this should be called 'things david makes for me'

I would absolutely love to see a video about how you set up your georg dinner table, including flowers and decoration and how you present the food, if you know what i mean?! <3

[Psaltrymom]

Don't laugh. Here's my go-to that I NEVER tire eating. I LOVE to cook a batch of (dried & peeled) fava beans along w/ potatoes in my Instant Pot. (1 cup dried beans, 300g potatoes, and 3 cups water.) When done, mash them! The beans turn the mashed potatoes a beautiful yellow hinge. Top it in a bowl w/sautéd kale, sliced raw red onions, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. I never tire of it!

[RachelTeeKae]

Jenny, I was so sad when you quit making vegan videos. I’m definitely happy right now. 😃🙏🏼

[DanielSanchez-oiet]

I missed your cooking videos I used to watch since 2016. Hi from Colombia 🇨🇴

[leedublin]

Thanks... more please! I started watching you years ago because of your vegan content, your presentations are amazing!

[Liv.G]

oatmeal with mushrooms, cabbage or kale, miso, tamari, garlic, peanut butter powder sauce

[lindsaytoussaint]

I remember your pan fried tofu video from back in the day - I still make my tofu this way when I’m not too lazy and just throw it in the air fryer. Your vids were SO helpful when I first turned vegan in 2016. 💚

My food I can eat every day is oats/porridge. Savory or sweet, warm or cold - doesn’t matter. Also tofu, collard greens, green beans, potatoes, and hot sauce! All day every day.

My staple is home cooked Mexican bean stew. My grandma and mom always made this for us growing up so as an adult I make it all the time. Especially in college, I would make a bunch of it in my instapot every week, freeze some and eat it throughout the week. I just don’t get sick of it. And since I was taught to soak the beans overnight and then rinse before cooking they don’t cause any digestive troubles for me. It’s very versatile too, you can eat it as is (YUM!) or add it to many dishes. I often mix it with rice to change the texture, which is also great for meal prepping your own little burritos to freeze which I also did a lot in college. You can also blend the stew to make like a creamy refried beans texture that’s great as a dip or to make dishes like “molletes” (yum yum yum!)

[lilyssevilla]

My lunch I bring to work which is shoving white miso, shredded carrots and pepper, a piece of nori, silken tofu and soy sauce and sesame oil in a jar and then adding hot water! I can’t believe how delicious it is everyday:)

[kattyude]

I'm vegan too! and honestly a good korma curry with lots of tofu plus a side of naan, as well as any asian style stirfy that has lots of veggies noodles and a sticky sweet sour sauce I could easily have every day.

[Alaskaventureswithbrodie]

I do a tofu scramble in the morning with the spice blend of (nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, Kala Namak, Thai Spice and Tumeric), spinach. Then I top with sauerkraut and a little brown mustard. Delish!

[Hanneninah]

My all time comfort foods are mushroom risotto (with porcini mushrooms, I always keep some dried at home and a little bit goes a looong way) and spicy sticky tofu with coconut rice and broccoli. I could eat these every day (and I cook them almost every week) 🌸

[FaustineJL]

The granola is back! I used to make this recipe so much in 2016/2017, your original youtube video is gone but thankfully the website post is still up, I had forgotten about it and need to make it again asap!
Currently my staple dish is tofu, rice, green beans or broccoli and the most delicious peanut butter sauce that basically has the trinity of condiments with the hot sauce being gochujang, it's amazing!

[sally_]

Jenny, this congee recipe has changed my life. I saw it in your first video and tried it out (we cook it in our Instant Pot so it takes about half an hour) and now I’m eating it most days! We use kala namak salt and liquid smoke and garlic powder in the stock. Today I added kombu to the mix as well. I can’t thank you enough, you’ve changed my eating habits for the better.

[LauraSallaerts]

I expected oats to be on here 😄 My daily craving are oats with some kind of seeds, oat milk, nut butter and fruit!

[Elena-pqyp]

My top everyday staple 5 foods (ingredients) would have to be:

1 Peanut butter
2 Bananas
3 Japanese Sweet potatoes
4 Tempeh
5 Oats

oh, jenny ❤ how i loved your cooking videos from back in the days ... 😊😋 i even went that far to buy the french version of your cookbook since i couldn't find an english copy (my french isn't the greatest 😅 but still enough to follow the instructions). love your take on vegan nutrition!

[carolinelandreth]

I still love a perfect avocado toast for brunch or lunch. Wheat sourdough toasted, perfectly ripe avocado mash, salt, chili crisp oil, and I like to top with raw pumpkin seeds and serve with a side of fruit or tomato.

[julietcapulet]

You should try making indian kitchari! It's quite similar to congee, except it's made with split mung beans and rice. You add tempered curry leaves, cumin seeds, ginger, dried red chili, and turmeric as the spice. I sometimes add indian garlic pickle as a little funky spiciness for extra flavor! :) it takes like 20 min to put together if you have an instant pot :)
