Why I (almost) always make these 2 creamy pastas for vegan skeptics

Making meals for people who aren't vegan isn't always easy, especially if they know you'll be making a vegan meal. It's like you say, hey, check out this vegan mango and all the sudden they hate mangoes. The word vegan for a lot of people means that the food will have no flavor, taste like water or just all around no way it can be good.

These vegan creamy pasta dishes will wow anyone, even if they are skeptical at first. It's two that I have made for family and friends often and I know that people in your life (or even you, if you are watching and a bit skeptical yourself) will love too!

Check out these ideas and let me know which one you try (it should be all 2).

What’s the one plant based food most vegans seem to love, that you can’t stand?

Two small bits of info if you are watching the budget .... Buy a block of solid coconut Coconut milk is made up from around 10% solid and 90% water .... You can reconstitute a small portion of the block by adding water. It lasts for weeks in a block. You can also make it as creamy as you want. It is a fraction of the cost. And blitz up your own chick pea flour .... It is very easy to do and is around a tenth of the cost of bought versions. ;)

I made your Penne alla vodka so many times I have the recipe memorized. I add some vegan meatballs to the pasta. My husband is a huge meat eater, in fact anytime I am making a meatless dinner he cries out, "what am I going to do without meat?!!" Yet, when I make this pasta he never whines. In fact, he requests this dish, and has even contemplated going vegetarian because this dish has introduced him to how amazingly delicious vegan dishes can be. Thank you!!

Okay, I must get this out of the way, the first 3+ minutes of the video are excellent... the subtle background music, the gentle scraping sounds of the bowls, not a word from Andrew, the dropping & tapping sounds ALL together had me captivated. Well done!

Okay, now to watch the rest of the video!

I normally don't like asmr type recipe videos, but yours are paced perfectly. It's also very cute how you sneak the items into the frame. It's delightful. I'm not vegan, but I make your recipes sometimes! We enjoy watching! San Marzanos--yes!!! And buying them whole, then crushing yourself ensures quality--no pieces and parts.

I'm definitely gonna try the first recipe! Loving your channel, bro. You've just helped me (last week) getting out of a 6 months bad state of mind and getting into cooking again. Thanks a lot, and keep teaching us! Cheers from Brazil. Peace!

[kjmcarl]

Just so you know- I always “like” your videos before they even start because I know I am going to love them 😀

[chekeshadueberry]

Love this! Made it for dinner with my daughters. We just started eating plant based 4 weeks, and I'm so thankful we found this channel. Very relatable and easy to follow. You make cooking vegan easy and approachable. PLUS, so far, every recipe we've tried *chef kiss**👍🏾 This video is definitely getting a share.

[fawncraig-schwartz]

Wow you may be my new favorite, just subscribed! Really love this format. ..watching you put the recipe together is both relaxing and inspiring and then the way you sit down and have a chat with us after each recipe. Even your kitchen backdrop is a pleasure to view. Can't wait to start making your recipes. Thanks for the content!

I made both of these pastas this week. So delicious. My daughter loved them both. You have a very nice channel, easy to follow the recipes and nice music 👏👏👏👍 thank you

[marsmarv]

I throw in some shaved fennel, home sun/oven dried tomatoes, zucchini, capers and for extra proteins and micronutrients a hand full of chickpeas. I don't care if it is not a classic dish, but it is richer and more filling.

For the shroom pasta I add some veggie meatless balls made from shrooms, shaved sweet potato, oats, nuts, scallions, bunch of fresh marjoram/thyme and some chickpea and flaxseed flour for binding and extra nutrition...
Good job with the channel Andrew, big shout out from Serbia :)

[MeimeiLovesmusic]

You are an absolute joy to watch, listen and watch!! Learning so much from you!! Cinematography of your videos is gorgeous!! Love your vegan creative delicious recipes!!

[MartiesPlants]

I have been making your recipes for a few months now. Just when I think I have a favorite, I find one more awesome recipe in your line up. This is beyond amazing. I plan on making on a regular basis and serving it up to my skeptics!!

[MegaYouNiko]

Andrew, I can't praise you enough for the amazing high-quality content you deliver. After watching a few videos, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this channel doesn't have seven figure subscribers. Keep up the great work, your videos are so incredibly visually pleasing!
I also can't stand mushrooms for the life of me, I just went ahead and justified it by saying that I am vegan, therefore I only eat plants :P

[katiemoore]

Love the enormous amounts of garlic you put in everything.

[karldunn]

love the way you make these vids. Cook then talk. Easy to digest and implement. My guyyy!

[lorrainethomas]

I haven't made vodka penne in a while. I'll be rectifying that soon. Really appreciate your consistent inspiration for my menu planning.

[jbasti]

This is the second video I’ve seen if your channel since coming across it last night and I really like the format of your videos between listing the ingredients as you prep them, putting it all together, and giving a backstory for that recipe and why you enjoy it

[mishannallsmig]

OMGoodness, I now have two new dishes that I HAVE GOT TO MAKE!

Excellent video, thank you Andrew for sharing this with us!
