I love you guys! Sandwich looks delish and you guy are so real. My husband reacts just like yours...his favorite restaurant to eat at is my kitchen!!! He is always amazed how plant based foods taste so good.
I love the t-shirt your husband is wearing. Did you tell him to wear it or you weren't feeding him? Hahaha! Amazing sandwich. Looks too good, I definitely want to make this.
Hi, i'm from Germany and really like the idea of the creamy Sauerkraut 😁. Usually i don't like to use Klischees (?) but this time it fits. By the way: I really like your Channel and always look forward to a new Episode. Keep making such beautiful and interesting Videos. Helped me a lot. Have a nice day! And thanks!
Woodstock 85 I would never have thought in a millions years to toss sauerkraut and Russian dressing together. It makes perfect sense now that I've done it. I have just a little of it leftover. Someone suggested to use it top a baked potato. What do you think? Thank you for watching and the sweet praise!
Yeah I did see that, it was the reason I decided to try it. You and your hubby were funny though. If you guys said those were good, then I have to try them😁😂
I am new to you site but we have tried three of the recipes so far and all were a big success. My husband and I had this last night was a huge success.
Thank you for subscribing! Holler anytime you have a question about a recipe you have seen on this channel or a recipe you have seen somewhere else. I never tire of the topic of food.
It took me a while to get the tempeh, make the bacon with it and them finally make these Righteous Reubens but it was so worth the wait! Bob, my hubby, and I both were so busy eating we couldn't stop to talk. I didn't have pickle relish and I used my homemade mayo substitute which is tangy and it worked well. I will be making them again soon. I rarely eat sandwiches but with all the tomatoes and basil in the garden this time of year we eat more sandwiches. Wanna BLTs are next up on the lunch special menu.
Terry Brown Oh I'd like to have a little garden next year. I have fun with growing sweet tomatoes and herbs. Nothing says summer like a window seal lined with tomatoes.
I made this today for father's day lunch. HUGE hit with me, him, and our 2 girls who are 6 (twins) One said "these are just delicious, just delicious!" Yes this will be a staple sandwich for sure. Thank you!
Vanessa Anderson Yes, indeedy! I'm wondering how it would turn out to make extra filling to reheat for later. I'm thinking reheat the filling in the microwave, get out the leftover creamy sauerkraut, and heat up the griddle. What kind of soup do you think would go well with this sandwich? Creamy Tomato? I wouldn't mind making this a light dinner from time to time.
Simple Daily Recipes Made this tonight for dinner, it is HOT here so no soup for us today. Served with the potato salad with tofu mayo. Oh ya! It was a huge hit. Got my big black salt rock out for it. Perfect summer meal
Vanessa Anderson That's sounds wonderful! I've got another sandwich I want you to try. The spread is made from red lentils and the recipe comes out of Deena Burton's new cookbook, Plant-Powered Families. Originally the recipe recommended as a base for tortilla pizzas, did that, too, they were awesome. Today, however, I used the leftover lentil spread between two slices of toast, added some shredded carrot, sliced tomato... I inhaled it. Have you ever been at your desk, working and eating at the same time, and looked down at your plate to get another bite only to realize you've devoured your lunch before you were finished tasting it? That happened to me today.
Nice! I have that book too. I have been wanting to try her red lentil hummous, Looks like I will make both soon. I love love a good sammie. And you can be sure those lentils are going in my whoot whoot instant pot
Vanessa Anderson That's the one! The red lentil hummus is what she uses for the tortilla pizzas. It's really good. I ended up simmering the lentils in the iPot with the saute mode. Those red lentils don't take long to cook to mush.
We’re not vegan but both my in laws and parents are vegan so we eat a lot of vegan meals. I made this the other day and it knocked our socks off good. Thanks for sharing!! Love your videos ❤️
When I was growing up in Tennessee, we would be at the dinner table and my Dad would say to my Mom, "That was... by far...THE BEST (whatever she had made that night) I have ever put into my mouth! Ever!" He said this at least 3 times a week and it was sincere. She was and still is a great cook. And on that note, that was... by far... THE BEST sandwich I have ever put into my mouth! Ever! No joke. My husband couldn't believe it! I will say that I did toast the rye bread before I put the sandwich together and it helped it not get soggy. Holy Cow! It was good. I can't get over it. I'm gonna make it for the whole family tonight for dinner and see how the kids do. My guess is, my son will like it and my daughter will not. We shall see!
As you were making that sandwich "my goodness" you made me with to start eating bread again. It's late at nite 11:27pm but tomorrow is another day maybe you can make me that sandwich . Great video now I have to dream about how good the sandwich loooked. Wow!
Okay Jill... I'm not vegan, I'm definitely a meat eating, McDonald's stopping type of girl. I came across your chanel looking for instant-pot recipes. You were so entertaining I found myself watching several of your videos. After watching your Reuben Sandwich video I found myself thinking "do I have those ingredients...?" We'll I had everything but the Tempeh bacon and of course the vegan mayo. I made it with regular mayo, and did not put any meat to substitute the tempeh bacon. 5 stars! I loved it! You got me thinking sister!
+Shanna Bundrick GIRL!! Whenever you have a question or you just want to talk about cooking more veggie meals, holler for me. Look me up on Facebook, Jill Ann McKeever or shoot me an email, jill@simpledailyrecipes.com
Shaen Wee It made me hungry while I was recording the narrative video part. I had just eaten a couple of hours earlier and I wanted to eat it all over again by the time dinner rolled around.
Thanks for another entertaining video. A thought about other uses for the creamy sauerkraut - topping for baked potatoes! or maybe kind of a Bavarian type potato salad - think I'll try that with black salt, some chopped onions, celery and peas. you're inspiring!
hamrthroer I've drooled over it, too. That creamy potato salad recipe would be a good for repurposing leftover pressure cooked baby red potatoes. I've been cooking up bags of baby potatoes, seasoning them with black salt and pepper then tossing them into a plastic bag and into the icebox. Great travel and pool food. I've got a bag of gators in the icebox now. I'm going to turn on the camera and whip up that potato salad now to see how good it is. Stay tuned.
okay I'm pretty convinced that the only reason you've got the four thumbs down is because they were jealous of how good your food looks and how cute you and your husband are together
I've been making all of these dishes. I made this one on Sunday and it was great, next time i plan on using half of amount of vegan mayo. I now need to save up to buy grill. lol
Really loved what Charlie said about going to McDonald's to "abuse himself so he could feel good for a little while." My DH said he wanted to go vegan with me because he wasn't feeling good. Tried it for a month then gave up. Although, he never really tried it....can't tell you how many times I found McD wrappers in our car & he would blame it on his kids even though he hadn't seen them that weekend ; (
+Ivy Mist That has been my family's downfall, that and fries at BK. They always get tummy aches, but they keep going back. They are addicted. In a way, they are victims....LOL Patience. They eventually see it.
This would taste amazing with homemade fermented cabbage. The heat would destroy the probiotics in it, but you could have some as a condiment with it. Or fermented cauliflower... or any other veggie you want to ferment.
This sandwich is amazing. We don't have access to the tempeh where we live so we decided to try tofu. It works as well. I used the marinade that is used for the tempeh bacon and left it in the fridge for a few hours. I then baked it for about 15 mins in a 425F oven. I was wondering what brand panini grill you use? I have done some research and found a few that look good and wanted your opinion on the one you use.
+Stacy Mauriala I researched indoor grills and settled on the Griddler 5-in-1. I can't remember the 5 functions. The reason I bought it was because the heating coils extend out to the edge and in the center for full surface heating. Plus, the top has a release button to help it lay all the way back for a second griddle surface.
Mysasser1 Greetings! Did you know I grew up in Garland? Sure did! Lived in Fort Worth for a while, then Sulphur Springs and now Austin. I've been around Texas ;D
TINO SASSER Yeah, I'm going back to my old way of life little brother. When I get my apartment you can come over and eat with me! I'm trying to get the juicer and the food processor from dad since he doesn't use it. He gave me the nuwave oven so that will serve as my dehydrator! I cannot wait til he gets his other knee replaced so I can have my own pantry and fridge stocked how I like it without him throwing away things because he doesn't know what it is lol!
Down the middle - the tempah bacon is set diagonally so... I love these sandwiches, but I have to get bread or bake it myself with no salt - in fact Hubbs Harry bakes our bread!!
This looks so good! I don't have any sauerkraut or I would make this right now. Have you ever made your own sauerkraut? It is so yummy. Fermented foods provide us with natural pro-biotics that keep our immune system healthy. I learned from the book "The Art of Fermentation" by Sandor Katz. It is a great cookbook and teaches how to make tempeh and miso from scratch.

Jill, please don't buy sauerkraute. Kraut is one of the easiest ferments to make. Sure, you have to wait a few weeks while it ferments but there are a handful of recipes on youtube that will show you how to make it. The best, in my opinion, has red onion in it. :)
Simple Daily Recipes Jill, here's a recipe I use for Bavarian Kraut. I increased the amount of caraway seeds because I gotta have lots of them in my kraut. It just doesn't taste right without them. Anyway, here you go. This is a smaller recipe and you just need a quart sized mason jar. If you want more, get bigger jars. If you decide to ferment in mason jars I have two tips for you. Buy some glass crock weights for mason jars. You can get them on amazon. Second, don't invest in the silly, kraut covers for your mason jars to claim to make kraut in six days or less. They are a joke. You can make them in your mason jar with the standard lid that comes with them but there's a trick to it. When you go to put on the lid, reverse the inside disc so that the sealer part is facing upwards. Do this to keep from having an explosion. And don't tighten the ring completely because the kraut will bubble and rise and it has to be able to release those gasses. If it's too tight then you'll have an explosion. Lastly, no matter how many jars your use, put them on a plate. You need a place for those drips to land, right? :) Without further adieu, here's my favourite recipe for Bavarian kraut. 8-10 cups shredded cabbage, loosely packed (about 2 lbs), about 1 cabbage Red Onion 1/2 10 juniper berries 1 TB caraway seeds 1 tsp. yellow mustard seeds 2 TB un-iodized or pickling salt 1 c. filtered water mixed with 1 tsp. salt Preparation: In a clean, non-metallic bowl, mix cabbage, juniper berries, caraway, mustard seeds, and salt. Stir cabbage to release juices. Let rest 10 minutes then mix again. You may let this rest longer (1-2 hours) if needed. Sterilize jar and lid by boiling for several minutes in water and draining on a clean dishcloth. Pack into a sterilized quart-sized, wide-mouthed jar, pushing down with a wooden mallet. Add filtered, or non-chlorinated, salty (1 teaspoon salt per cup of water) water to rim of jar and cap loosely with a sterilized canning lid. Place jar on a tray to catch overflowing juices. Keep jar between 65°F and 72°F for 2-3 weeks. After bubbling stops, check container and top off with salty (1 teaspoon salt per cup of water, warm slightly to dissolve completely) water if level falls below rim. Skim any (harmless) white spots or film from the top, close jar tightly, wipe off outside of jar and store in the refrigerator until you use it up. More: German sauerkraut is made using salt, whereas Kimchi is made with rice wine. Both create a favourable environment for fermentation. Canned sauerkraut should be rinsed in a colander prior to eating, to reduce the briny flavor, but fresh sauerkraut does not have to be. Sauerkraut may be eaten raw, as a garnish or salad, or cooked, with apples, and onions. It is low in calories and high in beneficial bacteria.
***** Copied and pasted! I can't say when I'm going to make my own kraut, but I promise I will certainly follow your fine recipe to do it. THANK YOU THANK YOU for taking the time to write it out and include your experience and tips along with it. ((BIG HUG))
Simple Daily Recipes Jill how did you transition to no oil/fat? That is one of the hardest things for me to do. I could be Vegan until pigs fly but honey not using any oil is like asking me to sacrifice my son. Ain't gonna happen, LOL!!!!!! *in my North Carolina voice* LMBO!!!!
LOL I started with learning to water fry when tenderizing onions, garlic, celery, and the likes, at the beginning of a recipe. Two to four tablespoons, enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Imagine the water is oil and cook the veggies as normal. When the pan runs dry, and it will before the onions turn translucent, add 2-3 more tablespoons. If you've walked away and come back to sticky veggies in the pan, no worry. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water and stir. Pan and veggies clean right up. As for baking, stuff like applesauce, mashed banana, puree pumpkin, silken tofu, even water will add the moisture to baked goods like oil does. When it comes to good old cookies whose recipe starts with a cup of vegan margarine, I haven't found an oil-free substitute. You'll have to decide to never make them again or limit baking them to special occasions, like someone's birthday. I avoid making raw foods and desserts with coconut oil. Oil is oil is oil. I still keep a dairy-free margarine (Smart Balance Light with Flax oil) in the ice box. That's for the kids to put on their cornbread. Hubby and I don't eat it. I keep a jar coconut oil on hand, but not to eat. It makes an excellent moisturizer for my face, neck, chest and elbow. And it's wonderful for preventing scaly dry shins after shaving legs. There you go. That's how I roll.
Simple Daily Recipes initially did you miss the taste of fat/oil? Like I can go with out actively having oil in my food for maybe a week and then I have a craving for like a good ol oily grilled cheese or crispy southern fried tofu (Girl my southern fried tofu is DELISH who needs a chicken, LMBO!!!!) I try to bake fries and etc - but sometimes that hot oil be calling my name like crack -- LOL!!! I can hear it saying my name in the pops of oil, heee heeee!!!! Raises hand, "Hi Jill, I am an oil addict" LMBO!!!!! hahhahaaaaa
***** You are hilarious! To say, I've NEVER missed fat's powerful pull, would be a lie. Now, I'm not a "fat-free" gal. I still drizzle cashew cream on my plate when it's called for in a recipe. I use cashews to cream up cheese sauces. And about twice a month, if they're on sale, I'll pick up an avocado from the store. As for the greasiness of oils, I definitely do not miss it. We've gone without greasy foods for so long now that our tummy's get upset when we eat it. Even my teen son avoids greasy foods because they upset his stomach. He admits fried fries from a burger stand only taste good when he's noshing on them, then a half hour later, he's eating candied ginger to settle his stomach.
Ma'am, I am going to submit some unrequested constructive criticism, but first, I would like to say that I think your channel is rad, especially the videos that feature the Instant Pot. I just recently received one, and they are great. The baby talk has to go though. You are a grown woman with a family, and in my humble opinion, you are severely taking away from an otherwise great channel. My guess is an awful lot of people think the same thing, but just don't want to tell you. Go ahead and keep on autotuning the snot out of your voice, keep on dancing, and keep up the corny jokes. just drop the baby talk. Please and Thank You.
okay I'm pretty convinced that the only reason you've got the four thumbs down is because they were jealous of how good your food looks and how cute you and your husband are together
I just made this. I heard a choir of angel's singing as I ate it. This might be the best sandwich I've ever had. Thanks for sharing!
+Susan Johnson Amen, Sister!
Awesome video Jill! The best part was you and hubby talking and eating together! Awesome!! Keep rocking out the great videos! :D
Sherismiley Thank you, Sheri!
My husband loved this sandwich and he even liked the sauce, I am told to please make again. Thank you Jil
so I was craving a reuben and thought I'll see what Jill has. Getting ingredient to make this today. yum yum yum Thank you!!!
+Jennifer Taylor These reuben are so so so good. I'm out of kraut. I need to stock up so I can make these again.
I love you guys! Sandwich looks delish and you guy are so real. My husband reacts just like yours...his favorite restaurant to eat at is my kitchen!!! He is always amazed how plant based foods taste so good.
+Mary Beth Hernandez Too bad we're not neighbors, we could rock some plant-based potlucks together.
Righteous ain't even the word. More like epic. BTW, Charlie's shirt? Spot on 👍👍👍
You guys are too cute
You are the best! I am over here laughing at all your comments. Makes my day!
I gotta stop watching your channel when I'm hungry. I want everything!!
It's tough to edit these videos on an empty stomach, too. ;D
Major hit with my family! Everybody loved it! not an easy feat. Thank you!
Those sandwiches are AWESOME!
It’s 2019 hope y’all are still eating good.
That sandwich looks fantastic!
I love the t-shirt your husband is wearing. Did you tell him to wear it or you weren't feeding him? Hahaha! Amazing sandwich. Looks too good, I definitely want to make this.
+ALifeInTransition I bought the shirt, but he wears it proudly on his own. He's a good man ;D
Fantastic! ❤️

I will make this tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe. :)

Update: I ate "The Righteous Reuben" sandwich and that was good. I never eat Reuben sandwiches before until now. Thanks for the recipe. Whooboo!!
MC9337 Thank you for the recipe update! I'm so glad you liked it, too. Did you watch the after show?

Just found your channel & so glad I did!!! That sandwich looked amazing :)
Kelly Chaffee HELLO! I'm so glad you found me.. You gotta make that sandwich it is truly the best sandwich I shoved in my pie hole in a long time.
I always used to ask my mom to cut my sandwich diagonally as a kid because you get more sandwich! Haha
Definitely will try and thanks for sharing.....
Ronnette Mckinnis Great, let me know how it turns out for you.
It took me a while to get the tempeh, make the bacon with it and them finally make these Righteous Reubens but it was so worth the wait! Bob, my hubby, and I both were so busy eating we couldn't stop to talk. I didn't have pickle relish and I used my homemade mayo substitute which is tangy and it worked well. I will be making them again soon. I rarely eat sandwiches but with all the tomatoes and basil in the garden this time of year we eat more sandwiches. Wanna BLTs are next up on the lunch special menu.
Terry Brown Oh I'd like to have a little garden next year. I have fun with growing sweet tomatoes and herbs. Nothing says summer like a window seal lined with tomatoes.
I had a vegan Reuben at a restaurant recently and it was soooo good. Been craving it ever since! Definitely going to try this recipe at home!
I made this today for father's day lunch. HUGE hit with me, him, and our 2 girls who are 6 (twins) One said "these are just delicious, just delicious!" Yes this will be a staple sandwich for sure. Thank you!

I have the book! Yummy! Can't wait to try this!
it's a GREAT book!
Hey Jill! I got the book! I haven't had a chance to make the Reuben yet but didja see page 109? I sense an Instapot conversion recipe :-)

how about sour kraut in a scalloped potato recipe, or incorporate it into a spinach/artichoke dip.

This looks so good! I don't have any sauerkraut or I would make this right now. Have you ever made your own sauerkraut? It is so yummy. Fermented foods provide us with natural pro-biotics that keep our immune system healthy. I learned from the book "The Art of Fermentation" by Sandor Katz. It is a great cookbook and teaches how to make tempeh and miso from scratch.

SHOUT OUT TO THE COOLEST MAN IN TEXAS!
Jill, please don't buy sauerkraute. Kraut is one of the easiest ferments to make. Sure, you have to wait a few weeks while it ferments but there are a handful of recipes on youtube that will show you how to make it. The best, in my opinion, has red onion in it. :)
***** Do you have a particular recipe you like to follow? Steer me in the right direction.
Simple Daily Recipes Jill, here's a recipe I use for Bavarian Kraut. I increased the amount of caraway seeds because I gotta have lots of them in my kraut. It just doesn't taste right without them. Anyway, here you go. This is a smaller recipe and you just need a quart sized mason jar. If you want more, get bigger jars. If you decide to ferment in mason jars I have two tips for you. Buy some glass crock weights for mason jars. You can get them on amazon. Second, don't invest in the silly, kraut covers for your mason jars to claim to make kraut in six days or less. They are a joke. You can make them in your mason jar with the standard lid that comes with them but there's a trick to it. When you go to put on the lid, reverse the inside disc so that the sealer part is facing upwards. Do this to keep from having an explosion. And don't tighten the ring completely because the kraut will bubble and rise and it has to be able to release those gasses. If it's too tight then you'll have an explosion. Lastly, no matter how many jars your use, put them on a plate. You need a place for those drips to land, right? :) Without further adieu, here's my favourite recipe for Bavarian kraut.
8-10 cups shredded cabbage, loosely packed (about 2 lbs), about 1 cabbage
Red Onion 1/2
10 juniper berries
1 TB caraway seeds
1 tsp. yellow mustard seeds
2 TB un-iodized or pickling salt
1 c. filtered water mixed with 1 tsp. salt
Preparation:
In a clean, non-metallic bowl, mix cabbage, juniper berries, caraway, mustard seeds, and salt. Stir cabbage to release juices. Let rest 10 minutes then mix again. You may let this rest longer (1-2 hours) if needed.
Sterilize jar and lid by boiling for several minutes in water and draining on a clean dishcloth.
Pack into a sterilized quart-sized, wide-mouthed jar, pushing down with a wooden mallet. Add filtered, or non-chlorinated, salty (1 teaspoon salt per cup of water) water to rim of jar and cap loosely with a sterilized canning lid. Place jar on a tray to catch overflowing juices. Keep jar between 65°F and 72°F for 2-3 weeks.
After bubbling stops, check container and top off with salty (1 teaspoon salt per cup of water, warm slightly to dissolve completely) water if level falls below rim. Skim any (harmless) white spots or film from the top, close jar tightly, wipe off outside of jar and store in the refrigerator until you use it up.
More: German sauerkraut is made using salt, whereas Kimchi is made with rice wine. Both create a favourable environment for fermentation. Canned sauerkraut should be rinsed in a colander prior to eating, to reduce the briny flavor, but fresh sauerkraut does not have to be. Sauerkraut may be eaten raw, as a garnish or salad, or cooked, with apples, and onions. It is low in calories and high in beneficial bacteria.
***** Copied and pasted! I can't say when I'm going to make my own kraut, but I promise I will certainly follow your fine recipe to do it. THANK YOU THANK YOU for taking the time to write it out and include your experience and tips along with it. ((BIG HUG))
Try making your creamy sauerkraut by using avocado, olive oil and shredded cabbage.
Simple Daily Recipes Jill how did you transition to no oil/fat? That is one of the hardest things for me to do. I could be Vegan until pigs fly but honey not using any oil is like asking me to sacrifice my son. Ain't gonna happen, LOL!!!!!! *in my North Carolina voice* LMBO!!!!
LOL I started with learning to water fry when tenderizing onions, garlic, celery, and the likes, at the beginning of a recipe. Two to four tablespoons, enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Imagine the water is oil and cook the veggies as normal. When the pan runs dry, and it will before the onions turn translucent, add 2-3 more tablespoons. If you've walked away and come back to sticky veggies in the pan, no worry. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water and stir. Pan and veggies clean right up.
As for baking, stuff like applesauce, mashed banana, puree pumpkin, silken tofu, even water will add the moisture to baked goods like oil does.
When it comes to good old cookies whose recipe starts with a cup of vegan margarine, I haven't found an oil-free substitute. You'll have to decide to never make them again or limit baking them to special occasions, like someone's birthday.
I avoid making raw foods and desserts with coconut oil. Oil is oil is oil.
I still keep a dairy-free margarine (Smart Balance Light with Flax oil) in the ice box. That's for the kids to put on their cornbread. Hubby and I don't eat it.
I keep a jar coconut oil on hand, but not to eat. It makes an excellent moisturizer for my face, neck, chest and elbow. And it's wonderful for preventing scaly dry shins after shaving legs.
There you go. That's how I roll.
Simple Daily Recipes initially did you miss the taste of fat/oil? Like I can go with out actively having oil in my food for maybe a week and then I have a craving for like a good ol oily grilled cheese or crispy southern fried tofu (Girl my southern fried tofu is DELISH who needs a chicken, LMBO!!!!) I try to bake fries and etc - but sometimes that hot oil be calling my name like crack -- LOL!!! I can hear it saying my name in the pops of oil, heee heeee!!!!
Raises hand, "Hi Jill, I am an oil addict" LMBO!!!!! hahhahaaaaa
***** You are hilarious! To say, I've NEVER missed fat's powerful pull, would be a lie. Now, I'm not a "fat-free" gal. I still drizzle cashew cream on my plate when it's called for in a recipe. I use cashews to cream up cheese sauces. And about twice a month, if they're on sale, I'll pick up an avocado from the store.
As for the greasiness of oils, I definitely do not miss it. We've gone without greasy foods for so long now that our tummy's get upset when we eat it. Even my teen son avoids greasy foods because they upset his stomach. He admits fried fries from a burger stand only taste good when he's noshing on them, then a half hour later, he's eating candied ginger to settle his stomach.
Ma'am, I am going to submit some unrequested constructive criticism, but first, I would like to say that I think your channel is rad, especially the videos that feature the Instant Pot. I just recently received one, and they are great. The baby talk has to go though. You are a grown woman with a family, and in my humble opinion, you are severely taking away from an otherwise great channel. My guess is an awful lot of people think the same thing, but just don't want to tell you. Go ahead and keep on autotuning the snot out of your voice, keep on dancing, and keep up the corny jokes. just drop the baby talk. Please and Thank You.
J Rrr Thank you for the feedback. You've been heard/read. I appreciate your kindness.
You guys are so cool. I love the Jody Foster vibe you're giving off! Saving so many of these recipes!
okay I'm pretty convinced that the only reason you've got the four thumbs down is because they were jealous of how good your food looks and how cute you and your husband are together
+Raw Trucker Lady I am going to have to agree with you on that! Some people just can't handle the fun and embrace the love ❤️
