10 TIPS: 1) Start with a clean work space 2) Prepare things first 3) Chop veggies fairly small (throw in the pan harder veggies like carrots first) 4) A higher protein source (optional) Tofu, tempeh, beans or lentils. 5) Cook onion, garlic and spices using low heat 6) Add a little water to prevent food from sticking to the pan 7) Cook the rest of the veggies medium- high heat (throw in the pan harder veggies like carrots first) 8) Stir often 9) Serve on a bed of whole grains and beans 10) Add garnishes to taste (guacamole, hot sauce, etc) Thank you Derek, you are the best!

One of the most helpful aspects of your channel was definitely seeing you do all that meal prep and realizing that you were eating way more vegetables than I was and I was eating way more white rice than you were. it made me start thinking about how to get better results and why eating so much white rice wasn't necessarily the best move based on my goals. I still eat white rice, sometimes lots of it but now I eat a lot more vegetables. Ivan B another great KZitemr also helped me in this same way. Seeing people eat more vegetables than you is almost like a challenge to come up to their level.

I make pickle hummus for my kids sandwiches for school, but it turns out it is amazing on potatoes, chilli, dip and can be the base for a salad dressing. I put on stir fry and it’s really good but I haven’t mastered the stir fry thing I will have to try your dressing mixed with my hummus and see what’s I eat lol. Thanks 😀

Rice, beans, bananas and potatoes are cheap. Maybe 20$. Then with the remaining 25$ get some fruit that you like, some nuts (some are cheaper than others), some greens and maybe 2 avocadoes depending on where you live.

David Flores Trader Joe's has the cheapest nuts and seeds! Buy all your grains and legumes from the bulk sections and frozen fruit is cheaper than fresh or just shop in season. Most definitely possible. What makes the diet expensive is honestly the mock meats and processed foods (and kimchi/sauerkraut) so stick to whole plants.

hey everyoe, ive tried to go vegan like 3 times now. but my gut never adjusts to the fiber and it leaves me feeling super bloated and extreme gassy all the time. when ive tried ive allways done oats, fruits, kidney beans chick peas, different veggies and potatoes. i allways soak the beans and rinse very well.. any tips?? ive literally gone 2 weeks of gass (super uncomfortable) to try and get past it but my body never adjust.
@reneverheij
6 жыл бұрын
somewhat similar here. I did read that it does take 2 full weeks at least for your body to adjust to beans.. chickpeas are difficult for me. I started soaking beans with bicarb for at least 12 hours, that def made it a lot less gassy. Bit less dry carbs and more salads / green smoothies / protein rich veg also seemed to help. That's all I have, also curious for more tips.
