FYI (trying to be helpful and not a Karen but) You should not try storing open metal cans in the refrigerator, because the iron and the tin can seep into the foods and taint the flavour and in some cases cause negative health effects. Keeping open cans in the fridge is especially dangerous if the food is quite acidic, such as fruit and tomatoes. ❤️ just be careful with that :)
Agree it makes them taste like tin.
I was thinking the exact same thing... Was always told that growing up....
Delicious meals though!! Some fantastic ideas 😊 thank you 😊
Thanks for the tip!
It can cause botulism!! Please please don’t do this! Just get little plastic containers.
Welcome back!!! Please don't worry about how you look! You look just fine!!! Real life is infinitely preferable to pretense!!! We tune in to your channel for what you show, not how you look. Not that there is anything wrong with how you look! I'll take substance over symbolism any day!!! I've been trying to empty my cabinets of all of the foodstuffs I have left in them so I don't find stuff in them from 20 years ago like I did the first time I reorganized them! Almost there! Nearly no canned goods or leftover pasta! Love banana bread!!! I may try TJ's mix but I do make a good recipe from scratch and make sandwiches of them. Banana frosting and sliced bananas between two slices about as thick as a slice of bread. Mmmmmm...! As always my absolute very very best to you and yours!!!! Take care!
Thanks for your awesome comment and for tuning in!
It’s so funny, I would have said the same thing in my messy bun and tshirt if I did this on RUclips but I always think you look great!
It seems the pretty ones complain how they look. YOUR OK. YOUR VERY PRETTY. NOT LYING, your very attractive.
Great tips! My family is vegetarian but can still find so much inspiration in this video. Thank you!
Everyone everywhere is feeling the effects of inflation. Food gas heating oil. It's bringing us all back to to basics and what's really important. Thanks for sharing with us Abby. We all appreciate what you do. I know we will all get through this together. God bless.
Truth! Thanks for your comment Donna.
My kids love garlic bread pizzas. Any extra sauce usually gets put into a sandwich or quart sized zippy bag & put in the freezer. Lay it as flat as you can get it so it thaws out quicker.
Pasta sauce is so versatile - agreed!
You being real is really appreciated. Shows you're a strong person and truly care about the really important things in life like family, friends, etc.
Thank you Tammy!
I love shelf cooking! It’s fun to see the creative meals people come up with. Great video! Now I’m inspired to see whats in my pantry 😁
Hope you enjoy!
You look great your little popsicle helper is awesome.
I think so too!
My freezer is stuffed right now, and I need to use things up too. I always love seeing what you make!
Thanks for tuning in Robin!
Wow I love this videos! It’s so important to try to finish everything you stock at home. Thanks for the inspiration! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
You are so welcome! You got this :)
I so needed this! So excited to watch! I have so much food in my pantry and can never think of what to use it for. Yes, Abby!!!
So glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing! We enjoy easy pantry meals around here!
Can't beat 'em!
🥰 looked yummy! Gave me some inspiration for our shelf cooking week!
These are my favorite videos that you film! So happy to see this here today.
Glad you like them!
I love watching your videos and getting inspiration and new ideas! Thank you some much 😉❤️
You are so welcome!
Exactly what I needed this week! It’s Spring Break so I’m off work and in dire need of a pantry clean out! Thanks for the motivation!
You got this!
They all looked so good. I made sour cream chicken enchiladas last week but I put green enchilada sauce on top! I make them different every time depending on what I have on hand!
That sounds really yummy!
I've missed you. 💜💜 Girl please you look just fine. Everything looked so delicious! 😌
Love the one handed mama stir. ❤
Haha, thank you! It's a real power move ;)
I watch you from Ontario Canada and just want to say thankyou, your amazing! God bless you and your precious family 💗
Thanks for tuning in, Bella!
Good seeing you again. Thanks for your great videos. Great videos.
Thanks for watching!
Personally, at the moment, I wouldn’t even think of cleaning out my pantry.. there’s no guarantee of what (or IF) you can find when you go to the store right now 🥴 shelf stable products are staying on-hand! Thanks for the video tho 🥰
Thanks for watching and commenting Tracie!
Love the pizza and Texas toast . . . the best of both worlds! Will be putting hamburger on top of that as well. Love everything else Abby! Thank You! Have a great week dear!👍😋💛
Can't beat that combo! Thanks for watching Joe!
The meals look delicious TFS!
Glad you enjoyed, Elaine!
Thank you for sharing these meals. I seriously need to do a pantry clear out soon.
You are so welcome!
These meals look delicious and simple. Thanks for the info.
Glad you like them!
You've saved me many times on dinner ideas! I have a silly one to share since your kiddos are little, I used to grab two boxes of Mac n Cheese and a few hot dogs or cheddar brauts,slice them up and mix them in with the cooked mac n cheese. We called it "Butthole Casserole". My kids used to avoid the ends of hotdogs because they said they looked like buttholes. We still laugh about that one. Lol 😆
Welcome back thank you for the video stay safe and God bless sending you lots of love & blessings🙏❤😎
Thank you! You too!
Very delicious meals 😋 as always ❤️
Thank you 😋
This is my favorite type of video! I’m doing the same thing currently and it helps to see your creativity!
Yay! Thank you!
For anyone trying to make the banana bread a little healthier, the bananas can actually replace the oil in most baked good recipes (or applesauce or pumpkin puree 1:1 ratio)! Looks great
It’s so good to see you back.
Thank you!!
I love these videos! They are may fav!
Love to hear that! Thanks Liz
I just found your channel and I now make a shopping list and am excited to save some money! I’m new at living on my own and my boyfriend and I are trying to save as much as possible! Love the videos !!!
You look Pretty.…Naturally!!😍 Thanks for sharing some Yummy Simple meal ideas!😋 ALWAYS Enjoy your videos!❤️
Thank you so much 🤗
I love how real you are ❤❤❤❤
Thanks Ashley!!
Looks great.
Being creative with these crazy grocery prices!! Me too!!
Right?! We're all in the same boat!
Thanks for sharing this video..Hope you have a great week..💕
Thank you! You too!
You are lovely. Thank you for the ideas!
Glad you like them!
such great ideas! Just FYI -- it's perfectly okay to store food in the can in the fridge -- even the USDA says so. I do it quite often and just throw a silicone lid on it. I always use in a day or two, however. I need to do a full pantry purge -- youve inspired me. :)
Thanks for all the great ideas. What mom hasn't started dinner with her jacket on after a busy day! 😂
Right?! Thanks for watching Kelly!
Thanks for the inspiration& laughs today❤ No food inspiration& time change here😢feeling down& gloomy.
I laughed so hard at Stella yelling from the chair& how you pushed through😂😂😂!!! Seems like just yesterday you posted your hospital delivery video.
I have all the fixings for the Texas Toast Pizza down to pepperoni& was not thinking😭 I have NOT done those in so long??? It takes me back to Dennys restaurant here in Virginia. They did Texas Toast with the marinara sauce filled with mozzarella sticks. Trust me its amazing& I have those in the freezer too😃Blessings to you& the family❤
Thanks for your comment Sandy!
I love videos like this Abby! Thanks for sharing your ideas. I need to do the same. I’m probably going to make a video like this soon.
We love a good pantry clean out! :)
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 definitely! Best way to save money 😊
You are beautiful and you made some yummy looking food. My granddaughter is 2 and when my daughter is trying to cook she ends up having to hold her sometimes when she is cooking. Before you know it your babies will all be grown up! Your family is precious😊
So true. I try to enjoy it when they're with me in the kitchen!
Great video Abby! And you look beautiful as always! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!
You never look bad!!
Maximum utilisation of store cupboard/frozen/leftovers,Food 🔥🔥🔥🙌
My dear,you are beautiful,you are amazing. Be assured yourself that you are xx
Inflation is beyond cost of living now and it’s very,very scary and worrying. We are expecting another price hike here in the uk.
Excellent video of cooking meals and demonstration… loved it.
Tc .
Thank you so much Glenda! 😊
Omg your daughters cute curls in the beginning ☺️ she’s so adorable.
Agree!😍😍
Thank you!! 😊
What I love about you and your channel is how real and relatable you are! Thank you for that! Great meals! I really want to try the sausage/sauce skillet! Looks so good! Was that a smoked sausage or a kielbasa?
Smoked or Kielbasa would work great!
Over 20 years ago I had kielbasa I needed to use up. I cut it into coin shape and added BBQ sauce and ranch dressing while cooking it in a skillet. Still one of our go to meals with some kind of rice and veggies. Watching you cook your reminded me of this.
Uhhhh so delicious recipe and so cute baby yellow 😍😍 and pretty hair
Many many thanks
I fimd your channel very helpful! I love to cook but i have the problem that i very often overcomplicate things which leads to spending way too much on food! You beautifully show how you can make delicious foods in a easy way using basic ingredients and i highly appreciate that! I often do vegetarian versions of your dishes as i do not eat meat and i only prepare meat from time to time for my husband and daughter. Thank you so much Abby♥️
Happy to help! Thanks for watching Laura. Love how creative you've been!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey welcome back
We missed you
Glad to be back, Diane!
I didn’t want this video to end
Awh, thanks Bonnie!
Yes, we call it hillbilly cooking where we live, lol. We live a ways out of town and so, if we go to make a certain meal and don't have the exact ingredients, we just use what we have and it's almost always good! Btw, u look fine, that's real life!
Love that! And thank you :)
Yummy 😋
😋
)over the video but think I love t-shirt more. We are retiring to that area soon.
:) That's awesome!
yummy!!!
😋
Great job using stuff up. That is what I need to be doing too. Inflation is killing all of us.
Time to dig into the pantry!
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 . Yes and my 2 freezers!
Loving these meals! What kind of bread mix was it you made with the can of beer n cheese?
It's Trader Joe's beer bread! Super easy and yummy
Thank you so much for sharing your budget friendly recipe. With the cost of everything going up lately this will be helpful to a lot of people. Myself included. I make cooking videos too and appreciate learning ways to make cooking more budget friendly from you. I hope we can learn more from each other.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Trader Joe’s is quite pricey; do you have an Aldi? Packaged meals costs a lot more than buying veggies and meat separately.
Way to work with what you had to make dinners. 😊
Thank you 😋
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the pizza hack.
Hope you enjoy!
The bread that you made, will that work with any dry bread mix? It looked so good!
I think so! Give it a shot!
Nosy question what does your husband do he seems to be gone alot?
Honey, on the last dish with the stir fry veggies, which chili-fil-a sauce did you use? It went by too fast to see the flavor., thanks
@ Lisa she used Polynesian sauce for the last recipe if you didn't catch it..
@@heatherfortna8466 thanks
Your welcome 👍
Yes, the polynesian sauce!
Everything looks good. Are you still doing WW and do you like the new plan?
I am still on WW, yes! It's on and off some weeks, lol, but the new plan has been an adjustment for sure.
Who is the music in your video?
On a totally unrelated note… you have great eyebrows!
You should do a day in the life
I'll definitely add that back in the rotation soon!
Girl!!….You don’t look horrible!!!
Thanks Cheryl!
Are you still doing Weight Watchers? How is it going!: :) Love your videos!
What football team does Ur hubby play 4?
I'd kill to have my 8 year old to eat anything with flavour like those amazing looking enchiladas, how did you get your kids to eat a tiny bit spicy food
Hi. Been worried about you. Hope all is well.
All is well! Just busy :)
Good video. Meals are fast and easy. They look good to eat! I dont know if you know but someone left an inappropriate response. It left a web site about 18 year olds. You might want to remove it. It might have been your very first comment on this video. What's wrong with some people!
When you see those you can click report and RUclips will remove anything inappropriately
I reported it! Thanks for the tip Kathy. I do my best to moderate the comment section but yes, definitely if you see anything inappropriate please help me out and report it!
Who taught you how to cook?
My mom is a great cook! And I've done a lot of experimenting on my own :)
Hello
Hello there!
You are very naturally beautiful. Missed you very much
Thanks Pam!
You look fine natural
Love Biden 😂 need to move to a red state... because this is nuts.
