My friend @LifeWithValerieRose who was responsible for my taco ring craving LOL
Taco Ring:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine half pound cooked ground beef, 1 packet taco seasoning, 1 cup shredded cheese and 2 tablespoons water. Arrange crescent triangles in a circle on pizza pan with bases overlapping in center and points to the outside, leaving a circle in the middle. Spoon meat mixture over crescents, fold points of triangles over filling and tuck under base at center. Filling will not be completely covered. Bake 15-25 minutes (until golden brown)

Pork Roast with Plum Sauce:
Mix 2 cloves garlic, 1 tsp sage, ½ tsp black pepper together and rub all over 2-3 lb pork loin roast (long one). Bake at 325 degrees for 2 hours uncovered
Sauce - Mix 1 cup red plum jam, 3 tbsp red wine vinegar, 4 tbsp soy sauce, 3 tsp dry mustard and ¼ tbsp allspice together in saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce and simmer 2 minutes.
Tip from Debbie: I put this roast on at about 9:15 am before church and bake between 275 and 300 degrees. We usually get home about 1pm and it’s awesome. If you have time, I suggest this temperature. I fixed this Sunday and it would melt in your mouth.

Its soooo weird!! The way you cook reminds me of my grandmother. Very simple, to the point, use can goods, but its soooo good and so homie🏡 . Even the way you pronounce "potatoes", reminds me of her. ❤ Its weird, bc we're black. 😂 but grandma use to cook like this. It shows good food, is good food! Everyone loves some good food.
Shee, I love this comment more than you'll ever know. 🥰 I truly believe our grandmothers knew how to do it 🤣 If it's too hard or has too many ingredients I just won't fool with it, I know me😉. And I agree 100% food brings people together and I love serving people thru good food. Thanks again for this comment, I hope you don't mind that I pinned it to the top of the section. This is truly what me and my channel is all about. Loving and serving God and loving and serving people 🥰 Have a blessed week friend 💖
Color isn't a issue when we are hungry, I'm white, but some of the best cooks are black.God made us, we're the same under our outer skin.
❤️🥰 yes and amen
Thank you Mel for posting your recipes. Thank you for your calming voice. I'm a navy veteran dealing with a lot of stress and your videos are so calming. I've tried a few of your recipes and yeah they are simple but delicious !!

The Salisbury steak was delicious. Papaw sure loved it. The green beans were good also.lol
I'm so glad he liked it
Thanks so much for sharing. Everything looked really good. Great meals. 👍😎👍❤️💕🥰😋😋😋😋😋
Hi Cheryl, it was a good week for eating round here 🥰 Thanks for watching and you have a blessed week 😊
oh the salisbury steak meal looks sooooo good,,,saving this to make it soon,,,,hope u had great bible school ...have a good week
Thanks friend, you will love it! It's so flavorful and tender. And we had a great first night of VBS, it was great to see the classrooms full of kids again. Keep us in your prayers and have a blessed week ❤
Great what's for dinner
Thanks so much Michelle, I appreciate you watching! Have a blessed week ❤
I always keep red currant jelly in the house because when I lived in the UK that was what we used for pork and other things. :-)
I absolutely love Salisbury steak and yours looked delicious! I have never heard of extra green green beans. Now I’m going to be looking for those at Kroger. Your friend Debbie sounds like a true blessing. True friends are far and few between. Great video!
Thanks so much Andrea, it was so good. I hadn't made it in a long time for us so we were ready 🤣 I've never noticed those beans either, they were good. And Debbie is one of a kind, we are still good friends and I believe we will be for life ❤ Thanks so much for watching
Can't pick just one they all look delicious. God bless see you next video.
🥰 aahh thanks so much Peggy, we did eat good this week. Thanks for watching and see you Wednesday, have a blessed day ❤
Oh my goodness! Salisbury steak! I haven’t had them in such a long time. My granny raised me and she made the absolute best Salisbury steak. I haven’t had the heart to make them since she passed, she always made them on a cold winter day with some mashed potatoes, homemade buttermilk biscuits and green peas. It was my absolute favorite meal she made. I cannot wait to try yours! They looked amazing! It’s so funny how good can bring so many memories back and so much emotion. Thank you for reminding me of my precious granny. I miss her deeply, she was truly my best friend. Much love to you and your family!
That's so precious, and I agree that food really triggers memories 🥰 We call my momma Granny too, she's only 67 years old and was in her early 40s when we she became Granny. I actually just picked up my phone to look up the pin for this recipe 🤣 I'm putting in my grocery order and wanted to make sure I have everything for them. I have a pound of ground beef to use up and thought I would make them tomorrow, they're my husband's favorite. So yes, I believe you will love them, too. Have a blessed night.🥰
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I am so glad your momma is still with you. Cherish that time with her because it’s never enough time.
My granny was amazing in every way. Her and my granddaddy really stepped up when my daddy died. I was 9 when he passed away and was heading to foster care but my grandparents would have none of that. My grandparents weren’t well off, my grandfather farmed and preached at the local Church of Christ and my granny had a small diner that probably never turned a nickel in profit because she was feeding those in need. Half the time her diner was a soup kitchen but she didn’t care, nobody went hungry on her watch. They gave up their retirement to raise me. They worked their tails off to make sure I had gymnastics lessons and private school even though they couldn’t afford it to make sure I had every advantage to get a good education.
My daddy was supposed to play football for Bama but my senior year he had to give up his scholarship to marry my momma who left when I was 4 months old because I was on the way. He joined the Army instead playing football at Bama. I guess that’s why I worked so hard to get there. I got my degree there not just for me but for my daddy too. He was such a good man and losing him was one the hardest things I have ever dealt with. Losing my granny was the next hardest thing I had to face. I lost my daddy, my granddaddy and my granny by 16. I pushed myself to graduate a year early from high school with a 4.2 GPA and took that scholarship to Bama with pride. I’m glad they saw the potential in a poor farm girl like me. I’m currently working on my second degree from Bama. I’m getting my MBA doing Bama by distance and graduate again in May 2022.
Kristy, What a testimony! What an amazing life story and what selfless love your grandparents showed, for you and sounds like others too. I am so sorry for all of the loss that you experienced at a young age. But I am so glad that you took it in stride and really lived out the example from your grandparents raising. I am so in awe of how hard you have worked and what all you have accomplished. I can't wait for you to get your next degree and see where life takes you. You have much to be proud of. I know your family would be so proud of you, what all you have done and the person you have grown into. There is nothing that can ever take the place of our loving families. I'm so glad your grandparents were there for you when your father passed.
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I have to thank my granddaddy for instilling such faith in the Lord. Truly, I could not be where I am without trusting that God will provide. My faith is my rock.
My granny raised me to be strong. Joshua 1:9 tells us have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed for the Lord your God is with you wherever you shall go. It carried me through the hard times, kept me focused and kept me disciplined.
I know they have to be proud. I’ve made a lot of sacrifices to get where I am and be the person I am today. I trust in God that He would never give me a cross to heavy to bear alone. I have a wonderful husband, a healthy and happy son, a beautiful home and a spoiled English bulldog that I rescued down in Chattanooga. I have a good life and I believe that the hardships made me humble myself down to the Lord even more because my life could have turned out so differently had I not surrendered to His plan for me.
Amen 💯
Everything looks so delicious, thanks so much Mel,👍👍👍
Hey Christeen, you are so welcomed. I enjoy this so much and appreciate your support in watching. Have a blessed day ❤
Delicious looking meals 👍🏼 I like the Salisbury steaks in the crockpot! I’ll have to try that! Have a great week 🦋
Hey friend 🥰 I love it in the crock pot, I am bad to over cook it on top of the stove...plus I can always use an easy cooking night. Have a blessed week ❤

Everything looked delicious
Thanks so much Deborah, it was yummy 😋 have a blessed week ❤
Looks delicious
I need to try the Salisbury steak your way. It looks scrumptious!
Hi, Sweet Mel. I love "visiting" with you no matter what you make. That pork dinner has to be my favorite. I hope you have a great upcoming week, my dear.
🥰 Cindy, you're so sweet! I love visiting with you too! The pork is SOOO good. Thanks so much for being here, have a blessed week ❤
I’ve made a taco ring recently and we loved it… I love to watch you cook whatever, I just love ya!! ☺️
🥰 Thank you so much, I love to watch you too girl! Love you to pieces ❤
I made taco soup today in the Crock-Pot with my 4-year-old grandson. It came out absolutely delicious and I always put crushed yellow corn tortilla chips in the bottom of the bowl and sour cream and cheese on top. A little lime juice if I feel like it. They are all waiting to try it tomorrow because it took too long to cook for them to wait. :-)
Yummy that sounds so good. I've eaten taco soup a bunch but believe it or not I've never made it myself lol, I always end up making something else... I'm making a pot soon!
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel do it! I love it and I crumble up tortilla chips on the bottom and put cheese and sour cream on the top with a little lime. It gives me food for most of a week. :-) I also have some slow cooker Taco casseroles that are Uber delicious! :-)
Oh i love salisbury steak!! Its been a while 😂 TFS 🥰
Me too, Charity. And I hadn't fixed it in a while either. It hit the spot 😋
oh my goodness! all of these look so good, but the taco ring I've been wanting to try!
Autumn you will love it, it might have been my favorite meal in this video.. It's hard to choose. Have a great week❤
The three recipes looks so delicious! Thanks for sharing
Hey Walker Family, thanks for watching ❤ have a blessed week!
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel same to you
Everything looks sooo delicious 💕💕💕
Thank you so much Phyllis, we didn't starve for sure 🤣 have a blessed week ❤
Lol @ I got more than pinto beans in me😂 it all looks delicious, thanks for sharing , God bless
Although, I would have been just as happy with a pot of beans 🤣. It was great but I'm just saying......❤thanks so much for watching Charlene, I appreciate it so much. Have a blessed week ❤
I so excited about this taco ring and the Salisbury steak!🤤🤤
Thanks Heather, you're always so encouraging! And you will love them both! ❤
I'm going grocery shopping today or tomorrow to pick up the ingredients
Be sure to let me know how everything turns out 🥰
I will❤
The first recipe on this video is my favorite of the week. Taco croissants w/salad looks amazing!
Oh Barb it was delicious, It had been way too long since we had this.
When I was 8 years old my mother bought one of the first crock pots ever made and the liner the crock was not removable. At that age I made the first recipe in the Crock-Pot at home and it was a garlic stuffed pork roast. At least once a month my family wanted me to make it again. Now they are all gone I'm The last One alive and I am just middle-aged but I have my memories and my garlic stuffed pork roast! :-)
What a precious memory Elizabeth 🥰 I remember having a crock pot without the removable crock too 🤣 your garlic pork roast sounds delicious. I'm praying that you have lots of great friends in your life to keep you busy and support you with all your family being passed. I remember something my husband's grandmother told me about getting older. She said the hardest part was that all of your family and friends were gone and she missed them. 😢 But she kept on going had lots of hobbies enjoyed quilting, gardening and we kept her busy as we could. I hope you have a very blessed day thank you so much for watching❤
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel oh thank you so much you are very sweet! :-)
I think you are sweet too and I appreciate you so much 🥰
Everything looks so good! I’ve never had plum and pork, that sounds good!
Thanks Maegen. It is a wonderful combination, the sauce really makes it special. ❤
All threee looks great but the Taco ring really got me.
👍you will love it! I've been making them for years. For a while we never ate tacos anymore, just "The Ring" as my family calls it 🤣. But now we've been throwing down on some of those homemadr crunch wrap supremes. Have you tried them?
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I have and thinking of them now.
🤣 I'm so sorry...
Looks so good. 😋.. 😋👍
Thanks Teresa, it was yummy. Have a blessed day ❤
Going to share with my daughter !
Thanks so much Teri, I appreciate it so much. Have a blessed week ❤
Everything looks delicious! Definitely wanna try the taco ring! Have a great night 😊
Hi Rachel, thanks as always for watching, I appreciate it so much. And I believe you will love the taco ring. 🌮 Have a blessed week ❤
Thank you 😊
The taco ring on Valerie’s channel looked so good, and yours does too!
Yes, her videos always make me hungry 😋 Thanks so much for watching Stephanie. Have a blessed day ❤
Everything looked amazing as usual! I have been craving some pork tenderloin I will have to try that!
Thanks so much, that sauce and the crust that rub makes is 💖 it has never disappointed me 👍 have a blessed day ❤
Everything looks so good , as always 💕 We love Salisbury steak , I need to try it that way! That taco ring looks so good and fun! Have a great week too my friend 💖
🥰 thanks so much. I always make it in the crock pot now. I am so bad to overcook meat like that on top of the stove, and this solves that problem for me 🤣. And at the pampered chef parties they would always take a green bell peppers and hollow them out and put lettuce, tomato, etc in them then put them inside the ring to serve. It was real pretty. Thank you for watching and I hope you have a blessed week ❤
Yummy in my tummy ❤💕❤. Gonna have to try these!! Thanks for sharing Mel! 😀
❤thanks so much Sammie, you have a blessed week
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel thanks and I hope you do as well 😊💕
Wow these are all such amazing meals! I loved the taco ring, such a cool idea! My mouth is watering over all of this! Nicely done, I'm really so hungry now!

Girl, you're the best! Thanks so much, I hope you are finding lots of new ideas 🥰👏

Wow your meals always look soooo so good! Thanks for sharing! I need to try your Salisbury steak recipe. Hope VBS goes smoothly. I haven’t worked vbs in many years but
Remember it was a big job❤️
🥰 thanks so much Mindy. That Salisbury steak has so much flavor and is like butter. It just melts 😋. And I survived VBS, first night anyway.... we'll see how I feel come end of the week 🤣. Have a blessed week ❤
Hey Mel! Happy Monday 🙂 I'm glad that my taco ring looked good enough to give you that craving 😋. Can't go wrong with a yummy easy meal like that. Your meals look so delicious! I didn't know they made extra green green beans lol. I loved hearing about your friend Debbie, she sounds like an amazing friend to have in life 🙂
Yes, Valerie I always end up hungry after watching your videos 🤣 I appreciate your kind words so much. And I never noticed them either, I don't know if they're some other variety or what??? I didn't notice a taste difference but how did they get so green 🤣. And sweet Debbie 🥰 I love that girl so much, she has a heart full of love and generosity like I've never seen. She is precious to me. Thanks so much for watching and always being so encouraging ❤
New subbie here. Your meals look WONDERFUL!
Hi, so glad that you're here. Thanks for watching, I hope you will continue to find lots of good supper ideas and fun here. Have a blessed evening ❤
Another nice one Mel thx
Thanks so much!
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel you're welcome
1 of My hubby's sister's made this taco ring it was so good. We topped ours with tomato, lettuce , sour cream what ever we wanted I thought it was a neat sub for tacos it was really good. Hmmm I'm gonna have to try those crock pot salisbury steaks we've never had them home made before only store bought.
I'm so glad yall enjoyed the taco ring, it's one of our favorites 👍 And those Salisbury steaks are so easy and yummy. Thanks so much for watching Lisa, I hope you have a great day friend 😊
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel Thanks ☺️ and thanks for including the recipe. We're definitely gonna try them.
Mel,
We really enjoyed another week of great recipes again! 😁💛
Everything looked so good!
Yes, I recall making the Taco Ring from my little Pampered Chef cookbooks too. 🥰 I need to make it again! Thanks for reminding me if it.
We love that you added such great things to your retried beans. 😁💛
Good evening Jennifer! Aren't those little cookbooks just the best! And they always hollowed out a green pepper and put it in the middle and filled it full of tomatoes and lettuce and stuff like that to eat with it. Thanks so much for watching, I appreciate you so much. Have a blessed week ❤
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel Yes, I forgot about the adorable pepper in the middle. 😁👏💛
Such fun recipes. 🥰
This looks very Delicious My 1st time visiting your channel. It's a very good recipes. I just shared your UA-cam video on Cocktails and Cuisine Facebook Group. Cheers
🥰 Thanks so much Tony, I appreciate that! I'm on Facebook and IG too 👍 I'm so glad you're here and I hope I continue to bring you more good food to enjoy ❤
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel watch a Cocktail Tony when you get a chance. Cheers
Will do Tony, thanks 😊
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You family doesn’t like mushrooms. Mine refuses to eat onion. Cooking almost ANYTHING w out onions is downright sinful. Yet, they even claim to “sense” onion in seasoning packets & give me the side eye. 😑 Pleasing the family is difficult. Please give me a tip so one day I may cook something I enjoy to eat as well. 😊Thank you for the lovely recipes. You have a new sub.
I like to add Bacon and Onions to my Green Beans
That sounds wonderful 😋 thanks for sharing. Have a blessed week. ❤
It all looked delicious! I don’t like sage… what would you suggest to use in place of that on a pork roast? I am def making the taco ring … thanks for all the great looking meals!
Good evening Christy, thanks so much for watching! Tyme or Rosemary would probably be good. If you don't like anything too strong you could do a poultry season. Let me know what you end up doing and how it turns out. Have a blessed week ❤
I never heard of red plum jam before, but that meal looks and sound absolutely delicious! I am absolutely making that next week! (I already looked to see if my walmart carries that jam, no. Hopefully one of my other two grocery stores do!) Great video all of the meals look amazing!
Heather I get it at Kroger, but I can't remember if you had a kroger's in your town or not. But I bet Food Lion would have this too. 🤔 The sauce makes this dish 😋 I hope you can find the jam, let me know how it all goes. Have a blessed week friend ❤
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I unfortunately have none of those stores. But if I can not find it I will find something very similar. I hope your week is great!
I was thinking you were in the Kroger desert 🏜🤣. I'm sure any similar jam will do the trick 😉
Yumm everything looks so delicious as always. I'm adding a few of these meals to my meal plan. Hope you have a great evening and week. See you next video. Stay safe, healthy, and cool. God Bless.
Thanks so much Alma, as usual I ate like a pig 🤣 but all 3 of these were meals I had not had in a long time and they really hit the spot for me. You have a blessed week too. ❤
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel you're welcome. I don't blame you. I would of too. I love a good home cooked meal over fast food. Thank you. Y'all too. We're supposed to get rain all week.
Maybe the rain will cool it off some. You're in Southwest TN right?
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I hope so. Yes ma'am.
Well send a little cool rain back towards East TN. We are sweating 😓over here
Still going through all these past videos. :)
The food in this one, holy cow. I think I’m gonna dah lol. Pure torture 😩 (of the best kind) ♥️
Oh I love this video ❤ I just thought about my sweet mamaw the whole time I was cooking. My aunt says that my hands look like hers, she noticed the resemblance while watching my videos 😭
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel Aw that’s so sweet 🥺.. food and cooking really is all about family, isn’t it. I just lost my mom a couple years ago and she was the cook in our family. Things will never be the same without her. I bet your mamaw is so proud. ♥️
She was always proud of her family, she had 9 children and I've lost count of grandkids. She was a special and hard working little woman for sure.❤ And I'm so sorry about your momma. That is a hard loss, they just seem to be the glue of the family. I'm praying for you 🙏
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel Wow, big family. That’s great. I wish we had a big family. My brother and I are the only ones left. My mama was my best friend in the world, but she struggled with depression and addiction for so long.. she was in so much pain, and she finally decided she wanted to leave this world. It’s been a rough rough road. My relationship with God has suffered a ton. But I’m trying to get my life put back together ♥️ I’m sorry if that was too much info. Don’t wanna be a party pooper over here lol ♥️
You always have an ear here. Depression is real and such a hard problem to help someone with. I completely understand that best friend relationship with your momma and that makes the loss so much harder.
Be sure to stay close to your brother and help each other cope. And talk to the Lord, it does matter how long it's been, He still cares about you and will comfort you and help you thru the hardest days. I will definitely keep you in my prayers and i am always willing to listen, cry and pray.
The baking pan that you cooked the meat in, was beautiful! Where did you get it?
Thanks Becky, I got them from Belk. They are made by Baum Brothers. I bought these a couple years on clearance. I've got the oval one and two sizes of rectangle ones. I'm pretty thrifty but I am a sucker for pretty kitchen stuff ❤ Belk still carries this brand but not this design. I also got two more porcelain baking dishes from Belk made by Cook Tools ( I believe that's the name, it's kinda their store brand) they are solid burgandy but have pretty scalloped edges. I haven't looked online for them again, so I'm not sure of their availability. But I have been very pleased with the performance of both brands and easy clean up.
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I will get on there and look around even if they are no longer available, I am sure they still have beautiful kitchen stuff I would love. Thank you!
Oh yes, and they run good sales and coupons etc. I paid much less for mine than I would have paid for Pioneer Woman at Walmart. Hope you find some prettys.❤
Mel, what time & temperature to bake the potatoes? Thanks!
Oh JoAnn that would have been helpful 🤣 400 for anywhere from 25 - 35 minutes. Mine didn't take quite as long because I stuck them in while the pork was finishing off. Thanks so much for watching, I appreciate you ❤
Can u use the plum sauce on a beef roast
I'm sure it would be delicious Alisha. We put it over potatoes 😉 and use the extra on chicken nuggets, too. I hope you enjoy it. it's such a simple little addition but it makes everything seems so fancy. Thanks for watching and have a blessed evening.🥰
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel u to every thing looks wonder I'm making a grocery list
Ah ha. Another pampered chef item. Pizza cutter. See I told u. I think we both use a lot of the same pampered chef items. Lol.
Mel, does the sauce taste sweet or savory?
Both LOL but mostly just delicious LOL
I haven’t had a taco ring in years and I don’t know why. I’m going to have to make it again soon. With football starting up, it would be a great quick weeknight meal to make.
Yes Jen, it's perfect for a busy night! And so tasty 😋 Sometimes I will just forget about something that I have made and loved if I haven't made it a while. Especially with all the great new recipes floating around. Thanks so much for watching and have a great weekend 😊
I do not ever keep Italian seasoning in my house! It is too strong it is a lot of stems and it doesn't belong in most recipes in my humble opinion. :-)
Hey, Mel… do you have a PO Box or address you can share so that I can send you a letter, card, etc..? Thanks!
Cindi that is so sweet 🥰 but I don't have a PO Box. Feel free to message me on Instagram, I would love to hear from you.
