    QUICK NOTE: for the banoffee bars: I'd recommend you store the "cake" and the caramel sauce seperately from the tofu whip and the banana, so they all last longer and don't get soggy! assemble them as needed!
    I love making these high-protein videos because they give me so many new dishes to try in my day to day life! Lmk which one you're the most excited to try and also curious whats your favorite way to get exercise?

      FYI Trader Joe’s sells a cheap “wash” that removes pesticides on fruits/veg (so you could have zested that lemon if you used the wash on it). It’s a great product!

      P.S. Merle girl, you gotta look up how to properly dice an onion. You can get it done so much faster and easier than the way you do it. Chef vids will show you how to do it right (hint: keep those onion ends ON!). ;)

      Last comment (hopefully lol):
      I associate curry with heat/spicey (which I can’t hang with at all). Is this red lentil chickpea curry recipe spicey? Because it looks good, but I don’t want to suffer while eating it. 😅
      Edit: I just now saw your quesadilla recipe… You didn’t properly cook both sides of the quesadilla/tortillas. The tortilla has no coloring to it. Were you too scared to flip it to cook both sides after the plate disaster? Lol. I can’t imagine tortillas that aren’t properly toasted being that yummy. : /

      One of the things that actually worked for me, was especially In the begining, to just go two to three times a week, even if I did just two or three exercises... it helped me, to establish a routine, so that when I started increasing the level of difficulty and frequency, I already had a routine down...

    Thanks Merle for all the vegan high protein meal ideas and putting this “semi old” life long vegetarian some new people to follow.
    I’ll drop here since I forgot to do on the lazy meals my lazy meal that has served me for over 30 years. Tofu, edamame, onion, garlic and what ever spices you want. Simply sauté or stir fry and eat. Personally like the onions slightly caramelized and tofu crisp but it is completely legit any way.

    You know what would be great? A grocery list with the things you usually buy at the supermarket! I'm becoming vegan and still need some help with that!
    Also, I think in the last recipe if you had left both sides of the tortilla more brown it would have been much better because then the textures would have been great.

      @@MerleONeal Girl. I used to work in pest control. I had a guy who started working with me who was from Canada. He was SHOCKED by the lack of care when applying pesticides. Lack of PPE, not having families and pets leave the home, and treating in any weather, rain, snow, shine. Mosquito treatments killed my soul when I did the first treatment and came back for a second and there were no more leaf hoppers, flies, ANYTHING buzzing or flying around their yards. And that's all just domestic and cosmopolitan pests, and weed control..... I haven't taken the time to look into agricultural pest control besides getting a random cert for a raise $$ for in livestock treatments.... They literally send the animals like pigs and cows, whole ass mammals, through these little shower riggs (4 jets, like a square shower that they walk through) that's literally coating the animal in pesticides. Otherwise, reading Silent Spring and letting a lot of it go in one ear and out the other so I can stay sane lol. Thank god I don't do that anymore. But the damage is done, whatever it is. I breathed in and got so much on my skin, in my eyes, and in my mouth doing that job.

    I know, all too well, the pain of having a beloved plate break on you at the worst possible time: over a decade ago, a treasured piece of my hand-me-down set of black stoneware plates from Trend Pacific broke on the floor of a previous apartment, and it's hard to replace because they've gone out of production! ☹

    Hey Merle, I loveee these videos so much! I'd really appreciate you including the total calories per serving / dish along with the protein, since while I'm definitely trying to gain muscle, I struggle with overeating. keep up the good work!

    "Chopped coriander" is British for cilantro, not dried coriander. That may be why the flavours of the quesadilla didn't meld for you :)

    These all sound good and look delicious, but there's no way that's all he eats in a day for a man his size. Maybe he eats two portions at a time. I was so glad to see you add the beans to that beautiful sauce, but i know I'd still be hungry. LOL
    NOTE: My greedy tail is watching this while eating my fast almost no cook dinner - a package of barilla microwaved rotini (the only thing I "cooked"), a can of drained cannelini beans, a can of drain mixed veggies (the small size 8.5 oz), two handfulls of grape tomatoes, a big handful of cole slaw mix, Italian dressin, and a capful of bacos. Yeah, I'm eating it all myself. Told ya I was greedy. 🤣

    I associate curry with heat/spicey (which I can’t hang with at all). Is this red lentil chickpea curry recipe spicey? Because it looks good, but I don’t want to suffer while eating it. 😅

    • @aprilblossoms4
      @aprilblossoms4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Curry is not hot unless you add heat by adding chilli powder or chillis. Spice is not the same as heat. Cumin, coriander, turmeric are not spicy. Garam masala will add a little heat but you can add a couple of pinches.
      Also if you notice, most of these dishes are had with a side of yoghurt(or vegan yoghurt) to keep things in balance.

    If you want to save a step, its not super necessary to soak your cashews when you have a high powered blender. Those bad boys will whizz up just fine with your liquid.
