I want to thank you for watching today's video! I hope you have a wonderful day! It has turn into a sunny day here so after I finish making a humming bird cake I plan to spend the afternoon outside! - Becky
Enjoy the vitamin D and warm rays Ms Becky!
Hola Becky and Friends ❤
Love you and your videos! Have fun☀️
Enjoy! ❤ & God bless
You are such a fantastic, thoughtful sister and auntie amazing love your channel 😊
My husband has gotten used to hearing your name, Becky. I am one of the 70 yr old Nana’s that have gotten back into food preservation and make-ahead meals for those busy days. At lunch, we ran out of mayo and I told him I was going to try making my own. He said, you should… channel your inner Becky! Lol! You ARE an inspiration! Thanks for choosing this as your business! We are loving it!
My husband too lmbo 😅❤
My husband is always "hey Becky!"
My husband too!
Ah sweet! ☺
Me too! ❤
We all need a sister/aunt/daughter/friend/cousin/friend/etc like you !! This is SO unbelievably thoughtful & sweet of you. Many blessings to you sweet girl 🫶🥰
My daughter just Monday (less than 48 hours ago) had her 4th child. Now she has two boys and two girls. I want to make her some freezer meals before we fly home in two weeks. This video is timely for me.
Congratulations!
Becky, where were you when I had my children? Actually, the truth is, you weren’t born yet, my boys are in their 40’s. In any event, you are so generous and some of these meals look and sound delicious. Congratulations on your new nephew, glad to,hear that all went well🤗
I have to say here in the south, a lot of churches set up.a meal train for families during births, illness, and deaths. We have been on the receiving side of this many times. I have also been on the giving side and it is really great.
My daughter also gave birth to a daughter in the early hours of the 8/4/24 but I haven’t been much help as I’m a full time carer for my hubby,but I’m going to prep her a few meals for the freezer so she can rest with the little one without having to stress about cooking a meal for her partner when he comes home from work.This vlog has given me some good ideas.
You are so generous and I love this for your family x I would feel so inferior as your sister in law! (I can't cook!) But I'd be so grateful 🙏
What a loving, kind, and generous sister you are!
You are a great sister. Not only are you providing her and her family delicious meals, but you are cooking what she asked for. I absolutely love it. ❤️ ❤
So, several years ago when you started prepping your freezer meals, I started doing them, too. However, since my handwriting is illegible and I gift a lot of meals, I bought 4x5" labels in bulk and used an online well known label design application to type up all the different labels. All I write in is the date, # of servings and I left 2 lines on the bottom for notes. Everything else is already preprinted and saves me from making mistakes or omissions. For some folks that have allergies, I also later added a list of basic ingredients (like "includes dairy, butter, soy, wheat, corn, etc). The labels have been a game changer and eliminated any questions.
Great idea
Perfect start for this video. I immediately liked and subscribed, based on content and you, Becky. Bless you.
Next time, save the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. It can be put in fridge to use in salad dressings or frozen in ice cube trays for using to saute onions, peppers for extra flavor in recipes. 😊❤
Dip with feta and bread! My fav.
It emulsifies beautifully into mayonnaise
I didn't know you could freeze oil❤
@@jakemelinkoYes.
I cannot think of a more wonderful and supportive gift than this for an expectant mother, especially one with two other children already! Your sister will no doubt think of you with love and gratitude each time she makes up any of these to feed their family. I've NO idea how you're able to get SO MANY MEALS made in such a short time frame...well, actually that's not entirely true. I kinda do. You worked your butt off putting up all the produce from your garden so that you could just open jars and frozen veg in freezer bags to make up things more quickly! But still, it's AMAZING how many meals and treats you managed to make up in one long morning...absolutely amazing. So loving and supportive of you!
Becky, you are a beautiful soul. You’re not only helping your sister but you’re helping so many people with your vlogs. Josh fell in love with you because you’re just as beautiful on the outside as you are in your heart and spirit. I’m sure the meal was just a lovely bonus 😊. Thank you for your light in this sometimes dark world. We need more Becky’s in this world ❤
Seeing so many homesteader/ family channels, I am SO happy that you do not put your child in the public eye! What you leave out of your videos is every bit as important as what you put in.
I have a 13-year-old granddaughter and had to tell her mother, my daughter, #1 My granddaughter's profile picture was WAY too mature for her (then) 10-year-old self. I then backed that up with how many sex offenders lived less than 5 miles from their house.
Our children only get ONE childhood, guard it and guide them! If we don't, the wrong people will.
Absolutely agree. Bexkys channel is fabulous meals gardening and no private life !
Naturally, please do pass on all our love and well wishes to the x3 Mommy!!!
You are a great sister , I am sure she is thankful for you doing that for her and her family
I wonder if Becky made all her own freezer meals before she gave birth. I could see her doing that!
@BathtubLovingGuy I believe she did but she also had a food train where people brought her food every day for a week or so. Friends and family helping when they can is wonderful! ❤
Yes, she did.❤
Becky watching you add the blueberries to the batter, I remember your mom saying to dust the fruit with flour before adding & they won't sink to the bottom.
Always!
Always and I kept thinking the scissors are in the dishwasher 😅
ps if you wanna save more time making cookies: make a pil/sausage from the completed dough, 2 inch thick. wrap it plastic wrap. Refrigerate for min 30 minutes or freeze. When you need the cookies, cut aprox 0,5 inch and bake. Sorry for my very bsd english... Sending love from the Netherlands 😘
That is a wonderful idea, Thanks.
I do that, makes things easier
Adding carrots to red sauce is GENIUS!! Thanks for that tip.
Just got home from my daughter’s and made her 9 freezer meals for them. Their daughter just 12 y/o had major back surgery so she will be a busy Mama and hope the meals ease some pressure of her day
Bless their hearts. I had major spinal surgery at 12yo, then wore a body cast for a year. My mother was amazing.
Prayers for your granddaughters recovery 🙏❤️🙏
I hope your granddaughter is on the mend and has a smooth recovery. Sending best wishes from Australua. ❤
WOW, that was an incredible, major 2 day meal prep marathon Becky!!! I remember when you had your little one and how many delicious and thoughtful meals you and Josh enjoyed while you were recuperating. How lovely that you can now return the gift❤❤❤
I bet your granddaughter had scoliosis surgery. I had the surgery as an old lady, 32. The surgery has better success at 12.
I just got home from the hospital (minor outpatient surgery) and so happy to have my first cup of coffee @1540 hrs with a new Becky video!
Healing vibes your way :)
Add lemon zest to your blueberry batter oh my gosh, it elevates it to another level.
Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your kitchen and all the wonderful recipes! I have been watching for a few weeks and just completed my first big batch cooking of freezer meals. I am a widow and found it hard to scale back and just cook for myself, so usually just shared what I made with my daughters or parents or friends so I didn't eat the same thing several days in a row. I was in the habit of cooking a few meals on Saturday and just re-heating throughout the whole week. My oldest daughter works second shift and mentioned it has been hard to cook healthy meals when she is tired after her shift or got busy and forgot to thaw meat before leaving for work. She has issues with her blood pressure and wanted to stop getting fast food or restaurant meals so much due to amount of sodium in them. I decided your meal planning/freezer meals would be the answer for both of us. I printed a ton of recipes from your videos and other websites and put them in a 3 ring binder in sheet protectors (I ended up with 2 of the 3 ring binders full). I also included several of my own tried-and=true recipes just to have everything in the same place. I spent a day shopping at Costco and Aldi and the next day started cooking. It took me 2 days (5 to 6 hours each) because I can't stand for long periods of time due to injuries from car accident years ago. I ended up with 6 different breakfast meals and 14 dinner meals for each of us. I made the lasagna noodles, tortillas, and sub rolls from scratch. Total cost was $290 which we split. I packaged my meals into smaller portions so ended up with more bags/containers than she did, but now I won't have to eat the same thing several days in a row and we both have nutritious meals ready to go that will last us quite awhile. Her husband loved what he ate so far and said we need to do again and they both will help so it goes faster and doesn't flare up my pain levels as much. I am looking forward to that as it will be quality time together too! Thank you for the inspiration! I have been baking since I was 5 and love spending time in the kitchen, but your process helped me kick it up another level. You are a blessing!
I love that they are going to help you make the next batch! I made the pot roast in a jar and gifted them at Christmas. I’ve had requests for more so I’m taking my canner to them so they can help me. I’ve done one family and it was really great to work together and saved so much time.
I haven't seen this video yet; I've been busy browsing your website! Josh built it, right? Great job. I was a web designer/content developer before I retired, so I know a competently built site when I see one. I just love the flower motif on your new guide. The depth of info on the overall site is excellent as well. But I would expect that level of quality from the two of you!
What a great resource!
Congratulations to your sister! I have 3 and each time is different so it’s awesome you have the forethought and giving personality to have her covered ❤
I live in Southern California. I rinse my jar by transferring the water from one jar to another, to save water. I know where you live water isn’t as precious. ❤
Everyone should be aware and care in this world community! Great suggestion submitted in a kind way.
I do that when I remember to but where I live no shortage. We have a friend who lives in Ridgecrest California and the things he tells us are terrible. He talks about fines and restrictions. It sounds awful.
@shelliparker6528 usually Becky adds water to jar to rinse and then dumps said water into the recipe. She is very conservative even with paper goods, please give grace on occasion when she doesn’t completely do everything perfect.
Water is precious no matter where you live.. and if things are that bad in Cali then thank your politicians that you voted in.
Have a great day!
@@Jenniferscrazylifewhat a nasty reply .she was not even unkind .
Let me shower then n imbon my way
What a sweet and kind gift for your sister! I wish I had someone to do that for me when I had 4 children! You are such a hard worker Becky and I love your videos!
Q: could you do some freezer meals for one person? Comfort food for a 73 year old! LOL! ♥
I have the easiest way to make lasagna. Don’t use the lasagna pasta.
My Momma always made what she called
“Lazy Mama‘a Lasagna.
Everything is the same ingredients, but she would use the Bow Tie pasta. Cook Bow ties So they’re slightly firm.
Drain pasta. Than
mix/turn in all ingredients . Pour in into pan. And bake of freezer.
NO more layering
Ingredients hold it all together
cooking for one - it never made sense to make pan of lasagna - like you I use pasta rather than lasagna noodles - freeze it in 2 cup Pyrex bowls - call it my deconstructed lasagna oven bowl - its also gluten free and for lactose intolerant me 😜 love seeing what other folks prep and freeze - am in my mid sixties can always use fresh ideas for old favourites 🇨🇦🙏
God bless you for what you do for your family / for your sister and her growing family / and for the YT community - its shortly after midnight when I’m watching this - am making list (long list 🤣😂) of meal ideas AND I’m now really hungry 😂🤣 better see what’s in the fridge for a late night something - thnx again 🇨🇦🙏
Bless this woman and her giving heart
Such a blessing. All the very best to your sister and the family! My husband loves when he comes in and hears your voice coming through, he says with delight "Becky!". He knows I get inspired to do more meal preps after watching your videos. :)
Your whole family should know how fortunate you are to have each other. Thanks, Becky, for another comforting and grounding video!
Becky, What a joy you are for your sister. My family never bothers. Your sister is so loved and fortunate. I sure wish I had you. ❤
Woo hoo! A new video
You are a great sister! Wow! You have a lovely family.
Love watching you cook learn so much and going to enlarge my garden this year after watching you in your garden. 😂
So nice of you! thanks for watching!
WHAT A SWEET SISTER YOU ARE shes so bleesed to have you
I don't comment a lot, but I often come to this channel to read very kind words towards you and the suscribers. It really enhaces my mood to know or read that people is good.
Congratulations to your sister and her family on their newest addition! What a wonderful sister you are to help make her homecoming easier!!❤
I was just making a list for a month worth freezer food. So nice watch you doing big prepare also❤ now adding muffins! Perfect idea for my kiddos!
You have inspired me. I did a double batch of strawberry jam, double batch of triple berry jam and strawberry lemonade concentrate. I am planning my freezer meal cooking day now. I have made your parmesan chicken twice. It is so good. I have a Blackstone. I love it. Krusteaz has the best store brought mix. You should buy paper plates and forks in bulk since you do a lot of meals for people. They never go bad.
I found your channel about 2 weeks ago at 75 I really enjoy new recipes you are great and I have really really enjoyed it watching you I will follow you as long as I'm here God bless you Grandma Judy from Louisiana
I love your videos so much. I’m a vegan, so I can’t follow your recipes exactly but you inspire me so much to bulk cook and simply make swaps on recipes that you’re making to fit my dietary preferences. Thanks for everything!
You are such a considerate sister. How nice of you to make all of those meals for her and think about providing her with disposable dishes. You're the best!
I used this exact lactation cookie recipe with both my babies and they taste and work really well. One of the big advantages of the brewer’s yeast is that it’s extremely rich in iron, which mamas often need postpartum. However, one thing to note is that the body needs copper in order to absorb iron efficiently; so, I add a scoop of pumpkin seeds (rich in copper) to maximize the nutrition. It also just tastes yummy and adds great crunch.
I have been doing freezer meals for my husband for days I'm working or on a bus. trip. You are an inspiration
That is awesome!
Congratulations to your sister and her family, welcoming their new boy!!
Congrats to your sister! I have been doing the same thing with all the meal prep today. I managed to get 6 family meals and 8 individual meals done, plus a bunch of veggie prep items I like. Gardens are already in here in TX so I’m getting a lot busier now.
That is a very generous gift for your sister. You are awesome Becky!
I’m glad I watch this video mainly for the stands that hold the bags I have never seen those but I need them desperately but as someone that has a special-needs 18-month-old and absolutely no energy as a 37-year-old with health problems and pregnant again I am extremely thankful for videos like this if I don’t have family to help but if I can get a husband to help this one day I can dedicate to cooking and be prepared for the week you know so thanks for making videos like this
So many yummy meals and goodies for your sister and her family. What a blessing!
You are one of and the only youtuber that my family always see when they turned on the TV, even your older videos keep popping up. That's how much I love watching your videos.

You are such a good sister! I know she must be so thankful for you!
Thank you Becky. You are such an inspiration to so many. I want to do freezer meals but I have no ideas. Then when I watch you, I have so many. Keep up the good work. Thanks again from Alabama. ❤
Yum..all the recipes look amazing. You are such a thoughtful sister and auntie. I try to always make 2 of whatever i am cooking only one mess and with spring here there isn't enough time for cooking so i pull a freezer meal out. Love watching you cook i feel like i know you through your channel. As always thank you so much for sharing
What an absolutely amazing sister! Much respect.
Bless you Becky, you are such a kind sister. What a beautiful family you must have. Thank you for these recipes! I told my husband tonight that I’m making 2 kinds of marinated chicken I can cook on the grill for him. I can’t wait! It all looks so so good. I really love your channel. 🥰
I can’t believe how hard you work, but know you really enjoy cooking and gardening. You make it look so easy. 😊
Love these "cook once" videos. . Thanks so much
Makes my life a little easier!
What a beautiful, thoughtful thing to do for your sister xxx
You are amazing. What a blessing you are to your sister and her family.
I’m so impressed with you. All the prep done by 1 :00pm, and it is no wonder you are pooped! Time for another coffee. ❤️
Damn! Your sister is one spoiled women. What a blessing you are to her and her family!
You are some kind of an awesome sister! You’re an inspiration to help others when they need meals!❣️
Home grown black beans. Wow Beck, that is impressive!!❤❤
Your videos have reminded me about freezer meals ahead. I started about a month ago in that direction. Today I enjoyed the benefits. I pulled a meal for the crock pot while I made a double batch of oatmeal raisin choc chip cookie dough. i made some cookies and froze most in pan ready form. I portioned out my Greek yoghurt in "pucks" for individual servings and froze them. Then I cleaned a kitchen drawer and vacuumed! That was it for me! I was happy to have my frozen meal bail me out! My goal is to start doing more freezer meals. I only have the stamina for a few hours on my feet these days. But it does help. Thanks for your time and sharing. 😊💛🐸💚🐸😎
What a great aunt and sister.
Just wow!!! So impressive! So kind too!
Becky you are a fantastic sister !!!!
Rest girl , you look exhausted !! You’re the best !!!
Hi Becky! It's nice to see your videos. I found your channel a month ago and it's great. I am making many of your recipes and my family loves them. I am also storing meats in the freezer like you do. Thank you so much for sharing everything ❤️ 💖.
Hola Becky! Es agradable ver tua videos tengo un mes que encontré tu canal y es genial. Estoy haciedo muchas recetas tuyas y a mi familia le encantan. Tambien estoy almacenando carnes en el congelados como las haces tu. Mil gracias por compartir todo ❤️ 💖.
That grocery bill must have been something. 💵 💰 It’s so sweet she is gifting all this to her sister. Very nice thing to do for family. 😊
She didn't gift all of it, she kept half for herself.
A lot of stuff comes from her home preservation efforts 😊
She's well stocked in thr food department
Becky were did you find your 24 muffin tin at
She writes it off and makes money filming the content.
What a sweet gift to your sister and family. 😊❤
Becky you are amazing person making your sister freezer meals for her family what a blessing you are .
Great work! I never boil the dried lasagne sheets. No need if they are well covered with sauce. Thank you for the video. Appreciated!
Have a wonderful week Becky! 😊
Same to you!!
You are the best sister ever!!! I know that she very much appreciated everything you did for her and her family 😍
Thank you Becky! Your videos are so informative and I really enjoy them. Your bubbly personality is such an inspiration to me. 😊
Hi Becky, hi friends. Will definitely listen while I color with my 5 year old. I will watch again later.
Yes… I love this channel!!
Aw thanks so much!! I hope you enjoy today's video :)
Becky, you are absolutely such an amazing person! I am glad that you help your community and friends! ❤😊👍
