    We do meatball Monday. Only about once a month. Throw a bag of frozen meatballs in the crockpot on low at 2 pm with a jar of marinara sauce and by 5 dinner is ready.

    My mom always made Taco Casserole and I do it now too, my son and husband love it. Doritos crushed in the bottom of a 9x13 pan topped with taco meat mixed with corn and beans, like black or pinto, topped with cheese. Bake it at 350 for about 20-25 minutes then top with a salad mix of your choice. YUM!

    Variation of your Dorito salad was given to me in 1984. You use a small bottle of Thousand Island dressing instead of the Catalina.

    Kimmy! Hitting the new year strong with a fantastic video and so many good ideas! I loved all the themed nights and the idea of if you like something, try cooking it in another way to make it exciting. My goal in 2024 is to have a low spend month for January and a big part of that is cooking at home! I can't wait to try some of these ideas with my family.

    @julietannOsfan1972 11 месяцев назад +3

    Great ideas & tips.
    I especially admire you for coming up with so many meal ideas.
    I’ve always been a very fussy eater & only like things like fish fingers & shepherds pie etc. I hate anything spicy.
    A popular takeaway in the UK is fish & chips, often with mushy peas.
    Jacket potatoes are a great meal option, especially when you top them with cheese & baked beans.

    I love this video. I cook 5-6 days a week. I love switching things up, making “round two recipes”, and making different flavors of foods (Mexican, Vietnamese, Italian , etc). I also love making make ahead meals whether that be freezer meals cooked from raw or things already cooked and in the freezer like cooked ground meat, breakfast burritos etc. I do love to cook…but I do get that burned out feeling sometimes and this gave me some really good ideas and motivation! Thanks so much

    I have beef and noodles in the crock pot on this snowy day.
    Tomorrow is fried potatoes with polska kielbasa and green beans.
    Soup on Sunday. Maybe chicken tortilla soup.
    Biscuits and gravy is a big go to here.
    So many options just have to look in my frig, freezer and pantry for inspiration.

  • @brg2743
    @brg2743 11 месяцев назад +1

    We had a tiny bit of salsa, hamburger, a new jar of marinara, frozen onion and colored peppers, small tomatoes as perishables in frig so we used them to make spahetti. Threw in some garlic powder, celery seed, basil, in with spahetti and it was so good. Trying to use up perishable food first each supper. We been only used a third of a jar of marinara from Aldi. It was so good. Trying to get into the habit of using ip perishables instead of freezing them to eat later.

  • @michellefitz4287

    Super funny about having beer in the pantry for just stew! We aren’t drinkers either but I would enjoy using beer and/or dry white wine to cook delicious meals.

    Kimmy this video was full of great ideas. My challenge is that I am so used to preparing food for a family of 9. I am now preparing food for just two.
    Until the last 4 months I would be able to use a portion of dinner for my lunch. Now that I am retired there are usually always leftovers. Any ideas as I do not always want to have leftovers especially if I am creating a menu for the week. My goal in January and February is to use what I have in my freezer and pantry and not go to the store.
