I love your current videos. here is help cooking healthy easy to make things. I normally do not watch those challenge videos but if you will enjoy it than do it! you are the captain of your ship!
Definitely going to give this one a try. My go to quick meal is a stir fry. I just cube some eggplant and tofu and throw it in the oven, then blanch some broccoli and then put it all together in a pan for 2 minutes with a sauce of soy/sugar/sesame oil/ginger/crispy chilli.
I definitely want to see the many ways to make sweet potatoes. To me, they’re like pumpkin pie, and as we head into the holidays, I’m eager to find whole food vegan alternatives to traditional holiday treats, so I can avoid the holiday weight gain, especially when it comes to avoiding refined ingredients like sugar, flour, salt. If you can invent a wholesome allulose sweetened “eggnog”, this would be so immensely appreciated.
Haven’t watched in a little while. Dude, you look great. Congrats! On the life change, success, marriage (same for Monica), and all the blessings life has gifted you! Thanks for encouragement and recipes over the years.
I have been addicted to Soups recently. Especially with winter coming. Any soup recipes would be appreciated! Love your content, success and personality!
I’ve seen a similar sweet potato chickpea recipe and we’ve added tahini to the sauce with chickpeas and it’s amazing, I’ll make this for sure, takes me back!
I’m on board with diary/challenge videos 👍🏼 all your content is good. I haven’t found any video “type” of yours that I don’t like. You’re just good at making everything entertaining really. I would love a mixture of all videos that come to you. Thanks for sharing the plant 🌱 “purifier” winter months coming and having to close all windows all day for months, I was already looking at indoor plants- thanks!
The tomato salad is just basil (maybe some balsamic vinegar) away from being bruschetta. Coming into autumn now I'd like a few more quick, hearty dinners
Awesome recipe! Will have to try it soon! Thanks! Don’t know if you ever experimented with the temperatures but the enzymes in sweet potatoes that convert the starches to sugars are released at a much lower temperature and once it gets too hot are deactivated so sometimes we bake them for a while much lower then raise the temp to finish.
No challenge videos. They're usually garbage. I watch you for quality content that I can implement myself. TH-cam is already filled with content farming "challenges" which aren't rigorous in any way.
I don't have sweet potatoes daily but several times a week. Your challenge sounds fun. My personal current challenge is to add 1 new fruit or vegetable every week and see how many different ways I can eat it/cook it.
I wonder if a separate channel for those challenges would be better. Keep this as a recipe channel and the second channel, lifestyle, challenges, vlogs
Not a bad idea, but I would either do it or not.. this channel alone takes me 40+ hours a week and I don't have the energy for a second channel. I dont know how some of these creators do it with 10 different things going on.
I would love to see more challenge vids, but also more vids like this, short and sweet plant based meals which can be thrown together easily but are also delicious! Yes please!
I'd love to see more recipes like this! I too have been wanting to back away from the plant based meats and go to more traditional vegan meals. I feel like the impossibles and beyonds were training wheels to get away from meat
As I also commented on Merle's video, did you know that you can purchase flat parchment paper? I have it for my 1/2-sheet pan, but you can also purchase for 1/4-sheet pans. It comes in a flat package so no need to crumble the parchment paper to get rid of the tendency to curl at the ends. Its only 6:30 AM, and my mouth is watering. Sweet potatoes for the win!
The first time ever in my life that ive been intrested in an ad! Thats so interesting. I used to have Areca palms because they were supposedly one of the best "air cleaner" type plants. Im super aware and sensitive to smells and air quality issues too. Sweet potatoes + chickpeas is what i use as a base for all the buddha bowls. Its a great combo!
That looks delicious! Thank you for the recipe, I'm going to switch to normal potatoes, I don't like sweet potatoes, but I bet it will be delicious the same.
Their is an already seasoned black bean in the canned section at Walmart. I bake a sweet potato and just dump these pre seasoned beans on it and it's just so easy and tastes great with minimal effort when I just don't want to cook.
I would love the food challenge videos, especially the sweet potsto a day one. I love sweet potstoes but am not creative enough with cooking to know how to make them different and interesting.
Please can show some simple couscous recipes which are quick to cook and require minimal ingredients ? Preferably higher calorie meals with lots of protein since I'm trying to bulk up!
Dinner doesn’t have to be a big fancy meal, it just needs to taste great, be relatively easy to make - at least during the week, and it should deliver the nutrition that you need. Chickpeas are a big part of my diet, with my go-to meal being chole chaat, which uses a lot of the ingredients shown in this video: chickpeas cooked in black tea and lots of Indian spices, combined with fresh tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, some chilies, fresh herbs, and potatoes (I usually use sweet potato). I usually add tamarind chutney, green chutney, and yogurt. If I have pita chips or peanuts, I may add them for more crunch. It’s really good! Heavy on carbs perhaps, but it’s not a problem for me. You can also turn a can of chickpeas into a really good pizza crust. I’m not kidding, I was skeptical but also curious, so I made a quick margherita pizza with fresh tomatoes, basil, garlic, and fresh mozzarella (I’m not vegan). I thought I would take a slice and probably toss the rest, but it was really freaking tasty. My legume hating child took a slice, ate it while standing in front of it, then took half the pizza after declaring it better than delivery. Go figure.
@@katharina1788 Here’s the recipe I have used for awhile. I think you need to eat it very hot, but my son says it’s perfectly fine at room temperature. Pizza Crust: 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, drained 1 egg ½ cup all purpose flour ½ teaspoon salt, to taste ½ teaspoon onion powder ½ teaspoon garlic powder ½ teaspoon italian herb seasoning ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese Pizza Topping: 3 tablespoons pizza sauce or crushed tomatoes 3 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese 4 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper, then brush 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil over it. Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas, then add to a blender or food processor together with the egg, flour, cheese, and seasonings. Process until you get a smooth dough. Transfer chickpea pizza dough over to the sheet of baking paper, then with the help of your oiled hands shape into a thin pizza crust. Try to make it as thin and even as possible. Spread sauce over the crust and sprinkle on shredded mozzarella cheese. Place the chunks of fresh mozzarella evenly over the crust. Add the toppings of choice, but don’t overload it or you’ll get a soggy crust. Bake in hot oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until cheese has melted and the pizza crust is golden baked on the bottom. Definitely do not take it out too soon, because you want the crust to be crispy and the cheese to be melted and bubbly. Serve very hot.
@@katharina1788 you are most welcome. I hope you don’t hate it, as I’d feel terrible about wasting your time and ingredients. But since my son, who dislikes chickpeas in general, really likes it, I’m optimistic you may as well. Happy cooking!
If challenges seem fun FOR YOU - absolutely go for it! It just feels so much nicer to watch things you are genuinely happy to film, edit and talk about even if it means you focus on different topics! I can see you are still insecure about this shift towards different types of content than you used to make but hey, your personality has always been the most important part so share what feels right! Also, sweet potatoes are just so so good - I am not surprised you enjoy them so much as base for a meal :D
I'm so glad you came to your senses and realized ultra processed is not the way to go. I can't wait to see more amazing wholesome meals like these. Nothing beats natural
Thanks for the video. I was initially interested in Neoplants but the only plant they offer is Pothos which is toxic if ingested by pets. Their FAQ page says that they will consider pet friendly plants in the future but for now Pothos is it. Just giving a heads up to people who might consider this before buying.
Oh Monica, You don't have to like everything that Mark makes! I sort of like all the different things that he made (not so much the parsley) but I don't think I'd like them mixed together. For the sweet potatoes, I think I'd like an onion and chive aquafaba sour cream.

This!
Black beans go better with sweet potatoes than chickpeas.
@@VisualizeHealing Although, I've had chickpeas in a Buddha bowl. They were pretty good.
@@TKevinBlanc Absolutely. I put them in Buddha bowls often. With a sweet potato however, I would prefer another bean.
