**OUR MOST ASKED QUESTIONS ANSWERED**
Q: Does Steven ever not like anything? 😂
A: Of course!! First of all, we have been married for 19 years and I was not always good in the kitchen. In fact, I was a pretty terrible cook for the first 12 years or so. So there were plenty of times when neither of us liked what I made. But I've gotten better at picking out meals that I'm pretty sure we will enjoy. I don't just go pick a recipe and cook it. I read through it and research different variations before I deem it a good one to try.
Secondly, if we were to not like something I would NOT show it here. Solely because I want to share only recipes that we would recommend. I don't want to waste your time, or my time (editing) on a recipe we would never tell anyone else to try. We've only had that happen once - and I got rid of the footage we had filmed (which was so sad because we took time to film it).
I hope that answers that question! Remember also that we only film 3 meals a week. The rest of the time we have our family favs or go out to dinner.
Q: Where did you get your chopping block/ cutting board?
A: Our friends gave it to us as a Christmas gift. :) They had a friend who made them, so it's not something that I can link to as it was handmade.
Q: What knife do you use?
A: It's a Pampered Chef knife that I've had for over 10 years. It's still hanging on!! :)
Q: You made a (insert recipe name here) one time, how do I find that video again?
A: Type in the RUclips search bar - "Mandy in the Making (recipe name)" and it should bring up the video where I made it. Click the video and then check that video's description box for the recipe. I tag all of my videos with the name of the recipes included so they are easily found. Hope this helps!

Can we just take a minute to appreciate the time she puts in to making these videos? The editing and food shots are amazing! I love watching because the quality of your videos is that of something I would see on cable tv👍🏻❤️
Totally agree, plus some humour AND our very own food critic as well 😊 👍
Kristen, this comment just MADE MY DAY. Thank you. I spend hours and hours on each one. I want every one of them to be better than the last. :)
I agree!
Kristen Tahamarzouk I was just thinking the same thing.
Ditto!
I do not say this lightly...
This. Video. Is. The Most. Realistic. Honest. Representation of family dinners I have EVER seen on RUclips! This is the channel I've been searching for my entire life!! And I watch recipe videos constantly.
*Goes to binge watch every video she's ever made*
Love how you respect that your son doesn’t want to be on camera and don’t force him or “accidentally” film him like some other parents do. All these meals made me so hungry!
Thanks!! Yes, if he will agree to be on camera again, I'd be so happy...but until then I'm totally respecting his wishes. :)
Georgina H I totally agree and she is an awesome Mom! And the recipes and videos I just love so much!!👍
+
Whoever films and edits your videos is doing a great job. I feel like I’m watching a tv cooking show.
Aw, thanks! My hubby films and I edit! We make a great team!
This meatloaf is the ONLY way to go! Bacon always makes everything so much better!! Thanks so much for all you are teaching us!
I seriously LOVE Stevens reactions! Such a sweet man. Love your what’s for dinners, Mandy!!
Thank you!!! :)
I love that you honor Cole's wishes to not be on camera. Good mama points.
Thank you :)
I was thinking the same!
I was going to comment the same thing!
Steven's religious experience with the corn was priceless!!!! And Gracie with her chicken. This is my all-time fave Mandy video.
Your husband is hilarious (and his expressive eyebrows just tickle me), you are an excellent instructor, and your son’s thumbs up from the side make me way too happy. Is there no end to the amazingness of your rockin’ family. Thanks for sharing your recipes and your family!!!!!
Aw, Julia, you are so sweet. Thank you!
I love that you're putting the bloopers in now! I swear they're making those bags child proof now but instead it's making them ADULT proof! LOL
RIGHT? I was so shocked. I gave it my best effort. LOL
I love how you're husband loved that meatloaf so much he was 1/2 done while u were still filming him lol Must have been yummy!
lol 😂 Yep he was about finished eating! That's Steven for you! 😁
I’m addicted to these videos of yours!! It really has helped motivate me to not only try new recipes but enjoy cooking again! Thank you!!!
I couldn't agree more, me too !
Yay 🙌! So glad you are benefiting from the videos! Really appreciate your support! 🥰
Me too, I have about 8 meals I want to try from your videos, that are suited to freezing leftovers (since it is one person - me - at home). Thank you for your high quality program, recipes, openness to doing subby recipes and having your darling hubby on as critic, too! And we cannot forget the elusive Cole 🤣
I dont comment much, but I must say that you and your family are so special and make me smile. I even look forward to the thumbs up your son gives. I understand not wanting to show his face on youtube. Bless you all. Hugs and smiles across the miles
Thank you, sweetie! Thank you for watching and have a great weekend! 😘
I just discovered this channel and just love how supportive her husband is and how much she respects her son’s wishes not to be on camera.
Her husband is smart
She cooks 4 him n he gives the best positive feedback so he'll always get something else. 😆 she's a good family cook
You're the best! I love your channel. My husband and I look forward to your what's for dinners all week! Please never take away the bloopers. They make you adorable! ❤
Thank you Misty! I just want y'all to see that I have a seriously goofy side to me. LOL
I have a 14 yr old daughter so I totally get it!🤣. He’s so funny and charismatic when he is on camera! You have a great family and I love your recipes! I made that cheesy taco soup last night!
You got a great family. Love that your husband and son compliment your cooking. Those are massive chicken quarters.
when spaghetti sauce in a jar came out i found one and thought "good as home made" and started using that every time. one day i just felt like going the long way and making my old sauce again. oh wow!!! its a real treat.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who can’t open bagged salad with my hands!
LOL!! It was impossible!!!!
I thought it was just me getting older and weaker!
Just a little tip. When you chop an onion by hand (not with your fancy chopper), if you leave the root end on then it holds the end together nicely, and you can just chop up to it and it stays together better and doesn't fall all over. Love your videos!
This Southern gal had never heard of Bacon Fried Corn until I found this video. So I just had to make it. I got 1 serving out of the whole thing because I dropped the Corning Wear dish onto the floor. And, if you didn't know it, I can guarantee you that it shattered into 1000 pieces. Ingredients are already on my next shopping list (sans a Corning Wear dish).! Thanks Mandy for this "change your life" recipe.
You can never make corn any other way! Changed my life! I can't take it!! 😂😂😂
I'm scared to make it! My family will say the same! 😋
So glad you took your ring off when u did the meatloaf! One of my pet peeves! 😀
😂😂 Life-changing corn! lol Thanks for watching, Jennifer! 😘😘
Love how excited your husband is over the corn!🤣💕
Right?!?! lol
Oh wow..... I have never thought of making meatloaf on a broiler pan!!! What a fabulous idea.... all the grease will run to the bottom! I will be trying this!!!
So just a little tip on your spaghetti is put some olive oil on it and toss, it just keeps it from drying out and clumping up, all the recipes on here look absolutely yummy 😋
My grandmother used to use bread with evaporated milk it made the meatloaf very rich. The Pioneer Woman is a creation just like boy bands used to be.
So glad you left that droopy glove scene in! I got so tickled when I saw it and then, when I heard your laugh! Loved it.
😂😂 Gotta have a little fun! Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! 😘
Those gloves are terrible for mixing meatloaf! Mine did the same thing the other day!
Thats so me all the way. But it dosnt bother me to mix meatloaf without gloves .been doing it all my life ,or to touch chicken or Turkey either. Just wash ure hands good. Before and after and yull be fine .
Ive never been a cat person but I love Gracie and I love her name. She is so sweet 😚. I remember the video where she was crying when you were taking her to the Dr. That was so sad, sweet and funny all at the same time!😘 Love seeing Gracie, so precious.
I’ve got to try that fried corn & bacon! Here’s a tip for you Mandy, after draining your spaghetti, I put either butter or olive oil, salt & pepper & parsley in the pot & stir to coat. It’s another layer of flavor plus it keeps the noodles from sticking together, making it easier to serve.
Yay!! I look forward to your cooking video's! I learn sooooo much and I'm 60!
Awww I love that!! Thanks for watching!
I love how your family loves to eat. I love cooking for people who love and truly enjoy food.
My husband LIVES meatloaf and my daughter & I really don’t care for it. I think we ALL will love one!
Blouse ur wearing in 3rd recipe looks lovely on you- you are so pretty.
I really enjoy you showing your husband’s responses. Really enjoying the videos too!
Thank you!
tip, to get great and smooth smashed potatoes, ditch the masher, and use your hand mixer. makes them smooth and fluffy!
I’m new from Jennifer’s A Country Life and can I just say I adore your husband’s reaction to your cooking! I would cook for him any day!!
Welcome!! Glad to have you!
Oh WOW! Another great video. I can't wait to try the spaghetti sauce and the meatloaf recipes. Thank you, Mandy for giving us such great ideas for dinner. I've said it before and I'll say it again - you are AWESOME. Thanks again.
You are so sweet!! I'm so glad you are finding recipes you want to try!!!
It was so funny when you couldn't get the salad bag opened, so glad you didn't edit that out! Everything looks delicious, as always.
That bag was legit sealed up tight! lol 😂 thanks for watching! 😘
Yay for Gracie! She finally got a bite 🥰🥰 as always I love Stephens (sp.) reactions! It all looked great
LOL, she was so happy!!
I watched this when it first went up. I was scrolling looking for something to watch and clicked on this. I saw I had watched it before but kept watching. I loved it. I especially loved Stevens reaction to the corn. I got so tickled I remember watching it the first time too. I have not made the corn but I will tomorrow. I have some chicken I need to fix so it winner winner chicken dinner at my house tomorrow.
Yay!! Little Gracie Kitty got something! I always want her to get something when she sits there with her big eyes.... (even when the food is not cat appropriate!)
She's persistent, that is for sure! LOL
Had hubby watch this video and we had to immediately run to store for frozen corn! We made the chicken and fried corn and made baked potatoes to go along with it. They were delicious and I couldn't stop eating the corn. It truly is a winner winner chicken dinner! Keep making videos, I enjoy them so much . Love you girl!!
Yay!! I'm so glad y'all tried it and enjoyed!!!
THAT meatloaf!! My husband would love it haha Bacon wrapped anything is always a win 🤤👌😋😋
YES!!!
Hi Mandy. Just love you and your family. Your dad is also absolutely awesome. Thank you for sharing every thing you do. Much love. K.
Mandy this made me smile........your husband is the bomb critic!
Thank you!
Your husband's reaction to the corn cracked me up 😂. I will definitely be making that corn for my family now.
Everything looked great! I’m a vegetarian now so trying to come up with dinner ideas for my husband every night is a challenge. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I have a really good spaghetti recipe I may have to send you I just don’t have exact measurements. I use to love Italian food and spaghetti was 1 of my favorites so I spent awhile trying to make the perfect sauce. It’s definitely a hit with everyone who has had it. Have a wonderful weekend with your family!!!
Thanks girl!
I’m excited to try the baked chicken and corn. I’ll have to let you know my husband’s reaction to the corn. Steve’s reaction was priceless! All of these recipes looked amazing. Waiting patiently for someone to invent smell-a-vision. TFS!! Have a wonderful day💕
I just showed my husband the corn...he said are you making that tonight?🤣😂 I def am!
Smell-a-vision needs to be invented for sure! 😂
Thank you for literally teaching me how to cook. My food has always tasted delicious but you’re definitely helping me branch out. Thanks for existing.
Aw i love this comment.
Such a sweet comment, Cat. Thank YOU for your support, sweetie! 😘
Mandy, another winner, 3 fabulous dinners!! Every one looked so delicious! Now I want all of them. YUM!! As usual, Gracie knows a good thing in her mama's cooking. My cat, Jessie does the same thing wanting the chicken. No wonder it looked so good. That spaghetti sauce looked fab and I am going to make it this Sunday for dinner. I love meatloaf and love to make sandwiches with the leftover meatloaf the next day. More YUM! By the way, that burgundy colored top with the flowers that you wore in your video is definitely your color. It looked so pretty on you! Love you guys and look forward to seeing you soon. Take good care. 💖😼
You are too sweet. Thank you. I hope you have a great weekend!
Mandy...my husband watched this with me and said, "You have got to make that bacon wrapped meatloaf!" And that fried corn! Can't wait to try that! I love when you stop and laugh about things. The bags and packages these day are hard to open. Have to keep those scissors close by! Your kitty is beautiful! She reminds me of one of our cats named Sugar, that has been gone for many years and is still dearly missed. :( Have a great weekend, Mandy!
Joyce, I loved reading this comment! I love to hear that you are enjoying my videos, but I also love learning things about my subscribers - like your sweet Sugar! :)
I’m just now seeing this video. The sauce at the end looks so good! I’ve never made “gravy” from scratch either. The other recipes looked yummy as well! And the Caesar salad looked so fresh and good, I was amazed. Thank you, Mandy. ❤
Hi Mandy and family, Another home run. I just love what you cook. Mandy your so relaxing to watch! You take your time in every meal you prepare. Love y'all. Happy cooking. ,🍝🥓🥗
Thanks so much!
My mom always made fried corn this way. It was a definite crowd pleaser!
You can use the dough hooks on your electric mixer to combine the meatlof ingredients without over-working the meat.
I’ve been watching your prior videos snd Lord I can’t wait to make that corn!!!! Love your hubby’s reaction!! Love all your videos Mandy. Hope u are well these days.
I love this woman’s videos!!!! And I love that she has so many!!!! I’ve been watching them for days!!!!! This woman needs her own show on tv!! All your videos are in such amazing quality and so well edited it’s like watching a cooking show on tv!! I think you need one on actual tv tho!! You have an amazing talent! I love the concept of the subbie supper!!! You have a beautiful family!!! You are very blessed and I hope you know how lucky and blessed you are!!!! Thank your for your videos and all your hard work you put into them!! Have a blessed day!! 💛💛
I'm just so happy to see you take your rings off before you touch the raw meat. I've seen sooo many people on food network touch raw meat with their rings on and I just cringe because you know their never going to get those rings completely clean
I've forgotten before! But I try to remember!!! :)
Love your Hubs reaction to the corn! Great video, Mandy!🧡
Last night I made the Pioneer Woman Meatloaf. My husband ate 2 helpings. Lol He loved it. Thank you Mandy!!!
Yay!
Thanks Mandy your dinners are always awesome! I cook my meatloaf in the crock pot on a rack for 8 hours. I pour a 1/2 cup or water in the bottom and that makes it so moist by creating the steam. I also put a combination of ketchup, brown sugar and yellow mustard for the top. It comes out amazing!
Oh that's cool! Never thought to do that!
I guess I’m gonna have to make that corn now! 😂 everything so yummy, as usual. Your family is tooooo precious!
Girl, Steven is STILL talking about it!
Love these videos, such high quality and you can feel the love in your home for sure ❤️

Hubbie Stubble!!!! You had Cole at "bacon"! It looks like you put a little extra love in your cooking. I love your dinner videos! Thank you so much for continuing to do them! I am making the corn for my family!!!!
LOL, yep, he hasn't shaved again. Guess it's coming back. LOL
Everything looks delicious, especially that meatloaf!! Thanks for sharing another wonderful week of meals!!
Thanks for watching!!
Great meals. Thanks to Lois for sharing her Mom's spaghetti sauce recipe. Stay safe
My husband was at work when i watched this video and the corn sounded perfect to go with the chicken I had already started in the crockpot He had the same reaction as your husband with the first bite. And I am also not allowed to cook corn any other way. Thanks for a great video!!!
I'm so glad to hear that!!!!!!
Definitely going to have to try all of these! That chicken rub looked so good.
Your husband appreciates your hard work
Looks delicious! I have never made homemade sauce but that looks so good! Gotta Try It!
Your husband never seem to hate what you cook lol! Is that just his way of saying "Happy wife Happy life" or is he really always enjoying everything 😉. I really love your videos and your awesome recipes you share so thank you and keep up the great work, God bless you and your family abundantly!!!
He really does love everything I make, but I promise it's because I don't just choose random recipes. I do a lot of research before ever trying one. I want to be sure we are going to like it!! I also answer this more in depth in the description box. :)
Aren’t leg quarters da bomb- so underrated? Great job as always 😊
That meatloaf looks amazing!! I'm obsessed with meatloaf and corn! Looks great
I'm gonna have to try making these meals. ❤
Give them a try and I hope you enjoy them! Thanks for watching! 😘
if you want your pasta to be even more delicious, cook the pasta almost to al dente, heat the sauce up in a pot, and ADD the pasta to the sauce pot. let it mingle for a minute or two, serve!
Yumm!! Everything looks really good!!!
Thank you! 😘
This is the ONLY MEATLOAF I make!! It’s a huge hit every time! I have it on in my recipe book as Ricks ( my Husbands) favorite!! Every morsel is devoured!!!!!
Yes!! So delish!

Mandy, I just cant tell you how much I LOVE your channel ! Not just the recipes but you, hubby and what would be out takes. Love to hear your laugh. You'll have to rename that corn dish to " life changing corn" 😉😏Have done the Pioneer Woman's meat loaf- it IS so moist and flavourful, I agree.
