WEEKLY Meal Prep for OUR FAMiLY of 10 😉

- So here is my weekly meal prep for our family plus friends. Like I said in the video, my son Gideon said that they needed more food that the bento boxes weren't enough and so I decided to make their favorite grilled, chicken salad sandwiches and then I made homemade Cheez-Its, which were a big hit last time I made them.
The chicken salad recipe is super easy:
4 to 8 pounds of grilled chicken breast, cut into chunks Red grapes cut in half
One stock of celery, cutting the small pieces 3 cups of mayo
2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard
Half a tablespoon of salt
Half a tablespoon of pepper
So you can adjust these measurements to what you like, you can add some celery seed if you'd like or deal that would be really good.
There's a lot of different ways to make chicken salad, but sometimes it's nice just to have it just simple and plain without all the extras.
You can even add eggs if you'd like to make an egg salad that would be really good
Homemade Cheez-It recipe :
One cup of all purpose, flour
One cup of shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup of butter, cold, cubed
2 to 3 tablespoons of cold milk
Directions:
Add all your dry ingredients together and pulse in a food processor till it’s nice and crumbly then add your butter continue to pulse until mixed well. Then add your cold milk and pulse until it starts to form a little bit of a dough ball. 
Make sure when you roll them out you roll them out super super thin then cutting the squares put a hole into each square sprinkle with some more salt and you’re gonna bake those at 350 to 75° for about 10 to 12 minutes
If you’d like to add different kinds of cheeses or spices you can, you can add some garlic powder and onion powder or use Parmesan cheese or mozzarella cheese instead. The possibilities are endless. You can do whatever you’d like with it. Try adding a dash of red pepper flakes that’s really really good

I love watching your videos. Please never change who you are and how you care for your family.
Thank you so much!
Yum! Can you imagine how expensive these lunches would be from a restaurant?! Great job! Perfect summer lunch 😋
If you use 2 ceramic plates you can cut grape and cherry tomatoes much faster. Turn one over, put the tomatoes or grape in the circle on the plate bottom, put the other plate on top with the bottom down and using a long knife, holding top plate down, slice through all at once. I enjoyed your video. Thank you.
What a beautiful life you have made❤
Her saying she’s going to make homemade vanilla wafers as I sit here eating a box of Dollar Tree vanilla wafers 🤦♀️.
I made the decision to make my own Mayonnaise and it took a bit to get it to a flavor we liked but I’m saving penny by penny.
Yum, that lunch looks so delicious.
So good!
I love those containers. My daughter is always watching animals for people, designing costumes for a theater show, working in the costume shop , or has rehearsal for a show (usually all at the same time) at her college. My daughter is always so busy that she would just grab fast food which is not healthy. I got a lot of different kinds of those and made her a lunch or put leftovers in them for her dinner. She could just grab one when she gets home or take one with her. She loves it.
Awesome!
More canning videos please! I learned SOOO much from your Rhubarb and strawberry jam video!
I agree. Many people are going back to home canning in an effort to save on groceries. More food preservation content would be greatly appreciated. 👍
Oh ok!
I love you and your efforts to make UNPOLLUTED meals, snack crackers, dinner and desserts for your family😊😊
Thanks 🥰
I hope your kids appreciate everything you do for them. Because you go above and beyond the call of duty.
I was born in Albion, Michigan and raised in Homer Michigan. One of my favorite things to make with my dad and gran was bologna salad. You ground ring bologna, pickles and onion in a meat grinder. You could even freezer the base mixture. I now live in California and can't get ring bologna or pickled bologna out here.
I live in Rhode Island, and I don't even what a Bologna salad is.. Lol no clue
Yum! It's a family favorite.
Heather you inspired me to make homemade breakfast sandwiches for my daughter. Thank you it was so much better for her and she is really enjoying them
That is awesome!
You are such a good Mama❤ the lunches look delicious😊 I love the bowls❤ and I love Cheez-Its and chicken salad😊
Thank you so much 🤗
Those sandwiches look sooooo good!!!
Looks great! Chicken and grape salad is one of my favorites. May want to put the bun top in the second compartment when filling. Saves time trying to match them up later.
The chicken salad sandwiches look so yummy. Another sandwich idea is to add tuna to your egg salad. Use good wild caught tuna drained well. Add some salt, pepper, celery seed or fresh celery and green onion. My kids love these sandwiches and gobble them up.
Yum to your chicken salad. I do that recipe and add water chestnuts and dried cranberries. So yummy!
One of the greatest pieces of advice I get: put another parchment paper on the top of your dough before rolling it. Saves so much time and energy. Also, thank you so much for your videos, I'm a mother of three little boys that are good eaters, and aspire to a bigger family ! Love to see how you thrive through this ! Love and blessings from France 💕🇫🇷
Thanks for the info!
You’re the best 💚
Yum I love chicken salad. 😊
Love the lunch choice💕
Yummy what a great lunch. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing 😊💜
Mama Bell....(( Heather Bell ))
You Are Amazing....😊
We DO NOT MIND. How many sooooo are in a sentence...
Honey...You are Way to hard on yourself....❤❤❤❤
I thank you for sharing your Family and Cooking with US....
We Love ya....
Pat on the Back...for being so Awesome...
Congratulations!!! To you Heather bell!!! For your CookBook!! 🎉 l Love ❤️ your cooking is Amazing!!! it couldn't happen to a Better person your Bellissimo!!!
I also add chopped apples in my chicken salad
Good afternoon! 🌻👍
Yes, I add purple grapes, Kewpie mayo, dill weed, purple onions, salt, walnuts, and I grill my chicken using adobo seasoning. DELISH on sub rolls! I sometimes eat the chicken salad over greens!
I'm sure you have heard this a zillion times but " What a terrific Mom you are"!!! Bless you. ♡ If it is available where you are try Dukes Mayonnaise, I find it very good.
You’re such a good momma!
I could not live without my Helmans bc you are absolutely right, it’s just a matter of getting your tastebuds accustomed to new tastes. Most of the healthier mayo I didn’t like, but Chosen Foods mayo that uses avocado oil instead is the tastiest one I’ve found so far.
Looks like we're going to have chicken salad sandwiches for lunch. Thanks for the idea, especially on these hot 🔥🔥🔥 days
Gonna need a lot of fridge space for all those trays
What a fantastic idea for lunches ❤
when you said Gideon needed "more" I had to put a face to the name....oh my he really looks like your hubby !! I remember when my boys were young, they sure could eat LOL
Right?! I noticed that recently too!! Like and Gideon are carbon copies!!! Lol
I don't know if anyone has told you, but with that bun and fringes, you look like tinker bell 😍
Everything looks very delicious
I have been wanting to make homemade cheeze it's. I'd trust your recipe. Going to have to try it with some sharp cheddar. ❤
❤ that chicken salad looks yummy
So so so ❤😂 I use that word alot myself 😅 chicken salad 🥗 looks yummy good job! 😋
It looks massive Ur a great mom and chases snack 🥨 love from Dublin Ireland Barbara ❤
Awesome family 🎉🎉🎉
I like to watch you cook your 4th of July was nice video
Looks fantastic!!😋
Heather you look amazing girl! I can tell you've been working out and losing weight.
We make a delicious salmon salad. 3 oz canned or cooked salmon, flaked. 1/4 cup grapes sliced in half, 1 tablespoon each sliced almonds, mayo and mango chutney. Salt and pepper to taste. It sounds weird but is so good. We serve it on a bed of greens, but it would be great as a sandwich
I like the cheezits dough, but I thought hmmm wouldn’t that be a nice dinner pie crust?. You would probably not roll it as thin, and probably blind bake it. Maybe a chicken pot pie or cheeseburger pie..
Thanks for sharing so many family recipes. Keeps up the good work. From another viewer in MI👍🏾
Im like u. Kids older but i still pack them lunch:) just cause i luv to do that:)
They say coconut oil is one of the unhealthiest oils to use, and to switch to avocado oil. It’s also high smoke point. I made the switch to avocado last year with EVOO in the mix as well and it’s been amazing! It also helps lower cholesterol, unlike coconut which raises it.
I think she knows what’s best for her family.
U should do a buffalo chicken salad…. It’s 10/10 chefs kiss good lol
thanks for the lunch momma
Chicken salad sandwich is my favorite sandwich. You make them with the same ingredients as me but I don't put salt in mine so I usegarlicand onion powder.🎉🎉❤😊
The food you make for your family is great! However, they all seem to be old enough to be making their own school lunches. Or at least pitch in and give you a habd. As I am sure there is tons of other stuff you have to do.
You need to watch more videos. The kids work all over the farm when they are not in school. 🙄
I have seen many Videos, where the kids are helping with the cooking
God bless, do u add fruit on the side? They do work hard for sure. Fantastic family
Hello from Lexington KY
If you don't like or agree with what she does for her family, just keep it to yourself. There is already too much negativity in the world.
I wish you would do a show on where you get you spoon that attaches to the side of your pot. Where you got your silver bowls( pampered chef?). Little glass one cup measurement cup (pampered Cher?). That knife you have said the name but I have not caught it yet! Where did you get your cast iron bake pans? I love those. Please help a fellow cook from Louisiana. Yvette Tullos
Have you ever thought of using chopped walnuts into your homemade chicken salad, my grandmother God rest her soul used to make it that way and it was awesome.
Hello my sister in Christ
Do you’re cheese it’s get soggy from being refrigerated overnight?
BTW, have you ever tried Pretzel Buns? Whole foods sell them and they are amazing, makes sandwiches taste fantastic.
I love them!
You should cook outside more, so beautiful! 🌿🌳🌷
Rotisserie chicken makes the best chicken salad. I am sure grilled would be good too.
And they are cheaper too, I don't need to use electricity to cook a chicken!
Mix chicken salad after each fruit &
vegetable
❤ u can bring me some lol
I like chicken salad but not w/ all those extra ingredients. Just a bit of diced onion, s & p and a bit of garlic or onion powder along w/ mayo.
Question: how does the food stay good for 7 days? I would think after 3 days of sitting it wouldn’t be the best to eat
I love your videos me and my wife couldn’t have kids we both knew that going into marriage but we adopted 10 kids 2 were from other countries one from Russia and one from Uganda and 3 are siblings but hey we could afford it I remember the first kid we adopted was Solvakov from Russia he was just a baby our last one we adopted was 14 at the time we adopted him so yeah
Have you been enjoying Christmas in July movies I have
I like old, classic Christmas movies. I watched Holiday Affair (1949), and Christmas in Connecticut (1945) recently. I don't like the modern, sappy , Hallmark ones. Christmas in July is fun though, but I stick with the classics. 😊
Grapes yuck, but everything else is awesome.
Why do you have foil covering your grill?
No onion?
Not everyone likes onion
❤️💜💙
Look for a ravioli dough cutter
Might be at age need two sandwiches.
I enjoy your videos very much. But,..I don't understand why those grown kids can't make there own lunches. The time it takes to make the things you do..homemade...yes, I'm sure they are better but, you don't have much time for your own self and all the other things you do around there. Bless your heart for being super-mom but, let those kids give you a break. Just sayin'
Doesn’t the bread get soggy?
Your kids are old enough to make their own lunches. In my family once your were old enough to use a knife safely you made your own lunch. They can learn to make chicken salad and much more. I was making my own lunches when I was 10 years old. What happens when your no longer around to do these things? Not trying to be morbid. Both of my parents have passed away I have nobody to cook for me. I cook for myself.
You do know the kids are old enough to make lunches ....however from past posts, the kids and husband run the farm...they bale hay and one post I believe the husband owns a concrete business and the kids run the concrete business ....the kids and husband do more than enough on the farm .
At what age do big kids make their own lunches…..
Some of us moms still like doing things for our adult kids. My mom did. So do I.
Do you use your own chicken?
No. She said she buys bags of Tenders at Meijer
Grapes?!?
Yeah some people put grapes in their chicken salad. I prefer it without, then again I don't like fruit and meat together. Her chicken salad does look pretty good just hold the grapes and if there's any nuts in it hold those too. ❤
@rmlrl1971.....some people use cranberries instead of grapes. I don't want either in mine and no nuts. I like it plain.
I don't understand how you can prep for a week...I would be afraid of food spoilage.
Obvious 🤦♀️🙄
Grapes don't go with meat
Says who? Just cause you say it doesn’t make it so.
That is not enough food for grown adults !
She adds to it. 🤦♀️🙄
It looks delicious, but I was a little stressed that you used the same spoon to mix the salad then put it into the mayo., it's now contaminated with chicken. Please no hate comments, I lovecwatching Heather and have for a long time, I'm just concerned that's all.
🤦♀️🙄
first time in your channel. i thought u have toddlers or below 10yo kids.
never thought theyre adults and some have a family of their own.
None of the adult kids have kids yet. Some boys live together and the older daughter is getting married soon.
I got a great lunch idea for ya - every year when my husband would travel away from home to got hunting for a week - I would make him and the whole hunting camp Strombolis - small hand held Strombolis - I bought frozen dough - any kinds of lunch meats and cheeses - took time the dough to thaw rise and dive up - press feel fold and back - easy breezy lemon squeeze - loved by all - at home and camp - I made them pocket size to travel out in the woods with everyone - no need for any sauce or veggies to make them soggy - bread meat cheese - now I’m craving these guys - haven’t made them in years but I could fill the freezer with them - love your ideas for meals celebrations and love of family -
❤
Love it!
"I have to produce more." 😂😂😂 That's the story of my life as my boys get older. ♥ When we make Cheez-its they never last long enough to go stale. They are a family favorite! 😊
❤😂🎉 1:36 1:39
Exactly! 😂
Now this is a proper meal prep with real food. Not like the ketchup sandwich or nutella roll ups I saw from other videos. Love your videos!
That looks delicious!! I would be afraid putting it on the bread would make it soggy but I bet it's yummy. Great job!
I love adding grapes or cranberries to my chicken salad!
i eat my chicken salade on lettuce never had it on bread.
A quick snack or lunch, thaw out frozen bread dough, cut each loaf into quarters. Roll out the quarters and add mozzarella and parmeasan cheese (fresh grated is best), a little italian seasoning, and pepper. You can add pepperoni. Fold and crimp. Either freeze or bake at 350F. Serve with pizza sauce
Sounds great!
Thank you for the ideas. I need more ideas like this. Please keep them coming.🥰
I make vegan mayo and it takes less than 5 minutes to make and cost me less than a $1.00., I have an egg and dairy allergy as well gluten allergy.
Just a suggestion maybe next time make a fruit salad along with the other items you are making.
Handy tip…to cut grapes (or small tomatoes) quickly, put them between two plates (not paper ones) and slice between the plates. You can cut 50 at once!
I need to try that cheez it recipe. I hate the after taste with the boxed ones.
I like the jalapeño & cheddar jack ones. 😊
@@jenniferhansen3622 I'll have to try them,I can't do the original
Do you make them lunches everyday?
Grapes in the chick salad!!
