00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:04.871
Tonight, jared and I are meeting you at a local restaurant to go out to dinner together.
00:00:04.871 --> 00:00:08.210
We are so excited to get to meet you for the first time.
00:00:08.210 --> 00:00:13.669
We hug and start talking and I forgot to zip up my purse.
00:00:13.669 --> 00:00:20.748
And so you glance down and you see there's a little container inside my purse and you wonder what in the world is in there.
00:00:20.748 --> 00:00:24.486
You say, anita, what is in your purse?
00:00:24.486 --> 00:00:27.913
And I'm going to tell you all about purse sauce.
00:00:27.913 --> 00:00:35.445
Listen, friend, I cannot wait for you to discover this secret.
00:00:35.466 --> 00:00:39.600
If you've heard about purse sauce before, I promise you're going to learn a few new ideas when it comes to what you can add to your food when you go out to eat.
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:41.462
I know, I know I get it.
00:00:41.462 --> 00:00:44.564
You want to dine out like a regular person, right?
00:00:44.564 --> 00:00:49.548
You get tired of feeling different, like you just can't do things the way other people do.
00:00:49.548 --> 00:00:50.829
Well, you can.
00:00:50.829 --> 00:00:52.609
When you eat plant-based, the pop way.
00:00:52.609 --> 00:01:02.576
We're going to show you how we came up with the idea of adding a purse sauce to your purse or your bag, your backpack, maybe.
00:01:02.576 --> 00:01:06.820
If you're a guy, it's very simple to do.
00:01:06.820 --> 00:01:07.543
You can be nonchalant about it.
00:01:07.543 --> 00:01:08.986
No one even has to know.
00:01:08.986 --> 00:01:12.340
You just know because you were curious about what was in my purse.
00:01:12.340 --> 00:01:16.028
But nobody is ever going to know.
00:01:16.028 --> 00:01:21.987
It's in there and when you put it on your table it's going to be so not obvious at all.
00:01:21.987 --> 00:01:27.340
You'll get sauce right on to your food and it is going to make the biggest difference.
00:01:27.340 --> 00:01:39.402
But the biggest thing is not only is the food going to taste better than it would have with the oil-laden, sugar-laden, salt-filled sauces that would have been on that delicious whole food, plant-based meal you ordered.
00:01:39.402 --> 00:01:52.430
You won't be hurting and sluggish and exhausted afterwards because you ate all of those unhealthy foods that have been holding you back from living your dreams for so long.
00:01:52.430 --> 00:01:57.046
Jared and I can't wait to share more on this episode with you about purse sauces.
00:01:57.046 --> 00:01:59.253
Even the guys are going to love this one.
00:02:00.140 --> 00:02:03.168
Hey sister, welcome to the Power on Plants podcast.
00:02:03.168 --> 00:02:08.492
Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you can just feel better?
00:02:08.492 --> 00:02:13.888
Do you want to avoid spending hours in the kitchen making complicated meals in the name of health?
00:02:13.888 --> 00:02:20.175
Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?
00:02:20.175 --> 00:02:22.282
Hi, we're Jared and Anita Roussel.
00:02:22.322 --> 00:02:27.794
Christ followers, healthcare professionals, parents of four and big fans of great tasting food.
00:02:27.794 --> 00:02:40.003
We, too, tried exercising more, eating natural and clean foods, but we still found ourselves struggling with what we thought were changes that come with age or bad genes, and we weren't finding answers the traditional route.
00:02:40.003 --> 00:02:47.254
So we dug into the research and created our secret nutritional weapon sustainable plant-based living.
00:02:47.254 --> 00:02:51.031
The truth is, you can eat more whole plant foods, and it's not hard.
00:02:51.031 --> 00:02:56.099
You just need the way that's realistic and delicious so you never feel deprived.
00:02:56.099 --> 00:03:04.453
If you're ready to enjoy your meals, no longer be held back by your health struggles and actively live your life, then you're in the right place.
00:03:04.453 --> 00:03:09.729
So grab your favorite plant-based cup of happy pop in those earbuds and let's get started.
00:03:11.171 --> 00:03:13.784
Hey there, friend, welcome to this episode of Power On Plants.
00:03:13.784 --> 00:03:35.913
If you're new here, we are thrilled to have you joining us, and if you are a longtime listener, you know that we love you and we are glad to be back with you to share more about how you can heal naturally with whole food, plant-based meals that actually taste good, that are simple to prepare and make you feel amazing so you can fully live your best years.
00:03:35.913 --> 00:03:47.641
Yet jared and I are passionate about showing you how these foods that we were created to eat actually can work with your regular schedule and you can have meals that you love.
00:03:47.641 --> 00:03:52.602
Never feel deprived, never think about going back because you love the lifestyle.
00:03:52.602 --> 00:03:56.330
Dieting is kicked to the curb, although always are gone.
00:03:56.330 --> 00:04:01.228
There's so many ways I could go right now in this conversation, but we don't have time to cover it all.
00:04:01.228 --> 00:04:14.454
I'm laying this out for you inside our brand new course that will be upcoming shortly, but what I want you to know today is just one thing just doing one simple thing at a time.
00:04:14.454 --> 00:04:29.247
Right now, while you're waiting for us to be able to walk you step by step to plant based joy is going to start changing things for you in massive ways, and purse sauce is one of those things I wish I could tell you exactly.
00:04:29.348 --> 00:04:36.709
When I first came up with this idea, it wasn't something I saw anybody else do, and I actually named it myself purse sauce.
00:04:36.749 --> 00:04:57.447
I've never heard anybody else in the plant based space, or any space for that matter, talk about purse sauce, but this was one of those mind blowing things that just changed everything for us, because when you go whole food plant based, if you don't do it the right way, it's very easy to start feeling like you're very different and you're missing out and it just doesn't have to be that way.
00:04:57.908 --> 00:05:05.807
And one of those times when I noticed that our clients feel that way and where we felt that way when we didn't know how to do it, was dining out.
00:05:06.187 --> 00:05:34.562
You want to be able to go out and have really great food, good ingredients that taste amazing, but we find that a lot of the things that are standing in your way to feeling good are placed into the foods through the sauces and through the dressings, and so you have this really healthy thing like a beautiful salad or a beautiful bowl of some type with all kinds of vegetables and delicious things, and then they put the sauce all over the top and you can't figure out why.
00:05:34.622 --> 00:05:46.449
When you just quote, went and ate a salad and now you don't feel good, your joints ache, you're exhausted and you're tired of feeling this way every time you go out to eat.
00:05:46.449 --> 00:05:59.843
But if you will implement carrying some of these purse sauces with you that I'm talking about today, this can change everything for you when you start dining out, because you're going to love the way it tastes.
00:05:59.843 --> 00:06:05.242
It is quick and simple to prepare and it's going to make your food taste amazing.
00:06:05.242 --> 00:06:08.059
People are going to want to try it at the table, trust me.
00:06:08.059 --> 00:06:09.495
How many times have we had that happen?
00:06:09.771 --> 00:06:10.718
It's been quite a few.
00:06:10.718 --> 00:06:13.392
People see that and they want to try that.
00:06:13.392 --> 00:06:18.112
They take a little sampling, they wow, that's really good, and then they end up using it as well.
00:06:18.112 --> 00:06:22.531
So now we always make a full container, and our containers are around what?
00:06:22.531 --> 00:06:23.392
16 ounces.
00:06:23.392 --> 00:06:26.922
We go ahead and just make it full so that everybody can share in it.
00:06:27.310 --> 00:06:28.370
Isn't that hilarious.
00:06:28.370 --> 00:06:31.535
And we're talking about people who are not whole food plant-based.
00:06:31.535 --> 00:06:32.596
What is that?
00:06:32.596 --> 00:06:33.576
Can I try it?
00:06:33.576 --> 00:06:39.483
They try a little spoonful and next thing you know they're picking up the sauce container pouring it over their meal.
00:06:39.483 --> 00:06:40.485
That is so much fun.
00:06:40.485 --> 00:06:41.105
I just love it.
00:06:41.105 --> 00:06:52.750
It's another way to make people that are with you curious about the way that you're eating and maybe even start to eat a little more whole food plant-based themselves.
00:06:52.750 --> 00:07:05.860
And before long, maybe they're all whole food plant-based and healing and getting better and reversing disease that they were told they would have their entire life, like type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure and high cholesterol and extra pounds and all these things that they've been struggling with their entire life.
00:07:06.350 --> 00:07:10.298
And all of it changed over something as simple as the idea of a purse sauce.
00:07:10.298 --> 00:07:12.723
So what exactly is a purse sauce?
00:07:12.723 --> 00:07:25.110
This is what I call my five minute power on plant dressings and sauces, things that, literally, you throw this into the blender, you throw that into the blender, blend it up, done five minutes or less.
00:07:25.110 --> 00:07:38.656
I'm seriously stretching it when I say five minutes, because most of these sauces I can do in under three easy and most of the time, once you start making them, you'll get to a point where you'll just throw in the amount you like and you'll kind of adjust things out.
00:07:38.656 --> 00:07:43.774
But I've set it to where you can just follow it exactly and get a delicious sauce.
00:07:43.774 --> 00:07:48.432
But it's really easy to tweak these things and you're going to learn how to do that as you go.
00:07:49.014 --> 00:07:52.641
But you take this sauce and you put it into a container.
00:07:52.641 --> 00:07:54.444
That's not obvious.
00:07:54.444 --> 00:08:13.237
I mean, I wouldn't use like a neon container, you know, a hot pink or a bright green container that draws attention right, and one of the things that we don't like to do when we first start this journey is draw attention to the fact that we're doing things differently, because we just want to blend in and enjoy the conversation and not draw attention to ourself.
00:08:13.237 --> 00:08:23.074
We want it to be about the people that we're with so we can listen to them and serve them and make it a fun evening together without it all being focused on us, and it doesn't need to be.
00:08:23.074 --> 00:08:25.725
So just put it in a container that you love.
00:08:26.065 --> 00:08:35.527
I have a beach happy container that you can see on our Instagram page, where I take my favorite drinks to the beach in it, and it's an insulated container so it keeps my sauce cold.
00:08:35.527 --> 00:08:41.601
So think about an insulated, stainless container that you might have that you would put your drinks in your favorite drinks.
00:08:41.601 --> 00:08:43.677
So it's kind of tall.
00:08:43.677 --> 00:08:47.169
I mean, choose a container that's going to fit in whatever bag you're carrying.
00:08:47.169 --> 00:08:55.958
For one Number two, you're just going to choose something that doesn't stand out like a sore thumb, so it's not a bright color, right, and then you don't have to worry about it.
00:08:55.958 --> 00:09:00.136
So you make this sauce that takes literally five minutes or less.
00:09:00.136 --> 00:09:01.841
You pour it into your container.
00:09:01.841 --> 00:09:06.057
I like the ones that keep it cold, so I use the insulated drink containers.
00:09:06.057 --> 00:09:07.620
I pop it in my purse.
00:09:07.620 --> 00:09:10.619
Make sure the lid is on tightly, please.
00:09:10.619 --> 00:09:16.438
You do not want that popping open, because you really don't literally want a purse saucy.
00:09:16.458 --> 00:09:17.883
You don't want it in your purse.
00:09:17.883 --> 00:09:19.370
You don't want a saucy purse?
00:09:19.370 --> 00:09:20.511
No, you don't.
00:09:20.511 --> 00:09:22.913
And it sounds like that's just a simple gammy.
00:09:22.913 --> 00:09:26.461
Hey, it happens, it just it happens sometimes.
00:09:26.461 --> 00:09:28.046
So double check the lid.
00:09:28.046 --> 00:09:32.565
Something else I was thinking too as far as the container size, think about who all's going to be there.
00:09:32.565 --> 00:09:35.942
If it's just two of you, maybe you don't need 16 ounces of sauce.
00:09:35.942 --> 00:09:42.225
Now, when we go out, it's six of us, sometimes with our family, and then sometimes more if we're going with friends or guests.
00:09:42.225 --> 00:09:44.118
So we pack ready.
00:09:45.179 --> 00:09:46.142
Absolutely.
00:09:46.142 --> 00:09:52.941
You've got to be ready because I promise, just like Jared said, the people at the table with you are going to want to try it.
00:09:52.941 --> 00:09:54.684
If they don't, I'd be very surprised.
00:09:54.806 --> 00:10:09.942
I think one of the aspects with having a purse sauce is that it makes it easier when you're ordering, because if you have a salad now, one of our favorite places we go to we've mentioned in one of our other episodes called Fish Out of Water there's a quinoa bowl that has a sauce.
00:10:09.942 --> 00:10:16.062
All we do is just say, hey, either leave off the sauce or I would just like the sauce on the side, that's it.
00:10:16.062 --> 00:10:17.956
You don't have to go through any questions.
00:10:17.956 --> 00:10:19.000
Hey, does it have this?
00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:21.672
Can you omit that when you make the sauce?
00:10:21.672 --> 00:10:23.919
Because many times the sauces and dressings are pre-made.
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:28.054
You just simply say, hey, just leave it on the side, made.
00:10:28.054 --> 00:10:29.418
You just simply say, hey, just leave it on the side.
00:10:29.418 --> 00:10:30.620
And then you've got your own.
00:10:30.620 --> 00:10:35.700
And it makes it very easy, very inconspicuous, like Anita said, nonchalant, and I mean we wouldn't think of any other way of doing it now.
00:10:36.041 --> 00:10:37.125
That's such a great point.
00:10:37.125 --> 00:10:45.142
I love that you brought that up, because it is another way to not draw attention to yourself to just say just leave it off or just put it on the side.
00:10:45.142 --> 00:10:52.870
If you want to try it or you think someone else at your table might enjoy that sauce, you can have it left on the side and then again they don't think anything about it.
00:10:52.870 --> 00:10:58.857
And so once we place our order, I just go ahead and casually remove the bottle of sauce from my purse and set it on the table.
00:10:58.857 --> 00:10:59.921
It's no big deal.
00:10:59.921 --> 00:11:00.863
We've ordered drinks.
00:11:00.863 --> 00:11:01.765
It's sitting there.
00:11:01.765 --> 00:11:05.080
No one has ever asked or questioned anything.
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.589
And then I don't make a big deal about it when I open it and put it on my meal.
00:11:09.589 --> 00:11:11.322
I just open it up and pour it on there.
00:11:11.322 --> 00:11:18.105
Now, if you're a close friend of mine and we're sitting there together and we're dining out, I would lean over and say hey, do you want some of this?
00:11:18.105 --> 00:11:19.177
I brought the sauce with me.
00:11:19.177 --> 00:11:31.778
It has this and that, and if you think it'd go well with your meal, you can try it and use it on your meal too if you'd like.
00:11:31.778 --> 00:11:32.341
If not, I'm not offended.
00:11:32.341 --> 00:11:41.924
So it just gives you options and it's just so much fun to be able to share eating this way with people, because I think what happens in the plant-based space even is that things just are too difficult.
00:11:41.924 --> 00:11:44.456
Why do things have to become difficult?
00:11:44.456 --> 00:11:46.682
Keep things simple for yourself.
00:11:46.682 --> 00:11:56.535
When you learn these step-by-step ways and these secret insider tricks to doing things, all of a sudden it becomes just what you do, and before you go to the restaurant.
00:11:56.576 --> 00:12:10.210
There's one more tip I want to give you, and it's consider the cuisine, because let's say you're going to a down-home kind of southern foods restaurant and you're going to get maybe a baked potato.
00:12:10.210 --> 00:12:16.479
You could use barbecue sauce on it or something else that you could put barbecue on wherever you would go to eat barbecue.
00:12:16.479 --> 00:12:23.283
Maybe you're getting a bowl and you think a barbecue sauce would be good on there, or a nacho cheese sauce, or maybe cashew cream.
00:12:23.283 --> 00:12:34.769
One thing I love to do when we go to eat Mexican and I know that's the type of cuisine we're going for I would use the Power and Plants cashew cream and I would put a squeeze of lime in it and stir in a bit of my favorite salsa.
00:12:34.769 --> 00:12:37.859
Now I've got a salsa, cashew cream that's limey.
00:12:37.859 --> 00:12:50.379
That's going to be delicious on Mexican dishes like veggie fajitas or a taco bowl or anything that I might get at a Mexican restaurant it's delicious bowl or anything that I might get at a Mexican restaurant it's delicious.
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:51.962
If I know it's a restaurant that I might want to get a salad.
00:12:51.962 --> 00:12:52.384
Blue cheese is great.
00:12:52.384 --> 00:12:57.945
Also really, really good on a baked potato or ranch dressing Another favorite for a baked potato or a salad.
00:12:57.945 --> 00:13:00.318
So these are things that you can use on multiple dishes.
00:13:00.318 --> 00:13:02.464
Maybe I want to get a baked potato and a salad.
00:13:02.464 --> 00:13:08.086
I could use that one dressing, either ranch or the pot blue cheese, on both of those things.
00:13:08.086 --> 00:13:22.447
So I want to think ahead a little bit about what I might want to order, but especially the type of cuisine and that's going to help steer which five minute dressing I make to get in that purse sauce bottle and get that into my purse or backpack before I leave to go to the restaurant.
00:13:23.090 --> 00:13:30.988
Now, all of those recipes that I just mentioned you can find in our original cookbook bundle at poweronplantscom forward slash cookbook.
00:13:30.988 --> 00:13:38.229
But then in the Thrive cookbook at that same web address you can find Chick-No-Way sauce.
00:13:38.229 --> 00:13:41.984
Oh my goodness, that one is a game changer.
00:13:41.984 --> 00:13:48.326
Or what about the lemony tahini sauce, one of my favorite dressings for salad of all time.
00:13:48.326 --> 00:13:50.198
I don't even know how to describe it.
00:13:50.198 --> 00:13:51.062
It just tastes so good.
00:13:51.062 --> 00:13:51.946
It's creamy.
00:13:51.946 --> 00:13:53.331
It doesn't have nuts in it.
00:13:53.331 --> 00:13:57.022
If, for some reason, you can't eat nuts, it's made with sesame seeds.
00:13:57.022 --> 00:14:00.289
It is absolutely fantastic.
00:14:00.289 --> 00:14:03.017
Or our yum yum sauce is also in there.
00:14:03.057 --> 00:14:10.586
So say, I was going to a Japanese or Chinese restaurant and I was going to get a bowl of vegetables that had been steamed or sauteed right, and I was going to get a bowl of vegetables that had been steamed or sauteed right.
00:14:10.586 --> 00:14:13.730
Then I would want to get that yum yum sauce in there.
00:14:13.730 --> 00:14:15.537
Or to go on my bowl of rice.
00:14:15.537 --> 00:14:19.605
Oh, my goodness, you're not gonna believe how good this is.
00:14:19.605 --> 00:14:21.336
I cannot wait to share this with you.
00:14:21.836 --> 00:14:27.136

00:15:00.623 --> 00:15:03.417
Listen, we know you don't want to feel different.
00:15:03.417 --> 00:15:07.756
You want to enjoy your meals, but you don't want to ache in your joints like you used to.
00:15:07.756 --> 00:15:23.715
You don't want to be dealing with a high blood pressure and high cholesterol and autoimmune disease and digestive disorders and brain fog and low energy that you had whenever you were eating non-plant-based, and you shouldn't have to deal with those things.
00:15:23.715 --> 00:15:33.884
This is one very simple thing that you can do to make dining out a joy and to introduce others to whole food, plant-based living too, if you so desire.
00:15:34.085 --> 00:15:37.298
And the power on plant sauces make that so much easier.
00:15:37.298 --> 00:15:44.360
Because what we know is that people they don't dislike plant-based, they just don't like nasty tasting food.
00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:50.956
But unfortunately, their experiences have taught them that plant-based can't be tasty, can't be enjoyable.
00:15:51.337 --> 00:15:53.322
And that makes me want to cry.
00:15:53.903 --> 00:15:54.283
It does.
00:15:54.283 --> 00:16:03.756
It's sad, but when you follow these recipes and those sauces are amazing and your friends and your family members try it, they are pleasantly surprised.
00:16:03.756 --> 00:16:06.481
So then you don't have to worry about sharing these with them.
00:16:07.264 --> 00:16:10.629
You are going to fall in love with purse sauces.
00:16:10.629 --> 00:16:15.746
