You have some great recipes here! Love your 'vending machine' system. We always keep snack baskets low for the kids to grab what they want! I really love that huge orange bowl you have too, it's so awesome!
Growing up in Montréal your snack mix was known as “Nuts and bolts”. Made each Christmas by my aunt, and my mom. Now it’s my cousin who makes it. I still have the recipe but absolutely no self control 😳 so I won’t make it for us ! Never knew it could be frozen. Well maybe if someone puts a lock on the freezer.
The amount of excitement I get when Megan posts a new video is getting slightly embarrassing 😅😅Gonna love this tomorrow, favorite kind of video from favorite RUclipsr!😍😍Goodnight for now sweetie 😴😴, thanks for uploading!❤️❤️
@@MeganFoxUnlocked I understand you are nervous but it really is not necessary sweetie! I can only speak for myself but I think you are a great creator, your editing is also fantastic! Spot on with the music! Your video’s are always of a great variety and very uplifting! They are little pieces of art in my opinion😍And last but not least, you were the one who got me to pick up my bible again… So god bless my dear and thank you!🙏🙏🙏
I love how Josh is always a little grumpy 😂 love your videos Megan, keep up the great work. I see all the great efforts you are putting in- no small feat 💕
For German pancakes, you can use a cast iron skillet and top with fresh berries and confectioner sugar and whipped cream. I dehydrated celery and turn it into powder and love it in chicken salad. Lately I have been making chicken patties and air frying them for 14 minutes, we love it!
I went to Lutheran school as a kid and I was lucky to have a small cafeteria with big long tables and we all just sat with our small classes. The hot food every day was INCREDIBLE - no one wanted to pack their lunch because the lunch ladies did such an awesome job coming up with food kids loved, like jello with fruit or hot chopped ham and cheese sandwiches. We could always bring a quarter up to the cashier and buy a bag of chips if we were still hungry after finishing our tray :)
That’s awesome! We only had “home cooked” hot lunch at our public school once a month and everyone would try to get their parents to let them have hot lunch that day. All the other days it was heated up frozen food.
Watching your show is one of my weeks greatest pleasures! I work from home and I always look forward to seeing what is going on to your family each week! Thank you for sharing your life!!
Your cooking looks so much better than store bought. I mean yes u can buy those items from the store that you are making and they still taste good but u just make it look so much better, yummy.
I love your channel! These 30 minute videos motivate me to get up and tidy-up my house! I watch your videos as I clean up my house or as I do laundry! Thank you for being my inspiration :)
My mom has a homemade chex mix similar to your. She puts it in a roasting pan so it’s easier to stir! I made it recently and prefer small pretzels in mine as well, I ended up using pretzel goldfish. It was perfect!
You should try the Pasta Chips with marinara sauce. Boil your pasta of choice, toss with a bit of olive oil and any seasonings you like, pop in the air fryer (for 10 min at 350), or in the oven until crispy. Dip in marinara....DELISH. My kids love them
I was inspired by your videos to come visit Pennsylvania. Its a beautiful state and where we are staying is a beautiful town. I recommend everyone to come and visit.❤️
Hi Megan, the dry mix snacks looked fantastic...just a tip...us Brits call Worcestershire sauce..Worcester sauce... much easier... Thank you so much xx
I LOVE the snack drawer in the fridge idea! I’ve started doing that. Makes packing lunches for the next day, and coming home after work/daycare so much easier when you have snacks right there all ready for you
This is the recipe we use. It makes a GIANT batch, so you'll probably want to divide the recipe unless you're making them for a crowd or don't mind freezing a bunch. 12 eggs 2 pounds brown sugar 4 cups white sugar 1 tablespoon vanilla 1 tablespoon corn syrup 8 teaspoons soda 1 pound butter 3 pounds peanut butter 18 cups oatmeal 1 pound chocolate chips 1 pound M&M’s® Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.
I made the German pancakes in muffin tins! After the butter melted, I used a paper towel to spread it around in each cup on the sides and there was no mess and no deep cleaning. Just butter residue left over. They were amazing!
I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned it already but here in the uk we call those mini pancake muffin things, Yorkshire Puddings and we eat them traditionally on Sundays with meat and veg with gravy on them 😂❤❤❤
Oooooh I bet your kitchen smells delish. Aww now I want all of those. I'm super hungry now. Those cheese crisps look amazing. I might try to make some later tonight. Sorry but I'm going to have to copy your recipe because it looks divine
@@MeganFoxUnlocked I've watched all of your vids., and haven't gotten bored yet. If you knew what a jaded critic I am IRL, and how many vids I click off of within the first 3 min. because I view them as a waste of my precious time and limited neurons, you'd know that is really quite a compliment. I have never NOT watched a vid of yours until the end. You have never been considered brain draining or a waste of time. Your work is very well done, interesting, fun, educational on many levels, and just a nice way to spend a bit of time.
My favorite school lunch was when we would have left over Turkey and my mom would put it on bread with lettuce, salt, and pepper. Besides that it was always PB&J.
I don't have kids, but the individually wrapped items live in our "vending machine", too! We have homemade cereal marshmallow treats, granola bars, peanut butter crackers, and a popcorn. It's so helpful even for grown-ups, especially if you work from home and have back to back meetings 🙂
We didn’t have hot lunch when I was in grade school, so we had to pack a lunch. But we did go to the church basement to eat, and also sat at long tables. It was a Catholic school. The moms took turns being the “lunchroom ladies”, to make sure no one got too rowdy, etc. On Friday you brought your quarter to school, and you got your 5 milk tokens for the next week. Our milk actually came in glass milk bottles. For 10 cents you could get chocolate milk instead of white milk. Our mom never let us get it. 😢 I also remember our sandwiches being wrapped in wax paper, and if we ran out of paper bags, often mom would put our lunch in a plastic bag from a loaf of bread. She always saved them to reuse. My favorite sandwich was homemade ground bologna, or a fried egg and bologna sandwich. A piece of fruit, and maybe a cookie rounded out lunch. This was in the late 1960’s.
@@MeganFoxUnlocked haha, thanks. I am an aspiring writer, and would love to write a book one day about my 43 year career as a nurse. SO many good stories and memories of that too. For now, I just write them down so I don’t forget them. I’m not getting any younger, you know! 😂
I’d love a link to the Tupperware you use. It looks so easy to get a nice big scoop without getting flour everywhere! I can’t seem to find it. You inspire me to quit my job and just be a mom! Maybe some day.
When making cheese crisps I always do them on my silicone baking liners. We also make Kale chips as a good back to school snack. My mom is a teacher and I’m an instructional assistant, so quick and easy things we can have on hand at work are a must.
@@jodythomas1159 I don’t really have a recipe. I clean and dry the Kale really well. Then I roughly chop it, leaving pretty big pieces since it will shrink. I put it on a baking sheet, season with olive oil and everything but the bagel seasoning and bake until crispy. I usually line my baking sheet with both a silicone liner and a cookie rack. I find that they get crispier if they aren’t directly on the baking sheet.
I always love your cooking videos! I make a party mix very similar to yours too. Usually around Christmas. It’s so addictive!😋 I hope you’ll do lots more cooking videos especially as the holidays sneak up on us!😊 Thanks and God Bless🙏
I love hearing about how you can freeze stuff for later. But how do you thaw it? (without using a microwave, instant pot or crockpot) How is it "something quick"? Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but if I want to use something from the freezer I usually end up with something half-thawed, still containing ice crystals, that's a pain to work with. Could you maybe do a video on using stuff from your freezer?
I enjoy watching your videos. You’re so inspiring. Just FYI you should air dry your hand washed dishes. Wet dishes can be a good place for bacteria to grow and is one of the causes of vomiting diarrhea illnesses. If you haven’t had an issue you are fortunate. Just passing on my nursing knowledge.
I made the German pancake recipe for my grandchildren after you posted the first time. It is such a hit. My 8 grands love them and it’s so high in protein. I don’t make the syrup bc their parents prefer not but I know it’s deliscious. I can tell by looking. My daughter and daughter in love both make them now too. My daughter has 6 children 10 and under so it’s a great meal for large family
My adult kids always tease me about cutting up their grapes 😬. The age I stopped doing this grows as family stories often do. Lately the age has been 10yrs old. They may have added a few years, but it’s a fun, harmless teasing story. 😳🤣
I love your vlogs! It makes my whole week. I’m with Evonnie. I love rye chips! My fav cookie is monster, snickerdoodle, oatmeal, chocolate chip, peanut butter and the kiss ones but with a Wilbur bud instead. Lunchtime I grew up in a country school in our area. They closed down when I was going into 6th grade. But elementary school we sat at our desks to eat. They would bring a silver on wheels cart that had the food in there and we would take our tray and go back to our desks to eat. Josh is getting so much more comfortable around the camera. Also for your wooden cutting boards use mineral oil at cvs or something. Do Not coconut oil. This keeps your boards hydrated and longer lasting. Same with any wooden food tool. You want to keep anything that’s food type like the coconut oil away cause It’s a food item and can make your boards rancid. Saw at Aldi that they had a jalapeño everything but the bagel seasoning. Not sure if in your area. I agree with the cutting of grapes. Unfortunately, I’m sure you saw that Weaver Nut Company just burnt down last night. The retail was spared just needs cleaned up but the back half was horribly burned. Praying for them.
Hey hey. I don't know why i can't share pictures, but i made a Megan's inspiration meal 🙂 pasta salade and cheese crisps. With french cheese. Cheddar's not easy to find un France. The meal was a succes !!!! I'm sometimes out of ideas for our meals. So thank you Megan 🙂 And i went to a Menonite church close to where I leave (Alsace, at the german and Swiz border). They were very friendly and welcoming. I'll go again as soon as I can (working on sundays so.... Let's see). 🙂
@@lonnekefalk2560 I use those mini pickles. I’m making 3 more batches tomorrow. One for my son, 1 for my granddaughter and one for me and my husband. I feel sorry for my daughter. She cans her’s which takes so long before you can eat them. She says her’s are better tasting. I don’ think so!
@@327lwalton yeah me too, the mini’s are so tasty!! So sweet you make them for your whole family❤️❤️. I am gonna try canning them also, maybe your daughter will share her recipe with me?🙏🙏 Greetings from Holland!!
Everything looks yummy, now I am hungry and I definitely want to make or try most all of them. Just yummy looking! Love your cooking shows as well as all you do and this was a special treat! Blessings
Loved the video ... Finishing off with your delicious grilled chicken salad was perfection ....I will make that & the monster cookies, and the beloved snack mix for sure .... You always make me so hungry ... 😋
I think I'll be adding a snack station in my fridge! I just sorted my cheese drawer (yes, we're cheese lovers) so the can easily get string cheese, but portions out grapes and strawberries would be great for my kids too. Glad has great small snack containers that my 5 yr old can easily open and close so they're a nice reusable option too.
Hi Megan, I did not have these fancy lunches in school. My father died when I was 13 so my mum was working all day and my older brother and I had to care for ourselves (warming up leftovers or cooking lunch for us). Not blaming her at all, I'm so thankful for everything 😍 BUT my lunches or more breakfasts usually were slices of bread with Salami, cheese or sausage slices. Fruit and maybe slice of cake/muffin when we had something on Sundays. She prepared them for us, as we are both not the morning persons. If I didn't eat them in school, because the bread was not the freshest or the I just forgot it, I had to eat them at dinner where I added pickles or dipped in Ketchup to make it taste better. We usually had "Vesper" in the evening so bread, pickles, sausage, cheese, raw vegetables to snack etc. When I am having Kids, I hope to provide them a fancy lunchbox :) xoxo from Germany Stephanie
P.S. Yes!!! The Cutey mandarins are passed their prime. 😟 We're trying to use them up too....thinking about making an 'orange julius' or orange cream shakes.
I used to make cookie dough and freeze it years ago when my 8 oldest kids were all home. So convenient! Only have my youngest (9th) at home now though and he's not a cookie eater lol. Those look sooo good (all of it does!)
I have made the cheese crisps and we pull them out of the oven and shape them as taco shells i have a son that cant have corn. We have also used them as a pizza crust. So good. I have an 8 year old and he still loves the squeezies i make my own and i cant keep them in the house. God bless keep up the good work new sub here stay in touch.
Very nice video. Made those cheese crisps a long time ago. Time to try them again! Don't forget to oil your wooden boards and utensils. I used to use mineral oil. Now I just use coconut, avocado, or olive oil, whatever is on hand. Do it every few months. Wipe off excess. I live in a very dry area of WA. state, and lost a very expensive board to cracking because I forgot to oil it in the first 6 mo. of living here.
@@MeganFoxUnlocked We bake all kinds of unconventional things on our Traeger! Cookies, homemade bread, mac & cheese, etc. We have even smoked Goldfish crackers on low, and they taste so smokey and delicious! Just bake things at the normal temperature you would use if using an oven. For your cookies, I just set it at 350 and it took about 12 minutes to bake 😃
Your Worcestershire sauce comment really made me laugh. Excellent effort at pronouncing it. This was such a helpful video. I really want to make more snacks than buy them x
We use pancake batter mix to make Yorkshire puddings, which we serve with gravy and a roast dinner. We hear the oil in the oven and add the batter like you did until they are risen and golden brown
WOW!! I Love All The Delicious Recipes You Have Made Here,.. Would Love To Give Them A Try,.. You Are And Outstanding Mom And Wife... Lord Bless Your Family... 😁💖❤️🌺💞👍😊💕
Cheese crisps, my daughter used to eat them in place of bread for a sandwich in a school lunch. She loved them with sandwich size pepperoni or ham on them. They do keep well also.
You can also make those Monster Cookies adding an 8 ounce package of cream cheese (not instead of anything) when you cream the butter, PB and sugar. The cream cheese keeps them from being dry & works with any cookie.
I love your vending machine system, i like to put welch's fruit gummies in my pantry vending machine, i like getting the big pack of real fruit and super fruit off of Amazon. My kids love! I put a few bags veggie straws, granola bars, cereal bars. I'm my fridge pantry i put pre portioned mixed fruit cups, those applesauce pouches my kids love them too and tiny little juice boxes or go gurts and string cheese i like to put in my kids lunch box. My babies are 1&2 years old so i can relate to your videos very much thank you for sharing your amazing at what you do!
Love the new video, you have the best ideas and everything always looks delicious. I am going yo have to try the Dutch pancakes and " puddles of cheese". You and your family have a blessed week.
You have some great recipes here! Love your 'vending machine' system. We always keep snack baskets low for the kids to grab what they want! I really love that huge orange bowl you have too, it's so awesome!
After Megan said, "I made cookies, too." Evonnie was like...Dang, it's good to be here. I was born into the best house with the best mommy.
I'd feel the same way! :)
Summers we eat only cold foods
Tuna, tomatoes , cucumbers
Chicken salad and veggies
Smoothies
Nuts
Fruits

Good Housekeeping for ALL
For German pancakes, you can use a cast iron skillet and top with fresh berries and confectioner sugar and whipped cream. I dehydrated celery and turn it into powder and love it in chicken salad. Lately I have been making chicken patties and air frying them for 14 minutes, we love it!

Headed into my 17th year of teaching and lots of water with citris fruits in it (pineapple, orange/lime/lemon slices) really helps prevent voice loss!

You are wasteful
I have a monster cookie recipe that everyone loves, but it doesn’t take flour. They are so soft and chewy!
Would you mind sharing the recipe? We are gluten free!
This is the recipe we use. It makes a GIANT batch, so you'll probably want to divide the recipe unless you're making them for a crowd or don't mind freezing a bunch.
12 eggs
2 pounds brown sugar
4 cups white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon corn syrup
8 teaspoons soda
1 pound butter
3 pounds peanut butter
18 cups oatmeal
1 pound chocolate chips
1 pound M&M’s®
Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.
Grew up in South Louisiana, so Friday was red beans and rice day. Was so good. Also loved Dixie cups for ice cream.
Red beans and rice! Mmmmm. I remember that dish!
I made the German pancakes in muffin tins! After the butter melted, I used a paper towel to spread it around in each cup on the sides and there was no mess and no deep cleaning. Just butter residue left over. They were amazing!

You may find that the cheese crisps are still chewy because it is cheddar. Parmesan is a harder cheese that goes harder and crispier
A good thing for the snack mix is a big roast with a lid. I put the lid on and toss it while it's cooking.

Yaaa! Cooking and baking with Megan- my favorite!!!
I think I'll be adding a snack station in my fridge! I just sorted my cheese drawer (yes, we're cheese lovers) so the can easily get string cheese, but portions out grapes and strawberries would be great for my kids too. Glad has great small snack containers that my 5 yr old can easily open and close so they're a nice reusable option too.
Red pepper flakes are very tasty in the cheese crisps. And always grate your cheese...works out very well.
Love a good chatty foodie Meghan video! I always try at least one of your recipes! 😋
I just love your channel
Always inspiring! Thank you for the pancake recipe; looks super simple! Can't wait!
Hi Megan, I did not have these fancy lunches in school. My father died when I was 13 so my mum was working all day and my older brother and I had to care for ourselves (warming up leftovers or cooking lunch for us). Not blaming her at all, I'm so thankful for everything 😍 BUT my lunches or more breakfasts usually were slices of bread with Salami, cheese or sausage slices. Fruit and maybe slice of cake/muffin when we had something on Sundays. She prepared them for us, as we are both not the morning persons. If I didn't eat them in school, because the bread was not the freshest or the I just forgot it, I had to eat them at dinner where I added pickles or dipped in Ketchup to make it taste better. We usually had "Vesper" in the evening so bread, pickles, sausage, cheese, raw vegetables to snack etc. When I am having Kids, I hope to provide them a fancy lunchbox :) xoxo from Germany Stephanie
P.S. Yes!!! The Cutey mandarins are passed their prime. 😟 We're trying to use them up too....thinking about making an 'orange julius' or orange cream shakes.
Love videos with meal/snack ideas!! Thanks for all the great recipes.
I'd put tomato powder (from seasoned dehydrated tomatoes) on them, or dehydrated and powdered green chile or jalapeno.
Loved the recipes - I am adding the ingredients for the snack mix to my grocery order right now. Thank you!
I used to make cookie dough and freeze it years ago when my 8 oldest kids were all home. So convenient! Only have my youngest (9th) at home now though and he's not a cookie eater lol. Those look sooo good (all of it does!)
I have made the cheese crisps and we pull them out of the oven and shape them as taco shells i have a son that cant have corn. We have also used them as a pizza crust. So good. I have an 8 year old and he still loves the squeezies i make my own and i cant keep them in the house. God bless keep up the good work new sub here stay in touch.
Megan, I really enjoy watching your video!!! loved the ideas for Meal prep to !! Have a great day with many blessings ! God bless you & your family .
Have you tried doing the mini breakfast burritos? Yum😊❤️
Very nice video. Made those cheese crisps a long time ago. Time to try them again! Don't forget to oil your wooden boards and utensils. I used to use mineral oil. Now I just use coconut, avocado, or olive oil, whatever is on hand. Do it every few months. Wipe off excess. I live in a very dry area of WA. state, and lost a very expensive board to cracking because I forgot to oil it in the first 6 mo. of living here.
A friend of mine made this for christmas and she gave me the recipe. I remember it cuz it has the "Winchester" bester sauce in it lol
Megan! I made your monster cookies! But I baked them in our Traeger Grill! It added a little smokey flavor (think s'mores). So yummy!
What!!?? Tell me more! We have a smoker too! Now this I wanna try!
@@MeganFoxUnlocked We bake all kinds of unconventional things on our Traeger! Cookies, homemade bread, mac & cheese, etc. We have even smoked Goldfish crackers on low, and they taste so smokey and delicious!
Just bake things at the normal temperature you would use if using an oven. For your cookies, I just set it at 350 and it took about 12 minutes to bake 😃
Edited to add: we essentially treat it as an outdoor oven! In the summer months, it is nice to not heat up the kitchen by using the oven.
Your Worcestershire sauce comment really made me laugh. Excellent effort at pronouncing it. This was such a helpful video. I really want to make more snacks than buy them x
If you make those cheese crisps bigger you can fold them into a hard taco shell for a low carb taco option.
You do eventually learn to trust them 💕 you’ll be amazed at the things you let them do.
I've been waiting for you to upload!!! 🥳❤️
Every Thursday!
We use pancake batter mix to make Yorkshire puddings, which we serve with gravy and a roast dinner. We hear the oil in the oven and add the batter like you did until they are risen and golden brown
Oh my gosh! You talk about Weaver Nut the day it burns down. 😢 I hope they are able to reconstruct and move forward! 💕
WOW!! I Love All The Delicious Recipes You Have Made Here,.. Would Love To Give Them A Try,.. You Are And Outstanding Mom And Wife... Lord Bless Your Family... 😁💖❤️🌺💞👍😊💕
Another Thursday! Your videos get me excited for the weekend :)
Cheese crisps, my daughter used to eat them in place of bread for a sandwich in a school lunch. She loved them with sandwich size pepperoni or ham on them. They do keep well also.
You can also make those Monster Cookies adding an 8 ounce package of cream cheese (not instead of anything) when you cream the butter, PB and sugar. The cream cheese keeps them from being dry & works with any cookie.
Your cooking videos are my favorites! I may try all four of these recipes.
Love the snack bins. Thank you for sharing.
I always love your videos, they’re so inspiring. Thank you!
I love your vending machine system, i like to put welch's fruit gummies in my pantry vending machine, i like getting the big pack of real fruit and super fruit off of Amazon. My kids love! I put a few bags veggie straws, granola bars, cereal bars.
I'm my fridge pantry i put pre portioned mixed fruit cups, those applesauce pouches my kids love them too and tiny little juice boxes or go gurts and string cheese i like to put in my kids lunch box. My babies are 1&2 years old so i can relate to your videos very much thank you for sharing your amazing at what you do!
Your videos are such a treat! Thank you 😊
Love the new video, you have the best ideas and everything always looks delicious. I am going yo have to try the Dutch pancakes and " puddles of cheese". You and your family have a blessed week.
Today is my birthday and I'm gonna pretend this video is like a birthday gift 🤣 because I love your videos.
Happy Birthday!!!!
And also it's SO fun you like Babybel. They are a really common "kid cheese" here in France.
Great video Megan! I enjoyed it so much. Want to try all of the recipes!!
OMG the snack bags I haven't seen before! I gotta grab those!! Love these videos so much!
I’m glad you got to go to Weaver Nut one last time since they just burned down yesterday...so sad
