The large box of Jell-O might’ve made that a little more firm maybe that’s why it was written that way looks good

[@rosemarycreollo4326]

Yes! A large box of jello with half of the recommended water will result in firmer jello that won't be watered down by the pineapple.

[@denisequaid4599]

Yup! The large box and less water helps set it up better with all those goodies that are added to the jello 😊

[@tammyinman1699]

I thought so too 😃

[@heatherhays1141]

Exactly. Large packs of gelatin are hard to find in some places. If I see "large" box I just buy two small ones

[@SeriousBeagle]

And if you can’t find the large pack you can always use two small ones.

[@karengoodell964]

I would LOVE it if you put the bloopers back in!! They are sooooo 🤣

[@kristakeith4430]

The way you two interact together is so honest and true. You can’t pay for that!! Takes me back to The happy times before my husband passed away. We were married for 33 years and watching you is like going down memory lane, not too mention humorous . It’s like coming home. Thank you so much. Enjoy one another 😍the joy and tears (good) you bring cannot be measured.

[@asouthernsoul]

THANK YOU, Mandy for making and sharing my Mississippi Sliders recipe! And, I'm thrilled y'all like it so much. XOXO

[@keschneider]

Thank you! They are delicious!

[@sandramacarthur590]

I've done the Mississippi roast recipe with chicken and a pork loin roast. It's always good. 😊 Jellied cranberry for me!

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

I'm asking y'all to please pray for my daughter-in-law and granddaughter. She's having a few health hiccups and was admitted to the hospital. She's due next month with our granddaughter. Thank you in advance. God Bless.

You two are just the sweetest, I have really become quite fond of you both! As a live cook on Facebook, I think your videos are amazing, you can feel the care and love that you put into them through the screen. And you’re right Mandy, always measure cheese and garlic with your heart ❤ As I always say, a little bit extra for love! Lots of love and hugs from Australia 🇦🇺♥️🥰

[@sweetlifehappywife3460]

My grandma ALWAYS made homemade cranberry orange sauce. Everything from scratch back in that day and I carry on that tradition with it. Delicious video today Mandy!!❤🎉 I love the color of your lipstick 💄

[@mchays3889]

So glad you all liked it! I sure did make it and unfortunately had to share it with my daughters… 😂

[@keschneider]

I’m in the middle of making the Mississippi Chicken Sliders for a party we’re going to. Just wanted to hop on and thank you for the recipe. Already made this once before for my family and it was a huge hit! Love to you guys ❤

[@allisonalmand3222]

We have made the chicken sliders twice and they are a favorite! I'm a new subscriber but have loved your videos and recipes! We are in Texas. My husband and I have been together since I was a senior in high school so coming up on 24 years married and almost 30 years together! We have three girls and the oldest just started college this year and our youngest is in 4th grade! Keep going with the recipes, they are great!

[@mikealsegotta7042]

Always measure fresh cracked pepper with my heart! Love it! As for sour cream--my Auntie Mame made a lovely fruit salad with Mandarin orange slices, fresh sliced strawberries, banana slices and pineapple tidbits. The dressing is 1 cup of sour cream, 2+ tablespoons of powdered sugar and vanilla to taste. Ever so tasty!

[@paulandbenny]

Yum! Letting the marshmallows soak in sour cream for a couple hours makes them even more amazing. Making the big box of jello with the 2 c of water makes the jello salad thicker when the fruit is added.

[@grammyb5216]

I’m always so excited to see you all! THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏♥️

[@dianaw.571]

We enjoy a similar jello salad for Christmas and Thanksgiving. It calls for strawberry jello, crushed pineapple and frozen strawberries. You divide the jello mixture in half in one layer and refrigerate until solid. Then add a layer of sour cream and top with remaining jello mixture. Put in fridge to firm up. The sour cream cuts the sweetness of the jello. I'd like to try this recipe with the raspberries and sour cream/ marshmallow topping. Sounds delicious!

[@lilfamily]

Hi Y'all, I had my son (19y) make the Mississippi chicken in the instant pot, then we assembled together. We really loved these! Thanks for the recipe!

[@sfgruber]

My Mother-in-Law used to top her rhubarb jello with the marshmallow/sour cream topping. She used to mix it up and let it sit out on the counter, stirring it occasionally, until the marshmallows were almost melted into the sour cream. Yummy!

[@acdallas6356]

So glad y'all resolved the big box jello, less water issue. Right after I watched the video, I took a nap and had a dream about this, solving the problem in my dream. Woke up and had to find this and comment!

[@vuluptua1977]

Same as you with a few additions; garlic, cheese, onion and we always double the sauce recipe! There's never enough 😂😂 blessings and love to you and your family 🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊️

[@janettetalerico3134]

Love watching you and tater, it makes smile and laugh. My husband used to help me in the kitchen all the time. I miss having him help. He has had a battle with cancer and is doing great. But he can't walk, needs hip and knees replaced. So I still take things to him to taste. Thanks for sharing yours and others recipes.🦋

[@kathymaccrea8621]

I'm a Midwest girl and as a child many times what we thought was whipped cream to add to the top of our Jello salad or already on the Jello salad we were served in restaurants was actually mayonnaise. I would rather consider sour cream than mayonnaise. This salad looks wonderful and I will definitely have to try it. Keep the good recipes coming!

[@ebmoore9192]

Girl, that jello recipe has 100% my attention. At holidays 1 MUST BUY 2 CANS OF cranberry sauce for any to make it to table. Mouth watering ! !😊

[@pams6792]

I’ve been loving, binging your videos. And loving how you say ole and bole and fole. totally southern.

[@cindyredden6772]

I make the cranberry salad with cranberry jello and cranberry juice for the cold water. If you put the cranberry sauce in a bowl and lightly run hand mixer thru it it easier. I also put pecans in mine and only use the pineapple and cranberry sauce. Not the other fruit. For topping I put cream cheese,sour cream,and 1/2 cup sugar. Spread on top and sprinkle with pecans. So good

[@janetdarrah1222]

I wanted to thank you for introducing Caraway pots and pans to me. My children had purchased a set for me for mother's day in the blue. I LOVE them, never had cookware like them. You are so right about easy clean up. Nothing sticks to them. I made no bake cookies and never had time to clean it before I left, so when I got home, of course, I washed the pot, and it slid out like I just made those cookies. I love your videos and tried a few recipes. I'm excited to try the sliders. Hope ya'll had a great time at the lake.❤

[@deniseheins2133]

We make the Mississippi recipe with chicken often. I don't make sliders but I serve them on French Rolls with white cheddar cheese and some of the juice for dunking. Pretty darned good!

[@nicolegrabowski5704]

That sounds delicious!

[@hippietoherbie]

Hi Mandy and Steven, Love your videos! When I have too many tomatoes in the garden, I make what I call "Tomato Glut Sauce". Using a large roasting pan, core the tomatoes, no need to peel them, and cut them into large chunks. Add chunked onions, bell peppers, (maybe a jalapeno since you like spicy), garlic, zucchini (not too much though because it is so watery). Add Italian seasoning, salt and pepper to taste. This whole recipe is "from the heart" as I have never measured anything, just used what I have lots of. Cover the roasting pan and put into a 375 degree oven and roast until everything is reduced, soft and starting to get good color. The time depends on how much you fill up your baking pan. I also will stir it a couple of times while it's roasting so everything cooks more evenly. When it comes out of the oven, let it cool a bit, then put it into a food processor or blender in batches and blend into the best tomato sauce you've ever had. Taste for salt and pepper after it's blended. I freeze this in recipe sized portions. Enjoy!

[@bridgetmarden3345]

Cheese, garlic, onion, and heat..... measure with my heart always! Love y'all ❤

[@squisitissima2810]

Mandy, you should try to make sundried tomato pesto. There are a gazillion recipes online. You can make use of some of the herbs in your garden. Making pesto is super simple and it's great on pasta, sandwiches, pizza, etc. it's wonderful for these scorching hot summer days. P.S. Those sliders look incredible. I am definitely making those!

[@abudhabig0ld]

My mother who was born in 1901 always told me you couldn't put pineapple in jello so I never tried to, another thing is the big box of jello with the small box liquid measurments makes a much firmer jellow, you might want to try that, it's really good and it might make all that fruit set up better.

[@robinthornton8282]

Our family makes a fruit salad with crushed pineapple, save the juice and dice 2 apples in it so they don't turn brown, a can of mandarin oranges drained, chopped pecans or English walnuts, banana if you want and you can put the slices in the orange juice from your can to prevent them from turning. Add in some coconut if you like, stir all that mess together add a whole bag of mini marshmallows and 2 cups of sour cream. You can add maraschino cherries to, but you really have to drain all the juice unless you want pink fruit salad. The combination of all of the ingredients together is so good and the only fresh ingredients are your apples and bananas. I use 2 of each. Now you need a really big bowl to mix it all in cause it will feed an army, sorry no measuring done, great for a potluck or church get together and is nice in the summer time. We often have some type of variation of this at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Unfortunately I can't have the coconut anymore and all my fruit has to be peeled. But save the juice off the oranges and the pineapple and use it for the fruit that turns brown. Some kinda good.

[@whitneyharken1042]

I just love watching you and your family! You make me smile! 💕

[@kathie1126]

Hubby is NOT a fish eater ... but the Pesto Pasta looks amazing! I will try making it with some chicken, which he will eat and I think will pair wonderfully. Thank you for sharing all your favorite recipes. Love them!

[@marshamellow2023]

Tried your paper towel when cutting onions hack last night. It worked great. Those red onions always make me cry but no tears last night.

[@littleonion7171]

You are seriously the cutest couple I have ever seen. Good for you guys 💕💕

[@jmbear628]

substitute use what ya got recreate are all good cooking tips. glad you are a home chef showing home cooking that you have enjoyed.

[@briannehill7583]

I am so making the Mississippi chicken for our next family dinner. Usually every sunday my son and his family comes over for dinner. This weekend we have a member meeting at church so we will have to wait for the following. But that is something they will absolutely love! Thank you for the idea. We are having your greek chicken salad with pitas tonight.

[@heatherhays1141]

Garlic and vanilla are heart measured. The cooking gods tell your soul how much you need. My son was called out by his high school cooking teacher for pouring vanilla into the bowl during cookie making. His response was that I told him vanilla isn't measured by "normal" ways

[@patriciastack3099]

Tried all three instead of fish I used chicken and added chopped pecans to the toppings for the jello salad they were all delicious thanks keep them coming

[@terihoy7945]

I make a jello salad similar and add the cranberry sauce before adding cold water. And then use a potato masher. It kind of melts.

[@kimberlybitz6363]

I made the strawberry shortcake for my church picnic on Sunday, and I came home with nothing! My church devoured it. I only made two little changes to the recipe. I added in a little vanilla extract in with the powdered sugar and cream cheese mixture, and I put fresh strawberries on the top of the cool whip. Thank you again for sharing it!! It’s now going to be a staple in my house.

[@shannonmcmullen3916]

Whenever I get the notification for your video, its the highlight of my day!!!!

[@amyrockenbach7028]

Totally agree that cheese and garlic are measured with the heart ❤️

[@patriciameyers788]

I’m so glad you and Steven can laugh while you cook. It seems that just makes my day. Have a great weekend ❤😂😂😂😂

[@lisahoward1969]

Always makes my day to watch your videos, Mandy. ❤ These look so good! I don't know what's been taking me so long to make the Mississippi roast or chicken but these sliders are tempting me even more. The jello salad looks refreshing...jellied cranberry sauce for me! Must have the ridges from the can 😂. Love Steven's thought about food..." food has no chance around me" 🤣 I agree with him. Y'all have a great weekend.

[@LLJerseyGirl]

I love the color of your lipstick! I always have a can of jellied cranberry sauce on hand and it goes great on cold meatloaf sandwiches too! Yummm! I think I’m going to try the last recipe but with vegan pesto and either tofu or soy curls…it looked so good. Also, using hot water to plump up your raisins when baking (bread pudding, muffins, breads, etc.) is such a game changer. I used to do it with rum zapped in the microwave for a little extra deliciousness.

[@shannonjohnson9819]

I just watched this video last night and then had a dream I made the sliders. Of course I had to make them tonight for dinner and they were a huge hit!

[@hollywolfgang6047]

I had my first taste of sun-dried tomatoes!! I bought a pouch of tuna that had ball n sun dried tomatoes!! It was yummy!! I've heard of soaking the sun- dried tomatoes!! I'm sure they're all great suggestions!

[@debraeckler7477]

I just spent some time on Lake Keowee in South Carolina. It was so beautiful and relaxing. Hope you had a great time. Love your videos.

[@melissab1044]

These recipes sound delicious! Love the Mississippi Chicken sliders and Raspberry Jello dessert!

[@jbeckrich]

Hello there, Y'all are so much fun to watch! Do you have a cookbook or planning one for the future? Love so many of your recipes and I keep going back watching your "entertainment" cooking and would love to have them in one place. Keep the good stuff coming......

[@patibarrera2874]

Usually when your adding other ingredients to jello you use less water. Also let you jello start to slightly thicken then add all your other ingredients, so they don’t sink to the bottom.

[@nancyrold3148]

Love all of your recipes . You have given me so many new ideas for meals . And just have to say , I love , love , love Gracie Lou .🤗

[@CourtneyCooke143]

Y’all are seriously the cutest! And these Mississippi Chicken Sliders are delicious 🤗😊😊

[@Boatpeep]

All of this looks incredible. I grew up in Southeast Alaska, but now live in Georgia. I sure do miss all the fresh salmon and halibut!!! I guess I'm kind of a fish snob, because I am spoiled by the best. Measure from the heart---chocolate chips! Like, who only puts in half cup of chocolate chips into something?! I'm surprised Gracie Lou wasn't in there when you were cooking the halibut! Hugs!

[@JanetBrown-px2jn]

A lot of the NYC,and NJ supermarkets sell golden raspberries,but they are not as flavorful as the red ones,like white peaches.Growing up in the UK in the ‘40sand 1950s we made jelly salads with lime jelly,and mandarin oranges,pineapple,and bananas, and often mixed cream right into the jelly.I don’t think I have had that since I left the UK 57 years ago.

[@dianadean5994]

Those sliders look yummy so does the jello salad. Yes we share veggie in our neighborhood. Enjoyed thanks for sharing. Hugs to all 🥰

[@bethcovey4973]

Love your videos and recipes. Cheese, garlic and peanut butter are what I measure with my heart.

[@urarmychick87]

The Mississippi recipe I follow uses au jus gravy mix too but that on sliders looks amazing!!!!

[@sandyrekau5779]

I like jellied cranberry because that’s what I grew up with.

[@catinaray4013]

I have to do leftover night for my Husband and I because we have four children and I learned how to cook from my time in Louisiana and Texas. They are all grown now and we are empty nesters. The struggle is real.

[@mdketzer]

I am a jelled cranberry girl. I love sun dried tomatoes, I just eat them as a snack. You can also find sun dried tomato paste in a tube to get just the flavor! I love Steven’s reaction to the sliders. They do have gold raspberries! That salad is a southern thing, I am surprised you haven’t heard of it. Halibut is my favorite even more than Salmon but it is so expensive here in CA! Definitely cheese! You two are so funny!😂. How come Gracie Lou didn’t get any parmesan!

[@rhondahunt9888]

Try the prepared uncooked salmon from costco that comes with pesto butter. It is not wild salmon but the best for avoiding fish smell. In my studio apartment, smells linger too long.

[@kellyschoepf2002]

I made the sliders but with a German mustard and all I heard from the kitchen when my picky 10 year old went to get some was "this is so flipping good". I had to remind her we needed to save some for her dad

[@barbarabelt701]

I agree about the sun dried tomatoes. 9:23

[@tinalaws7506]

I just love you guys! That last recipe looks amazing! Gracie Lou has very refined taste in cheese!

[@matilda4903]

The big box of jello with the lesser water amounts will make your jello set up better with the added ingredients. Even more bettah with well drained fruit.😊.

[@sherlynpatterson4304]

Yes. Pineapple is usually the culprit when jello doesn't set up correctly. You need to towel dry the pineapple after draining the juice. Yes, there is a white raspberry.

[@dianejohanson98]

I make Mississippi Pot Roast and make hoagies with the meat, mayo and Provolone cheese. So good. I have to try the chicken and make these sliders. Looks so good. On the dessert, you probably should have used the large box of Jello because it would have firmed up better with less water. Not box directions. I love the jelled cranberry the best.

[@jenniferhazel5990]

I wanted to tell you. When I was watching this and you were talking about using sour cream, you were hesitant. It made me giggle. I was there in the past. My grandmother would make sour cream salad. One big container of sour cream, mini marshmallows, a can of pineapple tidbits (drained). Add some shredded coconut. I try it and see if I need more coconut or marshmallows. After all that is mixed together. Top with mandarin oranges. Let chill in the fridge. Sounds so weird but dang good!! We love it in our family!! Try it and see what you think!!

[@_wife_mom_mimi_1587]

My husband's family has a recipe that has a dessert similar to this with blueberries... so good 🤩

[@bonniegallagjer4380]

My mom use to put that topping on sliced bananas and sprinkled amino dark choc chips was so good

[@Truthinthestarspsk]

Just made the slow cooker chicken tonight. Two words: MAKE IT!! 😊❤❤ Going to make street tacos tomorrow night w/ the leftovers 👍 Thanks so much, I so enjoy watching you guys!! xo

[@jenniferfogell5706]

My Aldi’s sells sun-dried tomato pesto and I sub that in recipes that call for them. Aldi’s also sells a basil pesto. There was a creamy chicken pasta recipe that called for the sun-dried tomatoes and basil and I just used both pestos, it was still extremely delicious.

[@toastedmarshmallowkitchen7911]

I’ve seen that sun dried tomato pesto but haven’t bought it yet. Totally going to get some next time I see it!

[@amandacostandine6026]

Also on sun dried tomato...we put some in a dish with a little water (just a tiny bit) and put them in the microwave for 30 secs to a min, it sort of poaches/rehydrates them so they aren't chewy.

[@alicep3286]

My favorite ingredient that I don't usually measure is vanilla...yum

[@chinesesquawk]

Maude knows what time it is! After all, her name is "Maude"!! (and then there's Maude.... doo ta dooo)! Thank you for ALL your content, it's much appreciated! Your relationship gives me Relationship Goals! and Your cooking gives me Cooking goals!! Hundred Percent. Also, I am a HUGE fan of Miss Gracie Lou... I'm always happy to see her get her share of "Cheese Tax" and or "Fish Tax"!!

[@grammaof6inmo]

I have learned to use less water when making a jello salad. Takes care of the juiciness of the fruit.

[@countrygirl2745]

I love that the two of you can make each other laugh

[@PinkMartiniAZ]

I'm surprised you have never heard of or had sour cream in a dessert. You have to think of it like cream cheese, which is in tons of desserts, like cheesecake. Cottage Cheese is sort of like that as well for those types of dessert salads. Thanks for sharing the recipes, they looked and sounded really good!

[@sandybowman7140]

Mandy I just loved these recipes & I'm anxious to try them! Thanks for all the comedy and real outakes - u 2 are hilarious!

[@lavernejones4471]

Hi Mandy. Everything looks great! I’ve never tried the Mississippi roast with chicken. I almost commented about what you said about measuring the cheese.😂 I feel the same way. Thanks for sharing as always.🤗💕

[@patricialee1477]

You had a Greek pita which is folded over exactly as you did it, Mandy!. Have you ever had a gyro (yeero) ? The Jello would have set up if you had used the 6 oz size with one cup each of hot water and cold. It's okay, you didn't know that wet heavy fruit requires more gelatine and less water. The instructions on the box are not for adding fruit or veggies. It is just to set the Jello.

[@briannehill7583]

Homemade cranberry sauce is where its at. Use orange juice and a little orange zest, vanilla, ginger , cinnamon and a teensy nutmeg. Super yummy

[@abbymoeller8389]

I can't even describe how excited I get when I see that you uploaded a new video!!! 😁

[@MandyintheMaking]

You are so sweet! Have a great weekend!

[@Hapgirl65]

When making your berry jello salad try adding a package of Knox gelatin . The recipe I have uses 2 regular size boxes of raspberry jello and one envelope of Knox. I put a can of whole berry cranberry sauce in and 1 can of undrained crushed pineapple. This sets up very solid.

[@mightymouse3393]

Thanks for always sharing tips - like the sun dried tomato blenderized! Super helpful tips and I AM with you - it's a texture thing. But cream cheese is uh MAAYYYY zing 😄Sorry Steven. Much love and thanks for all of the content - totally appreciate you!

[@lexijones8019]

My family recipe does that dessert but with celery and mayo and only the cranberry. It’s soo good

[@alishagomez-vm3yu]

I gonna try this..that's look delicious..I try your 1 dish,the mashed potatoes casserole with chicken tenders..wow my hubby love it,thank you for sharing that wonderful recipes ☺️☺️

[@rebeccabangert9119]

Everything looks yummy! When making a jello salad, if it calls for a large box and I can't find one, I always use 2 small boxes (large is 6 ozs and a small is 3 ozs)

[@shelleynielsen6411]

Everyone needs the mix n chop !!!!

[@dorothymeyer693]

Prayers requested for my sister-in-law who was diagnosed with liver and pancreatic cancer. Hospice was called in. Thanks in advance for prayers.

[@nicolekaminsky9596]

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe Aldis sells a subdried tomato paste in a tube sorta like the basil, pesto or ginger they sell in the tube. One time I needed sundried tomatoes for a recipe but didnt have them and I had that tube so I used that to achieve the same flavor.

[@lauramiller7690]

I think maybe the jello salad was jiggly are because you were supposed to use the larger box with less water so therefore it would be thicker and setmore usually two small boxes equals one big box

[@pattiestarzynski]

Measure with my heart, garlic, onions and cheese ♥️

[@veldajeanadams8913]

I make that ello salad the only 2 things i leave out is the Cranberry Sauce and Crushed Pineapple as I hate both I put Cherry's and Blackberry's instead

[@kathysantos2594]

I'll eat either Cranberry sauce, but prefer chunky with orange zest in it but my husband & daughter only eat jellied. We are definitely are trying these!!! Yum, yum.

[@audreycasassa1683]

Measure with your heart - GARLIC!!!

[@amyrockenbach7028]

I make orange cranberry sauce on the stovetop. Super easy and so delicious on turkey sandwiches.

[@jenwithjvinco3734]

You guys are adorable, I love watching your videos!

[@JudiSnyder-y1j]

Use the large package of Jello with the less amount of water as you would for a small package and your salad would have set up like you expected. I have done receipes like that in the past. such a great video today................
