Thank you for making soy free recipes as I am bulking, I am from Egypt and we don't have access to tofu or tempeh. Or even vegan cheese or mock stuff. So I eat basically beans as my protein source, starches and all fruits and veggies. 🇪🇬☘️☀️
I think your diet is probably healthier. I have been veg for 35 years, so I prefer beans and more natural protein sources. The fake meat scares me! (But the fake cheese is a real luxury, I empathize with you.✨)
Maybe a cookbook for protein meals like this. Lower calorie with 50/50 plate for those of us trying to lose weight. I love all your recipes, sauces, dressings, and videos. You are a born cook, as we say in the south.
This ❤ OMG! I literally just found you for the first time. I am 7 weeks post op bilateral mastectomy and was figuring out how to go back to my gym and lifting life as planned based. I've done the Marco thing the meat head way. Now, after being diagnosed with breast cancer 2 mos ago, i was to now do this the vegan way. I was going to prep today and this really helps. I'm seriously giving this a go this afternoon. At 41yrs, 5'3, 122lbs and 19% body fat, I definitely don't want to loose. Just build lean muscle. I have definitely subscribed.
Meal prep is the best, saves SO MUCH time! This looks DEELISH. I’ll prob sub the coconut milk with cashew cream but won’t be as nice I doubt! Thx Derek 🌱💪
Thanks bro! I don't think i've ever used cashew cream. We have some sort of powdered cashew milk in the cupboard i've been meaning to try for a while now.
Thanks for sharing your healthy yummy recipes! Question though... have you ever tried Next Level Diet? I got a custom high-protein meal plan from them and it's really working for me.
Oh yes love it, would love to see more meal prep videos! any kind is great, breakfast, brunch, lunch, snacks, dinner, desserts - anything is appreciated to be honest. thank you!
Congratulations on all the new subscribers…they’re smart people! Your meals are always delicious looking, wonderfully colourful and nutritious, Derek. Thanks for sharing your combinations, as well as, the macros, afterwards.
My guy.. After watching a documentary on nutrition, I decided to go vegan starting this week. The only animal product I'll still do for a while will be organic egg whites.. This dish is literally my first plant based cooking.. I followed the steps carefully and I believe I got it right the first time.. I tasted it and it was so lovely.. There's no way in the world I won't cook this again.. Thank you man! You have a new subscriber.. 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💯
I love this. The longer I practice as a physician the more I truly do agree that food is medicine. Its the most common chemical you consume. I'm glad you're out here educating people.
Hey brother! Really appreciate you putting these videos out there. Been helping me A LOT! Just started eating plant based 1 month ago, and I’ve already made two of your crockpot recipes! Thank you and would REALLY appreciate more meal prep!!
Congratulations on all the new subscribers…they’re smart people! 👏🤩 Your meals are always delicious looking, wonderfully colourful and nutritious, Derek. Thanks for sharing your combinations, as well as, the macros, afterwards.
I found this channel a few days ago and fell in love with it! I’m not a fan of cooking or eating animal-based protein, so this is a gem! Thanks for the great, fun content! Please, please, PLEASE, make more high-protein meal prep videos!!!
Thanks Derek, cant wait to try it! As much as I love your what i eat in a day videos, I work 50 hours a week and on top of trying to stay fit, have a social life, and maintain a healthy sleep schedule its impossible to be in the kitchen every night making dinner, and every day making lunch, meal prep is the only way I can reach my health goals, cant wait to try this recipe!! Hope to see more meal preps!
I've been cooking these every week for about 2 month now as a meal prep for the week. Loving it! Thank you so much Derek you made transition to plant based diet so easy 3 years ago and you still make it delicious. Loved your 2 ebooks by the way!
Did you change any of the recipe? I made it as well but would like it to have more flavor. Any recommendations? On second thought, it could be because I need to and am eating it cold. It's a work dinner and I don't have a way of heating it. Probably would have more flavor if it were warmed up.
Hi Derek, I love your videos. They are full of so much education that my vegetarian dietitian also said. Here are some video ideas that I know I would love to see. 1. Hot dinner meals with cooked veg instead of a raw salad. 2. breakfast, lunch and dinner for children to wean them toward adult plates. 3. International flavor. Dinners with ingredients from Asian, South America, France and India. 4. BBQ ideas. I grilled mushrooms & cauliflower that was so good but I didn't know how to turn it into dinner. thanks!
More Meal prep😊!!! I love it so much, and i prepare each week !!! More italien, mexican, asiatique, indian recep!!! I love confort food like this one😊 thanks you so much!! I try this tomorrow !!!
My partner and I made this over the weekend. And holy F. YUM. Just recently started going plant based and if all meals are like this one then YES PLEASE. more of this?
very nice recipe! my first time cooking with lentils an quinoa, love the taste of lentlis and the texture from the quinoa. the veggies were a really nice addition. definitely added this meal prep video to my favourite recipe list! thanks💪🏼
Man thanks to your videos i have been able to transition to 80% plant based and it has changed my life. Your recipes are amazing dude, thank you so much!
My PT has been bugging me to start meal prepping to up my protein intake as I HATE cooking so don't eat much. This seems like the perfect start and I already have all the ingredients so I will make it tonight. Thanks.
Made this meal, the red lentil tofu, and your other lentil curry meal this week! I always trust your meals because they’re budget friendly, easy to make, & always taste good. Thank you! 🙏
Adhd friendly. It's already hard to get ideas of what to eat. You know you have to prep and add to take care of your macros 🫠 it's easy like this, follow along, easy to prep, and right nutrients PLUS plant based!! 🎉🎉🎉 more like this
Yes, I want also more Meal prep recipes. Maybe the same basic meal with different prepared sauces for each day to get the flavour not to boring. Thank you for sharing recipes that work also for an everyday lifestyle and not just for full-time athletes. :)
So when I do dishes like this, I use frozen veggies and it turns it into a one pot dish. Plus the liquid from the frozen veggies means you don’t have to use oil or extra water to sauté. Oh and I would make this with brown rice and freeze a few portions. Rice freezes better than quinoa.
Hi Derek, thanks for sharing this amazing recipe, so delicious and full of nutrients!! I recently join your channel, I'm watching your old and new videos, they are so motivating and inspiring, thanks a lot!! 😄🤗
I just might scale this down and make it for dinner soon! (There are only 2 of us, so this recipe cut in half would be perfect) thanks for the amazing recipes Derek!
Great food prep and nutrition video, Derek! My daughter and I both follow you; she thought your ebook for me for Christmas, printed it, and put it in a ring binder! I enjoy all your videos (eep. The trampoline park one) but would really like to see more of the food prep and nutrition like this one. Love, love the red lentil tofu - shared with others and they made it, too!(Hi Crystal)
I made this tonight for dinner. It was delicious and I am full! I did change up the seasoning a little bit. I used the seasoning from @rainbowplantlife Vegan red Lentil Curry recipe which included garlic, ginger, turmeric, a serrano pepper, cumin, coriander, chilli powder, curry powder and garam masala. It was delicious! We will have lunch for the week with the leftovers. Thanks so much for a great recipe!
Love your video!! Refreshing, entertaining, did not skip processes and exactly what I was looking for. Was about to order one of those meal prep services....but my goodness, too expensive, and all that packaging waste bugs me.
Been watching you for years, healthy 69 year old plant based eater ( by my blood work and scan results) but found I'm a LITTLE low on protein today. Hate to ask this likely over-asked question but I need help figuring out how much protein I need. I know it is not as much as they used to tout back in the 80s and 90s. I'm 5’ 10" and weigh 165lbs. I work out fairly regularly but only to maintain not to be in beast mode (those days are behind me, gladly ha). Sorry to ask a question you've answered a million times but I trust YOUR advice/recommendations over anyone else. I take zero meds , because I have 120- 130 total cholesterol , no hpb, or sugar issues, and my testosterone is naturally at a healthy level which surprised my doc also. Anyway any info would be greatly appreciated. Your recipes are the absolute best!! Including the sauces and dressings!! We eat beans tofu tempeh peanut butter powder, whole grains lentils, all veggies and fruits and supplement with spirulina, moringa, flax chia and hemp . Nuts seeds and avacado a CPL times a week
Oh interesting. If levels are low and you are a bit older, around 1.2-1.4 grams per kg of body weight is probably a good amount. A scoop of good plant based protein powder with a banana and frozen berries once per day is an easy way to get an extra 25 grams. 👊
Congrats on the boost in new subs, Man! That’s great. Thanks for the new recipe in meal prep style. I’m looking forward to putting this together for a work week soon.

Brother you should make your own channel would be interested to see your progress and the food you eat in your country
Al hamdulillah
@@kelmac1618Natural tofu is not "fake meat" but an excellent vegan protein source that works. Soy fear is unfounded.
Yes, more meal prep. I work 12 hour shifts, along with a 40 minute commute, and need recipes that will reheat well. Thank you for awesome content.
dosent it stale after 2-3 days??
Similar situation...
This was the most delicious meal I’ve had in months. I ate it everyday!!!
Maybe a cookbook for protein meals like this. Lower calorie with 50/50 plate for those of us trying to lose weight. I love all your recipes, sauces, dressings, and videos. You are a born cook, as we say in the south.

@@Simnettnutritionaww, you’ll LOVE it! I guess you know you can make it by whizzing cashews in water. Powdered cashew milk sounds interesting!!!
Some type of peanut butter sauce could be a good sub too!
@@Zenjohnnyamen!!
I add cashew cream to tomato pasta sauce for a creamy delight. It’s one of our household faves.
I like it when Derek laughs or more like chuckles/giggles, like when he found the tiny bell pepper.
Thanks for sharing your healthy yummy recipes! Question though... have you ever tried Next Level Diet? I got a custom high-protein meal plan from them and it's really working for me.

A little tip .. add salt to that curry right after adding lentils as it will help it cook better.
I love this. The longer I practice as a physician the more I truly do agree that food is medicine. Its the most common chemical you consume. I'm glad you're out here educating people.
Super easy, delicious meal, and as a bonus I can tell you, it's super cheap too🥰

This looks like a great recipe. I can't wait to try it. More meal preps please.
Can you please do more meal
Prep ideas. It’s really helpful for vegans with busy schedule trying to eat healthy.
As an Indian, I already make this. Should just try switching out my beloved brown rice with Quinoa for this week's batch cooking. Thanks!!

Great recipe prep! Super easy, tasty, and lots of protein! I had enough to share with our neighbor who loved it, too!
Awesome! Thank you!
Definitely going to try this one out, I’m curious to see if the curry/veg would freeze/thaw nicely or not.
Thanks for the amazing recipe. It looks pretty good. Can you more recipes for breakfast and post workout. I would really appreciate 🙏
Thank you for the nutritional break down.
Amazing videos as always. More meal Prep videos - how about 5 days breakfast lunch and dinner
Looks so good don't skimp on a little lemon juice at the end guys❤😊
This was a bit different from my usual meal prep, but jfc this was soo good! So happy I found your channel. Thank you for this bomb prep idea 😄
Would love to see more meal prep recipes and thank you
The curry you cooked is called sambar and you can add potato and any vegetable to it. It will taste even better.
So when I do dishes like this, I use frozen veggies and it turns it into a one pot dish. Plus the liquid from the frozen veggies means you don’t have to use oil or extra water to sauté. Oh and I would make this with brown rice and freeze a few portions. Rice freezes better than quinoa.
Hi Derek, thanks for sharing this amazing recipe, so delicious and full of nutrients!! I recently join your channel, I'm watching your old and new videos, they are so motivating and inspiring, thanks a lot!! 😄🤗
Watching and commenting to support.
I'm so glad when you get more subs.

Beautiful soulful food, great recipe thanks for the tutorial 🙏
Just made this. Had to substitute white beans. Didn’t have chick peas. Wonderful meal👍🏼👍🏼
My first meal from your suggestion 😃
It tastes good excellent recipe! 👏
Delish! - I was lazy so I added a head of steamed cauliflower to the curry at the end - just to have veggies covered - lolol
I just made this meal, whew!!!!! It’s good as heck!!! Reminds me of indian food !!!
Please make more meal prep videos they are awesome.😃

I substituted oat milk with coconut extract for coconut milk as per Anne Esselstyn. Turned out great.
Great food prep and nutrition video, Derek! My daughter and I both follow you; she thought your ebook for me for Christmas, printed it, and put it in a ring binder! I enjoy all your videos (eep. The trampoline park one) but would really like to see more of the food prep and nutrition like this one. Love, love the red lentil tofu - shared with others and they made it, too!(Hi Crystal)
