    Quinoa is great to throw into other dishes to just add some nutrition. I throw 1/2 cup of quinoa into each pot of soup, chili, oatmeal, spaghetti, lasagna (tomato sauce), fried rice, stir fry, etc. It's amazing how easy it is to add that extra "umph" of nutrition. I also throw some Chia seeds into lots of baked goods, like muffins, cake, brownies, etc., for the same reason.

    Your channel is super fun and I'm impressed with your energy level. Side note on yeast proofing - you need to mix the salt into the water until completely dissolved before adding the yeast. The granules will kill any yeast they come in contact with. The same goes for dry ingredients going into yeast, you should thoroughly mix in the salt first to avoid killing some of your yeast

    Becky, I learned a tip from watching Mary's Nest on RUclips. Turn on the light in your oven and place your dough in their to rise. It works like magic. This way you can make your no knead bread in just a few hours. I use this technique for all of my yeast breads. My kitchen is really cold in the winter even though we have central heating. Hope this helps. Love, Debbie

    To ease into a weekly, menu plan begin with a 7 day (columns), 3 meal (3 rows) grid; I like a 4th short row at the bottom for comments, notes, and sometimes prep ahead todo's. Then concentrate on one meal of the day until you've got that one working for you meal chart wise; give yourself permission to fill in the other meals if its not a problem.
    To begin, plan in 2 or 3 day increments using the 7 day chart; give yourself permission to dot additional meals for during the week and even begin the next week's 7 day chart early. Or, plan 2 to 3 major cooking events seperated by blanks during the 7 day chart. Then fill in the blanks using the left overs, or making multiple meals from a single, from scratch cook. If dinner is the meal you're concentrating on, feel free to fill in the lunch cells with a dinners left overs. In your case, at the onset of the week decide which freezer meals you'll be eating on which day; put them on your meal plan chart. Then distribute the leftmovers in the dinner and lunch cells following; including any "reconstitutions" or use of the left overs as the base of another dish all together. When filling in about (before and after) a major cooking event, take a survey of the refrigerator and counter top perishables to consciously include them. Many, many people fill out thier menu plan every couple of days versus once per week or once per month.

Thank you for the wonderful inspiration and encouraging my creativity in the kitchen! Your channel has truly been a blessing to me, in more ways than one.

    - Black bean, mushroom and onion burgers
    - Tortilla chips, from store bought tortillas. They were awesome!
    - Carnitas, mushroom and tri-color refried bean burrito bowls (out of canned black beans)
    - Coconut chicken curry over rice (made my own rice for the first time)
    - Paleo brownies and banana nice cream
    - Hotdog Philly over salad
    - Quinoa noodle spaghetti
    - Pan fried bacon (I've always made it in the microwave before)

My tip I tell family is: son has approx 50 points (points = carbohydrates - fibre) for a meal so learn nutrition labels! Make sure the dinner isn’t 100 points when you add a dessert. As you start to understand how many carbs are in foods it helps you figure out healthy meals for diabetics! Lots of lean meats and non starch veggies so you can have a small dessert.

    A trick I use to keep hard boiled eggs better in the refrigerator is to put a couple of paper towels in the bottom and up the sides of the lidded container you use to store the cooked eggs. This method keeps the eggs fresher longer.

    another way to break up your pasta is to roll it up in a towel and bend where you want the pasta to break. It doesn't go flying everywhere and all you have to do is open the towel over your pan and pour it in. I'm guessing your rice pilaf dish wasn't too spicy for Josh? It looked wonderful!

    I get so excited every time you post! I think I'm addicted. 😂 In all seriousness, thank you for taking the time to make these videos, even though I'm sure it's difficult at times. I've learnt so much and I'm getting more excited about growing my own produce in the future to be more self sustainable and with cooking and preserving (at the moment I'm working on just keeping houseplants and herbs alive 😅). I'm doing the pantry challenge with my own rules where I look for the older stuff I've got in the pantry and try and include it in my cooking (or as a side) wherever possible to use it up. I'm trying to make 1 meal a week entirely with the things I have in the pantry. It's working well so far for us considering my husband and I live on 1 income. Excited to keep watching and read everyone's comments about how they're going with this pantry challenge. 😊

    "fresh" dill in the winter = process dill fronds and freeze. Use from frozen. I store mine in a ziploc bag. They have such little moisture that the texture is the same. I love it on salads as it tastes nearly summer fresh.
