Mandy, I live waaaaay out in the country so my pantry has to be stocked pretty much all the time (and the Lord has blessed us to allow that). I usually keep stocked on things to make chili, slow cooker pork & beans & rice, spaghetti, tacos, burgers & hot dogs, & homemade chicken noodle soup. I also make sure there’s always Mac & cheese & frozen chicken nuggets (my daughter’s favorite) and frozen pizzas for ‘no cook’ meals. (No, we don’t eat them raw, but they are pretty much heat-n-eat meals.). Additionally, we are NEVER without potatoes, in fact, it’s as necessary as toilet paper in our house! 😆😂🤣. You can do so much with potatoes. My mama always said, “As long as you have potatoes you’ll never go hungry.” By God’s sweet grace, we never have! 👆
Steven is the best sous chef….the commentary is like free entertainment….lol….
If you sprinkle baking soda on meat and leave about 15 to 20 minutes, they will be tender (Asian trick). You then wash all of soda off and season and cook.
Oh cool! Never heard of that!
I saw that on Cooks Country on PBS, the baking soda changes the surface PH & helps it brown better too.
We usually have breakfast for dinner when I don’t want to go to the store. We all love it!
We do that also.
I love that too, make a Homemade Egg McMuffin - but grill the Muffin vs toast it ... yum!
I always have grits, butter, eggs, cheese & biscuits on hand. I think I could live on that 😂. Also mini pepperoni, TX toast & mozzarella for quicky pizzas.🍕
I usually add a cup of leftover rice to my stuffed peppers and mix it all together.
I put rice in my peppers too
Ilovethe cheat sheet! I have it hanging in my pantry! Love seeing Stephen in the kitchen!
Because I am the only one in this house that eats them, when I buy the 3 pk of green peppers from Aldi, and only need a little bit. I cut the other 2 in strips or chunks and freeze them in small separate bags, that way I have one when I need one. They freeze wonderfully.
I do the same thing. I seal them up with my FoodSaver and I always have peppers when I need them. I do the same with the big packs of yellow, orange and red from Costco too.
Maybe I'm only one, but I love taking a Red Pepper & eating it like an apple!?
I chop mine up for stews and soups and broth. They don't like me when they're raw, no matter the color and idk why.
I just love sweet Gracie Lu. She makes me smile
Doesn't she have the most beautiful face & eyes!??
Hello Mandy, I used to work in a Store bakery. All of our products were 3 to 4 days code. Some products were 7 days. So A tip is to count the number of days forward to find out the freshest. Most breads are 3 to 4 days. So Today's date is Feb 2nd. The pull date is Feb 6th. So that's what you want to buy. Hope this helps. If your buying bread on the bread isle. The Store will have color tags for certain days. Like Tues load will be Blue. THURS load will be pink and Sunday load will be white. You just have to ask. They should be able to tell you. If not it might be posted somewhere. Keep in mind they do have outside vendors and they stock and load all if their products so they won't follow the same rule. Again hope this is helpful. Speghatti, Buritos/ tacos, a quick soup and Hamburgers are the dishes I keep on hand for a quick dinners
Tacos and Spahgetti, always on hand here too! Love those go to's!
I bet a bag of roasted corn mix would have been good in the stuffed pepper meat mixture.
Y’all are such a hoot! Steven’s demonstration of how to tenderize made me crack up😂Mandy, I love pantry meals..I went all January using the contents of my freezer…cleaned it out, saved money and had fun. So appreciate your channel and your family❤
Wow, that's hard to do, I'm impressed!
Im getting my own cheese monster today. A believer in Brimley got a kitty from the shelter. Her other kitty doesnt like him. So she is bringing him to me today. His name is Jake.
Congrats on the new family member❤
@@bonniepwtf she messaged me and said she wasnt bringing him today. That she wants to pray more about it first... :-(
Aww. That’s so disappointing!
@@louisesproul8493 Oh no! Well, it's a shame she didn't do that in the first place b4 getting your hopes up. Let us know what happens if you don't mind.🙏
Bless you for giving Jake a forever home😻. My nephew's name is Jake😊.
I always have Hamburger, Ecrich Skinless Smoked Sausage, Bob Evans Spicy Sausage and chicken breast (my grocery sells them in a bag of 10) in my freezer. Pillsbury make biscuits in the refrigerator section. I keep them in the freezer, they are very good. I always have rice, noodles, pasta and stuffing in my pantry. Onions and potatoes in my bin. I use my imagination on what to make.
Ahh Gracie Lou loved the pork chops too. So true .. gotta be careful on tough pork chops. 😊
I’m a new sub and have been binge watching all your videos. Love the family dynamic annnnd the smiles and laughter. Most of all I LOVE that you talk about your faith. Thanks for sharing. God bless you all. ~Lisa
I made your recipe of Pork Chops & Green Beans. Both excellent. Never had green beans fixed that way but from now on, that is they way I’m doing it. Haven’t had Pork Chops in years because mine always turned out tough. Fixed this way the Pork Chops were so tender, cut with a fork. Thank you so much for sharing.
I do a lot of baking, but sourdough & anything laminated like croissants, I just don’t have the patience for. I love the idea of ordering bread. Also, my family’s 2 main green bean recipes are green bean casserole & Mandy green beans. I have made your recipe so much that I don’t even need to look at the recipe anymore.
Lemon Pepper Fish Fillets
one pound frozen fish fillets
1/3 cup butter
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
1 tbsp lemon juice place frozen fish on foil lined cookie sheet
melt butter and stir in seasonings and juice.
Pour over fish. Bake at 400 20-25 minutes
I serve it with ready rice cooks in 90 seconds and a veggie quick and easy.
What type of fish do you usually use please?
I make unstuffed peppers so much easier, just chop like you would any vegetable and easier to eat.
Stuffed peppers are so good. I usually make mine in the crockpot and stuff them with ground beef and Spanish rice .
Steven is hilarious to cook along side of. Great pantry choices.😁❤
My go to meal without having to grocery shop is spaghetti, or breakfast for supper. It is always a treat to see beautiful Gracie Lou in your videos. The pork chops looked yummy. I never fry pork chops because during my childhood my mother would fry pork chops in her cast iron skillet & they would be raw inside and burnt on the outside.
THANK YOU! We always have beans on hand. So many meals can be made. I love watching your Bean video. Over and over🤗
I love stuffed peppers. One type I make is with poblano peppers. I use ground beef and chorizo, Rotel, onion and for the topping after cooking, I pour over melted white queso and top with cilantro. So delicious. One tip for the tomato paste you may already know but if you use the can opener and open both ends, you can push the paste all the way out so much easier.
I’m like you, I always have ingredients for chili.
That sounds delicious!
@@bonniepwtf it is so good!
Wonder if you can stuff the peppers with “pizza toppings “.. think that would be good?
Yes, that sounds DELISH..! Thank you for sharing the Recipe!
@@texasstardust6010 you’re welcome. It is our favorite
I keep ground turkey on hand and one of my husband's favorite "pick up" meals (Code for I didn't get to grocery or I'm too tired to think to cook) is Velveeta Rotel Dip. I keep chips on hand for him and he'll eat half of the small recipe by himself ... easy and tasty. I do add stuff like more chili powder and Wooster!
I always used Pinto Beans in my Chili. My Mother-in-law used Pork’n Beans in her Chili & all of her Kids & Grand Kids loved it.
I love how you talk to the food when it doesn't cooperate, sometimes you call it "sir" 😂. I really enjoy watching you and your family. Your meals make me very hungry.
I love tuna and noodles with smashed ranch chips on top.
Wow, that sounds delish! What kinda sauce do u put in the Tuna Noodle? I usually fo Cream of Chicken.
I loved this video . Especially your precious cat who seems to really love his resting spot. Thank you for showing clothes and necessities that even a 74 year young lady can enjoy. ❤
Gracie says thank you for the cheese 😂
Banana Pancakes: 2 very ripe bananas, 2 eggs, 3/4 tsp Baking Powder, and enough flour (1/4 cup or so) to make a batter consistency. Makes the best banana pancakes without refined sugar and use any toppings you like. For gluten free, use oat flour. Not mine originally, but I love these, and you will too.
I dig thru my pantry all the time and make up meals. Then the guys will sat, that was great, make that again! Think I can remember what all I put in there???😅
Wow, ur a true Chef! That's impressive!
These are great recipes y’all. I have made a lot of recipes in my 35 years of cooking, but one thing I’ve never done, is make my own flower/breading mixture to go on my fried pork chops. I’ve always bought the already done packets. I’ve got to try this. Thanks for sharing. 😊
I love these pantry cooking videos! We almost always have ingredients for one pot pasta meals. Two of my go-to's are garlic parmesan pasta with either chicken or steak, and chicken parmesan pasta.
Hello Mandy and Stephen from sister's Oregon! The thing I have ingredients for all the time in my pantry is tuna noodle casserole. And we always have breakfast for dinner ingredients. And almost always we have the things to make chicken pot pie. I love watching you and Steven and coal and Gracey. You get me through the long days while I'm sitting here on dialysis . Thanks for being so playful and cute. Keep up the good work!
Everything looks good.i have to try the pork chop recipes ❤
Happy Friday 😁.. I haven't made stuffed peppers in a long time.. 😋 I always have pasta, hamburger stuff or taco on hand. Therefore, I always have hamburger meat in my freezer. In my pantry I usually have tomato sauce, paste and tomatoes, beans, green beans and corn, Mac and cheese, and rice. Have a great weekend 🤗
Wildgrain is a little pricey but it is really good. I have been getting boxes every other month or so for the last year.
Tip on the bell peppers, cut/core them then throw them on the grill for a few minutes. Adds awesome flavor and you’re still getting the partial cooking done
Biscuits and gravy. Go too.. love your channel....❤
I was thinking a brine would work well on those pork chops and tenderize too. Actually the only pork chops that come in my kitchen are on the bone just like we had them when my mom cooked them when I was a kid. Which isn’t why I want them that way. They are just better for frying and baking. I would pound mine out like y’all did though if they were boneless and I had no choice.
Your new apron is so pretty. I wouldn’t want to get it dirty! Was Mom trying to send you a message to wear an apron. I know my Mom was like that bc her era all wore aprons. They are really cuter now than they used to be. Enjoyed the video.
I always have the fixings for chili and Alfredo and spaghetti. I know there's more but I can't remember lol 😂
Need prayers my daughter was diagnosed with lupus and MS she goes to her first appointment with rehumatoligest next week and neurologist end of month .to figure out treatments and plans going forward.Mandy I'm 64 ,I love your trick with the bell peppers that will save time I usually boil them in water to soften but like your trick should be a lot quicker.God Bless ♥️
I'll be praying + what's ur daughters first name?
Prayers 🙏 up!!
Praying for your daughter and family!
Either we turn leftovers into something totally different or put something together with pasta and whatever else is on hand. One big favorite is grilled cheese and tomato soup.
Loved the video and enjoyed seeing everything you came up for your pantry challenge. 🙂❤️💙💜🧩🍒🦋
I keep several celery sticks for a weekly hearty soup with large elbow macaroni, celery and diced beef stew meat. Very yummy in the cold winter months. I use a can of tomato sauce in that soup. I also keep ground beef on hand for either tacos, or a good pot of goulash 😊Love your recipes so keep 'em coming!
I love watching Pantry cooking videos. If I can skip a grocery trip the savings really add up!
Normally I almost always keep the basics for chicken and dumplings, pinto beans, spaghetti (or some sort of pasta) and sauce, taco supplies and ramen for those days when I’m just done in 😉 over the last few months some of our favorite foods have taken a turn for our aging bodies so I am having to find new staples to keep on hand.
Everything looked so good. I like the idea of frozen breads on hand I am not much a baker either.
God Bless your sweet family ❤
I am terrible at pantry challenges. I have always struggled with this concept. It's hard to do something different when my family is picky. Our go-to meals are tacos, spaghetti, or pancakes for dinner.😋
My go to pantry comfort meal is Cheesy Tuna Casserole with peas on the side served with potato chips on top. I love when you two cook together, you're a hoot!!!
Your channel is my favorite ‘cooking’ channel. Love your whole family. ❤
I just ordered my first wildgrain box I'm so excited to try it. 😊
Did you receive an emailed order confirmation from them, or anything? I did not, and then could not sign into my account on their website. So, all I know is I gave them nearly $72 and don't know IF they're sending anything, nor WHEN. I don't even have an order number (I assumed they'd send an email, like everyone else does, so did not print the confirmation page). Now, I'm finding they're very unresponsive in the 'customer service' department. They don't even have a phone number to talk to a human!!!
I did receive a confirmation email
Men are so comical to me. He just couldn’t help himself. He had to get all up in the middle of it 😂
Keep up the good work 💪
Chili, soup from whatever, casseroles, anything with Broccoli and cheese. Random protein starch with veggies.
Spaghetti with meat sauce. Salmon patties. Brats or Knockwurst and baked beans. Tuna or chicken salad. Dried beans and rice. Breakfast for any meal.
Gracie is the star 🌟 she's so cute, please tell her I love her. I've recently taken up cooking and baking again after a few years of health issues and I love watching you guys, your family is wonderful thank you for being your wonderful goofy selves ❤
I make beef quesadillas. I always seem to have the ingredients on hand. My family of 6 (four kids ages 24, 21, 19, 17) big eaters, when home, love them.
My go to pantry meal that I always have ingredients for is cheesy noodles and the bonus is it’s a one-pot meal. 1 pound of pasta, 1 can cream of mushroom soup, 1 can evaporated milk, 1 cup or more of sharp cheddar cheese grated. Make the pasta, cooking it to al dente, strain. Put the same pot back on the medium high burner, add the soup and milk, whisking till smooth. Bring it up to a simmer, add in the cheese, continuing to whisk until it’s melted and smooth. I usually add a pinch of salt and more than a pinch of pepper. Add the pasta into the pot, stir to coat with the sauce. Serve hot. Sometimes I add in chopped green onions or frozen peas before adding the pasta back. I have also made this, adding a can of drained, flaked tuna. This has the added bonus of being ready in under 15 minutes.
Savor the flavor grits are fantastic also!
Grits are my go to as well. I always have grits on hand; butter and pepper and sometimes cheese in the grits. 😀
I also always have stuff on hand for chili. It's a favorite in my house. Also, I need to tell you that when my cat hears Gracie Lou meow she comes running to meow back. It is so cute. Have a great day, ya'll.
I consider my refrigerator a cold pantry. I rarely have anything to eat in there (unless there are leftovers) - it's always just full of ingredients! So cooking with what I have is my every day way of cooking.
I usually make a homemade pizza, because almost anything can go on a pizza. I make a meat lovers pizza with tiny bits of meat leftovers from different meals that I have saved: pork chops, ground cooked breakfast sausage, cooked bacon, pepperoni, jalapeño peppers, sautéed baby portobello mushrooms ( sautéed in butter, Worcestershire sauce, little dash of wine, S&P), use some of my homemade marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese and Mexican blend cheese. Sometimes it just might be a barbecue pizza using chicken or barbecued pork roast that seasoned with Cajun seasoning. A fresh corn & tomato pizza with pesto sauce, Parmesan & mozzarella cheese( I sprinkle a tiny bit of sugar over the tomatoes & corn to bring out the sweetness), but our favorite is Pepperoni sausage and mushrooms .
We are new to your channel. I have loved the episodes I have watched. I have been shopping your channel for recipes. I think 95% of my meal plan for the week has come from your channel. I think my husband will be very happy with me this week. Thank you very much for trying all of these for us.
Have you ever done a video showing your garden? Would love to see it :-) These meals look delish! I am inspired to clean out my pantry and fridge! 😊
Man those pork chops looked so good. Fried pork chops, peas, mashed potatoes and milk gravy has always been my favorite. Thanks for the new recipes!
You yelling grace reminds me of lampoons Xmas vacation when they’re trying to g-ma to say grace 😂😂
I love breakfast for dinner when I don't feel like cooking! My go-to is eggs with feta on toast. And add some Trader Joe's crunchy chili onion to take it over the top!
I read a suggestion years ago to save your cereal bags to use when you have to meat. It was the greatest idea ever. There is no cleanup; you just throw the bag away! 7:39
You guys are so funny and entertaining 😂
Sausage gravy over homemade biscuits..Yum!
Love this I've been looking for a stuffed pepper recipe ❤❤
My go to pantry dish is usually goulash or I have the Lipton rice and sauce envelopes. I cook some diced chicken, onions and scrambled eggs (different pan, cooked and chopped). Add rice mixture to chicken mixture, then mixed veggies and the water per the pouch. Bring to a boil add chopped stir and serve! Mostly 1 pot dinner.
I pretty much always have pasta on hand and tomato sauce. It's quick and easy when I don't really feel like cooking or spending money on takeout
When I make stuffed peppers I always add rice so I can “stretch” the meat.
If you take the chops out 30 minutes or so before you flour them, it can help the meat to be softer
Breakfast for dinner what we do. All looked delicious.
Beef tallow is good for frying 😋
Knowing how y’all like some heat, adding red pepper flakes to your flour coating on the pork chops, is so good!
No matter what you cook it is always good, but Gracie Lou is my favorite part of your videos. She makes me happy just seeing her. D
I always have the ingredients for spaghetti & meatballs. Also, tuna sandwiches and soup! Not fancy but it's a meal! 🤩
Same. I always have those ingredients on hand. Also Red Beans, Sausage and Rice.
Mandy, when I make stuffed peppers I add the flavored rice in with meat mixture and stuff the peppers. Really good! Does anyone one else do it that way? Love Gracie Lou!! She’s so sweet
I have a cat named Zelda and she sounds like a a screaming goat, when she wants something 😂❤
I always have stuff for spaghetti, chili, mac&cheese, tacos, these are our go to dishes. Since I left my job we have a very tight budget so I do a lot of pantry cooking especially since we only do 1 big haul a month. I do go get a few things in between like bread. I just signed up for your news letter. So excited for that. You all take care
Pantry challenges are my favorite! Please do more! I learned today that you can make stuffed peppers in the crockpot. I thought they would be soggy. I already have the green peppers so I’m going to try that today. Thanks for the idea!
I have a secret Mandy! I like your videos before I even watch them because I know I'm going to love them! Bonus points if Gracie Lou is getting something to eat !
Cumin a half to whole teaspoon can really give it a Smokey flavor. Totally worth it
I have to tell you, I was watching your video while I was making dinner and I needed a side dish but didn’t know what to make. Then I realized I had green beans so I tried your green beans for the first time. They were delicious!! Thanks for the inspiration 😊
Love all your videos but this one reminds me that dinner doesn't have to always be over the top and fancy! Thank you!! ❤
Love pantry meal ideas hope you do more! Love your channel watch it all the time.
Hey sweet friend. Asking y'all to please pray for me. I have been battling a bad sinus infection for the past week and it's affecting my vision in my left eye. Thank you in advance. God Bless.
🙏🙏🙏
Prayers!
Prayers and love to you!
Get well soon !
✌️💖🙏
Prayers being sent up
We love her. I love your channel. It's soothing to me. I don't cook much, but I wish I could
Hi again! In answer to your pantry question... I always have cream of mushroom soup, chicken breasts and rice on hand. My go to is Chicken and rice. Cook Rice separately, place chicken in casserole, season with salt pepper and paprika , in a medium bowl mix together soup with 1 can of milk and pour over chicken. Bake for 45 minutes on 350⁰. Serve over the rice. It's delicious!! When we're kids and our aunt would come up from Florida to babysit us when our parents were away, she would make it with bone- in, skin-on thighs and throughout our lives we called it Aunt Maria's Chicken. I would love for you to try it. God Bless y'all!
Good Evening Everyone, I love to see everyone's didn't take on chili. Us "Northerns" must be the only ones to add celery? I find it funny we're having 50 weather up here and no snow. Much love to you guys from Wisconsin ❤️
Thanks mandy for all your wonderful dishes.
You both work so well together
Another great video
In a pinch we have Frozen cheese ravioli with canned pasta sauce if I don’t have homemade meat sauce. When I make Taco Soup (recipe from She’s in her Apron) I freeze in containers and pull out when I’m not in the mood to cook. I also make meat sauce and freeze in containers for spaghetti dinner. I love Mexican Gumbo over rice from UA-camr Jodi Dunn. Try Shrimp Scampi from Laura in the Kitchen. Love it.
I microwave lots of vegetables because I can't eat them raw. I add Italian bread crumbs to my stuffed peppers, a cut up tomato, and bite size eggplant or zucchini and rice. It's a complete meal.
Awesome recipes, thanks Mandy and Steven 👍👍👍
Awesome video. Everything looks so delicious ❤️
