I'm Chef AJ and I make healthy taste delicious.
Love & Kale,
Chef AJ
No bashing please. Take deep breathe and appreciate (absorb) all this valuable information and post positive comments please! Chef AJ and Kenny, fantastic video!
I was able to break the Butter / Oil habit once I discovered good quality Balsamic Vinegar. Wow... what a game changer!
Faith Rada I bought some because Chef AJ recommends it!
Where can you buy this vintage?
@@lynnlevy5061 I order my Balsamic Vinegar from a place in Chicago... called Old Town Oil & Vinegar. It's a bit 'high end'.. but worth it. I give it as gifts around Christmas... including to 'moi' It's almost like a dessert wine... sweet.
Thank you Kenny for all your hard work behind the camera and fielding questions for Chef AJ while she's busy cooking! You Rock!
She was clearly annoyed with him.
Thank you Kenny
Stop being a pickme, stop making it about men, this is all about Chef AJ.
"If you're not hungry enough to eat your veggies then you not truly hungry." That is UWL gospel!
I do love veggie and I will be eating more of them.
Lol
Having trouble getting my hubby to eat vegetables lately. He is going through a rebellious teenage stage. My sister in law lives with us and she is on board. More veggies for us!
I've eaten SO MANY vegetables the last 2 days since starting to watch your videos, and I've dropped 1.5 lbs! I'm already pretty small, but I had put on 7 lbs during my last trip, eating absolute JUNK the entire time because we were hiking and camping and it was almost impossible to do anything but pack with anything but lightweight processed garbage. I only have 1 more lb left to lose to be back to my pre-trip weight from 2 weeks ago - WOOOOO!!

AJ, it helps so much to see how veggies can be fixed to actually taste good. I am not very skilled, but with your prep hints, I'm improving!
🙌WOOT WOOT🙌 THANK YOU for the shout out, Chef AJ! I'll see you at HealthFest in Marshall, Texas!!!
You're Awesome Jill!
Thank you chef Aj, I’m so inspired by you, I’m in my 50’s and weight loss is a super slow process, When I was in my teens , 20’s and 30 ‘s I could always lose weight at the drop of a hat, but I couldn’t keep it off! In my 40’s took forever to lose weight and now 50’s losing weight for me is nearly impossible, I love veggies cooking in butter or oil, but now without butter, oil or salt, I hate veggies, but with this video I think I can enjoy veggies this way, I became a vegan a couple of months ago, but I would really like to lose some more weight, I really like your positivity and your advice and also at your age it gives me hope that perhaps I too can lose weight and keep it off for life! I subscribed to your channel, thank you, God bless you!!
You absolutely can do it! If you feel you need support you can try my Feel Fabulous group for two weeks for free: feelfabulousoverforty.com
Happy Belated Birthday to Chef AJ!!! We love your work and so glad you took last week off to celebrate.
Chef A J ,I'm new to CZcams.I am not tech savvy. I was watching an old show of yours yesterday ?Your fans were wishing you Happy birthday thinking we were live I added a comment.I guess I'm years behind. I just bought your book The secrets to ultimate Weight Loss .I am maybe a little under weight , but I love vegetables .
Trying to watch all your videos and loving them.Thank you so much ☘️
Thank you
Thank you....the brussel sprouts tasted like a dessert! Only 150 calories of reduced balsamic helped me easily eat an entire 1 lb. bag of sprouts.
Thumbs up for AJ's education....thumbs down for Kenny talking.......Thanks AJ for making eating healthy look easy and taste amazing!
We have changed the time of my weekly broadcast, Weight Loss Wednesday, to 4:00pm Pacific time. You can watch live and ask questions here: facebook.com/chef.aj1/ or watch replays on You Tube here: czcams.com/users/therealchefaj
I bought the Instant Pot after watching a few of your videos and it
is the best money I have ever parted with. I love it...now I'm drooling over the air fryer.
My Dr. had me on anti-depressants for 10years, I successfully got down the dosage but the last 37.5 Mg. I thought I was going mad! It was so hard, i had to stay away from people for 3 weeks!
You are such an inspiration. I am so grateful for you and your energy. I’m transitioning from a low carb for diabetes to No Fat Whole Food Plant Based lifestyle. I love it but need you on a daily basis. Thank you. I’m glad all your previous videos are so available. Your book is fabulous.
Kenny is funny, trying to keep up with Chef AJ, LOL, He's a riot with his comments, cute!
Whew! Love your information but I just cannot keep up! Kenny you rock!
I use my Instant Pot every day! Thanks AJ. Very rarely use my Air Fryer anymore. I like the quantity you can cook in the Instant Pot since there are 3 of us here.
That Johnny Carson appearance was amazing! I'm watching this on youtube but haven't seen it live so I can't comment. Can't wait to get your book so I can see that sauce you used over your veggies. You are endlessly interesting! I'm a size 4 but it's an effort to stay this size and your stuff is fascinating!
I just found AJ on CZcams a couple days ago!! What a power packed woman full of information!! I've tried a kale recipe of hers yesterday..it was delicious!!! Thank you AJ for sharing your knowledge!!
I learned so much in just an hour! Thanks for sharing.
The recipes look great!I I'm inspired to learn even more to support my personal goals.
Thank you!
Your skin has such a healthy glow. Thanks for sharing your lifestyle choices. I am going to try to no salt, no fat, no sugar diet. My only worrybus that I am already thin.
Phyllis Gordon thank you
A local restaurant used to make a carrot top pesto. It was delish but had olive oil and sunflower seeds so fat was high even though vegan.
Great tip Chef AJ on the pineapple with kale! PS Kenny's comments are hilarious!
Scot Girl a
Absolutely It is a mindset. People can eat a whole pint of ice cream and a whole packet of Oreo cookies shooting up to 1200 calories in one sitting, but when people see a giant salad or a giant serving of Brussels, they think they can't eat it because they are programmed.
I find it very distracting and hard to hear when Kenny interrupts you.
Totally agree. He needs to be quiet
I’m enjoying Brussel sprouts with California Balsalmic Sweet Heat right now.
Yum!! Love that combo.
Brilliant and inspiring video, Chef AJ! You have so much energy! I watched your Johnny Carson video, hilarious! My favorite vegetable is a mixed of roasted vegetables, but I love the carrots most. Thanks for the cookbook recommendations. I don’t have an instant pot or air fryer yet, but I’m working on it. 🥕🍠🍓You really brought home the fact that if you’re not hungry to eat vegetables, you are experiencing emotional hunger. So true! Last night I wanted “something crunchy” so I ate dry cereal. Case in point! Thanks for bringing that to my attention!
Hi AJ. High carb Hannah and her husband Derek howlett created an instant pot specific vegan cookbook. I really think you'd love it!
Lettuce Choose Plants Hannah and her husband recycle recipes we've all made as vegans, whereas Chef AJ is a professionally trained plant-based chef who's been at it for YEARS and also works with real doctors and health-based institutions regarding vegan food and living. You really should be checking out Chef AJ's book!
vegan happy I was just mentioning it because she sometimes recommends vegan cookbooks to her followers and I had never heard her mention this one. I didn't mean for it to sound like I thought Chef AJ should be learning from her or anything. I just thought a likeminded person would appreciate her recipes :)
I love all of Hannah's cookbooks! I don't have an instant pot yet though so I haven't really tried any of those recipes yet.
You're missing out if you don't know this couple....they're amazing. positive, empowering, and smart! Hannah lost 70 lbs on the mcDougall diet and still maintaining after a long time. Look up her channel: High Carb Hannah.
You look fabulous Chef AJ. I love your shirt and your makeup is out of this world. Oh yeah and now the veggies. 😁. We should eat the veggies so we look as wonderful as you. Thank you so much for the cooking demos.
Thank you I turn 60 tomorrow!
BLESSINGS TO YOU ON YOUR BIRTHDAY & THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR WISDOM.
Damn you look great for 57!
Happy Birthday, chef AJ! ❤
Love your videos, these recipes are so good. I’ve just started my vegan diet and was stuck with recipes. I am turning 50 next month and I need to lose two stone. Your recipes are hopefully going to help. Thank you 😊
I have a book with over 100 slimming recipes
Hi Chef Aj I am really enjoying your videos
You have struck a cord in me cause I can't stop watching 😁 just wanted to say thank You so much for investing in us with your knowledge and your caring attitude 💖💖
God Bless✨✨
Thank you!
I love your videos, AJ. Thank you for all the great information. I do have to agree with the previous comments, though; the interruptions from Kenny are not only pointless but very distracting. I think the quality of the video would drastically improved if such distractions would be removed.
Thanks for the inspiration on how to prepare vegetables in a tasty and easy way. I receive a tonne of home grown veggies from my parents' garden, and now have much better ideas on how to prepare and consume the volume of food that is crowding my fridge. I ate zucchini (roasted in the oven the night before) before my breakfast oats this morning. That was the very first time I have done that in my life! I am going to try your mushroom & kale saute next. Thanks sooooo much for these informative videos. The energy you exude speaks to how healthy you are from eating this way. There is no more powerful message than practicing what you preach.
I hope your birthday was wonderful! Thank you for doing these broadcasts, I wait for them every week!
So encouraged with your positivity and solid information.... starting today on this new journey. A step at a time. Thank you for your hands on videos....
Fantastic!!
Loving the renewed energy and my sister, who has been ill, saw me go from struggling with health issues to a better quality of life and started on this now. For the both of us it is more about health and the loss of weight is the icing on the cake. (Although we would both love to have your glowing complexion !) THANK YOU !! Down 10 pounds but more importantly, walking with more strength....
Just saw you on Plant Based News Top 100 Influential Vegans so congratulations! I'm super happy I found you, your videos are awesome. I love your personality and your cooking tips. You've convinced me to buy a pressure cooker!
Just wanted to say Thank you Chef AJ and Kenny for giving of your time and energy to make these videos for us! I truly appreciate you both!!!❤️❤️❤️ Plus I learn so much !!!😊😊
Hello chef AJ fibre energy great cooking
Thank you so much for the recipes and food ideas! Everything looked delicious!
Been eating plant based,,no oil,no sugar ,no salt, everything right and I gained weight. No nuts either. What am I doing wrong.. I have eaten enough also I love eating veg and fruit. Bought your book and been following by the book. :-(. I want to lose weight ! I have a good 30 lbs to lose. Not water weight, Fat!
Did you gain weight or did you gain fat? What were you eating before? Do you ever eat out? Do you drink alcohol? Do you eat flour or flour products? Can you show me a 3 day food diary? I have a free two work course here: feelfabulousoverforty.com/register/
CHEF AJ thank you I ate healthy prior to this journey. I do not eat flour, junk , fast food A glass of wine here or there. Never ate rice or kidney beans No fast food. My day consists of rolled oats, fruit, coffee with HALF AND HALF bad. Lunch beans and rice , fruit. Dinner was roasted veggie , zucchini . My evening snack was puffed rice and almond milk. I thought the puffed rice was the problem and I switched to frozen mango with almond milk. I followed the plan except the half and half in coffee in the morning. I feel it’s portion control. More I hear the portion should not be the problem. Thank you for the link. I am truly discouraged and still gaining fat , weight. How would I know. The scale is going up, that’s all I know. I do eat after 8 pm ? Maybe that’s the issue. Wine ?
@@mothermgt Dairy and alcohol are horrible for health and weight loss. Please consider in trying my program for free for 2 weeks: feelfabulousoverforty.com/register/
...are those pea earrings?? very cute :)
This is a good time for me--4:00 pm PST (I'm on Eastern Time). Always fascinating!
You guys are amazing. Thank you so much for your hard work providing these great videos. Love you!
AJ I love watching ur videos! I took ur advice about veggies for breakfast n my weight has been going down steadily since! I'm now in a healthy range for my weight but i still have another 16lbs i still wanna try to lose to stay healthy. I'm losing a consistently of 1-2lbs a week now :) Always look forward to all ur videos every week n all ur helpful advice!!!
Willl do Thank u!! :)
Thank you chef AJ! I loved this episode! It was great to see how the veggies are prepared. Thanks for your hard work, L xx
LOVE all your Information delivered so passionately and with such great detail Chef AJ!
This is my first time tuning in. Who is the guy that keeps interrupting her? Geez.
I love this episode. I learned so much I am trying to add more veggies looks yummy
Can't believe I am eating brussel sprouts for breakfast. Giving it a try today, thanks Chef AJ
Great! Still doing it?
@@CHEFAJ yes I am, I also no longer eat breakfast until I am hungry for it, not based on the clock. Thank you!
I am learning so much from you 💜
Chef AJ I want to be just like you when I grow up!! Thinking about joining UWL but with my daughter getting married and all the money I'm spending my budget is a little tight. I have to give up something because I really need your help!!
I already ate oatmeal for breakfast but this is making me crave veggies
Beautifully explained. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes👌🥗👏
I think you are onto something with eating vegetables for breakfast. I love veggies, but normally don't eat enough of them. I'm trying to go vegan ( I find dairy to be the main issue) and so I came across your videos. I made a tofu scramble with 2 cups of kale, a red pepper, some onion and garlic this morning and it was both satisfying and filling. I have recently discovered smoothie bowls, thanks to other vegan youtubers and while I love them, I don't do well with sweet things in the morning. Thank you for your insight and your videos. I wouldn't have thought about making veggies my main go-to breakfast, but I definitely see the benefits.
I have added both an instant pot and an air fryer to my Xmas/Birthday list. Did you say there is a discount available for mentioning your name? If so can you tell me the code again? Thank you!
I think Kenny is refreshing and a joy. thanks for the ideas Chef.
Save Kenny!
Wow Chef AJ, I have never made food without oil that is amazing, everything looks so fresh and delicious, I am on a mission to weight- loss, I'm considering a plant base diet since I have been on several diets, looks like meat base isn't working for me, Thanks for sharing.
Please consider joining our program.
Love. "Eat popcorn with chopsticks" lmao
Thank you !! Excellent tips/ info
Now I need an air fryer ASAP😬
I always learn something new in your videos
Best wishes
Thanks Chef AJ! I really enjoy all your videos. They are really helpful too!
If you have an overhead exhaust above your oven, turn it on full blast and chop your onions/shallots under that, it will suck the sulphur out and away. If that's not an option, chew gum and/or try breathing with your mouth instead of your nose.
Great idea, thanks!
Hi Chef AJ! I just wanted to THANK YOU
Absolutely! Especially if I can fill in those fat calories with something more delicious and nutritious like homemade hummus (protein AND fiber! More bang for the buck AND the bite)! :D
My grandma suffered her entire life. A hysterectomy after her second child at the age of 23 she would suffer a 50 year battle loosing more and more of her intestine over time. Her willpower diminished by the end of her life, because of a surgery she no longer required the same amount of OxyContin; so the rehab she was recovering in timed her medications and that was the beginning of the fast descend. I saw how her eyes were in a vacant haze, she wasn’t interested in anything my family or I had to say, constantly standing and sitting, never comfortable, could not relax, she was having withdrawals. Instead of living she decided to stop eating and her life came to end 2 months later. Chef Aj reminds me so much of her, she was a take no crap Red Foreman type of lady. I want to live as long as humanly possible. Im going 2 days strong only eating recipes on this channel... Its super easy because I love veggies , except I haven’t eating dinner with my boyfriend or mom yet. They love to go out and get food even more so now because of Covid-19. Im giving it my all! Wish me luck!
If I go to bed hungry I don't fall asleep or I sleep restlessly. I'll dream of food and wake up several times throughout the night, then feel almost sick the next day. I personally would rather have some digestive issues now and then than feel like I might sleep walk to the fridge or eat mindlessly the next time I spot food.
I’ll keep saying thank you chef AJ for all your info 💕💕💕
You are so welcome!
CHEF AJ 💕💕💕
i love content - but Please.... slow down you make me so anxious!
Sorry that's how I am wired
Thank you for this video. So true about the withdrawals off of psychological medications! Truly pailes compared to sugar and caffeine addiction.
Excellent! I learned sooo much. Thank you! Now I need to learn how to use my instapot
Making broth saves money too♡
Yes and better for the environment too!
Thank you Kenny
I'm so tuned in to aj talking I don't really notice the interruption lol😜
Thanks!
Love your cooking tips Chef AJ!
Question Chef AJ.. should we eat 2lbs of veggies per meal or per day?
Brilliant I'm so glad that there are more vegan people around cooking healthy vegan food. Thank you for all this wonderful information. This is exactly what I've been looking for! I have a question, how can I flavour food without onions and garlic or any vegetable of the allium family as I am totally allergic to them, they make me feel ill and I don't like them either.
That's tough if you don't use salt
Great job Kenny ......i bet you can't wait to eat!
OMG! Dr. Artal is my doctor!!! I love him so much :) Unfortunately he's not taking new patients, so I can't get my husband in to see him :(
I like cabbage and leeks cooked together with crispy potatoes on the side.
You two are so hilarious together. I was laughing so hard I was in tears! Love this channel. Thank you for all your help.
Love it, thank you Chef AJ!
Chef aj cannot be phased
Hi! Looking forward to going to True North in Aug
Thank you for this interesting video. I am new to this concept, having lived forever being told that starches were bad for you and promoted weight gain. I love potatoes, I love brown and white rice, I love certain vegetables (I believe I am a mushroom-aholic) and enjoy many different types. I do like to snack, but now I snack on baby carrots, raw zucchini, cukes and the like. Is it an issue to snack on raw veggies?
thank you Chef! i love my instant pot! and the advice and recipes too! thanks for all you do 🌱💜
I just found your channel and beginning my weight loss journey with a plant based diet. I have watched several other channels but I resonate more with yours. I believe we are the same age as well. You were 57 four years ago, and I am currently 61, and my birthday is at the end of March. Question: Are all of these meal ideas in any of your books or in your website? And I looked on the website you mentioned in the video, but it just shows something about GoDaddy and said it was an unsecured site. Thank you.
Hi, thanks for listening! All of my recipes are in my books and many of them are on CZcams. My website is: www.chefaj.com
Happy Birthday Wishes to you dear Chef AJ
I absolutely agree that people don't incorporate enough plants into their diet. But day one of eating massive quantities of vegetables has resulted in a headache and I'm starving. What am I missing???
Sounds like you're missing starch, including rice, potatoes, and beans/legumes
oooh I'm gonna try the pineapple and kale. I don't crave veggies in the morning but I need to try this. BTW I saw your Brussels sprouts recipe on one of your previous webinars and they're THE best. Even my husband loves them. Do you have a favorite way to eat asparagus?
PS: I always watch these on CZcams because unfortunately I'm working all day. So thank you for sharing these!!!
Happy birthday.Welcome to the club🎂
I like the interaction between you and Kenny😁.
Thank you!
Great show and I can't wait to try those Brussel sprouts I already love them and that just sounds delicious
I see you on CZcams
I love this time. this is 11:20 PM mountain time. 3/29/17
AJ you are so good with what you are doing. I can see how you motivate people to eat vegetables. You can also just how to cook tasty meals but you are doing so good to the world by telling them to eat healthy. Recently I became intolerant to vinegars and red chillies ( in fact all chillie powders) including black pepper as I used too much red chillies in my food that affected my stomach lining. Can you please suggest how I can add flavour to the food without vinegar and chillies. Thanks in advance.
Fresh herbs work great!
Very ambitious video!!!
I had to watch the Johnny Carson show after you mentioned it. That was funny! You had the same energy level back then!!
