- Do you have a picky eater(s) in your household? If so, I hope this video will give you at least ONE new recipe to try that they will approve of. Let me know in the comments what your picky eater doesn't like - give me the list! :) Sometimes the list of what they actually DO like is shorter, so you can give me that one. LOL

My beloved husband does not do vegetables except potatoes and corn. He also eats nothing that lives in the water. I grew up spending my summers on Cape Cod and my dad was an avid fisherman and we ate every kind of vegetable there is. After 30 years together, we have compromised to some extent - I refuse to cook without onions and mushrooms and even though he still complains about them, he has accepted that he can just pick them out if he wants. There are so very many delicious recipes that I cannot make because of his aversion to produce, but I give him fresh fruit of some kind everyday because he does enjoy eating that and I want him to get some kind of roughage in his diet. It gets frustrating sometimes, but each to his own. It’s a small price for being blessed to be able to share my life with a wonderful man, even though he’s a picky eater!
I feel you, sista! My husband is the same!
Same here. Although, he will eat onions and peppers.
I have an adult son who eats the exact samething for vegetables. Won't eat tomatoes, but will eat pizza sauce on his pizzas. It all depends on texture, no onions or garlic, so I use onion & garlic powder.
He's a grown man. Let him decided and if there are consequences, well so be it.
"My beloved husband does not do vegetables except potatoes and corn. He also eats nothing that lives in the water." That's mine too. He will eat salad and "might" force a green bean. Notice I said A green bean. He could live on fast food hamburgers, chick-fil-a, and Domino's, with Taco Bell being his favorite. Oh, we love em don't we!
My husband is a pain in the rear. He refuses cream cheese in meals but get this, I use it and he doesnt know and ABSOLUTELY LOVES the meals its in. Examples....John Wayne casserole, parmeasan chicken.pasta, baked spaghetti, and plenty more....says hes allergic to onions, hes not. I use onions real small cut in almost everything, onion powder, chives, again he doesnt get sick and loves it. He hates mac and cheese.....
LOL - he and Steven are twins with the cream cheese thing. :)
lol…my Grandma would always say she was allergic to onions, but I always put onions in everything and she never once got sick. I miss her.
You sound like my mom and I! My dad says he doesn’t eat cottage cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, Ranch, etc because it’s “rotten milk”. My mom and I both would sneak it into things when I lived at home/holiday cooking together and we used to sit back and 😉.
My dad will eat most anything, but he's 90 and tries to compare EVERYTHING to something he had in 1940 or so. So most things simply don't evoke the exact "taste memory " he wants, so he grumbles. Now, someone tell me how to get around that. Ugh!
I have 3 kids, one doesn't like many veggies, one doesn't like meat, the third thankfully eats anything, but my husband doesn't do carbs! I've found that making "build your own" type dinners are lifesavers. Tacos, chili bowls, pasta with different sauce and veggie/meat topping options, let everyone make a plate that they will enjoy :)
So smart! And you don't have to cook multiple meals.
Had to comment on this ... I was born in Memphis, TN to parents raised in Mississippi on farms. I grew up eating soul food and all organic (home grown) produce & fruit, grass fed organic meats and wild game that was hunted and fished. My husband was born in Mexico and prefers the authentic Mexican food he was raised on (no Tex-Mex with all the cheese). He does not even like cornbread dressing at Thanksgiving as they don't have Thanksgiving in Mexico so Turkey was his Christmas meal celebrated on the 24th not the 25th. I could eat seafood every single day (I lived in FL) but he is not a seafood fan as his hometown is not near the ocean so he didn't grow up eating it. I could go on and on but will just say at this point we hardly ever eat the same thing. I cook and he cooks and we rarely go out for dinner. Love from our 5 cats to Gracie.
Put the Fritos on the top. Use some guacamole instead of avocado, if not ripe. I usually put rice in the bowl first, then everything Mandy used. But as I said I put the Fritos on top, then they are crispy.
Im so grateful. My children were not picky eaters. To this day, they eat very well. I couldn't imagine cooking various meals for picky eaters.
This next comment may strike a nerve, but i came from a big family. My mother didn't have time to make different foods to picky eaters. You ate what she made, or you excused yourself from the table. And no, you ate nothing for the night. Not even peanut butter sandwiches.
House Rules. It didn't kill me. What it taught me was to be grateful to have food to eat.
I have an extremely picky eater in my house! He’s severely autistic and has his handful of things that he will eat. Some of the things you did look similar tho so maybe with a little tweaking I can get him to try some new things. Basically I get around it by calling pickles and ketchup a vegetable in my house 😂😂😂and he loves all fruit so I know he’s getting something healthy! I love watching yall! Been watching religiously for about 3 years now and your recipes have helped be able to learn to cook!!! My family watches too and is so very thankful to yall for the better dinners than what they used to get!!!😂
My stepson is 21 and autistic. He isn't picky at all unless his dad says he doesn't like something, then he won't touch it. Like greens. I can't get either one of them to eat anything with spinach or greens unless I hide it in the food and don't tell them. Otherwise I hardly ever have leftovers. Maybe you could try that.
My Son is Autistic. He won't eat bacon. He loves mashed potatoes but won't eat French fries
There are certain autistic medications that mess with the appetite. They may be hungry at different times then you. My nephew sits with us at dinner, if he doesn't eat, it is left for later. He usually will graze later, he won't ignore the hunger pangs. He does very well with heavy protein in the evening.
I’m in the same boat. All my kid will eat is chicken strips that we have to order in bulk from a restaurant.
My 12 year old granddaughter is also autistic & extremely picky. I will try these.
Hi Mandy! Since my husband 26 years, together 28, had cancer in 2012, he can't handle and oils ,butter, or sauces. It is very tricky. All you cooks slather all in olive oil or butter. He is the love of my life. Blessed, the Lord saved me by saving him.
Enjoy watching you.💜💜💜
We experienced homelessness. & I told the kids you can eat it hot and fresh today or cold and stale tomorrow. Now I understand some people just don't like certain things ( I don't like oysters sardines) my sister has picky kids I'm glad I didn't.
I thank my lucky stars my kids were easy to please.
I had a theory, totally unproven of course, when pregnant, I ate things like peas, broccoli & carrots (etc + lots of stuff) so she would have the tastebuds someday to receive it. I was a single Mom so every Thurs was Family Nite, where I would make dinner & we ate by candlelight & symphony music in the background, then as she was tiny I would get on my hands & knees too & make pretend I was a lion chasing her. So many great memories. Maybe it helped bc she loves more foods than I do today as an adult woman, like .... sushi. 🤮🤣
Praise God u got thru homelessness - I understand poverty well, not receiving child support, handling life alone, etc. It's just inches away many times. Thank u for sharing ur story, it's an important one to tell. I bet ur an awesome Mom! ❤️
How funny! Gracie likes to steal the limelight. I crack up laughing every time! Gracie is so adorable. You guys are just an adorable family. ❤
As an empty nester I am new to the picky eaters club. Our children have been grown and gone for a decade and a half. Health issues have recently limited my husband's ability to tolerate certain foods. He cannot (or does not want) onions, tomatoes, cheese, a lot of spice, cholesterol......the list goes on and on. I am feeling the frustration. Let's just say I truly look forward to my frequent luncheons and dinners with my girl friends.
Let him cook his own meals.
Onions, tomatoes and peppers are the biggest offender in my house for my picky eater. Most recipes I use onion powder or dried onion flakes in place of the onion that is called for. It's the texture she doesn't like. Then veggies are a hard one -- she likes about 3 veggies. lol!! I try to stay away from all-in-one meals like casseroles or one pot that include the veggies she doesn't like -- or keep them separate so we can enjoy.
If there in a sauce....put'em in the blender...so no see'ems
I was shredding cheese this morning and a piece fell on the floor. It made me think of Gracie, who I know would have enjoyed it!
When I have an unripe avocado , I cut it in half remove the seed and pop it in the microwave for a minute or so. Softens it up every time 😊
Good to know! 🙂
Wow, thanks for that tip! I never knew that! ❤
That was a great question to ask us. My mom moved in with me after my dad passed away and I do all the cooking for her, so I had to beef up my cooking skills for her, which is why I come to these recipe videos. She is so picky when it comes to seasonings. She is a very bland eater, so I have to sneak things in and not tell her and she'll end up enjoying the meal. She hates anything spicy, but I have used creole seasoning in a few dishes and she never said a word. I have to pick and choose your recipes, knowing whether she would like it or not. I like them all! Thanks for sharing these recipes with us!
My parents liked bland food too! I relate to your comment. I also sneaked in other ingredients & they ate most of it!😅😊
The elderly lose there taste buds so they need the spices to flavor their food….i personally didnt like spicy hot food,but now at 60 like med salsa, using red pepper flakes franks sauce and ceyiene pepper[spelled wrong]…..lol….love the new wcdonalds nugget sauce
Aww ,Gracie Lou you got your own way with that cheese.. keep meowing 🙂
That Boursin Chicken is a HUGE favorite in our house! And yes, it is excellent on pork chops! As for what else you can use Boursin cheese on, I use it with penne pasta with broccoli and I even use it as a ricotta substitute in lasagna! Try the Boursin fig and balsamic cheese on pork…delicious! The Boursin caramelized onion is really good on beef and the Boursin basil and chive is great on pasta.
Oh WOW, that Pork Recipe sounds divine! I never knew they had Fig & Balsamic + do u use it on Pork Tenderloin Medalions?
I cannot afford Boursin. It is delicious.
Oh my goodness. Husband is rare meat with the blood running. Kids are like cook that meat until there's no blood. One kid only likes beans in his chili, the other does not like chili and the hubby wants it not soupy but full of meat.
Me, I could just eat veggies all the time. Now, kids are grown and we still all struggle to sit down together and eat the same thing. When I was growing up if you didn't eat what was put I. Front of you, you went to bed hungry. Thank goodness I liked all my moms cooking except fried chicken liver and English peas --- just the smell of that would have me gagging. Love y'all.
Would love to see you and Stephen do a devotional series together. Would be awesome ❤
Hey, I would love a devotional too + great idea! We need more focus on the Lord these days! ❤
I am the picky eater in this house, I am also the cook though. I have sensory issues with textures and I don't like what I don't like and changing my mind is hard.
The boursin cheese sauce is great with shrimp and served over pasta. Of course you will need to make extra sauce if you put it on pasta.
One of my daughter's doesn't like tomato or onion, items I love to cook with. The texture of both bothers her so I tried onion powder and she had no problem and I blend canned tomatoes smooth. So I get the flavour I love and she is happy!
Mandy, I appreciate so much that you try to satisfy the "picky eaters" in the world. But 'my' picky-eater is picky based on his "mood"! He loves to eat a lot of different foods but he is often not in "the mood" for a particular dish. This makes meal planning a nightmare! Many couples will argue about children, money, family issues. My husband and I have had our worst arguments over food! LOL He has pretty much always been a meat-n-taters guy, but I like variety. Luckily for me, your recipes have satisfied BOTH our preferences on more than one occassion. THANK YOU SO MUCH for your videos! They keep us all happily fed!
It's absolutely CRAZY how I can creatively hide something in a meal they don't like and have it requested over and over again 🤷♂
LOL
I used to hide pureed butternut squash in my Mac and cheese, my kids loved it.
After a while we become pros. My mini food processor has been a great help! 😉
My son Zach was the pickiest eater. He still doesn’t like Mexican or anything spicy at age 27. But he would eat most of these for sure! Great video
I don't necessarily have a picky eater. I have two teenagers that have completely different food preferences. I love it when both of them enjoy the same dishes; it makes life easier. I am going to try these dishes. Thank you Mandy.
My picky eater is my husband and he never used to be but since he's gotten older he's gone off things, he won't eat anything in a cream sauce, he no longer eats veg, only brussel sprouts, he's not keen on anything with sausages in it, he's gone off eggs, he likes cheese but not in a meal to name but a few lol. He used to love beref stroganoff and now he won't eat it 🥲. Thank you for sharing xxx
Absolutely love you and your husband and your sons dynamic, it is quite amazing, I am so excited to make some of these recipes, my youngest is extremely picky, she just started eating different meats, but won’t touch a vegetable, no matter what I do to it, my son Likes pretty much anything and everything at this point, thank goodness for that, my other daughter is in the middle, she definitely likes different things, but she is still picky with the different vegetables she’ll touch, I am absolutely looking forward to the last chicken dish you made, as I was watching, I did a small Walmart delivery order to includes that cheese lol, can’t wait to see what you have next
We love Gracie so very, very, much. Treat her well, like we know you do. Been looking for you all week & so glad you're back today.
😂 my kitty Miss Debbie was sleeping in my lap when I watched this. She jumped up looking for Gracie when she was asking for cheese. Kitties are so sweet. 😊
Oh that is so cute!! Kitties are so sweet!!
I have 3 Rescue Kitties 😸 💕
Hi Mandy!❤ my husband is the picky eater in my home! He is a strictly meat and potatoes guy but I have made a recipe book of all your recipes completely dedicated to you! You have given me so much inspiration! My husband is loving the food I have been cooking!!
That is so sweet!
@MandyintheMaking I've done same thing. I have made a Journal of your recipes to make when I get my Kitchen back!!!
Can't wait for Hubby's reaction. We make 18yrs together on March 18, 2024
Our picky eater is very special. He is our 6 tear old grandson who has sensory issues and adhd. He doesn't like any foods with sauces. No condiments either. He does like tacos though.
Sweet Gracie! Bless her heart ❤❤!!
My son was picky when he was younger but now he’s really good about eating almost anything. It’s just my husband and I at home now. My husband hates okra I love it. He’s not a fan of soups or stews I love them. He hates coconut and yep I love it. He’s allergic to mushrooms I love them. I’m allergic to fresh strawberries but if they have been processed in anyway I can eat them. Weird. We’re pretty much total opposites but we don’t argue or fight and we’ve been together for almost 30 years. Neither one of us can eat spicy food so I make your recipes for us wimps lol. Thank you for sharing.
No picky eaters here. I have chili in the crockpot for tonights dinner and my avocados are too hard also! All of these looked delicious!
My Husband is the picky eater. He's a meat and potatoes kind of guy and I'm not. I have some food sensitivities and stomach issues in general. I have to be careful with what I eat. He would not eat the same things as me so I'm usually cooking two different meals at night, it's a pain. I do sneak in gluten free pasta and ground chicken instead of beef on occasion, and he doesn't seem to notice. Love your videos Mandy.
No picky eaters in our house...you have 2 choices..take it or leave it..😂😂
Absolutely. My mom was the best cook ever but when she made dinner & if you didn't like it, make yourself a sandwich. I'm most grateful for that because now there's not a whole lot I won't eat..... except mushrooms 😝 blech!!!
😊
Same here. I started my son very young with eating a variety of things. Also, to eat what is made.
He eats everything except mushrooms. He tried them raw, cooked, fresh, canned, etc and just doesn't like them. He gave them a good try, so I accept that.
This is how I was raised and my siblings and I eat everything. 🤷🏻♀️ You just have to be a parent and give discipline and rules.
If you have a hand held milk frother, you can use it to mix the cornstarch slurry. So much easier and makes it so smooth
Although I and my better half grew up in the same town, our food choices couldn't be more different.
I'll eat practically anything but liver & onions, anchovies, snails.....
He won't do any meat on the bone ( bad under cooked meat experience), asparagus, mushrooms, organ meats, and most seafood except fish. It ends up being a lot of repeats, noodles and sauce, meat and rice, tacos, pizza, and burgers. If I want a specialty item, it's usually on my lunch from work.
Love the recipes even if no picky eaters. .thanks Mandy...
My hubby is the picky eater in the family. He doesn’t like a lot of spices in his prepared food. Definite no to crockpot meals. He is happy with steak and potatoes, hamburgers and fries. He does like my enchiladas. Pretty much it’s a hit or miss with him. Thank God for my stepson! He eats 99.9 percent of what I put in front of him! I am DEFINITELY trying these recipes keeping my fingers crossed he’ll like them. ( hubby does love the French onion chicken I learned from this channel!)
OH Mandy, you are blessed. I have two autistic sons and at the time the husband was also odd on what he would eat. I usually cooked three meals every night. One for the older son and husband, one for the youngest and one for me( if i had enough energy). (I was usually on a diet). The first two would eat hamburger helper every night. No onions, mushrooms or other veggies, The youngest would eat macaroni and cheese, chicken nuggets and baloney (not at the same time.) I like veggies and light food like salad. So it was culinary chaos. We all lived and survived. The boys are grown and on their own. I have a new husband who is almost perfect and not picky about his food. I really enjoy watching Steven's faces when he tastes the food. Also sweet Gracie is so darling. Keep up the good work. That Boursin cheese is awesome. Try it in mashed potatoes.
Our son was very picky. He would even wipe off his fork between bites. He has grown up and eats a wide variety variety of foods that surprises me.
All recipes are perfection! I now have them to feed when picky grandbabies come to Nanas for dinner! Thanks Mandy you are a godsend!
You have a Hexclad pan! I LOVE my Hexclad pots. I'm saving for the pans next! ❤
This was the Gracie show for sure. So fun. Thank you for the recipes.
Yes it was!
I gained 20 lbs just watching this but I'm not complaining. I will be making every single one of these meals for my family ❤😂 yummm
Hey sweet friend, they all looked delicious!! I'm going to try the beef stroganoff. Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes with us. Give Gracie some love and cheese from me. Sending blessings to you and your beautiful family.
When my two children were younger one refused to eat vegetables and one refused to eat meat. They are a bit older now and with time they have expanded their taste buds but it was tricky trying to find a balance in the beginning. Love your recipes. I find that they are very family friendly and easy to adjust for those picky palates❤️
Loved seeing Gracie circling. We have three cats and when they are doing this we call it ‘sharking’. 😊
Oh, and the dishes look great. Must try the cheeseburger casserole!!
Gracie going round & round and your laughing had me laughing too!
They all look delicious! Thanks Mandy!
I'm happy Steven liked the boursin cheese because it's made with cream cheese.
It’s only my husband and me. He’s a little picky, but not much. I’ll be making all of these recipes. Thanks for your hard work.
I actually make beef stroganoff with chicken broth when I make the sauce. When I braise it on the stove I make the beef in beef broth, but dont use the liquid to make the sauce. Sounds strange but it’s a family favorite and just made it Sunday ❤❤
I will definitely try the first 4…they look delicious. The Boursin Chicken is already in our meal rotation and I do boneless pork chops in the same sauce! I could eat the entire “round” of cheese or “drink” that sauce.
These look awesome! My 13 yr old daughter is autistic. She has like a max of 10 foods she will eat. It’s hard. The other is my almost 50 year old hubby. Will eat very few veggies. I love them!
Hi, It's me, I am the picky eater in the family and also the cook, the wife and the mom who pushes her kids to eat the healthy versions! I don't like raw or cooked veggies in my meals and if I use onions they have to be super finely chopped so they basically disappear. But I will make me a separate dish so everyone else can enjoy the true recipe and flavors, it's not fair for them to suffer because I am the weirdo lol. However, depending on the meal, I will eat spinach or kale in some dishes, like Zuppa Toscana, yes please and thank you all day long! I love watching your videos and feel like you are my neighbor sometimes as I live in Rabun County, Georgia! Have you ever been here? xoxo, Jessica
I'm blessed to have no picky eaters. We're willing to try new things all the time. That might be why our spice collection has developed a life of it's own. BTW, we tried a baked potato in the air fryer yesterday. 40 minutes and done! It was perfect. It will now be how we cook them. So much faster and as you said the texture was perfect.
Yay! I'm so glad it worked for you, too!
First, I like to try new recipes. Hence the reasson I love your channel! ❤ My son has one of two comments on anything I make - it's either, "It's okay" (which means he likes it) or, "Never make this again". I've gotten the latter on one or two of your recipes which I loved, but he didn't! His favorite protein is chicken and he would eat that all the time. Although I try to cater to his tastes, I can't eat chicken all the time so, I try to change things up and that does not always meet with his approval. Needless to say, he likes what he likes and anything else, he doesn't. Just so you know, he's given an "It's okay" to a few of your chicken recipes I've tried.
I am the picky eater here 😁 for me, it's mostly about texture. If something is too soft, I just can't eat it ( like a soft roll or pasta cooked twice like in a casserole). To be honest, I probably wouldn't make a lot of your recipes, but I definitely enjoy watching you all enjoy your meals! I love seeing Laura Lynn products!
My late husband said nothing with ketsup, mustard, mayo, or any cr. of soups. He would eat salmon out of the can but no patty's. I thought since he liked it from the can I would make the patty's, he said he would not eat them. I thought he was kidding. Nope. He liked hb helper though. Most of what I made he would eat. Gracie is so purrdy. Luv her antics.
I'm the picky eater: no uncooked tomatoes. I will use cooked/canned tomatoes in recipes but no fresh tomatoes.
Right on! Tomatoes are not done inside…
That was me as a child. Then when I graduated from college & moved back home for awhile, well, my dad had a huge crop of fresh tomatoes, & I could not get enough of them! I still look for all of the fresh homegrown tomatoes & relish each one!😅
Yay new recipes to write down.thanks for all the recipes❤
All those meals look so yummy. Thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤
I love the Boursin chicken….i added spinach & cherry tomatoes to the sauce and it was yummy….
His name is Talkeetna..🐕..I have just added his cooking preferences to the over all house hold menu. He loves broccoli....😉..who knew!..I'm just finding out that this has been where the husband's portion is going...🙃🤐
I'm the picky eater in my house. Among many things that I won't eat, cheese is at the top of the list. The only recipe that I would eat out of these five is the Frito Taco Bowl because I can leave out the cheese. Some recipes I can easily leave out the cheese but many, such as these other four would not be possible. Love your videos!
Mandy these were incredible! THANK YOU ALL ❤ I will be trying them all. 👍👍👍
When my husband was a child, he had a sensitive stomach, so he was raised on a very basic/bland diet. When I met him, he ate chocolate, things that could be cooked in a Fry Daddy or microwave, and washed it all down with Mtn Dew. I made him try new things and he enjoyed my cooking. Now, he's soda free, and as his taste buds changed from his chemo treatments, he survives on cereal, fruit, granola and yogurt, or bologna sandwich with an occasional home cooked meal thrown in. He can't do anything too spicy or too seasoned any more. He does enjoy some of the "Mandy recipes" I've tried, so that's a good thing. :)
Yum these all look so good can't wait to try them 😊
They all sound amazing!! Thank you 😊
Good afternoon Mandy and Steven and thank you for sharing your yummy meals
Everything looks delicious! Can’t wait to try them all!! 😋
Yay! Thank you!
everybody in the house are picky eaters 🤣 dinner time is ummm....entertaining at the least
I'm the picky eater. My husband will eat things even though it is EXPIRED!!!! 🤢He's weird. I won't eat certain foods because my dad made us eat things we didn't like. I don't like onions, but will eat onion rings. I don't cook with onions, but will use onion salt. I don't like beets, corned beef hash, eggplant, and green peppers. I'm a very picky eater. I will take a bite of something I've never had before to see if I like it. I didn't like sour cream until you suggested checking out Jessica O'Donohue's channel. Now I love adding sour cream to my dishes. I even love Feta cheese. Thanks for the encouragement to try new things!!!! Hugs to Gracie!!! ❤
I grew up in the 70's and 80's. You ate what you got. Maybe going to bed hungry instead of being coddled would make you a more humble person and appreciate what you have.
If there was an award for best Husband on UA-cam cooking channels Steve would defiinetly win first place.
I agree, although I'm a tad biased. :)
Don’t let him read this his head is already big enough lol
It's my oldest son ...he don't like fresh tomatoes but will eat them cooked (skeeti sauce or sun dried tomatoes) the only condiment he'll eat is ketchup or BBQ sauce 😂😂
I used to be the exact same way. Now I like raw tomatoes better.
Gracie Lou you are so adorable! ❤️ keep meowing! ❤
Well, we all know Gracie is not picky about her cheese! I'm a single elderly man that is very picky. Add what I like and remove what I don't like. That Fritos Taco Bowl is the type of meal I like. I will be making that one very soon. I've done several of your recipes and they turned out great. Thanks for the videos.
I truly don't understand "picky eater". Never been hungry a day in their life. You eat what someone went to the trouble to purchase and or prepare for you or you can go hungry. End of story.
Amen! My niece has decided that she is vegan....but she eats turkey. Could somebody please tell her 🦃 turkey is not a vegetable 😅.
I love every one of your videos!! My daughter and I love every veggie out there and my son and husband are straight meat and potatoes, the struggle is real! I’ve gotten so many ideas watching you, thank you for what you do, God Bless
All meals amazing thanks for sharing!👍❤️😋
Oh my goodness, the recipes you show always sound amazing. We don't have any picky eaters at my house now that the boys are all grown and gone.
Everything looks delicious! If it has cheese its definitely a winner! I'm surprised we're not a bunch of stopped up people! Lol! Have a blessed week! 💕
Your first 2 recipes had me laughing. One of my picky eaters doesn’t like tomatoes and another one doesn’t like Fritos! Guess I’ll try the smoky chicken and stroganoff! 😊
Hi Mandy! I love your channel. Been watching since 2020. Thanks for all your fun, relatable content. My roommate is very picky about everything. But he loves your 4-ingredient sausage muffins. Make them all the time! ❤😂
Oh I'm so glad! Those are a favorite in our house for sure. :)
The website is fantastic!! It’s very user friendly with loads of delicious recipes on it. ❤️
Mandy, you’ve outdone yourself on this video! My husband is so picky and excited to try these recipes. I’m currently 10 weeks pregnant and counting, the food aversions are so real right now. Thank you lots for sharing with us! ❤
These look great! Excited to try!
Wow your guys are really lucky to eat such delicious meals!
My kids were picky eaters. My sons liked few veggies, my daughter loved veggies and would eat only chicken for protein. Now they are grown and eat just about everything. One of my tricks was to use dried minced onions instead of raw. Peanut butter was a staple in our house.
Hi Mandy and Steven, my favorites are the crock pot beef tips and
Borson chicken. Both winner dinners in my house!❤️
Hey Mandy, my darling Mom put everything in front of us as kids and even tried complicated dishes like Beef Wellington and we loved it. Later in life, I've developed a difficult heart condition and kidney issues that lead to Gout flares, so I eat a "low purine" diet. U probably have to look it up, bc some unpredictable foods are high purines like beets, brussel sprouts, asparagus & oatmeal. On the surface they are good for u, but if u ever had Uric Acid Crystals inbedded in ur joints u would say goodbye to those cause-foods in a nano second. I miss them, but not enough to endure losing the whole function of my right arm or leg! I've made peace with the condition & drink Cranberry Juice in water from Trader Joe's everyday now, along with Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar in water. The recipe is 16oz Water + 2-3Tbsp CJ + a sweetener (bc the TJs brand is straight cranberry & slap u across ur face tart), the Recipe for Apple Cider is similar only 16oz Water + 1-2 Tbsp ACV + Sweetener. Be sure to drink each with a straw on a FULL STOMACH bc the acid can eat at tooth enamel & become caustic in ur stomach. Within 48 hours a flare's pain will go down with those 2 drinks. Its been my lifesaver from pain.
I love ur conscientious cooking, u are good about balance with all things, but this is what I have to watch personally. Thanks for these yummy recipes today! Love u guys! 👵🏠🌻🦋🍽💕💕💕
I had no idea oatmeal was a gout trigger! 0_0
@@EmilyGOODEN0UGH I didn't either, until I found a Cleveland Clinic list online. Sure as the world, everything acted up when I ate a concentrated Oat cereal. It makes me so sad bc oatmeal was a fav of mine.
@@EmilyGOODEN0UGH Did u know theres Rx to manage Uric Acid too? It's called Allopurinol, and Dr's freq fail to prescribe it. I went years without even knowing it existed! The range of normal for women is 6 & for men is 7, so higher than that score (& I don't know what the numbers refer to) then u need to start taking Allopurinol slowly like 100mg, then 200mg, then 300mg. If it's super high, apparently Dr's can order an Infusion treatment to get it lower. I've had several family members who went to their Graves never hearing about that drug. Makes me furious & sad too.
@@EmilyGOODEN0UGH Did u know theres actually an Rx that treats Uric Acid called Allopurinol? I went years without even knowing it existed. I have several relatives who went to their Graves without being prescribed it. I have no idea why so many Dr's fail to prescribe it, while a person's joints all get frozen up. The first dose starts at 100mg, then recheck blood in 1 month, if it's not in the range (women need to be at 6 and men at 7) then they up it to 200mg, then in 1 month another blood test for Uric Acid & if still out of range 300mg is prescribed. If it's super bad/high, there's even an Infusion that can be done to lower it in an emergency. I hope u or whoever u know gets this Rx help. Tell them to be ultra careful NOT to take Advil or Aleve bc those 2 drugs are metabolized in the kidneys. A blast of 2/500mg Tylenol works pretty well, & Tylenol is metabolized in the liver. Ur loved one may have Kidney issues that need addressing, bc catching them early is key to avoid huge & costly interventions. Dialysis costs $30,000 for 3 treatments & it's done 3x a week, so do the math. Diet & food is not that special - I'd say goodbye to anything to avoid that cost!
❤ all these! Really good recipes that going have to make!
I have tried some of your recipes, and I must say my family has thoroughly enjoyed them all. I have picky eaters on my home. I will definitely be trying these recipes.
Love you Gracie! Thanks for another great video
These looks so delicious, thanks 👍❤️😘❤️😘
Hi Mandy! My mom watches your vids too but I just want to tell you about my little sister lia who’s a VERY picky eater, she’s 10. She’ll only eat certain brands of food or even condiments. She’ll only eat great value ranch, that’s her favorite ranch. She’ll hardly touch anything that my parents cook. And if she does, it’s something frozen like pizza, chicken nuggets, etc. When she’s hungry, she’ll still deny anything we offer for her to eat. She’ll hardly eat veggies. We’re at a point where we don’t even know what to do for her lol
Gracie cracks me up 😂😂
Just delicious!! Thank you Mandy!! A little more white wine couldn’t hurt😊
