Here is a little prep tip that I do...I make an "I" Pot of rice and or beans (a pot each), and jar in quart jars. I reuse the lids and it will seal to a certain extent, but I always keep them in the refrigerator. Then we have "instant" rice and beans. I make it plain but then can flavor it to the dish I am making. It is soooo easy and handy. I am a new vegan since January 2018 - I am amazed at how great I feel and I keep loosing weight (I was not obease but stuck in the 140's at about 25 lbs over weight). I woke up this am and saw 122 on the scale (and finally my BMI is perfect) - wow, I love being vegan sooooo many benefits. Thank you soooo much for your wonderful cooking show. G-d bless you!
Its also possible to make sorbet in a vitamix/blendtech without adding liquid when you stamp it with the stick. It gets much thicker and creamier that way, like icecream. It's loud and sounds scary at first, but its completely safe, just keep on stamping ;) Its maybe recommended to cut the banana's in small pieces before freezing.
I checked twice and couldn't find a mention of how long and at what temp you roasted your ratatouille. I think you said 400 degrees but not the amount of time. Thank you and love all of your content. My sister and I have been binge watching all your shows. I will probably buy your book mainly because I love supporting people that bring value to our lives, but I think it's worth mentioning that you give so much info and knowledge for free - thank you for that!
Where can I find your Brussels sprouts with balsamic. Recipe?? I found your channel and is great! I’ve had addiction to salt, sugar, just about everything and excited about your channel! Thanks!
OMG!!! I used to ask hubbs Harry for a rabit to eat all of my veggie scraps - he always said NO! Now I am soooo happy that I can use the veggie scraps to make my own veggie (no salt) broth!!! Thank you, thank you!!!! I always buy the low sodium veggie broth, but it is not low enough for me. I wish I could send you pics from here of my dinner. Tonight: Poor man steaks, and stuffed deviled mini potatoes! I am soooo excited to have met you on here!
I love you guys so much I Lost 10 pounds just eating clean and learning every day and I just want to thank you for all your videos I’m still losing and I think I need to lose about 40 pounds more
The waffle potatoes always look sooo good but I don't have a waffle iron and out of room for gadgets. I was brainstorming and had already cooked an Instant Pot of potatoes yesterday. I remembered an old hamburger press from an old life. If put a piece of wax paper in the press and added 1/2 of a large potato. I smashed it, put it on a piece of parchment paper on a baking rack. I smashed enough potatoes to cover the rack and cooked them at 450 deg for about 50 minutes. I sprayed the a little bit with Braggs, garlic and onion powder before baking. they turned out real well and I ate them with homemade ketchup. Yummy!
Loved this impromptu video. I’ll definitely be making some of these meals. What can be used in some of your dishes that call for the salt-free mustard powder? I’m highly allergic to mustard, unfortunately. Thank you.
I love this episode but you can cook firm potato’s n instants pot I use stainless steel steamer put 2 cups water n bottom them put paddle steamer spread it out n can 4-6 potato depending size of potato’s. I have 6 qt pot
CHEF AJ Regardless, it was an excellent opportunity to see you in action and affected my grocery shopping choices! I already had a bag of veggie scraps in my freezer and this video got me to make broth with my iPot.
Thank you!!! This was great. What was the bag you used for making the broth ? I know you said it was from the Hardware store. Have you ever interviewed Dr. Gustavo? I would love to hear his weight loss story. Thanks again for the great recipes.
Please advise me, Carbs make me sooooo hungry and tired after eating them. I actually go into what I call a food coma after eating carbs! Why??? And I also put weight ON when eating carbs. Eagerly awaiting your help/ suggestions.
Question: I thought vegetable skins and peels were not good for broth making because they contain pesticides, even organic have some form of chemicals…….is this correct ?
Have you tried Beet Boost in banana ice cream? Really good! For people who like vinegar and find sweet potatoes too sweet, I like to sprinkle them with apple cider vinegar.
Oh boy, my stomach is growling watching this one AJ. Your videos are really keeping me on track. I’m going to organize my kitchen in the morning for a plant-based lifestyle!
Just got the Unprocessed book on Amazon yesterday and am feverishly reading it I will have it cover to cover read by tomorrow. I loving it your story is so relatable I can't put it down I am taking 15 min break to eat and watch your videos . Thank you for all you do.
Three minutes in the microwave? Sounds a bit labour intensive. 🤪 Regarding the sorbet: I prepared an AJ-style berry/banana frozen smoothie a la minute for my young nephews and spooned the excess into some Ikea “CHOSIGT” moulds to have little popsicles on-hand for their next visit. To my surprise, the popsicles worked brilliantly as they did not melt and drip and slip off the paddle-pop sticks. My six year old nephew was impressed and suggested the popsicle remained intact longer than expected because there was less water content like in a popsicle made from cordial. I can only speculate the water and structure may be retained in the fibre contained within the berry/banana blend. 🤪 Edit: Beaver anal glands!?
AJ I’d like to make a plant-based butterscotch desert for my husband who’s not plant-based. Also, could you tell me the name of the doctor you had on your show who’s also a plant-based chef?
AJ, I love you! I love the woman you are and what you have brought to the WFPB world! Keep going….unfortunately, you talk so fast it hurts my head 🤪. As an alternative, I’m going to have to follow your written words.
CHEF AJ Not if you live in Costa Rica. Food items are not allowed to be shipped into the country. Vitamins, supplements, a cosmetic item....the government controls are ridiculous.

This was soooo informative and inspiring....and real! Thank you, Chef AJ for allowing us into your kitchen.
You are both so generous of spirit and your time! Thank you so much for the ongoing inspiration and encouragement and good good energy!

Love this video. I am going to do both the broth and the potatoes in the waffle maker. Thanks so very much.
You are so welcome!
Rice from Texas has higher arsenic levels... I buy mine from California or Thailand...

I bought a refurb Vitamix on Amazon. Much cheaper and looks and works like new.
Great!
Me too! Still expensive but great investment. Had mine six years and going strong lol

What do you drink or like I like ice tea so what can I sweet my tea with
So is it better to have half of your plate filled with veggies maximum, or more veggies than half the plate for weight loss?
What are her thoughts about plant based protein drinks like evolve?
I don't recommend any type of plant based protein...just eat the plants!
Love the cozy 🏡 home
Do you eat starch after you breakfast veggies? Or just veggies until lunch?
Gustavo is such a sweetie. Thanks for this vid, AJ
We love you, Gustavo! Sweetest guy ever.
So true!

AJ I’d like to make a plant-based butterscotch desert for my husband who’s not plant-based.
Also, could you tell me the name of the doctor you had on your show who’s also a plant-based chef?
There are several, but I think you're referring to Dr. Colin Zhu. He's going to be on the show on the 30th also.
AJ, I love you! I love the woman you are and what you have brought to the WFPB world! Keep going….unfortunately, you talk so fast it hurts my head 🤪. As an alternative, I’m going to have to follow your written words.
I am in awe of your energy!! =^..^=
I think it's the food! :)
Ok. No breads. No pastry. The no sugar part is a challenge for me. Help
once you give it up, the cravings will eventually pass and your taste buds will neuro-adapt.
thanks for this, in cooking rice I thought it was 1 cup of rice to 2 cups of water..
It depends on what you cook it in

Any chance you can list the brands and flavors of spices and vinegars you use? You talk VERY fast!
Do you have my book? I have a whole resource list in their with all my discount codes. It's called The Secrets To Ultimate Weight Loss.
CHEF AJ I live in Costa Rica sans Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods. Shopping here is very basic.
You can buy almost anything on Amazon now
CHEF AJ Not if you live in Costa Rica. Food items are not allowed to be shipped into the country. Vitamins, supplements, a cosmetic item....the government controls are ridiculous.
Sorry I have no advice :(
Do chef AJ and Gustavo live together?
No. He lives in Dallas and I live in LA. Just dear friends.
Why all the plastic? Buy rice in large canvas bags.
OMG stop moving the phone !!!!
Yes
Yes
