I love how real this video was. Kids screaming/crying in the background etc. That's real life, and I love that you show it. Your meals looked great this week, especially the chicken & rice.
I would like to second that. I really enjoy RUclipsrs who keep it real. So many of us feel pressure to make everything perfect. That will never be real life. My precious niece struggles so much with perfection and unrealistic expectations that my heart hurts for her.
I really enjoy her real you are seeing you do the mom look when your kids started getting loud was so truthful and then your little girl saying by was so cute
When I was a kid one of my favorite meals was as follows: Take a can of cream of chicken, put it in a bowl with 1/2 cup water or milk and cook for 3-4 minutes and stir well until heated through. We would then have it over toasted bread with some peas on the side. I didn’t realize it at the time, but this was always made when money was tight, but it was so delicious and still one of my favorites.
Reminds me of a dish my grandma used to make called shit on a shingle 🤣 except we made homemade bachamil sauce instead and put chipped beef or ground beef
Love it!!! I started shelf cooking the sloppy Joe mix. Super easy & yummy. 1 medium onion, chopped or 1/2 tsp. onion powder 1/2 tsp. garlic powder 5 Tbsp. ketchup 2 tsp brown sugar 1/8 tsp. lemon juice 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce 1/2 tsp. salt Homemade onion soup mix - 1/2 cup dried onion flakes 1 tsp. onion powder 1 tsp. garlic powder 1/2 tsp. celery powder 1/2 tsp. black pepper 1 tsp. dried parsley 1 tsp. salt Combine and store in airtight container
I do diced onion, diced peppers, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, once meat is cooked I add Worcestershire sauce just pour in, ketchup about 1 cup to 1&1/2 cup and mustard swirled around pan and mix. I taste and add more mustard/ ketchup or Worcestershire to my taste.
I love that you share your real life. Thats the reason i do voice over with my dinner videos because no one would be able to hear me over my kiddos either playing or singing or fighting 😂
Thank you for sharing these recipe ideas, you are a mom and you are balancing alot, don't worry about the children making noise or needing you when you spend time with us. Take care, God bless
Love it! After reading the comments I had to laugh....most families eat the same foods weekly and have kids in the background. It is called real life!! Don't change a thing:)
Great ideas. Doing the same today. Already made some rice for stir fried rice later. Cooking barley now and will save some for a breakfast or 2. Rest will go in a pantry veggie soup. Next is some beef stew meat in the instant pot. Some will go in the soup and the rest with cream of mushroom & egg noodles. Appreciate how real you are. Life happens for sure.
What a cutie your little one is. Be thankful they can run and yell and play. Some people aren’t blessed with children even if they wanted to have some 💕
This was my first time watching your video. I’m excited to see more of your videos it was real and sounded like my house and the wine on the counter was so relatable!🥰
Thanks for sharing ! Your house sounds like mine! Haha. Great video J know you got your hands full and still putting out content for everyone to view. Thank you _Im making that ravioli lasagna ! Bet it will make a great freezer meal too!
We have the same veggie chopper! I don't always use mine but if it's carrots I need to dice I do use it! It does make things much easier and quicker but it's more to clean up than just my knife. I don't normally cut my fingers but every now and then one will get in the way out of the blue! I know when you are a very very busy mom your little ones can demand your attention from time to time. I know I did when I was their age! I get along with my brother a lot better as an adult than as kids in the 70's! As always, my absolute very very best wishes to you and yours!!! Take care and I'm envious of your Kroger! We haven't had one here since the 80's!!
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 My humblest apologies!!! Rewatching your video makes me wonder just where did I think I saw something from Kroger! It must have been a different video from someone else. I am sorry about that! Not 100 yet! Though not a young man any more! Best wishes to you and yours!! Take care!
I had a can of tomato soup and a smaller can of pork and beans. I put them together (didn't drain the beans) with some water and it was a really delicious bean soup. Would totally make it again.
To beef up your chicken soup or for leftovers tomorrow make mashed potatoes and pour the soup over them. Alot of carbs but on a cold day it really does fill a teenage boys belly.
Another option for sloppy Joe night if you are low on buns,....open faced in the oven with cheese melted on them. My kids have decided they like them better than regular sandwiches.
Ohh wooww, definitely looks so delicious n amesome recipes you hv created buddy, thanks xxx for sharing this recipe, n glad to be connected with you everytime now! Cheers..😍😋🤩☝👍👌
Love your videos kids & all! Ha! Where did you get that handy chopper? I need one of those. Everything looks amazing. Something quick on the table in minutes. Great job! Looking forward to more videos & recipes. Thanks for sharing! 🌹
New Subscriber here! so happy to have you found your channel! I've been doing a pantry challenge as well! It's so fulfilling to cook from your shelves and get that food used up! Oh my gosh, your mom moment in the beginning of not being able to think when you hear the screaming...that hit home. I'm nervous to put that stuff on my channel because I feel like it would turn people off to hear screaming kids...but it didn't sound so bad from yours! Haha. Maybe I'm stressing myself out as a new youtuber trying to keep my kids quite all the time while I'm filiming...cause it feels stressful! Sorry, small rant there! haha. You did some great dinners! Maybe you could cook the whole bag of rice and then you would have half that you can use later on in another meal! I like to do that a lot. Love me some chicken noodle soup! Thanks for sharing your life and I'm so happy to have found your channel! I need more mom friends. haha
I'm so glad you found my channel! Thanks so much for your comment, that's a great idea about the rice - and I definitely endorse keeping it real with the kids and the chaos! That's real life :)
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 :)) I am 100% positive that hundreds of women completely identify with you working and motherhood! Hard to balance but with God's grace we are more than conquerors through Christ!
*Outstanding,mindful and thrifty tasty meals .love tuning in. What a brilliant channel you have developed 🔥🙌🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻* But,are you ok dear? Truly now. I see a struggle. I know you got a handle,I know it’s real life but sometimes,oftentimes we are on a knife edge coping. Isn’t there anyone that could help in sone way. Husband?? Mom ?? Sister? Friend? Can anyone offer a few hours to help you? You could do with a nice long pamper weekend away from everything,just you. And nice long naps. Blessings sent. With love and care,best wishes xxxx

I totally didn’t even notice the kids until I read your comment lol. It’s totally real life. Love it.
Love ❤️ how the bottle of wine comes out after the kids start screaming. Yaaassss, Girl! 😂🤣 Sybil is absolutely adorable! 😍😍😍
😂😂😂
I really enjoy her real you are seeing you do the mom look when your kids started getting loud was so truthful and then your little girl saying by was so cute
Exactly! So relatable to take a deeeeeep breath when the kids are yelling and acting crazy in the background. That’s me daily 🙋🏼♀️
Thank you Diane! It's real life around here

That sounds like a comfort meal!
@@so0oso0o5005 came here to say that@
Shit on a shingle is dried beef, condensed milk, hard boiled eggs, alot of butter. It isnt even cheap to make now. I spend $20 just on the meat.
We had cream of chicken soup with no water added, stir in cooked noodles & peas.
Your an awesome wife and mom so together and organized .
Thank you so much!
Can you meme that face you made in the beginning? That is how it is when I try to cook dinner...lol
Haha it would be used quite often I fear

Coleslaw is good as a side dish or on the sloppy Joe also shredded cheese is good on then too
That's a great idea!
We got an inch of sleet here today and it's snowing now, so that chicken noodle soup looks FANTASTIC! :)
Perfect day for it!
Love it! After reading the comments I had to laugh....most families eat the same foods weekly and have kids in the background. It is called real life!! Don't change a thing:)

Love your videos but you do rotate the exact same recipes. It would be great to see some new recipes that are still shelf stable.
Definitely do a lot of rotating just for convenience, but I try to add in some new stuff when I have the time
Can you substitute the carrots in the soup
How long do you cook your rice in the instant pot? All these meals look yummy!
About 15 minutes should do it for white rice!
*Outstanding,mindful and thrifty tasty meals .love tuning in. What a brilliant channel you have developed 🔥🙌🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻*
But,are you ok dear? Truly now. I see a struggle. I know you got a handle,I know it’s real life but sometimes,oftentimes we are on a knife edge coping.

I am blessed to have a wonderful support system
My kids sound like that when I’m trying to cook too. Only usually they are right under my feet too 🤨
LOL it's a sign it's time for dinner
Did you ever try 15-Bean Soup ??
Yes that's a good one! I need to bring it back in my rotation
Love your recipes looks like you could use a nanny lol keep shooting videos your a pretty lady hopefully your getting paid for them.
Just a working mom! No nanny around here, haha
I love real life videos
I'm so glad!
Is the chopper you used for celery only have one size of cut. I was thinking of ordering one but it seems like they cut a large chunk
This one has small or large chopper blades! amzn.to/3rQ5fnS
Where's Trey with the chill pills? LOL
Haha we really did need some of those
How did soup turn out ?? 😄
Great!
Where did you get the chopper
Here! amzn.to/3rQ5fnS
Her thumbnail is amusing

I know that face, mama. 🤗❤😂

Are you still doing weight watchers?
Yes! It's been up and down for me but I am trying my best
Hey Abby--I'll babysit for Free if you fly me down to Texas :) :) ----lookin to get out of Michigan after 57 yrs .......:)

You never show y’all eating the meals
We try to focus on family time during out meals! No devices.
Real life. Once you try to film the kids or pets go crazy.
Never fails!
wow More blood curdling screaming ..
