    Hey everyone, thanks for watching! Mac n cheese has always been one of my favorite dishes - and I don’t know about you, but I’m NOT giving that comfort up just because I eat plant based - hopefully this video proves you don’t have to. 😊 Who else should I have on the show?? What else should I veganize?? SO MANY QUESTIONS. Help a girl out 💚

      1. I think vegan pizza needs to be on the list. Get the pizza cheese to actually stretch (hint: tapioca starch).
      2. Other ideas: Shawarma, General Tso's Chicken (or other Chinese Takeout favorites), anything pastry (cakes, puff pastry, pies, etc.), fish sushi.
      3. I'd love you to figure out vegan matzah ball soup (from my testing, they're either too dense or just fall apart), but that might not have as wide of an appeal as the other things you've veganized.
      4. These videos (the cookie one, too, and any others I don't know about), should be added to the "Vegan Substitute Tests" playlist, or be their own playlist.
      5. Why didn't you use the vegan cheeses that Sage used? Seems simple enough to use the store-bought cheeses, and I don't know about where you are, but near me Daiya is easier to find than nutritional yeast.
      6. Love you! You're so the vegan we need! It would make me so happy if you replied to my comment

    I really liked the speech of the owner of that restaurant about the importance to not just be vegan but to also care for the distance and conditions in which your food grew and that we should really work to develop local food farms, like this it has low carbon foot print, it's organic and ethical so it's healthier and doesn't rely on like slavery, and like this you participate in developing small businesses near you, It was really fresh to see someone phrase all these concerns for local farming out loud in this age of environmental crisis

      I don't know if you were asking for a real answer or not lol, but you'd think that since you're using far less resources to make the vegan option they'd be cheaper, but it's probably because when something is made on such an industrial scale it can be sold for less and still make the same profit.

    Honestly, I feel like they should cast strangers for this. If they're her friends or coworkers, then those guests care about Merle's feelings and we're not getting a fair review

    Nice one, definitely made me hungry watching this. To make it even healthier, I substitute about half of the macaroni with cauliflower. for extra taste (burned bits) pan fry the cauliflower. But if you want to keep it simple, just chop it up and boil the cauliflower in the same water as the pasta.
    Oh and another tip is to put some soy sauce into the cheese sauce, gives it more savoury taste and helps with the colour too.

    I make mine similar to sage’s! I make a roux and then add lots of garlic, nut milk vegan cheeses (mozzarella & cheddar) & cream cheese & nutritional yeast And it is SO good. I find everyone likes it more than the nut based versions I’ve made before.

    I don't think I would ever fully become vegan but, these videos have encouraged me to start incorporating plant based meals into my diet and im more open to trying vegan foods. I feel like there is a stereotype that vegan food doesn't taste as good as food with animal products so I enjoyed seeing how these videos showed how delicious vegan food is! I also love how sweet Merle is with her guests in each video!
