I love how your channel is always like “just feed your family!” It doesn’t have to be complicated or fancy, just homemade
Yes and often times, simple and easy is also delicious!
I spend one whole day making freezer meals for my family once a month. I make 1 extra batch of each meal and post it on a local Facebook group for people looking for a break and a homemade meal! The most rewarding feeling ever is to share my cooking. I take along my 4 year old son and his face just lights up when we pass them out!.
This is so awesome. What a blessing for them. Praise God! 🙏
What an awesome thing to do!
That is such a kind thing to do ❤️❤️
You’re awesome!
That's such a blessing and GREAT you take your son along to build a great example
“ about 400° for… I don’t know until your house smells like bacon” Love it, my kind of cooking! 🥓😍
I saw an old recipe for cake that said to "bake until you smell cake" 😂😂😂
An actual quote from my grandmother when I asked her for a recipe once- “and then you add one handful of sugar.”
Me- “what?!? Whose handful? I have tiny hands!”
That’s the day she realized her adult granddaughter had the hands of a child instead of her giant hands.
I think one of the most amazing things about you is that you're frugal not only to benefit the lives of your family but for other families as well. I love freezer meal prep videos but knowing that you're donating some of the meals to people who need it makes it that much more special.
"So much better than using a spatula...like a PEASANT!" 🤣🤣🤣
that was the best part of the video lmao
lol this was my favorite part, by far! 🤣🤣
There is only three people in my household right now and I never thought about freezer meals. However I am rethinking this idea. I have a chronic pain problem and have a hard time even getting through the week most times, so instead of having my husband run to town for fast food I think this would work. Thank you for being such an inspiration
Always good to have some “ standby” meals you can just pull out when you don’t feel like cooking or can’t
Yes and it is saving you money and weight.
Christine: What do you say we make 30 freezer meals today?
Me: runs to get snacks- Ummm yes!! Let’s do it! And by let’s... I mean Christine does all the work and I watch and eat snacks 😂
😂😂😂
😂😂 why is this so true!
HAHAHAHA
I thought i was the only one who did that.
Vvvcpv. C v o
Pork rinds, cashews and water...lets do this!
Christine puts out a new video, and I stop what I'm doing and watch. Favorite RUclipsr. She's fun, informative and relatable. Also, clearly she has great taste in t-shirts
Wow, thank you!
Agree! She so awesome!!
Love that you donated the meals! You’re an amazing person, love the videos 😀.
Thank you!! 😊
Instead of doing a day of prep for a bunch of freezer meals, I’ve gotten into the habit of making a 2nd freezer meal along side with dinner. Example if I’m making pulled pork tonight for dinner I’ll make a second one but as a freezer meal, for later. There is 4 of us in my family and my boys are still young and don’t eat a whole portion. Plus my love hates leftovers. So often I can take a single recipe and cut it in half. One for now and one for later.
That’s what I do. I just dbl up.
Exactly what I do as well.
Back in the day before Covid, My church has a huge kitchen and we would have days where we all came and prepped together and made a bunch meals to give out like this. So fun and such a great way to serve your community.
I did our freezer meal prep for February on the weekend.
I made: chicken biryani, chicken tikka masala, pork and beans, meatball pasta bakes, pizza sauce, and breakfast casserole (four of each), and a stack of waffles.
You've inspired me so much. I bought an instant pot, and I love it. I no longer roast our Sunday lunch, it goes in the instant pot and I add the vegetables for 20 mins at the end.
My monthly food shop cost £80 this month
Love how you are sharing these with those who will so appreciate them....
Yes, it is very wonderful of you to do all of this and to feed the hungry.... That is the Gospel of Jesus!
It’s a lovely idea :) a great way to serve others 💖
I loved hearing that you donated to people struggling. That warmed my heart.
1:30…Baked Ziti. 3:49…Pulled Pork Sandwiches. 6:06…Beef Nacho Kits. 7:10…Veggie Stuffed Burrito. 8:47…Chicken Parm.9:02…Cheesy Chicken Taquitos. 10:53…Turkey Asian Meatballs. 13:37…Breakfast Casserole and Taco Kit. 15:19…Baked Potato Soup.
Love that you donated so many of these meals! It's only my husband and myself right now, so I don't see myself making all these, but then again, it would be great to have some on hand just to give to those who are sick/new moms/grieving families. I love taking meals to people. They all look really good. Thank you, great video!
Although these are good suggestions for meal prepping, they also use a LOT of aluminium and plastic. Maybe, if one does that kind of meal prepping very often, investing in a set of reusable containers might be advised to reduce the waste?
I think they make similar sizes in (oven- and freezer-proof) glass?
Admittedly, they are easier to give away in these bags/containers to people in need. Just a suggestion for those who think about using the program on the regular for their own family...
There are reusable freezer bags too! They are a thicker plastic I believe but most of the freezer bags used here are ones that you can only really get one or two MAYBE three uses out of before they rip.
That said, you don't need to throw away those aluminum tins. They are 100% reusable. I have an entire cabinet dedicated to those tins and greek yogurt, sour cream, etc plastic containers. There's no reason not to keep them imo. Especially the aluminum ones! :)
Some of us don't have an issue meal prepping and using aluminum pans. I've been doing it for years!
Agree. I cringe watching all of the plastic bags that I'm pretty sure are going to end up as trash.
I've noticed in many videos Frugal isn't always minimal ..
@@nseni31385 The issue is not using, the issue is the waste produced.
I finally tried using pitchers to hold my ziplocs tonight. LIFE CHANGING! You're brilliant! (Yes, we've reached the point where this is a highlight for me... how sad is that?)
That home cook moment when she discovers the egg shell, old memories of finding the walnut shell in your bite of the cake/cookie, etc.
Right before the corn came out I was yelling ...noooooo you didn't seal it!!! Too funny....thanks for the laugh. And definitely dill pickles.
She didn’t hear my shouting 😂😂 it’s so something I’d do!
Sweet pickles!! Not dill!!
I really like how you actually showed the cooked meal. Most freezer meal videos don't show the finished dish.
These videos are so calming to watch. Christine you've saved me from countless panic attacks and anxiety episodes. Watching you cook, shop and do everyday errands is relaxing. You're a real inspiration. Thank you for always sharing! ❤
Christine you are so funny to watch I've seen many people prepare large family freezer meals. But none of them make it so entertaining as you do lol. Nice job. Shirley
Me (former French teacher) It is "Je ne sais quoi"(kwah) as in "I don't know what?" Great video.
Me (actual French person) : exactly 😂😂
Yep, "je ne sais pas" means I dont know. Waves from Montreal! 😊
That's what it means!? I never thought about it. From context, I thought it meant like "a little something exta" or "a spicy little something"
@@ydoowj me too, now that I think about it!
For the potato soup, if you're willing to spend the extra money, instead of fresh potatoes, you can use Ore Ida's frozen cubed potatoes (usually includes peppers too) 😁
Can we all just take a moment to praise and thank this wonderful woman for being her. She truly is an extraordinary person with a heart of gold. If more people would lead by example from her this world we live in would truly be a better place. Your amazing and thankyou for for sharing your life an knowledge to everyone willing to listen.
Yes🙏❤🙏
You can.
Anytime I make potato soup or anything that I have to remove the peels, I slice the peels off wide and bake them till they are good and crispy and make loaded potato skins with melted cheese, sour cream, chives and bacon bits. Such a yummy snack.
I love this idea.
@@yvonnepalmquist8676 it is super yummy.
Good idea! I just don't peel potatoes because I don't want to waste the skins, but this sounds delicious!
This was FANTASTIC!! Thank you so much for ALL your hard work, sharing and caring. You are a blessing
seeing you donate out the meals to your community is so kind! that's super inspiring :)
Absolutely love this video and the ease it brings to everyday living. And, I think you are amazingly generous in supporting your community. Blessings be upon you.
How awesome that you have helped your friends and their families. I make extra at times for my next door neighbor that is a single mother. and she is always so greatful.
I love that you gave the majority of these away. You have such a kind heart 🥰 The baked potato soup looked delicious!
you're so kind to share your meals.
May God bless you all
Hi, since you're such a friends fan, I thought I'd share my story. A few years ang, my husband had a job interview in Santa Monica, and Iwas invited along. While there we went to LA and caught the last Warner Bro tour of the day. Since it was the last one, and there were only a few of us, we got to do things that they don't normally do, such as I sat in the front seat on the Ellen set. We were shown the friends coffee shop replica set, complete with the original couch that they used. Our group got to sit on the couch, with a pic taken of us holding the coffee cups :). Maybe that's not such a big deal to people from the States, since you guys can go there if you want to, but to me it was pretty cool at the time, since I was a huge friends fan also. TFS
That is a big deal for Americans!! Really cool!
I think it’s wonderful that you are giving away so many of the meals. 💕💕
Christine I bought green onions and you can regrow them just cut off the tops and put the bottom in water and just keep cutting them. I cut them up and store them in the freezer in a baggie I haven't bought any in over a year.
You have such a big heart! So wonderful that you think of others especially during such a hard time.
Video comes in perfect timing today's my grocery day and I needed ideas of what to make 😅🤷♀️
You are awesome for helping out people who are going through tough times.
Love how you give back to your community. I have a friend due in may with her second and she will definitely babe if it from this. I also think it’s a great idea not to worry about cook dinner for a whole month. Heck yea.
I went to middle school and high school with Gwen! We were cheerleaders together. She is seriously one of the nicest people you will ever meet in your life!
That's awesome! She is so kind!
Bless you for giving these meals to those in need. You are such a great role model.
I love how you gained 4K subs since you edited this video😂 you’re doing so well and I’m happy for you! Thanks for the ideas always
🎉
On pickles, I'm on Team YES!!!
Same! If it’s a pickle I’ll eat it.
Same!!! Give me ALLLLLL the pickles!!😁
Im so glad I found you! I live South of Pocatello. Its nice to find someone finding these deals with stores that are actually available on my area! And love you being realistic and not editing out things like the eggshells 😊
You are such a wonderful human. Thank you for giving back to those in need or going through hard times. So admirable.
I love your witty banter, movie references and general silliness. You are so enjoyable to watch and informative I appreciate it so much.
Your humor pairs extraordinarily with your kind heart
Thank you!
Love that you're helping your community with some freezer meals! It's fleshing to see this!
Love that you show the times things dont go perfect😊
I enjoy watching your cutting techniques. I find it pleasantly unique that you show the entire chopping process in one short clip. Thank you, for the video!
"So I Married an Axe Murderer". One of my favorites!
So many great ideas. I am vegetarian, but could adapt many! I started to tear up when you said you were giving these out. Lots have people have been food scarce or in need of help over the last year. Thank-you for your kindness. 💞
We made these while my husband was away. My kids have loved everything so far and they are all really picky
I haven't done freezer meals in a few years. I'm inspired to do it again.
Sharing your meals with others is a blessing for you and those families!
Love seeing freezer crockpot meals. Thank you so much!
I love that you’re real!! The fact that you are donating the meals makes me love you even more!!!
So nice that you are sharing with your community! Good job!
You have made a horrible medical news day into i am so happy i found this person with her wisdom and sense of humor brought me back from the brink. May God bless.
What a great idea to share meals with your community. I love this!❤
Great video, great looking meals and so generous of you sharing with folks that have a need💕
I use a cookie type scoop to make it less messy and more uniform when making any kind of meatball
Thank you for being so kind and loving to others! HUG What a great idea!
You use one this meal prep absolutely makes my heart happy 😊
I like the Freezer Meal videos you make that include all the full recipes. Please do more of those! Thank you! 💕
I also use a little water to get out *all* the sauce!
Great video and so kind to re-gift your meals.
I love that you are making a lot of people happy by gifting these--good job!
I think that is so wonderful that you're sharing the meals!💖💖
I love the silicone rings, especially since we're all home all the time and I'm cooking so much more. They're so comfortable!
Good job! Sharing is so kind! Freezer meals are great to have on hand if you need to bring to someone in need. I always bring meals to new or struggling moms or neighbors.
I love unwinding with Christine cooking videos! Also, there's been so much content lately. It's great!
I am such a fan of this channel and truly appreciate your loving heart.
I LOVE that you leave the bloopers in your video. Thank you for keeping it real!
That is soo awesome of you to share the love in the form of a good meal to all the people who will appreciate it 😍💯👏
Love your short, sweet and to the point fun videos with a side of humor!! Great meal ideas!! Wish i was as organized but we def shop alike!!!
I love that you are sharing with your community and friends. We all go thru peaks and troughs and nice to know that some people still about giving. Hello from Aust! Love your channel
You're so likeable and have such a lovely family, Christine. 😊Thanks for these awesome recipe ideas!
Thank you for sharing the love with delicious meals!🥰🥰❤️
Cooking for others is so kind
I love your heart and how you care about your community
Thanks for this! For the first time in 14 years I am working full time. It’s still from home, but 8-10 hours a day is a lot to try to have dinner on the table for a family of 6. I just bought the freezer pack and will make it this weekend!
What a doll. I am sure all are thankful.
This Eating Together meal plan kit.. sooo getting that.. thank you!!! I normally spend about 2 hrs on the grocery list 2x a month.. picking out meals.. listing ingredients.. checking those against what i have.. then figuring out how much its all going to cost.. this will save me soo much time. very grateful to you for posting this.
thanks for the recommend. i'm planning on saving on meals, cooking in, and eating healthier in march!
You are seriously the sweetest, and I wish you were my neighbor! Love your videos, and that you show everyone kindness still exist.
Yummy!! I'm moving to your neighborhood. You are such a good neighbor!! God bless you for all you do!
Love your videos! Wanted to let you know you I just recently found out the secret to freezing potatoes. If you blanch them and then freeze them, they won’t turn brown. For soup you could freeze them all together but if you want to make home fries or something, freeze single layer on a cookie sheet and then transfer to a freezer bag.
I love that you gave these dishes away! Amazing!
I'm team sweet pickles all the way. And I really think it's super sweet of you to share your meals with those in need 👏🏾🖤
I have love this one! I don't know where I would store 30 meals and I have 3 freezers!! Great video!
Never been this early , i’m a fan of your clearance grocery hAuls
You are an amazing lift in the day and a great inspiration of service and love. Your meals rock.
Thank you so much!
I really enjoy watching you make your freezer meals because you also show what the meals look like after you actually made them. Also, thanks for the info on the silicone wedding rings.
U an your family are so giving makes me happy to live
You and Dave are so awesome to help your community! God bless you both 💖🤗. I wish there more people you y’all in the world
I love that you consistently try to give back to your community :) its inspiring! Much love from Syracuse, NY!
These look really good! Plus more healthy than most freezer meals I’ve seen. I saw the smiley spoon! 😊 so sweet to share with others! ❤️
Yes ..love the meat chopster. We first saw it on Six Sisters and ordered one but I also scooped up a bunch at the Dollar Tree and gifted to my family and friends.
GREAT job for you generous giving of the meals....as well as sticking and feeding your own family.
Keep up the great work.
That is very nice of you Christine !
