Hi Jeremy, just came across your channel yesterday & I love you and your family, especially for keeping it so real. Your family’s reactions remind of my own sometimes. I got a suggestion for an awesome cookbook for you to review and feed your family for a week. My kids are not fully vegan and absolutely love the recipes in this book. “Practically Vegan” by Nisha Melvani. She uses minimal oil but can easily be substituted with water. I’m in Mississauga btw👋🏻
Greetings neighbour!!! Adding this book to the list! My kids aren't fully vegan either - they're pescatarian for the most part, but all our meals are vegan - unless they make their own (sometimes they'll add cheese to what I make) Thanks for the kind words!!
A couple of tips for the pudding. 1. To keep the skin from forming put a layer of plastic wrap loosely but directly on the top of the pudding. Don’t put in the fridge until it has cooled down. That helps it not have the layer of condensation on top. 2. When using cornstarch or arrowroot to thicken it needs to be cooked for about 10 min to completely activate the cornstarch.
I love how you guys are so real. With a lot of humor and very inspirational! Feedback from my whole family is absolutely wonderful. Thank you to all you guys.
Hey Jeremy! Just discovered your channel last night as it showed up in my feed - and I’m very grateful it did! I’ve been following many plant based and vegan channels the past couple of years and I have to say that you and your family bring a fresh, new perspective that is as genuine as it is entertaining and informative. Time well spent. It feels like we’ve been friends for years. Cheers from Pickering!
Greetings new friend from down the road!!! This is honestly such a wonderful message to get Entertaining, Genuine and Informative is 100% what I'm striving for here, so to know that's coming across means the world to me. Thanks so much for the comment and welcome to the channel - lots of stuff here to keep you going!!!
First time watching your channel and really enjoying it. We've been a long time fan of Kiki and I get it when you talk about it being simple and Kiki is all about the simple but also these are recipes that helped her loose 70 pounds and keeping it off for years. I don't mind the water in the pancakes instead of milk because it's more weight loss friendly, that kind of thing. I will be checking out your recipes too !
Appreciate all of this - and you're right about why she makes certain choices. I just know that as someone who lost 170 pounds eating this way, there's way to add flavour without adding calories. the 30 calories per cup of non-dairy milk is nothing in the grand scheme, especially when it's split up over several servings. It's the difference of 5-10 calories per person, etc... Appreciate this feedback!
Thank you so much for this and all your videos. Being wfpb it is really crucial to find more creative people making real, relatable content and family recipes. I have a teenage son and it's not always easy to find recipes that work for both of us. I actually have Kiki's book. She's amazing. I will say she does eat a ton of veggies, even if her recipes don't always include a lot of them. Everything is meant to be eaten with a side of veg. ❤
I love Plantiful Kiki, so this video caught my eye. I truly enjoyed watching your channel. You definitely have a new subscriber ❤ Love your family vibe and how you interact with each other! 👏🙌✌️
I’ve been vegan for 3 years and love this book❣️Her channel is awesome as well. She’s one of the first influencers I followed. I highly recommend her book, it’s gorgeous too!🥰
I love Kiki’s cookbook as the recipes are easy but I do enhance them as you did by adding more vegetables. Another cookbook to try is “Straight Up Food” by Cathy Fisher. I didn’t check to see whether you had already tested out her recipes but her Tu-No Salad and Oatmeal Raisin Cookies are both super delicious! Thanks for all the candid comments as they are really helpful to others.
@@pbwithjeremysince Cathy’s book is not in your library, maybe you could try recipes from her website. Just a suggestion. Looking forward to your next cookbook review this Sat.
@@pbwithjeremy Jeremy I also love Isa Chandra Moskowitz and all of her cookbooks! I loved your review of Plantifully Lean and would love to see you review Isa Does It. That is a gorgeous cookbook....whoever did the photography should be congratulated!
I love Kiki, although it’s funny she made a cookbook because for the longest time she absolutely hated cooking!! 😂I also suggest you take a look at Broccoli mum. She’s English, so inventive with simple easy ingredients and turned into the most delicious combinations.
Love this video! Your daughter was funny walking behind you on camera, she made me laugh! The chili fries and brussel sprouts dinner looks delicious, like the perfect comfort food. The avocado & bean toast looks awesome, and the bread 😋 Excited to try the lava cake too, and your mug cake recipe. I am going to check out your website to get your cheese sauce recipe others too. Would like to see a cooking video from Dr. Furhman's Eat To Live Quick and Easy Cookbook. Thanks! BTW, my favorite muppet is Cookie Monster!
Coooooooooookie! The fuhrman books are on my list to get to for sure - thanks for adding to that recommendation. Let me know if you try anything off my website!!!
I haven't tried the pudding recipe yet, but now I need to try it to see how mine turns out. I've been following Kiki for a long time now.... You didn't mention that She always adds a little box on the recipes that says 'Make sure to pair with a vegetable or fruit side for your 50/50 plate. Don't forget to eat your veggies first!'.... ALSO, the southwest ranch recipe is 20 servings. Not 2.
Ah dang about the chocolate pudding from this cookbook! Recently I tried Jill Dalton’s recipe from her Plant Based Cooking Show channel which had way less ingredients and just uses oats as the thickener and I really enjoyed it!
I love Kiki! I use this cookbook ALL the time. I make her ranch dressing and “ cheese” sauce on a regular basis. Her lentil stew is my all time fave. I could eat it everyday.
You cracked me up on this one! I will say - this was my first vegan cookbook so it really did help me to see ideas that were not necessarily a recipe! 😄
Ooh, would be great if you could try her cookbook for real! I don’t have her cookbook but one of my favourite recipes from her blog is her instant pot sweet potato chickpea curry 😋
Have you reviewed Plant Based Cooking Made Easy? Old auntie tip: cornstarch and soy milk works better for that old fashioned type of pudding, and it does help to let it get to room temperature before putting in the fridge. If you don't want a "skin" to form, lay wax paper or plastic wrap directly on the pudding surface. Love your cookbook reviews; saved me some money on this one!
My pleasure! Thank you Old Auntie Julie! ;-) The instructions told me to put it in the fridge right away, and so I fought my inner instinct - which I shouldn't have. Also - using a metal bowl didn't help I don't think!
Jeremy, I love your cookbook reviews. As for the non recipe recipes, remember that not everyone knows what you know. I once taught a 30 something woman how to make ice at home. She thought you could only get ice in bags from the store. No one had ever told her.
Thanks for this. Can you give me an example from one of the videos where I could have been more helpful? I add in a lot of tips and tricks along the way - but curious what inspired this comment. Thanks!
Hi Jeremy, As a type 1.5 diabetic, I would probably make the Plantiful Kiki’s recipes because most seemed lower in fat. If I were to add almond butter or coconut milk from a can, although delicious, my blood sugar would shoot up to over 300! Your daughter was very funny in this video, parading back and forth behind you 😂
I have this cookbook but haven’t tried any of the recipes yet. Disappointed that all the recipes you made were not winners. I love Kiki’s channel - her dishes look so yummy!
He put a twist on the recipes and didn't follow them exactly. I feel it's not a good review since Kiki's book is to help with weight loss. And he's telling people to add almond butter for "more fat".
To clarify - I believe I mentioned why she had the recipe as she did - for people who were looking for weightloss, and was merely suggesting that if that wasn't someone's goal and they wanted to add more flavour, that was a way to do it. That said - I appreciate the criticism - I believe that recipes for books to be made by home cooks aren't to be written in stone - they get modified by the person making it, but the idea stays in tact. If that's not your thing then I understand. Appreciate you checking out the video either way!
Thanks Jeremy for another fun video. Love your family, they’re so honest. Your review basically agrees with reviews I’ve read about this book. It’s lovely but very basic for those of us that have been following this lifestyle for awhile. I enjoy Kiki’s videos, they’re beautifully done. She shares about her family, their life on their homestead, maintaining her weight loss, inner beauty, etc. I haven’t tried many of her recipes. I would enjoy seeing what your family thinks about some of the recipes in Dreena’s Kind Kitchen, by Dreena Burton. Have a great weekend!
Thank you for this! I've had lots of people request Dreena's book so it's on my list for sure - I'll get to it as some point - thank you! This is a good beginner book, but for my family it was just a bit too basic - still loaded with helpful stuff for people.
Awesome!!!! I just did Plant You - you can watch it here: What I Eat in a Week: Plant You Cookbook Review | Plant-Based Vegan th-cam.com/video/8Uag3rj5DYs/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching!!!!
Some suggested cookbooks to try would be PlantPure Comfort Food by Kim Campbell (or any of hers but that is her newest), The Clean Vegan Cookbook by Jackie Akerberg, or Simple Green Meals by Jen Hansard (is vegetarian so would have to adjust or make the vegan recipes but is wonderful).
I have a book suggestion! Thug Kitchen - it is vegan and it’s actually fun to read the instructions because of the language and i think you’ll get a kick out of it.
I LOVE that series - I own them all. They've rebranded as Bad Manners - but I'll get to one of these books for sure. Should I do the original or the newest? (they have another one coming this fall)
@@pbwithjeremy I love your channel and your family! I would love for you to do any of them but I know thug kitchen best. That creamy peanut slaw is to die for 😋😋
It shld have been allowed to cool b4 putting in fridge & NO lid . That was the problem & have found this out from experience😊 . That eld have been delicious . I love that cookbook❤ . You are awesome Jeremy !
Thanks for your honest review, Jeremy & Fam! Please tell your wife I'm just crazy about her 😃 I love her personality! Are we suppose to call her Emily or Wolly? Thanks for the video! 💕
You are so hilarious! Especially, the "I'm sorry that's not a recipe thats just instructions for how to eat cereal." I laughed out loud and had to share this with others. I do really like Plantiful Kiki and her simple recipes since I'm not a great cook and prefer to keep it fairly simple or I won't make it. I have this cookbook and appreciate you making the recipes come to life. I prefer to see a recipe demonstrated before I make it myself. Caitlin Shoemaker "From My Bowl" has some great vegan "dump and bake" recipes (put it all in a casserole, stick in the oven, and done). Will check out your website too. I'm oil/vegan butter free so I may have to modify a little.
AWww - thanks! That recipe is already on my to-do list so happy to know you want it as well! I try to keep the recipes on my website simple as well and a lot of them have videos on the channel as well. Pretty much all of them are oil free! I don't use it except in a stirfry for flavour (sesame oil)
I have been thoroughly enjoying your videos. The longer you’ve done them, the better they’ve gotten. I’m plowing through them. I was wondering if you could possibly share any information on the chocolate covered quinoa that I’ve seen you use a few times. If it matters, I’m in the US. Thank you very much!
Thank you! Glad to hear we're continuing to improve!!!! the only place I've ever see the chocolate quinoa is our bulk store - but you can also get it here: amzn.to/46kt4IC
Just stumbled on your video because I follow Kiki on her channel. Great review. Love the honesty. Will probably borrow it from the library as well. Would love a review of the fairly new “The Clean Vegan Cookbook” by Jackie Akerberg. Thanks in advance%
Welcome aboard! That other book is already on my list - so I'll get to it sometime in the future - I've been blessed with a LOT of requests lately - thanks so much for giving our channel a shot an glad you like it! We have a bunch of cookbook reviews here :)
I love Kiki's recipes! She has a TON on her website if you're wanting to try some out before buying the book. I have the book on my wishlist for now. RE: Oat flour pancakes... yeah that's just how they are. I am wheat free (migraine trigger) so I don't have the option to use wheat and sub with oat flour a lot. It's nice because it's easy and cheap (just blend up some oats) but it's VERY dense and sits like a rock. I find flours with corn in them are tastier but significantly more expensive. Anything labeled "gluten free" is expensive just because of the label, it's so annoying! Like we get a brown rice pasta and it's almost 4x more expensive than whole wheat pasta. WTF? RE: Her cheese sauce, I actually use only potatoes in mine. I like carrots, but I find that in the cheese sauce it makes it too... earthy? I also add more seasoning than she does but I think I make a larger bath over all. I also find a TBSP of hemp seeds is a good replacement for the cashews if you're trying to lower the fat/calories for weight loss.
Thanks for all this - try the gluten-free pancake mix I posted of my own in the description below - it might be the ticket for you! Thanks for all your thoughts on this! Luckily where we live the brown rice pasta isn't too bad price wise.
This is the first video of yours I have watched and I really enjoyed it! I didn’t see the Asian slaw recipe on your website, can you please share it? It looks delicious.
You guys are FUN! Really enjoyed this video. So I have this cookbook and the very best recipe in it is Thai-inspired Noodle Salad. Try it! So dang delicious! I am addicted and make it probably 3 times a month. But seriously I could eat it practically every day.
Awww thank you!!! If I ever pick the book up again I’ll try it. We have some recipes of our own like that we use so I know why you must love it so much!!!!
Your son seems to be a natural in the kitchen, maybe when they have a break from school he could do a week of cooking lunch or dinner from one of the cookbooks.
Hi Jeremy, I have a suggestion for a cookbook for you to review with your family it is called Healthy Girl Kitchen Cookbook. I love that you review vegan cookbooks, it helps me decide if I should purchase the book. Thank you for your real and fun videos.
Hey Mary! Thanks for the suggestion. I've actually got that book on a waiting list from my library - so as soon as it comes in I'll be doing it - so look for it in the upcoming months!
you need to use soy milk to her dressings to make them thicker, almond milk or other milks do not work as well :) Just a tip that I have learned from her dressings.
Oh wow! I've only been to Germany as a stopover on a flight! I've cooked from that book before but haven't done it as a video - will add it to the list. Thanks!!!
I'm so glad that you reviewed this book. I'm late to this: I just discovered you guys (happily!). I had been considering buying Plantiflly Lean but had been worried that it would be a waste for me. I watch Kiki's videos (hoping that I, too, can lose 70lbs) but I don't need a book that tells me how and why to be vegan and I guessed that the recipes wouldn't be new to me. Thanks!
Hello from Ontario Canada. I always use recipes as a guide only and then I spice it all up my own way....sounds like you need to do that with this particular book as well. As you said...a nice entry level book.
Same. I get that her style is that she doesn't like to cook and keeps it simple, but then it feels like it's just a money grab for her followers. I know it's full of other interesting information about her journey and being plant-based - so perhaps if that's the way you're looking at it then it has tremendous value - but as a cookbook - not so much, IMO.
You should make a video of how you remedy fails. Like what did you do with the cookies? Maybe you could crumble it up, add maple syrup and then sprinkle it on some other dessert thing. So basically, what happens to to the food? I'm pretty sure you're not throwing it out, right?
I watch Kiki's channel a lot. Her recipes are simple because she says she doesn't like to cook. She started cooking to eat better and ultimately lose 70 pounds.
Hi. Really glad I found your videos recently! Love you and your family. It's so fun to see you try recipes from cookbooks!!! I wish you'd make more savory meals but I know you're making the things your family will eat!❤ have you tried the Prevent and Reverse heart disease cookbook by Jane Esselstyn? They have a great oat burger recipe in there.
I'll add that book to my list! And thanks for all the kind words. I try to make a balance between sweet and savoury when I pick the recipes for the week/video - but sometimes we lean on the sweet side. Thanks for letting me know - I'll work on it in future videos :)
I find that arrowroot powder doesn’t thicken as well as corn starch. Could be the reason why the chocolate pudding didn’t set that well. Looks good though.
The lack of vegetables in the recipes is understandable for the way she eats… she makes a 50/50 plate with half of the starchy recipe, and half fresh veg of her choice. So you might have an enchilada, and lots of steamed broccoli… I love many of her recipes! They’re simple, easy, and tasty!
Great video - this is a very balanced review of Kiki's book. I ilike it but yes, some "recipes" are really not recipes. There are some great ideas for new vegans though.
Crinkle crinkle..I laughed so hard. I love the banter. Very recognizable! Hey -I can't find where you posted the enchilada sauce recipe. I jotted down the ingredients on freeze frame- but don't know how much water to add.. It's been 6 months since you put up this video - what are the chances you still have it somewhere?? Stores don't carry this stuff over here in Belgium so I'd love your tried and true recipe find... please?🌮
Could you please do an fpies week. My son has been diagnosed and finding recipes or adapting them hasn't been easy. He can't eat protein so most grains and nuts and seeds and legumes are off limits. He can tolerate 1/4 cup corn Maza (apox every day's)and Ezekiel bread.
Hi Jeremy, been watching your videos for a while now and love the reviews you and your family give. I have this book and if you want your dressings thicker use soy milk. I find making them the day before and using soy milk makes them thicken up nicely. Keep up the fantastic work. I’m from Down Under 🇦🇺
ooohh snap! I am readyyyy! your faux gurt is now a staple in my home by the way:D I will try it to with a spoon of tahini added for exxxtra calcium. But only if it does not take away the good taste amd structure it already has
Sounds great! You could use other nut butters. And you can swap out the banana for other soft fruits too. This makes me so happy :) literally made that up one day out of desperation and I make it a few times a week too.
@pbwithjeremy 🙌 but isn't that the greatest ^^ it came naturally! it is such a clever recipe. Easy accessible..original and it really hits my yoghurt spot a bit and makes it easier to eat granola in a yoghurt way without having to buy plantbased (sometimes expensive) yoghurts which in our country does not have calcium added and and doesnt have so many nutrients as the faux gurt does. So happy to have another cool staple for breakfast!
Have you checked out "fully raw Kristina" in Hawaii? She is similar to Kiki and has her own huge garden her latest recipe was cucumber spirals with a delicious taziki dressing! Looked sooooo good! !!
Wow - you're not the first person to ask! My wife made it up on the spot, so next time we get around to a What I Eat video about our go-to meals I'll try to include it! Thanks for asking :)
on her vanilla berry pancakes ,I used spelt flour to make this morning for the first time after watching her video on her 3 recipes from the book and my family loved them but when you use oat flour things are always denser than when you use a flour and my batter felt to thick so I added a little more water. and walnut to the people who love nut also, thanks for your video, the recipe is missing the liquid part when you posted the recipe.
Hello from durham region - Another great video of a lovely (and entertaining) family! Suggestions: Dr. Fuhrman’a Eat to Live cookbook, the Engine2 Cookbook, Oh She Glows Cookbook and Lauren Toyota’s Vegan Comfort Classics cookbook PS. I’m trying the baked pancakes and tempeh sausage recipes from your website for dinner tonight 🎉
Thank you for this!!!! Lots of requests for those books already - so I'll get to them ASAP (I'm blessed with a LOT of recommendations from people). OHHH - let me know what you think of those after you make them!
@@KeaneOnHealth That's awesome! (and fair) - hot tip for the little ones - let the sausages mingle with the maple syrup from the pancakes a little - adds to the flavour for them (and you!) - thanks for letting me know!!!
Ooops - sorry about that! I've returned the book to the library so maybe someone else in the comments can help us out.... otherwise maybe consider borrowing the book from your library?
For the pudding, if you put a piece of plastic wrap on the surface of the pudding before you put it into the fridge, it won't get a skin on it, nor will it sweat/get condensation from the lid. That said, it looked odd, so I'm glad it tasted good.
Yeah - also the metal didn't help. I was following the directions assuming there was something different about it. Turns out not - she just didn't explain what needs to happen.
So I have subscribed to your channel! I love the real life of it. :) I will say that it seems your family is used to more "everyday" food flavors that you find on cooking shows, television and real life. I think there is a whole population of plant-based eaters (like Kiki) that focus more on health and therefore more simple tasting, lower fat foods taste much better. Once you change your taste buds to less salt, less sugar, no oil, the "hyper-palatable" foods are not so good anymore. (I can eat chickpea cookies and LOVE them, my husband cannot.) Thanks for all you content and for caring about the delicate condition of our planet. We need more families like yours!!
Thanks for subscribing and watching! My wife and I generally eat WFPB - which is not at all in line with "everyday" eating from most people in the world for sure. We don't use oil, use minimal salt and when it comes to sugars we use either maple syrup or dates - and we usually reduce whatever the recipe calls for by half. I firmly believe that healthy fats are part of a balanced diets, so nut butters, coconut milk, avocado, etc... are used in healthy portions. I lost 170 pounds eating this way, so it's achievable for weight loss to eat WFPB without skimping on flavour and still be very very healthy. Hope I'm not coming off as defending myself - just wanted to let you know how we are.
@@pbwithjeremy Not at all, Jeremy!! I am looking forward to watching more of your videos. I have Jane & Anne's cookbook and loved your recent review. I am a fan of many of the PB doctors and enjoy watching them agree and disagree about the best plant-based journey you can take for your health. I align best with Dr Fuhrman''s plan and eat a portion of healthy fats every day. Congrats to you for changing your life and getting your family onboard to eating these foods!! That is the best gift you can share together. Be well, sir, and I look forward to enjoying your channel content :)
This is the recipe that I use for my pancakes. That is Kiki's recipe. I follow it as written and it always turns out fluffy. Sometimes I put blueberries in them.
I really love your videos. I would love it if you would look at reviewing one or both of these books Plant-Based Delicious or The Plant-based Cookbook by Ashley Madden. Thank you.

LOVE the library. Cook books are expensive! So I like to get them from the library first to take them for a test run!
I love how you are trying different cookbooks. Based on your reviews I have bought two of them, thank you!!

I make the blueberry vanilla pancakes once a week. I'm addicted. I use oatmeal flour and water. But I let the batter sit 5 to 10 minutes.

Thanks for adding this information!
Ah dang about the chocolate pudding from this cookbook! Recently I tried Jill Dalton’s recipe from her Plant Based Cooking Show channel which had way less ingredients and just uses oats as the thickener and I really enjoyed it!
Partly my fault for not following my instincts.
Thanks for recommending adding a fat to the Chickpea Curry. I added 1/4 cup soaked raw cashews to the blender … yummy and creamy 😋
Yeah, it's fine without it, but a little healthy fat really brings the flavours together!
I love Kiki! I use this cookbook ALL the time. I make her ranch dressing and “ cheese” sauce on a regular basis. Her lentil stew is my all time fave. I could eat it everyday.
Did you use it to lose weight or just for recipes? I’m trying to figure out if it will help to lose weight following her recipes.
You cracked me up on this one! I will say - this was my first vegan cookbook so it really did help me to see ideas that were not necessarily a recipe! 😄
I'm glad. And yes - I think it's a solid beginner "idea" book.
I suggest The Vegan Chinese Kitchen by Hannah Che. I watched one of your videos and I am hooked! New subscriber! Your family is charming.
Adding it to my library to-read :)
Try THE VEGAN 8 cookbook next. So many really awesome recipes!!
On my list to try at some point!
what are some of your fav recipes from Vegan8? Her book is on my list but I have so many cookbooks already. Love her blog.
Ooh, would be great if you could try her cookbook for real! I don’t have her cookbook but one of my favourite recipes from her blog is her instant pot sweet potato chickpea curry 😋
Have you reviewed Plant Based Cooking Made Easy?
Old auntie tip: cornstarch and soy milk works better for that old fashioned type of pudding, and it does help to let it get to room temperature before putting in the fridge. If you don't want a "skin" to form, lay wax paper or plastic wrap directly on the pudding surface.
Love your cookbook reviews; saved me some money on this one!
My pleasure! Thank you Old Auntie Julie! ;-)
The instructions told me to put it in the fridge right away, and so I fought my inner instinct - which I shouldn't have. Also - using a metal bowl didn't help I don't think!
You guys love your chocolate! Any plant based deserts with more maple or butterscotch kinda flavors?
Jeremy, I love your cookbook reviews. As for the non recipe recipes, remember that not everyone knows what you know. I once taught a 30 something woman how to make ice at home. She thought you could only get ice in bags from the store. No one had ever told her.
Thanks for this. Can you give me an example from one of the videos where I could have been more helpful? I add in a lot of tips and tricks along the way - but curious what inspired this comment. Thanks!
I believe she’s referring to the critique concerning the berry bowl/granola “recipe” not being a recipe?
I have all books maybe your recipe don’t come out good because you don’t follow her recipe to the T
So you are not a good evaluator
Hi Jeremy, As a type 1.5 diabetic, I would probably make the Plantiful Kiki’s recipes because most seemed lower in fat. If I were to add almond butter or coconut milk from a can, although delicious, my blood sugar would shoot up to over 300! Your daughter was very funny in this video, parading back and forth behind you 😂
Appreciate that perspective - good for me to keep in mind! Thanks for that - glad you enjoyed Annie's antics :)
Have you tried Gaz Oakley's recipes? Hes the Avant Garde vegan and a professional chef.
LOVE his stuff - but haven't done a review of his books yet for the channel. I was thinking of doing his holiday one for later this year... thoughts?
I have this cookbook but haven’t tried any of the recipes yet. Disappointed that all the recipes you made were not winners. I love Kiki’s channel - her dishes look so yummy!
It happens. My kids are also harsh critics. I hope it came across that I thought it was good for someone starting out or losing weight.
He put a twist on the recipes and didn't follow them exactly. I feel it's not a good review since Kiki's book is to help with weight loss. And he's telling people to add almond butter for "more fat".
To clarify - I believe I mentioned why she had the recipe as she did - for people who were looking for weightloss, and was merely suggesting that if that wasn't someone's goal and they wanted to add more flavour, that was a way to do it.
That said - I appreciate the criticism - I believe that recipes for books to be made by home cooks aren't to be written in stone - they get modified by the person making it, but the idea stays in tact. If that's not your thing then I understand. Appreciate you checking out the video either way!
Just found your channel. Enjoyed watching. Love the idea of using library books. Will definitely be watching your other reviews! 😊
Awesome! Thank you! Library for the win!!!
Great video! Your kiddos are funny too!
Thanks so much!
Thanks Jeremy for another fun video. Love your family, they’re so honest. Your review basically agrees with reviews I’ve read about this book. It’s lovely but very basic for those of us that have been following this lifestyle for awhile. I enjoy Kiki’s videos, they’re beautifully done. She shares about her family, their life on their homestead, maintaining her weight loss, inner beauty, etc. I haven’t tried many of her recipes. I would enjoy seeing what your family thinks about some of the recipes in Dreena’s Kind Kitchen, by Dreena Burton. Have a great weekend!
Thank you for this! I've had lots of people request Dreena's book so it's on my list for sure - I'll get to it as some point - thank you! This is a good beginner book, but for my family it was just a bit too basic - still loaded with helpful stuff for people.
This is great! I am so grateful for y’all sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Wow I found this video and I love it! Will definitely subscribe. I love Kiki and I was wondering how the book was. You guys are awesome and real!
Thanks for subbing! Glad you enjoyed our review and found it helpful!
I am so glad I found your channel!!!! I binge watched about 8 videos yesterday!!! Cookbook suggestion...... plant you
Awesome!!!! I just did Plant You - you can watch it here: What I Eat in a Week: Plant You Cookbook Review | Plant-Based Vegan
th-cam.com/video/8Uag3rj5DYs/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching!!!!
Some suggested cookbooks to try would be PlantPure Comfort Food by Kim Campbell (or any of hers but that is her newest), The Clean Vegan Cookbook by Jackie Akerberg, or Simple Green Meals by Jen Hansard (is vegetarian so would have to adjust or make the vegan recipes but is wonderful).
I just picked up PlantPure from the library so look for that in the upcoming weeks and I've added the other two to the list. Thank you!!!!!
I have a book suggestion! Thug Kitchen - it is vegan and it’s actually fun to read the instructions because of the language and i think you’ll get a kick out of it.
I LOVE that series - I own them all. They've rebranded as Bad Manners - but I'll get to one of these books for sure. Should I do the original or the newest? (they have another one coming this fall)
@@pbwithjeremy I love your channel and your family! I would love for you to do any of them but I know thug kitchen best. That creamy peanut slaw is to die for 😋😋
@@chloedog73 Awww thank you! YES - that recipe is FIRE!!!!
I love this cookbook but I only stick to the same handful of recipes. I’m so glad you did this review. Thank you!
My pleasure! Which recipes are your go-tos???
@@pbwithjeremy the cheese sauce but I add alot of spices, chickpea chicken salad and her lentil sloppy joes ( I think that might be on her website)
thx!
It shld have been allowed to cool b4 putting in fridge & NO lid . That was the problem & have found this out from experience😊 . That eld have been delicious . I love that cookbook❤ . You are awesome Jeremy !
Yeah - I should have trusted my gut. Thank you!!!!
New to the channel. Would love to have you review something by Dr. Michael Greger - How Not To Die or How Not To Diet. Thanks
Literally shooting that video right now!! It’ll be up soon :) thanks for watching!!
Sadly Maple Syrup is wicked expensive here in New England.😢
Thanks for your honest review, Jeremy & Fam! Please tell your wife I'm just crazy about her 😃 I love her personality! Are we suppose to call her Emily or Wolly? Thanks for the video! 💕
Awwww - that made her smile. She goes by either - but I usually call her Woolie :) Thanks for this!
You are so hilarious! Especially, the "I'm sorry that's not a recipe thats just instructions for how to eat cereal." I laughed out loud and had to share this with others. I do really like Plantiful Kiki and her simple recipes since I'm not a great cook and prefer to keep it fairly simple or I won't make it. I have this cookbook and appreciate you making the recipes come to life. I prefer to see a recipe demonstrated before I make it myself. Caitlin Shoemaker "From My Bowl" has some great vegan "dump and bake" recipes (put it all in a casserole, stick in the oven, and done). Will check out your website too. I'm oil/vegan butter free so I may have to modify a little.
AWww - thanks! That recipe is already on my to-do list so happy to know you want it as well! I try to keep the recipes on my website simple as well and a lot of them have videos on the channel as well. Pretty much all of them are oil free! I don't use it except in a stirfry for flavour (sesame oil)
@@pbwithjeremy Good to know. Thanks!
@@pbwithjeremythat’s the only time I use oil too - just a bit of sesame oil in a marinade for tofu.
I have been thoroughly enjoying your videos. The longer you’ve done them, the better they’ve gotten. I’m plowing through them. I was wondering if you could possibly share any information on the chocolate covered quinoa that I’ve seen you use a few times. If it matters, I’m in the US. Thank you very much!
Thank you! Glad to hear we're continuing to improve!!!! the only place I've ever see the chocolate quinoa is our bulk store - but you can also get it here: amzn.to/46kt4IC
Just stumbled on your video because I follow Kiki on her channel. Great review. Love the honesty. Will probably borrow it from the library as well.
Would love a review of the fairly new “The Clean Vegan Cookbook” by Jackie Akerberg. Thanks in advance%
Welcome aboard! That other book is already on my list - so I'll get to it sometime in the future - I've been blessed with a LOT of requests lately - thanks so much for giving our channel a shot an glad you like it! We have a bunch of cookbook reviews here :)
I love Kiki's recipes! She has a TON on her website if you're wanting to try some out before buying the book. I have the book on my wishlist for now.
RE: Oat flour pancakes... yeah that's just how they are. I am wheat free (migraine trigger) so I don't have the option to use wheat and sub with oat flour a lot. It's nice because it's easy and cheap (just blend up some oats) but it's VERY dense and sits like a rock. I find flours with corn in them are tastier but significantly more expensive. Anything labeled "gluten free" is expensive just because of the label, it's so annoying! Like we get a brown rice pasta and it's almost 4x more expensive than whole wheat pasta. WTF?
RE: Her cheese sauce, I actually use only potatoes in mine. I like carrots, but I find that in the cheese sauce it makes it too... earthy? I also add more seasoning than she does but I think I make a larger bath over all. I also find a TBSP of hemp seeds is a good replacement for the cashews if you're trying to lower the fat/calories for weight loss.
Thanks for all this - try the gluten-free pancake mix I posted of my own in the description below - it might be the ticket for you!
Thanks for all your thoughts on this! Luckily where we live the brown rice pasta isn't too bad price wise.
This is the first video of yours I have watched and I really enjoyed it! I didn’t see the Asian slaw recipe on your website, can you please share it? It looks delicious.
Oh thanks! Honestly - my wife winged that and can't remember what she did - but if we do a family favorite video again I'll include it for sure!
You guys are FUN! Really enjoyed this video. So I have this cookbook and the very best recipe in it is Thai-inspired Noodle Salad. Try it! So dang delicious! I am addicted and make it probably 3 times a month. But seriously I could eat it practically every day.
Awww thank you!!! If I ever pick the book up again I’ll try it. We have some recipes of our own like that we use so I know why you must love it so much!!!!
Your son seems to be a natural in the kitchen, maybe when they have a break from school he could do a week of cooking lunch or dinner from one of the cookbooks.
Not sure he'd want to to do that, but I can certainly encourage him to lead a video :)
Thank you for this review. I was just going to ask you to cook from this book. I just bought it but haven’t had a chance to cook from it yet. 👏👏
You fished your wish!!! My pleasure!
Have both her books on kindle😊
Hi Jeremy, I have a suggestion for a cookbook for you to review with your family it is called Healthy Girl Kitchen Cookbook. I love that you review vegan cookbooks, it helps me decide if I should purchase the book. Thank you for your real and fun videos.
Hey Mary! Thanks for the suggestion. I've actually got that book on a waiting list from my library - so as soon as it comes in I'll be doing it - so look for it in the upcoming months!
And also it's a pleasure! Thanks for writing!!!
you need to use soy milk to her dressings to make them thicker, almond milk or other milks do not work as well :) Just a tip that I have learned from her dressings.
Thanks for the tip!
That is my favorite cookbook.
What are your favs from it?
That lava cake looks delicious. BTW, Beaker is my favorite muppet. 🧑🔬
Excellent choice of Muppet :)
I love your cookbook reviews 👍😍😎 and this channel ❤ Your Family is great 💞
What about "The blue Zone Cookbooks" ?
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪😇
Oh wow! I've only been to Germany as a stopover on a flight!
I've cooked from that book before but haven't done it as a video - will add it to the list. Thanks!!!
You should try one from gaz oakley ... he's an amazing chef ...and trust me your kids will love em
I've made his fish and chips for them - they loved it :)
My favorite breakfast in this book is the maple pecan sweet potato
Mmmmmm
I'm so glad that you reviewed this book. I'm late to this: I just discovered you guys (happily!). I had been considering buying Plantiflly Lean but had been worried that it would be a waste for me. I watch Kiki's videos (hoping that I, too, can lose 70lbs) but I don't need a book that tells me how and why to be vegan and I guessed that the recipes wouldn't be new to me. Thanks!
Hey Christine! Glad you're enjoying the channel! Sadly I agree with your sentiments about this book.
Hello from Ontario Canada. I always use recipes as a guide only and then I spice it all up my own way....sounds like you need to do that with this particular book as well. As you said...a nice entry level book.
Yup! Some people think you need to follow a recipe by the letter - that's not me. Glad you're the same. Where in Ontario are you???
@@pbwithjeremy Hello. We are in the Kawarthas. You?
Toronto! We were just in your area a few weeks ago for Family Camp :)
@@pbwithjeremy Nice!!! Very familiar with Toronto. We are originally from around that area.
Oh nice!
Hi! Have you reviewed Sweet Potato Soul's Cookbook?? It's one of my favorites!
Not yet - on the list!
I love kiki and we are excited to get her new cookbook. But also felt disappointed with the lack of actual recipes
Same. I get that her style is that she doesn't like to cook and keeps it simple, but then it feels like it's just a money grab for her followers. I know it's full of other interesting information about her journey and being plant-based - so perhaps if that's the way you're looking at it then it has tremendous value - but as a cookbook - not so much, IMO.
You should make a video of how you remedy fails. Like what did you do with the cookies? Maybe you could crumble it up, add maple syrup and then sprinkle it on some other dessert thing. So basically, what happens to to the food? I'm pretty sure you're not throwing it out, right?
Woolie literally shot something like this tonight :)
Jeremy, I'd love if you did a review/week of meals from Richa Hingle's book, "Vegan Richa's Instant Pot Cookbook"
Lots of demand for this one - it's on the list :)
I watch Kiki's channel a lot. Her recipes are simple because she says she doesn't like to cook. She started cooking to eat better and ultimately lose 70 pounds.
What did you use for sugar in the lava cake?
I probably used coconut sugar
Hi. Really glad I found your videos recently! Love you and your family. It's so fun to see you try recipes from cookbooks!!! I wish you'd make more savory meals but I know you're making the things your family will eat!❤ have you tried the Prevent and Reverse heart disease cookbook by Jane Esselstyn? They have a great oat burger recipe in there.
I'll add that book to my list! And thanks for all the kind words. I try to make a balance between sweet and savoury when I pick the recipes for the week/video - but sometimes we lean on the sweet side. Thanks for letting me know - I'll work on it in future videos :)
@@pbwithjeremy you don't have to do anything!! I was just being selfish cause I like savory stuff! You keep on doing you! I love your videos!
@@bonniedavis7498 Awwww - but I like to be helpful. :)
I find that arrowroot powder doesn’t thicken as well as corn starch. Could be the reason why the chocolate pudding didn’t set that well. Looks good though.
Yup - that's what I'd normally use, but wanted to follow the recipe. Thanks for the comment though for others to see!
The lack of vegetables in the recipes is understandable for the way she eats… she makes a 50/50 plate with half of the starchy recipe, and half fresh veg of her choice. So you might have an enchilada, and lots of steamed broccoli… I love many of her recipes! They’re simple, easy, and tasty!
Good point!
Great video - this is a very balanced review of Kiki's book. I ilike it but yes, some "recipes" are really not recipes. There are some great ideas for new vegans though.
I totally agree! Thanks for saying this :)
Always look forward to your video's and again this one did not disappoint!!! Annie creeping back and forth behind you, hilariously cute 😂❤
Haha - thank you! I'm going to keep her. She makes me laugh :)
Awe.... she is pretty cute and funny !!!
Crinkle crinkle..I laughed so hard. I love the banter. Very recognizable! Hey -I can't find where you posted the enchilada sauce recipe. I jotted down the ingredients on freeze frame- but don't know how much water to add.. It's been 6 months since you put up this video - what are the chances you still have it somewhere?? Stores don't carry this stuff over here in Belgium so I'd love your tried and true recipe find... please?🌮
If it's the recipe I think it is I believe it was 1 1/2 cups veggie broth... does that seem like too much?
I shall give it a try- prolly need to let it cook down a little 👍
Could you please do an fpies week. My son has been diagnosed and finding recipes or adapting them hasn't been easy. He can't eat protein so most grains and nuts and seeds and legumes are off limits. He can tolerate 1/4 cup corn Maza (apox every day's)and Ezekiel bread.
Sorry to hear abut your son's challenge - can you e-mail me at pbwithjeremy@gmail.com and give me a list of everything he can't eat!
Hi Jeremy, been watching your videos for a while now and love the reviews you and your family give. I have this book and if you want your dressings thicker use soy milk. I find making them the day before and using soy milk makes them thicken up nicely. Keep up the fantastic work. I’m from Down Under 🇦🇺
Thanks for the tip!!!
ooohh snap! I am readyyyy!
your faux gurt is now a staple in my home by the way:D I will try it to with a spoon of tahini added for exxxtra calcium. But only if it does not take away the good taste amd structure it already has
Sounds great! You could use other nut butters. And you can swap out the banana for other soft fruits too. This makes me so happy :) literally made that up one day out of desperation and I make it a few times a week too.
@pbwithjeremy 🙌 but isn't that the greatest ^^ it came naturally! it is such a clever recipe. Easy accessible..original and it really hits my yoghurt spot a bit and makes it easier to eat granola in a yoghurt way without having to buy plantbased (sometimes expensive) yoghurts which in our country does not have calcium added and and doesnt have so many nutrients as the faux gurt does. So happy to have another cool staple for breakfast!
Love that. Thanks for this. :) glad you’ve got something you can use!
That slaw next to the enchiladas looked AMAZING!
Thanks! We just kinda whipped that up at the last minute but next time I do a Family Favourites video I can try to include it!!!
@@pbwithjeremyI'm in the comments to find that slaw recipe! 😂
From Woolie?@@klaurvick4501
@pbwithjeremy yep! She said we'd love it so I was looking for the "how to"! 😊
Have you checked out "fully raw Kristina" in Hawaii? She is similar to Kiki and has her own huge garden her latest recipe was cucumber spirals with a delicious taziki dressing! Looked sooooo good! !!
I will check it out!!! Thanks for recommending!
I love Kristina's Channel! I just watched her mini "cheesecake" video. And her raw icing recipe... OMG!🤩😋
"Similar"? Kristina is raw.
Very helpful! Do u have a recipe for the asian slaw that was served with the enchiladas?
Wow - you're not the first person to ask! My wife made it up on the spot, so next time we get around to a What I Eat video about our go-to meals I'll try to include it! Thanks for asking :)
on her vanilla berry pancakes ,I used spelt flour to make this morning for the first time after watching her video on her 3 recipes from the book and my family loved them but when you use oat flour things are always denser than when you use a flour and my batter felt to thick so I added a little more water. and walnut to the people who love nut also, thanks for your video, the recipe is missing the liquid part when you posted the recipe.
Thanks for this info here. I made a mistake on the video there, but I think I added it to the description below.
This was great !
Thank you!
Hello from durham region - Another great video of a lovely (and entertaining) family!
Suggestions: Dr. Fuhrman’a Eat to Live cookbook, the Engine2 Cookbook, Oh She Glows Cookbook and Lauren Toyota’s Vegan Comfort Classics cookbook
PS. I’m trying the baked pancakes and tempeh sausage recipes from your website for dinner tonight 🎉
Thank you for this!!!! Lots of requests for those books already - so I'll get to them ASAP (I'm blessed with a LOT of recommendations from people).
OHHH - let me know what you think of those after you make them!
@@pbwithjeremy the baked pancakes were a hit with everyone! The tempeh sausage was enjoyed by the adults haha
@@KeaneOnHealth That's awesome! (and fair) - hot tip for the little ones - let the sausages mingle with the maple syrup from the pancakes a little - adds to the flavour for them (and you!) - thanks for letting me know!!!
@@pbwithjeremy thank you! Looking forward to the next video
Nice recipes. Love the comments after each meal.. Is red curry paste Vegan? Family is amazing 😁
Thank you! The red curry paste we buy is vegan. I don’t know about others but I assume so…. Always check the label
Ok. THANK YOU.
New sub! I loved your channel keep it up
Thanks for subbing!
came across your vid and love it! I'm a new vegan and always enjoy the vegan vids I review here that are very helpful to me. I'll subscribe - thanks!
Awesome - thank you! I've got a bunch of other reviews on the channel!
On the south west dressing, you posted the salad ingredients not the dressing ingredients. What’s in the dressing that everyone loved?
Ooops - sorry about that! I've returned the book to the library so maybe someone else in the comments can help us out.... otherwise maybe consider borrowing the book from your library?
For the pudding, if you put a piece of plastic wrap on the surface of the pudding before you put it into the fridge, it won't get a skin on it, nor will it sweat/get condensation from the lid. That said, it looked odd, so I'm glad it tasted good.
Yeah - also the metal didn't help. I was following the directions assuming there was something different about it. Turns out not - she just didn't explain what needs to happen.
So I have subscribed to your channel! I love the real life of it. :) I will say that it seems your family is used to more "everyday" food flavors that you find on cooking shows, television and real life. I think there is a whole population of plant-based eaters (like Kiki) that focus more on health and therefore more simple tasting, lower fat foods taste much better. Once you change your taste buds to less salt, less sugar, no oil, the "hyper-palatable" foods are not so good anymore. (I can eat chickpea cookies and LOVE them, my husband cannot.) Thanks for all you content and for caring about the delicate condition of our planet. We need more families like yours!!
Thanks for subscribing and watching! My wife and I generally eat WFPB - which is not at all in line with "everyday" eating from most people in the world for sure. We don't use oil, use minimal salt and when it comes to sugars we use either maple syrup or dates - and we usually reduce whatever the recipe calls for by half. I firmly believe that healthy fats are part of a balanced diets, so nut butters, coconut milk, avocado, etc... are used in healthy portions. I lost 170 pounds eating this way, so it's achievable for weight loss to eat WFPB without skimping on flavour and still be very very healthy.
Hope I'm not coming off as defending myself - just wanted to let you know how we are.
@@pbwithjeremy Not at all, Jeremy!! I am looking forward to watching more of your videos. I have Jane & Anne's cookbook and loved your recent review. I am a fan of many of the PB doctors and enjoy watching them agree and disagree about the best plant-based journey you can take for your health. I align best with Dr Fuhrman''s plan and eat a portion of healthy fats every day. Congrats to you for changing your life and getting your family onboard to eating these foods!! That is the best gift you can share together. Be well, sir, and I look forward to enjoying your channel content :)
I cant believe im just now finding your channel ❤
I'm just as shocked as you are! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!?!?! We missed you :(
This is the recipe that I use for my pancakes. That is Kiki's recipe. I follow it as written and it always turns out fluffy. Sometimes I put blueberries in them.
Thanks for sharing!!
The southwest dressing looked like it thickened by the time you used it. Did it?
A little bit, but it was perfect for what we were using it for!
This cookbook seems like a children’s cookbook that I had. The recipes in it were assembled.
Yeah - for sure in some places it feels like that.
I really love your videos. I would love it if you would look at reviewing one or both of these books Plant-Based Delicious or The Plant-based Cookbook by Ashley Madden. Thank you.
Thank you!! I LITERALLY just walked to the library and snagged Plant-Based Delicious so look out for that video in the upcoming weeks!
@@pbwithjeremy Awesome!!!
I’d like to see you do the recipes from Chef AJ’s book Unprocessed.
Great suggestion! Adding it to the list!
that lava cake looks amazing
It's CRAZY good. It's now my go-to mug cake
