I love everything about your channels. Just found you a day or 2 ago and I can not stop watching. So tired of vegan vloggers eating plain baked potato with chickpeas, lettuce and sriracha.... so NOT exciting. All of your food has such flavour and excitement. And not to mention pretty easy to make. You're inspiring and definitely helping me with finding my way as a vegan. MUCH LOVE from Barrie xo
my absolute favourite thing about 'Recipe?!' videos is watching your thought process towards the final recipe... since we already know what you're making because of the title it keeps me on the edge of my seat as you get closer and closer. like you started off as a salad, but then you decide "maybe I could make a wrap instead" 😂
Anyone wondering what to use instead of cashews because of allergies, sunflower seeds work great, and if you live in Europe they are WAYWAYWAYWAY cheaper.
The dressing is amazing!!!.. I guess the secret is in the roasted garlic!.. The taste reminded me of the Cesar Salad I ate long time ago!.. Five stars to this 'recipe?'!
Legit obsessed with everything Lauren does for hot for food but at EXTRA IMPRESSED with these recipe? videos. You're giving me inspiration and motivation to use up all the gunk in my fridge!
~~ATTENTION EVERYONE~~ : I made the hotforfood ceasar salad tonight (with kale and tempeh) and made the tofu dressing version instead of cashews*, and it turned out AMAZINGGGG. Sooo creamy!! Best flavor! I am making this ALL THE TIME!! YOU GUYS HAVE TO TRY IT! * : Made with tofu not because I am allergic to cashews, but because (1) tofu is sooo much cheaper (2) can make w/o any preparation (i.e., soaking cashews overnight) (3) tofu is less calorie dense so the dish is just as creamy, while being lighter!
I love your spontaneous recipes. I do that all the time at my house. we even have very similar creative cooking skills with a side of confidence. love that about you. it keeps me watching your videos :)
I seriously freaking love your channel so much. No one on youtube has inspired me more than you Lauren! The RECIPE?! series is so realistic and informational, trying to create meals from what you have in your fridge is an everyday challenge. You rock Lauren!
Yay cashew substitutes! The wrap looks epic, Lauren =) I liked that there was one shot of you putting stuff in the blender and you could see John standing on the counter in the reflection of the spoon XD
I'm a dedicated meat eater but I regularly do meatless meals just because yum and I am sooooo rotating you into my meal planning! I've not seen one video that didn't look absolutely delicious! Thanks so much for creating these and sharing \m/
Hot for food is such an amazing vegan channel ! One of the best, Lauren you're great !! (and John too), can't wait to recreate this ! (if you like this channel, you should check out JessBeautician, her vegan recipes are also pretty amazing and very original !) Love from Paris xx
I hope it won't sound too crazy but every time you post a new video, I watch it two times in a row. I don't understand why but it calms me or something. Wednesday is now my favorite day of the week! Thank you for the work you do! :)
Lauren you are so brilliant! You make cooking delicious vegan food from scratch look so easy. Love your recipes/channel/blog/you. Keep doing what you do!
***** same. I had these vegan chicken nuggets that tasted exactly like the real thing and I almost puked. Not because it tasted bad, it tasted really good, but it just felt like I was eating animal flesh which is disgusting
guccifer yeah once I was in Tofino (in British Columbia, Canada) and everyone was having maritime food like fish and chips so I thought I would try a vegan version which had vegan shrimp and vegan fish fillets... I couldn't take a second bite because I almost puked! It was just TOO similar. The texture, the taste... ughhh. But I think it's good these products exist for the people transitioning and wanting to still eat these things!
Super amazing Recipes? Love it! we need more videos like this for the new veg heads. If you can't handle Cashews or Tofu I'd suggest White Beans aka Cannellini Beans. Cannellini Beans are soooo versatile, just as much as tofu IMO. Try it!
I LOVE wraps. They're my go to for the summer hands down, which is why I'm eating one for lunch right now. LOL. I wasn't too jazzed about the other vegan bacon recipes you had but the tofu bacon bits in this vid look amazing. I can't wait to give it a try.
Thank you for providing amazing delicious vegan recipies on your blog and RUclips! you guys are my favorite vegan RUclips channel! I always look forward to your videos! 👏👍🔥😃🎉
I wish they'd put you on the food network. I'm working towards vegetarian and I think a lot of people would start changing 1 day a week if they had this as a tool!
I'm new to the vegan lifestyle and I'm not a fan of tofu but you made that look so good, I wish that you had showed how to make chicken tofu. I would love to try this recipe.
girl i used to love watching you on MUCH back in the day haha love your video's and recipies even tho im not even vegan but your videos makes me change my mind.
I just finished my dinner but now that I watch this video, I'm hungry again! Lol. I wish I could be as creative as you when it comes to make my own recipes with what's left in my fridge. Most of the time, my trials are epic fails while yours are delicious. Wish I had your intuition when it comes to cooking! x Davie
I always direct people to hot for food because every single thing they make looks and is DELICIOUS! If y'all open up a restaurant I'm moving to Canada.
Thanks for the tofu option! Where we live you have to drive a half hour to a health food store just to find raw cashews, and then they are so expensive. I was dying to make the dressing, but couldn't do the cashews. Can't wait to try this!
Love this! Have you seen the TV show Chopped? You and John should definitely do a video inspired by chopped when you pick out 4 random ingredients for each other that you have to use in a recipe!!
YES FINALLY MY DAYS OF SEARCHING FOR A CASHEWLESS DRESSING ARE OVER! Cesar salad was the first salad I liked and when I went vegan I was so sad I couldn't eat it.
I do the same thing, smell then taste to see if they are still good. Thanks Lauren. Taking the day to catch up on videos I havent seen or want to rewatch.
***** Because of the damage that the toxic oils cause to the workers' hands-- and they often aren't offered gloves. Me being able to eat cashews isn't worth more than their health and safety.
love this video but can you please do more savoury things like this please because theres been alot of sweet recipes recently. Also more challenges they're my fav, love having 2 recipes in one video
Your channel is so well put together and so well edited! You guys are such down to earth and beautiful people and I look forward to every new upload! :)
I really envy you people living in the US and Canada, you have a lot more variety when it comes to vegan food. I have yet to see (or rather, taste) a really decent (and affordable) chicken substitute in Germany.
I made this soooo much, probably the 10th recipe of yours I've tried and it's so damn good!!! My tofu didn't get crispy enough, but my issue not yours lol.!
I'm from Niagara Falls...I love that you are from Toronto...need to know where you purchase most of your Vegan products, like Vegan butter, cheese, meatless ground round, chicken, etc. I have been on my journey to becoming Vegan and am having trouble finding things....would really love your help! Thanks Maria
i freaking LOVE hot lettuce OMG!!!! it is so so soooo good haha I think you like it too Lauren I remember you mentioning it in the taco video I think, I would still grill the heck out of those ceaser wraps! 😀😀😀😀
"And I ignore you because I love cashews" hahaha one of many reasons why Lauren's the best
THIS is the channel I tell people to watch when I hear the old "what do vegans even eat? Lettuce?" 🙌🏽
same! and the ones that say vegans are all like the bitchy vegan military 😉
+wiebkiiili hahahah so true :) if you guys are looking for more recipes, check out my channel too. Lots of really easy and delicious vegan recipes :)
same XD
+Reveena's Kitchen you know what? i just hopped over to your channel and all the food looks so good! so i subscribed! 😃
+wiebkiiili OMG YAYYYYY THANK YOU!!!! I feel so unclassy posting about my channel on hot for food videos but it just seems like a similar audience :P

Ikr
Bless you
also white beans!
you are a saint
I'm allergic to sunflower seeds too 😂😭
I'm genuinely excited to make the caesar dressing without cashews! I'm pretty excited to make the bacon bits as well! .... I'm just excited!
does anyone else love seeing how long it takes Lauren to figure out what she's making, it's almost like a game of hot or cold
The dressing is amazing!!!.. I guess the secret is in the roasted garlic!.. The taste reminded me of the Cesar Salad I ate long time ago!.. Five stars to this 'recipe?'!
THANK YOU!!!!!
I love how real you are. Great job inspiring all of us. Big Thanks
thanks so much for watching
I love this channel btw and I'm not even vegan, u guys are amazing chefs and have inspired me too to get creative in the kitchen 😊
Same!!! This is just a great cooking channel I've made their recipes and it has nothing to do with it being vegan they just look delicious
ditto!!!
That's the same reason I subscribed too (but I've been converted to veganism now lol)
same!!
I wasn't vegan when I subscribed either!!! I love that they make all of this so accessible and easy to try. It helped me change.

I'm so addicted to your channel, I wish you guys posted more than once a week! Even if you were just recording more of the recipes from your blog!
Awesome as always! That 'chicken' looks amazing, I don't think we have anything like that here in the UK
Hot for food is such an amazing vegan channel ! One of the best, Lauren you're great !! (and John too), can't wait to recreate this ! (if you like this channel, you should check out JessBeautician, her vegan recipes are also pretty amazing and very original !)
Love from Paris xx

7 years later, I seem to be watching all of your Recipe?! videos again. Good stuff!
Glad you like them! thank you!
Have you ever made a video on your hair? Like what products you use, etc?? It's SO PERFECT
That chicken breast looks so real it's scary
right!!?!??! ive never seen that, so crazy
I'm actually bothered by it :/ I don't like when they use it because it just looks too real. I would prefer Portobello Mushrooms or something :)
***** same. I had these vegan chicken nuggets that tasted exactly like the real thing and I almost puked. Not because it tasted bad, it tasted really good, but it just felt like I was eating animal flesh which is disgusting

what kind of vegan chicken is this? I would love to know
The wraps Look great. Love this girls personality.
Pure plant based genius-ness! Keep it up Lauren!!!
That dressing is EVERYTHING! OMGGG 😍😍
Super amazing Recipes? Love it! we need more videos like this for the new veg heads. If you can't handle Cashews or Tofu I'd suggest White Beans aka Cannellini Beans. Cannellini Beans are soooo versatile, just as much as tofu IMO. Try it!
Lauren, you're a genius! These Recipe?! videos are my absolute fave!
that background music makes my heart swoon for hot for food.
I LOVE wraps. They're my go to for the summer hands down, which is why I'm eating one for lunch right now. LOL. I wasn't too jazzed about the other vegan bacon recipes you had but the tofu bacon bits in this vid look amazing. I can't wait to give it a try.

girl i used to love watching you on MUCH back in the day haha love your video's and recipies even tho im not even vegan but your videos makes me change my mind.
I have to try your vegan salad dressing, caesar is my absolute favorite! I'm on my third day of being of vegan and loving it :) Thanks Lauren!
Congrats on going vegan!! Keep it up
Try just ceasar dressing it's awesome!! And if you make Hot for Food's cauliflower wing and dip it, it tastes like bacon for some reason lol
I just finished my dinner but now that I watch this video, I'm hungry again! Lol. I wish I could be as creative as you when it comes to make my own recipes with what's left in my fridge. Most of the time, my trials are epic fails while yours are delicious. Wish I had your intuition when it comes to cooking! x Davie
Oh my goodness this looks so good! I've been Vegan for 3 days now and loving it so much!
awesome! So happy for you :D Thanks so much!

Awesome ☺
when you bit the fork my stomach turned haha I can't handle that sound!
This was the only thing that I got at McDonald's before I was vegan , so this is amazing I finally get to have it again.
FINALLY THANKU I've been waiting for a dressing with no nuts hallelujah
I knew it look like Gardein! Which is Fabulous by the way
I'm not even vegan but these look so amazing, I'll definitely be trying them out!
Love this! Have you seen the TV show Chopped? You and John should definitely do a video inspired by chopped when you pick out 4 random ingredients for each other that you have to use in a recipe!!
YES FINALLY MY DAYS OF SEARCHING FOR A CASHEWLESS DRESSING ARE OVER! Cesar salad was the first salad I liked and when I went vegan I was so sad I couldn't eat it.
I CANNOT believe this channel hasn't hit 1Million subs yet. It's so AMAZING I just can't...😱🌱
sooooon ;) hahaha Thanks for the love!
That chicken looks so realistic it's scary!
I'm soooo trying this as soon as I possibly can. My mouth is watering omfg
I love these recipe? Videos! I hope you keep doing them!
I want this so badly right nowww. I'm not vegan but that irrelevant it looks so goooood
I have been craving this lately, HOW DID YOU GUYS KNOW?!
They know all
I do the same thing, smell then taste to see if they are still good. Thanks Lauren. Taking the day to catch up on videos I havent seen or want to rewatch.
By the way, taste-wise, would you recommend the cashew or tofu ceasar dressing?
Cashew
Tried the recipe and LOVED it!!! Thank you
Every time you do a Recipe? video, you nail it flawlessly! I'm sitting over here feeling proud for you, haha.
Never thought those bacon bits would turn out looking that delicious!
Make vegan BBQ pls!
charcoal bbq edition ;)
She has...
+Ian Dawson charcoal bbq? the one you can't grill soft and mushy patties on? :o
I cant seem to find the video, can you give me its title?
Grominblix She has made bbq. but i dont know what you mean by charcoal bbq
+Ian Dawson its a type of grill where you cook your food on burning charcoal
Grominblix So you want her to cook on a charcoal bbq grill? Why?
What brand of "chicken" did you use? Looks scary real, which is perfect for tricking my non-vegan boyfriend!
I need to know! I'd love to try it
probably gardein
in the description its called chik'un maybe that will help you.
in the blog she says its PC Blue Menu vegetarian chicken breats!
imagine he tricked you into eating meat 😑
chicken and bacon and dressing, so delicious looking.
OMG everything looks so delicious that u both make! Thank you for doing what u do and inspire!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awesome!
I've been avoiding cashews-- but for ethical reasons. So happy it's just as easy to make the dressing with tofu! 😊
***** Because of the damage that the toxic oils cause to the workers' hands-- and they often aren't offered gloves.
Me being able to eat cashews isn't worth more than their health and safety.
***** you're lucky to be able to buy locally!
I'm in northern Canada and we can't really grow much. Too cold and too rocky.
omg I'm so happy about this video!!!!! xx
I absolutely love your guys' new kitchen 😍
I had everything in my fridge and I made this for lunch it was so good thank you!
NICE!!! :D
YUM! Looks soo delicious!!
I love your recipe videos! Cant wait to try and make this one day.
I'm allergic to food, what can I use???
bleach
HAHA
When you are allergic to food you figure out what to use as substitutions.
Air
Hey Lauren! I made this tonight and it was delicious!
This is why I love tofu, so versitale! Btw, the Recipe?! videos are my fav. ;)

I just love these videos where you just kind of wing it! This is how everyone should be cooking! ^__^
I really envy you people living in the US and Canada, you have a lot more variety when it comes to vegan food. I have yet to see (or rather, taste) a really decent (and affordable) chicken substitute in Germany.
Obsessed.....binging.....delicious 👏🏼🙏🏼❤️Kathy
