Been enjoying your videos and great recipes. I just had a question. What do you recommend if you don't tolerate mushrooms very well? Personally, they have a tendency to make me ill about half the time I try to eat them. I notice you like to use them in your recipes quite frequently and wondered what could be used instead that would have a similar flavor? Not sure if I'm allergic to them or something.
Oh rachel, i love watching your recipes.they look so wonderful and delicious.i have tried many already and love them❤ those potatoes they look beautiful
Well produced and articulated video. That food looks amazing and your high vibes are off the chart!
I am not able to get squash so I have a small pumpkin with the shape of squash and I am using it at this very moment. I must say I did not like vital wheat but after seeing you Use it I have made many of your recipe and enjoy them very much. Thank you.
i was lowkey disappointed when she only put salt and pepper on the back of her squash
I would try and make a roux instead of using cornstarch for the gravy. One part coconut oil for the fat, one part flour. But if you don't do gluten that might not work
Seems like a Lot of work but I would totally do it. Looks amazing!
Amazing! You rock.
Looks fucking grim
I love you. Whenever i visite London im coming to see you. Lol i just re read my own post and i sound like a crazy person kmsl
