Spilling about 25.2% of the ingredients onto the counter is absolutely essential to a perfect meal. 💜 Love your videos btw!
So true!
I see that all the time…it’s carefully measured but then a bunch falls on the counter..:) lol
I'm Korean and I'm glad your family loves Korean beef! I'd say your recipe is on the right track, I'd say we usually sprinkle sesame at the end than adding to the sauce. We don't use red pepper flakes either, probably some kind of ground chilli instead. But after all, it's your preference! 👍
"The Maple Kind?" I LOVE THAT DOG!!
Since I've been following you, I've tried creating more recipes in my own based on my pantry. My husband flipped for several and asked me to add to our rotation! Thanks for the lessons and humor. 😊
Last week I tried Classico alfredo for the first time. I will use it again. Bowtie (2/3 box) pasta, a cup of chopped frozen broccoli, and some chicken (2 chicken strips cut up)... it was great.
I love browsing back through your videos when I find myself needing inspiration and this one was just what I needed today. Just over an hour in the kitchen and I had tonight’s dinner on the table and the freezer stocked with yummy meals for my family while I’m away next week (I taste tested and these recipes did not disappoint)! My daughter will appreciate her Dad not just feeding her different versions of tacos all week! 😂
Hey Christine - amazing job as always - these recipes look fab! My household is vegetarian and I can still see all these working with protein alternatives 👍😊. Quick tip in case it’s useful - if you’re using a jar of sauce and adding liquid to the mix after, put the liquid (eg milk in the Alfredo recipe) in the jar after you’ve emptied out the sauce and give it a shake or swish and you get more of the sauce out of the jar ☺️. Keep up the good work and have a safe and fun trip 👍
I make a similar tortellini soup with black beans and not the meat.
@Lucy Mitchell . I make a Korean lentil recipe which is similar to her Korean beef . Very delicious 🤤
@@trudydavis4652 ooooo I have lentils to use up. I'd be curious as to your recipie!
@@trudydavis4652 would love to try that recipe if you wouldn't mind sharing please
David Tennant is one of my favorites too! I absolutely love him in Doctor Who!
I just watched See Mindy Mom do her first ever FFM-inspired clearance grocery store haul. Now I'm watching you make more pasta dishes than I've ever seen, so you clearly were influenced by SMM, because she makes pasta at least 2x/wk, lol.
I'm loving the fact I can make that Korean Beef keto style!! Looks so good! Think that's going in my meal prep this week!
I made the taco Alfredo dish today and it was amazingly good. It was also seriously easy. I didn't even feel cooking today and I STILL found it easy. Thank you!
Yay!! Just watched you with Rachel Cruz!! Such a great interview!! Hoping your fan base doubles!! And congrats on paying off your house!! I was waiting for the debt free scream! 😍
Thank you!!
We just made the Korean Beef - do yourself a favor and throw a bunch of frozen stir-fry veggies in there! It would have been pretty plain without it but the veggies took it to the next level! We also added a sliced onion. It was delicious!
I would have put the milk in the Alfredo sauce jar to clean the jar and get everything that was left in it!
Hey Christine! I just wanted thank you so much for the differences you’ve made in my thought processes, in the way I manage my finances, and in my life. I could not use your link for Ibotta because a few years ago, I’d downloaded and signed up, but then I never got in the habit of using it. So, I used it this past week for my shopping. I checked for things that we could get money back on and made a Walmart pick up order. I got 28 dollars back!!!
Now that I know how to store and organize my pantry, thanks to you, I even found the space for 12 boxes of Kraft Velveeta and Shells, 3 bottles of Tequila, and 5 Cadbury bars. I mention these items because I’m a diabetic who doesn’t drink so these will likely stay in my pantry for a very long time. BUT I GOT 28 DOLLARS BACK!
I guess I really didn’t need to buy just to get money back. I could have just not spent the money in the first place.
But I think I missed that video 😊
Thanks Christine for all of the fun, recipes and info. I'm going to try the 25.2% ingredient loss next.
Ive been sick the last week and half and been binge watching your videos. Not only have I bought an airfryer (second hand, of course, not spending too much money) but I started reorganizing my kitchen and pantry. Hopefully I can convince my partner that we should get a big box freezeer😂. Thankyou for keeping me company🙌🙌
😂don’t get sick of me!!
You could even divide up these freezer meals into individual portions for those who live alone, or maybe two people at home. Delicious home cooked meals ready to cook. What do you think? Nice gift for an elderly neighbor, student or family member.
You always have the best budget-friendly recipes! 🍳 It was so generous of you to give a meal to your neighbor.
I'm actually saving all these recipes for my 35-year-old son that cooks for me most of the time they look like recipes that he would use and that he would maybe do in a day or two when he's off work and maybe just have the girls start them in the oven to be ready when he gets home thank you very much Christine
Christine: Thank you so much for the simple recipies! When u showed the Korean beef one I got excited because I knew I had all those ingredients sitting in my pantry/freezer! I ran to pull out some ground beef and then waited around for dinner. It was so simple and easy and fast. I absolutely loathe dinner time and have lots of allergies and sensitivity issues and this dish was a winner all around, even with my four kids under 10. Next time I make it, I want to add some green onion and serve it in a lettuce wrap with the rice too! thank you thank you!
I got my elderly mom Acorn & BritBox, on the ROKU i bought her. She loves it
These look so awesome and I adore Acorn. I have been a subscriber for years and between Acorn and BritBox, my UK fix is satisfied.
Am glad your getting to watch British TV some great TV programmes out there that you will love
I need to make up some of these meals for us to have on hand.
My fave quick freezer recipes are few. I like to use leftover pot roast to make shepherd's pie for the freezer.
cooked chicken and rice, veg, and cream of chicken soup for chicken'n'rice casserole.
Or leftover pot roast beef and veg soup. I freeze that sometimes.
I have made your chicken/ham/broccoli casserole for the freezer and it was yum. I'm going to stretch out the meat more with extra pasta and veg in that one.
That purée or frozen pucks from Trader Joe’s are my favorite.
Need to learn how to grate and preserve fresh ginger that way I can cut
Cost more
I made the Korean beef and added a bunch of broccoli. DELICIOUS!
Love the recipes Christine! Love the easy prep, pop in the freezer, and POW dinner is ready!🙂😋
Christine you never fail when it comes to new dinner ideas. Very delicious recipes. 😯🤤🫠
I love how your puppy is just chilling in the kitchen with you on it’s bed. So cute! I wish My family was a fan of stuffed shells cuz, I love Them!
Thank you for all the recipes! I enjoy all of your videos! Congratulations on paying off your house!
Easy trick for frozen hamburger, put it in the microwave on defrost for about 5 minutes. Easy peasy.
I watch because your a great motivator for my weight loss journey! Thanks so much from Tallahassee, FL! ❤️
Tried the Korean beef bowl tonight it was delicious!!! Would of never thought about it going to try the others later this month!
These are absolutely perfect busy working moms every where thank you
Every time you make Korean bowls I always think, "I should make those too!" But then I blank out when making our meal plans and haven't tried it yet. Thanks for the inspo, because I've still got five days to 'figure out what's for dinner'!
Love all of these ideas. Can't wait to try them!
I hope you enjoy them!
I've been watching so many videos all over UA-cam trying to find good simple freezer meals to make for when I have a baby in a few months and I couldn't find any I thought my family would actually like and that wouldn't take me hours to get prepped. And then here you are 🙏 lol
David. Tennant. YES! Him in DOCTOR WHO (best doctor of all time, amazing show, fight me!!) and Broadchurch. Highly recommend ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ + as a Korean American, really appreciating the quick recipe! I've tried several of your recipes so far. LOVE!
Hey! I signed up for Acorn TV a few days ago after seeing your code in an older video of yours. I am happy to have a month free!!!
Thank you for giving directions for cooking from the frozen state!
OMG-great recipes. I have printed every.single.one! Your recipes are so delicious and easy-thanks for sharing
Love some of the ideas for freezer meal, just started to do freezer meals in our house, so I will definitely be taking Some of these ideas
It's it great! When I buy things in bulk I love putting together freezer meals. Saves so much time. I processed 15 pounds of chicken breasts. Some were cut thin for the grill, some cubed with Greek marinade, some taco style for fajitas. Huge bonus is I only dirty the counter once
Everything looks great. Enjoy your get away.
Wow perfect timing for this video. Im gonna make all of these since I’m going on a trip next week. Hopefully my super picky kids like them.
awesome! the last recipe (stuffed shells) - I do exactly the same except my hubby likes crushed up chili fritos sprinkled on top - gives it just a hit of extra flavor and crunch -
Love that your watching the Stephen Lawrence program. That poor boy’s senseless murder stayed in my mind so we now regularly donate to the Stephen Laurence foundation.
Love your easy cooking videos.
All of these recipes look really tasty. I can’t wait to try the taco stuffed shells. I love Acorn TV, I’ve been subscribed for over a year. I also love Brit Box. I am obsessed with UK, Australian and Canadian crime dramas. My favorites are Midsomer Murders, My Life is Murder, Scott & Bailey, Death in Paradise, Harry Wild, Murdoch Mysteries, Ms Fisher’s Modern Mysteries, Agatha Raisin, Shakespeare & Hathaway and Queens of Mystery.
These looked delicious !!!! Yummy and lucky family you have !
Christine you have no idea how much you are saving my life right now! With me going through chemo, cooking for my family just doesn’t work sometimes and we have been eating like garbage. I’m planning on making up some freezer meals in my window period where I feel normal before my next round. Thank you so much!
Best wishes to you Kristy. I hope you sail through chemo and ring that bell! Love to you and your family.
@@amywright2243 thank you so much! We are managing pretty well, I’m surprised at how well we are doing. I’m still working too which is a huge blessing for us. A few days are rough but for the most part things are running as they should, except dinner
I made a similar tortellini soup last night. I used kale fresh from the garden and instead of crushed tomatoes I used a pint jar of my homemade salsa. The flavor was outstanding!
Fantastic recipes thanks. Would be interesting to see Dave cook them and the families reactions!
Everything looks so good!
Hi ! I tried all the jarred alfredo sauces and the Prego is the absolute best. A little pricey but when I see it on sale and have a coupon I really stock up. Homemade is the best for sure but I add oregano and some white wine to rinse out the jar and it is wonderful.
Luv ya Christine
Delicious!!! I’ve made taco shells for ages. Sometimes use shredded chicken and you can add black beans, corn and Rotel tomatoes. My original recipe had slightly crushed tortilla chips in the bottom of the pan.
I’ve made the last recipe, the taco shells. They are absolutely delicious and quick to make.
Something besides taco, burrito, burrito-taco, then make a taco pasta casserole!! LOL. I love it and will definitely try it.
I love Acorn TV!!!! Thanks!!!!
acorn tv is my favorite channel. thank you for the great recipes.
Amazing you just made 2....of my regular go to's...the Korean beef and Italian sausage tortellini soup....amazeballs 🙌
So what’s all this hate with tacos and burritos? Lol! You’re such an awesome mom!
Thank you for this!! I needed some easy prep freeze meal ideas this summer. It’s too easy to say, “I’m tired, let’s go pick up fast food. “
This way I always gave something on hand to put in the oven or instant pot.
Made the Jalapeño Chicken casserole tonight, it was delicious! My family LOVED it!
I also shared a freezer meals video today. I love the idea of Korean beef on hand, it’s one of my favorite dinners. I’m going to have to do that next time! We love it on lettuce wraps with pickled radishes and onions.
That sounds delicious!
Funny to think of folks overseas subscribing to watch what's on our channels here in the UK. There are lots of great programmes, so I'm pleased it's an option for folks in the US.
Even as someone without a freezer right now, the options in your video would make great meal prep options for the week. Always happy that your recipes involve a sensible number of ingredients.
OMG thank you for including the talking talk maple bacon clip! 🤣 I had forgotten all about that glorious video.
Love your meal ideas and I love Acorn TV. So many interesting shows!
OH MY!!! Watching this video caused my stomach to grumble loudly. Everything looked so yummy. 😋😋😋
I love watching you’re cooking videos they inspire me to make them ❤️🏴🇬🇧
Hey Christine, i loved Matthew McConaughey's Greenlight I think I actually recommended him some time ago on your Channel. If you like suspense and thrillers I'm recommending to British authors C.J Tudor she's been recommended by Stephen King and also Ruth Ware both are great authors. I've read all of their books if your looking for any new authors. Hope you have a wonderful time on your trip cya in the next video.
LOL! I'm glad I'm not the only one who browns frozen beef!!! Thanks for your videos!
A messy chef is a good chef!! 👍
These recipes help a lot with 5 kids- thanks!
I had a family of 8, and always had spillage. My motto became, "If it isn't messy- it isn't Good!" 😂
We have been making the chicken Alfredo meal for years. We call it Mexican Chicken Alfredo. It's my go to meal when I bring a meal to a family. It's always a hit. I have been asked for the recipe almost every time.
Thank you for such great freezer meals! Love it!
You are so welcome!
Good recipes on this one! Thx!
I'm making those Mexican stuffed shells tonight for dinner. The only difference is i use red enchilada sauce on top instead of taco sauce. They are so good!
love your videos. Making a mess in the kitchen is half the fun. LOL
I’m growing heatless jalapeños this year. I’ll have to try that pasta with them so my kids will be able to eat it.
Tacos, burritos, burrito tacos, and taco burritos is (are?) my dream meal prep 😆
Thai was awesome! So many good recipe ideas!
Hi Christine I love watching your videos. An easy way I defrost meat , I place it in a pan with a little water and cover with a lid and cook on a low flame it will start to defrost and you just break apart, It takes some time but it works really well.
That soup looked so good! Will be trying that -
Will be trying these for sure ❤️ love your videos
Oh you’re a good neighbor to have.
My son would either have taco burritos or a combination of both and burrito tacos and then Johnny morrisetti and that's all they would eat. Thank you for this
I see that bicep in your thumbnail pic 👏👏👏 Look at that hard work!! I'm a newbie to all things movement but your fitness content has been super helpful and interesting btw
Love Acorn TV! Harry Wild is my fav
These look fantastic!
All the rescipes look amazing
They are so yummy!
Hey Christine!!! I love ur channel ❤️❤️
Thank you so much!!
See Mindy Mom was talking about you today. Love watching both of you.
I think half meat and half black beans would be awesome in the shells!
Ooo I’m gonna need to look for the Korean rice from Royal. I love their cilantro lime rice for tacos
Christine and family have a great week thanks from Oklahoma
Have you watched The Sounds? I just binged it this weekend and I think you and Hayley would like it!
Christine, I saw that you were on the Rachel Cruze Show the other day. Congrats on paying off your house! I love love love the Damn Delicious Korean Beef Bowls. If anyone is wondering...it is legit delicious. Thank you for sharing you delicious recipes. :)
Oh my gosh! That dog clip! I have loved that so much since the first time I saw it years ago. I’m going to go find it and watch it again! 😂😂😂
Oh! And thank you for all the great meal ideas too! 👏
Frugal tip, when using a jarred sauce if you're adding liquid to your recipe put a little in the emptied sauce jar, put the lid on & give it a good shake then dump it into your sauce pot. This gets the rest of the sauce stuck in the jar so you don't need to dirty a scraper & nothing goes to waste. If it's red sauce you can use a little of the pasta water which will help your sauce stick to your pasta.
Wants family to have something other than tacos, makes taco pasta. 😂🌮🍝 Sounds like something I'd do.
Definitely trying the jalapeño pasta!
Love those recipes!
