I know some people are saying it’s repetitive but this was eat as a professional athlete more than only focus on protein. I enjoyed it! Make videos that make you happy 😊
As someone who exercises a lot but still only a tiny fraction as much as Tom Brady, methinks he eats substantially more calories than this in a day. The recipes all look delicious, though. Definitely going to try that method with the broccoli, I like how it keeps the broccoli stem and makes it seem appetizing.
Yesssss the return of my fave series! Also a heads up, Alicia Silverstone has been having a looooot of spotlight for antivax opinions, so if she's in the thumbnail less critical thinking viewers may assume you're aligned similarly. Regardless of who is next, I'm stoked!
Wow, I have to say, I am VERY impressed! ALL 3 of those are right up my alley of easy (uncomplicated), protein perfect, and flavorful! Totally going to try those. Oh, and I too say "sir-up" and not "see-r-up". Thanks Merle! 😄
Great video. Definitely going to check more of his recipes out. Would have loved to see the protein content on the other two recipes (not just the smoothie)
Your pets are sooo cute 🥰. I am also not a salad person and I don’t like radishes either but I’ll try some of the other things for sure. Thanks for your videos! 🤩
The last dish has me asking where is the pasta or bread? He’s a tall man with muscle. There’s no way to eat just broccoli with some sauce and be full for dinner.
He probably does not eat most of the recipes on his website..he probably aims to have his macro needs covered down to the gram and eats often the same things😅
Also, romesco sauce is so good it could actually be a soup :D And the addition of beans was definitely a must - otherwise it just wouldn't be a filling meal at all!
I want that Broccoli dish! I'm going to make it this week. Isa Chandra Moskowitz has an amazing Romesco sauce, so I'm dying to try this one since it is so much easier to make. I can't find it yet.
Thanks Merle for these really hearty meal ideas. I am not vegan/vegetarian since my blood pressure, energy and glucose drop whenever I try it. I'm gathering hearty meal ideas like yours to try out again and see if I can be successful at it eventually.
best of luck with it. My missus found she lacked energy until we added in some seasoned crispy tofu strips into our salads each day, she says she can really feel a difference plus it tastes great (we need it crispy though not floppy!!)😊
These recipes are great but also a little weird in that there's no grains in the 2nd meal and not even protein in the 3rd meal, which is super weird for an athlete? Like?
I love your channel. I’m always tweaking recipes myself, however, when people are trying out other peoples recipes for a show, I really wish they’d try it as the original person does it.
Can I recommend you reviewing Clean Food Dirty Girl recipes? They are subscription based recipes BUT have a ton of free recipes as well. And a really strong community on FB. I’d love to see your thoughts on them.
👋 MERLE, Everything you try look delicious. Oh by the way I was watching the episodes where you try Hailey Bieber smoothie. If your ever in Boca Raton, Florida you should checkout Garden Butcher. They have their owned version of Hailey Bieber smoothie but more affordable. Garden Butcher is a somewhat affordable less bougie version of Erewhon.
I would be most likely to try the broccoli dish. It reminds me of one of my current quick and easy favorites: Broccoli dubu-muchim, which is basically blanched broccoli and tofu with seasoning. It sounds too simple, but it is DELICIOUS.
WOW!!! Thank YOU so much for doing this review and video. Im so happy to see no peanuts or Tofu. All the ingredients used for protein here are nutritionally so much higher quality. Truly one of the best videos yet. Power On Protein Fiend - I'm following you !!! THANK YOU!!!
I’ve made this 2x now omitting the protein powder & using powdered peanut butter instead of almond butter and today I added beans to it, problem I’m having is both times it stopped blending and I had a tough time. I’m using a Vitamix too. I ended up adding more plant milk to help it along. Any suggestions? Yours came out perfectly
I pronounce it the same, sur not sear. I took a poll of friends once and results were all over the place, with the majority of people I have known for years saying it the same.
Ciao Merle, if you like pasta, try spaghetti all'assasina, a recioe from bari in southern italy, my father was originated from this area.. many greetings to you all from brunswick in Germany and please stay safe 🙃
Oh by the way have you ever heard of a social media influencer/content creator name Alexa Luria? She is from Boca Raton, Florida and currently she lived in Los Angeles, California. 🌴 ☀️ She also has a foodie account called Girl With A Gourmet Palate. 🦋 💚😋🤤 🍴
This does not seem like a particularly high protein diet. I mean, broccoli for dinner? I would use that as an appetizer perhaps, but not a meal. But the sauces sound good. (This isn't a knock on. your video, btw, just an observation on what TB apparently thinks is a high protein diet.)
Billie Eilish has a peanut butter chocolate chip cookie recipe, that would be nice to try, just google her name and vegan, and it will pop up. You could pair that with a dinner by Alicia Silverstone and be set. Good video, the salad I will be trying :)
Please continue high protein vegan content loving it

I was thinking the same thing that doesn’t seem like it would be filling
Yeah, from a sports dietetics perspective this is super nutritious but seriously lacking in carbs, and by extension also in calories!
And I would think protein. It would be neat to see the total macros of this day of eating.
Watching this as I heat up Pizza Rolls to get some ideas 💕
Yum!
That salad looks amazing!! Getting the ingredients next grocery trip!
😆
Wow that smoothie has such a beautiful color!
Right!?!
I drink smoothies that look like that at least once a week. Blueberries are so good for you! And tasty!
“Let’s stop yapping and let’s start eating” - cut to Lucille and Gen. 10/10 no notes
i meant to say "lets stop yapping and get to napping:
Yesssss the return of my fave series!

Regardless of who is next, I'm stoked!
I will definitely be trying out that romesco recipe, maybe with some farro or pasta. Thanks for sharing Merle!
YES!
yeah i needed a good way to eat brocolli that wasnt cheese (vegetarian here)
@@sese8976dairy is scary 😢
I would like to see you do a day of what Novak Djokovic eats :)
Yes!
I love veggies but sometimes I have no idea how to make a more delicious meal, so here I am watching. Everything looks delicious.
Wow, I have to say, I am VERY impressed! ALL 3 of those are right up my alley of easy (uncomplicated), protein perfect, and flavorful! Totally going to try those. Oh, and I too say "sir-up" and not "see-r-up". Thanks Merle! 😄
You are so welcome!!
Great video. Definitely going to check more of his recipes out.
Would have loved to see the protein content on the other two recipes (not just the smoothie)
Aww Lucille is a sweetie. My dog loves broccoli! We always give her the stems that we don't want to eat
Your pets are sooo cute 🥰. I am also not a salad person and I don’t like radishes either but I’ll try some of the other things for sure. Thanks for your videos! 🤩
Heck yeah!!!
I would have added nooch to the salad. Also, that dressing is good on radicchio too
Can't wait to try that ceasar salad! Thanks Merle and Tom for the great recipes!
It's so good! Enjoy 😊
Born and raised in Ohio and I've always said it sir-up! Cannot wait to try the smoothie! Always love finding recipes through your videos!
YES thank you!
@@MerleONealWest Coaster here and pronounce it the same as you.
All 3 looked great, especially given how little work was involved. The salad did take my number 1 spot.
What a great video!
Can't wait to try the recipes.
Your pet children are adorable!❤
Thanks for sharing this!!! I'm excited to make alllll of these!

This is your best video! Shows you healthy eating isn't so boring!!
Canadian here (so an authority on the topic) I say sir-up
I feel so validated 😫
Texan and most people here also say sir-up. Maybe it's a middle america thing?
@@Shadeadder Ohioan and I do it too! 🥰
Wisconsin checking in with you guys to say yes!
The weird monosyllabic pronunciation of “mirror” and “syrup” is just an American thing
you are right on the pronunciation of the word syrup.... keep it up
If anyone knows syrup, a New Englander does.
The little eating sounds at the end
Definitely making the Romesco broccoli and the Caesar dressing asap!
DO IT
Also, romesco sauce is so good it could actually be a soup :D And the addition of beans was definitely a must - otherwise it just wouldn't be a filling meal at all!
WOAHHHH my mind is blown
Ohhhhh these look so good!!! God I love a good smoothie
I want that Broccoli dish! I'm going to make it this week. Isa Chandra Moskowitz has an amazing Romesco sauce, so I'm dying to try this one since it is so much easier to make. I can't find it yet.
Which recipe we tryin first, folks
I didn't know that you were from Mass. I would have to say that I am, too, even though I have lived in Vermont longer than any other place.
That was the cutest possible way to end the video!
Right?!
Upstate New Yorker, syrUP for sure!
Lol I say “seer-up” and constantly get teased for it. 😂😂
this is a safe space

Yummm! Some great ideas in here (:
Do Ari next!
Oh, Billie Eilish also has a noodle soup recipe, you can try
I’m going to make the broccoli tonight. Thanks! Great video!
Hope you enjoy!
You should try microwaving the chickpeas before baking/pan frying for optimal crunchiness
Loved this!! Use that extra romesco sauce on zoodles😁
omg YESSS

New research suggests to not put a banana in a smoothie with berries because the banana blocks the flavanols in the berries.
MERLE 100 hour brownies. We NEED these vagnaized!!!! just watched Bigger Bolder Baking make them - sigh not vegan - and MERLE we NEED these!!!!!
My favourite video since the testing of vegan products! Loved this. ❤
Yay! Thank you!
Haven’t gotten past the minute mark because it just occurred to me who you look like...Shannyn Sossamon from A Knights Tale!
what an honor!
One thing to note if using fresh blueberries is that the smoothie will not have a nice color like this :D But it will be very good too!
we love the Lucille (1) content!!
aw thanks More to come!
👋 MERLE,
Everything you try look delicious.

AGREE!!! These are impressive!!
I agree with how you pronounce syrup. I also get made fun of every time I say it around my husband…
you get ittttt
"Okay, last up we got dinner" *Cuts to shot of her cat and dog* 😆
Allen Campbell is TB personal chef and gets all the credit!
I would be most likely to try the broccoli dish. It reminds me of one of my current quick and easy favorites: Broccoli dubu-muchim, which is basically blanched broccoli and tofu with seasoning. It sounds too simple, but it is DELICIOUS.
Missed opportunity for making things even fancier...Caramelized Romanesco Broccoli with Smoky Romesco Sauce. 😆
WOW!!! Thank YOU so much for doing this review and video. Im so happy to see no peanuts or Tofu. All the ingredients used for protein here are nutritionally so much higher quality. Truly one of the best videos yet. Power On Protein Fiend - I'm following you !!! THANK YOU!!!
I as well pronounce syrup that way
Let’s goooo!
All these recipes look so good
Always end with Lucille!!! 😍
The contrast of your ingredient labels is often quite low. An outline or shadow behind would be great
I’ve made this 2x now omitting the protein powder & using powdered peanut butter instead of almond butter and today I added beans to it, problem I’m having is both times it stopped blending and I had a tough time. I’m using a Vitamix too. I ended up adding more plant milk to help it along. Any suggestions? Yours came out perfectly
10:05 last stop we've got dinner
*cuts to pets*
would love to see a lewis hamilton video!!
you should def try the neck exercises that f1 drivers do as part of the vid, too
I pronounce it the same, sur not sear. I took a poll of friends once and results were all over the place, with the majority of people I have known for years saying it the same.
Ciao Merle, if you like pasta, try spaghetti all'assasina, a recioe from bari in southern italy, my father was originated from this area.. many greetings to you all from brunswick in Germany and please stay safe 🙃
"infantile salad greens" 😂
YESSSS I love these videos
Thank you! awesome video
A plopsicle is what you call it when you drop your popsicle 😢
😂
My best girl Merle! 🤗❤️😘
I say syrup the same wayyyy!!!
Yessss!
This looks sooooo good 😍
Hi Merle. Can you please recommend best brand of nutritional yeast. I've had a couple and can't seem to stomach it!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
personally, I love Braggs- but if you don't like it, it might just not be your thing!
I miss you on twitch!
Maybe if Tom Brady had veganized his diet he would still be playing today! Lol
That smoothy looks fantastic.
It’s so good - and beautiful!
Yeah, this looks incredible. Maybe he didn't make a deal with a demon or witches lol. He is a truly beautiful human specimen for sure. Love ya!
do one on Nick Diaz :)
I would definately eat the 2 meals. But the smoothie has too many seeds, maybe reduce to tsp instead of tbsp.
Oh by the way have you ever heard of a social media influencer/content creator name Alexa Luria?
She is from Boca Raton, Florida and currently she lived in Los Angeles, California. 🌴 ☀️
She also has a foodie account called Girl With A Gourmet Palate. 🦋 💚😋🤤 🍴
I always say it sir-up, like you do.
Damn all that good food and I'm just sitting here with my peanut butter sandwich
treat yourself!!! They were all pretty simple!
Isnt Cam Newton also vegan?
Yum,will try them all. 🙏🙏🙏
A+
Agree…😂 I say “SURUP” ✌🏼❤️✌🏼
YES
This does not seem like a particularly high protein diet. I mean, broccoli for dinner? I would use that as an appetizer perhaps, but not a meal. But the sauces sound good. (This isn't a knock on. your video, btw, just an observation on what TB apparently thinks is a high protein diet.)
Can you add Cayenne pepper, or cinnamon powder?
I say syrup like you :)
I say sir up
Thanks
Yummy stuff
I think you say syrup just fine.
However pronouncing FAWNCY yu may need some help with 😜
Go Jets.
I don't know if y'all knew this, but Merle doesn't like sports 😂
❤❤❤
👍💯✌️
Ohhh a video on Ariana grandes diet would be so interesting 🤔
Billie Eilish has a peanut butter chocolate chip cookie recipe, that would be nice to try, just google her name and vegan, and it will pop up. You could pair that with a dinner by Alicia Silverstone and be set. Good video, the salad I will be trying :)
Syrup- y is pronounced as an i (not e) cause like duh- so yea your dead right- imo
Whey isolates are not vegan
