Vegetarian pasta protein ideas: lentils, any beans (butter beans make a great white sauce base), tofu, tempeh, tvp, seitan, bacon bits (these are accidentally vegan, lol), any nuts (soaked cashews are great for a sauce base too), nutritional yeast, etc. Please add more vegetarian protein ideas in the comments!

Great list! You can also get protein directly from your pasta by using a chickpea or lentil variety.

Whole wheat pasta actually has a lot of proteine also egg is obviously a great source, you can also use ricotta and it makes a great sauce!!

I learn so much from this man, I even feel confident cooking for other people now.

Thanks for the video! My husband and I love this combination: pancetta/bacon, garlic, brown button mushrooms, jarred artichokes, lemon zest and juice, finely chopped tuscan kale and parmesan. Add a bit of pasta water if needed. Works well with any small shaped pasta!

Chickpeas would’ve been a nice protein addition to the last pasta! All look amazing though :)

Thank you for the 15 minutes recipe book Mike!

Wow thanks for the book! 15 minutes series is a delight!

Thanks for the free cookbook! I took a quick peak as it downloaded, and saw air fryer options included. Many thanks!

Love love loved this video. Thank you very much. I like being creative and I’m tired of just doing the same thing with my pasta, so this is great. I also like the recipe book. Thank you. 👍

Sir Good job out you. This was hands down this has been the best year to date food Recipes video on youtube this year 2024. He nailed it short and simple.

Thanks for the lil cookbook! 😊

Oh my! It's been a while since I saw another video from your channel. I must say, you really stepped up your work in a professional way, like those little slide-ins. I like it!

3 vegan ideas for pasta 1: cherry tomatos garlic and oregano/ basil (one of my fav's) 2: pesto witch 1:1 ratio ish of basil and spinach with some pine nuts and olive oil 3:mushrooms and white wine and optional cherry tomatos and cilantro (need to cook the mushrooms first with salt and de-glaze with the wine)

Great content levelled up my cooking..watching from South Africa ❤

Thank you for helping me create a cooking methodology in my mind when it comes to pasta and noodles. I think it will get me out of my repetitive box.

Thank you so much for the cookbook and your pasta formula.

TY 4 the cookbook. I'm sure I will get a lot of use out of it. Luv me some pasta!

everything looks so easy and appetizing! Thanks P.H.C!😘

Thank you for the book! Also Thanks for all these pasta tips! 😎

Amazing! Some of my best dishes came from this channel! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the free cookbook dude, much appreciated!

Thank you so much for the cookbook! Will definetly use this on busy days

Thanks for the cookbook!

I love your cooking- I am vegan so I adapt them...try tofu and tempei; you will be surprize how creative you can became eating vegan. And, how well you will feel

This is one of my favorite channels on youtube! I just wanted to tell you to keep it up and great work. Hi from somewhere else in Brooklyn.

Thanks so much for the book!

This is a great video! It shows me that i am overthinking it some of the time. Especially the last recipe, just make your own herb sauce! I could definitely try that

You are an amazing cook. Those are beautiful pasta dishes!

Thank you very much for your cookbook. Greetings from Germany.❤

Great video! Thanks! And, thanks for the book!

Thanks Mike! Some great inspirational ideas, & limitless opportunities! 🙂😋😎❤

So cool! Thanks for making the cookbook free!

Casual flex including a shot of that $2500 single burner induction cooker 🤩

Thanks for the cookbook! 🙃I did a version of this for dinner: spaghetti pasta, grilled chicken, mushrooms, garlic, cream w/parmesan, and grilled asparagus! Absolutely delicious!

Thanks for the great info. Watching from Canada. I always have homemade fettucini noodle, spinach pistachio pesto and shrimp in my freezer for a quick pasta dish.

I love this guy!

Thanks Mike

I have a harvest right freeze drier. When I have left over meat (chicken, pork, turkey) I cube them and F/D. I do this with onions, mushrooms and garlic. When I make sauces for pasta or a stir fry using F/D materials makes the dinner faster BUT also a great flavor punch. I reconstitute the F/D materials with my sauce. All the materials absorb the sauce flavors and become more flavourful!

great vieo! my go to pasta right now is cherry tomatoes onion and zucchini with whatever leafy green i got simmered down with some balsamic,,, something about that combination is so so good

In your recipe book, recipe #4 titled Fennel and Sun dried Tomato pasta has no Fennel or sun dried tomatoes in it, but the recipe ingredients sound delicious

Me, an average Italian girl, watching a pasta video while having pasta for lunch. As an Italian some ingredient combinations you used sounded a bit strange, but I loved the video! Spreading pasta love

Now this is what I have been looking for ! I LOVE PASTA ! ! Yes I down loaded you 15 min. Cook book . I WILL BE USING IT EVERY WEEK ! THANK YOU TAKE CARE and STAY WELL EVERYONE

Great video as always, and helpful too. Thank you!

Hi from India, the video done so so well. Very professional

Hi Mike…. Kate here from France…. thank you so much for the cookbook.. Amazing.. BUT, how many people does each meal serve? Thank you

Vegetarians eat protein too mate 😅

Would love the recipe guide ❤

my absolute favorite paste recipe/formula is sautéed veg with olive oil and garlic, then add the pasta and a bunch of lemon juice and zest, a pinch of chili flakes, then finished with some parmesan. i could eat it every day for the rest of my life. i highly recommend it.

😋😋🧄🍅🥬🍝🍝🍝🍽️ yummm thank you for sharing the inspiration and several delicious quick simple recipes! Bless you kindly sir.🙏🏻

So much work to make noodles 🤩

One of my favorites is taking my pesto which I freeze without the added cheese. I use leftover baked salmon, add cooked shaved carrots, broccoli, red pepper, peas or whatever I have on hand . I put freshly grated cheese on top.

What pepper grinder do you have?? It looks like it works very well!

Si you have the link for the stainless steel pan that you used in the shrimp pasta video? Video 2

A nice add to the “framework “ section of my cookbook. Is there a printable of that?

Homemade hummus with oven roasted carrots and garlic and onions pureed mixed with a jar of tomato sauce. Best with a thick noodle like penne.

I put a little butter, some grated cheese, and dried herbs in a bowl while my tortolini or ravioli is cooking in the microwave. Yes. It cooks perfectly. I add a couple tablespoons of the pasta water in the bowl to make a sauce and then add the pasta and stir. Dinner in 5 to 15 minutes. A can of tuna or chicken optional.

I am all about Wide thick pasta 🎉. I do want to try chick pea pasta for the protein in it automatically

Garden update please!! i need to see those fruit trees !

Great tips as always, thanks for the video! Inspiring for making videos on my channel. 😊

Awesome sweater! Where did you get it?

What stainless steel pot is being used for the pasta 2? It’s not mentioned in the description.

What sort of climate/area of the world do you live in? I’m curious about your gardening!

How do you quickly defrost the shrimp?

I just want the recipe for the pasta you are cooking at timecode 4:30. That looks amazing!

@@kikiransom ok i downloaded the 15 minute meals but he should know that the recipe that is titled for the fennel and sun dried tomato pasta actually shows the ingredients and directions for the pistachio pesto.

Do you have a list of your food formulas? I know you used to have one when you were with your brother for a formula for males in general. I know I haven't been able to watch all of your videos so I'd be curious if you have a list of your formulas and maybe the associated videos attached.

Ye olde Wee Knight pasta. Have to say I gotta try it.

Hey Mike.. there seems to be something amiss with the cookbook. I downloaded it and love the recipes (so thankyou!) but notice that recipe 4 which is the Fennel and Sun Dried Tomato pasta doesn't seem to have any fennel or sun dried tomato in.. seems to be a completely different pasta recipe 🙂 You may need to have a word with your publisher or your proof-reader!

I am a huge fan of yours, but I think you could have been more innovative in naming vegetarian protein sources (there are plenty). It seems weird to differentiate vegetarian pastas from protein pastas.

I like it, but I feel like realistically the first decision for me is normally the veg or maybe protein because those are perishables, then choose the pasta that goes best from there :)

Crazy question but is that a pole-style greenhouse? Do you happen to have a link?

It was a nice video but i find a little disappoiting you didn't explore slightly more options for vegetal protein. Carbs and legumes are verry good together, both in terms of cooking and in terms of nutrition! I love doing a pseudo-bolognese with lentils for example.

Have you found a good gluten free pasta that also is corn free? Speaking of free... thank you for the free 15-minute cookbook!

Let's see what the Italians have to say about this... jk, currently watching and so far I thinkI can really get some inspiration from this

Cute sweater

Mushrooms cook very quickly if you are veggie. Birdy

Japan loves putting corn in everything so that's not that weird. There are plenty of vegetarian protein options you could have added.

Are those recipes in your free book for one or two persons ?

6:07 If you ever want really bad pasta add peas. or corn! Learned that the hard way. Nothings worse than some delicious pasta killed with peas. its like sushi and strawberries, doesn't work.

I'd have loved to see these as part of a full meal. If this is it, we're lacking enough protein and veggies to be healthy enough for many of us - and that defeats the purpose of home cooking

thanks for always thinking of the vegetarians and giving us options :)

Recipes please???

Ich liebe Pasta ❤ lecker 🍝😍🤤

I would definitely add "cream" and "egg-based" to the sauce categorie. You can´t cook a carbonara with pesto or tomato sauce ;)

Do you salt the pasta water every time no matter the dish?

Does pasta effect your weight?

The other big advantage of pastas these days is that they are (or can be) cheap.
