hey becky!! i am definitely, without a doubt, much younger than your intended age range. most of your viewers are definitely old enough to be a parent (or maybe even a grandparent!) of mine lol. that being said, I've always loved cooking from an early age. I think that maybe I first realized it on my tenth birthday when I asked for a good five cookbooks on my birthday, as ten year olds do. Thank you so much for fueling my love for gardening and inspiring me to try new recipes!! I hope you know that you're a really good influence for young people out there and I appreciate you lots
I've noticed she has a great mix of viewers who vary in age ❤ it makes the comment section full of useful informations and suggestions. I'm 31 & in fact a mother lol. My daughter is 8 & loves watching her gardening videos, especially likes seeing the tomatos not sure why she doesn't like eating tomatoes lol.
@@hannahkayee831 i def relate with your daughter haha i love how tomatoes look on the vine but something about raw tomatoes just don't sit right with my taste buds
Thank you for sparking my cooking and baking spirit again. Depression put me a dark place for so long and your energy and passion helped me come alive again. Thank you!
I live in South Africa and live kneading my own bread, until I made your bread today, so quick and easy and delicious. I also make my own pasta but today I made bulk pasta for the first time too. Thank you Becky you are an inspiration to me at my ripe age if 60. I love and enjoy following you so much.
Quinoa is great to throw into other dishes to just add some nutrition. I throw 1/2 cup of quinoa into each pot of soup, chili, oatmeal, spaghetti, lasagna (tomato sauce), fried rice, stir fry, etc. It's amazing how easy it is to add that extra "umph" of nutrition. I also throw some Chia seeds into lots of baked goods, like muffins, cake, brownies, etc., for the same reason.
Great idea to.add to other dishes for added nutrition. I'm going to start working my way through.the huge bag I have, my family all.complain about it but think they'll be up for having it added to other dishes.
@@beccihayward975 I wish you luck! My husband and I don't even notice it in most dishes, and in the ones that we do it's absolutely fine. I also heard about scattering already cooked quinoa on salads and putting it in chicken salad, egg salad, tuna salad, etc. I haven't tried it, but I probably will this summer.
I would suggest to prepare your masa earlier or even the day before and wrap in plastic wrap. This will allow the moisture to hydrate better and the result is a tortilla that doesn’t crack. I also add more water than on the instructions
Update: I've been cleaning out my fridge, cabinets since I first started watching your videos several weeks ago. It's been SO SATISFYING to go through these long neglected ingredients and incorporate them into delicious recipes! Thank you for the wonderful inspiration and encouraging my creativity in the kitchen! Your channel has truly been a blessing to me, in more ways than one. Here are a few fun recipes/techniques I've made recently... - Spaghetti squash chicken & kale Alfredo bake - Black bean, mushroom and onion burgers - Tortilla chips, from store bought tortillas. They were awesome! - Carnitas, mushroom and tri-color refried bean burrito bowls (out of canned black beans) - Coconut chicken curry over rice (made my own rice for the first time) - Paleo brownies and banana nice cream - Hotdog Philly over salad - Quinoa noodle spaghetti - Pan fried bacon (I've always made it in the microwave before)
I don’t know if you have ever tried it but to peel your eggs a little easier if you crack it just a little and then stick a spoon under the shell it almost peels it completely together, and it super quick.
Hey SoilSista!! This was great... You totally kept me company while preparing supper for tonight. Ha! That oatmeal is genius... I'm usually a SeaMoss smoothie for breakfast but this was so easy and sounds delicious. I absolutely love salad, so I'll be making salad tomorrow. Thanks for sharing, and tanks for spending your awesome energy. Many blessings to you SoilSista 🙏🏾
I LOVE when she works outbin the garden with the siunds of thebchickens in the background! Definitely can relate to feeling like you have company to homemake with
In December my hubby broke his ankle. In January I slipped on the ice and broke my back. So…. February Pantry Challenge was started. Our first time! We are loving it! Forced us to go through and use up those unusual items that have taken up space. This is also helping us use our garden bounty that we worked so hard in canning in 2021. Thank you for sharing your life with us!
Becky, I learned a tip from watching Mary's Nest on UA-cam. Turn on the light in your oven and place your dough in their to rise. It works like magic. This way you can make your no knead bread in just a few hours. I use this technique for all of my yeast breads. My kitchen is really cold in the winter even though we have central heating. Hope this helps. Love, Debbie
Your channel is super fun and I'm impressed with your energy level. Side note on yeast proofing - you need to mix the salt into the water until completely dissolved before adding the yeast. The granules will kill any yeast they come in contact with. The same goes for dry ingredients going into yeast, you should thoroughly mix in the salt first to avoid killing some of your yeast
Man I love all of the content. I learn so much. I just recently made my own bbq sauce, and I was inspired to do it because you make your own sauces like ketchup and pizza sauce. Mines not canned bbq sauce (don’t have enough/appropriate storage for much canned goods) but I just put the bbq sauce in a big ketchup bottle in the fridge! Keep going Becky!
To ease into a weekly, menu plan begin with a 7 day (columns), 3 meal (3 rows) grid; I like a 4th short row at the bottom for comments, notes, and sometimes prep ahead todo's. Then concentrate on one meal of the day until you've got that one working for you meal chart wise; give yourself permission to fill in the other meals if its not a problem. To begin, plan in 2 or 3 day increments using the 7 day chart; give yourself permission to dot additional meals for during the week and even begin the next week's 7 day chart early. Or, plan 2 to 3 major cooking events seperated by blanks during the 7 day chart. Then fill in the blanks using the left overs, or making multiple meals from a single, from scratch cook. If dinner is the meal you're concentrating on, feel free to fill in the lunch cells with a dinners left overs. In your case, at the onset of the week decide which freezer meals you'll be eating on which day; put them on your meal plan chart. Then distribute the leftmovers in the dinner and lunch cells following; including any "reconstitutions" or use of the left overs as the base of another dish all together. When filling in about (before and after) a major cooking event, take a survey of the refrigerator and counter top perishables to consciously include them. Many, many people fill out thier menu plan every couple of days versus once per week or once per month.
I'm also doing the pantry challenge. I also order from Azure Standard. when i get any cheese i buy 2 - 5 lb. bricks, 1 I slice (I work at a restaurant) and shred the other. Last month I got pepperjack and cheddar. and i had left over cranberry sauce from Christmas so I made grilled cheese with pepperjack and cranberry sauce. Becky, I love your channel.
No one better could appreciate the jewel of cast iron pots than you, Becky. So sweet of Josh to gift you something to encourage your craft. The Finex pans are gorgeous. Love to watch you spice your food. Nothing stingy about the way you do it. Pilaf looks delicious…will try it. Til next time.
1) I love your nail color, 2) all your food looks delish, 3) glad to see someone else put butter on their banana bread...my husband thought I was nuts when I put butter on mine.
My Hubby gives me the eye squint & roll when he sees me put butter on anything. He doesn't like butter & I only use organice grass fed butter. I keep telling him this butter is sooo good for you & you can only get certain nutrients from butter, so it's a win win for me 😁👍. I would love to find a good recipe for homemade cream cheese, I don't like all the unknown additives they're putting in Phillidelphia (sp?) Cream cheese these days. Our Publix supermarket hasn't had their organic Greenwise cream cheese for months now 😐. He uses preserves on all his baked goods except for those that don't need anything extra on them 🙃
I love to watch you cook!! I like your commentary on rules being restricting. What about guiding principles instead of rules. That gives a connotation of moving forward instead of rules which hold you back.
Becky, you motivate me every day! Thanks for doing an almond flour recipe. Our son has Type 1 Diabetes and we rarely get to use regular flour because of high carb count and where he does have a baked item we use almond flour, way less carbs!
@@caithemburrow5569 wholesum yum has great stuff with the carb count (recipes with sugar substitutes like Swerve) and any keto recipe through google. My tip I tell family is: son has approx 50 points (points = carbohydrates - fibre) for a meal so learn nutrition labels! Make sure the dinner isn’t 100 points when you add a dessert. As you start to understand how many carbs are in foods it helps you figure out healthy meals for diabetics! Lots of lean meats and non starch veggies so you can have a small dessert. Hope that helps!
I've been a subscriber for a while and I think this was the first video that I've seen your husband in lol I really hope he knows how blessed he is to have you. I know the videos are edited but in nearly every one I've seen, you're so thoughtful and considerate of your husband, it's so wholesome and heartwarming. Not to mention the mental and physical energy you dedicate to real food meals for you both ❤❤❤
Becky and friends....I know this isnt the video for the lasagna, however. I seen you had a new video and decided it was a perfect opportunity to encourage everyone to watch the lasagna video. I watched it this morning and made it for a late lunch. Heavenly and a definite keeper!!! My husband said it was the best lasagna he has ever had and I have to agree. It was amazing and very easy to put together. I thank you sooo much!! Go watch it people and even better make it!!!
I made it too! It was incredible!! I especially love those noodles she recommended using!!! I have some to a close friend while her husband was hospitalized and she absolutely loved it as well! Thanks Becky
I don't know if this is something you would do, or that all your audience would like to watch this, but I think your usual hairstyles are so fabulous! Could you do a video where you show us how you do some of your most commonly worn hairstyles?
The past few weeks we have had a cold snap and my bread was not rising either. I started putting it in the microwave (not turned on) overnight and now it rises BEAUTIFULLY.
Yes! The microwave is an excellent proofer - I find on especially cold days, I can microwave a cup of water for 2-3 minutes and the microwave stays warm for hours.
I love this type of video!! This and the freezer meal cooking days are my favorite. I draw such inspiration for menu ideas for my own house during them! With that said, I watch all your videos and love them as well, so keep all the content coming! 😃😉 Thanks so much for sharing all you do!
Best thing I did this year was chop and freeze bags of onions. Then when I'm cooking and need onions I can just grab what I need. So quick and easy and then your onions don't go bad on you!
Love watching Becky and when you say “Just add a little…”, cue huge big cups or spoons of whatever the ingredient is. Who would love to go to Becky’s and get a “small” slice of cake 🙋♀️
Becky, I swear your personality is magical✨✨. Your videos cooking from scratch reminds me of my past raising my 4 children. I love cooking and baking from scratch.
I just found your channel and I’m hooked! This is my favourite kind of content. I live alone but I love batch cooking so I don’t have to cook every night. Loving all these meal ideas!
Hi Becky! So happy you posted today! So far I have used up some items way back in my freezer. WOW that pan is beautiful very nice. Yay!!! make tortilla chips to go with that amazing salsa ♡ Just a side note: you look so good and rested (old moms like me notice these types of things...lol) Working all those full time jobs were exhausting you. Great effects and editing !!
Becky, I've only recently discovered your channel, and I binge-watched your videos on a daily basis. I'm so impressed with your knowledge and skills. Thank you so much for inspiring me to be more efficient, adventurous and creative in the kitchen.
A trick I use to keep hard boiled eggs better in the refrigerator is to put a couple of paper towels in the bottom and up the sides of the lidded container you use to store the cooked eggs. This method keeps the eggs fresher longer.
I get so excited every time you post! I think I'm addicted. 😂 In all seriousness, thank you for taking the time to make these videos, even though I'm sure it's difficult at times. I've learnt so much and I'm getting more excited about growing my own produce in the future to be more self sustainable and with cooking and preserving (at the moment I'm working on just keeping houseplants and herbs alive 😅). I'm doing the pantry challenge with my own rules where I look for the older stuff I've got in the pantry and try and include it in my cooking (or as a side) wherever possible to use it up. I'm trying to make 1 meal a week entirely with the things I have in the pantry. It's working well so far for us considering my husband and I live on 1 income. Excited to keep watching and read everyone's comments about how they're going with this pantry challenge. 😊
Okay, Becky I have one for you. Could you do some freezer meals during the pantry challenge? Even if it’s just like 5-6 meals total, it would be so cool to see what you could come up with to stash in the freezer when you’re in a pinch!
Wow that was so much info and inspiration packed into one video! I can’t wait to see what I can dig out of the pantry! Just a side note- I like when you do voice over- I find it restful because it feels like you need to strain your voice the other way. 😊
That banana bread looked so perfect! Almond flour is just like fine almond meal so it doesn't absorb moisture. I usually add some cinnamon or oatmeal to help suck up the moisture when i make a similar pumpkin based bread.
PNW (Eugene, Oregon) girl here! Love the Go Macro bars as well they are my fave! I just recently found you, and SO glad that I have! You inspire me! Thank you for sharing your homestead videos with us - They are wonderful! 🌲💞
Thank you for the rice a roni recipe! I bought a 25 lb bag of rice for $6 at my local store so now I’m trying to make my way through it. This recipe will be perfect for my family.
The close-up of your pupper was priceless! I may have to try the almond banana bread. I wonder how it would be toasted or grilled with butter in you new pan?🥰
If you have an airfryer, i put my eggs in at 260F for 16 minutes, then cold water for 5 to 15 minutes. No Fuss no muss hard boiled eggs every time! Im on keto diet and I dont eat until 10 am, and that's what I have for my breakfast sometimes, besides oatmeal.
Girl, you are amazing. I love your energy, creativeness, knowledge, and multitasking abilities. You inspire me to simply take that first step into something new and go for it. I appreciate you and everything you do.
I live in Lexington ky zone 6 b. Every year I over winter cold hardy lettuces, chard, kale with hoops and row covers. We just had 10” of snow and it’s totally fine. You could definitely do this in zone 8
Almond flour is great as a breading for fish. Mix with garlic, salt and pepper and parsley. Egg wash the fish and dredge the fish in almond flour mixture. Pan fry the fish in just a little oil. I love it on steelhead.
I’m doing this as well with a twist, of course, lol. Pulling everything out of the pantry, taking an inventory and dating everything. Also using Canuary to can a lot of the dried beans as well as “fast beans” from RoseRedHomestead. So, canning and dehydrating are in the mix as well as shopping my pantry. No grocery trips with the exception of pet food, pint jars, etc. No food! Also, my try item is making my own oat milk…I have so many oats. 😂
This is so fun! I love seeing your foods and how you end up throwing things together. Ill admit as an aussie A LOT of what you eat is alien to me but its fascinating! & everything ive made of yours has been as delicious and awesome as it looks!
Becky, rice maker is something that is rarely used in uk. Ive never seen one in electrical shops to buy. The best way to cook rice on stove is in my duch oven. Cover with water just couple inches over rice. Cover with lid, Bring the rice up to boil, when hot water to a rolling boil, turn down to low for 10 mins, turn off stove and leave for 10 mins. Done, the trick is to leave rice alone, dont stir and you will be left with soft fluffy rice. Taken me over 25yrs to finally get it perfect ever time.
In addition to your chicken salad mix, I add chopped apples and chopped walnuts to mine. I like to make mine the day before so it’s nice and cold, and the flavors marry. 🥰🥰
"fresh" dill in the winter = process dill fronds and freeze. Use from frozen. I store mine in a ziploc bag. They have such little moisture that the texture is the same. I love it on salads as it tastes nearly summer fresh.
Not a homesteader..but I decided to try this so I been cooking only what I have in pantry,freezer & canned goods...😟 ....🥴 Becky thank you for inspiring me ....😘
HELPFUL HINT: Boil eggs for 7+ min in water with a dash of vinegar and salt. Rinse with cold water. Put an egg in a pint (or quart) mason jar. Swirl around gently about 3-4 times. Check to see if it needs to crack more. Don’t over swirl. Will easily peal.
another way to break up your pasta is to roll it up in a towel and bend where you want the pasta to break. It doesn't go flying everywhere and all you have to do is open the towel over your pan and pour it in. I'm guessing your rice pilaf dish wasn't too spicy for Josh? It looked wonderful!
I’ve been marathoning your channel Becky, it’s inspiring , detailed , and filled with personality . A recipe you have in place for keeping an audience involved ,from the very clever dishes in which you add to the viewers your personal taste , as foodies we can identify with this , thanks for all you’ve put into your efforts , top notch
This video is a masterpiece Becky! It was exciting and kept me intrigued the entire time! I bet this took so long to film and edit! It’s awesome! Thanks for sharing friend
I am doing this challenge very loosely, I did take inventory of everything and I’m trying to use up what I have for meals! It’s really awesome to have much lower grocery bills!
You are a joy! I spoke to the tv when you talked about pickling your onions , Freeze dry them !!! You will love having them for recipes, topping a salad, mixing into tuna , egg salad or chicken salad. Add them to broth, soups , chowder! Powder them in a food processor/ blender and use them powdered in dressings sauces any recipe. Love freeze dried shallot too!
I just found your channel recently but I could watch you all day. You're so relaxing but at the same time you make me feel really excited and motivated to tackle certain projects. I just moved to a new home and can't wait to have a garden like yours some day.
You are amazing girl. I have 2 kids and life gets so hard. Watching your videos gives me hope that I can also be organized and cook delicious things every day. Bless you!
Egg salad is the best! I can also recommend adding dill and/or sour cucumber if fish is the main dish. I also like to add soysauce when making Japanese inspired eggsandwiches.
That baked oatmeal looks so yummy! I may have to give that one a try for sure. Just gonna share, I do a combo of Ina Garden and Rachael Ray for cooking hard boiled eggs and I've never had a green egg since. Set your pan of eggs/water on the stove, slowly bring up to a boil, let them boil for about 1 1/2 min, then cover with a lid, shut off the heat and let them sit for 20 mins un-disturbed, as they finish cooking in the residuel heat in the water, and after 20 mins, drain, give the pan a slight shake to break the shells a little bit and then run under cold water. Chill/peel as you normally would.
By the intense look and licking of lips…someone would like a taste too.🐾❤️ The boys are looking for a snack. My dog Chewie HAS to eat something when he hears or smells me cooking in the kitchen. He also likes to eat whenever my husband or I eat. I’m home all day with him so I do free range eating. I’ve been disabled for 20+ years. I was diagnosed with MS at age 27. You have helped me to keep pushing forward. I try to keep active since I was paralyzed more than one. Last year I stared gardening. I’ve harvested a few green peppers and tomatoes. The green peppers I grew from a pepper I purchased. They are still producing now. I had a lot of fails because I went into gardening ignorantly. I’m hoping this year the yields will be higher. Oh and because you’ve spoken so much of Calendula and Echinacea I just planted them both from seed this week. You give me SO MUCH encouragement and I MUST thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m almost done watching EVERY video on your channel. I’m going to be sad when I’m done. You’re part of my daily routine. I talk about you all the time to my husband. Although I’m much older than you are we share a lot of the same ideals. More people should watch your video. Having order in your home/life makes life easier to live. Tfs sweetie. Have a great day.🤗
Great video. I’m visiting my son in Oregon in a week and we are going to Mt. Hood. I don’t know where you go skiing, but if I see you I will introduce myself.
I have an almond flour chocolate chip muffin. It’s the best. I actually make it X4 and they freeze so well. My husband eats two everyday. We also swap out different kinds of choco chips. Peanut butter chips is our favorite. 2.5 C almond flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 eggs 1/3 cup sucanat 2tsp vanilla 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1/2 tsp salt 2/3 cup maple syrup 1/4 Cup butter melted 3/4 cup choco chips (white or pb can sub) Mix ingredients together, I add butter after it has cooled a bit at the end. Original recipe says bake for 350° for 13 to 15 minutes. But I have found we like them better baking at 325° for 18 minutes.
Hi Becky , I’m so in love with your personality and enjoy your style..you have definitely motivated me differently in the kitchen.. I just have one request when you are cooking on your stove can you please turn on your overhead microwave light to give more light at the stove when cooking please.. sometimes it seems a little dark over there the light may help thank you ,and happy new year💜❤️💜❤️.
I'm only half way in and I just want to say you are awesome. I also wanted to let you know how I learned 2 of the things you did. One tip I learned about bread rising better as well as warmth is keep the salt away from the yeast. Mix it more into your flour after everything else. And the eggs I do for 4 min. In the insta pot. I'm loving this video. Many blessings to you ❤️ 🙏
I put a few paper towel in my greens clam shell and it keeps the greens fresher longer. If the paper towel gets wet I change it for a dry one. A small dish towel works as well. Love the idea of cleaning out the random ingredients. Great job!
I'm going to have to try the banana bread recipe, my boyfriend is double allergic to gluten so we have a strict gluten free household and I have a whole bag of almond flour i havent touched. Thank you for sharing your meals throughout the week, I love watching everything you put out!
corn tortillas are super duper easy, you got this! The only learning curve I dealt with was getting them as thin as I wanted. And you can totally sub the lard/oil/whatever for bacon grease
Girl!! Search for Quinoa Pilaf. It is really good will use up your quinoa. I also use dried cranberries instead of raisins. Also, there is a good rice a roni recipe for the Instant Pot.
Just watched the video & wanted to give you a yummy suggestion for your leftover banana 🍌 bread. Slice it, put it in the toaster or toaster oven, get it nice & crispy, then put butter on top. It is SOOO delicious this way!
The secret to cooking rice on the stove cook it for the time allotted never lifting the lid... then let sit at least 10 minutes again without removing the lid.
What an amazing job. Im doing the challenge also. Havent gone to the store for anything. I havent done this since my kids were young so Im curious how long we can go. Being a prepper and gardener I have always said 6 months worth of food is a safe bet in case things go South. We shall see lol
OMG, rice on stovetop my entire 60 years! Boil Double liquid to rice, cover & simmer low for 20 minutes with no looking or stirring. I loved this video. Packed with fun ideas! You are rocking the start of the pantry challenge.
Your doing great! You said you didn't like the word rules for this challenge... so how about goals, or guidlines?? Anyways I love that your using pantry items that you have had for a little while.... I think everyone has a few things we need to use up.... I have sundried tomatoes.....if I'm thinking of something off the top of my head..... 😆😅🤣 Thank you for sharing! ❤
ROFLOL love the slow lip lick of your puppy dog as you ate the banana bread!Almond flour is good if you are reducing your gluten. I like mixing coconut flour and almond flour but they tend to need more liquid. Don’t overcook it as it tends to dry out. You made it perfectly
Yet again an inspiration to us all. I’m trying to use up those miscellaneous ingredients in the kitchen AND although I’m not doing this pantry challenge I have decided to make a more conscious effort to limit my grocery shopping to once a month. And I do have almond flour to use up so that banana bread recipe sounds perfect!! I’m going to whip it up now. Thanks!!

Everything looks delicious! I'll be making some baked oatmeal this week!
Was this a limited time offer? I'm not seeing those add-ons when I get to the cart.
The zoom in on your dog licking his lips when you were eating the banana bread was perfection 😂 I actually laughed out loud!
Ditto!
Same! Love them doggos :)
I CAME HERE TO SAY THAT! LOL
That was hilarious
I saw his face too that's what my dog does he loves my cakes and won't eat store bought cakes just mine.
hey becky!! i am definitely, without a doubt, much younger than your intended age range. most of your viewers are definitely old enough to be a parent (or maybe even a grandparent!) of mine lol. that being said, I've always loved cooking from an early age. I think that maybe I first realized it on my tenth birthday when I asked for a good five cookbooks on my birthday, as ten year olds do.

i love how tomatoes look on the vine but something about raw tomatoes just don't sit right with my taste buds
@@minovermatter me either unless I pick all the seeds and "slime" out, or if they are in salsa. I never put tomato on anything else.
@@hannahkayee831 definitely agree, I'm 33 and my 3 year old loves watching "Becky who cooks"
She does not respond. Ever
Thank you for sparking my cooking and baking spirit again. Depression put me a dark place for so long and your energy and passion helped me come alive again. Thank you!
Hope you're feeling a little better now 😊
April. I hope you are doing well. ❤
I agree.
I live in South Africa and live kneading my own bread, until I made your bread today, so quick and easy and delicious. I also make my own pasta but today I made bulk pasta for the first time too. Thank you Becky you are an inspiration to me at my ripe age if 60. I love and enjoy following you so much.
Send you a big hug from austria (a tiny country in europe) because becky inspires the world ...yesterday i did bulk potato gnocci...😍😍😍
This is so fun to watch honestly. You're so passionate and dedicated with everything you do, you inspire me. Big hugs 🤗
Same. She deserves a show on the Food Network.
Agreed!
Quinoa is great to throw into other dishes to just add some nutrition. I throw 1/2 cup of quinoa into each pot of soup, chili, oatmeal, spaghetti, lasagna (tomato sauce), fried rice, stir fry, etc. It's amazing how easy it is to add that extra "umph" of nutrition. I also throw some Chia seeds into lots of baked goods, like muffins, cake, brownies, etc., for the same reason.
Good ideas, I have a bag to burn up myself.
I cook it and throw it in salads. Love it.
Great idea to.add to other dishes for added nutrition. I'm going to start working my way through.the huge bag I have, my family all.complain about it but think they'll be up for having it added to other dishes.
@@beccihayward975 I wish you luck! My husband and I don't even notice it in most dishes, and in the ones that we do it's absolutely fine. I also heard about scattering already cooked quinoa on salads and putting it in chicken salad, egg salad, tuna salad, etc. I haven't tried it, but I probably will this summer.
So true. I love to put chia and sesame seeds in everything I can. Scrambled eggs with toasted sesame seeds are sooo good
I would suggest to prepare your masa earlier or even the day before and wrap in plastic wrap. This will allow the moisture to hydrate better and the result is a tortilla that doesn’t crack. I also add more water than on the instructions
Bread tip: you can use the instant pot on keep warm to let the bread rise when the kitchen is cold
That's brilliant!
@@jennawinkelman8260 I would love to take credit for it, but found the idea looking for a pizza dough recipe
@@kathiesicurello9484 I wouldn't of heard of it with out you stating it here though. So thank you!
Ohh That’s a great tip! I should try that!!
Really? I'd be afraid it would be to warm! Maybe I'll try that tomorrow!
Update: I've been cleaning out my fridge, cabinets since I first started watching your videos several weeks ago. It's been SO SATISFYING to go through these long neglected ingredients and incorporate them into delicious recipes! Thank you for the wonderful inspiration and encouraging my creativity in the kitchen! Your channel has truly been a blessing to me, in more ways than one.
Here are a few fun recipes/techniques I've made recently...
- Spaghetti squash chicken & kale Alfredo bake
- Black bean, mushroom and onion burgers
- Tortilla chips, from store bought tortillas. They were awesome!
- Carnitas, mushroom and tri-color refried bean burrito bowls (out of canned black beans)
- Coconut chicken curry over rice (made my own rice for the first time)
- Paleo brownies and banana nice cream
- Hotdog Philly over salad
- Quinoa noodle spaghetti
- Pan fried bacon (I've always made it in the microwave before)
I don’t know if you have ever tried it but to peel your eggs a little easier if you crack it just a little and then stick a spoon under the shell it almost peels it completely together, and it super quick.
Becky, you menu plan more than you think. When you cook a month's food for the freezer that's your way of menu planning, and very effective too!
Hey SoilSista!! This was great... You totally kept me company while preparing supper for tonight. Ha! That oatmeal is genius... I'm usually a SeaMoss smoothie for breakfast but this was so easy and sounds delicious. I absolutely love salad, so I'll be making salad tomorrow. Thanks for sharing, and tanks for spending your awesome energy. Many blessings to you SoilSista 🙏🏾
I LOVE when she works outbin the garden with the siunds of thebchickens in the background! Definitely can relate to feeling like you have company to homemake with
In December my hubby broke his ankle. In January I slipped on the ice and broke my back. So…. February Pantry Challenge was started. Our first time! We are loving it! Forced us to go through and use up those unusual items that have taken up space. This is also helping us use our garden bounty that we worked so hard in canning in 2021. Thank you for sharing your life with us!
Becky, I learned a tip from watching Mary's Nest on UA-cam. Turn on the light in your oven and place your dough in their to rise. It works like magic. This way you can make your no knead bread in just a few hours. I use this technique for all of my yeast breads. My kitchen is really cold in the winter even though we have central heating. Hope this helps. Love, Debbie
Your channel is super fun and I'm impressed with your energy level. Side note on yeast proofing - you need to mix the salt into the water until completely dissolved before adding the yeast. The granules will kill any yeast they come in contact with. The same goes for dry ingredients going into yeast, you should thoroughly mix in the salt first to avoid killing some of your yeast
Man I love all of the content. I learn so much. I just recently made my own bbq sauce, and I was inspired to do it because you make your own sauces like ketchup and pizza sauce. Mines not canned bbq sauce (don’t have enough/appropriate storage for much canned goods) but I just put the bbq sauce in a big ketchup bottle in the fridge! Keep going Becky!
To ease into a weekly, menu plan begin with a 7 day (columns), 3 meal (3 rows) grid; I like a 4th short row at the bottom for comments, notes, and sometimes prep ahead todo's. Then concentrate on one meal of the day until you've got that one working for you meal chart wise; give yourself permission to fill in the other meals if its not a problem.
To begin, plan in 2 or 3 day increments using the 7 day chart; give yourself permission to dot additional meals for during the week and even begin the next week's 7 day chart early. Or, plan 2 to 3 major cooking events seperated by blanks during the 7 day chart. Then fill in the blanks using the left overs, or making multiple meals from a single, from scratch cook. If dinner is the meal you're concentrating on, feel free to fill in the lunch cells with a dinners left overs. In your case, at the onset of the week decide which freezer meals you'll be eating on which day; put them on your meal plan chart. Then distribute the leftmovers in the dinner and lunch cells following; including any "reconstitutions" or use of the left overs as the base of another dish all together. When filling in about (before and after) a major cooking event, take a survey of the refrigerator and counter top perishables to consciously include them. Many, many people fill out thier menu plan every couple of days versus once per week or once per month.
I'm also doing the pantry challenge. I also order from Azure Standard. when i get any cheese i buy 2 - 5 lb. bricks, 1 I slice (I work at a restaurant) and shred the other. Last month I got pepperjack and cheddar. and i had left over cranberry sauce from Christmas so I made grilled cheese with pepperjack and cranberry sauce. Becky, I love your channel.
That sounds good
No one better could appreciate the jewel of cast iron pots than you, Becky. So sweet of Josh to gift you something to encourage your craft. The Finex pans are gorgeous. Love to watch you spice your food. Nothing stingy about the way you do it. Pilaf looks delicious…will try it. Til next time.
1) I love your nail color, 2) all your food looks delish, 3) glad to see someone else put butter on their banana bread...my husband thought I was nuts when I put butter on mine.
@@pennynickels5216 never tried that, good idea 👍
My Hubby gives me the eye squint & roll when he sees me put butter on anything. He doesn't like butter & I only use organice grass fed butter. I keep telling him this butter is sooo good for you & you can only get certain nutrients from butter, so it's a win win for me 😁👍.
I would love to find a good recipe for homemade cream cheese, I don't like all the unknown additives they're putting in Phillidelphia (sp?) Cream cheese these days. Our Publix supermarket hasn't had their organic Greenwise cream cheese for months now 😐.
He uses preserves on all his baked goods except for those that don't need anything extra on them 🙃
@@pennynickels5216
Thank you soooo much❣
I'll have to find it. I have everything I need to make it from your list 🙆♀️❣
🌿🌺🌿 You made my morning 🌄 ❤
I like to lightly fry mine in a bit of butter... basically to warm through and toast the outside but allow the butter to coat both sides 🙊😁
I love to watch you cook!! I like your commentary on rules being restricting. What about guiding principles instead of rules. That gives a connotation of moving forward instead of rules which hold you back.
Becky, you motivate me every day! Thanks for doing an almond flour recipe. Our son has Type 1 Diabetes and we rarely get to use regular flour because of high carb count and where he does have a baked item we use almond flour, way less carbs!
My dad is diabetic. Do you have any recommendations for recipes or websites?
@@caithemburrow5569 wholesum yum has great stuff with the carb count (recipes with sugar substitutes like Swerve) and any keto recipe through google. My tip I tell family is: son has approx 50 points (points = carbohydrates - fibre) for a meal so learn nutrition labels! Make sure the dinner isn’t 100 points when you add a dessert. As you start to understand how many carbs are in foods it helps you figure out healthy meals for diabetics! Lots of lean meats and non starch veggies so you can have a small dessert. Hope that helps!
I've been a subscriber for a while and I think this was the first video that I've seen your husband in lol I really hope he knows how blessed he is to have you. I know the videos are edited but in nearly every one I've seen, you're so thoughtful and considerate of your husband, it's so wholesome and heartwarming. Not to mention the mental and physical energy you dedicate to real food meals for you both ❤❤❤
Becky and friends....I know this isnt the video for the lasagna, however. I seen you had a new video and decided it was a perfect opportunity to encourage everyone to watch the lasagna video. I watched it this morning and made it for a late lunch. Heavenly and a definite keeper!!! My husband said it was the best lasagna he has ever had and I have to agree. It was amazing and very easy to put together. I thank you sooo much!! Go watch it people and even better make it!!!
It's on our menu for the next two weeks. I can't wait to try it
In which video exactly did Becky this recipe? :)
@@lyr8364 Making an Entire Holiday Meal From Scratch.
It is on my list for this week!
I made it too! It was incredible!! I especially love those noodles she recommended using!!! I have some to a close friend while her husband was hospitalized and she absolutely loved it as well! Thanks Becky
I don't know if this is something you would do, or that all your audience would like to watch this, but I think your usual hairstyles are so fabulous! Could you do a video where you show us how you do some of your most commonly worn hairstyles?
The past few weeks we have had a cold snap and my bread was not rising either. I started putting it in the microwave (not turned on) overnight and now it rises BEAUTIFULLY.
Yes! The microwave is an excellent proofer - I find on especially cold days, I can microwave a cup of water for 2-3 minutes and the microwave stays warm for hours.
ooooo good idea! we keep our house pretty cool. I will try this.
You can also try turning the stovetop light on if your microwave is above the stove to make it a little warmer.
I do mine in the closed but turned off oven, but with the light on inside!
I put mine in my dehydrator
I love this type of video!! This and the freezer meal cooking days are my favorite. I draw such inspiration for menu ideas for my own house during them! With that said, I watch all your videos and love them as well, so keep all the content coming! 😃😉 Thanks so much for sharing all you do!
Best thing I did this year was chop and freeze bags of onions. Then when I'm cooking and need onions I can just grab what I need. So quick and easy and then your onions don't go bad on you!
Love watching Becky and when you say “Just add a little…”, cue huge big cups or spoons of whatever the ingredient is. Who would love to go to Becky’s and get a “small” slice of cake 🙋♀️
Especially the chocolate layer cake,
Becky, I swear your personality is magical✨✨. Your videos cooking from scratch reminds me of my past raising my 4 children. I love cooking and baking from scratch.
I just found your channel and I’m hooked! This is my favourite kind of content. I live alone but I love batch cooking so I don’t have to cook every night. Loving all these meal ideas!
Almond meal/flour makes a great breading for chicken. I mix it with Parmesan shaker cheese, and spices lightly fry in coconut oil.
That sounds really good!! Definitely have to try that
Hi Becky! So happy you posted today! So far I have used up some items way back in my freezer. WOW that pan is beautiful very nice. Yay!!! make tortilla chips to go with that amazing salsa ♡
Just a side note: you look so good and rested (old moms like me notice these types of things...lol) Working all those full time jobs were exhausting you. Great effects and editing !!
Becky, I've only recently discovered your channel, and I binge-watched your videos on a daily basis. I'm so impressed with your knowledge and skills. Thank you so much for inspiring me to be more efficient, adventurous and creative in the kitchen.
When you figure out how to bottle your energy, I am in. Lol. Love all your content always so down to earth and helpful.
Me too😁🙋♀️
Me three! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️🐨🇦🇺

A trick I use to keep hard boiled eggs better in the refrigerator is to put a couple of paper towels in the bottom and up the sides of the lidded container you use to store the cooked eggs. This method keeps the eggs fresher longer.
I get so excited every time you post! I think I'm addicted. 😂 In all seriousness, thank you for taking the time to make these videos, even though I'm sure it's difficult at times. I've learnt so much and I'm getting more excited about growing my own produce in the future to be more self sustainable and with cooking and preserving (at the moment I'm working on just keeping houseplants and herbs alive 😅). I'm doing the pantry challenge with my own rules where I look for the older stuff I've got in the pantry and try and include it in my cooking (or as a side) wherever possible to use it up. I'm trying to make 1 meal a week entirely with the things I have in the pantry. It's working well so far for us considering my husband and I live on 1 income. Excited to keep watching and read everyone's comments about how they're going with this pantry challenge. 😊
Okay, Becky I have one for you. Could you do some freezer meals during the pantry challenge? Even if it’s just like 5-6 meals total, it would be so cool to see what you could come up with to stash in the freezer when you’re in a pinch!
Wow that was so much info and inspiration packed into one video! I can’t wait to see what I can dig out of the pantry! Just a side note- I like when you do voice over- I find it restful because it feels like you need to strain your voice the other way. 😊
Hey Becky you are such a rare gem in this day in age. I love that you love cooking and gardening. So inspired!!🥰
That banana bread looked so perfect! Almond flour is just like fine almond meal so it doesn't absorb moisture. I usually add some cinnamon or oatmeal to help suck up the moisture when i make a similar pumpkin based bread.
PNW (Eugene, Oregon) girl here! Love the Go Macro bars as well they are my fave! I just recently found you, and SO glad that I have! You inspire me! Thank you for sharing your homestead videos with us - They are wonderful! 🌲💞
Thank you for the rice a roni recipe! I bought a 25 lb bag of rice for $6 at my local store so now I’m trying to make my way through it. This recipe will be perfect for my family.
Yes!! Skiing!! We went the same weekend but to hoodoo! The snow was probably the best we’ve seen, it was perfect.
The close-up of your pupper was priceless! I may have to try the almond banana bread. I wonder how it would be toasted or grilled with butter in you new pan?🥰
If you have an airfryer, i put my eggs in at 260F for 16 minutes, then cold water for 5 to 15 minutes. No Fuss no muss hard boiled eggs every time! Im on keto diet and I dont eat until 10 am, and that's what I have for my breakfast sometimes, besides oatmeal.
Girl, you are amazing. I love your energy, creativeness, knowledge, and multitasking abilities. You inspire me to simply take that first step into something new and go for it. I appreciate you and everything you do.
I live in Lexington ky zone 6 b. Every year I over winter cold hardy lettuces, chard, kale with hoops and row covers. We just had 10” of snow and it’s totally fine. You could definitely do this in zone 8
I'm glad I am not the only one excited about kitchen equipment for Christmas. My husband gifted me a BOOS cutting board!
I bought my first dutch oven for my hubby to give to me for Christmas! (Yeah, I buy my own gifts! LOL)😄
Almond flour is great as a breading for fish. Mix with garlic, salt and pepper and parsley. Egg wash the fish and dredge the fish in almond flour mixture. Pan fry the fish in just a little oil. I love it on steelhead.
I’m doing this as well with a twist, of course, lol. Pulling everything out of the pantry, taking an inventory and dating everything. Also using Canuary to can a lot of the dried beans as well as “fast beans” from RoseRedHomestead. So, canning and dehydrating are in the mix as well as shopping my pantry. No grocery trips with the exception of pet food, pint jars, etc. No food! Also, my try item is making my own oat milk…I have so many oats. 😂
You are always challenging yourself, Becky, which is delightful to see. I can’t wait to see how the goldfish crackers come out. Fun!
This is so fun! I love seeing your foods and how you end up throwing things together. Ill admit as an aussie A LOT of what you eat is alien to me but its fascinating! & everything ive made of yours has been as delicious and awesome as it looks!
Becky, rice maker is something that is rarely used in uk. Ive never seen one in electrical shops to buy. The best way to cook rice on stove is in my duch oven. Cover with water just couple inches over rice. Cover with lid, Bring the rice up to boil, when hot water to a rolling boil, turn down to low for 10 mins, turn off stove and leave for 10 mins. Done, the trick is to leave rice alone, dont stir and you will be left with soft fluffy rice. Taken me over 25yrs to finally get it perfect ever time.
In addition to your chicken salad mix, I add chopped apples and chopped walnuts to mine. I like to make mine the day before so it’s nice and cold, and the flavors marry. 🥰🥰
"fresh" dill in the winter = process dill fronds and freeze. Use from frozen. I store mine in a ziploc bag. They have such little moisture that the texture is the same. I love it on salads as it tastes nearly summer fresh.
Not a homesteader..but I decided to try this so I been cooking only what I have in pantry,freezer & canned goods...😟 ....🥴 Becky thank you for inspiring me ....😘
I love watching you put the ideas of foods together especially the salad and seasoning. Thanks
I totally bought that seed organizer and I had no idea that I had so many seeds!!! So glad I got it. It was well worth the money.
HELPFUL HINT: Boil eggs for 7+ min in water with a dash of vinegar and salt. Rinse with cold water. Put an egg in a pint (or quart) mason jar. Swirl around gently about 3-4 times. Check to see if it needs to crack more. Don’t over swirl. Will easily peal.
Love watching you cook! Do you do take out? 🤣
This video was great as always! Also felt like we had a behind the scenes of all your other uploads from this week!
So fun! Thank you :)
another way to break up your pasta is to roll it up in a towel and bend where you want the pasta to break. It doesn't go flying everywhere and all you have to do is open the towel over your pan and pour it in. I'm guessing your rice pilaf dish wasn't too spicy for Josh? It looked wonderful!
I’ve been marathoning your channel Becky, it’s inspiring , detailed , and filled with personality . A recipe you have in place for keeping an audience involved ,from the very clever dishes in which you add to the viewers your personal taste , as foodies we can identify with this , thanks for all you’ve put into your efforts , top notch
This video is a masterpiece Becky! It was exciting and kept me intrigued the entire time! I bet this took so long to film and edit! It’s awesome! Thanks for sharing friend
I am doing this challenge very loosely, I did take inventory of everything and I’m trying to use up what I have for meals! It’s really awesome to have much lower grocery bills!
If you made a cookbook I would for sure purchase that so quickly!! Love your videos.
You are a joy! I spoke to the tv when you talked about pickling your onions , Freeze dry them !!! You will love having them for recipes, topping a salad, mixing into tuna , egg salad or chicken salad. Add them to broth, soups , chowder! Powder them in a food processor/ blender and use them powdered in dressings sauces any recipe. Love freeze dried shallot too!
You've inspired me to get some had-a-long-time stuff out of my pantry and use them. Fun video. Loved the close up on the dog! LOL
I just found your channel recently but I could watch you all day. You're so relaxing but at the same time you make me feel really excited and motivated to tackle certain projects. I just moved to a new home and can't wait to have a garden like yours some day.
You are amazing girl. I have 2 kids and life gets so hard. Watching your videos gives me hope that I can also be organized and cook delicious things every day. Bless you!
Have you tried egg salad? Mash eggs, add mayo/must/sweet relish/salt/pepper! It's delicious!
Egg salad is the best! I can also recommend adding dill and/or sour cucumber if fish is the main dish. I also like to add soysauce when making Japanese inspired eggsandwiches.
That baked oatmeal looks so yummy! I may have to give that one a try for sure. Just gonna share, I do a combo of Ina Garden and Rachael Ray for cooking hard boiled eggs and I've never had a green egg since. Set your pan of eggs/water on the stove, slowly bring up to a boil, let them boil for about 1 1/2 min, then cover with a lid, shut off the heat and let them sit for 20 mins un-disturbed, as they finish cooking in the residuel heat in the water, and after 20 mins, drain, give the pan a slight shake to break the shells a little bit and then run under cold water. Chill/peel as you normally would.
Yep that is how I do mine. Works every time.
By the intense look and licking of lips…someone would like a taste too.🐾❤️ The boys are looking for a snack. My dog Chewie HAS to eat something when he hears or smells me cooking in the kitchen. He also likes to eat whenever my husband or I eat. I’m home all day with him so I do free range eating. I’ve been disabled for 20+ years. I was diagnosed with MS at age 27. You have helped me to keep pushing forward. I try to keep active since I was paralyzed more than one. Last year I stared gardening. I’ve harvested a few green peppers and tomatoes. The green peppers I grew from a pepper I purchased. They are still producing now. I had a lot of fails because I went into gardening ignorantly. I’m hoping this year the yields will be higher. Oh and because you’ve spoken so much of Calendula and Echinacea I just planted them both from seed this week. You give me SO MUCH encouragement and I MUST thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m almost done watching EVERY video on your channel. I’m going to be sad when I’m done. You’re part of my daily routine. I talk about you all the time to my husband. Although I’m much older than you are we share a lot of the same ideals. More people should watch your video. Having order in your home/life makes life easier to live. Tfs sweetie. Have a great day.🤗
hey Becky!!! little trick I do when peeling hard boiled eggs is peel them under water... shell comes right... easy peasy!!! luv your videos !!! :)
Becky your enthusiasm is so contagious and inspiring! I always learn something too. Thank you for sharing with us.
I love this video! I love how you show when things don’t work out.. it makes me feel better to know I’m not alone😊
Great video. I’m visiting my son in Oregon in a week and we are going to Mt. Hood. I don’t know where you go skiing, but if I see you I will introduce myself.
Loving the behind the scenes feel of this!!
I have an almond flour chocolate chip muffin. It’s the best. I actually make it X4 and they freeze so well. My husband eats two everyday. We also swap out different kinds of choco chips. Peanut butter chips is our favorite.
2.5 C almond flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs
1/3 cup sucanat
2tsp vanilla
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup maple syrup
1/4 Cup butter melted
3/4 cup choco chips (white or pb can sub)
Mix ingredients together, I add butter after it has cooled a bit at the end. Original recipe says bake for 350° for 13 to 15 minutes. But I have found we like them better baking at 325° for 18 minutes.
I also cut back on the sugar and maple syrup when I make a huge batch.
Hi Becky , I’m so in love with your personality and enjoy your style..you have definitely motivated me differently in the kitchen.. I just have one request when you are cooking on your stove can you please turn on your overhead microwave light to give more light at the stove when cooking please.. sometimes it seems a little dark over there the light may help thank you ,and happy new year💜❤️💜❤️.
I'm only half way in and I just want to say you are awesome. I also wanted to let you know how I learned 2 of the things you did. One tip I learned about bread rising better as well as warmth is keep the salt away from the yeast. Mix it more into your flour after everything else. And the eggs I do for 4 min. In the insta pot. I'm loving this video. Many blessings to you ❤️ 🙏
Glad you tried freeze drying the coffee!
I put a few paper towel in my greens clam shell and it keeps the greens fresher longer. If the paper towel gets wet I change it for a dry one. A small dish towel works as well.
Love the idea of cleaning out the random ingredients. Great job!
I just can't stop watching these videos, it's crazy. I'm spending my Friday evening watching Becky cook and I'm completely content about it. :D
I love her energy too, and have stated making some freezer meals, using her recipies,
When I make my chicken salad i add granny smith apples and mix in curry powder with the mayo, it may sound weird but it's so good.
I'm going to have to try the banana bread recipe, my boyfriend is double allergic to gluten so we have a strict gluten free household and I have a whole bag of almond flour i havent touched. Thank you for sharing your meals throughout the week, I love watching everything you put out!
Her banana bread is delicious!
i use almond flour for baking and its fabulous makes lovely chocalate cake and use gluton free baking powder as well...x
Almond flour can make delicious gluten free brownies
Look at those numbers go up! 👏👏
corn tortillas are super duper easy, you got this! The only learning curve I dealt with was getting them as thin as I wanted. And you can totally sub the lard/oil/whatever for bacon grease
LOVE GETTING ALERTS ON YOU'RE NEW VIDEOS!!🤗
Girl!! Search for Quinoa Pilaf. It is really good will use up your quinoa. I also use dried cranberries instead of raisins.
Also, there is a good rice a roni recipe for the Instant Pot.
Just watched the video & wanted to give you a yummy suggestion for your leftover banana 🍌 bread. Slice it, put it in the toaster or toaster oven, get it nice & crispy, then put butter on top. It is SOOO delicious this way!
I try to always use red onions in salads, especially tuna or chicken salad. I love the taste and they look so pretty!
The secret to cooking rice on the stove cook it for the time allotted never lifting the lid... then let sit at least 10 minutes again without removing the lid.
What an amazing job. Im doing the challenge also. Havent gone to the store for anything. I havent done this since my kids were young so Im curious how long we can go. Being a prepper and gardener I have always said 6 months worth of food is a safe bet in case things go South. We shall see lol
OMG, rice on stovetop my entire 60 years! Boil Double liquid to rice, cover & simmer low for 20 minutes with no looking or stirring. I loved this video. Packed with fun ideas! You are rocking the start of the pantry challenge.
Your doing great! You said you didn't like the word rules for this challenge... so how about goals, or guidlines?? Anyways I love that your using pantry items that you have had for a little while.... I think everyone has a few things we need to use up.... I have sundried tomatoes.....if I'm thinking of something off the top of my head..... 😆😅🤣
Thank you for sharing! ❤
ROFLOL love the slow lip lick of your puppy dog as you ate the banana bread!Almond flour is good if you are reducing your gluten. I like mixing coconut flour and almond flour but they tend to need more liquid. Don’t overcook it as it tends to dry out. You made it perfectly
Yet again an inspiration to us all. I’m trying to use up those miscellaneous ingredients in the kitchen AND although I’m not doing this pantry challenge I have decided to make a more conscious effort to limit my grocery shopping to once a month. And I do have almond flour to use up so that banana bread recipe sounds perfect!! I’m going to whip it up now. Thanks!!
