We finally made a “What We Eat In A Day” video for you! This has been one of our most requested videos since we started our YouTube Channel. Brian keeps saying that what we eat in a day is boring, but I know it can be helpful for people to see it all laid out! We really do eat the same stuff we’ve been sharing on our recipe videos, so you’ll see a few familiar things pop up! Continue reading
By my calculations, we have made about 20 giant batches of chili in the past 14 months. That is a LOT of chili! Brian has had so many chances to experiment and tinker with the spice blend and honestly, every batch has been super tasty…BUT… he made this version a few weeks ago and I knew that he had finally nailed it. So I am officially dubbing this “Brian’s Super Tasty Vegan Chili.” Continue reading
When we started this journey, our number one goal was to lose weight. I started out at 285 pounds and Brian was 514 pounds, so we both had a TON of weight to lose. We chose our path on a whim after hearing about what Penn Jillette did to lose weight, so we really didn’t know what was in store for us. The other day we were chatting about how things have changed over this past 14 months. It turns out, there are a lot of unexpected things we have experienced as a result of switching to a whole food, plant-based (WFPB) diet, so we thought we’d share! Continue reading
One of our staple recipes over the past year has been what we lovingly call our “Weird Green Soup.” Since we make it so often, we’ve had a chance to play around with the recipe quite a bit! One of our favorite variations is an Italian inspired version, so we thought we’d share it with you. This one turned out with a mostly orange hue, so we decided to dub it our “Weird Orange Soup.” Continue reading
Who doesn’t love a good taco bar? You might think this is something you would have to give up when switching to a whole food, plant-based diet – but that is definitely not the case! We love baking up our own oil-free taco shells at home and loading them up with all kinds of toppings. Continue reading
Ketchup is something we had pretty much given up after switching to a whole food, plant-based diet since most store-bought versions are FULL of added salt, oil, sugar, etc. We always figured making our own would be a pain… but we recently discovered that we were so wrong! Continue reading
Since switching to a whole food, plant-based diet, it can be a little tricky going out to dinner with family or friends. Brian’s mom wanted Italian for her birthday, so we decided on Olive Garden. We have been there a few times since making the switch to WFPB, so we knew we’d be able to find something to enjoy. Continue reading
A lot of people have been asking how we use our Griddler for oil-free cooking, so we thought we’d put together a little demo video. We also included the recipe for Brian’s Chili-Spiced Hash Browns! Check it out and let us know what you cook on your Griddler. Continue reading
Since we started sharing our whole food, plant-based weight loss journey, we have been getting a TON of questions, so we thought we’d pick ten of the most popular “personal” ones and answer them in a video. Check it out and let us know if you have any questions for future videos! Continue reading
If you’ve been following along, you know that we recently embarked on a 10-day starch-based diet called “Mary’s Mini.” We originally set out to complete 10 days of this “challenge,” but decided to extend it an extra 8 days. Read on for a recap of what we’ve been eating, how we’ve been feeling and how much weight we’ve lost! Continue reading
