I subscribe to lots of “mom content” channels, and I must say that you, Ariel, are the ONLY RUclipsr that genuinely makes my day better every time. The only one. ❤️❤️❤️
I made the pumpkin chili tonight and it was DELICIOUS! My husband is a really good cook and we like to discuss how we’d improve a dish while we eat it for the first time, but we had ZERO notes on this one! It’s perfect as is, and it was so easy. It’s going in our regular rotation. I want to try the drumsticks too! Thanks for the great ideas; seeing you make it gives me confidence that I can do it too :)
The best thought out, planned and edited video I've watched since your last one! I LOVE how you "piggy back" one meal off another! And I am definitely going to make meatloaf sandwiches that way next time it's on the menu! One quick helpful hint I make use of: when I plan out my menu and post it on the fridge, I always write the meat I need to take out of the freezer to thaw the morning before...for example, if we're having meatloaf on Wednesday, I will make a note on Tuesday to take the hamburger out to thaw for tomorrow. Keep the fantastic videos coming! You are a-DOR-able!
I struggle to come up with meals for me and my husband, hardly feels worth it to cook for 2 people more than 3 times a week. Weaving the meals into each other is a wonderful tip, can’t wait to start my list of meals we eat !!
Best bacon hack is to throw the whole pack on a foil-lined cookie sheet and toss in the oven at 400 degrees. Done in 15-20 minutes with way less mess! 😊
And don't forget to strain & save that bacon grease 😋 I call it liquid gold & use it to fry eggs & add a little to some chicken recipes in the crockpot/instant pot or to grilled chicken. It adds so much more flavor!
I've watched a few of your videos now, but this is the first I have felt the need to comment and thumbsup on. Really like that you use your leftovers in new ways - I just feed family the same thing for three nights. Would love more of your ideas / recipes. More boar wants more!
One thing I learned running a cafe kitchen many moons ago - people who like onion, like onion. Also, so many thank yous for your content. I have MS and epilepsy and it helps me to undo my troublesome brain (and troublesome house). 1000 thank yous. ❤🙌
Leftovers are really rare in our house. If they are, they become part of our lunches for the next day. I meal plan by the sales. Chicken on sale, let's find some recipes. My husband hated that his mom repeated meals. So I'm always looking for new recipes. We are onion lovers.
Lol, husbands make things hard sometimes, huh😁 Mine (a medical professional) hates vegetables. Hates them! My mother in law got me that Jessica Seinfeld cookbook if recipes she made for her kids where she hides veggies in it- very good recipes! I learned you can make macaroni and cheese with sweet potatoes; who knew? Good luck on your guy😉
My husband loves leftovers and I don’t usually make enough for leftovers cause I hate them 😆 I’m the complicated one but it’s okay since I cook the meals anyway!
@@gohawks3571 I don't mind. I like trying to make new recipes. We make a great pair. The internet has thousands of recipes. It's an adventure of sorts.
@@danicegewiss862 I, too, like cooking something new, but over my many years I have found a few that repeat - at least once a year. To repeat myself every month would be far too boring. As I live alone and still cook for 2 or 4 as the recipes are laid out for that many, I freeze meals and yes, I do eat another portion of that dish usually in that very week - I am not as strung up about repetition. But when I cook I usually try a new recipe. Not only is the internet so very helpful (you can search for ingredients you have and want to use) - I also have loads of cook books from pre-internet times. Yeah, I am old.
I really appreciate how authentic you are. It can be easy with YT to get sucked into being “like everyone else.” And I know how time-consuming editing is so thank you. I laughed out loud in the beginning of this one. And oh yeah. I could use help meal planning. 😉
I like how you made the meatloaf into more meals. It seems to me that whenever I make meatloaf though, no matter how much I make, there are no survivors for leftovers anyways. But I will definitely tuck these 2 recipes in the back of my head for one day when the starving boys are off to college and it's just us again 🥰
“Copy me that” is my favorite online recipe tool. You put your recipes in and then select what you want to eat on which day. Then it makes a grocery list for you and you can just check off what is already in that pantry. It’s a time saver 🤗
Meatloaf sloppy Joes and meatloaf chili are really good uses for leftover meatloaf, too :) You can also fry it up and mix it with scrambled eggs. Just in case you need more ideas.
Haha! I know what you are talking about with those onions! I used to hate them as a kid, but now I'm adding them to every meal that is not soup. Also I love tomatoes with onions, salt, pepper and a little vinegar or natural joghurt!
Thank you so much for having both components of success in one video. I hate the meal planning videos that seem all theoretical. Your style is so dang practical. Like if you were a fairy, you would be the practical fairy. Making things happen with ease. That’s real magic right there. We use leftovers for my husband’s lunches. He loves eating the same thing over and over. I don’t. This made me rethink the process though. Recycling leftovers would free up some serious time. The meatloaf got you 3 days from I day of serious work. That’s success in my life. I wish we lived next door. You are so much fun!!!
I just love reading your comments Wendy 🥰 thank you! That's pretty cool that your husband is happy with eating the same thing repeatedly. I'm sure it makes your life easier!!
I like the shape you guys made the pizza! I need to try that soon. It looks easier to make multiple types of pizza all in one if you want more than just pepperoni!
Great ideas! Love how you walked us through an entire week. We have a few local stores that offer $5 rotisserie chicken and I’m always repurposing those leftovers to keep dinners easy and interesting!
Years ago, I didn't have any crackers or bread crumbs, so came about my Mexican Meatloaf. I added crushed tortilla chips, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, onion, cheddar cheese, hotel, tablespoons of salsa or rotel, egg & ground beef. You can put Enchilada sauce & cheese on top or omit salsa in meatloaf & put salsa on top with cheese.🎉
I love how you start with the protein that's on sale for the week to base your meals around! It's such an approachable approach...idk how else to phrase it, but I usually feel overwhelmed when I think of meal planning because I just don't know where to start and this would undo all that anxiety
Too much cheese is a great philosophy as a fellow New Yorker I can say your pizza def looks like it gives NY pizza a run for its money. Love the idea of using leftovers for a new meal. Great video Ariel you most certainly are a meal prep Doc-tor 😉
I know sometimes raw onions & garlic change the flavor of recipes, I love onions as well but for a meat loaf & other recipes I'll saute them first or use onion powder. Great weekly meal prep thanks for sharing. Cute 😍 little helper 👦:)
I love onions! But I sauté them before adding to meatloaf :) I love that you have a normal kitchen with regular pans. It’s so much more relatable than the super fancy channels.
I’m a big meal planner too. In fact I plan breakfasts, lunches and dinners including dessert. Having a big family, I’m in the kitchen a lot, but when you love to cook, it’s my happy place.
Tip for making meatloaf... use a large oven-safe pan (like cast iron) and shape the meatloaf into a giant ring/donut shape. It cooks way faster that way and you can still slice it for sandwiches next day.
That pumpkin chicken chili sounds amazing! I'm going to make a note in my future meal planning and this would be especially perfect on a cold Fall day . 💖
You are too funny love the video. My daughter always asks what's for breakfast she's 18. I took her to the kitchen by the hand and pointed. cereal, eggs, frozen waffles, frittata, leftover pizza, You can make scrambled eggs, bread, peanut butter and jam, and smoothies
I'm full on gut laughing about your stabbing potatoes bit, lol🤣😄🤣 so funny!! Thank you for all these great ideas! I was getting so BORED of what I always make. And thx for the much needed humor, again😁
Mondays in my house is the standing weekly pizza night for exactly why you mentioned! And I love starting off the week with a no brainer meal. Great video, loved it!!
It must be a NY thing to have cucumbers with Italian dressing. I made it 1 time for some friends in GA and they looked at me weird. But they came around to the yumminess.
Idk why they would look at you weird. I'm from Georgia and I've eaten cucumbers and Italian dressing or cucumbers and vinegar my whole life. 😋 it's so delicious either way.
I realize this is an old video. But, can I say I enjoyed this and would love to see other videos about meal planning. It was great to see the “using leftovers” idea in practice.
Love your videos! I found your cleaning videos and became hooked. I am a seasoned mom but it's nice to see what other mom's do, and you are doing a great job! May I make one suggestion as a foodie, a home chef and a meat loaf lover? No matter how you season your meatloaf, it is important to use one egg per pound of meat if you want a more tender meatloaf. Not enough egg will make it tough and hard to cut.
Thank you for always making such hilarious and approachable content. Your videos always make me feel excited to do mundane tasks and like I can easily accomplish anything. Excited to try some meal planning with your advice in mind, and some of these recipes! I’d love to see more of these meal planning videos
You are so wholesome and funny! I am vegan.. my family is not. So, I struggle with making their meals some weeks and you have some really good tips to remedy that! Thank you 💚 😊
I love your videos. One thing I learned about, from my daughter, was frozen chopped onions. I am a vegan and make bean and rice dishes. Almost everything needs chopped onions, and that is one step I can skip. I just measure them out, and go.
Please do more videos like this! I meal plan already but you have given me some wonderful ideas using leftovers, I don’t know why I haven’t ever thought of that! Also, I love your sense of humor, I literally laughed out loud.
I use Heinz 57 in my meatloaf with egg and breadcrumbs, and of course I chop onion for it too!! Seasoning and bake, I put a little Heinz on the top for the last 15 minutes in the oven. My mom used ketchup, I kicked it up a little. Love the videos, thank you!
Mon: Left over Chicken Pizza Tue: Baked Potatoes Wed: Crispy Chicken Drumsticks with mashed potato and cucumber w/ dressing Thu:: Pumpkin chilli, using left over chicken Fri: Meatloaf and Scalloped Potatoes Sat: MeatLoaf Manwiches? :D Sun: Spaghetti bolognese and fresh salad. Thank you for the inspiration Ariel!
I made the chicken pumpkin chilli. It was so delicious! We definitely want to have it again. I did make it a little different. I had no onions, bellpepers, or garlic so I used onion powder. For beans I used home canned kidney beans and bean soup. I put in the cream cheese instead of the coconut. Thank you so much for sharing! I can't wait to try the drumsticks recipe.
OMG you are hilarious, just found and binged your videos! And you are not a messy, this is a phase in your life with young children yet you get ALOT completed. You're incredible 👍
I'm an onion appreciator. Not the hubby, but I learned if they're totally cooked he's fine. He doesn't like the texture of fresh onions. I'm excited to try that pumpkin chili! Great video. Girl, you're hilarious.
I love the idea of making the pumpkin chili recipe but vegetarian. It's easy enough to substitute fake ground beef for the chicken, but i guess I'll try sauteeing it initially with the onions and peppers. Excited to try!
First time here😊you cook like I do..always piggy back food, Queen of leftovers here☺️good thing my husband likes leftovers revamped or not😅great video..!
I shop Friday mornings, so Thursday at lunch we plan. Each person (4) has to pick one meal, then I fill in the gaps. Then the kids can't complain when supper was literally their idea.
Where have you been all my mom life, That Awkward Mom? Please keep the amazing and hilarious content coming. Power to the moms!
Thanks Sarah! ❤️
Agreed.
Yes!!! Keep em coming!
Yes, yes, yes! Love you after one vid, Awkward Mom!
❤
I saw a meme recently that said the hardest thing about being an adult is realizing you have to plan meals every single day for the rest of your life!
This is the most realistic meal plan ive ever seen!
Me too! Now I want all her meal plans! I don’t have the mind to know what comes after what!!
How have i waited this long to watch this?! The idea of a separate, specific list of leftovers recipes is genius!
I subscribe to lots of “mom content” channels, and I must say that you, Ariel, are the ONLY RUclipsr that genuinely makes my day better every time. The only one. ❤️❤️❤️

One of my foster kittens really enjoyed watching this video 😂. Her siblings were sleeping but she was GLUED to the tv!
Even though I'm an old and seasoned housewife I certainly learn a lot from you! Thank you, dear🥰🥰
😊 you're welcome!
Wow, what a compliment!
15:27. Thank you for breaking the spaghetti in half! I thought I was the only one who did that.
Your so down to earth!! You are humble and hilarious with great resourceful and affordable meals/ideas! Girl you are a rare gem!

@@namuseraici not that I've noticed but my oven is rarely pristine.
I have always made it this way..4 teenagers eat lots of bacon😋
Your channel is a breath of fresh air! Thank you for keeping things simple and realistic. The meal plan video has been my favorite.
The pumkin chili I made for meal deliveries for church families. Everyone loved it!! Thanks!!😀
We love it so much we make it multiple times a month! Glad they enjoyed it 😊

I learned you can mix the flour with the egg(add a little water) coat chicken then in the bread crumbs..eliminates one of the bowls and works great😊
You definitely need to do more weeks like this. LOVE this video!
I agree. Most fun meal planning video ever.

You are the meal planning queen! Brilliant how you take one meal to the next! Also I didn’t hear one winner winner chicken dinner 😂 comon!
Lol you're right you're right...
I realize this is an old video. But, can I say I enjoyed this and would love to see other videos about meal planning. It was great to see the “using leftovers” idea in practice.
I love this video! I am trying to figure out the art of reusing leftovers and this was very helpful.. and entertaining. I'd love to see more of these.
I thoroughly impressed with the variety you have. Everything seems so flavorful. I'm totally gonna try the pumpkin chicken chili.
1:35--the meal planning list of ideas is genius
I have teens so I have to hide my leftover bacon in a package of frozen peas. Leftovers? Not sure what that is. Haha!
Hahaha that's smart!
Noice😉
Hahaha I LOVE this idea.

I still make it sometimes up to four times a month, love it!
Wow it all looks awesome! I like to make my meatloaf in a bundt pan so the slices fit easily on the bread.
I’m dying 😂. I wish my voice overs were as amazing as yours. You are a hoot! Thanks for giving me a much needed laugh.
Great content! I always enjoy seeing how other people meal plan/cook. 👍👍
Girl! I watch SO MANY cooking channels! I need more from you! Please?
I really enjoyed! Thank you💗

Leftover bacon? What's that 😂 another great video 👍
Lol! Thanks 😊
I thought the same thing!! Bacon doesn’t last more than 10 minutes around this place!! 🤣
I love this video. Reusing the drumsticks for the soup and meatloaf for spaghetti are genius! More videos like this!
The pumpkin chili is delicious. Definitely adding it to my recipe box.
I use Heinz 57 in my meatloaf with egg and breadcrumbs, and of course I chop onion for it too!! Seasoning and bake, I put a little Heinz on the top for the last 15 minutes in the oven. My mom used ketchup, I kicked it up a little. Love the videos, thank you!

Thanks Mary!
I like you. Down to earth unlike a lot of moms on here. Love you and mindy!
I like how you turn your leftovers into a different meal. Thank you so much for the great ideas!
I love how you seriously use up every bit of your leftovers for every dinner.Genius!
I love your channel! This is my favorite style of video that you do. :)
I am a grandmama now but I still need 💡 ideas. I like the way you take left overs and make new meals. God bless
This is one of your best videos so far. Thank you

Please make more of this type of video! Super helpful.
