the nacho challenge (vegan) | hot for food
[lauren] then do it.
[john] okay. [lauren] tryna show off.
[lauren] eh heh.
[lauren] okay.
[lauren] are you ready john?
[john] yea.[lauren] jesus.
[lauren] hey guys it's lauren. [john] and john from hot for food
[lauren] today we're gonna do a nacho challenge
[lauren] by request from many people out there on youtube.
[lauren] uh, so far we've done burger challenge, hot dog challenge,
[lauren] pizza challenge and now, nacho challenge.
[lauren] and let it be known that i have won 2 out of 3 challenges.
[lauren] just saying. [john] so?
[lauren] including the last one. do you recall the pizza challenge?
[lauren] the votes were 52 to 14 in favour of my pizza.
[lauren] so you better redeem yourself, diemer.
[john] i've got nothing to say[lauren] okay, then let's begin.
[john] okay. [lauren] i don't actually know where i'm starting today
[john] it's kinda hard to screw up nachos but it's really[lauren] but you will.
[john] ah, thank you. it's gonna come down who comes up with the more creative toppings.
[john] it's all about the toppings.
[lauren] so i am cutting up some kale, kale on nachos?
[john] so i'm doing nachos like family style.
[john] my family used to serve, it's just like ground beef base, obviously i'm gonna do veggie ground round with.
[john] and like a case of cheese sauce smothered over top.
[lauren] this instance, i already picked the wild ingredient not knowing what john was gonna do.
[john] shit, i saw you grab that before we started[lauren] cauliflower.
[john] i was like "what the hell is she gonna do with cauliflower?"
[lauren] there you go, bud.
[lauren] i actually know what you can do with that but i'm not gonna tell you.
[john] okay, so you can really season this however you like,
[john] they sell taco seasoning mixed together all in one package, or you can just pre mix it however you like
[john] so i'm gonna do chipotle chili,
[john] and i'm just kind of eyeballing this cos i'm just doing like a personal sized nacho serving.
[john] little bit of cumin.
[john] paprika.
[john] and garlic powder.
[john] and little bit of freshly squeezed lime.
[lauren] well my plan, is to make a green nachos.
[john] okay. [lauren] so i was thinking i would call it
[lauren] mean green nachos and most of the ingredients on it would be green.
[lauren] such as kale, avocado chunks,
[lauren] cilantro sour cream, and i'm also adding red onion because i need a little bit of like,
[lauren] colour to break it up. [john] they make green onions, you know.
[lauren] i know but i don't want green onion, i want a little bit of purple,
[lauren] like i have a vision.[john] should call it "hulk nachos"
[lauren] that's a good name too, thank you.
[lauren] because i'm the hulk! it's named after me![john] yes that's right.
[lauren] i love cilantro, i'm going for it, i'm going all in.[john] i'm going- i'm not messing with the template.
[john] i'm going basic. [lauren] i think my idea is good.
[john] it's good, i would order it at a restaurant [lauren] yea.
[john] i wouldn't vote for it in this video.
[lauren] well good thing you're not voting.
[john] i'm going to make my cheese sauce and figure out what to do with
[john] that guy.
[lauren] okay.[john] i mean, the easy thing would be cauliflower wings
[john] but like, [lauren] that's not easy at all.
[lauren] there's a way easier way to incorporate that that you'll never think of.
[john] okay. [lauren] i'm gonna make my cilantro sour cream which is a recipe already on our blog,
[lauren] under "the big taco salad"
[lauren] but it starts with raw cashew that you've soaked overnight or for at least three hours.
[lauren] you drain them and rinse them and throw them in a blender.
[lauren] with lime juice,
[lauren] garlic powder, sea salt,
[lauren] apple cider vinegar.
[lauren] cilantro,
[lauren] and almond milk.
[lauren] delicious! nope!
[john] so believe it or not, the base of the queso cheese sauce is carrots and potatoes.
[john] we made a video for this, the link will be at the end of this video.
[john] but i'm sorry i'm getting distracted cos i'm thinking of something while i'm doing this because[lauren] what?
[john] when we did the secret ingredient, does it have to taste like that thing?
[john] or do you just have to hide it [lauren] no! you just use it.
[john] then cauliflower can be a substitute for the potato
[lauren] durh!
[john] cos they're [lauren] i'm handing you this secret ingredient with a bow on top.
[john] did you know?[lauren] as i thought, i was like he can make sauce out of this cauliflower.
[lauren] and then you were saying you were making our nacho cheese, i was like
[lauren] so easy.
[lauren] i'm basically giving you the winning nachos at this point.
[john] cauliflower's gonna take the place of the potato, i'm not gonna split it up and do half and half
[john] cos i feel like it'll be more impressive if i can totally just sub out the potato for cauliflower .
[john] it's all one big experiment here in hot for food kitchen.
[john] whoever's had the secret sabotage ingredient has won the competition.
[lauren] it ain't over till it's over. and since i'm making hulk nachos,
[lauren] hulk doesn't lose. i don't think "hulk nachos" is a good search term,
[lauren] actually to be quite honest with you, i googled "green nachos" and nothing came up.
[lauren] so we're the first.
[john] the first ones to do something on the internet? i don't think that's-
[lauren] yea! i looked up "mean green nachos", "green nachos", nothing.
[john] so we've got a cup of cooked cauliflower and half a cup of cooked carrots.
[john] so blend this with seasonings, and becomes this.
[john] gonna put some kale on my nachos but i'm gonna massage it with lemon juice first.
[lauren] okay, are you ready with all your stuff?
[john] yea, i've got my kale, tomatoes,
[john] veggie ground round, green onions, cheese sauce, i just have to like
[lauren] put it together? [john] compile.
[lauren] yea, i can put mine together to so let's do this!
[john] fine, i can[lauren] fine!
[john] kay. then go then.[lauren] Geez.
[lauren] what are you calling yours? [john] i think they're "nachos supreme"
[lauren] i mean other than kale, it's basically just like regular nachos.
[john] you may have shot yourself in the foot with that cos i think it's got too many weird things.
[john] a lot of people don't like cilantro, that could lose it for you.
[john] a lot of people don't like
[john] allergies, no cashews so they can't have-[lauren] get off it!
[john] this is like, anybody can have this, it's approachable.
[lauren] no, you're gonna get criticised cos you used [john] it's relatable.
[lauren] soy meat. and vegan sour cream from the store.
[john] you gotta search for the perfect chip.
[lauren] it's so good!
[lauren] no, mine are unique and interesting,
[lauren] and flavourful, [john] this tastes like what my family nachos tasted like
[john] what i remember.
[lauren] yours obviously good, but mine's cool.
[john] this is breaking tradition.
[john] this tastes too healthy.
[lauren] no it doesn't! you're crazy! [john] yea it does.
[lauren] it doesn't taste too healthy, it tastes like fun healthy.
[john] i'm having so much fun.
