no, when I make bananas?

Hi guys, it's Candice the Edgy Veg
and I thought it'd be super fun today
to try and copy someone else's
what I eat in a day video
and I chose Rose, from Cheap Lazy Vegan.
She's just like a real
down to earth, vegan chick.
Like, I think if she lived in Toronto,
we'd be great friends,
she's just like realistic,
in terms of her recipes and her outlook
and I love that!
So I thought that I would try
eating like her for a day,
because I do love her recipes.
They're always quick, simple, easy, cheap.
I guess that's why she's
called the Cheap Lazy Vegan.
So, I'm going to follow
this what I eat in a day
vegan simple and healthy meals,
what I eat in a day video from her.
I'm starting off with my coffee,
the first thing she had was
a glass of water and coffee.
I had my glass of water, I'm
now gonna drink this coffee.
This is just a coffee
I made in a mocha with
macadamia nut milk and it's delicious.
And it's in my C cup.
So, if you're new here,
I am Candice, welcome
to the Edgy Veg.
Make sure to hit that subscribe button
and bell notifications,
so you can see my face
twice a week, every Tuesday
and Thursday at 4:00pm
and let me know in the
comment section below
if you have another YouTuber
that you want me to eat like.
I'll read your comments
and if they're good,
I'll do your suggestion.
If they're bad, well,
I'll probably tell you.
(laughs)
I kind of wrote down
everything that she eats,
which is a lot actually.
Her breakfast is like a huge smoothie
and then also toast with
hummus and alfalfa sprouts
and a coffee and water.
It's a lot, it's a lot of food.
I barely eat breakfast ever,
like I never eat breakfast,
so this is going to be
a bit of a struggle,
but I'm going to try and follow
as much as possible her recipes,
depending on what I have in the house.
I might make some minor substitutions
if I don't have some of these products.
Let's start making this smoothie.
I am making Rose's like 45
ingredient breakfast smoothie.
No shade, Rose.
I think it's great that you add
so much stuff to your smoothies, I'm just,
I'm not as prepared as you are.
So I have some spinach in there.
I'm gonna add some frozen banana.
This way I don't have to add any ice.
I guess I am, I like frozen fruit too,
but whatever, I mean a banana is a fruit.
What am I talking about?
I don't know.
Apparently, I need to
drink more of this coffee.
When I have leftover bananas,
I like to cut them up and put
them in a container like this
and keep them in my
freezer so I always have
bananas on hand that are
frozen for smoothies.
My berries of choice are raspberries,
because that's what I have.
So, we're adding our frozen berries.
(spoon scraping)
Apparently only this much.
(bowl clanging)
Is this the content you came for?
(spoon scraping)
Okay.
Protein powder, I'm using
the Profi protein powder,
it's just vanilla.
I only like to do half a scoop,
because I'm not like a big body builder
and I don't think I need that much.
The logic there, makes sense in my mind,
don't come at me in the comment section.
Then, we are going to
add some hemp hearts.
I'm going to do like a tablespoon.
It's gonna be a packed smoothie.
I don't know how I'm going
to eat toast after this.
Flaxseeds, it'll last longer
if you keep it in the freezer.
Fun tip for you today.
We've got chia seeds.
♪ Ch ch ch chia ♪
Oh no, good, she's eating
a raspberry on my sofa.
Harley, that's gonna stain.
Okay, she also adds spirulina.
I don't have spirulina, but I have this,
which is just like blue green algae.
It smells like the ocean.
She also adds, a like, grains powder.
I got this at a trade show.
I never know how to use these things,
so this perfect day for it.
Now some almond milk.
So, she also adds some
fresh ginger and one date.
(blender grinding)
Along with Rose's smoothie,
she also makes toast
with hummus and sprouts.
She uses alfalfa sprouts,
the store that is near me
was out of that, so I'm
using broccoli sprouts,
which I believe are a bit more,
like they have a sharper flavor.
I made toast, now I'm
adding hummus to said toast.
Ooh, this is the content you came for.
Some sprouts and voila.
Time for the smoothie.
Oh, that's a good one, look watch.
Ah hah, stands up straight.
Let's try this.
(upbeat music)
Hmm, it's very nice actually.
You can't really taste
any of the super foods,
I'm mostly just tasting
raspberry and banana.
(toast crunches)
I never would've thought of
this as a breakfast food,
more of like a lunch,
like I've done like a hummus sandwich
with sprouts and like tofu on it.
It's really quite nice
for a breakfast food.
Well done, Rose.
Thank you for introducing me to this.
(upbeat music)
For lunch, Rose cooked together this like
it's almost like a tofu steamed vegetable
stir fry thing, with a spicy Korean sauce,
so that's what I'm going to make.
She had Chinese broccoli,
the store near me didn't
have that, they were out,
so I just got normal broccoli.
I realize that they're not the same thing.
Baby bok choy here, some tofu,
oh and soba noodles.
All right, so I'm just adding
the veggies right to the pan.
She steamed them with just
a little bit of water,
so I just have these on medium high.
Going to add some water
and let these veggies do their thing.
(pan sizzling)
Rose seasoned her veggies
with some maple syrup,
some garlic salt, 'cause she
didn't have garlic powder.
So, I'm going to do the same thing.
Some maple syrup,
going with some garlic salt.
Really simple way to season your veggies.
It's simple and super yummy.
I do something similar with my veggies
when I'm cooking a stir fry just for one.
I'm going to remove these from the pan
and just fry up some tofu.
In her video, she had
leftover medium tofu,
I have leftover firm tofu,
not a huge difference,
but I'm going to fry that up.
All right, I have half a block here.
It's just me, so I'm just going
to cook up about four pieces.
There's a little bit of a sauce
leftover from the veggies,
I'm just going to use the same pot.
I'll season with a little
bit of garlic salt.
And I'm just cook them like
three, four minutes on each side
until it's nice and brown.
I have some kamut and
buckwheat pasta, soba noodles.
So I'm gonna cook up enough
for one person, that's me.
Oh God, stay.
Put it right in the pot
and I'm going to cook that
for about eight minutes,
the packages says, yes,
eight to ten minutes.
All right, set my timer for that.
I'm going to whip
together her quick sauce.
It's like a spicy noodle sauce,
so I have some soy
sauce in this bowl here.
How many times can I say sauce?
She adds some Korean red pepper paste.
I'm not even going to attempt
to pronounce this properly.
- [Cameraman] Is is it
(speaks in foreign language)?
- That, yes, what he said.
(speaks in foreign language)
- [Cameraman] (speaks in foreign language)
- (speaks in foreign language)
I'm borderline offensive
trying to pronounce that.
Some apple cider vinegar into this sauce.
Splash of water, and mix it together.
Come on.
(fork scraping)
I need my tiny blender back.
(fork scraping)
I miss my tiny blender.
All right I'm gonna
sit here and whisk this
while the noodles are boiling.
The soba noodles are cooked and drained,
she rinsed hers under cold water,
I'm going to do the same.
(water pouring)
I'm now adding the sauce
to the cold noodles.
And I'm just going to mix it all together.
Now, I don't usually have cold noodles,
I'm more of a warm noodle gal, myself,
but I'll try anything once.
So, we've got the greens.
Oh no, runaway broccoli!
And we've got the tofu.
Okay, and then she tops
hers with sesame seeds.
There we go.
Lunched is served.
Let's have a little
bit of everything here.
Grab some noodles.
All right, first foray into cold noodles.
Oh, it's real spicy.
Good thing I like spice.
It's quick simple meal.
I think the next time I make this,
I would keep the noodles warmed
just because the whole cold noodle
and warm tofu thing is throwing me off,
but they're pretty tasty.
All right, I'm going to go eat my lunch,
do some work, and I'll
see you for snack time.
Hi Harley.
For a snack, Rose ate some blueberries,
so I'm just eating some
blueberries, hanging with Harley.
Rose took her vitamins.
Now, I don't take a daily multivitamin,
but I do take antidepressants.
I don't take, like my antidepressant
isn't super high dose.
It's for situational depression
and also anxiety that I've been having
for the better part of
like two and half years.
I decided after two and
a half years to medicate.
It was a decision that
I made with my doctor
and my therapist, and it changed my life.
If you are going through
something really difficult
and hard, you know, ask
for help, it's okay.
So I take one of these every day.
It definitely helps with my depression,
helps with my anxiety, immensely.
Like, it's completely changed
my life with my anxiety.
If you guys are interested
in learning more,
or want me to do some like,
I don't know muff bung
about like anxiety, depression,
how I deal with that,
just let me know in the comments below.
(pills rattling)
It's dinnertime!
So, Rose wanted to make this
charred cauliflower situation,
so I'm going to try and make that.
I'm heating up a pan over super high heat,
adding some olive oil.
And because I'm cooking for just me,
it's just a little bit of cauliflower.
So I'm cooking it on super high heat
because we want the cauliflower to char.
She cooked it in the
oven for like 12 minutes
and 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
I'm going to cook it in the Air Fryer,
but first let's see if
I can char the bottoms
of this cauliflower.
(pan sizzling)
All right, I'm adding in
some garlic salt and thyme,
as well as nutritional yeast.
(pan sizzling)
Chop up some tofu into cubes.
All right, and then we are
going to pan fry these.
I'm transferring the cauliflower,
which is charred now,
into my Air Fryer, and I'm
going to cook this for like,
we'll start with five minutes.
Along with her cauliflower,
Rose also fried a bunch
of tofu and tossed it
with barbecue sauce.
(pan sizzling)
Mix that all together.
(pan scraping)
All right, so here is the dinner.
I added the cauliflower to the pan,
just like she did with the barbecued tofu
and then magically,
just like hers appeared,
we have some edamame and steamed corn.
Dogs are back!
Hi doggies!
Come on, hi!
Hello, hello!
All right so I'm going to eat this.
I'll probably you know,
watch some Veep on Crave or something.
I love Rose's channel.
She really makes veganism
super approachable for people.
Make sure you go check her out.
I'm going to leave a link
to her original video
in the description box below,
so you can go give her some
love, subscribe to her,
give her some thumbs up
and tell her that you were sent by me.
Somebody's gettin' a corn somewhere!
Oh, hot!
