    Mike, I started following your channel a little over 2 months ago and I now have joy and motivation in cooking. I was getting lazy and running out of ideas. There are 3-4 recipes I circulated through during the week and started making the snack options you gave in an older video. You don’t over complicate things and keep it simple. Love your channel and appreciate what you bring to the people. Thanks man!

I’m an experienced home cook, but you’ve gotten me really excited to prep sauces, make pickled veggies, make kombucha again (my scoby is just chilling in my fridge because I was tired drinking the same green tea/black tea with no other flavors), get serious about gardening, etc. You obviously put a lot of work and thought behind your videos and it’s much appreciated. I really like your approach to cooking and how it’s centered around health. You’ve given me a ton of ideas and great tips! Keep the great content coming!

    Pro Home Kooks and fellow amateurs. A great time saver, whenever you make cookie dough make extra. Form and freeze the extras and whenever you want some bake or air fry (a bit of extra time from frozen) they can bake while you do other things so the time approaches zero as you multitask. This is also how I make sure I have lots of different cookies for parties or holidays. Hope someone finds this useful ...Jim Mexico

    I love the idea of the farro bowl. Kind of like Meditteranean stir fry. Another great thing you could do in about 10 minutes is a farro salad. Use farro as the base and just add anything else you want (any fruit, tomatoes, squash, nuts, asparagus, cheese, kale, radicchio, arugula, olives, bell peppers, onions, etc.) and toss it with your favorite vinaigrette or light dressing. Much more filling than a lettuce-based salad!

    I decided recently to start meal prepping and I managed to get a pretty nice rice bowl recipe down in just about 40 minutes. Makes five of my plastic lunch tubs, so on a Sunday I always make sure to do it towards the evening when I'm nice and chilled out and then I've got lunch throughout the week with no worries. If you've got something like an hour a week to cook, I highly recommend giving meal prepping a go. It's a good alternative to quick 10-15 minute recipes a day.

    • @ProHomeCooks
      @ProHomeCooks  5 місяців тому +5
