- We loved making a What We Eat in a Day Video last time, so we thought we’d make another one! I've loved figuring out how to make vegan food over our van life travels. The limitations are a challenge, and I think we're getting better and better!
Our favorite dish to make for a while now has been pad thai, and I've figured out how to make an awesome vegan version (I don't promise that it's authentic, though). Let me know if you try it!

RECIPES:
Oatmeal Recipe:
1 1/2 cup of oats
2 1/2 cups of water
1 chopped apple
1 tbls. of peanut butter
5-6 chopped dates
1/4 cup of chia seeds
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup coconut sugar
Add everything together and cook until thick. We served it with cacao nibs on top.
Pad Thai Recipe:
1 package of rice pad thai noodles
1 package of very firm tofu
1 onion
1 bell pepper
4-5 green onions
2/3 cup soy sauce
2/3 cup water
1/3 cup brown or coconut sugar (can substitute agave)
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1/3 cup tahini
1 tbls. red or green curry paste
1 tbls. sesame oil
1 lime
(optional) sesame seeds or crushed peanuts
Cook the noodles as instructed by the package.
Cook tofu in a frying pan with a splash of olive oil and soy sauce. I usually cook these until crispy.
After tofu is finished, add chopped onion, chopped bell pepper, and chopped green onions to the tofu. Cook until onion is translucent.
While that is cooking, make the sauce. Mix soy sauce, water, sugar, rice vinegar, tahini, curry paste, sesame oil, and lime juice.
When tofu and vegetables are finished cooking, add cooked rice noodles, then pour the sauce over the top. Cover and let simmer for 5-10 minutes. Serve with an extra lime on the side and some sesame seeds or crushed peanuts on top!

I never thought of putting avocado and hummus together. Genius.
Literally it's the best
My favourite #vanlife couple!!! You both are so inspirational and real about what van life is actually like. I'd love to design my van exact or very similar to yours. If you are ever in Toronto please please please make a warning video before you come and please have a meet up thingy so i can see my first converted van irl. Keep the videos coming i appreciate them and you both ☺️
You're so sweet! We would LOVE to make it up to Toronto for sure! Please tell me you've checked out Eamon & Bec's channel?? They're our van friends based out of Toronto. They're hanging with us in Vancouver right now, but you should totally start following them if you haven't already! Here's their channel: ruclips.net/channel/UC4laAHbk8VSgmvB47tsd2XQ
Minimal Millennials omg yes i found them not too long ago and already am subbed to their channel. Seeing people from my own city that have made the van life dream happen was shocking and i was so proud haha. I just watched your insta story and saw them on it. Happy you guys found each other and i hope they've told you cool things about Toronto that will encourage your visit.
Cute down to earth couple. All of the food looked delicious.
Thank you!!
I love that you can stand up in your van
to soften avocados overnight, put them in a paper bag w a banana or apple. they perfectly ripen with the avocados w the ethylene gas the banana/apple produces
I'll definitely give that a try!
Made the pad Thai for supper tonight, it was amazing! Thank you for the awesome recipe and the awesome videos! Keep em coming!👏🏼🙌🏽
Aww thank you!! It is so much fun and totally unexpected to me that you guys are actually trying the recipes!! So glad you liked that dish - it is our go to.
solo entiendo el 10% de lo que dicen pero me gusta verlos, en unos meses aprendo inglés y los disfrutaré aún más. Saludos desde México
You guys are hysterical!
Wonderful video! I'm a new subscriber and am absolutely obsessed lol Keep up the good work!
Aww man thank you!! I'm so glad you're here :D
I'm a new fan. Love your channel! Been binge-watching it lately. Keep up with the great quality and inspiring lifestyle updates! 💚
Wow thank you!! So glad you're here :)
I've literally never found a RUclips channel I actually like, until today when I found y'all! I am binging on your videos!! I used to live in a van and live in an RV now, and LOVE it!
You should do overnight oats! No fuel needed
Ah yes you're so right! I've tried that once before and keep forgetting to try again. Thank you!
Minimal Millennials love them with blueberries and brown sugar!
Poirier Bears yes! We love overnight oats!
I do overnight oats with almond milk and berries. With the berries you don’t need to add a sweetener :)
Exactly what I wanted to say!!
that last recipe looked dope.
because i’m obsessed with peanuts I’ll probably add some as well.
Thank you!! I would definitely recommend adding peanuts. We can't top it with crushed peanuts because Christian is allergic :(
💚 Great cooks!!! It’s so awesome to see more vegan Van Lifers. I’m on my fifth converted van. I tow a TT as a mobile office, but ditch it and take my van for days and weeks at a time. Hope to meet you on the trail.
The Pad Thai looks delicious 😍😋
Ahh thank you!! I'd be lying if I said we didn't eat that at least once a week 😂
I wouldn't blame ya
You guys are legit like the cutest couple 😍 and I’m obsessed with your van it seems like the perfect little home! (: love your guys videos!
haha you're so sweet thanks friend :)
“I’m the god of my tofu town , I can do what I wish with my peasants” lmao I’m dying😂😂😂
I love your bowls/plates! I would love to see a minimalist kitchen tour in your van! you guys are so cute.
I'll keep that in mind!!
1st time watchinng and love the cooking..cant wait to travel along see places and eat vegan with both of u..❤
This is the first video of yours I watched but like... sending 🤙 with the loud effect in iMessage is my favorite thing ever and I subscribed because of that.
Literally will always send that emoji with the loud effect now. 😆 So glad to have you along too!
Literally all of their food loks incredible and I want it.
I just ordered the fill set of sauces from yellowbird for my husband and he freaking loves the stuff. Thank you so much for the tip! I mentioned that I heard about yellowbird from you guys. Love you guys so much. Keep living the happy, healthy, loving life!
Amazing!! We loveeeee yellowbird :)
Tip with the pad thai add beansprouts!! Beansprouts are soo good!
The bowls are so cool
"Tofu is illegal there" 😂😂
Allie Jensen that got me
That lil mix at 4:55 👍👍👍
GUYS! I just found you and watched a few of your videos and now you’re cooking my favorite- pad thai! 😍
You are amazing! So resourceful!
Woot woot! Pad thai lovers 🙌
I made the Pad Thai for dinner tonight and it’s sooooooooo good. Thank you thank you thank you for this recipe 💟💟💟 having it written out in the description was very helpful btw!! Love you guys
Oh my gosh that's SO awesome!! I'm so glad you liked it :)
Yeah Vancouver, BC!!❤️❤️I just discovered you guys and you are/were just where I live! Love your videos
Aww thanks!
It's so weird to see youtubers in my city Vancouver! I used to work on the street you guys had donuts on. Hopefully it the weather gets better for you guys!
So cool! Do you have any other good recommendations?
I lovedddd this! Your videos are so real and interesting, 11/10 will keep watching
You're SO sweet, I'm so glad to have you along!
I just made the Pad Thai (with a few little tweaks) and oh my god it was amazing! Thanks for showing how easy it is to be vegan. I'm hoping to be a vanlifer someday too :)
Awesome! It is honestly so fun to hear when people try it. So glad you liked it!
This legit looks fun!!!
Great video. :) And so exciting you're in Vancouver and that Johannes made an appearance! 🍁
I love the good vibes🤙🏽
Guysssssss I just found your channel I’m in love!!!!
Aww thank you! We're so glad to have you along!
that locak guy is so adorable 🙂😂
Thanks for the yellow bird recommendation! I always see it at sprouts but have never committed.
Totally try it!! It's our favorite, for sure.
Have you tried agave instead of sugar? The viscosity would be similar to honey.
Yep I have! It's not quite as strong as I like, but I was being pretty picky with this sauce. 😂 I definitely would recommend using that though if you like agave!
Thanks for another great video! All definitely be trying some of these recipes. I’d love to see you do some desert recipes.
Thank you so much for watching! And let me know if you try any of the recipes :) We don't make desert usually, but now that it's fall, I'm getting back into making some awesome apple cranberry sauce and it's SO YUMMY. Maybe I'll throw that in the next one ;)
Minimal Millennials that would be amazing! I’d love the recipe.
Seems like genuine ppl
Thanks I hope so :)
Do you have a sink and fridge? What size? How do you store food? How do you wash it? If it's hot do you cook outside? How often do you have to shop? What kind of water set up do you have?
This was great! Very entertaining & informative. Do a bloopers video. :) BTW...lime and lemon (after squeezed) are great for feet and elbows. Another way to feel fresh!
Hahahaha we probably have so many from this video because we were HARDCORE goofing off the whole time 😂
I thought their friends name was hummus 😂. Just discovered these couples and I LOVE LOVE THEM
hahaha but hummus is our friend... ;)
You guys should come visit Vic, and check out French beach! It’s beautiful! Or visit tofino! We have sea wolves! And lots of vegan food
made this twice already. sooooo good 😭
So glad to hear that!
loved this one...keep the food ideas coming...I made the sandwich and it was great..thanks! you can help us get healthy!
Heyyyyy!! 😊 y’all Are so inspiring!
Where are your wood bowls from? PS im a new sub and love your content.
Thank you! I wish we could tell you but we got them at a garage sale haha
omg I’ve never found a channel I like with someone that has the same name as me
you guys are missing that tamarind concentrate goodness in the pad thai sauce ;D
Love your bowls... where can I find them?
We actually got them from Christian's dad who found them at a garage sale. So I don't know of any bowls like them :(
simplifying smiths search, Wood Bowls. 🙂
Thanks for the recipe 👑
Glad you liked it!
My husband made me hot sauce for our first date. 💚 I'm getting him some yellowbird hot sauce because of you. Thanks. You guys are so bad ass!
Oh and Aubry! Thanks for the recipe. I've never made pad Thai and I can't wait to make this for the family! Love you girl!
You two are seriously a cute couple
Thank you!
just started watching your channel a few days ago- and what a nice bonus that you're vegan! not sure if you've tried this yet but i do it camping sometimes...stovetop pizza!
Ahhh we'll totally have to try that!! And thanks for subbing, so happy to have you along!
Aww you guys are the best xx
Yessss loving the vegan vlogs ♡♡♡
Thank you!! We've had a blast making them
Looks delicious.
Everything looks yummy. If you want your avocados to soften quicker keep them in a paper bag with an apple. Magic!lol
Ahhh we'll totally have to try that!
Is anyone else reminded of the vegan youtuber Maddie Lymburner! They are just an older looking version of that couple...
Aww thanks we love her! Her stuff is great! Also I doubt we are even older than them, maybe the same age but not much older go check out our latest vid ;)
Faye .....yes ,I think I have it down when it comes to the oats!!!! She has a video she just put out that has a few pumpkin recipes that look amazing.
Love your vibes! Any chance you will share where those wood dishes come from?! Thx :)
Yum, i'm going to try making that pad thai! Thank you :)
Let me know what you think!!
Where'd you get the wooden bowl from?
We got those dishes from a garage sale so unfortunately I can't tell you where to buy them. :(
WAZZZAAAPP!!
You two are so cute and funny! Just found and subscribed recently. How have I been vegan 9 years and never made an avo sandwich like the one Christian made??? #avogoals
Thank you!! I'm so glad you're here
For the sauce, would maple syrup work instead of sugar? Looks dope! 🤙🏻
Yeah absolutely! Any kind of sweetener works. The flavor of the sweetener is pretty subtle, so the maple syrup probably wouldn't alter it too much.
Rebecca Jane that's what I used. Excellent choice!
Use avocado oil its amazing!
You guys are so cute !
Aww shanks ☺
Chia seeds need to be ground to get health benefits ps love your channel
If you're ever in Stl hit me up!
I miss Christian & Aubrey so m❤uch
Yey!
I love Yello Bird and pure Extra Virgin Olive Oil!!
y'all should look into liquid aminos instead of soy sauce from Bragg's!! such a good taste, less sodium, and more good things for ya!!
Will totally check it out!
Where did you get them bowls from??? They're super cute
Garage sale man and they are the best
Where did you get your bowls? I love them :)
Aren't they cool? We keep getting this question but we got them from a garage sale lol no idea where they came from but supposedly they are made from wood from coffee tree root so that's fun
yummy
Hopefully you guys had a chance or will have a chance to check out the Naam. it's a vegan/vegetarian restaurant in Kitsilano a couple of blocks from the Only Cafe!
Ahh we heard about it! We'll be back in Van today or tomorrow and we'll definitely try to make it over there.
I just found you guys a few days ago and I’ve binge watched 90% of your videos! I love your personalities and you’re welcome to my abode if you’re in Tucson 😊
Ahhh THANK YOU! I'm so glad to have you along! We might be down your way early-ish next year. Definitely reach out to us!
Can you tell me why you don't travel to warm and sunny locations throughout the year? Maybe 3 states a season rule...
Hahaha we're asking the same question. 😂 That's honestly the main plan but we're trying to stay a little bit north until after the holidays since we're spending it with family in Washington. But we'll be fleeing the cold first thing in January!
Minimal Millennials I'm in Northern California and Dinner and a hot shower is waiting for you guys. Love the channel. I would never be in Winter climate... I would be in Peru right now... 😇
I have like four bottles of yellow bird in my fridge
In New Zealand, when you stick out your pinky and thumb and wiggle it, it is a gang sign
I've never seen that cooktop. What is it and where can I find it?
where are the crushed peanuts? pssh!
Sadly, we can't usually put crushed peanuts on our pad thai because Christian can be allergic to raw peanuts. :( So usually we settle for sesame seeds instead!
Minimal Millennials ohh that's my favorite part of pad thai lol! i love the crunch. and yes, sesame seeds seems great alternative
Diana Ragub where is the Powdered Peanut Butter?
We're do you get your wooden bowls at
Where did you get your bowls?
omg wear did u get ur wood plates I want
Man I wish we knew where they came from because we keep getting asked about it! We got them at a garage sale
I don't know about Van Life now... If it requires not eating Honey then I don't think so... 😎
honey is a grey area for most vegans man. I know that was kind of a joke but even as a vegan honey is pretty on the edge. We still eat honey if we know where it is coming from. So yeah man hop in a van and just know where your honey is coming from ;)
Minimal Millennials a bees butt...
Can we leave the tahini out for the pad thai?
I can't seem to find it anywhere
Yeah you can! That's usually how you make it anyways, but I like the creaminess of the tahini. I had trouble finding tahini at first too, but you can normally find it with the peanut butter. At least in the States. Hope that helps!
Minimal Millennials I tried making it without the tahini and it turned out very good! I actually managed to find the tahini but it was pretty expensive. Might try to have a crack at making it on my own to put in next time 🙂
Tofu town LMFAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I know, that was hilarious 😂
I thought the Yellowbird habanero condiment was too sweet.
ur a beast
Where’s the beef!?! 😱
From Aubrey's reaction to the yellow bottle, I thought you had picked up a pee bottle by mistake!
