You may not always feel creative, but you're always unique and that's why you're loved and appreciated by many.
Omg this is so sweet!
@@OhMyDarling90 thank you...
Woww this was so kind of you. Thank you so much!
@@Shakaylafelice you're welcome
I’m really feeling much better the more I get into Whole Food Plant-Based cooking and eating. I’ve been chronically ill for years. However, since the very inception of my diet change my illnesses are dropping off. The very first thing that fell by the wayside was Diabetes and the most difficult things to change are high blood pressure and pain; but they are gradually getting better.
I watch and enjoy your channel especially seeing a young woman with a vibrant spiritual life. That puts the icing on the cake for me. By the way I am a 74 year old black woman. May God continue to bless you and your family. I love it your husband is in your videos. It’s wonderful seeing you guys interact with one another. When God is in the center of your marriage, true, pure love is exuded. 🙏🏼❤️
God is so good!! Im happy to hear your health is improving and you're feeling better! It was very inspiring to read this so that you so much for sharing. I appreciate you being here and for the kind words!
Great to see that Shakayla is back but no need to apologise for taking a break because everyone needs to take a rest. Good to hear that Brandon is joining Shakayla eating the same way as his wife. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕 Shakayla & ❤ Brandon.
Aww thanks so much!!!
I always love your videos but I just want to say the thing I love the most is when you always call your husband so affectionately. Like literally every time you mention him with an endearing name. That is so so sweet to me 🥰
Awww thank you! Im forever giving him a lil nickname lol.
OK, my family is 🇯🇲 and I've learned how to cook rice by allowing the water to come to a boil WITHOUT a cover. Just as the water has almost evaporated (like the rice is soggy but you can't visibly see the water pooled at the bottom anymore), THEN you cover it, put the fire on the lowest heat/flame and let it 'steam' the rest of the way. Perfect rice everytime.
When we are doing our rice and peas, sometimes we even place a plastic bag or sheet of foil between the pot and pan lid to lock in all that steam. The steam does the work.
Hope this helps!
Thank you so muchhh
You're welcome!
As a fellow Jamaican I agree that perfect rice, quinoa, bulgar and honestly any grain you’re cooking comes out perfect everytime !! Steam and low heat is your friend for the grains 🫶🏽
Your meals are not complicated. Not everything needs to be over the top. For me it needs to be easy and attainable. Congratulations Brandon on your journey
So true!
The rice cooker is worth it. 3 cups of rice, 6 cups of water and it does the rest of the work. Lets me know when it’s done, and I have rice for the whole week. The best investment. I love your videos! Thank you for being an inspiration!
I am so close to ordering one lol
Yay!!!! That is cool that your hubby wants to go plant-based with you (for a month).
I know right!!
So glad you’re back! Do you think you can do a video dedicated to your favorite snacks??
I went to an Indian cooking class taught by Chef Sri Rao and Chef Rao taught us to make rice and it comes out perfect every time with no boiling over! He told us to turn the stove on high heat and bring the water to a boil. Once the water starts boiling add in the rice and boil for 5 minutes. After the 5 minute mark, turn the heat to low and allow it to steam the rest of the way. He said this is how Indian chefs/cooks get the perfect rice every time. I can attest that it works!
Thanks for sharing!! Thats very helpful
I never put a top on my rice until it’s almost done I don’t cook it all the way about 90% then take off the eye put top let stand for 10 mins ❤ I do have a rice cooker but for some reason I have to baby that as well because it shuts off but still tends to over cook it but I’m from the south so will eat it anyway hopes this helps
I love your content and your hair looks fabulous! I do wish more content creators would share on their basic or boring days because that’s real! I think it’s a good reminder that every meal doesn’t have to be aesthetically pleasing or creative to be good!
I love this idea and will definitely share meals like this more often.
For some reason as I watched you today,the Holy Spirit fell upon me and I began to weep a bit, I follow your channel and have always felt that you’re a real true believer, continue praying and together with faith your channel and life will go only up in Jesus Christ’s precious holy name 🙌🏾🕊!
Wow, God is so good!! Im so glad you're here and I receive that!
As for the rice once it comes to boil I stir it and then cook it on med low with a paper bag and the pot lid slightly ajar until the water is absorbed
We all need to take a break every now & then! It's great to see you back. I'm excited that your husband it eating plant base with you for a month.
Yes! Thank you!
Just discovered your channel and I am loving it. I been trying to do plants meals for a few months and I think your channel will surely help me. ❤
Im so happy you're here!! I hope you find my videos helpful for you on your journey
Happy Belated BD!!! Glad you had time away to refresh & rejuvenate. Having family is always great! Thanks for all your super great recipes!!!
Thank you so much!!
Love that you’re adding gut health friendly foods
I always cook my rice in the microwave. No overcooking, no cleaning. I wash it and fill it in a microwavable glass container (high enough) and then 20 minutes in for 250g of rice. :)
Shakayla you were truly missed! ❤ However, we understand you needing to take a break (time for you) We are very happy to have you back! Love your recipes, but more importantly your vibe is unmatched …I stay smiling when I’m watching your videos 😁
I would love to see your take on backyard bbq meals, oatmeal in different flavors, childhood meals-vegan style. Then I really wish you would continue with the high protein videos. They are sooo helpful. I hope that gives you some ideas🤷🏽♀️ glad you took a break and prioritized YOU, and welcome back
Great suggestion! Thank you for the ideas and the welcome back ❤️
Welcome❤
I’m new to your channel and you are fuel to my fire right now. I love how simple you make it 😊I love how detailed you are when it comes to ingredients
Not new here but I’ve never introduced myself! I’m based in St. Louis and I love to cook. I’m pescatarian but your videos have definitely inspired me to eat more plant based. Your videos feel so creative, non-judgemental, and just radiate joy! Thank you for taking the time to share :)
rub or brush a little oil (i use avocado) on the inside rim of the pot any time you boil anything and some how it keeps the water from boiling over!
Great idea!!
I hope your husband will enjoy being plant based.
Thank you for all you give. Your work is truly appreciated. ❤
Do get yourself a rice cooker. I really like dry rice. I rinse it over 5xs or until the water is clear.
Pop it in rice cooker and no worries. I haven’t perfected brown rice rice cooker method yet and I do cook my brown rice on the stovetop
Thats so nice of you! Thank you
Great video. When cooking rice once it starts boiling make sure you turn the heat low and let it simmer slowly and cover the pan. I have never had the problem of it overflowing a
Girl, your creativity is "poppin". Aint no body going nowhere. Love, love, love your recipes. Gonna try that burger bowl this week, and that thousand island salad dressing for sure!
Haha im glad to hear that! I hope you enjoy the salad. Its been one of my go-to's lately
Happy birthday queen!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👑👑Love the channel!!! You be inspiring a girlie to get that protein in
Thank you so much!!
I add frozen or fresh blue berries to my Kombucha and it tastes amazing ❤and I love your videos and thank you so much and I’ve been thinking about doing the whole food plant based diet 😊❤
Oooo that sounds good!!
For the rice, when it starts boiling, you reduce the heat to simmer or low and let it finish cooking. It shouldn’t bubble over. It might take a bit longer to cook, but it works! i used to have that problem all the time too until I actually read the cooking instuction on the back of the rice bag haha
Love the recipes. To cook the rice without making a mess, you can put on medium-low heat for 13 mins with the lid on, turn the heat off and let it rest for another 13 mins, the rice is gonna continue cooking without the heat and absorb the water.
New subscriber! Love your videos so far! To keep your rice from overflowing, cook on high until it comes to a boil. Then cover and turn the heat down to the lowest heat setting. I hope this works for you!
I’ve been a kombucha hater since the early 2000s, like 10 toes down HATER, but… I tried it with the coconut water and I was too stunned to speak. I did the mystic mango and it was actually good! Thank you so much for the suggestion, cause I struggle with getting the fermented foods in!
I struggle to make rice in a pot but love having an instant pot for rice cooking, steel cut oat cooking, slow cooking, pressure cooking! I’m on my second one bc my husband dropped and broke the lid on my first.
Welcome back and Happy Belated Birthday! Glad you took a much needed break. I recently subscribed to your channel and love your content, it’s so inspiring. Keep doing what you’re doing! ❤
Thank you so much!!
Love your channel and content Shakayla! (My name is Shayla so maybe in biased lol) your videos inspire me to stick with plant based eating. I'm wondering if you could do another what I eat in a day for cooking for yourself and someone who isnt plant based
Heyy Shayla! Thank you for being here and subscribing. Yes, I'll make another one of those videos for you ❤️
Hi Shakayla! Welcome back it’s so good to see you. Will you let us know how Brandon enjoys his 30 days eating a plant based diet?
Yes I will
I do drink the kombucha, but you right adding the coconut water does help calm the taste down. I also tried making the sausage . I love the show because you are transparent and so joyful.
Aw thank you so much for the kind words!! I hope you enjoyed the sausage! Whats your favorite kombucha flavor?
@@Shakaylafelice trilogy
nothing wrong with a break we always need one and helps refuel your creation :)
Love this!!! Please do more high protein videos, I just started working out and I'm in desperate need of high protein meals.
Welcome back girl and happy belated birthday! I hope you had a great time in Seattle! You look great and it’s awesome that your hubby is willing to eat plant based with you for this month! All love and joy for you entering into a new month in Jesus Name!❤
Thank you so much! I receive that and am hoping for the same for you!!
I’m so glad to see you back! As a huge fan, I was surely telling myself… I’m going to give her one more week and then I’m reaching out to see if she’s okay!
Aww thank you!!
Welcome back, i was about to check if I'd been unsubscribed. Happy belated birthday wishes. I love sauerkraut too. Once u made my own beetroot one, so delish
Nope, you're still here with me ☺️ Thank you for the birthday wishes
Happy belatedddd bday 🎉🎉 and as always, the content is great. Keep it up the great work.
Shes back! I love that your hubby is joining you, mine also does it with me periodically before hes asking for some fish or chicken lol I love it! I can definitely relate to the not feeling motivated to be creative in the kitchen too and I'm glad that you got your spark back, we missed you!
Thank you! Im glad to be back. Im sure mine will be just like yours soon lol but Im excited for him to eat more plant based meals even if he decided to add meat back later.
I missed watching your videos. I’m glad you’re back and feeling inspired.❤
Yay! Thank you!
you looks AMAZZZZZZING. glowing.. allaaa that. Your content is forever legendary.
Aww thank you so much
Aw I’m so happy you’re back!!! ❤
Happy to have you back
Happy belated birthday! Sometimes taking a break from creating is needed so I’m glad you were able to take that much needed rest 😊
Also, I’ve seen Synergy kombucha at Aldi; I don’t remember the price but Aldi always got the deals
Thank you so much!! I think Aldi also has Health Ade, which is good too!
I've been here for some months, and I love your creativity. The best way I knew to prevent rice from boiling over was to get a rice cooker. LOL! It changed everything, and made cooking so much easier. I could just put the rice and water in and walk away. I couldn't stand cleaning the stove after cooking rice. 😂
Bahaha that seems like the best and easiest way to prevent it lol. Im glad you're here ❤️
Hi shakayla Varsha Rao here. I realised I've never introduced myself although I've been following your channel since many years 😆. I love love love your videos and I know this might sound a little wierd (or not) but I like your hand gestures when you talk 😍❤. I just had a small tip for yhe question you had about water over flowing while cooking rice- just put a wooden spoon right in the middle of the pot. Like both the ends sitting on either sides of the pot. That stops the water from over flowing. But being an indian i cant stress enough how awesome it is to make rice in aninstant pot or a rice cooker 😍. In india people have stainless steel or aluminum pressure cookers and that too of different shapes and sizes cuz we eat so much rice 🙈rice is life! Anyways just wanted to come here and say hello 👋 and keep those amazing creative videos coming❤🤗
Welcome back! 🎉 For the rice, you can add rice to a pot and then pour enough water to cover it and a thumb nail more. Then cook on low (covered) until water is absorbed (with no stirring). Once the water evaporated, leave the pot covered for a few minutes with the heat off 😊
Thanks for the tips!
I love my instant pot for rice and other recipes. But I know what you mean about the water bubbling up even when you turn to low. I think it's just too hot that the low setting isn't enough to bring it down. So I put the setting at the lowest end of high to just get the boil started before bringing to low and covering. This keeps the temp in check. Hope this helps!
Never thought to use my instant pot for rice! I may have to give it a try soon. Thank you!
@@Shakaylafelice oh my goodness yes! Try it and let us know how it goes 🫶🏼
@@Shakaylafelice this how I make all my rice whether plain, rice & peas, sticky rice, yellow rice, arroz can gandules, etc. 😂😅 just use the knuckle method to gauge the water amount and put it on the rice setting
Hello! I love watching your videos
You inspire me to eat more plant based foods. I’m the only one in my family so it’s hard for me to buy products just for me and not be able to share them. Tofu is my next adventure food to make at home . Burger bowls are my new favorite dish.
Im so happy to hear this! I hope you enjoy the tofu and I definitely hear you on the burger bowls. They're sooo good
You're an Inspiration indeed for Healthy food consumptions
As a Japanese person idk how people live without a rice cooker lol! I use it every other day haha! We also have a pot called donabe that cooks rice on the stove and has natural ventilation but rice cooker is so much easier. The Zojirushi brand is my ❤
Also, glad you’re back and thanks for sharing bits of God with us ❤
Ooo thank you for sharing the brand! I'll check it out.
Glad to see you back. I cook my brown rice like pasta. I boil the water first with the lid on, then take the lid off and add the rice. Let the rice boil for 20 mins without the lid on then drain it and let it sit off the heat with the lid on for another 10 minutes. I'm sure you can use this technique for white rice too but decrease the cooking time. I hope that helps.
Thank you!!!
I love love love your videos. I always make my rice in the instant pot, white Jasmine rice 3 mins on high pressure 10 mins Natural pressure release. Brown rice 22 mins on high pressure then 10 mins natural pressure release. Water is 1:1 ratio. Hits every time.
Thank you for the kind words and the tips!!
Welcome back! I've been here for awhile. Your recipes and tips are definitely what made it easy for me this time around. Now I need to try shredding my tofu.
Yesss I love seeing comments from you and appreciate you always supporting my videos 🥹
I enjoy your videos. Be encouraged 🎉
Welcome back!🤗 Great video, Shakayla. Lay a wooden spoon across the pot of whatever you're boiling, and it won't boil over!😊
Great idea!!
Great idea!!
Welcome back! Happy belated birthday!
Thank you!!
Been looking for you!! Also sis when you add hair details? Hair always on point. Welcome back
Im backkkk! I wish I could remember where these bundles were from.
🎉Happy Birthday Shakayla!🥳 And congratulations in advance Brandon 🥑😋We are all well and thank you for that broccoli and purple sweet potato recipe. It came out great. I am thinking of lightly steaming the broccoli next time and baking the whole sweet potato to preserve some of the flavors. It was absolutely delicious - as usual. You definitely have a gift❤
Ooo thats a good idea!!! Im glad you enjoyed
I've been cooking rice for years, after rinsing the rice add to the pot then add water, cook uncover on med heat once the rice boils down to where you barely see the water turn off the heat and cover. The rice will then stream, when it's dry and done fluff and eat. Do not stir the rice while cooking if it clumps just give the pot a good shake. Good luck❤
Thanks for sharing!!
New-ish here, but first time commenting! Hi I'm Shae and you've inspired me to start making my matcha latte's at home (amongst other inspirations). I am saving a lot of money doing so and having fun mixing it up. Cant wait for the next vid!
Heyyy Shae!! Thanks for commenting. I appreciate you being here and I'm so glad you're making matcha at home now! This comment just inspired me to make some this afternoon.
Ughhhh everything looks sooo delish! Especially the burger salad, which I'm def gonna try this weekend! The Hellmann's vegan mayo we get here in The Bahamas is GMO and nasty! Ugh! Thanks for sharing!!! Love your videos and recipes ❤
You are GLOWING!!!!! Your hair is so cute too!!! 😍🫶🏾
Thanks so much boo!!
Glad to have you back :)
I missed you so much but I totally understand everyone needs a break! I now cook my rice in a instant pot that actually has a setting button for rice.i can't believe your husband trying vegan for 1 month 😍 love you & your videos god bless ❤❤❤
I can't believe I didn't realize you could cook rice in the instant pot! Im going to give that a try. Thank you for the kind words!!
Missed you! Keep ‘em coming.
Thank you! Will do!
I’ve never seen anyone shred up tofu like that. I’m going to try that because you got it CRISPY 😍
Happy Belated Birthday and I've been watching you for a while and love you and what you prepare!! I love your mom too, she's fun!! Good luck to Brandon on 30 days of being plant based. 🤞🏽🤞🏽maybe he won't go back!!😂😂❤❤

Im so glad you're here and thank you so much for commenting!
Welcome Back! I drink kombucha and I am going to try it with coconut water.
Hope you like it!
@@Shakaylafelice Yes I liked it
Throughly enjoy watching your videos! Thank you for making these for us!!
Glad you enjoy it!
My recipe for cooking rice is to put your rice in the water bring it up a point where you see it’s about to boil gently. At that point turn your heat down as low as possible but you got a simmer going. This part will require you to know your stove. Some electric stoves can put out strong energy and you need to figure out how to control the heat. For gas, this is why I like gas, you can control better. This should help with the overflowing of liquids. But yeah, a rice cooker is a good investment. I just got one. Did you know you can make one pot meals with them? Girl! I put my rice in, a few veggies, tofu and a sauce I made. In 20 minutes I had a meal that was bomb!
Hey hey!! I’m new here and recently subscribed ❤. Just wanted to say I appreciate your sharing these videos and I’m new to this journey (4mth)now and realized I’m not gaining “healthy “ weight. I feel like I’m losing. Hopefully it’s a protein thing but I look forward too binging your videos for some new recipes ❤
The burger salad looks so good. I have to find those grounds because I think my husband would enjoy it too. More than the soy based products.
Thank you!! I love making it. I think he would enjoy them too. My hubby has had them and enjoyed them
With your rice use 2 cups water, 1 cup of rice clean rice, bring water to a boil add some unrefined coconut oil use your judgment, then add 2 dashes of paprika and chili powder, once this boils add rice and steam cook
Thank you for the tips!
I’m transitioning to vegetarian so I love your video!
❤😊❤😊 Welcome back!
I just use my instant pot for rice. It comes out great to me. Might want to consider it bc you can do more than one function with a instant pot. 😊
Thats a good idea! I have one too and will try using it for my rice
I tried a kombucha from Aldi recently. It was really good. Gonna add that to my diet?
I am here to get inspired. 💖
I love kombucha (have some now) and the coconut water (need to get) with it sounds delish!
I don't know why I always forget about burger bowls. They sound yummy, but I never make them. I am putting it on my menu for this week. Mine won't be quite as healthy as yours because I will use Impossible burger and either romaine or iceberg shreds. 😉
I prefer saurkraut over kimchi. I wanted to like kimchi.... 😂
Shitakes are SO GOOD in a mushroom udon noodle I get at the store.
I am going to try the grated tofu. I have seen it a few times and have yet to try it. Thanks!
Im so glad you're here! I've made the burger bowls with Beyond Meat and really liked it so Im sure you'll enjoy it with impossible meat as well.
Yeah, I think sauerkraut is my new fav. Its so delicious!!
Welcome back🎉🎉🎉
Bring rice to a boil then turn down the heat to it's lowest setting and cover. That works for me. Hope it helps.
Thank you so much!!
I’m definitely going to try this. Thanks
Hope you enjoy
Welcome back!
I love your videos!! 💗💗Keep them coming🙌🙌🙌Have you tried a Rice cooker? Since you asked help with cooking rice 🍚; also pressure cooker makes really good rice on the rice setting 😊
Not yet!
Best way to make white rice
1 cup of rice, wash it
1.5 cup of water
Bring to the boil with a lid on
Once boiled turned to low and let it steam for 14 minutes
Take off the heat and let it sit for 10 minutes
*chefs kiss*
Thank youuuu!
Cooking rice is about ratios. 2 parts water to 1 part rice. The second it starts boiling let it go 30 seconds and stir then close with lid and lower the power of the flame to ĺow. Let it continue to cook. And just like that rice is perfect 😊
Thanks for the tips!
We sure missed you and glad you are back. I need some help with breakfast ideas because I do not like oatmeal at all. I have tried it several times but just can't get with it. What else do you suggest?
Glad to be back! Here's a RUclips short I posted a while ago with 11 ideas! I hope it helps ruclips.net/user/shortsMWISunDk_5U?si=QrSTuV-nBWRAOtKR
@@Shakaylafelice Thank you so much. Im going to try a few of these recipes. The only issue that I have is that I am having trouble finding the just egg here in GA. I will keep looking though. You are such an inspiration honey and I thank you for that.
Glad I found this channel. 🙏🏾❤️
Thanks for being here!
Rice. I bring to a quick boil then simmer on low for 15- 20 mins lid on.
