Tonight- Applewood pork loin with mashed potatoes and Italian green beans, tomorrow- fend for yourself/ leftovers, Tuesday- veggie burgers with sweet potato fries, Wednesday- fend for yourself/ leftovers, Thursday- smoked sausage with fresh veggies, Friday- turkey wraps with baked chips, Saturday- grilled chicken with fresh veggies, and Sunday- fend for yourself/ leftovers. It's only my hubby and I.
It's a lot of crockpot and salads this week. Your fruit Salad gave me a quick idea and so did your wraps, thank you so much. Infact I wanted to reach thru the screen and grab the bowl of fruit salad!!! Lol. Thanks for all the love you put into everything you make!!. God Bless you Mel, please have a wonderful week. Blessings 🙏🙏🙏
I love shout out for the almonds! We have a saying in our home called "Super Shoppa". And when one of us brings home a deal like that, we pause and tell the rest of the family (or whomever is around) we got the day's "Super Shoppa' award. Gotta seize those small silly victories, right?
I have a chopper like yours and I love it, great for weekly prep; lettuce, tomato, carrots, onions, even thin sliced hard cheeses for chopped salads. Can't wait to try the cracker salad, it looks yummy interesting! I'd like to recommend everyone to buy a single purpose item that we use constantly, the hard egg steamer from Walmart. It was $9.99, eggs peel perfectly every time, and no cook husband will use it. It will make 7 soft, medium, and hard cooked egg. Now we have on hand all of the time, for snacking in our dollar tree hanging from shelf, egg keeper.
An alternative to the tuna salad inside a bell pepper...slice a cucumber longways, scoop the seeds out, and put the tuna salad in it. Cool, refreshing, and helps you up your water intake. I like to use a peeler to get some of the skin off of the cucumber as it's bitter to me. LOVE all your videos! These all look great! Even though we've had a lot of rain here in central Florida lately it's already been very hot so these dishes will help cool us off. I call all our seasons "summer"...fall summer, winter summer, spring summer, & hot summer lol.
Be careful with that chopper I have one & my hubby always jokes about me going to war with the chopper 😂. I use mine all the time such a time saver. Hope you have a wonderful week! ❤
Hey Sweet Momma! I just love your videos I just watch you to relax...same video over and over lol! I saved all this weeks recipes can't wait to try them. Wanted to pass on a time saving tip. Like we use the shredded chicken, I buy the big 10 lb package of ground beef at Sam's and cook it up. I spread it flat in gallon bags and freeze it! No dirty skillet for crockpot recipes. You can break off a bit for nachos or chalupas, whatever! Saves money buying in bulk too!
Yes ma'am, those Grainger county tomatoes are the best. Even the hothouse tomatoes from the beginning of the season are better than any of those other tomatoes. That tuna salad looks delicious. I bet a can of rinsed and drained chickpeas would be a great addition to it.
Hello Mama Mel,We mostly do sandwichs,salads and tacos for a beat the heat meals. The chicken wrap that you did looked so good,so I will give it a try and the fruit salad.My biggest meal is mostly on Sunday's.Thanks for sharing as always. Y'all be blessed and enjoy y'all's night ,and have a wonderful week.❤❤❤
Hey Lula. Hope you and Oscar are doing well this lovely evening and staying cool. We're continuing to pray for y'all. Have a Beautiful and Blessed evening and week ahead.
I loved all the yummy recipes you shared with us all these will definitely be in our dinner line up for the week. Who doesn't love bargains I know I do you have such a kindred spirit about you. I learned a lot of my cooking from my Grandmother she had a story for everything cooked big hugs to you . 😀
Another great sandwich to make when it’s hot out - recipe is on the back of the Craisins package I think- chopped up chicken, mayo, celery, craisins… probably nuts if you like them … simple, quick, and delicious in wrap or normal bread.
Thx! Hellman’s makes everything better. My tuna salad is called by my friends the kitchen sink salad. I add garbanzo beans for more protein. When cutting a tomato use a serrated knife. That’s why it’s in your arsenal. ❤
These are great! I’m out traveling in my rv at a lake this week. These are perfect for me to make ahead and have for lunch or a snack while we are out on the boat! Would like to see more easy make ahead recipes to have while I’m out camping and traveling down the road!
a tip with doing hard boiled eggs so its super easy, I've been doing mine in the airfryer, no water needed, just put straight in the airfryer and I do 5 minutes at 145c which google tells me is 293f but if you want it more well done add another minute, less well done 3 to 4 mins. They come out perfect eggs too, no hard grey areas or anything and super easy with no extra pot or water. Mine is a fan forced air fryer though so please do take that in to consideration with yours
I was going to comment “poor hubby had to film and got no fruit salad sampling” 😂 … then you commented he doesn’t like fruit …and I’m married to a no fruit/veggie guy myself. So enjoy! All of these salads / wrap ideas look delish!! ❤
Thank you, Mel! The temperature has been in the upper 90's here with a heat index in the 100's. The last thing I want to do is heat up the kitchen using my stove any more than I absolutely have to. These recipes are coming at the perfect time! Oh man does the fruit salad sound refreshing and delicious. I love anything Caesar related so I know those pitas will be something that I'll try. I've never tried a cracker salad!! I'm intrigued and definitely want to try it. Home grown tomatoes are one of the best things I love about Summer. I offer eat a tomato sandwich! Home grown corn is another thing that makes Summer perfect for me. I can't get enough. Awesome price on the slicer!! Sorry you got cut though. That's something that would happen to me. Lol! I'm not a huge fan of tuna but with all of those veggies and herbs you've convinced me I need to try it. Thanks again for all of your hard work and always bringing us such perfect recipes. Have a blessed and beautiful week. 💟
That slicer is the best. I was watching MANDY IN THE MAKING and she was using one. I immediately went to Amazon and bought one. You got such a deal on the one you bought!! I can't wait to make that yummy fruit salad and those Ceasars Pitas. Great recipes tonight.
I wanted to share some good news with y'all. Remember me asking y'all to please pray for my family and I. After my hospital visit last weekend, my daughter-in-law has sent us pictures and texts about them. We got to see them today. I wanted to cry happy tears. Plus, I'm feeling better. Taking it day by day. Thank you again, everyone for your prayers.
Hi Mel, happy Sunday again boy that weekend went fast One tried and true that my hubby and I have about twice a week is a grilled chicken Caesar wrap he grills the chicken cutlet after seasoning it with a lot of dry spices and then he just brings it in and we assemble the wraps Caesar dressing, Romain, lettuce, grated Parm, and croutons It is really delicious.
Thanks so very much Momma Mel for the wonderful video!!!! I really really appreciate it!!! I am definitely trying some of these salads and the copycat wrap!!! I absolutely LOVE your videos and your channel!!! Thanks again so very much for the wonderful videos!!! Take care and have a wonderful Monday and week!!! 👍🏻😃
Mel, thank you for all these great ideas! 💡 I'm incorporating these recipes into this week's meal plan, and can't wait to dig in! Have a great week, Sweet Friend! 💜
I’m like you….gotta have Mayo as the binder! These are perfect summer meals. I can’t eat heavy in the summer. If I do sometimes it all comes back up! I’ve had gastric bypass surgery and have to be careful what I eat. Thanks for the inspiration Mel!
Mel, u are such a hoot, I swear, I laugh 3/4 thru ur episodes! WOW! Those are some AWESOME deals -esp the Almonds (I always freeze them to help em last forever), & that chopper thing can be bought at TJMaxx for $16 (I've been dying to get one) those choppers are great for arthritic hands! I love all these recipes & wanted to share that Trader Joe's has a delish No-Salt & Low Salt Tuna, & they're great bc u just taste the fish not salt. Hopefully some of the other ladies who watch this who are salt restricted like me will look for them? Also, when ur purging salt from ur diet, add sour bc the 2 hit the same spot on ur tongue. But I'm like u, just give me some Dukes please ... I could eat that stuff right out of the jar! I have been thinking of that Saltine Cracker Salad + it's like u read my mind! Have a great week sweet friend, I think we have a cool front coming so maybe God will make it "swing low" & cool u guys off?! Luv u Mel! 🙋♀️🐦🦋🌻✝️👑🏠🌳❤️❤️❤️
All of these no-cook recipes sound and look wonderful. It's too hot over here to use the oven, and I've been sweating standing over the stove. I would have cheated and bought an egg already boiled too. That would make a quick supper even quicker. I don't care, I just get too lazy after work and everything I have to do. I love your Sam's dinnerware that you bought years ago. I also love a cracker salad. I enjoy you so much. You were so helpful with quick meals. Hey, please let us know how that chopping Gadget from Kroger's works
I LOVE the helpfulness that we share here. Don't have the exact pan for the taco shells? Here, turn over a muffin tin! I'd never thought of that before! I love the community you've gathered here Mama Mel! 💜💜💜
Thank YOU! And I feel exactly the same way, we have THE BEST COMMUNITY HERE! ❤️ Always ready to share a helpful tip and encouraging word. Thank you so much for being a part of it! 😊
Thank you for some great ideas for hot summer food! It’s almost always near or over 100 here in Hemet from end of June to end of September…so I really appreciate this and hope you will come up with some more recipes to beat the heat! My dad too always had a whole green onion on his plate with a little pile of salt to dip the end in…he was from Missouri,grew up in the depression years and also was known to eat sometimes an onion sandwich even in his later years! So funny about your under $5 chopper with its arbitration notice in the box….I would have picked up too ( and I’m not a gadget gal, hate anything extra I have to wash)… Hope you will find a way to use it without hurting yourself😊🤞.
This was such a helpful video, and you're so sweet! I love your accent. I was looking for no heat no cook meals to make for my partner's lunch. Great ideas. Subscribed. Sending peace, love and blessings to you and your family ❤️ - Martha
Thank YOU so much for your kind words and for subscribing, I am so happy that you're here! These were all very delicious, cool, and refreshing and I hope you both enjoy them. Thanks again so much for being here!
Hi Mel, hey I love your videos. Just wanted to let you know that I make the exact same fruit salad but I use maple syrup instead of honey but I am sure both are delicious. Thank you. This is my first comment and I don’t comment very often. blessings to you and all of your viewers
I love these salad recipes. I have rotisserie chicken, in my freezer still from a month ago. I just cut up the breast meat of another and will make a wrap with it for tomorrow. Thank you so much for your ideas!
I’m not complaining Mel but did want to say I also haven’t been getting notifications. And don’t you like peaches? Your fruit salad looked delicious! Thank you Mel !
Oh I didn't mean what I said to sound like I was aggravated that you all are telling me this. I'm so glad that you are. But the situation is aggravating to us all 😢 I'm so sorry that this is happening and I wish I knew what is causing it. I appreciate you so much for watching and I do love peaches ❤️😂
When chopping tomatoes..deseed the tomatoe..push the seeds out with your thumb..cuts better and you don't have all if those seeds in your food...love this series..it's too hot to eat!
Your recipes always look so good! I have some bowls made by Pioneer Woman that are a set of 3 with lids that go on them. Your bowls and dishes are beautiful! 😊
Momma Mel - I had to pause this video to add items to my Walmart pick up order to make some of these recipes this week! Perfect timing! Also, thanks for the info about the 'Lose It' app! One day at a time!
I hope you enjoy these and I used this app a few years ago fell off the wagon 🤣 It's really helpful, and back when I first used it the feature to scan the upc codes of food was in the free version, now it's on the paid version. But the free version is still great and you can add exercise for free still
Hello Mel, I just got back from Kodak, Tennessee. My family spent a week there with the grandkids. Visited Dollywood. I wish I had these recipes last week it was so hot. 😩
I have never thought of making tuna salad like with the mayo on the lettuce and all that! I think I’m going to have that with me when I go to the beach on my birthday!! Thanks Mama Mel!!! Awesome ideas!! Oh I hope your finger is ok??? :(
My doctor told me to eat and egg everyday. They are a perfect protein and low calorie. Sometimes I eat two and my cholesterol is normal because I also use olive oil to cook as much as I can. It actually reduces cholesterol in your blood.
Hey friends, hope you enjoy tonight's video. What are you eating to beat the heat this week?
Tonight- Applewood pork loin with mashed potatoes and Italian green beans, tomorrow- fend for yourself/ leftovers, Tuesday- veggie burgers with sweet potato fries, Wednesday- fend for yourself/ leftovers, Thursday- smoked sausage with fresh veggies, Friday- turkey wraps with baked chips, Saturday- grilled chicken with fresh veggies, and Sunday- fend for yourself/ leftovers. It's only my hubby and I.

Hi Mel more amazing recipes.have a blessed week❤
Thank you! Hope you have a wonderful week too! 😊
Mel, to make your pita pockets, cut them in half and they will open up. Everything looked so refreshing!
Most do that, but these didn't 🤣 I tried to make the one I cut into a pocket but I just spared you the debacle
I just made the 3rd salad in this video. It was so great! I had two big helpings when I should have stopped at 2. Thank you for these easy recipes!

Thanks for sharing your recipe with us. Good summer recipes without cooking on hot days. Take care and see you in your next video ❤❤❤.
Thanks Mel,I'm go straight to dollar tree hope I get lucky and find some of the taco holders.have a great week God Bless ❤️

Thank you Momma Mel, all of your recipes on this video look amazing!! Counting the days to be in Gatlinburg!! Happy Summer 😊
I’m with you Mel. I love Mayo !
I’m like you….gotta have Mayo as the binder! These are perfect summer meals. I can’t eat heavy in the summer. If I do sometimes it all comes back up! I’ve had gastric bypass surgery and have to be careful what I eat. Thanks for the inspiration Mel!
Loving your meals. And that's so funny you brought up them bowls. I got them from my sister one year years ago for my birthday. And there perfect 😊
All of the salads that you made look mighty good and I'm going to try to try some of them😊

Do put the almonds in the freezer Mel! I learned the hard way that nuts don't keep long before they go rancid.
Yes, for sure! Hoping I will have some left for Check Mix here in a couple months!
Great tip❤

Thank YOU so much for your kind words and for subscribing, I am so happy that you're here! These were all very delicious, cool, and refreshing and I hope you both enjoy them. Thanks again so much for being here!
These look so delicious..going to try these..thanku for sharing the great receipe and have a beautiful day ❤
You are funny! Love these quick recipes. Thank you 😊
Try some garlic expressions on your tuna. It’s sooo good. It’s sold at krogers. It’s also fabulous on tomato’s and cucumbers ❤
I tried the fruit salad recipe and it was delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
My pleasure 😊I'm so happy that you enjoyed it!
It all looked delishous. Thank for sharing. The friut salad made my mouth water😅❤❤❤
I always soak my red onion in cool water for about fifteen minutes and drain thoroughly before adding to my dishes. It calms the bite down.
Hi, Mel. I count WW pts. The cool wrap is only 4 pts, the fat free honey mustard is 5! It's delicious. 😊
All your salads look delicious you look great moma mel❤
Thank you Mel for these great summer recipes,I can’t wait to try them ❤
I have those same bowls from Sam’s. I love them.
Love the cool wraps! I’ll have to try my own like yours. 😊
Thank you for sharing the macros 😊
You're welcome, I don't really do all the Maceo stuff but I do try to estimate calories 😉
These look delicious. I’ve had pita bread like you got and if you cut it in half, it will have a “pocket”.
I work towards intuitive eating and I loved hearing that you noticed you eat more without the mayo so you just add it! I love my mayo! ❤️
Me too and it really doesn't make any sense to use more of something else to get the same (but not really 🤣) taste 🤣
Soak red onion in water a few min and that will take out some of the strong taste
Thank you for the great ideas!
Hey hey ❤❤❤❤ I'm here for it!!!
Thanks friend!

All her kitchen wares are so pretty 😍

But the situation is aggravating to us all 😢 I'm so sorry that this is happening and I wish I knew what is causing it. I appreciate you so much for watching and I do love peaches ❤️😂
When chopping tomatoes..deseed the tomatoe..push the seeds out with your thumb..cuts better and you don't have all if those seeds in your food...love this series..it's too hot to eat!
Your recipes always look so good! I have some bowls made by Pioneer Woman that are a set of 3 with lids that go on them. Your bowls and dishes are beautiful! 😊
yummmmm....everything looks so yummy!
Momma Mel - I had to pause this video to add items to my Walmart pick up order to make some of these recipes this week! Perfect timing! Also, thanks for the info about the 'Lose It' app! One day at a time!
I hope you enjoy these and I used this app a few years ago fell off the wagon 🤣 It's really helpful, and back when I first used it the feature to scan the upc codes of food was in the free version, now it's on the paid version. But the free version is still great and you can add exercise for free still
You can use tongs to squeeze the lemon or a lime.
Hello Mel, I just got back from Kodak, Tennessee. My family spent a week there with the grandkids. Visited Dollywood. I wish I had these recipes last week it was so hot. 😩
How fun, hope you and your family enjoyed your time together here.
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel yes we did
I really like your Chicken wraps! Everything looks easy and tasty!
Perfect recipes for hot weather!
Me too, I love chicken anything 😋 Have a great week and stay cool 😎
I have never thought of making tuna salad like with the mayo on the lettuce and all that! I think I’m going to have that with me when I go to the beach on my birthday!! Thanks Mama Mel!!! Awesome ideas!!
Oh I hope your finger is ok??? :(
My doctor told me to eat and egg everyday. They are a perfect protein and low calorie. Sometimes I eat two and my cholesterol is normal because I also use olive oil to cook as much as I can.
It actually reduces cholesterol in your blood.
