    So you guys mighta noticed that I renamed this episode "Healthier Versions of Unhealthy Foods" - I wanted to make it clearer that these aren't diet foods or things you should necessarily eat every day, they're lower-calorie, lower-carb, higher-fiber versions of unhealthy foods. They're still very high in fat, so there's a trade-off, but they hopefully give you guys ideas of how to scratch the junk-food-itch when you're trying to eat well!

    My father can’t eat rice anymore (due to health concerns), so I’m going to start using cauliflower for a better substitute. He will surely appreciate having a great not-rice with beef stir-fry. It will also help for stuffed bell peppers. Thank you for showing how to properly cook the cauliflower and for explaining the process so well!

    So after you posted your original “healthy meals” and your “training like Kratos” videos I decided to make a change in my life. I switched my diet around, I started biking everyday morning and afternoon, and started to drink water like I had an addiction. And it worked after a month of excruciating cravings, I succeeded. I went from 211 pounds to 185, the skinniest I have been in years. This is because of you. Your videos helped me push through my cloudy head about changing myself. I’m not done with my dieting I still have a little more to go. But thank you for putting me on the right path of a healthy life.

    Andrew, I'd recommend straining the cooked cauliflower through a cheese cloth rather than letting paper towels passively soak up the moisture. You will be surprised at the waterfall of liquid that will come out and your end crust will be much sturdier.

    Babish, you have truly inspired me to start cooking my meals in the most healthy and knowledgeable way possible. My fiance is having very bad problems with her kidneys and ureters that limit her protein intake. (To much protein makes her sick as her body cannot process it all correctly). Your videos and knowledge of cooking makes me strive to cook in the smartest way I can and to stay away from overly processed foods. Being the person I am I would have never thought I'd take so much joy from cooking a great healthy meal. We enjoy watching you cook and the happiness it brings you. Please keep up changing lives and doing what you do best. Have a happy new year!
