPlantLife  2 роки тому +3

      Hi Deborah! Loved your message! We’ve really been trained to view meat as the center of the plate. Aside from the ethical, health and environmental implications, i think it’s also creatively stifling. You have to cater everything around the meat. But when you get rid of it, you have such a diverse range of foods and ways of cooking, it’s so much more fun! Glad you enjoy my approach 🥰
