100% agree, going vegan, has nothing to do with not wanting the flavours/texture/taste. I just don't want to pay to hurt an animal. So some alternatives are amazing. And your recipes are some of the best 💚💚💚

I woke up one morning with the words clearly spoken, ‘You wouldn’t do it to your cat, so why do you do it to other animals?’ That’s enough for me. Love your vlogs. Great recipes.

Thank you so very much for saying that if your reasons for going vegan are ethical, craving the texture, etc of meat isn’t a factor. Perfect answer to people who say “well, if you want meat so much…”.

Maddie, I like your attitude on this video. Who cares what other people think about the title of your video or about what you eat and why? Live and let live 😘

Before I went veggie at 12 (and eventually vegan) I HATED meat. But now as a vegan I love meat replacements. I know some vegans don't and that's fine but some do and that's fine too ✌🏻

Here's a tip. The actual paper in the just roll box, is baking paper. Saves using more baking paper 👍

I love how real and humble you’ve always been 💜 as we say “close to the heart”

I don’t crave meat, but I did like chicken sandwiches so I’m glad there is an alternative to that. it can be harder to make full complete meals. Love your recipes! So glad veggies and beans can make so many alternatives.

That could be a title if a new book! Make it Meaty Vegan!!! Xxxxxx

Your channel was recommended to me for the first time today, even though I have been vegan for over 7 years. I have bookmarked these recipes. I am especially intrigued by the unsausage rolls and the fried chicken. You have a new subscriber.

Maddie, the red headband combined with the red lippie just frames your face perfectly and is so very flattering. Love the recipes too ❤

Best cooking video ever Maddie thank you. I’ve made your sausage rolls and love them. Tofu is so so versatile. How anyone could say they don’t like it means they’re not using it properly. Non vegans love to say “why do vegans want to eat meat alternatives” 😅they just cannot understand that millions of people haven’t gone vegan because they don’t like meat (some do obviously) but it’s beyond their comprehension how people could give up eating animals for the sake of the animals primarily and the planet and health. It’s such ignorance and really is getting old 🙄

You gotta push the white clips over into the middle section of the tofuture press until they click - this puts more tension on the elastics and gets way more water out!

Madeleine I really really obsessed with your vlogs so so much you are my truly truly inspiration and I wish you have a wonderful wonderful week ahead🥹🥹🥹💖💖💖

Love your book! 😊

Just so love the cooking videos, thank you 🙏❤️

This was a fun video! I love the creativity

All the recipes look sooo gooooood 🤤

Love this idea!! 🌟

I just added these three recipes to my list of meals to cook this week - very excited to see how they'll turn out, but I'm sure they will be delicious 🥰😋 I just love your attitude and mindset, this is the best ay to encourage people to consume more plants without judging or admonesting them for the way they eat ❤

Oh my, these look amazing. I've bought your recipe book and can't wait to try these ❤

LOVE ALL YOUR FOOD AND COOK BOOKS! ALL THE WAY FROM MIAMI XOXO💛💛💛

Ohmygod thank u so much i ll definitivly try the first recepy tonight i have everything !

I saw your cookbook in a book shop in Tasmania before I even found your KZfaq channel! love your videos so much and your style too, you are very pretty. Great job on the food thank you so much for sharing!

Hi Maddie I recently bought your book and am slowly working my way through it. We are newbie vegans and are loving this journey! We had your meatballs last night with spaghetti and they were delicious. I've just ordered some vital gluten and will be giving this a go! Thank you for the inspirational videos. I'm an ex pat living in Australia and used to holiday in your area so it's lovely seeing your beautiful cottage and garden ❤ definitely going to have a go at Alex's bread too! Thank you from Aussie ❤

Been loving the food videos lately Maddy🎉🎉🎉🎉

My mouth is watering....looks so delisious

I have been watching since you made your uni videos, a long time. You just don't change, still so humble, ooze kindness and like someone id love to be friends with! These recipes look so yummy!

Loved this video and liked your 3 different looks as well! Would love to have someone in the family who cooks like you, I would be at their house A LOT! :D

Loved this. Makes vegan food so easy, I have the book and was planning to make the meatball sub this week so now I can follow along!

These recipes look soooo delicious!! Can't wait to try them

Honestly, I would be the size of a house if I could cook like you! Delicious looking food every time. Very best wishes for good health and happiness to you🌱

I've made the unsausage rolls today and we've scoffed them all already. So incredibly easy & tasty. I've ordered more pastry to make more of them

Also I have had gluten flour in the cupboard for soooo long but been too scared to make seitan but your simple recipe has convinced me to do it soon! So thank you for that.

Love this! 💚🐾🌱 Vegan for over 16 years now, and I don't miss meat, like I don't think about it, but I did enjoyed it and love meat replacements 😋 Seitan, tofu, and different store bought, especially made from soy and seitan 😋😋😋😋 Thanks for sharing and I hope people are not to hard on you ♡♡ Love from Johanne, Norway 🇳🇴

Maddie, great music in the background, classy!! Those recipes look so delicious! 😋

This was such a fun video! Well done ! Recipes look so delicious. I’m gonna have to give them a try. Especially the black bean meatballs 😊❤

Definitely making black bean unmeatballs this weekend! Yummy 😋

I made the black bean meatballs when I first got the book, made a huuuge batch to freeze and last a long time. I ate them all in a week for every meal bcs they were so good!!!

Going to try the bean balls next. Just made the spinach and butter bean soup. It was really good ❤. Have a great week everyone!❤❤

I love the "meatballs." They were one of the first recipes I made from your book!! Yummy!! 🥰

Thanks Madeline for these recipes. They all look so yummy. I have been vegan for 7 years now and you are one of my favorite KZfaqrs. Ordering your cookbook now ❤

I really enjoyed this video... thank you... I decided to go vegetarian at 5! My mum was very supportive, but she had three other meat eating kids to feed so often she would do them a meat option- bolognese and for me she would do the same but with "vegetarian" mince.. i grew up that way! I dont understand when people get so extra about the word "vegetarian meat/vegan meat" why does it matter!!!! I am so happy that i am now 30 and havent eaten meat since 5, it really gives me happiness and my conscience feels good.. my italian husband and i, and our two children are vegan now.. i really appreciate video's and recipes like this.. my kids and my husband really feel satisfied with this food! ❤ dont worry about the plebs who feel the need to be pathetic! Thanks for your work!!!! ❤ Jaz (in sunny Sicily!)

We just love your book x theses recipes are favourites in our house xxx 😍 not used Seitan

We made the No Butter Chicken from your cookbook this week and 10/10 outstanding!

Thanks for the video! :)

The title is perfect!

Thank you for this. I initially went plant based because anytime I ate meat, I would have digestive issues later…and it didn’t matter if I cooked it or I ate at a restaurant. I had already been lactose intolerant for about 30 years so it wasn’t that much harder to remove the rest of the animal products from my diet. Looking for different recipes from various vegan channels, I’ve been introduced to the lovely Earthling Ed, so animal welfare and environment have become reasons for further cementing my reasons for not cheating and eating animal products again. But with all that said, yes I miss burgers and nuggets, so these recipes are much appreciated. Also I continue to giggle when you show your cookbook reviews and my love letter to you about measurements keeps being shown.

It is always good to know that behind every food craving is a reason. You crave it because it is what your body needs. As a vegan of course you do not want to eat meat. So why do we crave meat? You are not eating enough protein. It could also be iron-deficiency. Or B12 deficiency. Or a zinc deficiency. Lack of omega-3. Not eating enough calories. Muscle wasting. You are started to sport more. For example I crave chicken liver once in a while. Then I know to look up chicken liver and search what it contains and I know that the body is in need of those nutrients as these are found in chicken livers and if I would eat them my body knows that it will get what it needs. Cravings are always good to listen to and follow up. I also recommend to include all the taste in your diet as a lack in the 6 taste can also create a craving. I recommend to take chlorella and spirulina as a vegan. Spirulina contains iron, chromium and vitamin A. Chlorella contains vitamin B12, vitamin A and iron. A B-complex is also recommended. It is not simply as a vegan that when you crave meat to make something that represents something that looks like meat its taste, texture or flavours, there is a deeper meaning behind it. Putting limitations on your diet has as consequence that you can easily miss out in nutrients. Eat an organic, freshly cooked, seasonal diet and as colourful as possible. Make it count! The whole year you will need to adjust your diet. Eating well and being honest with yourself is a key. If you change your lifestyle, your diet also need to be changed accordingly. A vegan diet is not always automatically a healthy diet. Good luck everyone with meat cravings. Plantbased foods are always better as we do not want to bring any suffering to our companions in this lovely world.

I was excited by the title! Im not vegan but dont eat beef or pork and I do crave beef at certain times of the month...but it's not my brain thats craving it, it's my body wanting the extra iron. So it's quite helpful having some simple alternatives to got to! Thank you!!

A cookie scoop works great to divide the meatball mix equally and less mess

Thank you, this looks delicious! I'm still on a 'Cheese journey' and I've tried the Applewood one 9/10! The best and most surprising one so far though... Philadelphia! I honestly can't tell the difference and I stir it into enchilada fillings before wrapping and lots of other things too ❤ Thank you for your easy to follow recipes, I think your videos are fantastic x

Thanks for all the tasty recipes. Chickpea and veg curry on the menu here tonight. Have you tried Vego bars? Our favourite vegan choc by a long way. Asda stocks the 150g bar. £2.95... so good!

Shredded jackfruit (I use canned) in barbecue sauce on rolls makes a great alternative to pulled pork rolls. Chopped walnuts cooked on the stove top with onions & mushrooms and flavored with taco seasoning makes a great hamburger taco filling alternative.🤗

Yes veganism is nothing to do with not liking the taste of non vegan food. I don't crave meat only vegan food. Another awesome video Madeleine with lots of good 😋 vegan plant based food and recipes. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕 Madeleine & ❤ Alex.

My fav thus far is the one with butter chicken and brownies with biscoff

I'm not vegan, but I bought Make It Vegan for my friend who is because all your recipes look so simple and mouthwatering! -from the US

Where did you get your inspiration when first going vegan? What are your go to inspirations for vegan food (other than your cookbooks) thank you x

Loved them! Inspirin...will make them all! Of course is nothing to do w the taste of meet...but the impact on animals, the environment, and your health

I wonder if we crave meat especially when we are low protein / low iron. It could be our bodies telling us to ramp those things up. Really enjoy your channel :) Wondering if you've announced your cookbook winners yet btw? Still hoping I might be selected

Just found you through a suggestion on KZfaq. Loved this video and the recipes. Can you tell me please did you use a whole can of black beans in the first recipe? I would love to try this thank you.

The only thing I sometimes crave is eggs. I make tofu scramble and use black salt, but the texture is so hard to replicate😵‍💫

Good recipe

I actually love the title. I really stopped eating meat, because i never liked it very much and because of health reasons, also because i really do feel sorry for the animals who go through all the cruelty. We get a great vegan meat substitute,they use peas or seitan. I can' eat soya,tofu as i am allergic to that and to many other things. Very nice and delicious video,thank you😊❤. I really think, you would be a wonderful friend to have a wonderful vegan meal with. Have a lovely weekend❤🏡😊 . Where can i find the recipes,they look soooo yummy😊

I definitely find that the abundance of meat and dairy alternatives available today has helped me stay vegan for the past four years. It's great that we have these options, in addition to whole plant foods of course! P.S. that meatball sub looks unreal!

So I need to make those sausage rolls imediatly!!!!!

exactly! I love this, I don't like it when some individual vegans claim it's disgusting to want anything that resembles meat! I like meat, that's not the issue. i'm not vegan but i love vegan food and do vegan food a lot

I definitely be looking at making the seitan. Do you have any recipes for a vegan fish alternatives? Thanks.

i'm so trying these

Nomnomnom 🌱💕

I have always been veggie since a child and I'm not too fond of the taste of manufactured plant based meat alternative options so your plant recipes are fantastic full of flavour and full of nutrition for someone on the road the plant-based recipe is ideal as everything is in the cupboard and easy to store and lot cheaper too

I don't miss meat as much as I miss the things that meat goes in! So finding substitutes is great. Do you find that these reheat well? I always find that fake meats and even tofu can turn kind of hard and dry when reheated.

Loved this! And as a vegan of 9 years, it gets so boring when people say "why do vegans try and replicate meat, when they don't eat it, what is the point" And you're right, the point is, most of us grew up eating animals, and liked the taste, but when you realise how awful the process is, why would you want to pay others to kill animals to eat, when you can eat so many other things, that taste really good!! I was a huge meat eater, but also loved animals, and the older I got, the more I realised what a hypocrite I was being, as would never harm an animal or want them to die for me to eat. So easy to be vegan now, and your recipes prove that!

Just thought if this idea, if you have a potato ricer, cut the block in half, put in ricer and GENTLY squeeze, enough pressure to squeeze the water out, but not hard enough to squeeze it through. Would anyone try it, to see if it works, as I don’t eat tofu.

Hi Maddie! I want to try all of these recipes!! I cannot seem to find the link to the "flour" you used to make seitan, could you reshare it please?

Have you read the book ‘ultra processed people’? Worth a read and would deffo be cool to do a vid on what you think of the book :) x

Very very tasty recipe 🎉❤ kalpana and piry black

Im not vegan, but i have definitely started to add more vegan meals because everything you make looks so delicious. Also, i love this video, because i love meat but i don't want to eat all the time- cost and environmental reasons. I laughed when i read the title 😂

You could definitely use the setan and make a chicken Parmesan pasta!

Hello what is jesa paste ? I don't find the trad in french ?

Note to self: Tomato pasta/spag + mockmeat/tofu

Wow ❤I loved all of the recipes.. I'm not vegan or vege but I love the look of all of them.. If people are triggered, bad luck 😊 loved the title of the vid

Im guilty of being that vegetarian that stopped eating meat primarily because I disliked the taste of it. That said, I love the taste of most processed mock meats and am actively trying to move towards a more self-made or “whole food” approach where I can because of how much of them I eat. When you’ve been junk food veggie for so long, it’s tough thinking about how to eat in a more balanced way that makes use of the nutrients that are inherent to our foods

I've been vegetarian since 1992. I aspire to being plant based, but that's much harder. But I ate meat for 29 years because I didn't know any better. If I had never thought of meat as food, (which it isn't) I would never have known what it tasted like and never missed it. At this point I just eat the meat alternatives for variety. Cheese on the other hand is a really big problem if your trying to be vegan/plant based... 🙂

Anyone triggered by your video should simply click away - simple as that. Thank you for these amazing recipes. I will definitely try some of them.

👍👍👍👍👍

Pofta buna ❤❤❤

and how many black beans ?

No worries concerning the title - I loved meat too. And dairy.I still crave both and indulge in fake products when I just have to eat “meat” again. It always satisfies.

JUSTICE FOR ANIMALS💚💚💚

Only on the first receipt so glad you are making from scratch and not using meat lookalike protest stuff I may get you book as dairy free I have to go vegan

well, fuck me. those unsausage rolls look like a blessing from the lord himself

xox

I will watch this...but I have never once craved meat... Vegan for 14 years...

I reallly dislike that some vegans/vegetarians gatekeep the lifestyle. Like, shouldn’t we be applauding anyone that is becoming more conscientious of how they’re food consumption effects the world??

*'Plant food is underrated..

You crave meat because your body needs meat! Listen to it!

so you used to eat meat, what about dairy consumption, its not bad if you youself domesticate cow and her calf

It's funny, I've been vegetarian for most of my life as I don't want to eat animals. Thus, I have never experienced a craving for meat.

I just buy a pack of vegan sausages and scoff the lot. 😂
