I love mixing the zesty Italian with some Worcestershire sauce and marinating chicken in that. My children also "shop" my freezers and pantry and I live it, gives me the feeling of still feeding my little chicks.
I did it when I lived away from home for 2 ½ years. I also went home and made up a lot of meals that I used.
You definitely don't need any makeup!!! I'm a m ok. Of 7 and a grama of 16, we gave a lot of things to do in life makeup should not be a big deal! So you go girl ! You are beautiful just as you are! God's Blessing to you!🥰💐
I hope you read this comment and discover that you can peel large quantities of garlic SO quickly at a time by chopping the end off, putting them all in a container with a lid, and shaking the tar out of it! It’s fun and effective! New to your channel and loving your videos!
Unsolicited advice but... I make breakfast sandwiches all of the time and the EASIEST way to do your eggs is buy a muffin top pan. Spritz with cooking spray, crack 1 egg per opening, break the yolk, stick in the oven for 7 minutes at 350. You can make 12 eggs at a time that way! I hope you try this, I think you’ll love it!
An even easier way is to scramble an egg and microwave it in a microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute! Was my go to in highschool!
Omg great tip! 😉
For those eggs rings if you put a bit of water in a pan with the lid on it cooks much faster. Just add a little bit of water every once and awhile instead of putting alot of water. That's how McDonald's does it. I used to work there as a teen and a young adult. They butter the rings every time and break the egg yolk as soon as you put it in the pan. I hope that helps! Xoxoxo
Middle of the night and I can’t sleep, so rewatching Kimmy meal prep. Reruns are a good thing.
Thank you Kimmie for your great tips and ideas from a grandma in South Africa!
I find if you throw your garlic into a prep bowl of warm water, the skin slides off neatly underwater and your fingers don't burn (or smell for ages afterwards)😉
I put garlic in my freezer too. I chopped mine very fine, placed it in a small zip top bag and flattened it out. When I need garlic I just open the bag and break a piece off. It doesn't freeze super solid so its easy to pinch some off. :)
So glad I found your channel! I’m currently 5 months pregnant and need freezer meal ideas!!
My favorite marinade for chicken or pork is a Greek marinade that I make with olive oil, lemon juice, lots of minced garlic, onion powder, and Cavender's Greek seasoning. I cut meets in chunks, marinate for 24 hours, skewer, and grill for a fantastic souvlaki. Great with orzo, a greek salad, and Tzaziki!
Your videos are sooo therapeutic to watch. I can’t even describe it. You have such a calming influence I just love you. ❤️✨
Her voice. Something about it relaxes me
Same here 👍❤️
grop66 we’re in our aprons lol ♥️✌️
DanYell X he he there’s plenty of space 🤣👍 greetings here from Denmark 🇩🇰
I agree hey ❤️
I realise that these are freezer meal videos. But is it possible to do a video where you’re serving these meals to the fam? I’d really like to see how these freezer meals look like on the dinner table 😁 a video where you cook/heat/prep the freezer meals just before serving
That would be good
That’s a great idea
That would be nice!
Yes!!!
I just found your channel, and I love your recipes. I am a big believer in freezer meals, and meal prep. I am a nurse and prepare all my meals for the week, for me at work and for my family while I am working. Just subscribed
I really need to look up some recipes to start meL planning
You really are a hard working mom , I wish I had your energy to do all that. God bless you and your beautiful family ✝️
Have you thought about a Food Saver? The vacuum sealed bags? I know it’s an extra step however keeps the food fresher longer. Just a thought. Thank you for the wonderful video! You’re an inspiration!
Why are these videos so satisfying to watch. I don't even make freezer meals :)
With your left over cheese,sausage and eggs you could make breakfast bowls. Just put everything in a bowl with salsa and eat it 😊 We marinate our chicken with pickle juice and some cayenne pepper it's delicious. Have a blessed day Kimmy and Fam💗
That's what I was thinking too!
auntdeb_4 what a great idea!
Kudos to husband for washing the mountain of prep dishes. All your recipes look amazing, I love your channel!
Thanks for watching
That product looks super interesting just to have by the front door as sanitizer!!
Highly recommended a bidet - we have had one for 5 years and love it !! We have saved tons of tp and it’s been the best with little ones potty training , you don’t have to wipe their butt !! They wash and dry themselves!! Awesome 👏🏼
You don't look old enough to have older children you are a lovely family it's nice to see proper cooking a lot of these shows are just junk food made into meals but love watching your cooking ideas xx Debbie and family in the uk lol I use my husbands face book
Love a casual catch up over some cooking. No need for social distancing through a screen! Love a little meal prepping to help our future selves on tired or busy days!
If you have not, can you make a video of you using the pizza packets? If you have done that already can you provide the link to that video?
I've been watching your VLOG for at least a year really enjoyed your meal prep video. The French dip sandwiches look awesome. Nice to see your awesome hubby pitching in on the cleanup!
Tried your breakfast burritos today. They were a hit! Love the idea of having pancakes and French toast at the ready. Sometimes, my bread stales before the loaf is used....so, great for French toast.
I use canning jar rings to do my eggs. They are a perfect size. Just spray with cooking spray and let the rings get hot before you put in the eggs. Easy to flip over.
i ve not use any type of wipes for years, when i had to paid £125 to get the drain fixed,, garlic cut top off drizle with oil wrap in foil bake when using oven, then store in jar with olive oil.. it makes it sweet xx
Late to the party but muffin TOP pans work great for the eggs. Spray each well, drop an egg in each, pop the yolks and bake for a short time. Muffin top pans are the perfect size for English muffins.
When I make my pasta sauce, I freeze them flat in gallon zip lock bags. I then stack the bags on top of each other in the freezer. Saves ALOT of room. 🥰
I do the same. You can fit so many stacked!
That is really nice of your hubby to help clean since he knows you been cooking all day way2go Derek
I am newer to your channel and just wanted to say thank you for your great tips and tricks and just helping to inspire new ideas and your lovely energy.
I am enjoying your videos and also really enjoy that these are efficient meals both financially and otherwise. Many thanks and have a great evening😊❤
Thank you
I love watching videos like this and I love the comments others are giving you because it helps me to understand what they think too God bless all of you have a great day 🙏🕊️♥️
I love the way you always prep ahead to make your life easier. I should do this more so that we do t end up having fend for yourself nights.
Really loved the laid back vibe of this video! Loved how you just casually talked to us while you were cooking!
fill a deep pan of cold water. once you fill your freezer bags lower it in the water to go over the food, the water gets rid of the air so you just need to close it.
Quick side note you can also throw the marinated zesty italian chicken in the oven. my family loves it and i usually serve it with rice and a steamed veggie...
What I like about freezer meals is, you eat what they sell at restaurants for an arm and a leg, but this one you make it yourself your way, and it stretches out the food especially when using crock pots.
You can use wide mouth canning rings sprayed with oil for the perfect egg!
Hint for the breakfast burrito....add some jarred salsa to the burrito. It will help keep the burrito from drying out when reheating. Delish!
I love your pizza kits! Since you put the video out, i had been making the dough every friday, and we would go to our best friends and do homemade personal pizzas with their kids.. until quarantine of course 😩 love the sauce recipe too!!!!
I chop up garlic cloves and freeze them into mini ice cube trays. Then they are ready to go for a ton of recipes and you can throw a frozen cube of chopped garlic whenever you need. Great video, thanks!
Some fabulous ideas, this will help a lot as I work looping hours so one day every fortnight will be fabulous.
I also make freezer meal now for over 30 years so quick and easy to do I get meal ideas from you too so thank you x Debbie and family in uk
Zesty Italian is the only marinate I use....Love your posts....I am learning a lot from you. Thanks, Dana from Ohio.
never thought to add oil to the bag for freezer pizza dough! brilliant! also, we use canning rings for egg rings. we always seem to have a bunch floating around. just spray them really well :) thanks for always encouraging us
Empire Acres Homestead why add the oil?
@@teresareade8221 so the dough doesn't stick to the bag and the dough doesn't form a skin on it.
LOVE you!! You’re amazing. I’m about to be a mama myself. I’m 24 years old and this will be my first baby 💙 Your freezer meals/videos in general give me life during these crazy times. Keep going beautiful 😘🙏🏻
Pizza packs are a brilliant idea. I will watch your other video for more details. Hugs Kimmy❤️
Our concessions stands at sports games and church camps here in Oklahoma sell small cups of frozen pickle juice. The kids love it and it's great to help keep them from getting dehydrated during the hot summer.
The easiest way to peel that much garlic is to put the cloves in a bowl put the lid on and shake it until it's completely peeled. Learned this from Rachel Ray's tv program.
That Zesty Italian dressing is probably my family's favorite marinade for chicken as well, but for something different we really love the Hawaiian and teriyaki marinades that are out there too!
That is one of our favorites as well. I just made 20 freezer meals and added a can of cream of chicken with the marinade this time and extra spices.
@@kizmomma7009 vi
For chicken I love to marinate with newmans own honey mustard and then bake the chicken in the oven. For pulled pork in the crock pot I like to use rootbeer or apple juice- it makes the meat taste so good- even without sweet baby rays bbq sauce. I can also marinate ANYTHING in balsamic raspberry vinaigrette. So yummy!
i always find it interesting to watch what others meal prep, especially those in other areas because i’m introduced to a lot of things i wouldn’t think of! i will definitely have to try the italian dressing chicken marinade. i know this is an older video but congrats to your daughter and her husband!!! definitely going to be planning a bunch of your freezer meals before i have my daughter this fall!
I know this was 2 years ago but I only just found you. The 2 English muffins that had no Canadian bacon you could have put some of your bacon pieces and your sausage mince on those ones. Also if you spray the silicon egg circles with spray cooking oil the egg won’t stick to them. How long do you heat up the breakfast burritos? I’m liking your videos. Thank you. Hugs from Australia.
❤️❤️🐨❤️❤️
I make these too. But I use parchment paper so you can microwave them. And I make some with peppers and onions and chipotle sauce.
Congrats on the new house I know I am a little late with this but I am so happy for you I have really enjoyed watching your UA-cam and life journey the past few years!! Your freezer meal videos have saved me on so many occasions, I have been prepared with food and meal prep during this craziness!! Thank you so much.. love from NJ!!
So Kimmy here I am just full of advice, lol. When doing your breakfast muffins and burritos my hint is to beat up your eggs with salt and pepper and pour them onto a cookie sheet and bake in the oven. Stirring every so often just to get the layer done. Then take something, a glass, cup, etc and cut out for your muffins 1st. Then take the remainder and cut up for your burritos. Hope this helps! Blessings!! Oh also for shredding the block cheese. The same concept for cutting corn off the cob works great. Turn a bowl upside down on say wax paper for instance, that will support the bottom of your grater. And it will work great!! No knuckle grating or holding things at an awkward angle.
Not sure where I've seen this, but you could cook a pan of eggs in the oven, then use a biscuit cutter to get the round shapes you want for muffin sandwiches. Then you can mash up the leftovers for the breakfast burritos.
An idea to remove the skins off garlic is to put them in a mason jar and shake them for thirty seconds. The skins come off. Also you can use two stainless bowls and shake. Just an idea to help be more efficient. Love watching you!!
You do NOT want to kill bacteria in your private areas. That thing is crazy. When the toilet paper shortage happened, we bought bidets. Seriously the best thing ever. We use so little toilet paper now that we haven't bought any in over 6 months and we didn't even hoard. We use the bidet and bamboo washable cloths to pat dry. I only use tp during that time of the month. Saves money, so much less trash and better on the pipes.
FYI, helpful to turn the top of your ziplock bags outward/fold. So when you get something on the top - it won't mess with the seal. Just a suggestion.
Thank you soo MUCH FOR YOUR VIDEOS!! This afternoon I picked up to small prep after school pizza and 2 different types of breakfast sandwiches. Seeing your videos helps me pick up helpful prep tools little here little there, I got more freezer lunch containers and a baister brush. I can't get them to eat home made freezer meals but the mentioned above they will go after. Again! THANK YOU SO MUCH PLEASE KEEP ON MAKING VIDEOS PLEASE❣❣❣❣❣❣🤯😋🤔😏😛
I love your videos I had a big jar of pickles on the floor for about 2weeks I had no space in the fridge my grandbabies wants them I told them no room in the fridge thanks for the idea now they can have pickles tomorrow thank you love it
I love your pizza kits! I’ll definitely be making some of these. I use a muffin top pan to do my eggs for breakfast sandwiches. So much quicker and easier. I can bake 12 eggs at a time and it just takes a few minutes. Italian dressing mixed with honey mustard dressing is amazing on chicken too. So glad I found your videos!
just a thought to free your hands a little bit, put your sauce baggies in a cup and fold the baggie over the sides then you can just dump and move on to the next w/o having to hold each one.
For easy peel garlic...soak them in water for 24hours...love the video!
Beautiful food prep, great ideas!
I have found chicken skin shrinks up as it grills. I trim also, but leave a little more overlapping, to keep the meat covered as it grills.
Hi Jimmy!! You give me inspiration to cook easy, nutritious meals. It's hard for me to stand for any length of time, so big batch cooking helps me a lot. I like to make a meal and freeze the leftovers. Then I just defrost a meal and make a salad. Dinner is served!!! Blessings to you and your family
I'm watching how to make freezer meals because I'm pregnant. I'm tired of not knowing what to throw together for dinner and I'm definitely not going to want to deal with that postpartum! It's just me and my husband tho (and our daughter soon of course lol) so I will definitely have to make portion adjustments but these recipe ideas are amazing!
When I do pork chops I do it in Chicken Gumbo soup. I add a teaspoon of yellow mustard to it. So tender when done. I usually bake it.
You can also use the lids from a mason jar to cook your eggs round. Just spray them good with non stick spray. I just bought a dash griddle to use to make round eggs for sandwiches. It works amazing. And it was pretty cheap.
My daughter bought me a mini waffle maker for Christmas. It is the perfect size to do eggs for breakfast sandwiches.
You were asking what type of marinade we liked for our barbecue.
I love marinating my chicken with lemon juice, mustard seeds and herbs of Provence.
I LOVE your pizza pocket idea. My son is moving into a dorm and this would be a perfect meal kit for him and his roommates.
When hubby and I first got married and money was tight I used to go shopping in my parents freezer alot. Haha thank God my mom shopped like she was still feeding a big family. Thinking back it would have been even better if it was already prepared meals :)
Kimmy you work so hard for your family! Lots of yummy great meal ideas. I love your giggle. Blessings!
What size stock pots are those? Trying to get my kitchen pots, pans, and bakeware together to batch cook for my family of 6. Can you do a video on things you need to have for batch 🍳?
I absolutely love these freezer meal videos. Thank you so much for sharing these recipes and ideas! I made the pizza kits and oh my goodness 🤤 girl! That pizza sauce, holy cow, so good!
I like to marinate with the olive garden creamy Italian as well as the zesty Italian. Sometimes I do so Worcestershire with vinegar and soy sauce.
Hi there Kimmy! Excellent job on all those meals!!!! Enjoy your day today!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😘
They sell 3 lb bag of garlic cloves all clean that I use to roast in a 9x13 covered in olive oil and roast in oven on 300 till brown, maybe stir,then you can freeze the roasted cloves in small baggies. I pour the oil used back into bottle, now I have garlic infused oil. I use the roasted garlic in many dishes and even just spread it on toast like butter,oh so yum
That's awesome!! I'm going to have to try that! Thanks for the idea
If you empty the pickles in a strainer, you can separate them much quicker and easier. Put a bowl under the strainer for the juice! And put the garlic in a container after cutting off the ends. Close ist and shake! It will peel itself
This is so helpful to get me over freezer meal slump. Shopping my pantry and freezer to make a few easy things. Totally making pizza kits too! I love using Italian dressing on chicken and cooking it on the Webber. The charcoal smoke does something truly magical to the dressing! So good! Here is another amazing and simple recipe. Use BBQ sauce and a "healthy" squirt or more. The tang of the dressing goes so well with bbq sauce. Wishbone or Kraft, both work well for me. You can used chopped chicken instead of bone-in. I also add in diced kielbasa and bacon, serve on sandwiches. Great shredded too!
I love your videos!!! I'd love to know what you mixer you used to mix up your pizza dough :) I love making homemade pizza, and that mixer would make my life so much easier lol.
I always press the knife over the garlic cloves and press it and it's so easy to peal the skin off of them very fast.
In your intro’s where you hear the doorbell ring for turning on notifications, my dog goes crazy. Every time! I am always telling him it’s on the tablet 😂
Kathy Forgues my dogs do the same every time 😹
LOL, I actually walked to my front door when I heard it.
You can use a metal cookie/biscuit cutter for your eggs also just spray before so they release easier
Great video !! I use sprayed muffin tins in the oven about 9-10 min to make the eggs.. Works great :)
I add the date on my bags and it is really helpful; just an idea.
Wow 😳 I love your freezer meal ideas 💡 they definitely give me some dinner ideas 💡.. thank you for sharing
Love french dips! We always use a roast in the crock pot (we don't have an instant pot 😅) and we use the au jus mix and a PK of dry onion soup mix and beef broth! Sooo good! 😍
We marinate with Italian or basalmic vinegar dressing. Also, we make a cilantro lime marinade, etc.
Thank you for this awesome instructional video. It's clear to see that you're a wonderful wife & mother. God bless you & your family! :)
Zesty Italian dressing mixed with soy sauce is another great marinade. I never thought to do just Italian dressing.
¼ cup of soy sauce
½ cup Italian Salad
Thanks!
I marinate my chicken or steak with squeezed orange and squeeze lime, salt, paprika, garlic, adobo seasoning.
I really need to learn to make my own dough, bread, and like everything you cook. I can’t wait on your cookbook….
For perfect round eggs I use a wide mouth canning ring. The inside is well greased before adding the egg.
Amazon sells paper deli sheets. Wrap egg sandwiches or burritos and freeze them like that and run under water before reheating in microwave. Paper keeps them moist and is super easy on the go!
Just found you a few days ago and I absolutely love your channel. Thank you for all the ideas 😇
DOUGH MESS TIP! I got this tip from another UA-camr “OurHalfAcreHomestead”. She used to be a baker at a shop. And she uses a tablecloth (folded) under her dough. It makes clean up so easy. I just use an old pillow case.....but I swear by it now. Now scraping flour from my counters anymore.
Thanks for the tip!
Girl you are gonna save my life once my baby is born lol I just invested in a deep freezer so I'm going to meal prep once it gets closer to my due date and make life so much easier lol these pizza kits are going to be life changing. You're so innovative :) love your channel.
AliMakingMyWay A friend of mine was pregnant with her third baby and her parents bought her a freezer for the garage as a baby gift. Genius!
I don't know when you're due but if it's after we're "sprung" you can invite a good friend over and prep it all together. My bestie and I did that before she had this foot surgery that was going to take her out for weeks of bedrest. We cooked all day and filled her freezer. It was a huge blessing to her hubby & kids.
Thanks !! What's the name of the machine you used to mix the dough? I need a new machine & love that 😊
