I’m glad you’re doing recipes that are higher protein. I am so with you on the need for more protein. I also lift weights and I value my hair. Thanks for the high protein emphasis. I think it’s important.
LENTILS! I have lost 54 lbs since August 29, 2023 when I began restricting my daily calories to between 1200 to 1300 calories a day along with increasing my daily protein. I’m very grateful to you for helping me along.
Lentils! Thank you so much. I’m one who is sensitive to soy, if I eat too much my skin gets really angry so I’ll be trying to make your recipe. Tempeh doesn’t affect me as much, probably because it’s fermented. Those tacos look so tasty, I’d eat them now if I had them and it’s not even 7 AM
I couldn't get over how thick the lentil & water mixture got on the stove! Thanks Debi ~ LENTILS Yes, I'm really enjoying the increased protein videos you're sharing with us 🌺 Debbie in WA Ü
Love the recipes! Never thought to do that with lentils. Will try. Today I made red lentil sloppy joes. Someone told me that they make chick pea tofu. Have you ever seen it?
I like your videos and I like how you out the food pics at the beginning, because then when I want to make your recipes I can just look threw my videos and see what it is I want to eat. Lentils !❤
I remember making the lentil tofu years ago when I first went WFPB and hated it. It was the texture but am willing to give it another go as our pallets do change. I didnt realise the TVP is the same as soy curls. We can get them here in the UK and I will also give them a go. Thanks Debbie
You are welcome! The lentil tofu does have a different texture than regular tofu but I like them both. Soy curls are great to throw into soups and a stir fry. Hope you enjoy the recipes💚
Thank you, for your easy recipes. They look do good. Something that would be really good on the "Lentil" tofu is Bragg's smoky BBQ Nutritional Yeast. Mmmm.
Don’t forget to try the Plant Boss brand! I get the southwest taco flavor. I make into into a taco salad and top with Plantiful Kiki’s BBQ ranch dressing. I am not usually a fan of soy, but I do make it with soy milk and I love it!
I did check it out. But it was almost $7 for a 3.35 oz package. I can get Bob red mills TVP for 3.99 for 12 ounces. I don't mid adding my own spice blends. I do love Plantiful Kiki's Ranch and BBQ ranch too! Thanks for for watching and for your comment💚
LENTILS - thanks Debi, I have seen the preparation of lentils tofu many times, but have never dared to try it. Now I want, you have made me curious. By the way, I love your t-shirt. Great! Have a nice Sunday.
I haven't ever made tofu with lentils but I am willing to try it even though I don't have allergies to soy and it would make a change from soy tofu. Another excellent video Debi and love 🥰 it and love 💓 Debi.
I love TVP and soy curls but they don’t love me back, gassy+++. But I experimented with rinsing the tvp with water and draining well, then soaking and rinsing again and draining well again. After cooking them with finely chopped onions, carrots and mushrooms and spices, voila, very little gassy outcome. I’m going to try it with soy curls too, Anyway, hopefully this tip is a help to anyone else out there who struggles with excessive gas after eating TVP.
Great recipes- can I skip the salt in lentils while cooking on stove??? God bless you from grandma Katie in Oregon. Thank you so much for soy free tofu, which I cant have
Lentils! Thanks for sharing your recipes and great information. Just to clarify if a person is looking to lose weight but keep up with protein, are you saying that tofu has fewer calories than lentils or the reverse? Thanks!
You are so welcome. As far a the calories for red lentils compared to tofu, 100 grams of red lentils is 323 calories and 9 grams of protein where as 100 grams of tofu is 83 calories and 10 grams of protein. Hope that answers your question.
Thank you! I appreciate your sharing that! I am surprised. I thought that tofu was a higher density of calories. I really appreciate all the videos that you share. I find them very practical and doable. @@ChewonVegan
Hi Debi! What do you like to add to an opened can of beans? I would like to keep beans in the fridge, but sometimes they get too dry. And then like spices. And I don’t like beans that are too sweet. All suggestions appreciate it. PS - I’m trying to add more beans as an easy side to keep in the fridge.
If leftover beans get a bit dry in the fridge I either add a bit of water and some garlic powder and onion powder and heat them for 45 seconds or so in the microwave. You can also add a bit of salsa or plant based cheese sauce.
I have found that getting plenty of fiber and not overeating keeps soy from upsetting my stomach. A 5 ounce portion is my limit. Yours may be different. The calorie to protein ratio - and the price- of actual tofu really can't be beat by alternative tofus.
I have no problem eating soy and yes it is true that tofu is cheaper then the store bought soy subs and has higher protein . That's why I love using the lentils. so cheap. I also wanted to give people an alternative to soy. I'm glad you found a way to enjoy soy it is my favorite. Thank you so much for sharing💚
I need to make TVP tacos. I always have it in my pantry but don't use it often. Besides tofu, whatbelse do you pair with stiry fry veggies and rice? Ive been using chickpeas but half the time, I forget to add them in.

I've made tofu with both red and green lentils.
Awesome! I really like it.
Good to know❤
Lentils. I have a bag of TVP and wasn’t sure how to use it. Thanks so much for using it in the tacos.
You are so welcome! Enjoy!

Debbie do you have recipe for stretchy cheese using cornstarch.
I don't have a recipe for that. I'm sure you could find a good one on You tube. 😃
