What's up guys. Today I wanted to address something that's been on my mind recently.
And that's protein obsession. Of course being a vegan I get this question asked to me a lot.
Where do you get your protein? it's a common question a lot of people wonder about.
But one thing I saw a couple weeks ago that really made me think that this thing has gotten out of control is,
I was in Costco buying some quinoa
and I saw a Buddhist nun and the only thing in her shopping cart was
a big tub of Optimum Nutrition whey protein and I thought "This is out of control!"
now back in the day when I started weightlifting,
the only people that were taking protein supplements were the hardcore bodybuilders,
but it seems nowadays everybody and their grandmother thinks that they need some kind of protein supplement.
They think that they are protein deficient and that's absolutely not the case.
Now one of the reasons you don't want to get your protein from whey protein supplements
is that whey protein comes from cows milk
and it's it's highly processed and it's extremely acidic in your body
it's really hard for your kidneys to process.
so today we are gonna put all of your protein fears to rest.
We're going to show you how to make a whole food plant-based chickpea sandwich
not only full of protein but also brimming with vitamins, minerals, fiber,
everything you need to give you the energy to get out there and crush whatever you're doing.
alright we're gonna show you that right now!
ok we're all set. we've got all of our ingredients ready here.
I'll just give you a quick rundown on the ingredients that we're using
it's very simple, very easy to make. just eleven ingredients, we have chickpeas and
red onion. When you're choosing onions make sure you always choose red onions
because the red onions have the most nutrients
more than your white or your other types of onions. Red onion is the way to go.
this is tahini or sesame seed paste, and mustard, Dijon mustard
We have relish. You can also use pickles, that's fine. Pickles or relish
and here we have date syrup. This is date syrup that I just made from dates and water.
now when choosing a sweetener make sure you choose something like date syrup.
Our main goal is always to eat something that is whole foods.
You don't want anything that's processed. You don't want processed sugar.
Date syrup is the way to go and maybe I'll show you guys how to make that in another video if you're interested
you could also use agave or maple syrup.
But again those are processed, stripped of vitamins and minerals
Black pepper. Black pepper and whole wheat bread.
Again, when you are choosing bread make sure that you choose whole wheat or or a whole grain.
The way that you can tell if it's whole grain is just look at the ingredient list.
And make sure the first ingredient is whole grain. If it is whole grain, it is the way to go.
Again, less processed. if you if you choose white bread it's going to be more processed.
stripping down vitamins, stripping off minerals
With wheat bread or whole grain bread you're retaining those nutrients.
in Taiwan, I choose I-Mei whole wheat high fiber bread
But if you're living in the States you also can choose Ezekiel bread
I think Ezekiel bread is is great. Here we have celery and romaine lettuce
Okay, so the first step, you're just going to take your chickpeas and
you're going to put them in a bowl mash them up. let's do it .
okay so it looks like we are properly mashed and the next thing we need is 1/4 cup of diced celery and 1/4 cup of diced onion
all right so let's chop these up right now
by the way this one technique that you guys can use when you're chopping vegetables.
it's called the cat's claw. I learned this several years ago.
when you're chopping you don't want to cut your fingers, so when you chop, hold the vegetable like this.
Meow! like a cat, right? so as you chop, there's no possible way you can cut your fingers.
Look, I can close my eyes and I still cut it perfectly.
Cat's claw, remember it!
Whoa! Holy cow, that onion is strong.
Remember if you ever need to cry crocodile tears, red onions is the way to go.
1/4 cup of diced red onions
Okay so we have our onions and our celery in, now we need 3 tablespoons of tahini, we need 1 teaspoon of mustard,
1/4 cup of relish and 1 tablespoon of the date syrup, so let's throw them in!
I almost forgot to add just a little dash of black pepper.
It will give you a little kick, a little spice to it. Just a little bit is fine
Unless you like to torture yourself, throw a little bit more in there.
All right! We are just about done with the mixture and this is what it should look like.
Look at that beautiful thing.
And the next thing you're going to do is toast our bread.
Toast it!
Okay so we've got our bread toasted and now we're going to heap on the chickpea mixture.
And then we're going to just cut a few more red onions and
some romaine lettuce and some baby tomatoes and throw them on top.
These vegetables really add to the to the flavor and the texture of the sandwich.
And they also will give it some some bright vibrant colors
That can make your sandwich look a lot better. And if you're interested in posting on Instagram or anything like that.
So let's do it! First heap on the chickpea mixture.
As you can see the chickpea mixture was perfect for two sandwiches.
So this recipe makes about two sandwiches. perfect for two.
All right, there you have it! The chickpea high-protein sandwich.
And each sandwich has about 15 grams of protein.
so if you eat one or two of these sandwiches, it is perfect for a post-workout meal
Or for anyone that just wants to get a little protein. High energy.
Whole food, plant-based meal right here. But the real test is coming up.
Because we're going to have Vicky give it a taste and she's going to give us her true opinion.
Let's see what she thinks. so let's eat!
All right! Here's the moment of truth. We are ready to eat.
And Vicky is going to try the high-protein chickpea sandwich and tell us what she thinks. Start eating!

This is like an egg salad. So amazing.

And the onion is not very strong, it is very palatable.
And the color also looks beautiful.
Definitely acceptable!

Ali Mountain oolong tea.
