Hi Krocks, I’m going to challenge you guys to look into rice...YEP! Rice. You stated in the last video that you didn’t think you could eat rice for two weeks. There are endless types of rice...not just white or brown rice...all tasting a little different including “black rice or known as forbidden rice (because the Chinese Emperor and his family were only allowed to eat it with great taste (this one is low in calories and high in vitamins), long grain with wild rice, jasmine, etc etc.... Add different spices & veggies (like onions, celery, spinach, broccoli, cauliflower etc to the pot and simmer = amazing = every filling too. Look up rice casseroles and also rice with the words “Moroccans, Spanish, Indian, pilaf rice, vegan fried rice, bali Indonesian rice dish etc”. On you tube you can look up vegan rice etc. What’s great about cooking rice is it’s CHEAP, you can buy in bulk & store it for long periods of time and easy to cook. You can cook it in the oven instead of on the stove or in a rice cooker....just put it in a dutch oven or casserole with a lid at 400 for about 20 to 25 mins...or until most of the water is absorbed by the rice and then set on the counter for 5 mins. You can also make a double batch and freeze it for another time, which is a nice way of planning ahead. At the same time in the same pot you can cook your veggies with it. One pot cooking. You can eat stuffed peppers use green peppers vs yellow/red pepper, because they are cheaper and you wont notices the difference in taste. For stuffed peppers (not sure if you can do the Mary’s mini with stuffed peppers?)...clean peppers & cut the top off, then clean out the inside, place the peppers in a large pot of water for about 15 mins or until tender but not falling apart (usually they will turn a little different color and then you know they are done). Prior to making the stuffed peppers I make Moroccan rice in the oven with can tomatoes, onions, mushrooms (can works), spinach, the tops of the peppers you cut off (really any veggies)...then once the peppers are done, take them out of the pot, cool them to handle & stuffed them with the rice, then eat. I like to cook many at one time to have for a few days. Peppers do not freeze well after cooking. So I usually cook rice and then freeze the rice so that when I want stuffed peppers & just have to heat up the rice in the microwave and cook the peppers in the pot. Simple meal but really good. Many videos on you tube. If you Go to the Walmart website and then do a search on “rice”. They have page after page of rice in boxes with spices already or in the bag for you to add your own spices. Cheers to your success!! I’m sure Trader Joe's has a lot of choices too or your local Asian market or International market. If you look in the International section of your grocery store you can find rice spice packets too. Try rice...you might just like it better then potatoes...maybe?!?!

I very much enjoy your channel! You both are so down to earth. Please more recipes.

Have you seen High Carb Hannah's griddler hashbrowns where she puts greens in while cooking?

The nutrional yeast is worth buying. : )

@@nematoaddd Thanks, I guess I'll have to try some...

Hey Mike! NOW nutritional yeast powder is only $7.54 on Amazon (81c per ounce). I use the whole thing in about a month even when I've eaten meat. Adds really great flavor. It's amazing on popcorn.

@@mariarib6504 you can even get it cheaper then that at the grocery store just so you know. : ) I pay $4 or $5 for it. I get it at kroger or trador Joe's or my local health food store.

Nutritional yeast adds plant protein and flavor which is a great way to resist cravings. I actually use the even more whole-food plant-based protein-rich product called Brewer’s Yeast which I order from Swanson’s Vitamins online-very reasonably priced. Give it a try! If anyone ever asks you again “where do you get your protein?” you’ve got that covered. Two tablespoons of brewer’s yeast has about 35gms of whole-food plant-based protein. As much as a steak, but all good for you! Also, brewers yeast is one of the few plant based sources of vitamin B12 which vegans usually need to supplement with. You have to eat a lot of it though for the B12 benefit, so recommend you take a B12 supplement if you are whole-food plant-based. Good luck!

WOW! Congratulations, Sam!

@@jangreen5549 Thanks so much! I'm very excited about this lifestyle!!

So awesome!! Good luck and continued success 😁

@@pda2836 Thank you so much!!

Azathoth Hastur an oven with circulating air

@@SerialBagmakers it's called convection

Thanks for watching :)

Thanks for watching ❤️

Oh my gosh, I also use Better than Bouillon Organic Reduced Sodium Seasoned Vegetable Base - yay! It's so good; it's the only thing I have that contains sugar, but I do love it. I really appreciate that you leave the skins on the potatoes, too :)

Bob Bush how do you make your potatoes in the Instant Pot? I would love your recipe, if you don’t mind sharing.

Let us know how it goes! 😀

Thank you very much! 😀

Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks Lisa!! He is :)

It is so tasty!

I didn't know that was a thing either until Brian was making them Lol... now it all makes sense!

Mashed potatoes for life ❤️

Thank you!! ❤️

Thank you ❤️

Yeah, it's funny to us as well. 😀 Fortunately, the number of dislikes is always low and the number of likes is always high thanks to people like you. 😀 -Brian

😀Let us know how it goes! 😀

@@KrocksInTheKitchen It was delish! Made enough for leftovers and I am so glad I did! Will make often!

Mashed potatoes and peas.....mmmmmmmmm

Now I want peas!! :)

Mashed potatoes & sauerkraut.👍😍

@@donnahummer1732 I'm gonna try this as soon as I figure out how to get sauerkraut jar open...

note to self: splash of Tabasco and dah or so paprika to liquid. Sounds like mashed potatoes for days. Yummmm

Thank you for commenting! 😀

:) :) :) xo

Yesss! Mashed potatoes for every meal! LOL

So tomorrow I'm making the mash potato again and this time I'm going to dry fry some chestnut mushrooms and maybe something else to make it more breakfasty. I took leftover mash from this morning in the car with me to get me through the day. I will get organised, because missing my lunch means stuffing my face with rubbish as soon as I get home!

@@KrocksInTheKitchen I just started Mary's Mini and had the mashed potatoes (which included onions, garlic and carrots) today, but ended up mixing them all up with my giant mixed salad which had pickled cucumber, carrot, tomatoes, celery and radishes for a dressing. Odd combination, but it sure tastes good with a side dish of cauliflower and broccoli (and fake cheese sauce). I can't WAIT to try the hash browns (have to make them by hand and use my stovetop). 🌹

Ooh we haven't tried that one!

I thought so. 😂 -Brian

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
