One thing about corn tortillas, the work better warm so microwave them for 30 seconds to turn them soft first then they’ll be much easier to fold and stay down!
I agree. I make baked tacos several times a month - another thing I do - I place an empty cookie sheet over the folded tacos - helps with browning and keeping them flat. The potatoes looked fabulous!
Kirsten, my wife and i love your videos, please do a kitchen tour! Love from ireland
Thank y’all!!
When I do homemade taco seasoning I stir in a teaspoon or two of arrow root (you can also use cornstarch) into 1/4 cup water and pour it over the meat once it's mostly done and let it cook and thicken for minute or two. Store bought usually has a thickener in it and you usually add water to it. That's why it's saucy.
Thank you for the tip!
Yummy meals, Kristin. Will be making the oven fried chicken very soon! Take good care, you're so precious to so many!
Thank you so much! ❤️
I love your videos. My EX would tell me he wanted steamed veggies, baked chicken breast and white rice. If I deviated, …,whew. So I enjoy these vids so I can now be creative
Thank you! I’m glad you’re free to be creative ❤️
OMG same. I would literally cry myself to sleep some nights after trying something I could have sworn he would like. Nope. Hated it. So now I can cook WHATEVER I want!!!
My ex too. He hated almost everything. He would only eat hamburgers with nothing on them and fries, every night! I am a good cook so this drove me crazy. Note we are both saying EX!
👏❤
I can't date a picky eater. Lol it's a big deal! I love to cook and be creative. Makes sense I'd end up with a chef. Lol
As a fellow southerner I love that your bacon was done done! 😊
My husband wants wiggly bacon! 🤢🤢
@@mslisadianemorse First of all, eww, what’s wrong with him? J/k 😂 But in the south saying something is “done done” means it’s already done. Like somebody can be done gone.
I am ready for a Kristin cookbook!!! Another thought is a lunch video for you everyday! Thank you for what you do!!!
I’d love to one day! Thank you!!
I'm going to try the Fried Chicken it looks so yummy and much easier than actually frying it
One thing I do is mix sour cream and salsa together and layer that on the tortillas first, it helps it to stick and ups the flavor big time. I used that for chicken quesadillas too. So yummy 😋🤤
These are honestly my favorite what's for dinner videos!! Especially the lunch box videos those are my absolute favorite!!! Can't wait for the next one😊
❤️❤️❤️
Perfect timing, watching as I finish up my meal plan for the next few weeks.
❤️❤️
I just love your videos! My hubby and I are really committing to meal prep for the week. What a game changer! We grocery shop, have exactly what we need, and we don't scramble after work trying to figure out what to make. I get lots if inspiration from your meals. Thank you!
Thank you so much!! I love planning ahead, it’s very helpful!
When you use the Taco Seasoning you have to add some water like 1/2 cup and simmer for a few minutes to not make the taco mixture to dry.
Thaw in cold water it works better :)
Something I have recently learned
Hey there sweetie I saw someone somewhere do your tortillas the way you did but put the cheese down first. Then meat the cheeses wi stick together!!!! Tic Tok I think is where I saw the lady do just that!!!! Hope it helps you out or do them in the cast iron skillet!!!!!
Love the fried chicken recipe! I’ve been looking for more cast iron recipes for my new set so this video was perfect timing!
And those fiesta potatoes! 🤤
Such a great variety of dishes! I always seem to struggle with my taco shells, no matter what size, no matter corn or flour. Very relatable. Enjoy your Easter 🐣 🙏 ✝️
Thank you so much, you too!
I reccomend heating the corn tortillas in a small amount of oil for 15 seconds on each side and that will keep them from falling apart. Then if baking them I would have filled them and folded them over and pot another cookie sheet on top to help crisp both sides at once and keep them closed too. If corn tortillas aren't warmed enough they are a pain!!!
Appreciate all your videos! ❤ These all looked delicious!
Thank you!! 💕
Love your meal ideas!! Everything looks delicious!! 😊
Thank you!!
That thawclaw is so neat! I might have to get one!
We mad the cream cheese sausage pasta today and it’s wonderful!! Love your videos and the “down home” nature of your content ❤
I’m so happy you liked it! & thank you so so much! 💕
Thank you for your videos. I get so many great meal ideas. Keep them coming!!
I’m so glad, thank you!!
I think what’s missing from your homeade taco seasoning is water! You add water to packaged taco seasoning 😊
I added a 1/4 cup but it definitely needed more!
I love that you try and share such a variety of things!
❤️❤️
Use a toothpick to hold tortillas shut. I do a baked taco and I stand mine up and wedge them in the baking pan as I make them, much less messy than laying them down.
Loved these recipes! You always have some delicious recipes! Thanks for sharing these recipes!
Thank you!!
Love ya, Kristin! Hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend

LOL we are in this together! So so true!
Meal planning is so difficult. I have very picky eaters. Your videos are helpful.
Get you a spray bottle and put your oil in it to spray your chicken legs or anything I use that in stead of cooking spray I love being able to just mist anything lightly
Awesome recipes, thanks for sharing 👍❤️👍❤️👍
Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing these recipes with us Kristin! I use a lot of your recipes, but I cut them down enough for 2 adults, since we're empty nesters! Have a good day!
Thank you!!
My husband loves breakfast burritos and I think those fiesta potatoes would be perfect for a burrito filling.
Yes!!
And now I’m craving chicken Alfredo tortellini soup! 😅

Yet again, another winner! PS Kristin, quick put on QVC! Blackstone on sale. You should be a rep because I'm about to buy one ;)
Thank you! I love my BlackStone!
Hi5^ on the Great Value velveeta. It just tastes cheesey, rather than the distinct velveeta flavor. I use it for so many things and greatly prefer it. Also Rico's Nacho Cheese Sauce! Goodness gracious that stuff is amazing! Thanks for another great inspirational video, Kristen!
Love your videos ❤️😀
Thank you!!
Try kinders Taco blend it’s delicious!
Shared ya on my FB. Love your cookin!
Thank you!! ❤️
Nice Video!
Thank you!!
cool
You should do Montreal chicken seasoning. Better for chicken but the steak is amazing on a burger.
Maybe those steeet taco shells would work - it’s also hard not to overfill a 🌮 😂❤
I watch to get ideals but then mostly I miss my Moms KY accent and your is so much like hers!!!!
Aww! ❤️
❤
😊
If you put the cheese on the tortilla first it might help stick it to the meat? Just an idea. I like the idea of being able to make multiples on a sheet tray.
Where did you get your Silicone Utensils ? Been looking for a good and sturdy set 😊
Amazon!
Your family eats such a small amount. My husband and all 3 of my children as well as myself eat at least 2 hamburgers each and when the boys became teenagers they ate 3. With the chicken legs I can eat 4 or 5 by myself as well as the kids could too with sides. I’m glad that my children are all grown because I would hate to see my grocery bill with the prices today. We are not really big people although both of the boys are over 6’ and my daughter is 5’11”. But no one has a weight problem but we all have big appetites but so does the rest of the family. My sister in law cooks a lot of food for each meal even though it’s only 3 of them at home but my nephew eats a lot. He’s 6’ 9” but only weighs 175lbs. but he eats huge amounts about every 3-4 hours.
Me being a vegetarian, watches your videos on repeat 🔁🌻🌻🤣
❤️❤️
You could totally microwave a stack of tortillas wrapped in a damp paper towel to prep before you make you tacos.
What nacho cheese do you use?? 😅
It's called Rico's and it's in the red can. I find it at Walmart. It's not the cheap plastic nacho cheese sauce, it's actually cheese and creamy and the flavor is as good as if you had the best nacho cheese sauce recipe only no extra work. It's not really spicy, I add jalapenos for that. Not Kristen but hope that helps :)
Rico’s!
too late now but with those little tacos, you should of put a tooth pick in them to make them stay folded
Did you ever have Covid? I have heard some say after that they don't like fries anymore.
Yes, interesting!
