    I think this will be my main dish for Thanksgiving (unless I decide to make my vegan moussaka...or shepherd's pie)! What are you cooking for the holidays?

      I made your moussaka for thanksgiving last year along with the sumac salad from the 3 hour thanksgiving video, everyone loved it! Can't wait to try this recipe. I'm gonna try it with my favorite soy milk I typically use for bechemel, the unsweetend Silk brand.

    I am going through chemo and finding satisfying foods that aren’t acidic and won’t hurt my mouth has been such a challenge. This recipe was a bit of work but wow, it is so heavenly! It feels so festive and comforting and is the perfect thing for my solo chemo Thanksgiving. Thank you for your culinary inspiration and all that you do. I have shared the recipe with many people.

    The green part of leeks is absolutely edible. It's a lot less hard than kale for example! And once cooked it's as soft as the white. Just cook it altogether and it's delicious

    I just made this, following all steps. I cannot say enough, it is sooo good! My husband loved it, and so did I… this is a keeper. I saved it my list. THANK you !!! Please keep it casual and including your silly moments we all love it… 😂😊

    This was the first Rainbow Plant Life recipe I attempted…
    …and then I was sold from then on!
    Made this last month. Still a family favorite. 😋
    Can’t wait to try the updated version. Love leeks.

    • @Melanie-jy2nw
      @Melanie-jy2nw 4 месяца назад

      I’m thinking of trying it out but is this a really long dish to make or one that you can easily make during the week?

    • @_Oscar326
      @_Oscar326 3 месяца назад

      @@Melanie-jy2nw - It can be done mid-week but you can save yourself some headache by making the tofu ricotta on the weekend. I feel it gets better the longer it sits.
      I have also stuffed the shells and refrigerated them in a dish for a day.
      Make the beschemel (sp?) sauce the day of and pour on before baking.

    Awesome, can’t wait to try. I’m not a vegetarian even, but I love making your recipes. About half the week now your dinners, family loves them. The Moroccan dish is amazing!! Eating leftover bolognese now, can’t believe it. Thank you!! I’m eating 50% vegan, mind blowing, lol. My girls love them as well. You are making this dad look good, thanks!!

  • @annab3202
    @annab3202 6 месяцев назад +5

    This looks amazing! Personally, I find leeks easier and faster to clean before you slice them. If you cut it in half lenghtwise, you can separate the layers a little with your fingers and wash away any dirt under running water

  • @wayofjuniper

    i've never heard anyone say that you can't eat the green parts of the leek, they're very commonly used in cooking here (germany) and in fact i think it's the best part xD
    guess it's time to mash some pumpkin because i've never seen pumpkin puree sold here

    There’s so many things I love about this channel. For starters your personality jumps off the screen as do your flavors and creativity with the dishes. Many people agree, it’s really fun to watch you but even more fun to impress my family with the skills you’ve taught! But what takes the cake is the comments section.. it’s just filled with positive remarks and exchanges of appreciation for your craft. Legit a zero hate zone, so hard to find now a days. Thanks for creating this safe space I am so excited to keep impressing my fam! Thanks Nisha!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

  • @Cora.T
    @Cora.T 6 месяцев назад

    I usually wash leek by cutting it in half lengthways and then running it under the tap and making sure the water gets between all the layers, while holding the leek at an angle with the root end at the top

  • @phillipjoseph
    @phillipjoseph 5 месяцев назад

    Alternatively, you can cut the leek length-wise and rinse under cold running water flaring back the layers to release dirt. Then chop and dry

    You can cut the leek lengthwise in half and then hold it together at the white end and rinse the layers under water. Drain and cut how you like it. Btw. Now i'm hungry for this delicious looking dish❤
