    Just found the channel after I went through 2 years of depression and trying to find my path and passions in life. I found myself attracted to nature life, gardening, cottage life, cooking and things like that and this is an amazing channel to support and motivate me on my journey. :)

    Being from the Caribbean, dumpling is my favorite thing to eat. Yesterday I made a big pot of split pea soup with spinners.
    I love your passion for food and cooking.
    It's also awesome that you have your own garden.

    Raspberry leaf tea is the most underrated. It’s great relief for soft muscle cramps, particularly for period cramps. And it’s so tasty! If you have raspberry bushes nearby, pop the leaves in your tea too

    Your channel is SO inspiring. I've recently started to change my relationship with food, moving away from seeing it as a coping mechanism when I feel sad, to using it as a fun way to best give my body all the nutrients it really needs :) All your recipes are a great source of inspiration for this healing journey! A big big thank you for that!

    Dear Raz, I have fallen in love with your videos. I cannot get enough of them. I am addicted to your amazing ability to transform vegan food into something better than meat could ever offer. I am technically challenged somewhat with my phone and I cannot seem to search further for two of your simple recipes: sour cream and parm cheese. Having trouble finding them. There will probably be others tomorrow but for today this is what I need. I realize I can search many recipes on line but I want yours. Please help!!!!

  • @linzertube

    Congratulations on your Nana O’s Pop-up!! It sounds like it was very successful, albeit exhausting for you.
    You’re right about nature being a natural anti-depressant, as well as, a revitalizer. A trip to the beach near me, and I’m rejuvenated.
    And, all those beautiful foods from your garden are what Hippocrates meant when he said “Let food be thy medicine.”
    Thanks, Gaz, for the recipes…I look forward to making both for my family.👏🤩🌱

    @foxkitsune7 2 роки тому +1

    Aww Gaz, you need a longgg rest. Honestly, your health is more important! We can wait for you, but right now you need to rest!
    Perhaps you need to work less hours or days. From personal experience, I advise you don’t overwork yourself. For me I did that and my vision deteriorated over 3 years :( i regret it but learnt my lesson
    Now I prioritise my health more than ever and try to balance life, I’ve learnt to say no if I need a day to myself

I had no idea you could grow all those herbs in the UK either 🤩I am always astounded by your creativity and can't wait to try some of these new recipes. You show how delicious, healthy and varied vegan food can be which is why I always recommend you to anyone interested in going more plant-based. Thanks again for everything you do and well done for Nana O's!! x

    The enchilada recipe is awesome. I just made them for dinner, but used collard greens instead of chard. And I dumped a small can of chopped green chilies in the sauce. Thanks for sharing your recipes, I have made several the last few weeks.
