OMG... I want to come to Portland just to go to her truck! I want everything she gave you. I don't like tofu but I would love to try hers. I love this episode, you 2 looked like you had fun making this video. I really enjoy your channel keep up the good work.
UPDATE!!! NEW LOCATION FOR ERICA'S FOOD TRUCK IS 7339 NE Martin Luther King Blvd, Portland, OR 97211 Also don't forget to try nutritional yeast for your own vegan mac & cheeze at countrylifefoods.com/products/nutritional-yeast-flakes?ref=lj3yffc6ps&variant=39401102966968
She's on SE 12th right by the Workers Tap now! Erica's cart is a huge hit with everyone I know!! She shares the big patio with them. Well deserved amount of space for amazing food!
Thank you for highlighting Erica. I am planning my vacation to travel to several cities that have a plethora of Vegan restaurants. This year makes 31 years Vegan for me! I am a Vegan Chef also, but I enjoy eating REAL Vegan food in other cities. I am intentionally planning to visit Erica as soon as next month. I will be sure to come back and share my experience. I can not wait! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Majani's and Soul Vege are my two favorite vegan spots in Chicago. We don't have to compromise flavor or satisfaction. Support your local vegetarian restaurants even if you prepare most meals at home. I promise you. When my daughter visits me from Atlanta, those are her 2 go to spots!
I absolutely loved! This episode thank you for sharing this video I love she made the food and tried it all with you! Ha I want one of everything myself ☺️
Thank you!!! So happy you have enjoyed!! I was so happy she tried it with me too! That rarely happens but it's way more fun when people eat with me. Have you been enjoying the other videos from the series?
OMG! I would love the recipe for Erica blackeye pea with pickled peppers! I'm here drooling at the sight of you two eating! Thanks so much for broadening the vegan options available around the country! Go Erica! I love your creativity and creations of delicious plant-based soul food!
That's all I do when I cook for my family....put LOVE in it! That is the most precious ingredient and people feel it and taste it! I love her ambition and character! I know her food is awesome without even tasting it 😋 wonderful job girl!! Keep doing what makes you happy because it makes everyone you meet happy ❤️ congratulations 👏🏽
You are an EXCELLENT interviewer. So engaging and you really listen. Many times when I'm watching an interview, there will be things said that I'd love to hear more about but often times it goes over the interviewers head. I was so happy when you asked her...why would the convenient store owner offer her to put a food cart at his store on the whim. That is something I was curious about after she said it. LOVE your energy as well as Erica's. I hope I get to taste her food one day!!! You reaction alone sold me. Many blessings!!!
M¥ 👄 is watering & I'm a meat LOVER.... OWNING A FOOD TRUCK IS ON MY LONG~TERM G⚽ AL$$$$$$ LIST❗❗❗ THANKS F☀️R SHARING & SPARKING MY CURIOSITY😁❗ Detr💜it 👊
When I move to USA I really wanna try this place ❤❤❤ Thanks a lot for all your amazing recommendations. You make me feel so hopeful and comfortable about moving to USA
Erica's food is the bomb but heads up, she's no longer on 82nd Avenue.. she moved to Russell just off MLK Blvd. Hopefully she's less stressed out there.
Yup she move one week before we published the video which is why we don't call out where she previously was but I'm hoping she's having more fun at her new spot too!!
Wow, everything looks delicious and she has an awesome personality 👏🏾🤗 I'd love to try her food and become a regular customer If I weren't all the way in Ohio
Thank you so much for your support !! It does take time to adjusting to eating tofu and mushrooms ! But trust me once you find your favorite ways to prepare it there’s no looking back! 😍.
I will definitely will be checking her food out? I tried some vegan food but the taste was lacking since she's from my homestate? I'll give her a try. Great Video❤
They are so pretty and down to earth with a healthy appetite.. it looks like they can literally eat whatever they WANT and still look great.. now I WANT TO BE VEGAN lol.. how do you stay soo fit!? Is it really the diet change?
I'm so inspired by her and her story. However, I checked her website and she serves mostly meat now, but she has a few vegan choices. I just thought that was kinda strange.
This all looks amazing! But not exactly healthy... pretty sure my stomach would rebel after all that rich, fried food. No matter that it's vegan or not.
Whoa! Her food looks so good! About 10 yrs ago I went to a vegan restaurant near Howard University close to my home in Washington, DC. mac & cheese, vegan chicken salad I believe, collard greens and it was good. Well, I don't know what it is, form of soy by product? But I got sick with lots of phlegm in my chest, build up of saliva in my mouth, burping every few seconds with pain in my upper chest area and all ends with nausea, throwing up. Only thing I can think is the issue is some type of soy by product because I was using soy milk enable to eat cereal for several years. Then started feeling slightly sick on my stomach 🤢 Then I switched to almond milk with no issue. Then once in a while, would get the same sickness from store bought foods, like the Banquet spaghetti & meat balls , frozen eggs rolls and few other items I had eaten in the past. Most foods have some type of soy and I they don't bother me. I use soy sauce on top of that. So, I don't know. 😕
I’m conflicted bc tofu unless it’s homemade is bad for you. They make the plastics you claim emasculates males out of the same soybeans that tofu is made from. I think in Japan homemade tofu is not always made from soybeans. There’s other legumes to make tofu from which are less harmful.
My jaw dropped when she said she worked in the restaurant business for 19 or 20 years. She looks like she's 26.
She looks very young.
OMG... I want to come to Portland just to go to her truck! I want everything she gave you. I don't like tofu but I would love to try hers. I love this episode, you 2 looked like you had fun making this video. I really enjoy your channel keep up the good work.

Dam I want to eat everything there
This all looks amazing! But not exactly healthy... pretty sure my stomach would rebel after all that rich, fried food. No matter that it's vegan or not.
I just left portland for the week I ate at every vegan place I could and somehow didn't even know about this
ohh noo well you just gotta go back now!
I would love to try this cause meat is so tuff even chicken
You can get boiled peanuts from Walmart in a can
I love your videos
Thank you so much for your support!! What do you like most about them so I can ensure to keep including it in my videos
It's not like eating a crawfish at all fam bam!
As a Georgia Boy, This feels like Hella Representation. If god is real, the Soul Food Queen is doing their work.
It's making me miss home.
yes! she does an amazing job as seasoning them! :D Hope you get to try it sometime!

Overdose of wheat gluten maybe? Seitan? Xanthan gum reaction?
Can you drive to North Carolina because we need you. I could smell your vegan wings thru the phone 🤤
😂😂😂😂 right?? She needs a truck at more places !
Bring your food truck to DC!!
I am from Georgia and I want to travel to Portland to go and eat from her truck 😊
