I hate how tofu is seen as a meat replacement. It's its own damn thing, and when cooked properly, is fking delicious with great texture.
Parker Dinh-Williams agreed
Parker Dinh-Williams I agree. In some Korean dishes it stands alone and is so delicious without missing meat
Amen
Yeah, I think it's really annoying that people shy away from tofu cuz they see it just as a meat replacement even though it's its own damn thing.
These folks have never had fried tofu. Delicious! I'm too lazy to cook it at home, but I'd choose fried tofu over meat any day of the week.
She looks like a girl version of Ned from the Try Guys and I can’t unsee it
It's the nose and the eyes!
😂😂😂 true
Emily S. She looks like a brunette Molly Baz from Bon Appetite
Oh my yeah
omg why did I have to read this
this is like the rich people equivalent to microwave ready meals
finnajungwoke literally makes 0 sense
Noodle Stream and then they put it in the microwave, that was the point, it’s rich people microwave ready meal
@@thecookingnerd8384 It makes a lot of sense, and it's funny.
I'd rather pay someone to meal prep than eat out everyday. I am a health-conscious introvert
@@lepetitchat123 Those are not your only choices. You also have the option of preparing your own healthy food, at about 5% of the cost of a personal chef.
Erica should have her own channel, she is awesome!.
She should have her own Channel! I could be wrong but Goodful probably has a policy about her posting her own youtube cooking content while she's doing videos for them :(
@@ge2339 or a contract
Couldn't agree more 🤩
Hi! It's me, Erica :) I just started my own channel a couple weeks ago! Hope you'll come hang out with me there! th-cam.com/channels/52iiqsiv2vBvfn20_pawFQ.html
@@fresherica4402 Yay, nice! So inspiring to watch your videos.
Helps me mealprep myself. Make a lot of South indian food. Sambhar, fish curry etc.
Why is tofu called meat replacement 💀 it's his own thing like paneer and hella tasty
paneer >>>>
@@swaginn7173 Indian cottage cheese.
Albert Einstein no ❤️ have you even tried it?
jiggly puff day you have never tried paneer in a well cooked way
Correct.
I'm vegan and I would love to do what you do. People would probably be a lot more open to trying plant based meals if you're cooking everything for them lol
❣️ Would love this job too
Would volunteer for this for sure!! 🙌💗💗🌱
If someone else is cooking and it tastes good....damn, I'm a sucker.
Someone could probably poison me and I'd accept it if it tasted good.
The Sacred Ointment geez 😂 being vegan here in Peru 🇵🇪 is pretty easy and cheap (apart from the B12 supplementation) 💗
nice, I'm a daily meat eater.
me: knows that GF stands for gluten free
also me: GirLfRiEnd NoOdleS
"CErtIfieD GirLfRiEnd" ;)
That's a smart outlook. I eat lots of meat but have nothing against all veggie meals, and enticing me with a well cooked vegetable based dinner is going to be more appealing to me then trying to feed me fake meat. Heck one of my favorite meals is vegetable fajitas.
BumpOnALog omg 😱 vegan 🌱 tastebuds here 😂✌️
This is me. I strongly enjoy my meat, but I've had my fair share of vegetarian meals. There are good recipes for both.
You should try going vegan...won't you join us?
@@Hannah-io9jb I like meat but I went vegetarian and I don’t miss it
I love these episodes of her meal prepping. Would love more in the future. Was so excited to another on my feed. Thanks!
I love watching these meal prep videos. Erica should deff do her own channel!
Thin sliced deep fried tempeh is the best. Many recipes from Indonesia that makes tempe and tofu taste soo good. I’m not a vegetarian but loves tempe and tofu
I eat meat but I love meat substitutes! I think it helps that I have to go vegetarian at most restaurants (I eat halal) so it's opened up my palate to things I wouldn't have thought to try otherwise at home (tofu, butternut squash, etc). I recommend trying to challenge yourself and try a vegetarian dish when eating out - you'll never know what you like!
Wow, that’s the same for me! Recently I’ve been exploring tofu and just got some soyrizo today, as well as impossible ground “beef”. This new world is so easy to prepare because I don’t have to wait to meat to thaw and it’s halal, so I can get protein from regular grocery stores as opposed to needing to go to a halal meat store. Even my husband (omnivore) gets excited about tofu. 😄
My friend does something similar with eating Kosher! He tends to go to a lot of vegetarian and vegan restaurants
Read the title and ponder a little. She definitely made it in her career.
thank you!! I’ve been vegetarian for almost four year and I still prefer not to eat meat substitutes!
Finally a vegetarian video instead of an all the way vegan one. I'm an omnivore but am trying to put more veggies in my meals and as of eight now am not buying much meat due to expenses. This was an awesome video with amazing tips! ☺️
I’d love to see a vegan one of these!
Yes pls
Yes
Abbey g anti nutrients and phytoestrogens? No thanks
@@LS-cr1ll I love how anti-vegans always have their facts perfectly wrong while they are enjoying their sad life of trolling.
Earthling Eds Farts riiiiiiiiiiggt because eating animal carcass riddled with the animals hormones is better.
I sooooo needed this! Thank you so much for doing this :)
It's just so nice watching u do this meal prep :) Food looks great and you're so organized!
Imagine being so rich, you hire a food prepper
Honestly, they're are some that are very affordable.I'm not rich. I'm a family of 3 & we make as low as $36,000 a yr sometimes & when there is a democratic president, our income is over $75,000. This yr is our lowest income. I was able to afford someone to prep my lunches for work. I paid $30 a wk. More than it would be if I made it myself, but I always forget my food in the fridge. The guy who made my lunches brought them to my job so I could stick them in the fridge. I ate my lunches most the time as left over dinner at home. Prior to that, I was spending $50 to $70 a wk for lunch if I ate at work. If I didn't eat, I still had left overs at work for when I didn't have a lunch prepper.
In my country it's so common to hire a "cook" all these meal prepper fancy terms are pointless
@@Wildheartbeats which country?
How much does it cost?
What's the average income in that country?
@@anna.m8 It's India and average income in my country may range from meagre to millions as we have quite a few world's richest millionaires. The point being, we have a rich culture of making and eating only freshly prepared meals because food should be always consumed fresh. Each household be it a beggar's or a rich person's they prepare each meal separately since they don't eat in dinner whatever is cooked in Lunch. And dinner are usually freshly made. We never had concepts of meal preparation or cooking in bulk or cooking for 2 3 times. It's always for that particular meal. Now a days since a lot of people are working in corporates, busy and stupidly following western culture, they prepare few things in advance and keep.
Hiring cooks or maids who cook for families is a routine here. It depends upon what they agree to. We have a culture of having cooks prepare food for kings & queen's and so many keep someone to cook for themselves each day and unlike this so called meal prepper in the above video, they come to your home daily and make fresh food. That's what is called as food and eating fresh and healthy. Whatever is eaten otherwise is stale.
Still, it sounds like only well off people can afford to hire a cook/maid etc?
This is pretty much me and my hubby's situation. I was surprised at how close the recipes were to what I make. Yay!
I really appreciate the tips you offer while making the food. I think that is one of the hardest things for me to learn as a newer cook
More of Erika! We love her
I never think tofu and tempe as a meat replacement. They are diffrent, and taste diffrent. Tofu and tempe have their own charms, and i love it as much i love meat.
But maybe we just have diffrent culture.
Yay Ericas back!!
Thanks for sharing one more meal prep video.
How does Erica keep track of what ingredients are at each house? There will certainly be leftover spices, soy sauce, vinegar, olive oil and salt from today's meal prep!
As a personal chef, once I confirm my clients menu for the week and write my shopping list, I email them a pantry check list for the items I will need. You actually start to memorize what is in your clients pantry very well. It is a great brain workout & great for strengthening your memory, but I do double check with my clients.
Love these meal prep videos
Go ERICA... It's your Birthday 😂😂😂
Amazing job 👍
This series is great. More please
Love these meals I make a sweet potato chili on a fairly regular basis. We eat vegetarian usually once a week or so we find doing Indian flavours is great for vegetarian food
Loving this series :)
Now I realize how's call what I been doing at home! The only difference is that I freeze the food in order to last longer for us
One day I will have Erica meal prep for me!! 🥰
You are the BEST !!! I love your food. Thanks
this is the content i come to youtube for
I loveeeee her videos!
Erica great video & substance too. Been veggie since a young age and believe that really great vegetarian food is amazing without meat. The food should be just so good that the meat-eater says wow, i don't even miss the meat.
All your food looks amazing
Can you do a vegan one please!
Um Angelique works at Buzzfeed and Goodful is a Buzzfeed spin-off channel so I'm pretty sure the "clients" are just buzzfeed employees.
Yeah because if she works at buzzfeed she *definitely* can't be a personal chef once a week for a few hours on her day off or spare time. Noooo. That's impossible.
I'm trying to incorporate more vegetarian meals into my diet so thanks
Omg! My name's Angelique!
Love the video btw
The baked ziti looks so good
I'm a meat-eater and I can't understand the "for a meat lover" thing... I eat vegetables, i like them and of course they're different
@Harley Rollins 😂 you're 100% right
This girl is great!
You can use blended cashews as a substitute for ricotta.
Hi can you please start posting recipes also 🙏 because food always look so delicious!!!!
Husband: Oh wow so much food in our usually empty fridge!
Can you link the recipes you use?
I want to cook all this!!! 😋
Hey Erica, curious as to why you choose to meal prep at your client's home vs your own space? Do you rely on what they have for spices etc or do you bring everything including pots and pans? I would be stressed trying to remember where everything goes when cleaning up! Thanks!
Some people feel better when prepped at the homes for hygiene reasons
Fresh in the refrigerator? How many days?
One of my friends brought me some vegan chilli. It was so delicious that I ate the whole thing and didn't realize that it was vegan until she told me.
Hello Erica I stumbled across your video and I thought it was great. I live in Michigan and I am interested in starting a meal prep business. Can you give me some pointers?
What do you consider a okay amount of time/prep the people eating to have to perform?
The trick with eating meat replacements is to not think of it as a replacement, that thing you are eating is not meat and it never will be, and that is completely okay, and is okay to find things that mimic texture or flavor, but if you are looking for meat eat meat
Where are you girl? I need you to help me out. Can you share weekly menu every Friday with recipes to make life easy please ? 😋😋😋
Awesome😀
Where do you get the containers?
As a mother with toddlers I see saucepan handles sticking out, oven indoors open too long. Trying to do all this with a child hanging on your leg would be impossible or hair pulling. It would be awesome to have someone doing it for you or at least someone to watch the kids.
i find that they actually prefer meat substitutes over veggies (for meat lovers going vegetarian vegan or just plant based)
How do I go about finding a professional meal prep or in my area?
Love it!
Sweet potato and black bean chili? Noice
Love these kind of videos!
I am an omnivore/meat-eater but occasionally will have vegetarian meals here and there. But at least for me, Tempeh is one of my favorite after beans, like it's the easiest (and cuz I am not a big fan of Tofu) but recently found pastas too
Coincidentally, currently I am going vegan for 2 weeks for personal reasons - I didn't have meal preps cuz I have no time and space to do it in my dorm, so it was rather challenging especially with no eggs, milk or cheese 😓
I feel like on these days she is probably so exhausted from cooking all this amazing food for other people she will go home and just zap some ramen for herself
I would love to know whether this is more or less expensive than buying a take out daily..
I am a chef,and I would like to be a personal chef too! How do I do that?
Google it, that's how I found step by step guides to get into the business of being a personal chef!
One of the things I struggle with when bulk cooking is how to safely cool food down quickly (i.e. not allow it to sit in the “unsafe” temperature range too long).
I’m cooking for one (my husband), and like to have pre-portioned cooked meals in the freezer for when I’m not well enough to cook.
But when I cook a large amount of food, I struggle to get it to cool down enough to go into the fridge in a timely manner. Where we live it’s really hot most of the year.
Obviously I can’t just take hot food out of the oven and put it into the fridge (it would bring the internal temp of fridge up and make other foods unsafe to eat). But I also can’t just leave it hanging out on the bench for hours until it’s cooled down.
I put it in individual containers and stir frequently to help it cool, but it’s still a challenge. Any tips?
Some people spread it onto baking sheets in a thin layer. You could try freezing the sheet pan but I'm not sure it would make a huge difference.
I like the baking sheet idea... if u are making something liquify like soup or stews, if u have 2 large metal bowls or pots, one bigger than another - u can put ice water in the bigger one and the food in the smaller one. Then stir every once in awhile so the food that is hot in the center moves out to the edge and gets cooled by the cool metal. It takes me only 30 min or so to cool a gallon of soup this way, and is easy as long as u have a fridge that has an ice dispenser.
I need more of these. I'm eating vegan half of the week and meat the other half (no beef). But it is extremely difficult to find recipes the family will all enjoy on the vegan days.
Dolly Perry try YT channels pick up limes and liv B they have great, easy recipes
Anything with some protein (legumes) and good vitamin a (carrots, sweet potato 🍠, butternut squash, etc) source!!! Also some moar greens 🥬 for that health 🌱💗😂✌️ #govegan
Fried tofu like the ones they have in laksa .. I’m a meat eater and trust me in a soup base and the fried tofu sucks up the broth and whammmm flavour city
Americans - do you have Cadbury’s buttons sold in shops?? I noticed them in the fridge. Thought they were only sold here in the UK.
You can get anything from the internet, but yes some stores have them. I usually bring like 10 boxes though when I’m at Heathrow.
m s thanks!
Not sure about the States but you can get them in Canada! We tend to have a mix of UK and US candy though
In specialty shops and online, yes.
You can get them in any grocery store in Malaysia too
I am a proud meat eater of many years, but I have found that I am not liking the taste of it anymore. I don't know why. I am thinking of going to a plant-based diet just to see if I like my meals again. Hopefully, this is true!!
Make indian Veg food. They will love it
How much does this cost, approximately?
You can contact her, her IG account is in the description.
Who does the groceries?:) just wondering
I real 💘 the Vegertarian.
Does anyone know what did she put on the pasta?
mozzarella
cccuuu... nvM!
Hope u enjoy ur pasta too XD!
ziti, ricotta, milk, cremini/baby bella/swiss brown mushrooms, peas, white beans, spinach, topped with mozz cheese and basil
How much do you charge your client?
Perspective is key--you don't hafta be rich to buy a few home-made meals on occasion. Take the money out of your grocery budget, as those are groceries you ain't buying!!
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO BLOOMS THEIR SPICES INSTEAD OF CHUCKING IT INTO BOILING LIQUID OMG
just for that alone, i would trust her with any food
..And that’ll be $500😂😭
I really like her. ❤️
Plant base, vegetarian, vegan , gluten & soy free prep meal would be great
Gorgette Adelaide I’m a plant based chef in New York but now a days Omni families are quite common so you never know what you will have to make based on people’s preference
NUPUR ARORA what is Omni families?
I like how she says don’t introduce vegan protein for a meat eater it turn into disaster
Does Erica give her meal prep recipes away?
wow i’ve never met another person with my name
how ericka’s videos for this channel
Hebrew National Beef links. Love them!
Everyone says tomatoes in a can or bad for u bc of the acid or something like that.
cheese isn't bad for lactose intolerant people. the lactose disappears during the cheese making process
Anyone know how much she charges for all this?
Okay but did she just through out multiple layers of her onion? Like there was a crunch no?
I *wish* my bf was more open to vegetarian foods, but he'll only eat meat replacements. I'm trying to be healthy, not replace junk food with more junk food :/
hi
How much do you charge
I prefer veggie meals to meat meals, but the soba salad looks very unsatisfying😢😑
If your a meat lover hopefully that means you just appreciate high quality food so will enjoy well made veggie food
How do you get the recipes for these?
These meals look great but I wouldn't call pasta a protein
I thought she said she added beans to the pasta...
Where is my vegetarians at
