All right, let's get. 00:04:26.76\00:04:28.40 And my motto is simple, nutritious and delicious. 00:04:28.43\00:04:32.07 Why is it that? 00:04:32.10\00:04:33.44 Well, you know, I think these three things 00:04:33.47\00:04:34.80 are so important when we're talking about 00:04:34.84\00:04:36.60 changing our diet into a healthier choices. 00:04:36.64\00:04:38.61 Yes. 00:04:38.64\00:04:39.97 Simple because we want simple ingredients, 00:04:40.01\00:04:41.48 and simply made. 00:04:41.51\00:04:43.08 The second thing is going to be nutritious 00:04:43.11\00:04:45.45 because I think that's the crux of the matter. 00:04:45.48\00:04:46.92 Let's put that right in the middle. 00:04:46.95\00:04:48.28 And then delicious 00:04:48.32\00:04:49.65 because if things don't taste good, Angie, 00:04:49.68\00:04:51.02 nobody's gonna eat them. 00:04:51.05\00:04:52.39 No one, even children. That's right. 00:04:52.42\00:04:53.76 You know. Exactly. 00:04:53.79\00:04:55.12 So, let's make a simple, 00:04:55.16\00:04:56.49 nutritious and delicious waffle. 00:04:56.52\00:04:57.86 So, we're gonna start and then the simple part, 00:04:57.89\00:04:59.33 my recipes are all very simple. 00:04:59.36\00:05:01.70 Everything's going in the blender. 00:05:01.73\00:05:03.10 That's the best thing. 00:05:03.13\00:05:04.47 These days, people want things quickly 00:05:04.50\00:05:06.23 'cause time is of the essence. 00:05:06.27\00:05:07.64 And you know what I love about this recipe, 00:05:07.67\00:05:09.00 I'm just making sure these oats don't come 00:05:09.04\00:05:10.71 all the way out here. 00:05:10.74\00:05:12.07 But I like this recipe 00:05:12.11\00:05:14.34 because you can do it ahead of time 00:05:14.38\00:05:15.91 and freeze these waffles. 00:05:15.94\00:05:17.28 I do a double batch and I freeze them. 00:05:17.31\00:05:19.61 Oh, you freeze them. 00:05:19.65\00:05:20.98 Absolutely, and then you know the best thing to do 00:05:21.02\00:05:22.68 is if you especially like on a morning 00:05:22.72\00:05:24.59 where you're in a rush, 00:05:24.62\00:05:25.95 just take them out the night before 00:05:25.99\00:05:27.32 and let them defrost in the refrigerator. 00:05:27.36\00:05:29.36 And then you could just stick or turn on the oven 00:05:29.39\00:05:31.06 I stick them in, do what I'm doing, 00:05:31.09\00:05:32.59 pull them out crispy, delicious waffles. 00:05:32.63\00:05:34.36 Wow, I love that. 00:05:34.40\00:05:36.03 Now what is this you're putting? 00:05:36.06\00:05:37.40 This is, these are corn grits. 00:05:37.43\00:05:38.97 However, you could use cornmeal if you wanted to. 00:05:39.00\00:05:40.90 But I'm using some just yellow corn grits. 00:05:40.94\00:05:42.90 You could use white, whatever you have, 00:05:42.94\00:05:44.91 you know, but I think this is corn flavor 00:05:44.94\00:05:46.98 just really and it's not a strong flavor, 00:05:47.01\00:05:48.34 but it really blend. 00:05:48.38\00:05:49.71 Is it gritty? Not at all. 00:05:49.74\00:05:51.18 It's not going to be a gritty. 00:05:51.21\00:05:52.88 They are grits, but they're not, 00:05:52.91\00:05:54.25 they're not gritty in here 00:05:54.28\00:05:55.62 because we're gonna blend it up. 00:05:55.65\00:05:56.99 So let me get these out of the way. 00:05:57.02\00:05:58.35 Okay, I've got some honey here. 00:05:58.39\00:05:59.72 But you can use any, I mean, 00:05:59.75\00:06:01.19 you can use any sweetener you want. 00:06:01.22\00:06:04.39 Some people prefer to even use dates, 00:06:04.43\00:06:06.06 which are even letting you know, 00:06:06.09\00:06:07.43 obviously not processed. 00:06:07.46\00:06:08.86 If you're going to use dates though I would tell you to, 00:06:08.90\00:06:10.60 to kind of soften them in some warm water first 00:06:10.63\00:06:13.84 and make sure they're pitted. 00:06:13.87\00:06:15.20 That's another thing too. So, we've got our honey here. 00:06:15.24\00:06:17.51 Got the honey. A little bit of olive oil. 00:06:17.54\00:06:19.74 Now if you're oil free, you can actually use 00:06:19.77\00:06:22.61 just like a quarter cup of nuts. 00:06:22.64\00:06:24.61 That would be worked perfectly as well. 00:06:24.65\00:06:26.25 Sure. I didn't know that. 00:06:26.28\00:06:27.62 That's great. A little bit of salt. 00:06:27.65\00:06:29.38 Pink salt. You have Himalaya salt. 00:06:29.42\00:06:30.95 What's the difference between the pink Himalaya and regular? 00:06:30.99\00:06:33.76 Well, you know what there's, there's really actually kind of 00:06:33.79\00:06:35.56 like three major kinds of salts. 00:06:35.59\00:06:37.49 There's the pink Himalayan, there's the sea salt, 00:06:37.53\00:06:40.00 which many people use, 00:06:40.03\00:06:41.36 and then of course iodized table salt. 00:06:41.40\00:06:43.03 So, the difference is I'm just saying, 00:06:43.06\00:06:45.00 this is the maple flavoring and the baking powder. 00:06:45.03\00:06:47.40 So, the difference between those salts, 00:06:47.44\00:06:48.87 I actually used Himalayan pink salt 00:06:48.90\00:06:50.67 pretty much exclusively in my cooking, 00:06:50.71\00:06:53.61 because it has 84 trace minerals in it. 00:06:53.64\00:06:55.78 Not only does it have 84 trace minerals, 00:06:55.81\00:06:57.95 but it also has, you know, 00:06:57.98\00:07:01.38 it's mined about 5000 feet below sea level. 00:07:01.42\00:07:04.09 So, it's about 99.9% pure. Wow. 00:07:04.12\00:07:06.76 So, it's really, you know, I like it for cooking. 00:07:06.79\00:07:09.79 You just want to make sure that that you get enough iodine, 00:07:09.82\00:07:12.46 thank you, enough iodine in your diet. 00:07:12.49\00:07:15.10 Because you see it's not iodized. 00:07:15.13\00:07:17.00 It's really just, it's got all those 00:07:17.03\00:07:18.47 and it has traces amount of, and trace minerals means 00:07:18.50\00:07:21.54 that we just need them in our bodies in small amounts. 00:07:21.57\00:07:23.71 But iodine is important for thyroid health. 00:07:23.74\00:07:25.21 So, we want to make sure. 00:07:25.24\00:07:26.57 Oh, thyroid health, that's what I need. 00:07:26.61\00:07:28.58 So, iodine, make sure that 00:07:28.61\00:07:29.94 you're getting enough iodine to regulate your thyroid. 00:07:29.98\00:07:31.51 All right. 00:07:31.55\00:07:32.88 So, we're gonna move over to the blender here. 00:07:32.91\00:07:34.25 Come on. Let's switch places. 00:07:34.28\00:07:36.99 All right. 00:07:37.02\00:07:40.92 Okay, everything looks good, ready to go in. 00:07:40.96\00:07:44.33 I want to move this because it's gonna... 00:07:44.36\00:07:46.16 There we go. Now, can we use any blender? 00:07:46.19\00:07:48.03 Well, you know what, I like to use in the kitchen 00:07:48.06\00:07:49.43 a high-speed blender. 00:07:49.46\00:07:50.80 I find that when we're doing recipes, 00:07:50.83\00:07:52.80 especially plant-based recipes, 00:07:52.83\00:07:54.57 I think high speed blenders like your best friend 00:07:54.60\00:07:56.14 in the kitchen, 00:07:56.17\00:07:57.51 that my husband would disagree with me that 00:07:57.54\00:07:58.87 he's my best friend in the kitchen, which I laughed 00:07:58.91\00:08:01.28 because I always call him my soups chef 00:08:01.31\00:08:02.68 and my chief bottle washer and my, he's my prep cook too. 00:08:02.71\00:08:06.82 But we do, but I do, this is in fact 00:08:06.85\00:08:09.58 your second best friend in the kitchen. 00:08:09.62\00:08:10.95 How's that? All right. 00:08:10.99\00:08:12.32 So we're gonna just make sure that 00:08:12.35\00:08:13.69 we're and we always make sure your blender is on low to start 00:08:13.72\00:08:15.06 because you don't need to 00:08:15.09\00:08:16.42 have the showers of blessings, right? 00:08:16.46\00:08:17.79 No, here we go. We'll just get that going. 00:08:17.83\00:08:19.93 It will get louder as we go. 00:08:19.96\00:08:21.30 It's well mixed. And that's it. 00:08:38.11\00:08:40.05 And that's our, and now we would just 00:08:40.08\00:08:42.28 pour this right on our waffle iron. 00:08:42.32\00:08:44.35 However, we didn't heat this up. 00:08:44.39\00:08:46.69 So, we're not going to pour it out now. 00:08:46.72\00:08:48.59 But that's all you need any waffle iron will do. 00:08:48.62\00:08:50.36 Right. 00:08:50.39\00:08:51.73 And if you just get sometimes 00:08:51.76\00:08:53.09 if it gets a little thicker as it sits for a bit, 00:08:53.13\00:08:55.93 just add a little water, that's all and just mix it up 00:08:55.96\00:08:58.33 but we have some waffles already. 00:08:58.37\00:09:00.50 Okay, the magic of television.

And you know what? 00:12:06.35\00:12:07.69 Honestly, oh, good, our berries are boiling now. 00:12:07.72\00:12:10.43 Yes. 00:12:10.46\00:12:11.79 But, you know, when we're talking 00:12:11.83\00:12:13.16 about simple, we have such busy lifestyle. 00:12:13.19\00:12:14.53 Everyone does. You know what? 00:12:14.56\00:12:15.90 Let's make things easy. And use simple ingredients too. 00:12:15.93\00:12:18.67 And nutritious. Exact, well, of course. 00:12:18.70\00:12:20.54 Of course. And then, of course, delicious. 00:12:20.57\00:12:22.14 If it doesn't taste good, nobody's going to eat it. 00:12:22.17\00:12:24.11 So, what I'm going to do now that I have these, the berries, 00:12:24.14\00:12:26.34 I'm going to turn them down just a little bit. 00:12:26.37\00:12:28.61 And they're boiling up, 00:12:28.64\00:12:30.25 I'm going to actually mix my cornstarch 00:12:30.28\00:12:31.75 and I'm mixing this in just room temperature water. 00:12:31.78\00:12:33.45 Yes. 00:12:33.48\00:12:34.82 And the reason why is because the starch 00:12:34.85\00:12:36.89 if it's in warm, if we put that right in there, 00:12:36.92\00:12:38.42 it would get lumpy and bumpy and it wouldn't dissolve. 00:12:38.45\00:12:41.39 So, this is considered a cornstarch slurry. 00:12:41.42\00:12:43.73 And it makes it sticky, right? 00:12:43.76\00:12:45.33 If it's warm, it'll be too sticky. 00:12:45.36\00:12:48.10 But we want this to be nice and syrupy. 00:12:48.13\00:12:50.63 So, we're going to just put this in now. 00:12:50.67\00:12:54.10 We can mix it up. 00:12:54.14\00:12:55.47 There we go and we're gonna mix this in. 00:12:55.50\00:13:00.24 And you're gonna see pretty quick 00:13:00.28\00:13:02.04 that this will thicken up. 00:13:02.08\00:13:03.41 And you know, if you had another starch, 00:13:03.45\00:13:05.41 such as like arrowroot starch, 00:13:05.45\00:13:07.52 or even like potato starch, 00:13:07.55\00:13:10.12 if you had nothing else and your tapioca starch, 00:13:10.15\00:13:12.12 you could really use that as well. 00:13:12.15\00:13:13.49 But you can see right away that... 00:13:13.52\00:13:15.06 Yeah, it's starting to thicken. 00:13:15.09\00:13:16.42 It thickened right away, it's done. 00:13:16.46\00:13:18.49 We are done as soon as we remove that 00:13:18.53\00:13:20.16 out of the way, and that one, and we are done. 00:13:20.20\00:13:22.96 And this is off, and we can pour that right in. 00:13:23.00\00:13:26.90 And you can see... Oh, you know what? 00:13:26.94\00:13:30.27 Never good at pouring. All right, there it is. 00:13:30.31\00:13:32.87 So, then we can do that. 00:13:32.91\00:13:34.64 Oh, my, it actually smells very good. 00:13:34.68\00:13:37.78 Oh, now you can really smell the blueberries 00:13:37.81\00:13:39.41 because they've cooked up a little bit. 00:13:39.45\00:13:41.52 All right, and then look at that. 00:13:41.55\00:13:42.88 How's that for a sauce? 00:13:42.92\00:13:44.95 And move that right on your waffle. 00:13:44.99\00:13:46.96 Isn't that beautiful? 00:13:46.99\00:13:48.32 And then, of course, 00:13:48.36\00:13:49.69 like I said, you can put that in the blender 00:13:49.72\00:13:51.06 if you wanted a syrup and make a syrup. 00:13:51.09\00:13:52.93 And this can be frozen. Oh, yeah, I like that. 00:13:52.96\00:13:54.43 You know what? This makes such a huge batch. 00:13:54.46\00:13:56.50 I always put, I just, you know, 00:13:56.53\00:13:58.47 portion it out and then just freeze it 00:13:58.50\00:14:00.50 and then just take it out the night before 00:14:00.54\00:14:01.87 and you just have to warm it up on the stove 00:14:01.90\00:14:03.24 and that's it. 00:14:03.27\00:14:04.61 Oh, okay, see how simple it is and nutritious. 00:14:04.64\00:14:07.41 All right, thank you, Carin. Let's go to our next recipe. 00:14:07.44\00:14:10.55 All right. 00:14:10.58\00:14:11.91 Our next recipe is my Tex-Mex tofu scramble. 00:14:11.95\00:14:14.88 Okay, let's do this. 00:14:56.86\00:14:58.79 Now this is going to be a tofu scramble 00:14:58.83\00:15:01.63 with a twist Actually with a Tex-Mex twist. 00:15:01.66\00:15:04.80 Tex-Mex Tex-Mex twist. All right. 00:15:04.83\00:15:07.30 So, we're gonna start 00:15:07.34\00:15:09.00 by just actually softening some vegetables. 00:15:09.04\00:15:11.01 I'm going to soften, get that on here. 00:15:11.04\00:15:13.21 And most people use oil or butter. 00:15:13.24\00:15:15.01 What do we use? 00:15:15.04\00:15:16.38 I'm actually just going to use water. 00:15:16.41\00:15:17.75 I like that. 00:15:17.78\00:15:19.11 And the reason why is, 00:15:19.15\00:15:20.48 but there's a couple reasons why. 00:15:20.52\00:15:21.85 The first is that you can actually 00:15:21.88\00:15:23.22 be a little heavy handed when you use oil. 00:15:23.25\00:15:25.85 You know I mean you don't, you know, 00:15:25.89\00:15:27.22 you're kind of not measuring 00:15:27.26\00:15:28.59 so you're getting a lot of calories, 00:15:28.62\00:15:29.96 fat calories are more than calories. 00:15:29.99\00:15:31.59 So, for energy, 00:15:31.63\00:15:33.33 so we don't want too too much oil, 00:15:33.36\00:15:35.80 we want to kind of, you know, take in the right amount. 00:15:35.83\00:15:37.63 Right. 00:15:37.67\00:15:39.00 And so, we're not measuring well 00:15:39.03\00:15:40.37 when we do that. 00:15:40.40\00:15:41.74 So, I'm going to actually add some water here. 00:15:41.77\00:15:44.27 And, you know, water will evaporate, 00:15:44.31\00:15:46.07 so how you can put a little extra in there 00:15:46.11\00:15:47.58 and it's fine. 00:15:47.61\00:15:48.94 But we're going to let these start to soften. 00:15:48.98\00:15:50.31 I'm just going to soften 00:15:50.35\00:15:51.68 and make them little translucent. 00:15:51.71\00:15:53.05 Yes. 00:15:53.08\00:15:54.42 If you wanted to, you could actually stick them 00:15:54.45\00:15:55.78 right in the tofu and when you're cooking your tofu, 00:15:55.82\00:15:58.22 I like to soften a little bit though. 00:15:58.25\00:15:59.95 But I'll tell you another reason 00:15:59.99\00:16:01.32 why you don't want to use oil. 00:16:01.36\00:16:03.12 Oh, I spilled my water here. 00:16:03.16\00:16:06.19 Is because oil, 00:16:06.23\00:16:08.00 actually when you bring it to its smoke point, 00:16:08.03\00:16:09.73 and usually depending on what kind of oil you use, 00:16:09.76\00:16:12.23 it's about 350, 325-350 degrees, 00:16:12.27\00:16:15.77 it breaks down molecularly causing it to be a carcinogen. 00:16:15.80\00:16:19.77 So, we don't want to do 00:16:19.81\00:16:21.14 a cancer causing agent in our food, right? 00:16:21.18\00:16:23.11 So, of course, so you know, that's why fried foods, 00:16:23.14\00:16:25.28 you know, it's nice that they have 00:16:25.31\00:16:26.65 like the air fryer now and things like that, 00:16:26.68\00:16:28.38 that people can crisp things without frying. 00:16:28.42\00:16:31.12 Yes. So we are just gonna... 00:16:31.15\00:16:32.49 We'll just saute that. 00:16:32.52\00:16:33.86 While we're doing this, so let's go ahead 00:16:33.89\00:16:35.32 and get our tofu ready. 00:16:35.36\00:16:36.69 Okay. 00:16:36.73\00:16:38.06 We're doing dessert, we're gonna mash it, 00:16:38.09\00:16:39.43 that's a potato masher is good for a lot of multi-use tool. 00:16:39.46\00:16:43.33 You just got to mash that up, you have to mash it too, 00:16:43.37\00:16:45.57 too fine but not too chunky. 00:16:45.60\00:16:47.57 You want to do it to whatever, you know, 00:16:47.60\00:16:50.11 what scrambled eggs would be 00:16:50.14\00:16:51.47 because when we put it in the pan, 00:16:51.51\00:16:52.84 we're going to kind of mix it 00:16:52.87\00:16:54.21 around a little bit again anyway, 00:16:54.24\00:16:55.58 so Now tofu is made of what? 00:16:55.61\00:16:56.95 Soy? It's actually just soybeans. 00:16:56.98\00:16:58.61 What you do is you kind of make like 00:16:58.65\00:16:59.98 a soy milk, you know. 00:17:00.02\00:17:01.45 And then what you would do 00:17:01.48\00:17:03.15 is you would coagulate that usually. 00:17:03.18\00:17:06.59 When I make it at home and this is just purchase, 00:17:06.62\00:17:08.62 you can buy a block of tofu 00:17:08.66\00:17:09.99 in your produce section of the grocery store. 00:17:10.03\00:17:12.63 But you can... Is this soft tofu? 00:17:12.66\00:17:15.60 This is actually firmer, extra firm. 00:17:15.63\00:17:17.47 I think this is actually an extra firm. 00:17:17.50\00:17:19.13 I use extra firm for most everything or firm. 00:17:19.17\00:17:22.17 Oh, that's perfect. All right. 00:17:22.20\00:17:23.54 So we're gonna add our seasonings too, 00:17:23.57\00:17:25.04 so I'll put these in. 00:17:25.07\00:17:26.61 We've got our onion powder and garlic powder, 00:17:26.64\00:17:30.45 our chicken style seasoning. 00:17:30.48\00:17:32.91 And that's just a mix of herbs. 00:17:32.95\00:17:34.28 We call it chicken style, 00:17:34.32\00:17:35.65 but it's actually a little salt Now I'm going to be 00:17:35.68\00:17:37.89 putting some nutritional yeast flakes in there. 00:17:37.92\00:17:39.85 I love nutritional yeast. Yeah, and this is turmeric. 00:17:39.89\00:17:42.69 This is going to give it its color. 00:17:42.72\00:17:44.13 Now the one thing I do want to tell you though 00:17:44.16\00:17:45.76 when we mix this in is that you're going to say, 00:17:45.79\00:17:47.90 well, it's not so, it's not so yellow like an egg, 00:17:47.93\00:17:50.97 like a scrambled egg. 00:17:51.00\00:17:52.33 But the turmeric will 00:17:52.37\00:17:53.90 when you heat it up, become vibrant. 00:17:53.94\00:17:56.67 I've made the mistake of like, 00:17:56.71\00:17:58.07 oh, I need a little more and then my eggs, 00:17:58.11\00:18:00.08 my tofu scramble is going to look like neon, 00:18:00.11\00:18:04.05 neon yellow. 00:18:04.08\00:18:05.41 So we don't that. We don't want that. 00:18:05.45\00:18:06.78 No, we don't want that. 00:18:06.82\00:18:08.15 But I'm gonna tell you 00:18:08.18\00:18:09.52 what I think one of the greatest ingredients 00:18:09.55\00:18:10.89 is for this tofu scramble. 00:18:10.92\00:18:12.25 This is black salt. What is black salt? 00:18:12.29\00:18:14.89 I never heard of black salt. 00:18:14.92\00:18:16.42 You know black salt is actually from India. 00:18:16.46\00:18:20.16 And actually has sulfur in it, 00:18:20.20\00:18:23.26 so it gives it like a little bit of an eggy taste. 00:18:23.30\00:18:26.57 It smells eggy. 00:18:26.60\00:18:27.94 Right, you can smell that right away. 00:18:27.97\00:18:29.37 So, you mix that up get that all in well. 00:18:29.40\00:18:31.61 While that is sauteing, 00:18:31.64\00:18:35.08 I tell you it smells exactly like eggs. 00:18:35.11\00:18:38.88 Right. I've never. 00:18:38.91\00:18:40.72 You know, tofu is a blank canvas. 00:18:40.75\00:18:42.12 You know we talked about 00:18:42.15\00:18:43.49 sometimes recipes are a blank canvas. 00:18:43.52\00:18:45.12 Tofu was one of those things 00:18:45.15\00:18:46.49 that doesn't have any real flavor 00:18:46.52\00:18:48.39 but anything you mix with it, 00:18:48.42\00:18:49.76 any of the seasonings that you put together 00:18:49.79\00:18:52.39 are going to make this what it is. 00:18:52.43\00:18:53.90 Yes. 00:18:53.93\00:18:55.26 So, you know, so this is going to be 00:18:55.30\00:18:56.63 our tofu scramble. 00:18:56.67\00:18:58.00 So let's get this. 00:18:58.03\00:18:59.37 Now where do you get black salt from? 00:18:59.40\00:19:00.74 Oh, you know what? 00:19:00.77\00:19:02.10 Actually I can never found it in a regular food store. 00:19:02.14\00:19:03.47 This is one of those items 00:19:03.51\00:19:04.84 and I try not to use too many specialty items. 00:19:04.87\00:19:06.91 I try to make my recipe simple that you can buy 00:19:06.94\00:19:09.21 in the grocery store most everything, 00:19:09.24\00:19:11.75 maybe you go to the health food store 00:19:11.78\00:19:13.62 once every month or two maybe, 00:19:13.65\00:19:16.48 but most, everything should be able to be done 00:19:16.52\00:19:20.06 in the grocery store. 00:19:20.09\00:19:21.42 This one though you'd have to buy in like a, 00:19:21.46\00:19:23.43 I would say in Indian grocery store, Indian, 00:19:23.46\00:19:26.63 because it's from India. 00:19:26.66\00:19:29.23 I'm gonna use this here 00:19:29.26\00:19:32.33 and then just going to get our 00:19:32.37\00:19:34.70 and you're gonna see the color is going to pop right out. 00:19:34.74\00:19:37.51 It's already. And this is so good. 00:19:37.54\00:19:42.64 And once I get the tofu mixed 00:19:42.68\00:19:44.01 in with the onions and the peppers, 00:19:44.05\00:19:45.38 then I'll put the tomatoes 00:19:45.41\00:19:46.75 and I don't do the tomatoes ahead of time. 00:19:46.78\00:19:48.12 I guess they get a little 00:19:48.15\00:19:49.48 or they get a little mushy, right? 00:19:49.52\00:19:50.85 So here we go though, you can see 00:19:50.89\00:19:54.66 that our color's coming up really nice. 00:19:54.69\00:19:56.49 Yes. 00:19:56.52\00:19:57.86 Angie, I have to tell you a great story. 00:19:57.89\00:19:59.49 I was doing a breakfast for my church, 00:19:59.53\00:20:02.43 and we did a completely 00:20:02.46\00:20:03.80 plant-based breakfast from scratch, 00:20:03.83\00:20:05.97 and it was nice because we had a lot, you know, 00:20:06.00\00:20:07.34 the church members come in. 00:20:07.37\00:20:08.70 You know, a lot of church members 00:20:08.74\00:20:10.07 aren't completely plant-based. 00:20:10.11\00:20:12.47 So it was nice to introduce them 00:20:12.51\00:20:13.84 to some new recipes. 00:20:13.88\00:20:15.81 And it was interesting 00:20:15.84\00:20:17.18 because a lot of times people are afraid of tofu, right? 00:20:17.21\00:20:19.81 And so they don't want to try it. 00:20:19.85\00:20:21.78 And it was funny 00:20:21.82\00:20:23.15 because I was talking to somebody 00:20:23.18\00:20:25.15 who was not really a big tofu fan. 00:20:25.19\00:20:27.09 Right? 00:20:27.12\00:20:28.46 And it was funny, her grandson came up to her and said, 00:20:28.49\00:20:32.49 "Grandma, these are the best scrambled eggs 00:20:32.53\00:20:34.40 I ever had." 00:20:34.43\00:20:35.86 And I said, thank you, Lord. 00:20:35.90\00:20:38.43 Thank you, Lord, that even out of the mouth of babes. 00:20:38.47\00:20:40.40 Right? 00:20:40.44\00:20:41.77 So I think that people should give it, 00:20:41.80\00:20:44.07 give tofu a chance. Right? 00:20:44.11\00:20:45.81 You know, it's really about how we prepare it. 00:20:45.84\00:20:48.74 Lower that a little bit. So good. 00:20:48.78\00:20:50.81 And I love the colors 00:20:50.85\00:20:52.18 that you mix into it, red, the green. 00:20:52.21\00:20:54.12 Exactly. 00:20:54.15\00:20:55.48 Well, this is my little south western flair, you know. 00:20:55.52\00:20:57.85 I think it's the flags of Mexico, isn't it? 00:20:57.89\00:20:59.22 Yes. 00:20:59.25\00:21:00.59 When we've got the red and the green in there, right? 00:21:00.62\00:21:02.92 All right. So here we go. 00:21:02.96\00:21:04.29 We're just going to... So what about that? 00:21:04.33\00:21:05.76 We're going to top. We're going to just top it. 00:21:05.79\00:21:07.13 Oh, top it.

Oh, my. 00:21:12.87\00:21:15.40 They put that out like that. 00:21:15.44\00:21:16.77 The aroma, if you all could smell this. 00:21:16.81\00:21:20.11 And doesn't it smell like eggs? Yes, yes! 00:21:20.14\00:21:23.01 And then you could just take, 00:21:23.04\00:21:24.38 I have a little bit of this green onion. 00:21:24.41\00:21:25.75 Just put it on. 00:21:25.78\00:21:27.42 Just gives it a little freshness to it too. 00:21:27.45\00:21:29.48 It just gives it that little bit 00:21:29.52\00:21:30.85 of fresh oniony pop, 00:21:30.89\00:21:32.72 but you don't use any vegetable. 00:21:32.75\00:21:34.09 I didn't turn this off. 00:21:34.12\00:21:35.52 Use any vegetable that you like. 00:21:35.56\00:21:38.26 I mean, I use this because 00:21:38.29\00:21:39.73 I like that I think these go nice 00:21:39.76\00:21:41.13 with south western flavors, 00:21:41.16\00:21:42.63 but you can use whatever you want. 00:21:42.66\00:21:44.07 I'm a Jamaican. 00:21:44.10\00:21:45.43 So I use my Jamaican seasoning. 00:21:45.47\00:21:46.90 There you go. There you go. 00:21:46.94\00:21:48.27 Give it that Jamaican flavor. Of course. 00:21:48.30\00:21:50.21 So I can make it my own. Exactly. 00:21:50.24\00:21:51.67 And that's what recipes are. They really are a guide. 00:21:51.71\00:21:53.74 I'm putting right now 00:21:53.78\00:21:55.11 a little taco seasoning on here 00:21:55.14\00:21:57.48 to give it that's what it stand for. 00:21:57.51\00:21:59.61 And so that... Is that in your cookbook? 00:21:59.65\00:22:01.75 It is in my book. 00:22:01.78\00:22:03.62 Everything we're making today is in my cookbook. 00:22:03.65\00:22:05.75 How's that? 00:22:05.79\00:22:08.09 And there is our Tex-Mex tofu scramble. 00:22:08.12\00:22:11.86 How's that? Fabulous. Okay. 00:22:11.89\00:22:13.36 I can't wait to have some 00:22:13.40\00:22:14.76 and you viewers, listeners, you have to get this. 00:22:14.80\00:22:18.63 You have to get the cookbook 00:22:18.67\00:22:20.07 and you have to try this wonderful Tex-Mex. 00:22:20.10\00:22:25.01 Tex-Mex tofu scrambled. 00:22:25.04\00:22:26.68 Tofu scramble. 00:22:26.71\00:22:28.04 And it smells good. Okay. 00:22:28.08\00:22:29.41 Let's go on to our next recipe. All right. 00:22:29.44\00:22:31.88 So now we're going to do unsausages. 00:22:31.91\00:22:34.42 Okay. Let's try this unsausage. 00:23:05.48\00:23:07.88 You know, a lot of people like sausage, don't they? 00:23:07.92\00:23:10.45 Absolutely. 00:23:10.49\00:23:11.82 They love to eat sausage in the morning. 00:23:11.85\00:23:14.06 Their bacon and sausage, but it's so unhealthy. 00:23:14.09\00:23:17.66 But today we are going to make unsausage patties. 00:23:17.69\00:23:21.03 Okay. So let's do this, Carin. 00:23:21.06\00:23:22.43 All right. Let me start this stove again. 00:23:22.46\00:23:25.53 And we're going to actually 00:23:25.57\00:23:26.90 just pour in all of our ingredients 00:23:26.94\00:23:28.77 except our oats. 00:23:28.80\00:23:30.37 So we're going to get this to boil. 00:23:30.41\00:23:32.47 Oh, I've got our water here. 00:23:32.51\00:23:33.84 And then I'm going to put in all of our seasonings. 00:23:33.88\00:23:37.11 Now Bragg's, I mentioned Bragg's liquid aminos. 00:23:37.15\00:23:40.18 That is a soy sauce substitute. 00:23:40.22\00:23:42.12 This is going to give us like that 00:23:42.15\00:23:43.49 savoriness that we're looking for in 00:23:43.52\00:23:45.85 like a meat product, even though it's not meat. 00:23:45.89\00:23:49.02 Putting a little protein in, 00:23:49.06\00:23:50.39 I mixed some sunflower seeds and walnuts. 00:23:50.43\00:23:54.26 We chopped them up. 00:23:54.30\00:23:55.63 You know this, you can grind up all the way 00:23:55.66\00:23:57.43 or if you like a little texture, 00:23:57.47\00:23:58.93 I like a little texture. 00:23:58.97\00:24:00.37 I add them in like that. Sunflower seeds and walnuts. 00:24:00.40\00:24:02.54 That's right. Hey. 00:24:02.57\00:24:03.91 So our nutritional yeast flakes. 00:24:03.94\00:24:05.27 I love that. 00:24:05.31\00:24:06.64 Now we talked about nutritional yeast flakes 00:24:06.68\00:24:08.01 in our scramble, but nutritional yeast flakes 00:24:08.04\00:24:11.25 are actually a by-product 00:24:11.28\00:24:13.72 of growing yeast off of molasses. 00:24:13.75\00:24:16.15 And then they like heat it and they deactivate the yeast. 00:24:16.18\00:24:18.65 So, it's not like an active yeast, 00:24:18.69\00:24:20.02 like a bread that you rise, 00:24:20.06\00:24:21.82 but it's actually a nutritional supplement 00:24:21.86\00:24:23.43 because they fortify it with B12 vitamins. 00:24:23.46\00:24:27.06 So, it's good to have. 00:24:27.10\00:24:28.80 I cannot live without my nutritional yeast. 00:24:28.83\00:24:30.43 That's right. 00:24:30.47\00:24:31.80 I'm going to put a little oil in here. 00:24:31.83\00:24:33.17 We do have the nuts in there, but I think what happens is, 00:24:33.20\00:24:35.27 is when you make this recipe, 00:24:35.30\00:24:36.84 I add the oil because I find that 00:24:36.87\00:24:39.77 you want a little bit of that fattiness. 00:24:39.81\00:24:41.78 If we're talking about like 00:24:41.81\00:24:43.14 something that's like a sausage, 00:24:43.18\00:24:44.65 people are used to that. 00:24:44.68\00:24:46.21 We're trying to make things to transition people 00:24:46.25\00:24:48.48 to a healthier way of life. 00:24:48.52\00:24:49.95 And now this is the key ingredient 00:24:49.98\00:24:51.95 to a breakfast sausage. 00:24:51.99\00:24:53.32 Okay. What is that? This is sage. 00:24:53.36\00:24:54.69 Oh, I love sage. 00:24:54.72\00:24:56.06 Sage is going to give that flavor 00:24:56.09\00:24:59.33 of what you're used to in a sausage 00:24:59.36\00:25:01.93 and that for breakfast sausage, you know, 00:25:01.96\00:25:03.43 and the Italian sausage, they use fennel, 00:25:03.47\00:25:05.70 but in breakfast sausage, they use sage. 00:25:05.73\00:25:08.00 So this is going to... You get that? 00:25:08.04\00:25:10.31 And we're going to just, 00:25:10.34\00:25:11.67 I'll put a lid on this 00:25:11.71\00:25:13.04 because I think that'll heat it up 00:25:13.07\00:25:14.41 a little bit faster for us. 00:25:14.44\00:25:16.81 And the only thing we have now is our oats. 00:25:16.85\00:25:19.75 So when you have the scrambled tofu 00:25:19.78\00:25:22.45 and you have your, what, the unsausages... 00:25:22.48\00:25:25.89 Unsausages. 00:25:25.92\00:25:27.26 And you have your waffles, 00:25:27.29\00:25:29.69 I mean, what a great healthy ingredients 00:25:29.72\00:25:33.09 you have, I mean... 00:25:33.13\00:25:34.46 Well, you know what? 00:25:34.50\00:25:35.83 You want to try to get as whole. 00:25:35.86\00:25:37.20 But simple. 00:25:37.23\00:25:38.57 Yes, simple nutritious, delicious. 00:25:38.60\00:25:39.93 Let's go back to that, but whole foods. 00:25:39.97\00:25:42.60 We want to be as whole food plant-based as we can. 00:25:42.64\00:25:45.07 And whole foods, meaning that we're taking foods 00:25:45.11\00:25:46.78 in their natural state, not processed, not refined. 00:25:46.81\00:25:49.88 You know now the oil like 00:25:49.91\00:25:51.25 the olive oil is a little refined. 00:25:51.28\00:25:52.81 So we're using just sometimes 00:25:52.85\00:25:57.29 a little bit of our refined products, 00:25:57.32\00:25:59.62 but really try to be as much whole food 00:25:59.65\00:26:01.96 as we can, you know. 00:26:01.99\00:26:03.99 That's what we're doing. Yeah. 00:26:04.03\00:26:05.36 And you know we talked about breakfast. 00:26:05.39\00:26:06.90 We should be eating breakfast like a king. 00:26:06.93\00:26:09.40 A lot of times people want to lose weight 00:26:09.43\00:26:11.27 or they want to, you know, they try to skip breakfast. 00:26:11.30\00:26:14.67 Breakfast is our most important meal. 00:26:14.70\00:26:16.60 It says, breaking the fast, that's the word itself. 00:26:16.64\00:26:18.97 Exactly. It's breaking the fast. 00:26:19.01\00:26:20.34 Our body has had time 00:26:20.38\00:26:21.71 to rejuvenate and repair and restore. 00:26:21.74\00:26:24.15 But now it's time to get going, right? 00:26:24.18\00:26:25.95 We have our day that we need to go forth 00:26:25.98\00:26:28.72 and do our work and do the things 00:26:28.75\00:26:30.09 we need to do. 00:26:30.12\00:26:31.45 So, if we're doing that, what we need to do 00:26:31.49\00:26:33.25 is get a good quality breakfast. 00:26:33.29\00:26:35.26 In fact, most of our calories should be eaten at breakfast. 00:26:35.29\00:26:38.33 In the morning breakfast. Actually. 00:26:38.36\00:26:39.73 Yeah, you said it breaking the fast from the nighttime. 00:26:39.76\00:26:41.70 That's right. And you know what? 00:26:41.73\00:26:43.33 People who skip breakfast, like I had said... 00:26:43.37\00:26:45.10 Oh, I used to do that. But you know what? 00:26:45.13\00:26:46.80 This is the thing. 00:26:46.84\00:26:48.17 The calories that you eat at breakfast 00:26:48.20\00:26:50.04 are expended by the end of the day. 00:26:50.07\00:26:52.04 So the more calories you had breakfast, 00:26:52.07\00:26:53.68 the better off you are because what happens is this, 00:26:53.71\00:26:56.04 we skip breakfast, we're hungry later. 00:26:56.08\00:26:58.11 We decide that 00:26:58.15\00:26:59.48 we want to snack here, eat here. 00:26:59.51\00:27:01.22 And we end up actually on the average, 00:27:01.25\00:27:02.88 eating more calories. 00:27:02.92\00:27:04.45 And eating them at the end which aren't exercised 00:27:04.49\00:27:07.32 and expended through our daily activities. 00:27:07.36\00:27:10.23 Yes. So big breakfast, everyone. 00:27:10.26\00:27:12.29 Yeah. Breakfast is important. 00:27:12.33\00:27:13.70 And then lunch is like a queen. Queen and... 00:27:13.73\00:27:16.87 King, queen, and then dinner like a pauper. 00:27:16.90\00:27:18.90 We should really... 00:27:18.93\00:27:20.27 You know, we're in the United States, 00:27:20.30\00:27:21.64 we're so used to eating 00:27:21.67\00:27:23.00 our biggest meal together at night, 00:27:23.04\00:27:24.97 but we really should be trying to eat a lighter... 00:27:25.01\00:27:28.44 Something easy on our stomach so that we can go to bed, rest, 00:27:28.48\00:27:32.28 and we've already digested. 00:27:32.31\00:27:34.08 So exact breakfast again. 00:27:34.12\00:27:35.68 Let's see, oh, we're already boiling here. 00:27:35.72\00:27:38.09 Look at that. See how time flies, right? Yes. 00:27:38.12\00:27:40.56 So all I'm doing now is I'm going to turn. 00:27:40.59\00:27:42.76 No, actually I'll leave that on for a minute. 00:27:42.79\00:27:45.99 I'm going to put my oats. 00:27:46.03\00:27:48.30 Now, these are quick oats, if you like. 00:27:48.33\00:27:49.66 Oh, are they quick oats? These are quick oats, 00:27:49.70\00:27:51.03 but if you like, like a chewier texture, 00:27:51.07\00:27:53.37 you could use regular oats. 00:27:53.40\00:27:54.74 Use whatever you have is really what you think. 00:27:54.77\00:27:57.87 Now I'm actually going to turn this off now 00:27:57.91\00:27:59.61 because it's pretty hot. 00:27:59.64\00:28:01.11 And I'm going to let this thicken up a little bit, 00:28:01.14\00:28:03.11 you know, quick oats will absorb 00:28:03.14\00:28:04.48 the water in here. 00:28:04.51\00:28:05.85 Can you smell that? Oh my. 00:28:05.88\00:28:08.38 And you know, it's thickening, like you said it together. 00:28:08.42\00:28:09.75 Yeah. 00:28:09.78\00:28:11.12 Well, what we're going to do is let that get a little bit 00:28:11.15\00:28:12.49 using that starch to bind that together 00:28:12.52\00:28:15.09 so that we can make some patties. 00:28:15.12\00:28:16.96 Oh, my. And so, we're just going to. 00:28:16.99\00:28:19.53 You just mix it. 00:28:19.56\00:28:20.90 And the aroma, oh my, it smell so good. 00:28:20.93\00:28:23.53 And I think it's because of the sage 00:28:23.57\00:28:24.90 and mixing with 00:28:24.93\00:28:26.27 all those herbs together, you know. 00:28:26.30\00:28:27.64 Yes, yes. 00:28:27.67\00:28:29.00 You said the sage 00:28:29.04\00:28:30.37 brings out the ingredients of meat or something. 00:28:30.41\00:28:32.01 You know, it definitely for like breakfast sausage, 00:28:32.04\00:28:35.54 sage is one of those main ingredients 00:28:35.58\00:28:37.25 that they use in meat product. 00:28:37.28\00:28:38.75 And so this is going to kind of mimic 00:28:38.78\00:28:40.38 that in a good way though 00:28:40.42\00:28:41.82 'cause I'm going to tell you, texturally, 00:28:41.85\00:28:44.45 you're going to be like, wow, this is amazing. 00:28:44.49\00:28:46.82 This could be almost like meat. 00:28:46.86\00:28:49.66 And it's sticking together. It is, it's starting to. 00:28:49.69\00:28:51.89 What did you use to make it stick again? 00:28:51.93\00:28:53.60 It's just, no, it's just the starch of the oats. 00:28:53.63\00:28:55.46 Yeah. 00:28:55.50\00:28:56.83 The oats are absorbing the water 00:28:56.87\00:28:58.77 and the seasonings together and that's it. 00:28:58.80\00:29:00.94 So we're just, you know, 00:29:00.97\00:29:02.30 oats are pretty starchy, that's why. 00:29:02.34\00:29:03.84 Okay. And you could freeze these? 00:29:03.87\00:29:05.91 You know, what I do is when I bake them, 00:29:05.94\00:29:08.61 I under bake them just by a couple of minutes 00:29:08.64\00:29:10.95 on each side 00:29:10.98\00:29:12.31 'cause you could do 12 to 15 minutes on each side, 00:29:12.35\00:29:14.55 maybe back it off to 10 to 12. 00:29:14.58\00:29:16.28 Right. 00:29:16.32\00:29:17.65 And then you can cool them, freeze them. 00:29:17.69\00:29:19.69 It's what I do. 00:29:19.72\00:29:21.06 And I put them in the freezer 00:29:21.09\00:29:22.42 and then I take them out the night before. 00:29:22.46\00:29:23.79 You know, there's something to be 00:29:23.83\00:29:25.16 said about defrosting the night before. 00:29:25.19\00:29:26.90 A lot of times we take right out of the freezer, 00:29:26.93\00:29:28.56 we put it in the oven, 00:29:28.60\00:29:29.93 but what happens is in order to bring that 00:29:29.96\00:29:31.30 to temperature, it's going to dry things out. 00:29:31.33\00:29:33.34 So let it defrost in the refrigerator, 00:29:33.37\00:29:34.70 even if it's cold. 00:29:34.74\00:29:36.07 And then, you know, 00:29:36.10\00:29:37.44 you just heat them up on each side 00:29:37.47\00:29:39.71 and you have a perfect little sausage patty 00:29:39.74\00:29:42.78 type of thing, unsausage patty. 00:29:42.81\00:29:44.68 Unsausage. So you could... 00:29:44.71\00:29:47.18 Can you heat them up 00:29:47.22\00:29:48.55 with olive oil or spray to your pan? 00:29:48.58\00:29:51.55 You could that too. 00:29:51.59\00:29:52.95 I try not to do in the pan. 00:29:52.99\00:29:54.32 You could easily do that 00:29:54.36\00:29:55.69 and it will brown them a little nicer, 00:29:55.72\00:29:57.33 but I try not to 00:29:57.36\00:29:58.69 because I don't want to heat that oil up. 00:29:58.73\00:30:00.06 Oh, I see. 00:30:00.10\00:30:01.43 You know, when oil is actually inside 00:30:01.46\00:30:03.13 an ingredient and we bake it, 00:30:03.16\00:30:04.63 like, just even like a loaf of bread, 00:30:04.67\00:30:06.13 if we're using a little oil or something like that. 00:30:06.17\00:30:09.67 You know, what happens is, 00:30:09.70\00:30:11.71 is that the temperature doesn't get to the smoke point. 00:30:11.74\00:30:13.94 So it doesn't affect the oil. Yes. 00:30:13.98\00:30:15.94 But when we're doing it in the pan, 00:30:15.98\00:30:17.65 we heat that up, and then it starts changing. 00:30:17.68\00:30:20.32 And having that little bit of that carcinogen effect. 00:30:20.35\00:30:23.22 I'm just trying to cool this down 00:30:23.25\00:30:24.65 just a bit so that we can make those patties. 00:30:24.69\00:30:28.52 And it's sticking pretty well. 00:30:28.56\00:30:30.13 Yeah, it's getting there, but you just want it to cool. 00:30:30.16\00:30:33.13 First of all, we don't want to burn our fingers. 00:30:33.16\00:30:34.90 The second thing is that we want it to be thick enough 00:30:34.93\00:30:38.03 that it's going to make a patty. 00:30:38.07\00:30:39.63 Now I have a little trick. 00:30:39.67\00:30:41.50 You know, people always 00:30:41.54\00:30:43.20 have these fancy different gadgets. 00:30:43.24\00:30:46.17 And I tell you, 00:30:46.21\00:30:47.54 I have a lot of gadgets in my kitchen. 00:30:47.58\00:30:48.91 I try gadgets, But you're a practical person. 00:30:48.94\00:30:51.15 But I learned that, you know, 00:30:51.18\00:30:52.75 I'm a missionary and on a missionary budget. 00:30:52.78\00:30:54.98 So I've learned that there are new other things 00:30:55.02\00:30:56.99 that I don't need to buy all the fancy gadgets. 00:30:57.02\00:30:59.75 This is a mason jar lid. 00:30:59.79\00:31:01.86 All I did was I took some plastic wrap 00:31:01.89\00:31:04.49 and put it around the little lid and the ring. 00:31:04.53\00:31:09.03 I put a little olive oil in here just to, 00:31:09.06\00:31:11.47 just so it doesn't stick, but you don't need much. 00:31:11.50\00:31:14.07 And then what we're going to do is when this is ready, 00:31:14.10\00:31:15.97 we're going to just pat that in there 00:31:16.00\00:31:17.34 and make our little patties. 00:31:17.37\00:31:18.71 Oh, what a great idea. Portion controlled. 00:31:18.74\00:31:20.08 You can do this too when you're making like 00:31:20.11\00:31:21.84 veggie burgers, bean burgers, oat burgers, 00:31:21.88\00:31:25.51 whatever you're doing, you can do that. 00:31:25.55\00:31:27.25 And this will make, I use the big ring. 00:31:27.28\00:31:29.48 You just use the wide mouth lid. 00:31:29.52\00:31:30.95 I never thought of that. It's so easy. 00:31:30.99\00:31:33.05 All right, we're getting there. I just want to get this. 00:31:33.09\00:31:35.22 Have you ever made 00:31:35.26\00:31:36.59 a huge amount of those sausages for a lot of people? 00:31:36.62\00:31:41.56 Well, you know what? 00:31:41.60\00:31:42.93 I double the recipe usually 00:31:42.96\00:31:44.30 and I make enough, and I put them in my freezer. 00:31:44.33\00:31:45.87 That's right, I'm not much of a caterer though. 00:31:45.90\00:31:47.64 I don't do big, big groups, but I can do. 00:31:47.67\00:31:49.77 No, I don't. No, not really. 00:31:49.80\00:31:51.54 I like to do like small gatherings. 00:31:51.57\00:31:53.74 I can do like a little, you know, 00:31:53.78\00:31:55.11 friends having friends over or having just a small group, 00:31:55.14\00:31:58.41 but I'm not good at a big, huge group. 00:31:58.45\00:32:02.08 I think that, you know, what happens is, 00:32:02.12\00:32:03.52 is that you lose some of the integrity 00:32:03.55\00:32:04.95 when you're making things in mass quantity. 00:32:04.99\00:32:07.62 Like to double a recipe usually is okay. 00:32:07.66\00:32:10.26 But when you're doing like triple, 00:32:10.29\00:32:12.96 quadruple things like that, you start losing a little bit, 00:32:12.99\00:32:16.10 even if you measure everything exactly. 00:32:16.13\00:32:18.33 It's true. The love is not as much in it. 00:32:18.37\00:32:20.27 I like that, the love. All right. 00:32:20.30\00:32:22.54 Okay. It looks pretty. I think we're getting close. 00:32:22.57\00:32:24.37 I think we can probably try to make a patty. 00:32:24.41\00:32:26.78 You know, you want to make it, these are a little hot. 00:32:26.81\00:32:28.61 So we're doing this a little. 00:32:28.64\00:32:30.21 I say a little premature because they are hot, 00:32:30.25\00:32:33.25 but I just take. 00:32:33.28\00:32:35.38 Let's do this here. 00:32:35.42\00:32:36.92 And pack this in pretty good. Look how you do that? 00:32:36.95\00:32:39.65 Yeah, just pack it in and... Pack it in. 00:32:39.69\00:32:45.56 Oh, my. All right. 00:32:45.59\00:32:47.70 And then we just put them down. 00:32:47.73\00:32:50.43 You can take the ring off and then, here's our patty. 00:32:50.47\00:32:53.20 Viola! Beautiful! See how easy. 00:32:53.23\00:32:55.17 And then what we'll do is we can go ahead 00:32:55.20\00:32:56.74 and put them on there, do a whole tray. 00:32:56.77\00:32:58.84 And you bake that in the oven. 00:32:58.87\00:33:00.21 And then halfway through what you're going to do 00:33:00.24\00:33:01.58 is you're going to turn them over 00:33:01.61\00:33:03.14 and you'll be able to. 00:33:03.18\00:33:04.61 This is so simple. It's so simple. 00:33:04.65\00:33:06.48 In fact, let's show you. 00:33:06.51\00:33:08.68 We didn't have time to bake them, but. 00:33:08.72\00:33:10.99 Go to the oven and bring out the completed. 00:33:11.02\00:33:14.79 When it's all done, the sausage, 00:33:14.82\00:33:17.43 the unsausage is all done and seen a beautiful platter. 00:33:17.46\00:33:21.63 It smells awesome in here. 00:33:21.66\00:33:24.40 And here comes Carin with the unsausage. 00:33:24.43\00:33:27.14 And here's our unsausages. Here we go. 00:33:27.17\00:33:29.40 So I guess we can go like this, right, and show. 00:33:29.44\00:33:31.77 There are our unsausages. 00:33:31.81\00:33:33.27 And then, of course, I like to do this. 00:33:33.31\00:33:35.18 Make a little, fill a little something on top. 00:33:35.21\00:33:37.91 Yeah. 00:33:37.95\00:33:39.28 Just bring it in because 00:33:39.31\00:33:40.65 they're not the prettiest color. 00:33:40.68\00:33:42.02 I guess they're brown. 00:33:42.05\00:33:43.39 It's okay. That's right. 00:33:43.42\00:33:44.75 So we just bring a little, pop them out a little bit. 00:33:44.79\00:33:47.52 How's that? Fabulous, perfecto, simple. 00:33:47.56\00:33:49.86 All right. 00:33:49.89\00:33:51.23 So I guess we're ready for our next recipe. 00:33:51.26\00:33:52.59 Okay. Let's go to our next recipe. 00:33:52.63\00:33:55.73 All right. 00:33:55.76\00:33:57.10 Our next recipe is vanilla cashew milk. 00:33:57.13\00:33:58.93 All right. Now milk. 00:34:14.12\00:34:15.82 A lot of people say, drink milk. 00:34:15.85\00:34:18.32 It's so good for you. 00:34:18.35\00:34:20.02 You know there used to be a phrase 00:34:20.06\00:34:23.43 when I was a kid. 00:34:23.46\00:34:24.79 Milk, it does a body good. I remember that. 00:34:24.83\00:34:26.90 You know, they used to do that little thing, 00:34:26.93\00:34:28.60 and then you drink milk. 00:34:28.63\00:34:29.96 Yes, and the milk mustache and all that. 00:34:30.00\00:34:31.60 Exactly. 00:34:31.63\00:34:32.97 That the fact of the matter is though, 00:34:33.00\00:34:34.34 is that our bodies, we don't need any milk, 00:34:34.37\00:34:36.57 but mother's milk when we were young children. 00:34:36.60\00:34:38.21 Exactly. 00:34:38.24\00:34:39.57 You know, and that's where we start, 00:34:39.61\00:34:40.94 you know, with the milk. 00:34:40.98\00:34:42.31 But our body about age two or so 00:34:42.34\00:34:44.61 has this little phenomenon that God has done with us. 00:34:44.65\00:34:48.68 We don't need any other alternative milks. 00:34:48.72\00:34:54.12 Once we're weaned from our mother's milk, 00:34:54.16\00:34:56.56 our body stops making an enzyme called lactase. 00:34:56.59\00:34:58.56 Oh, yes. 00:34:58.59\00:34:59.93 Now lactase breaks down 00:34:59.96\00:35:02.30 the lactose into glucose and galactose. 00:35:02.33\00:35:05.70 But without that, 00:35:05.73\00:35:07.07 then we actually have too much lactose in our diet. 00:35:07.10\00:35:08.84 And then of course, 00:35:08.87\00:35:10.21 people have a lot of lactose intolerance 00:35:10.24\00:35:11.64 because our body doesn't need it, 00:35:11.67\00:35:13.11 because our body doesn't make that enzyme anymore, 00:35:13.14\00:35:14.91 for the most part. 00:35:14.94\00:35:16.28 Some people maybe still do, 00:35:16.31\00:35:17.65 but for the most part, most people 00:35:17.68\00:35:19.01 are lactose-intolerant after their age of weaning. 00:35:19.05\00:35:21.35 So our body wasn't intended to have milk. 00:35:21.38\00:35:24.29 Right? 00:35:24.32\00:35:25.65 So we're going to make an alternative 00:35:25.69\00:35:27.42 because I think that a lot of times with cereals 00:35:27.46\00:35:29.92 and things like that, you know, even cooking, 00:35:29.96\00:35:32.03 we use milk, but we can use this milk 00:35:32.06\00:35:34.03 as an alternative. 00:35:34.06\00:35:35.40 And that's the nice thing about it. 00:35:35.43\00:35:36.77 Yeah. That's great. 00:35:36.80\00:35:38.13 At home I usually buy the almond milk 00:35:38.17\00:35:39.57 at the grocery store so quick and easy. 00:35:39.60\00:35:41.60 But you know what? This is really quick and easy. 00:35:41.64\00:35:43.24 And I'm going to tell... You know what? 00:35:43.27\00:35:44.61 I'm going to tell you that's even better than 00:35:44.64\00:35:46.14 just being quick and easy is the fact that 00:35:46.17\00:35:49.24 those milks have a lot of additives in it, 00:35:49.28\00:35:52.01 to keep them together for thickness, 00:35:52.05\00:35:55.48 having the right consistency. 00:35:55.52\00:35:57.32 And also, they also water it down a lot. 00:35:57.35\00:36:01.59 Here we're using our fresh nuts and things like that. 00:36:01.62\00:36:04.59 So this is definitely, it's definitely healthier, 00:36:04.63\00:36:07.40 a better alternative 00:36:07.43\00:36:08.76 and it'll save you money in the long run too. 00:36:08.80\00:36:10.13 Yeah. Yeah. 00:36:10.17\00:36:11.50 Well, let's do this. 00:36:11.53\00:36:12.87 You have some cashews that you already soaked them. 00:36:12.90\00:36:14.24 These are, yeah, these are just raw cashews 00:36:14.27\00:36:16.34 that I've soaked. 00:36:16.37\00:36:17.71 I've drained them 00:36:17.74\00:36:19.07 and I've rinsed them really well. 00:36:19.11\00:36:20.44 And the reason why is because 00:36:20.48\00:36:21.81 there's an enzyme on cashews and nuts and beans 00:36:21.84\00:36:25.41 and grains called phytic acid. 00:36:25.45\00:36:27.65 Now phytic acid actually is a protective enzyme. 00:36:27.68\00:36:32.22 But what happens with us is that 00:36:32.25\00:36:33.96 it becomes, you know, 00:36:33.99\00:36:35.32 can give us a little indigestion. 00:36:35.36\00:36:37.39 And also, the most important, 00:36:37.43\00:36:40.26 I guess, reason why physiologically 00:36:40.30\00:36:42.73 is because it blocks the absorption 00:36:42.76\00:36:44.67 of some minerals in our intestines 00:36:44.70\00:36:46.67 and our small intestines 00:36:46.70\00:36:48.04 where we absorb most of our nutrients. 00:36:48.07\00:36:49.77 So, it's not a deal breaker 00:36:49.80\00:36:51.71 if we forget to do our cashews or our nuts or our beans, 00:36:51.74\00:36:56.01 but if we're using them regularly, 00:36:56.04\00:36:58.01 you should probably soak them two hours, 00:36:58.05\00:37:00.32 even overnight would be fine. 00:37:00.35\00:37:02.35 Sometimes I pre-soak. 00:37:02.38\00:37:04.22 If I don't need to blend them or something, I pre-soak them. 00:37:04.25\00:37:07.06 I dry them out and then I freeze them 00:37:07.09\00:37:08.62 or I put them in the refrigerator 00:37:08.66\00:37:09.99 and they're already ready to go. 00:37:10.03\00:37:11.36 Okay. I learned something new. 00:37:11.39\00:37:12.73 You can soak them overnight. 00:37:12.76\00:37:14.10 And I'll tell you the culinary reason 00:37:14.13\00:37:15.46 why we soak them. 00:37:15.50\00:37:16.83 It's softer and easier on the blender too. 00:37:16.87\00:37:18.60 So there's three real reasons why. 00:37:18.63\00:37:20.27 Yes, yes. All Right. 00:37:20.30\00:37:21.64 So we're going to. Let's do this. 00:37:21.67\00:37:23.00 We're going to put our cashews in. 00:37:23.04\00:37:24.37 And these are cashew pieces it looks like. 00:37:24.41\00:37:25.74 Yeah, just cashew pieces. 00:37:25.77\00:37:27.11 You know they're a little cheaper 00:37:27.14\00:37:28.48 than buying whole cashews. 00:37:28.51\00:37:29.84 Yes, they are, yes. So, but they're raw. 00:37:29.88\00:37:31.21 They're not roasted and salted. They're just raw cashews. 00:37:31.25\00:37:33.11 Yes. All right. 00:37:33.15\00:37:34.48 I'm going to add milk. 00:37:34.52\00:37:35.85 No, I'm going to add water to our recipe, our milk recipe, 00:37:35.88\00:37:38.82 but I'm going to only add probably about a cup and a half 00:37:38.85\00:37:43.02 or so maybe about a cup and a half, 00:37:43.06\00:37:45.23 maybe two cups worth. 00:37:45.26\00:37:46.59 Because you know what happens is we blend this, 00:37:46.63\00:37:47.96 it'll get a little foamy. 00:37:48.00\00:37:49.33 So I'll just add this at the end, 00:37:49.36\00:37:50.70 so it doesn't foam up too much. Yeah. 00:37:50.73\00:37:53.03 I have our little bit of vanilla flavoring. 00:37:53.07\00:37:54.77 And if you want this plain, you could just a little bit. 00:37:54.80\00:37:57.11 But I love vanilla. 00:37:57.14\00:37:58.47 Well, this is nice on cereal and things like that. 00:37:58.51\00:38:00.34 And you can just add no vanilla, 00:38:00.38\00:38:02.38 and then I'm going to use a little honey. 00:38:02.41\00:38:03.98 Honey, give it a little sweetness. 00:38:04.01\00:38:05.35 Little sweetness. You can eliminate this as well. 00:38:05.38\00:38:07.52 Yes. I always get the raw honey. 00:38:07.55\00:38:09.95 We have someone at our church who has the bees and ants, 00:38:09.98\00:38:14.19 so they get, we always get fresh honey. 00:38:14.22\00:38:16.32 Wonderful. 00:38:16.36\00:38:17.69 It's always nice to have local honey. 00:38:17.73\00:38:19.06 It's important. 00:38:19.09\00:38:20.73 You know, it's because 00:38:20.76\00:38:22.10 when somebody is farming bees, they take care of their bees. 00:38:22.13\00:38:25.00 They feed their bees properly. 00:38:25.03\00:38:26.37 Bees actually eat honey, that's their nutrition. 00:38:26.40\00:38:28.00 Oh, yeah. 00:38:28.04\00:38:29.37 But when we're commercial beekeepers, 00:38:29.40\00:38:31.57 we want to make money with the honey. 00:38:31.61\00:38:33.07 So we feed the bees, 00:38:33.11\00:38:34.44 things like high fructose corn syrup 00:38:34.48\00:38:35.81 and things like that, 00:38:35.84\00:38:37.18 which sadly then gets in the cell. 00:38:37.21\00:38:39.65 You know, they kind of deposit it 00:38:39.68\00:38:41.02 when they're depositing the honey, 00:38:41.05\00:38:42.38 they deposit some of this high-fructose corn syrup 00:38:42.42\00:38:44.49 on their little tentacles. 00:38:44.52\00:38:46.22 And then we end up with high-fructose corn syrup 00:38:46.25\00:38:48.56 and we thinking it's pure honey. 00:38:48.59\00:38:49.92 Oh, no. 00:38:49.96\00:38:51.39 So all right, make sure that this is on low. 00:38:51.43\00:38:54.36 Everybody on. 00:38:54.40\00:38:55.73 Again, I'm going to put this on, 00:38:55.76\00:38:57.60 not too tight, but make sure it's covered. 00:38:57.63\00:38:59.30 Okay. It's down. 00:38:59.33\00:39:00.67 And we're going to start and get this blended. 00:39:00.70\00:39:02.44 When you're blending nuts, Angie, 00:39:02.47\00:39:04.31 make sure you're blending them, 00:39:04.34\00:39:05.67 at least in a high-speed blender, 00:39:05.71\00:39:07.41 30 to 45 seconds. 00:39:07.44\00:39:09.28 You want no grittiness. 00:39:09.31\00:39:10.65 If it's a regular blender, 00:39:10.68\00:39:12.01 it takes a little longer than that. 00:39:12.05\00:39:13.38 A little longer, yeah. This is a good blender. 00:39:13.42\00:39:15.72 All right. 00:39:15.75\00:39:17.09 Now I'm just going to add the rest of the water. 00:39:20.96\00:39:23.56 Oh, okay. Because see then... 00:39:23.59\00:39:26.16 All right. This is so nice. 00:39:31.30\00:39:33.97 And there we have it. That's how simple it is. 00:39:34.00\00:39:35.77 Simple, nutritious, and delicious. 00:39:35.80\00:39:38.44 I am going to be trying this at home. 00:39:38.47\00:39:41.48 Look how milky it looks. 00:39:41.51\00:39:43.08 And then I just, I like it refrigerated 00:39:43.11\00:39:44.65 'cause I like it nice 00:39:44.68\00:39:47.12 and cold on top of my cereal, so. 00:39:47.15\00:39:49.68 Look at that, your own milk made with cashew nuts. 00:39:49.72\00:39:53.46 That's right. 00:39:53.49\00:39:54.82 Now, you know there are other nuts you can use. 00:39:54.86\00:39:56.39 You can use walnuts in this recipe. 00:39:56.42\00:39:58.66 Now if you use almonds, so almonds are really hard nut. 00:39:58.69\00:40:01.20 And sometimes you kind of have to strain that 00:40:01.23\00:40:02.90 because you don't want that pulp. 00:40:02.93\00:40:04.27 They won't grind all the way. 00:40:04.30\00:40:05.63 But the nice thing about cashews 00:40:05.67\00:40:07.27 and the nice thing about walnuts 00:40:07.30\00:40:08.64 when you're making this milk 00:40:08.67\00:40:10.01 is that you don't have to strain it at all. 00:40:10.04\00:40:11.61 You've got this beautiful milk. 00:40:11.64\00:40:14.08 And when you put in the refrigerator, 00:40:14.11\00:40:15.81 you'll notice that because it doesn't have 00:40:15.84\00:40:17.35 anything to keep it together. 00:40:17.38\00:40:19.05 It will separate a bit. 00:40:19.08\00:40:20.85 Just clink, clink, clink with a spoon, 00:40:20.88\00:40:22.82 and you're ready to serve again. 00:40:22.85\00:40:24.52 So when I have my cereal in the morning, 00:40:24.55\00:40:26.99 I just pour it on my cereal. That's it. 00:40:27.02\00:40:29.22 And you can use this 00:40:29.26\00:40:30.93 for as any kind of recipe in your cooking too. 00:40:30.96\00:40:34.03 Any kind of milk anything 00:40:34.06\00:40:35.40 that calls for milk, you can use this, absolutely. 00:40:35.43\00:40:36.77 Calls for milk, you can use this. 00:40:36.80\00:40:38.27 Oh, wow. Okay. 00:40:38.30\00:40:40.30 We are going to go on to our next recipe. 00:40:40.34\00:40:44.01 So here we go. 00:40:44.04\00:40:45.37 All right, our blueberry-pecan quinoa. 00:40:45.41\00:40:48.44 Sounds good. Okay, Carin, quinoa. 00:41:13.34\00:41:17.21 Tell us what is quinoa and the benefits of quinoa? 00:41:17.24\00:41:20.94 You know actually quinoa is a super food. 00:41:20.98\00:41:23.45 It's a grain... Yes. 00:41:23.48\00:41:25.18 But it's actually a complete protein. 00:41:25.21\00:41:27.75 And that's what makes it so good about quinoa. 00:41:27.78\00:41:30.85 You know, we have about nine essential amino acids 00:41:30.89\00:41:33.39 that our body, they're essential 00:41:33.42\00:41:34.76 because our body doesn't make them. 00:41:34.79\00:41:36.56 So what we need to do 00:41:36.59\00:41:37.93 is we need to take them in with foods. 00:41:37.96\00:41:39.29 Our body makes other essential, excuse me, amino acids. 00:41:39.33\00:41:42.20 But the essential ones, 00:41:42.23\00:41:43.57 the nine we have to get from foods. 00:41:43.60\00:41:45.57 Quinoa is a complete protein. 00:41:45.60\00:41:47.70 It means that it has 00:41:47.74\00:41:49.07 all nine essential amino acids in it. 00:41:49.10\00:41:50.61 You know there is an 00:41:50.64\00:41:51.97 interesting history about quinoa. 00:41:52.01\00:41:53.34 Yes tell us. Yes. Share it. 00:41:53.38\00:41:54.71 Quinoa, I called it a super food. 00:41:54.74\00:41:56.18 In the Incan language, the Indians from Peru 00:41:56.21\00:42:01.18 and down in that area of South America. 00:42:01.22\00:42:04.42 They used to have this 00:42:04.45\00:42:05.79 as it was a staple food in their diet. 00:42:05.82\00:42:07.16 Wow. 00:42:07.19\00:42:08.52 So what happens is, is that the Spaniards came in 00:42:08.56\00:42:10.99 and they order to take over the land 00:42:11.03\00:42:13.46 and take over the countries out there. 00:42:13.50\00:42:15.50 What they did was they wanted to disable the Indians. 00:42:15.53\00:42:17.93 So what they did was 00:42:17.97\00:42:19.30 they burned down all their quinoa, their quinoa. 00:42:19.33\00:42:22.14 And that's what's their staple food. 00:42:22.17\00:42:23.51 So obviously, this debilitated the Indians, the Incas, 00:42:23.54\00:42:27.01 and the Spaniards actually took over. 00:42:27.04\00:42:29.28 But it's interesting because in like the early 70s, 00:42:29.31\00:42:31.55 I think it was, somebody was traveling 00:42:31.58\00:42:34.82 and climbing in the Himalayan Mountains. 00:42:34.85\00:42:37.02 No Himalayan, so I'm sorry, in the Andes Mountains. 00:42:37.05\00:42:38.52 The Andes. 00:42:38.55\00:42:39.89 If they were in the Himalayans, 00:42:39.92\00:42:41.26 they were in a whole different continent. 00:42:41.29\00:42:42.62 They were in the Andes Mountains, 00:42:42.66\00:42:43.99 and when they were there, 00:42:44.03\00:42:45.36 they found this interesting plant, 00:42:45.39\00:42:46.73 and they brought it back. 00:42:46.76\00:42:48.10 And when they found out it was actually quinoa. 00:42:48.13\00:42:49.60 Quinoa was not completely eradicated. 00:42:49.63\00:42:51.63 It was taken away, 00:42:51.67\00:42:53.00 but they were some on the mountains. 00:42:53.03\00:42:54.37 So they were able to then reincorporate it. 00:42:54.40\00:42:56.20 And that's how we get quinoa today. 00:42:56.24\00:42:57.57 Oh, and it's high in protein. Extremely high in protein. 00:42:57.61\00:43:00.08 It's a great completed. This is actually a red quinoa. 00:43:00.11\00:43:03.35 But they have black quinoa, white quinoa, 00:43:03.38\00:43:05.11 there's like, you know, all different colors, 00:43:05.15\00:43:06.82 and nutritionally speaking, they're about the same. 00:43:06.85\00:43:09.32 This is just pretty. So I got the red. 00:43:09.35\00:43:10.89 It's beautiful, beautiful. 00:43:10.92\00:43:12.29 Okay, now let's start this wonderful recipe. 00:43:12.32\00:43:15.32 So again, this is a nice, simple one, all in the pot. 00:43:15.36\00:43:18.23 We're gonna get this started and get that on. 00:43:18.26\00:43:22.33 There we go. 00:43:22.36\00:43:23.70 And we're gonna just pour in our water. 00:43:23.73\00:43:26.13 You have some good history about quinoa. 00:43:26.17\00:43:28.17 Yeah. I didn't know. 00:43:28.20\00:43:29.94 It's amazing what you find out? It's very grainy. 00:43:29.97\00:43:32.04 Yes, well, and it puffs up in a nice way. 00:43:32.07\00:43:34.18 It actually absorbs a lot of water. 00:43:34.21\00:43:35.78 And it makes a nice soft grain. Yes. 00:43:35.81\00:43:39.21 But you know what? 00:43:39.25\00:43:40.58 I use quinoa not just in like a sweet dish 00:43:40.62\00:43:42.75 like this is kind of on the sweeter side 00:43:42.78\00:43:44.29 as a breakfast cereal. 00:43:44.32\00:43:45.65 But you can use it, you know, as a side dish. 00:43:45.69\00:43:47.89 Yes. 00:43:47.92\00:43:49.26 But also even as your protein source, 00:43:49.29\00:43:50.63 I've done things like 00:43:50.66\00:43:51.99 I've stuffed peppers with quinoa. 00:43:52.03\00:43:53.36 Oh, wow.
