I love how gracious and polite you are with each other, and with people in general. My husband and I are still that way after 40 years. It never gets old (even if we have).

I love when Crystal is on the videos♥️ you guys make a really cute couple! also the cats are lovely🥰🥰🥰😍

Yoooooooo that split jump that Crystal did. Let’s GOOO! 🔥

You two are so uplifting. Thank you so much for what you do!

That really WAS a fun day! Thanks for bringing us along!

Y’all are hands down the most adorable couple on KZfaq.

There could never be too much kitty footage. They are so precious.

You and Crystal are two of the healthiest looking people I've ever seen....and you have a great vibe together. Love your idea of tahini and balsamic glaze for a quick dressing and can't wait to try your newest tofu recipe!

That trampoline place looks so fun & no one was there. The cafe was cute too. It's nice seeing you guys out.

You promised me skate clips over a year ago in a comment, and today you delivered! Back D like it was nothing!! We need more! You embody the new age skate mentality: health and fitness, not partying and drugs. Good stuff my man :)

Haha, you got me with the watermelon-radish hybrid story! You and Crystal are amazing together, love your couple vibe.

Derrick. You are a sweetheart. In all of your vids you come off as kind and respectful. I’m sure you are a kind human. And your recipes are terrific to boot!! I hope you have 1 M subscribers soon.

your videos are like a digital resting place! the bond between you and Crystal always puts a smile on my face. your recipes are amazing, but the beautiful energy here is even better!

SOOOO love videos like this! Chinese 5 Spice: anise seed, fennel, cinnamon, black pepper, cloves. Also, that Nona's Balsamic Glaze? Dude! That stuff is the bomb! I always drizzle the tiniest amount (a little goes a long way!) on my salads and it totally takes them to another level! So good to see you two. You're both looking so healthy and happy! xo

Amazing to see you jumping! So fun guys! Thank you for your beautiful energy! 😘🙏💜💜💜

Five spice is a blend of star anise, cloves, cinnamon, Sichuan peppercorns and fennel seeds. Thank you, Derek and Crystal. I love all your videos, guys.

Derek, you are so inspirational and humble. I truly appreciate you and the motivation you give me and I bet many many others to continue enjoying a plant based diet and stay fit. 💕

There's something magical about combining bananas with nut butters. 😋

Y’all fixed my day again. ✌️positive vibes to everyone!

I love seeing y'all together!! You both compliment each other well. Thank you for sharing your stories, adventures, lives and especially your recipes!! You're both so inspiring to me to eat a healthier diet 💖 Do you have a physical copy of your recipe book available? I'd love to gift them to friends and family!

I always enjoy your videos a lot. A few comments: I had never heard of fava-bean tofu, but I did a search and found the maker - Big Mountain - and learned that they also make a *smoked* fava-bean tofu. I'm getting some of each. On their website, they note that fava-bean tofu contains substantially more protein than soybean tofu. - Also, I've been eating tofu more lately because I got a tofu press for my birthday. I have always used stacking heavy things on tofu to press it - heavy skillet, or a dish with cans of food as weights or whatever. I find the tofu press (I got a TofuBud tofu press) *much* better: takes up less room, does a better job, can pop it into the refrigerator to press overnight, etc. I like it a lot. - One trick to get tofu to take up marinade better: freeze the tofu. After thawing in the fridge, squeeze it gently over the sink and the water gushes out of it. It then will soak up marinade like a sponge. - One nice thing about a plant-based diet: you can use leftover marinade as a sauce, as you did. That would be a very bad idea if you had been marinating chicken or pork or beef.... - I always refrigerate potatoes after I roast them because that makes the starch resistant (so that it acts as dietary fiber and is not quickly digested, something important for us diabetics and not a bad idea for others). Even better, I have been fermenting (raw) potatoes - they are 100% resistant starch: zero net carbs. - Have you tried purple potatoes (purple flesh, not just skin)? Much more nutritious than white or yellow potatoes. We have Stokes Purple® in stores here. They tend to be long and skinny, and after they've chilled, I eat them as finger food. They're sweet and occupy the same snack niche as bananas (but *much* more nutritious - try them on your peanut-butter and toast thing :).

Derek you should try bouldering, your callisthenics would make you a good climber and you’re a natural problem solver

I've been smiling the whole time of the video, you both totally spread good vibes, especially the part with the morning stretches is so fun, you are a very cute couple (and the kitties are adorable!)

Always love seeing your cooking of course, and it was nice seeing you and Crystal go to the jump place and the cafe too! Always love your nature clips as well, which I'm sure we'll see more of this summer :) Thank you for sharing!

That little cat door in the window is so cute 😊

I'm literally having a Cara-Cara orange as I watch this! 😄 I agree they really are the best! Its as if an orange and a grapefruit had a love baby. I like your little rhyme too! 😆

If you are looking for an awesome all plant based restaurant Eve Olive in Nanaimo on Rutherford Rd is amazing. They make "Calamari" out of oyster mushrooms that is phenominal. It can be pricey cuz you want to try everything. Lol. My go to for a treat outing. The greek platter is fabulous. They make their own feta and tzatziki.

Hey Derek :)! I just wanna let you know that I really really appreciate your videos :) Incorporating more and more of your meals make me feel so amazing and happy, thanks. Have a great day

Oh man, I'm drooling! Those oranges and the watermelon radish look amazing!! I'll have to look for them in my town. 😋

You two are so cute together. Thanks for making your videos. It's fun to see you both now going out and making videos of things you are doing aka setting a good example of "healthy lifestyle" changes people can do together. Keep it up! Oh my word, after you said the radish was crossed with a watermelon, I literally said out loud "no way" thinking that was so cool/weird, then you continued and I just had to laugh.

Been so busy with life. Finally got to watch a video after so long and it was so rejuvenating. Thanks Derek!

That trampoline place looked super cool, and your meals looked bomb. 😍🌱 Appreciate you guys!! 🙏💪✌️

When the title displays "Delicious Food!" and it's ACTUALLY NOT clickbait! Love it!

Brings a smile to my face watching you two. 😅 The food looks great too. Good to wash the lettuce and watermelon, and everything for that matter 😂

Your ebook recipes rock. Love the way you liven up your cooking show! You even make those workouts look doable 👏👏

You two and your cats are adorable 🥰 What a fun day out plus delicious food ✌️❤️

Loved watching the trampoline fun! Will have to try that orange ginger marindade - looks good and so easy. Watermelon radish is a kind of daikon radish. Not hybrid, it's an heirloom variety. They are so pretty in a salad!

All the food looked DELICIOUS! Love the cat content too 😻 We have three cats.. Two of them are adventurous and will walk on leash with my family. The other one hides from her own shadow, but damn she's sweet when she wants the attention. 😂

Loved seeing you guys doing a little acroyoga in the early morning stretch--bird pose for the win!

I really love this! So much fun, you two and the cats are just beautiful together ❤️❤️🐈🐈

I love the mild flavor of watermelon radish and wish they were more readily available.

Your videos are totally addictive!! I love your creativity!!

Cara Cara oranges easily became my favorite when I first went vegan a few years ago.... soooo good!

Yes, I am always enteretained and nourished!

Okay but stretching with your partner in the morning is such a good idea! I want to steal that idea!

Haven't tuned in for a while, crystal is looking so much better.

Yes, Cara Cara are definitely the BEST! 😋

Hey man, just discovered your channel after my mother in-law suggested it. I have been a life long High meat protein, clean carb, and veggie guy, but at 41 it has caught up with me. I just had a wellness check and my blood work showed my cholesterol was at 230 and my BP at 140/80. Decided it was time to try something else to reverse my results. I'm looking forward to scanning your channel for meal recipes and prep ideas. This is all new to me, but excited for the journey. Thank you for sharing your knowledge .

Best vegan content out there. ⭐

Thanks for bringing such positive vibes to every video you make! You always leave me in a good headspace :)

I really enjoy your workout and your jolly temper in whatever you do. Thanks, also for the tasty recipes that you assemble every time.

I love the vlogs where we get to see you guys out and about! Looks like it was such a fun day 😊

All the foods looked yummy. Lunch & Dinner 😋 You and Crystal are awesome!!!!!

This was so much fun to watch! 😍

So fun!! I love you guys!🤩

Great meal ideas! ❤️ looks like you two had a great day together ❤️ thanks for Sharing

Love the energy and the good vibes. Great day of eating 💪🏼

This 100% is inspiring me to hit the trampoline park today haha - you always make exercise look so fun!!

The food from that cafe looks like something you would make!!

That bowl is so beautiful 💜💚 You cook so good, I am surprised u want to EVER go out to eat.

You create the most beautiful food! I love your videos…especially when Crystal joins you!

I love how you two compliment amd support one another. It is genuine and the two of you work so well together. I am definitely impressed bynthe slip jump.

Love love love today’s Video xoxo. ❤❤❤

Fun video sprinkled with a helpful full day of eating. I also enjoyed the grocery haul. Molly

Umm, hello! Fun and so yum! Great day for you both.

Lovely video! So nice to see you both having a blast! Love Chinese Five Spice and growing watermelon radishes is so fun! They are delicious! Thanks for the inspiration!

We enjoyed the video it was nice to see you all with the cats. The food looks sooo good and colorful.

Love the videos. It‘s so funny that organic stuff in canada is packed again in plastic and the bell peppers looked so perfect. Here in Germany organic vegetables have weird shapes. 😀 I always pick the „ugly“ vegetables so they don‘t get left over in the grocery stores

Loved the entire video! You both are awesome!

appreciate the recipes and ideas for meals. Cara cara oranges are the best! and always enjoy coming along for the ride in your beautiful area ... thanks for sharing
