hi Becky, lovin ur videos. must admit I did laugh at 4.11 on the video when u said amis casherole 😂. I've been writing down tips n tricks from ur videos and once my freezer is more empty I'm gonna b doing more freezer meals, esp some of the ones u make. I'm also going to try n start a herb garden. thank u for the videos. ❤️from 🏴 UK.x
Hi Becky. My mum and I both watch and thoroughly enjoy your videos :) quick question about your oven. Do you cook with just standard convection temps? do you ever use fan forced for cooking?
Thank you for the lovely video. It's great to see your confidence when you cook. I am wondering if you would consider moving to bees wax wrappers and reusable plastic bags. Both can be washed in a dish washer. They are a bit of a costly output but you could build your collection over time, and move away from plastic wrap, which is not good for human health and nor is it good for the earth. (you mentioned not liking teflon) . Anyway, thank you again, and just food for thought.
A little tip I learned recently! Line your glass baking dishes with foil. Add your meal and freeze it. Once it's frozen you can remove the frozen meal in one big block and wrap it up and put it back in the freezer. This is so you don't tie up all your casserole dishes in the freezer. When you're ready to cook, unwrap the meal and pop it into your baking dish. Great tip when making several casseroles for the freezer! Always enjoy your videos Becky. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
Dear Becky, may I make a friendly observation and suggestion? I cringe with concern for your safety when you place your left bare hand directly on the point end of your knife and push down! My husband is a retired Executive Chef. He has had to send several cooks to emergency because their hand slipped off of the end of the knife and sliced their palms open! He taught me to place a pot holder or a folded bar towel over the end of the knife to protect my hand. May I humbly encourage you to do the same. I sincerely do not want to see you get hurt. I absolutely love your cooking, gardening, and time with your darling mom, videos!! Thank you for sharing your time with all of us out here. Love and hugs 👩🍳💕🤗🐔🐔
@@AcreHomestead That’s quite a goal!! Filming takes double the time to do something then you need to edit and that can take hours! Thanks for the dedication Becky!!
That food all looked amazing!!! Quick tip, you can add a splash of water to the pan when cooking eggs and it will get under them and help them to release without sticking. Just a tip I was taught that we use all the time :)
A fun little add in for the waffles is little pieces of apple or even apple sauce instead of the eggs for a stronger apple flavor. No applesauce needed on top and they are absolutely delicious. Love from Belgium!
@@damaxpowerway I mean there’s always a portion of grease that’s going to end up being waste from the cooking process. Using the cookie sheet helps collect it, and then use it for whatever else you’d like!
@@damaxpowerwaymy dad uses his cast iron to cook bacon, then he drains the grease into an empty can from soup or whatever. He uses that grease to cook with. You can store it in the fridge. It keeps his cast iron seasoned how he likes it. Also, some people might be trying to cut back or not like as much fat. Nothing wrong with that. We all eat and cook differently.
@@damaxpowerway Just means that the bacon isn't sitting in the grease...but I always save that liquid gold!! Also, my bacon doesn't shrink up like it does when cooked in the grease, so my bacon pieces are larger!
When making eggs for english muffin or bagel sandwiches you can use wide mouth canning rings. Take ring and grease really well. Place rings in a pan and heat with the pan. When pan reaches temp. Crack egg into ring, pop yolk, and cover pan with a lid. Can also do this on a griddle and use a lids to "steam" eggs to done. Also works in oven.
I line with aluminum foil for easier removal and the ability to use older rings. I butter the bottom (let it melt well), season, crack egg, light season top, cover pan. maintain a water level.
I just started making egg cups for my elderly mom. She has a little fridge/freezer and microwave in her room. She can get a few of these out of the freezer and heat them up whenever she’s hungry. I make them with and without hash browns, with turkey sausage, veggies and cheese. She loves them!!!!
My favourite thing to make for breakfasts are egg bites. This is going to sound weird, but I crush up some garlic croutons, shred some cheese and herbs, and mix it all up with eggs. You can add various fine chopped veg, bacon or ham or whatever. Pour into a muffin pan and bake. They are easy and filling, they freeze well, and you can even microwave them. Way cheaper than store bought, too!
Hey Becky if you don’t want to reheat in the microwave (sometimes reheated microwave stuff can be rubbery) try wrapping your burrito or muffin in a small sheet of tinfoil and put in your air fryer for 10 minutes at 350 or 400 depending on how your fryer cooks. The tinfoil isn’t actually necessary but it does help to keep clean up to a minimum 😁
You have such great ideas for meals. We are empty nester now so it's hard to down size our cooking. With you it gives us lots of ideas. We have three freezers so we have lots of room. Your excitement is so great to see. Young ppl these days want it quick and convenient. Thank you for being so good at keeping home and garden traditions alive.
Even young people find it very hard to cook just for 2 people. Most foods are packaged for a family size meal. We used to regularly cook for 2 or 3 days at a time just because a normal package of meat makes sooo much chili or spaghetti. Lots of younger people choose quick foods because they just are stretch thin. Working 60 hours a week plus traveling time to and from work leaves little time for normal household work like cooking and cleaning. I used to leave before 7 am and get home after 7 pm. It doesn't leave much time for the rest of life unfortunately.
Yes the young adults spend a lot of time in McDonald's and other fast food outlets. They can't be bothered with cooking, but with a bit of forethought you can do stuff quite quickly.
@@michellezevenaar I was raised in a home where we always cooked large meals and all of my mom's recipes are for big family meals. It is sometimes hard to downsize those. I'm older now and it's still hard to make some of those. I make my favorites and, yes, eat it for a few days. One thing she did teach me though was to bulk purchase things like meat (we only shopped once a month), take it home and repackage in the size I need before putting it in the freezer. After I moved out on my own I just made the packages smaller. You can do that with almost anything. 😊
@@diannamc367 that's a very good idea indeed! What works well for freezing meats? Plastic bags? Tupperware type boxes? I'm guessing I'll need to label everything clearly of course. How did she plan meals for a month 🤔 that's a daunting idea.
@@michellezevenaar we always repackaged in zip lock bags. They aren't good for long term but great for a couple months or so. I have a food saver now and that will keep it from freezer burn for over 2 years if you ever wanted to take it that far (or lost something in the bottom of the freezer for a while 😅). I can alot of meats now so they're ready to go when I want them. We had a regular rotation of meals with some different things thrown in for extra variety or based on the time of the year and availability of some ingredients. I wouldn't start with an entire month if you're not used to it and buying that much at once will feel like a fortune if you're not used to it. Also, if you can get things in bulk, you can get a little extra each time and have some put up for later. And, I forgot to say, if you do freezer meals like Becky you can cook a larger pack at once and put in in different meals for later. I just found some glass dishes on clearance yesterday so I can try that too!😊
I am absolutely obsessed! Slowly working my way through your recipes! I've tried the no knead bread, the baked Oatmeal, made couple of the freezer meals, the whole family LOVED the chicken fajitas, just made up a batch of the pickled red Onions and today I ordered a chest freezer just so I can start storing all these yummy meals! 😋 🙏 breakfasts are going to be a game changer!
Got my first little mini Azure Standard haul thanks to your recommendation! I’m in an apartment in the city but you can’t tell me that my up and coming balcony garden isn’t a homestead! 😂
Can I just say what a breath of fresh air you are…. With all the craziness going on…your channel lets me forget all about it….if for only a moment. Thank you for all of your hard work putting out great content. ☺️☺️
I make a breakfast casserole by lining the bottom of my pan with hash brown patties, laying a bunch of veggies (usually onions and peppers) and shredded cheese, then pouring (scrambled) eggs on top. My 3 kids are vegetarians now, but in the past I also added cubed ham. I did add browned veggie sausage once, and they liked it, too. :D
Becky, you are so personable and I love how you talk us through everything you are doing! You are a very good teacher! I am 63 and I've learned alot from you young lady!! I love your vlog!!
Hi from Nottingham, UK, at the weekend I make a full english, weekdays it's English Muffins, with a variety of toppings, This weekend (4 days) we have the Jubilee Celebrations xxx
I'm from the UK too, and I love these videos. In case you are interested Becky uses garlic and onion powder in a lot of her recipes and I manages get it, along with some other bulk spices and 25kg oats, from Wilton Wholefoods online. I use the garlic and onion powder in loads of recipes and am so pleased with them
Here's a quick tip from working in a Mexican restaurant for years. Heat a skillet and cook your tortillas in both sides until they puff up and brown a little. Wrap in a clean towel. They taste better and are more flexible to wrap up. Everything looks great! I'm hungry now
I was watching you roll burritos and was yelling CHEESE! Lol love these ideas! I really need to prep some stuff like this because I skip breakfast so much and shouldn't. Thanks for the easy recipes!!!
You've gotten me hooked on baked oatmeal! I made a 9x13 this morning and created four different types in the same pan: dried cherry, banana-walnut, strawberry, and fresh peach. I've been adding flax and chia seeds to it for a little boost of omegas, too. I'll make pancakes and waffles ahead of time and freeze them, hard-boiled eggs, and I'll cook bacon ahead for the week, too. Muffins or a fruit bread (banana, etc), prep fruit, etc. You've inspired me in another video to try a quiche, too. I LOVE your channel!
You are the first person I've heard that doesn't like salt in their eggs like me. Most think I'm nuts but I just don't like with salt. Love your videos and get excited to see one posted. You are an inspiration to watch Becky!
We kept spending SO much on frozen sandwiches as an Easy breakfast for my fiancé but I started making breakfast burritos and freezing those instead, its still an easy meal for him and helps me improve my cooking/bulk cooking skills✨
That's a great project for building your make ahead skills and saving some money! I don't know what you put in yours but when I made a lot of breakfast burritos I kept tator tots around (store brand is fine too). Let them thaw and scramble them up a bit in a skillet, then add in with any other combo...great with eggs and peppers. You can use any frozen potato side or cube up fresh taters and roast them.
Becky I wish you would have asked about the best waffle maker. The Waring Pro is by far the best waffle maker on the market. Makes beautiful waffles. I got my double Waring waffle maker on Facebook market place for $15.00. My daughter always makes waffles and freezes them for the kids. I gave her my grandmothers recipe for waffles and she never tried it until two years ago. She tried it finally and said she would never use any other recipe. It takes 12 eggs. And you whip your egg whites separately and fold them in. Worth the extra little work. I have had many brands of waffle iron over the years and even the American test kitchen says the Waring Pro is the best. Since 6our going to get a different iron I thought I’d give you my experience.
Homemade Waffles 3 cups Flour 4 tsp. Baking Powder 2/3 cup melted butter 2 cups milk 4 eggs separated 1 tsp. Salt Beat egg yolks for 1 minute. Add milk and beat another minute.Add sifted dry ingredients and beat 1 more minute. Add melted butter and beat for 15 seconds. Beat egg whites until stiff. Fold egg whites into batter. Makes approx. 10 waffles. If you prefer a sweeter waffle add 1/2 tsp. Vanilla. I cut the recipe down. Enjoy!
A great tip for tortillas, warming them through on a pan on med/low heat really helps to get a little more flavor and pliability when making a burrito. It really makes a difference! Edit: a bit like toasting your bread, it gives you more flavor that way. Heat on both sides until you see little golden brown spots, and you can feel it's heated through.
@@nantravis1978 hey Ms. Nan, good question! Usually done before filling and rolling, heated flat on a skillet or cast iron pan. Usually takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, depending on your heat. Transfer to a plate and heat the rest of your tortillas through. Then fill and wrap as usual!
I bulk prep breakfast sandwiches for my family and I have found the easiest way to bulk cook eggs for them is to scramble however many you need and pour onto a nonstick cookie sheet. Bake at 376 for 12 minuets or until done :) You can add whatever spices or veggies before you pour on the pan if wanted
So thankful for this video! I’m a young mom of two boys and this is just the inspiration I needed to prep, and work smarter not harder, raising two humans with bottomless pits for stomach’s 😂😂😂
I’m a breakfast smoothie kind of gal so having freeze-dried kale powder and freeze dried bananas in jars and frozen fruit at the ready is vital, especially during the bleakest garden times. :)
In my last years at school, my mum and I would make a huge portion of our favourite smoothie and freeze it in plastic bottles (we always crumpled the bottles a bit so they wouldn’t explode when the water expands while freeing) and I’d grab one as I was leaving the house and had a nice cold smoothie by the time it was lunch time at school. I plan on doing this again once I stop working from home.
My hubby's favorite is low carb breakfast burritos. I use 12 eggs beat with a little water instead of milk. It really makes the eggs fluffy. One lb sausage, 2 heaping tablespoons of fresh salsa and cheese and put in a bowl in the fridge. Then every morning hubby gets a carb balance tortilla and makes a burrito and heats it up in microwave. He don't like them frozen. So this works out great.
Something that’s really good too, and good for using up apples if you have an apple tree? If you chop a few apples really small and add them to your waffle mix and then cook them as usual. Makes for some really juicy, fruity waffles without any toppings needed to be really flavourful! My family now actually prefers them to regular waffles. It tastes best if your apples are sour rather than sweet! Thought you’d like it :)
Becky the best is when you make the burritos wrap them in Aluminum foil then saran wrap. Freeze them and then take them camping. They defrost slowly in your cooler and then You remove the saran wrap and place the foil wrapped burritos on the fire grate and they come out so yummy and sometimes a little charred but the good kind of char.
I love making egg muffins (what I call the). Basically its an omelet all mixed up and put in a muffin pan, sprayed with an oil, and baked. I put them in baggies after cooled and freeze. They heat up in microwave in a minute ready to eat.
I thank God that I found you because you are so down to earth and I’m not intimidated by you I make mistakes and now I know that these you tubers make them, too. You just keep on rolling and compromise Yippee. I’m not home now but when I get there, I’m going to start doing what you do Prepare make- ahead meals to make life easier. I think preparing the stuff in one big day of cooking is the easiest way to go Thanks!
Dear Becky, You are very creative 👌 Thank you for uploading all these videos and improving our culinary skills and every time, you are showing us how not to waste food.You are so bubbley and down to earth.
I feel like I've achieve something for my family today!!! I made 12 breakfast sausage sandwiches for breakfast to freeze. Of course I tried one ... and I'm sure my hubby and grandson will sample the taste before freezing. I feel good to know they can just reach in and grab one whenever they are heading out. Thank you for sharing this video. I even bought ingredients today to make the casserole (maybe wraps - not sure) and baked oatmeal. I think this will be the new norm! Bravo
I bought a silicone Whoopie pie mold off Amazon. It’s wide and shallow and it’s the perfect size for making eggs for breakfast sandwiches it’s easier than making a bunch on the stove (homesteading mom of 6) You shared another great video. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
I think you can never have too many onions. For breakfast, sauté a large onion, chop potatoes already cooked, mushrooms and then crack two eggs over all this and leave them runny. This is for 1 serving and it lasts me until I eat again around two. You are such an inspiration to many.❤
I love watching you so up breakfast ahead. 😂😂 I am riding my indoor cycle while watching and totally paused and held my breath while you double checked baking powder or soda. 😂 glad it was the right one 😊as always thank you for sharing. I love your energy and the way you plan ahead
I love overnight oats. I prep 4 servings in a bowl at a time, then I decide that morning what I want to add for flavor, I.e. peanut butter banana, berries and walnuts, or mango and coconut.
Why did I never think of that? 😂 in the recipes they always tell me to put everything in when I make the oats, so I then ended up not craving that specific flavour the next morning! Why did I not think of leaving the stuff out and adding them fresh? 😂thanks for the tip!
I'm finally gonna ask someone.... I'm legit asking. Why overnight oats? That seems so excessive and unappetizing. What's appealing to you? I want to try but not waste and need more feedback. I think the folks on here are more serious than other places so am open to any useful feedback. Ty in advance!
@@MISNM0 I have hated oatmeal my entire life, too slimy, lol. My mom stopped trying to make me eat them when I was 7. But, I have also wanted to eat a healthier breakfast. I started doing the overnight oats a couple of months ago and I love it. They soak up the milk over night but don't get slimy and I can add what ever I want when I make them (I make them 2 at a time) or add just before I eat it. It also means I have it to grab and go on my way out the door to work.😊
Thank you for all you do. I can see how fast your growing. It’s overwhelming but alway remember know matter how big you get. You are helping a lot of people like me with our mental health. You are saving lives !
I make 36 “Egg McMuffins” at a time for my kids. I bake my meat eggs and cheese in the oven, cool and then cut. It makes it so much easier. The kids love them
@@sunniertimer598 I use a jelly roll pan, half sheet. I layer deli ham, poor over scrambled eggs (usually 30 or so) and then sprinkle freshly shredded cheddar cheese over it. I baked it at 375 for about 20 min or until the egg is set. Once it is cooled, I cut it and freeze between each English muffin. I don’t toast the muffins until they are going to be eaten. I heat the egg stuff in the microwave.
I love making breakfast wraps. (Bacon, scrambled eggs, red peppers or piquante peppers and cheese). Mini spinach quiches (muffin size) Then put those in lunch boxes for myself and my boys. Delicious! Making big batches and freezing it. Other things i make for breakfast and lunch boxes are banana bread "cupcakes", cheeze muffins, mini pizzas, chicken wraps and mini pies. Makes my life so much easier. Pack lunchboxes the night before with frozen goodies and they are perfect the next day. I enjoy watching your videos. Well done. Good luck with your busy time. Here in cape town moving into a wet cold winter.
Hi Becky. I have a tip for eggs for your muffin sandwiches. You can try either of these methods to make it go faster and easier. 1) you can grease up and/or line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and break your eggs directly onto the cookie sheet and bake them. It generally works better if you have enough eggs to fill up the sheet. Bake them at 325-350 until desired doneness. For me it takes about 15 minutes or so. Then you can use a cookie cutter to cut the eggs to size and slip them right onto your sandwiches. OR 2) You can bake them in a muffin tin. Either way they are faster and easier to deal with for me. When I use the cookie sheet method I like to use up the leftover cooked egg white in things like potato or macaroni salad. I'm grateful for all these videos you put out here for us. Blessings to you and yours.
Overnight oats with chia seeds, almond milk and hemp seeds. I usually eat with yoghurt and blueberries. I make enough for a few days at a time and it takes 2 minutes to prep and get into the fridge. Good go to when there is no time to cook or reheat in the mornings
Also I have a small carbon steel frying pan. I use it to fry corn tortillas and eggs. It's beautifully seasoned from frying tortillas and no teflon. I could seriously watch you all day. You're amazing
I'm always kept my onions in the fridge! They seem to keep longer that way for me, but I never though about my eyes not watering. I've usually never had that problem.
Why do we get stuck doing the same thing over and over again just because that’s the way we grew up? I never thought to put my onions in the fridge because my mom always kept them in the pantry. Of course they would last longer! Thanks for the idea! My onions will now be living in the fridge.
Hi! I precook my pork sausage and put it in snack size baggies and freeze it. It makes 3-4 baggies per pound. So nice to add to eggs or make sausage gravy etc. I make pancakes, like, ALL the pancakes. I bake 10 lbs of chicken pieces at a time and make multiple dishes from them during the week. I like to pre-make steel cut oats with fruit in the instant pot, and there's always overnight oats. yummy
My teenage son is obsessed with breakfast burritos before school. I make huge batches and keep them in the freezer. He would always forget to pull one out the night before and like you mentioned, the microwave doesn't even warm them when they are frozen. I started using the auto defrost button on my microwave and it warmed them perfectly! So if you ever forget like him, just defrost if your microwave has that option.
This video came at the perfect time! I’m getting ready to start prepping freezer meals for after I deliver in September. My husband and I were just talking about what we could prep for breakfast last night! Thank you so much for posting such great content 💗
Check out a recipe for lactation cookies. Batch making those is also very useful. Considering the current formula crisis in the US it is a good idea to prepare to breastfeed if you can. Unfortunately not all women can even if they want to so definitely spend some time before delivery reading and preparing to give yourself the best chance for success. And definitely don't stress if it doesn't work, a feed health baby is all that matters.
One of my FAVORITE meal prep hacks is to get some dinner rolls from the store and slice the whole set in half. Since they're stuck to each other, you can get a slab for the top and slab for the bottom, and then you can basically make one big sandwich in a 9x13 pan and cut out the individual sandwiches you want during the week. I have made breakfast sandwiches like this and some chickpea mash sandwiches. Since the rolls are small, I find 2 of the sandwiches makes a good lunch along with some veggies and chips.
Put in a bowl drained & rinsed canned chickpeas (I try to rub off as many of the skins as I can but it's tedious), mayonnaise, mustard, salt, & pepper. Mash together in a bowl. Add other spices and ingredients as desired. This is a "clean out the fridge" recipe for me - if I have a random unused carrot or half a cucumber, it gets diced very fine and mixed in. I've also put in minced onion, minced pickled jalapeños, etc. Treat it like a chicken salad sandwich if you like. Ratios of all the ingredients are to desired taste and texture. I like things to be about egg salad consistency.
For Belgian waffles, I add a little spoonful of dry yeast, really helps them «fill out»! Also I add a little plastic foil on the counter, which catches spill, if I overfill it a little… THANKS for great videos from Norway 🇳🇴🇺🇸🤗
Becky, can you try the tip where you put a wet paper towel out when you cut onions to see if it helps you not cry? The tip is you’re supposed to put a wet paper towel on the cutting board and the chemicals from the onions are drawn to the water in that, rather than your eyes. I’ve seen this claim before, but I always wondered if it really worked. If it works for you I would TOTALLY trust it!! Thanks for these recipes - can’t wait to try them - the baked oatmeal is a huge favorite in our house now!!!
i just love your channel! you have such a warm maternal type of vibe and it’s so refreshing!! i’ve binge watched ur whole channel these past few days and now i’m early lol :)) stay blessed
I just wanna say thank you for everything that you do, we just bought our first quarter cow in bulk because of your videos, hopefully we’ll start doing more meats, but figured we’ll start small. I’ve also started doing freezer meals and my boyfriend and I loooveeee the convenience and have started eating out less! Love the videos and recipes!!
I'm always so excited when I see you've posted another video! And I love the look on your face every time you taste something and like it! Your energy and enthusiasm are contagious!
We love making our own egg muffins but we put the eggs in a muffin pan and bake in the oven. They come out and fit the muffins PERFECTLY! Mrs Bowtie says she likes they way you think. We are so happy we recently found your channel!
Regarding waffle makers - I saw on a food show one time where they took leftover Thanksgiving stuffing and put it in the waffle maker to make 4 crispy squares of stuffing, then put on plates and topped each with mashed potatoes and gravy, and turkey pieces, and maybe a dollop of cranberry relish. Another idea is to put shredded hash browns in the maker for crispy potato squares.
Yum! I saw someone put those Pillsbury dough cinnamon rolls in a waffle maker. Now I might need to buy a waffle maker to try your ideas too. Thanks for sharing!
I made these breakfast sandwiches for my Grandson. He can eat them when he is home for breakfast or lunch when his Mom and Dad are at work. Summer break from school.
I have the Cuisinart Double Belgian Waffle Maker and it’s AMAZING. It’s not small. You mentioned you got the one you did because it’s small. The Double makes two at once, you can customize how light or dark they get and the waffles are nice and thick with deep waffle print. Making two at once when trying to feed a crowd really comes in handy. I have never gotten uneven cooking and it comes with a scoop so you get just the right amount in each waffle. Highly recommend!
Thank you for these receipts. You are amazing. I am 76 and I enjoy you so much. It is like you come to my house and cook. I find my-self thinking about you and giggling as you feel like a grand daughter and I wish you were. I also love your mother. Thank you
I use my cast iron skillet to prepare eggs. Whether fried or scrambled, they turn out great. Make sure your pan is warm, not hot, and let your eggs set before you try to turn them. Comes out every time.
You will enjoy that waffle maker for quickie breakfasts. You can use them to cook scrambled eggs as well, and you can use it for cake and brownie snacks...pour it thin for brownie brittle. Try sweet potato in your next waffle batter and serve it with dinner.
@@nadiacruel99I'm a lot like Becky and I'm experimental and I don't follow recipes. Let's see...I would start with a bit thinner/quicker moving batter. Maybe with a typical brownie batter as a baseline...go less flour and add some coconut milk or even a little coke or root beer. If you added soda pop or la croix...the bubbles would reduce the need for any sort of leavening (baking soda or powder). I would experiment with a sheet pan in the oven before you adapt it for waffle iron. Pour it thin in the pan. Bake it lower temp and longer time so it comes out dry and crunchy. You could also try that recipe in a crepe pan. I don't know how picky you are to try new things and expect certain results. If you have a house full of teenagers you can get away with more creative pursuits 😜. Chocolate charcoal? Yes please! Hahahah
I am so thankful that you and Josh share your life with us! You are so fun to watch! I love watching how you and your mom work together! ❤️ 💕 💖 💓 💗 💛 ❤️ 💕 💖
I’m up checking on water and ice for our first tropical storm of the season. In Florida Mostly a rain event. So I’m checking out your breakfast meals and boy I’m hungry. I’ll do that another time. Your like the little bunny! I’ve been getting emails so thank you Becky. Your close to 300,000. Wow so congratulations. I know these Meals are fresh and hummy🥓🍳🧅🌯☕
I really love seeing your face throughout the whole video, like in your older videos, just hanging out with Becky and hearing you say "hello friends " is my favorite!!!
I know other channels have there thing with but I think You make the channel not fancy shots( i dont really like fancy shots, simple hanging out with you is nice!). Also I'm just one opinion :) love all you share with us!!!
Co-incidence… I recently bought a waffle maker for making breakfasts in advance and freezing them. Unfortunately for me the delivery got messed up and a week later the delivery agents have an investigation underway. That’s another week to wait, then a replacement delivery. Patience is a virtue apparently, one I seemingly lack! You can cook eggs on your waffle maker by the way, they appear to cook up really nicely
Hi Becky, I was really glad you remembered the cheese for the burritos. I was like BECKY THE CHEESE. YOU NEED THE CHEESE IN THERE TOO!! 😂. Great recipes.
You're so natural in the kitchen, down to Earth and organized, also I've seen many recipe videos but haven't seen cheese being shredded so effortlessly like that! What food processor is that, it seems so quiet, is it? I also appreciate that you are trying to use quality ingredients and that you're considerate of occasional background noise, so glad to have found your channel!
You are such an inspiration Becky! We have a small kitchen and the only freezer space we have is the compartment above the fridge, but I made space so I could try some of your recipes and have some meals to last us through the heatwave that was coming here to the PNW (we have no air conditioning). I made the breakfast sandwiches, breakfast burritos, Amish casserole and I also made your tortellini salad and Cowboy caviar (from one of your other meal prep videos) the same day. Having meals prepped before that heatwave was just such a blessing. Our favorites are the tortellini salad and the breakfast burritos, but we like all of them and I will definitely make them all again. Thank you for being so real. You feel like family - you’re awesome. ❤️
Becky I called in sick and I've stayed home to binge watch your videos...thank you for being such a light every day but especially on days when I'm not my best 😊 sending love from the Pacific Islands.
Pre-made breakfasts? We love your oatmeal casserole. I also like to have homemade frozen waffles or pancakes that I can just pop in the toaster. I also like making a bunch of breakfast burritos in the freezer
When I made freezer breakfast sandwiches I beat and seasoned a bunch of eggs and cooked them on a baking pan/ cookie sheet that had raised edges and baked them, then I cut the pan into squares for the amount of sandwiches I wanted to make.
Hi Becky, tip with the tortillas: lighty warm the tortillas before you roll them. They will be softer and easier to roll into a burrito, it will also prevent the tortillas from ripping when rolling up. I use a pan and just warm them a few seconds on each side (approx 10-15 sec.) on each side and boom done!

Hi Becky. My mum and I both watch and thoroughly enjoy your videos :) quick question about your oven. Do you cook with just standard convection temps? do you ever use fan forced for cooking?
You can wear sunglasses while cutting onions. That way you’ll protect yourself from crying :-)
Thank you for the lovely video. It's great to see your confidence when you cook. I am wondering if you would consider moving to bees wax wrappers and reusable plastic bags. Both can be washed in a dish washer. They are a bit of a costly output but you could build your collection over time, and move away from plastic wrap, which is not good for human health and nor is it good for the earth. (you mentioned not liking teflon) . Anyway, thank you again, and just food for thought.
A little tip I learned recently! Line your glass baking dishes with foil. Add your meal and freeze it. Once it's frozen you can remove the frozen meal in one big block and wrap it up and put it back in the freezer. This is so you don't tie up all your casserole dishes in the freezer. When you're ready to cook, unwrap the meal and pop it into your baking dish. Great tip when making several casseroles for the freezer! Always enjoy your videos Becky. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
This is an amazing tip, thank you!!!
Thank you! I was considering freezer molds to do this, but they are very expensive. ❤❤❤
Love this tip
I bet that saves space as well!
That's very clever!
Dear Becky, may I make a friendly observation and suggestion? I cringe with concern for your safety when you place your left bare hand directly on the point end of your knife and push down! My husband is a retired Executive Chef. He has had to send several cooks to emergency because their hand slipped off of the end of the knife and sliced their palms open! He taught me to place a pot holder or a folded bar towel over the end of the knife to protect my hand. May I humbly encourage you to do the same. I sincerely do not want to see you get hurt.
I absolutely love your cooking, gardening, and time with your darling mom, videos!!
Thank you for sharing your time with all of us out here.
Love and hugs 👩🍳💕🤗🐔🐔
Love how often you upload. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
You are so welcome! Every other day is my goal :)
@@AcreHomestead That’s quite a goal!! Filming takes double the time to do something then you need to edit and that can take hours! Thanks for the dedication Becky!!
I second this! I look forward to these videos so much!
I LOVE it, as well. Please continue.

That food all looked amazing!!! Quick tip, you can add a splash of water to the pan when cooking eggs and it will get under them and help them to release without sticking. Just a tip I was taught that we use all the time :)
Oh wow that’s a great idea! Thanks!
You can also use your well seasoned cast iron
Water or just switch to cooking with butter when pan frying. Gives that nice light crisp without sticking
@@samanthacahill5399 I’ll have to try that.
So handy, Luke.
A fun little add in for the waffles is little pieces of apple or even apple sauce instead of the eggs for a stronger apple flavor. No applesauce needed on top and they are absolutely delicious.
Love from Belgium!
Axana you might like America apple butter then. It's very easy to make yourself in a slowcooker.
That sounds absolutely delicious! Is that kind of like a jam or is it more so used like regular apple sauce ?
@@axanahooghe93 I use it like jam. It's rather thick and strong flavor. Even just that on toast is delicious.
Must give this a try sounds good,thank you 😍
what do belgians know about waffles🤣😉
what to do when you can't sleep?? watch old videos of Becky all night long ❤❤❤ love your videos!!!
one of the only youtubers where im willing to not skip the ad so you can get that kick back
Hot tip! Add a cooling rack on the cookie sheet when you cook the bacon. It helps drain the grease from the bacon and the bacon still tastes great!
WHY WOULD YOU DRAIN THE GREASE
@@damaxpowerway I mean there’s always a portion of grease that’s going to end up being waste from the cooking process. Using the cookie sheet helps collect it, and then use it for whatever else you’d like!
Brilliant!
@@damaxpowerwaymy dad uses his cast iron to cook bacon, then he drains the grease into an empty can from soup or whatever. He uses that grease to cook with. You can store it in the fridge. It keeps his cast iron seasoned how he likes it. Also, some people might be trying to cut back or not like as much fat. Nothing wrong with that. We all eat and cook differently.
@@damaxpowerway Just means that the bacon isn't sitting in the grease...but I always save that liquid gold!! Also, my bacon doesn't shrink up like it does when cooked in the grease, so my bacon pieces are larger!
When making eggs for english muffin or bagel sandwiches you can use wide mouth canning rings. Take ring and grease really well. Place rings in a pan and heat with the pan. When pan reaches temp. Crack egg into ring, pop yolk, and cover pan with a lid. Can also do this on a griddle and use a lids to "steam" eggs to done. Also works in oven.
Great idea!
I line with aluminum foil for easier removal and the ability to use older rings. I butter the bottom (let it melt well), season, crack egg, light season top, cover pan. maintain a water level.
This is genius!
Great idea! I use my muffin pan and bake them.
I use an egg ring and break the yolks then use a chopstick to stir the top so it cooks faster.
I just started making egg cups for my elderly mom. She has a little fridge/freezer and microwave in her room. She can get a few of these out of the freezer and heat them up whenever she’s hungry. I make them with and without hash browns, with turkey sausage, veggies and cheese. She loves them!!!!
My favourite thing to make for breakfasts are egg bites. This is going to sound weird, but I crush up some garlic croutons, shred some cheese and herbs, and mix it all up with eggs. You can add various fine chopped veg, bacon or ham or whatever.
Pour into a muffin pan and bake. They are easy and filling, they freeze well, and you can even microwave them. Way cheaper than store bought, too!
Do you make your own croutons?
Hey Becky if you don’t want to reheat in the microwave (sometimes reheated microwave stuff can be rubbery) try wrapping your burrito or muffin in a small sheet of tinfoil and put in your air fryer for 10 minutes at 350 or 400 depending on how your fryer cooks. The tinfoil isn’t actually necessary but it does help to keep clean up to a minimum 😁
You have such great ideas for meals. We are empty nester now so it's hard to down size our cooking. With you it gives us lots of ideas. We have three freezers so we have lots of room. Your excitement is so great to see. Young ppl these days want it quick and convenient. Thank you for being so good at keeping home and garden traditions alive.
Even young people find it very hard to cook just for 2 people. Most foods are packaged for a family size meal. We used to regularly cook for 2 or 3 days at a time just because a normal package of meat makes sooo much chili or spaghetti.
Lots of younger people choose quick foods because they just are stretch thin. Working 60 hours a week plus traveling time to and from work leaves little time for normal household work like cooking and cleaning. I used to leave before 7 am and get home after 7 pm. It doesn't leave much time for the rest of life unfortunately.
Yes the young adults spend a lot of time in McDonald's and other fast food outlets.
They can't be bothered with cooking, but with a bit of forethought you can do stuff quite quickly.
@@michellezevenaar I was raised in a home where we always cooked large meals and all of my mom's recipes are for big family meals. It is sometimes hard to downsize those.
I'm older now and it's still hard to make some of those. I make my favorites and, yes, eat it for a few days.
One thing she did teach me though was to bulk purchase things like meat (we only shopped once a month), take it home and repackage in the size I need before putting it in the freezer. After I moved out on my own I just made the packages smaller. You can do that with almost anything. 😊
@@diannamc367 that's a very good idea indeed! What works well for freezing meats? Plastic bags? Tupperware type boxes? I'm guessing I'll need to label everything clearly of course.
How did she plan meals for a month 🤔 that's a daunting idea.
@@michellezevenaar we always repackaged in zip lock bags. They aren't good for long term but great for a couple months or so. I have a food saver now and that will keep it from freezer burn for over 2 years if you ever wanted to take it that far (or lost something in the bottom of the freezer for a while 😅). I can alot of meats now so they're ready to go when I want them.
We had a regular rotation of meals with some different things thrown in for extra variety or based on the time of the year and availability of some ingredients.
I wouldn't start with an entire month if you're not used to it and buying that much at once will feel like a fortune if you're not used to it.
Also, if you can get things in bulk, you can get a little extra each time and have some put up for later.
And, I forgot to say, if you do freezer meals like Becky you can cook a larger pack at once and put in in different meals for later. I just found some glass dishes on clearance yesterday so I can try that too!😊
I am absolutely obsessed! Slowly working my way through your recipes! I've tried the no knead bread, the baked Oatmeal, made couple of the freezer meals, the whole family LOVED the chicken fajitas, just made up a batch of the pickled red Onions and today I ordered a chest freezer just so I can start storing all these yummy meals! 😋 🙏 breakfasts are going to be a game changer!
Got my first little mini Azure Standard haul thanks to your recommendation! I’m in an apartment in the city but you can’t tell me that my up and coming balcony garden isn’t a homestead! 😂
Way to go.
Can I just say what a breath of fresh air you are…. With all the craziness going on…your channel lets me forget all about it….if for only a moment. Thank you for all of your hard work putting out great content. ☺️☺️
I make a breakfast casserole by lining the bottom of my pan with hash brown patties, laying a bunch of veggies (usually onions and peppers) and shredded cheese, then pouring (scrambled) eggs on top. My 3 kids are vegetarians now, but in the past I also added cubed ham. I did add browned veggie sausage once, and they liked it, too. :D
Becky, you are so personable and I love how you talk us through everything you are doing! You are a very good teacher! I am 63 and I've learned alot from you young lady!! I love your vlog!!
Hi from Nottingham, UK, at the weekend I make a full english, weekdays it's English Muffins, with a variety of toppings, This weekend (4 days) we have the Jubilee Celebrations xxx
I'm from the UK too, and I love these videos. In case you are interested Becky uses garlic and onion powder in a lot of her recipes and I manages get it, along with some other bulk spices and 25kg oats, from Wilton Wholefoods online. I use the garlic and onion powder in loads of recipes and am so pleased with them
Here's a quick tip from working in a Mexican restaurant for years. Heat a skillet and cook your tortillas in both sides until they puff up and brown a little. Wrap in a clean towel. They taste better and are more flexible to wrap up. Everything looks great! I'm hungry now
I was watching you roll burritos and was yelling CHEESE! Lol love these ideas! I really need to prep some stuff like this because I skip breakfast so much and shouldn't. Thanks for the easy recipes!!!
Oh I so wish I could have heard you!! lol
Same!! 😂
I was yelling cheese ! Everything looked yummy 😋
Me too😆
Me to I’m sitting here yelling ‘cheese Becky cheese!!!!!!’ Lol
You've gotten me hooked on baked oatmeal! I made a 9x13 this morning and created four different types in the same pan: dried cherry, banana-walnut, strawberry, and fresh peach. I've been adding flax and chia seeds to it for a little boost of omegas, too. I'll make pancakes and waffles ahead of time and freeze them, hard-boiled eggs, and I'll cook bacon ahead for the week, too. Muffins or a fruit bread (banana, etc), prep fruit, etc. You've inspired me in another video to try a quiche, too. I LOVE your channel!
The dried cherry one sounds amazing 👏
Omgsh the baked oatmeal is amazing! I don’t even add the brown sugar. Super easy breakfast. My kids love it 😍
Great idea to make 4 flavors in the same pan
I love those homemade potholders, I’ve been making them since I was a kid and I’m nearly 70. They last a long time and they’re so easy to use.
I love them too!
I am crocheting potholders with the thermal stitch as I watch this. 😅😄
how do you make yours?
@@Elizabeth-sz5hl what's a thermal stich?
@@carolyndymond4065 its a kind of stitch in crochet. Its hard to explain. You can learn it on RUclips.
I didn't see the pot holders. When do you see them
I just want you to know that your little mistakes along the way makes your channel even more awesome. Thanks for sharing all that you do! ❤️
You are the first person I've heard that doesn't like salt in their eggs like me. Most think I'm nuts but I just don't like with salt. Love your videos and get excited to see one posted. You are an inspiration to watch Becky!
I don't like salty eggs either. It's just a weird flavor combo to me.
Salt changes the texture of eggs, I don't like it either. But other seasonings yes!
Strangely, eggs are one of the few things I have to salt. Funny😊
@@sbayles me too. I’m usually very light on salt except for eggs. I double salt those
I don't like salt on my eggs either, except for when they are hard boiled, weird, I know😊
We kept spending SO much on frozen sandwiches as an Easy breakfast for my fiancé but I started making breakfast burritos and freezing those instead, its still an easy meal for him and helps me improve my cooking/bulk cooking skills✨
I figured it at less than a dollar a burrito, or mcmuffin , was worth it.
That's a great project for building your make ahead skills and saving some money! I don't know what you put in yours but when I made a lot of breakfast burritos I kept tator tots around (store brand is fine too). Let them thaw and scramble them up a bit in a skillet, then add in with any other combo...great with eggs and peppers. You can use any frozen potato side or cube up fresh taters and roast them.
I agree! I have a 14 yr old boy that is a bottomless pit. I can make these super filling and whatever size I want.
@@lethiapage4767I've started using powdered potatoes, it saves me space and $.
Becky I wish you would have asked about the best waffle maker. The Waring Pro is by far the best waffle maker on the market. Makes beautiful waffles. I got my double Waring waffle maker on Facebook market place for $15.00. My daughter always makes waffles and freezes them for the kids. I gave her my grandmothers recipe for waffles and she never tried it until two years ago. She tried it finally and said she would never use any other recipe. It takes 12 eggs. And you whip your egg whites separately and fold them in. Worth the extra little work. I have had many brands of waffle iron over the years and even the American test kitchen says the Waring Pro is the best. Since 6our going to get a different iron I thought I’d give you my experience.
Well now you have to share the entire recipe! It sounds great!
Homemade Waffles
3 cups Flour
4 tsp. Baking Powder
2/3 cup melted butter
2 cups milk
4 eggs separated
1 tsp. Salt
Beat egg yolks for 1 minute. Add milk and beat another minute.Add sifted dry ingredients and beat 1 more minute.
Add melted butter and beat for 15 seconds. Beat egg whites until stiff. Fold egg whites into batter.
Makes approx. 10 waffles.
If you prefer a sweeter waffle add 1/2 tsp. Vanilla.
I cut the recipe down. Enjoy!
Thank you for the recipe. Sounds wonderful.
A great tip for tortillas, warming them through on a pan on med/low heat really helps to get a little more flavor and pliability when making a burrito. It really makes a difference!
Edit: a bit like toasting your bread, it gives you more flavor that way. Heat on both sides until you see little golden brown spots, and you can feel it's heated through.
May be a dumb question Elena -- but do you do this before rolling them up with the ingredients? Typo -- Eleni
@@nantravis1978 hey Ms. Nan, good question! Usually done before filling and rolling, heated flat on a skillet or cast iron pan. Usually takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, depending on your heat. Transfer to a plate and heat the rest of your tortillas through. Then fill and wrap as usual!
If you have a gas stove, you can pop those bad boys right on the burner directly and *chef kiss*
I also heat mine in microwave in a damp paper towel. Same amount of time but you can do several at a time.
@@bettywhittington9654 I imagine they'd be soggy and it wouldn't lend them the additional flavor toasting does.
I bulk prep breakfast sandwiches for my family and I have found the easiest way to bulk cook eggs for them is to scramble however many you need and pour onto a nonstick cookie sheet. Bake at 376 for 12 minuets or until done :)
You can add whatever spices or veggies before you pour on the pan if wanted
I saw that on "rowes rising" channel, I love the idea!!! I definitely need to try that
377 works better
So thankful for this video! I’m a young mom of two boys and this is just the inspiration I needed to prep, and work smarter not harder, raising two humans with bottomless pits for stomach’s 😂😂😂
I’m a breakfast smoothie kind of gal so having freeze-dried kale powder and freeze dried bananas in jars and frozen fruit at the ready is vital, especially during the bleakest garden times. :)
That sounds so yummy!
In my last years at school, my mum and I would make a huge portion of our favourite smoothie and freeze it in plastic bottles (we always crumpled the bottles a bit so they wouldn’t explode when the water expands while freeing) and I’d grab one as I was leaving the house and had a nice cold smoothie by the time it was lunch time at school. I plan on doing this again once I stop working from home.
@@maike__- what a great idea!!
My hubby's favorite is low carb breakfast burritos. I use 12 eggs beat with a little water instead of milk. It really makes the eggs fluffy. One lb sausage, 2 heaping tablespoons of fresh salsa and cheese and put in a bowl in the fridge. Then every morning hubby gets a carb balance tortilla and makes a burrito and heats it up in microwave. He don't like them frozen. So this works out great.
Something that’s really good too, and good for using up apples if you have an apple tree? If you chop a few apples really small and add them to your waffle mix and then cook them as usual. Makes for some really juicy, fruity waffles without any toppings needed to be really flavourful! My family now actually prefers them to regular waffles. It tastes best if your apples are sour rather than sweet! Thought you’d like it :)
Becky the best is when you make the burritos wrap them in Aluminum foil then saran wrap. Freeze them and then take them camping. They defrost slowly in your cooler and then You remove the saran wrap and place the foil wrapped burritos on the fire grate and they come out so yummy and sometimes a little charred but the good kind of char.
I love making egg muffins (what I call the). Basically its an omelet all mixed up and put in a muffin pan, sprayed with an oil, and baked. I put them in baggies after cooled and freeze. They heat up in microwave in a minute ready to eat.
Love that!
I usually make them for my husband before I go on work trips. Perfect to use up those veggie scraps and random meats.
Try putting a small bowl of water close to where you are cutting your onions. The gases well be attracted to the water instead of your eyes.
I thank God that I found you because you are so down to earth and I’m not intimidated by you I make mistakes and now I know that these you tubers make them, too. You just keep on rolling and compromise Yippee. I’m not home now but when I get there, I’m going to start doing what you do Prepare make- ahead meals to make life easier. I think preparing the stuff in one big day of cooking is the easiest way to go Thanks!
Dear Becky, You are very creative 👌 Thank you for uploading all these videos and improving our culinary skills and every time, you are showing us how not to waste food.You are so bubbley and down to earth.
I feel like I've achieve something for my family today!!! I made 12 breakfast sausage sandwiches for breakfast to freeze. Of course I tried one ... and I'm sure my hubby and grandson will sample the taste before freezing. I feel good to know they can just reach in and grab one whenever they are heading out. Thank you for sharing this video. I even bought ingredients today to make the casserole (maybe wraps - not sure) and baked oatmeal. I think this will be the new norm! Bravo
I bought a silicone Whoopie pie mold off Amazon. It’s wide and shallow and it’s the perfect size for making eggs for breakfast sandwiches it’s easier than making a bunch on the stove (homesteading mom of 6) You shared another great video. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Smart!!
Ooh I’m thinking those muffin top pans might work too!
Great idea
Great idea! I just found them on Amazon and put it in my cart! Not a bad price for a 3 mold package. Thanks!!
How long and what tempt to bake the eggs? I am intrigued.
I think you can never have too many onions. For breakfast, sauté a large onion, chop potatoes already cooked, mushrooms and then crack two eggs over all this and leave them runny. This is for 1 serving and it lasts me until I eat again around two. You are such an inspiration to many.❤
Easy way to make muffin eggs is to crack them in a cupcake tin and bake them perfect fit to go on a round bread.
I love watching you so up breakfast ahead.
😂😂 I am riding my indoor cycle while watching and totally paused and held my breath while you double checked baking powder or soda. 😂 glad it was the right one
😊as always thank you for sharing. I love your energy and the way you plan ahead
I love overnight oats. I prep 4 servings in a bowl at a time, then I decide that morning what I want to add for flavor, I.e. peanut butter banana, berries and walnuts, or mango and coconut.
I need to try that!
Love these too, esp in warmer weather.
Why did I never think of that? 😂 in the recipes they always tell me to put everything in when I make the oats, so I then ended up not craving that specific flavour the next morning! Why did I not think of leaving the stuff out and adding them fresh? 😂thanks for the tip!
I'm finally gonna ask someone.... I'm legit asking.
Why overnight oats? That seems so excessive and unappetizing. What's appealing to you? I want to try but not waste and need more feedback. I think the folks on here are more serious than other places so am open to any useful feedback.
Ty in advance!
@@MISNM0 I have hated oatmeal my entire life, too slimy, lol. My mom stopped trying to make me eat them when I was 7.
But, I have also wanted to eat a healthier breakfast.
I started doing the overnight oats a couple of months ago and I love it. They soak up the milk over night but don't get slimy and I can add what ever I want when I make them (I make them 2 at a time) or add just before I eat it.
It also means I have it to grab and go on my way out the door to work.😊

I make 36 “Egg McMuffins” at a time for my kids. I bake my meat eggs and cheese in the oven, cool and then cut. It makes it so much easier. The kids love them
Do you bake them on a tray and what kind of meat do you use. What temp do you cook at and how long?
@@sunniertimer598 I use a jelly roll pan, half sheet. I layer deli ham, poor over scrambled eggs (usually 30 or so) and then sprinkle freshly shredded cheddar cheese over it. I baked it at 375 for about 20 min or until the egg is set. Once it is cooled, I cut it and freeze between each English muffin. I don’t toast the muffins until they are going to be eaten. I heat the egg stuff in the microwave.

I love making breakfast wraps. (Bacon, scrambled eggs, red peppers or piquante peppers and cheese). Mini spinach quiches (muffin size) Then put those in lunch boxes for myself and my boys. Delicious! Making big batches and freezing it. Other things i make for breakfast and lunch boxes are banana bread "cupcakes", cheeze muffins, mini pizzas, chicken wraps and mini pies. Makes my life so much easier. Pack lunchboxes the night before with frozen goodies and they are perfect the next day.
I enjoy watching your videos. Well done. Good luck with your busy time. Here in cape town moving into a wet cold winter.
Love that!
Another great go to is homemade granola bars.
The mini quiches sound adorable 🙈 I’ll have to try that
Hi Becky. I have a tip for eggs for your muffin sandwiches. You can try either of these methods to make it go faster and easier. 1) you can grease up and/or line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and break your eggs directly onto the cookie sheet and bake them. It generally works better if you have enough eggs to fill up the sheet. Bake them at 325-350 until desired doneness. For me it takes about 15 minutes or so. Then you can use a cookie cutter to cut the eggs to size and slip them right onto your sandwiches. OR 2) You can bake them in a muffin tin. Either way they are faster and easier to deal with for me. When I use the cookie sheet method I like to use up the leftover cooked egg white in things like potato or macaroni salad. I'm grateful for all these videos you put out here for us. Blessings to you and yours.
Overnight oats with chia seeds, almond milk and hemp seeds. I usually eat with yoghurt and blueberries. I make enough for a few days at a time and it takes 2 minutes to prep and get into the fridge. Good go to when there is no time to cook or reheat in the mornings
Also I have a small carbon steel frying pan. I use it to fry corn tortillas and eggs. It's beautifully seasoned from frying tortillas and no teflon. I could seriously watch you all day. You're amazing
You don’t know how much I needed this Becky. My husband and I have switched work schedules and I need some quick breakfast ideas.
Sweet B. You don't have to apologize for any in between noise, that is what the warm comfort of home is all about. home
I keep my onions in my refrigerator. I don't have to worry about onion eyes while chopping them now. Been doing that for years. Love all your video's.
I'm always kept my onions in the fridge! They seem to keep longer that way for me, but I never though about my eyes not watering. I've usually never had that problem.
@@heatherdavis7397 they do keep longer in the refrigerator I think too. I've not had watery eyes since I started keeping them in the refrigerator.
Why do we get stuck doing the same thing over and over again just because that’s the way we grew up? I never thought to put my onions in the fridge because my mom always kept them in the pantry. Of course they would last longer! Thanks for the idea! My onions will now be living in the fridge.
@@brea5731 they don't burn your eyes either. Or haven't mine since I've been keeping them in there. I've been doing it for about 25 years or longer.
It’s a joy to be in the kitchen with you, Becky. I love watching your freezer meal videos!
Hi! I precook my pork sausage and put it in snack size baggies and freeze it. It makes 3-4 baggies per pound. So nice to add to eggs or make sausage gravy etc. I make pancakes, like, ALL the pancakes. I bake 10 lbs of chicken pieces at a time and make multiple dishes from them during the week. I like to pre-make steel cut oats with fruit in the instant pot, and there's always overnight oats. yummy
That's a great idea!
Ummm, can we be best friends?
My teenage son is obsessed with breakfast burritos before school. I make huge batches and keep them in the freezer. He would always forget to pull one out the night before and like you mentioned, the microwave doesn't even warm them when they are frozen. I started using the auto defrost button on my microwave and it warmed them perfectly! So if you ever forget like him, just defrost if your microwave has that option.
This video came at the perfect time! I’m getting ready to start prepping freezer meals for after I deliver in September. My husband and I were just talking about what we could prep for breakfast last night! Thank you so much for posting such great content 💗
Aw congratulations! I hope it helps!
Check out a recipe for lactation cookies. Batch making those is also very useful. Considering the current formula crisis in the US it is a good idea to prepare to breastfeed if you can. Unfortunately not all women can even if they want to so definitely spend some time before delivery reading and preparing to give yourself the best chance for success. And definitely don't stress if it doesn't work, a feed health baby is all that matters.
One of my FAVORITE meal prep hacks is to get some dinner rolls from the store and slice the whole set in half. Since they're stuck to each other, you can get a slab for the top and slab for the bottom, and then you can basically make one big sandwich in a 9x13 pan and cut out the individual sandwiches you want during the week. I have made breakfast sandwiches like this and some chickpea mash sandwiches. Since the rolls are small, I find 2 of the sandwiches makes a good lunch along with some veggies and chips.
How do you make the chickpea mash?
Put in a bowl drained & rinsed canned chickpeas (I try to rub off as many of the skins as I can but it's tedious), mayonnaise, mustard, salt, & pepper. Mash together in a bowl. Add other spices and ingredients as desired. This is a "clean out the fridge" recipe for me - if I have a random unused carrot or half a cucumber, it gets diced very fine and mixed in. I've also put in minced onion, minced pickled jalapeños, etc. Treat it like a chicken salad sandwich if you like. Ratios of all the ingredients are to desired taste and texture. I like things to be about egg salad consistency.
For Belgian waffles, I add a little spoonful of dry yeast, really helps them «fill out»! Also I add a little plastic foil on the counter, which catches spill, if I overfill it a little… THANKS for great videos from Norway 🇳🇴🇺🇸🤗
Love the yeast tip!
Becky, can you try the tip where you put a wet paper towel out when you cut onions to see if it helps you not cry? The tip is you’re supposed to put a wet paper towel on the cutting board and the chemicals from the onions are drawn to the water in that, rather than your eyes. I’ve seen this claim before, but I always wondered if it really worked. If it works for you I would TOTALLY trust it!! Thanks for these recipes - can’t wait to try them - the baked oatmeal is a huge favorite in our house now!!!
Or…you could just try it yourself…
With waffles if you seperate the eggs and whip the egg white and fold in last, you get a really crisp waffle
These all look so good!! Thank you! How many of us were yelling, Cheese Becky! Cheese!! Lol. 😊
i just love your channel! you have such a warm maternal type of vibe and it’s so refreshing!! i’ve binge watched ur whole channel these past few days and now i’m early lol :)) stay blessed
I just wanna say thank you for everything that you do, we just bought our first quarter cow in bulk because of your videos, hopefully we’ll start doing more meats, but figured we’ll start small. I’ve also started doing freezer meals and my boyfriend and I loooveeee the convenience and have started eating out less! Love the videos and recipes!!
Congratulations! That is amazing and I love to hear that! I'm so glad you are here!
I'm always so excited when I see you've posted another video! And I love the look on your face every time you taste something and like it! Your energy and enthusiasm are contagious!
Can’t wait to try some of these! I think for the English muffins, I would try cooking the eggs in a muffin tin in the oven to have a nice round shape!
I was yelling at the screen, that you forgot the cheese. I'm glad you finally heard me! Thanks for all your good energies.
Fry eggs in your seasoned cast iron skillets and the won't stick. Heat up the cast iron a liitle, then add oil and then the egg. No sticking.
We love making our own egg muffins but we put the eggs in a muffin pan and bake in the oven. They come out and fit the muffins PERFECTLY!
Mrs Bowtie says she likes they way you think. We are so happy we recently found your channel!
Regarding waffle makers - I saw on a food show one time where they took leftover Thanksgiving stuffing and put it in the waffle maker to make 4 crispy squares of stuffing, then put on plates and topped each with mashed potatoes and gravy, and turkey pieces, and maybe a dollop of cranberry relish. Another idea is to put shredded hash browns in the maker for crispy potato squares.
Yum! I saw someone put those Pillsbury dough cinnamon rolls in a waffle maker. Now I might need to buy a waffle maker to try your ideas too. Thanks for sharing!
@@rhondafelkins7337 I've done this before and it's great. I take a little corn syrup to the frosting making a syrup to put on the cinnamon waffle.
Love ur energy Becky. I believe that u could do anything. U are so brilliant.
I made these breakfast sandwiches for my Grandson. He can eat them when he is home for breakfast or lunch when his Mom and Dad are at work. Summer break from school.
I have the Cuisinart Double Belgian Waffle Maker and it’s AMAZING. It’s not small. You mentioned you got the one you did because it’s small. The Double makes two at once, you can customize how light or dark they get and the waffles are nice and thick with deep waffle print. Making two at once when trying to feed a crowd really comes in handy. I have never gotten uneven cooking and it comes with a scoop so you get just the right amount in each waffle. Highly recommend!
Thank you for these receipts. You are amazing. I am 76 and I enjoy you so much. It is like you come to my house and cook. I find my-self thinking about you and giggling as you feel like a grand daughter and I wish you were. I also love your mother. Thank you
I subscribed when you said, "I don't like to cook on teflon." I don't eat breakfast, but what a great way to have a quick meal ready to go.
There are other nonstick cookware besides teflon...🌷
I use my cast iron skillet to prepare eggs. Whether fried or scrambled, they turn out great. Make sure your pan is warm, not hot, and let your eggs set before you try to turn them. Comes out every time.
Two words- cast iron!
Homemade febreeze
1/4 c fabric softener
1Tbsp baking soda
Warm water in spray bottle shake and use
You will enjoy that waffle maker for quickie breakfasts. You can use them to cook scrambled eggs as well, and you can use it for cake and brownie snacks...pour it thin for brownie brittle. Try sweet potato in your next waffle batter and serve it with dinner.
Do you have a recipe for brownie brittle?
totes gonna use your sweet potato idea. thanks
@@nadiacruel99I'm a lot like Becky and I'm experimental and I don't follow recipes. Let's see...I would start with a bit thinner/quicker moving batter. Maybe with a typical brownie batter as a baseline...go less flour and add some coconut milk or even a little coke or root beer. If you added soda pop or la croix...the bubbles would reduce the need for any sort of leavening (baking soda or powder). I would experiment with a sheet pan in the oven before you adapt it for waffle iron. Pour it thin in the pan. Bake it lower temp and longer time so it comes out dry and crunchy. You could also try that recipe in a crepe pan. I don't know how picky you are to try new things and expect certain results. If you have a house full of teenagers you can get away with more creative pursuits 😜. Chocolate charcoal? Yes please! Hahahah
@@damaxpowerway enjoy!
@@lethiapage4767 thank you! I do not have a house full of teens but do my husband and his friends count?! It would be great for boardgame night
I am so thankful that you and Josh share your life with us! You are so fun to watch! I love watching how you and your mom work together! ❤️ 💕 💖 💓 💗 💛 ❤️ 💕 💖
Super grateful that you upload so much awesome content
Glad you enjoy it!
I’m up checking on water and ice for our first tropical storm of the season. In Florida Mostly a rain event. So I’m checking out your breakfast meals and boy I’m hungry. I’ll do that another time. Your like the little bunny! I’ve been getting emails so thank you Becky. Your close to 300,000. Wow so congratulations. I know these Meals are fresh and hummy🥓🍳🧅🌯☕
Praying you and your family are safe , South Carolina is expected to get rain and wind too !
I love to just prep my veggies. I keep then in Ziplocs. So at least when i cook, i won't have to chop onions or peppers etc.
I really love seeing your face throughout the whole video, like in your older videos, just hanging out with Becky and hearing you say "hello friends " is my favorite!!!
I know other channels have there thing with but I think You make the channel not fancy shots( i dont really like fancy shots, simple hanging out with you is nice!). Also I'm just one opinion :) love all you share with us!!!
Co-incidence… I recently bought a waffle maker for making breakfasts in advance and freezing them. Unfortunately for me the delivery got messed up and a week later the delivery agents have an investigation underway. That’s another week to wait, then a replacement delivery. Patience is a virtue apparently, one I seemingly lack! You can cook eggs on your waffle maker by the way, they appear to cook up really nicely
Hi Becky, I was really glad you remembered the cheese for the burritos. I was like BECKY THE CHEESE. YOU NEED THE CHEESE IN THERE TOO!! 😂. Great recipes.
I like making a savory breakfast casserole and adding mustard to it while baking. It's such a nice touch.
You're so natural in the kitchen, down to Earth and organized, also I've seen many recipe videos but haven't seen cheese being shredded so effortlessly like that! What food processor is that, it seems so quiet, is it?
I also appreciate that you are trying to use quality ingredients and that you're considerate of occasional background noise, so glad to have found your channel!
I have Onion Googles. Highly recommended! I’m crazy sensitive to onions and the googles are a must for me.
Good to know!
You are such an inspiration Becky! We have a small kitchen and the only freezer space we have is the compartment above the fridge, but I made space so I could try some of your recipes and have some meals to last us through the heatwave that was coming here to the PNW (we have no air conditioning). I made the breakfast sandwiches, breakfast burritos, Amish casserole and I also made your tortellini salad and Cowboy caviar (from one of your other meal prep videos) the same day. Having meals prepped before that heatwave was just such a blessing. Our favorites are the tortellini salad and the breakfast burritos, but we like all of them and I will definitely make them all again. Thank you for being so real. You feel like family - you’re awesome. ❤️
Hi from London 🇬🇧 am really enjoying the great ideas for pre-made breakfast thanks so much for your time and effort.
Becky I called in sick and I've stayed home to binge watch your videos...thank you for being such a light every day but especially on days when I'm not my best 😊 sending love from the Pacific Islands.
Pre-made breakfasts? We love your oatmeal casserole. I also like to have homemade frozen waffles or pancakes that I can just pop in the toaster. I also like making a bunch of breakfast burritos in the freezer
When I made freezer breakfast sandwiches I beat and seasoned a bunch of eggs and cooked them on a baking pan/ cookie sheet that had raised edges and baked them, then I cut the pan into squares for the amount of sandwiches I wanted to make.
You did it again Becky now I’m going to be making my freezer breakfast meals😊 I thank you and for helping me out 😊
Best over easy eggs I make in my cast iron. They never stick. I always have it well seasoned.
Made the burritos last night and had one for breakfast it was AMAZING! Can’t wait to try more varieties
You are the most real person I've seen lately. Thank you for taking the time to make videos.
I really need to start breakfast prepping. You make it all looks so easy. Thanks for sharing! You definitely give me some motivation!
Hi Becky, tip with the tortillas: lighty warm the tortillas before you roll them. They will be softer and easier to roll into a burrito, it will also prevent the tortillas from ripping when rolling up. I use a pan and just warm them a few seconds on each side (approx 10-15 sec.) on each side and boom done!
Excited for this video after seeing on Instagram. Everything look so delicious.
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@AcreHomestead I greatly enjoy all your videos and always learn a lot. Thanks :)
Great ideas, for breakfast. Thanks, Becky...
