Thanks Chef for continuing to host such a positive channel. I am going to be needing these recipes and advice 😋 I plan to eat so much better in 2023. It has been a process of stripping away and of renewing my mind.
I wanted to share this recipe that I cooked today:) Today, I ate stewed butternut squash, onions, jalapeno peppers, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, on white rice (but it would be good with any grain, especially oat groats I think.) It was probably the most delicious thing I have EVER had! Sort of like a spicy-sweet pumpkin risotto, but with jasmine rice. You simply have to make it. Here's the quick recipe - a pound of butternut squash more or less a pound of onions more or less jalapeno peppers to taste cinnamon allspice clove nutmeg water or broth necessary for sautéing - about 1/2 cup cooked grain of any sort (my serving suggestion, optional) I chopped the onions and tossed them into a saucepan. The butternut squash was chopped in 1 inch pieces with the skin intact. Jalapeños chopped too. The onions and peppers were at the bottom, topped with the butternut squash, since the squash would be more likely to stick. I simmered it dry until the onions started browning, then added 1/2 water and simmered it covered until tender about 15 minutes; I increased the heat to drive off any excess water, stirring if needed. Then I added the spices to taste, from most to least in this order: cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, clove. Then I allowed the pan to sit covered for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to mingle. I mashed it coarsely with a wooden spoon, and served it with cooked jasmine rice. I don't make true 10/10 recipes often, but this one was a REAL 10/10 even without the salt oil sugar. And I'll be sure to print this comment out, so I can make it again and again!!! I also assume this would be good with any squash or pumpkin, but I haven't put that to the test yet;) I also think red bell peppers would go devastatingly well, as would fresh tomatoes or eggplant, maybe corn too;)
@@stephikarolyi8706 Yeah thanks! It's so good, I'm making more of it right now! I put some rosemary, thyme, and garlic this time, in addition to the other spices. It smells like Christmas dinner, omggg:)
@@florangelahinckley8455 Salt would taste great! I might add a few grains of it at the table, but I go REAL easy on it, since it triggers my asthma and raises my blood pressure. Beet greens are also VERY good as a substitute for salt in this dish.
Thank you so much heather MCDOUGAL for sharing your awesome RECIPE and time with all of us to learn how to eat this way for Life you are awesome like your mom and dad.
So awesome to see you cooking heather and giving us All one of your favorite recipe and some fabulous information for people like me who cannot cook thank you so much for sharing WOW
I love you using those big pots myself and exactly what she said they're used for I used them for and I really like that simple meal that she put together I'm learning so much from them and from you to a Chef AJ. I just want to say also that you both look so healthy❤❤❤
Like you’re easy going way. Simple, easy meals. Simple cookware. Doug Lyle “style”. I know John McDougall from Kailua, Oahu Hi. Out of respect for you and Chef AJ I will just say, I’m glad you are more like your mother or I wouldn’t have even listened to this.
I love bean juice and I never throw it away, hot or cold in a salad, it's so flavourful, it's a shame to discard it. I use a stock cube and water instead of buying broth
I find it so ironic that Heather and her mom and dad...all 3 have the raspy hoarse quality to their voice and i keep wondering if they all just talk so much that their voices are on edge.....
@@happycook6737 I borrow all their books from the library, because I find it easier to read the book than on an I pad. I don't like the way she cooks though, I never buy can beans or anything in cans. My last product to drop was tomatoe paste. It's easy to make my own. I would never use stock in a box. People think companies will tell them the truth about what's in a box. When you put onions carrots and other veggies in a pot with water, there is your stock very easy.
Knowing Chef AJ was raised Kosher really helped me understand why she has a hard time with the wishy washy rest of us! It was hard to understand before.
I have gastroparesis and cannot eat anything with citric acid. Tomatoes are very high acid and I can't eat them. I'm always befuddled on what to add that would get the same results as tomatoes. I love tomato based dishes but my stomach just can't handle them. I love simple recipes too! Lots of peoples having gastritis and stomach issues after covid! I have been eating starch based 15 years.
@@libbyreed8588 Thanks! Peppers might work. One day I am going to try and make the nomato sauce recipe and see how that does. I probably couldn't do the tomato powder.
Freezing soups/one-pot meals NEVER taste as good to me - even when stored properly and not freezer burnt. Am I missing something on how to enjoy batch cooking?
The water from the beans might not be good to make meringues. The Indian chefs who cook their beans from scratch usually show you how to make the meringues from scratch.
And there is the problem - right there. Dr McDougal says every other year he may have a piece of turkey and it’s hit on negatively - this is why healthy eaters are not taken seriously. It’s ALL or nothing for some😢
I'm vegan and have gastroparesis I will never go back to the old way of eating. I just can't eat raw but don't seem to have a problem with Whole Foods and carbs! The bloating is bad for me but it is very strange beans seem okay for me. It is the acid I have to watch, vinegars, tomatoes, citrus, anything fermented will destroy me.
These two ladies have figured out how to be eating ALL DAY if they choose. And if they DO choose to do that, THEY KNOW WHAT TO EAT. Listen up, you passersby, THEY’RE NOT GETTING fat when they want to eat more. We understand energy density and ... VOLUME. Hey. PASSERSBY: tell your doctors we said hello 👋 🪓🪓🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🔥🕳
She is such a gentle sweetie..very much like her mum ❤

I couldn't get plant based eating right until I started following Dr. Mcdougall's starch philosophy

Is this a savory dish ? Why not to add some good salt?

A bell pepper before dinner with a GANG of clean salsa is a MAJOR LEVEL-UP 🤗
That IS a fantastic idea, Chef AJ: A “McDougall and Crew” cookbook 🤗🤗
Damn. This channel spills GOLD every minute, at LEAST 👊🏼
I could eat beans and white rice all day, every day too!
I love you using those big pots myself and exactly what she said they're used for I used them for and I really like that simple meal that she put together I'm learning so much from them and from you to a Chef AJ. I just want to say also that you both look so healthy❤❤❤
Cooking pasta in the Instant Pot is a game changer!
Can you share how I can do that ? Thanks 🙏
Yes please do a trip!!!!!
I just got the app! So excited!
Is there’s a podcast that Heather or AJ shows you how to cook recipes

Heather is such a delight, she reminds me of chic Audrey Hepburn
Does anyone put a bag of Vanilla Chai Láte Tea in their Pot Liquor? I did that last night during my walk and ... wow. WOW.
Loving the chat 👊🏼
I find it so ironic that Heather and her mom and dad...all 3 have the raspy hoarse quality to their voice and i keep wondering if they all just talk so much that their voices are on edge.....
Just 2 now I fill wide mouth mason jars fill up to the neck leave air space lid on freeze ready meals thaw overnight ❤
I make something similar. I add cabbage. My son jokingly calls it "prison soup" (as he eats 2 big bowls of it)!
Yes! DR KEN BERRY changing my, and others, 🌎🌍. Thank you, Ken!😋
So there is no more in-person programs?
Walking smokes a TON of calories. Very surprising.
Shoutout to doing BURSTS 👊🏼
How do you get Mary MCDOUGAL first Cook books she done??????
The McDougal's are giving away all their books free in electronic form this month on their website. Including their cookbooks.

I miss beans and lentils but I can't eat them due to a nickel cobalt allergy. No b12 either
Brown rice pasta. Where to get that ?
Amazon
❤️💚❤️💚🤓👍🏼
Send the candy to the pig farms. The piggies would like that. Piggies are happy-go-lucky little guys. They’re good to go 😇

I tried vegan and I have SIBO and the bloating was so extreme I had to stop. Bummer.
