[@veronicacanisalez9519]

Abby lol I love how you are so original on YT and you don’t have to make yourself look put together every single time. Thank you for being just you. 💕

[@junec.rodriguez1115]

I love that too

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Thank you!! I don’t have enough energy to put make up on for a video often times

[@jodidonaldson2923]

Texas caviar is absolutely amazing!!! Although mine is a bit different. I do a combo of yellow, red, orange, and green pepper, jalapeno, red onion, shoe peg corn, celery, black beans, and red kidney beans. For the sauce veg oil, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, and splash of water. ....totally out of this world!!

[@patches1483]

Yum!

[@paulanelson1884]

This is just like my recipe! Yum

[@nicoletierheimer3546]

I used snowboard googles(don’t laugh) when cutting onions until I finally got a chopper. Game changer!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Hahaha that hilarious but I love it!

[@veronicacanisalez9519]

How about a video of the favorite dishes your husband loves that you cook. I have 2 boys and sometimes when I cook healthy their like mom where’s the meat lol

[@jeannagordon8214]

Adding feta cheese to the Greek salad would finish it off nicely.

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Yes!

[@TaliGvir]

Hello from Israel I'm so proud of your achievements you have gone a long way in the last year in a half

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Thank you so much!

[@isisamun-ra2479]

Ok biggest take away~ brilliant!! dump ranch packet into the sour cream tub!!! #mind blown 😂 here i thought i was the queen of not using extra dishes!!! Love that trick & those potatoes&all of it look yummy.

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Gotta make it as easy as possible haha

[@kathybridges3343]

I love your videos, so homey and you kids are precious 🥰 and I want that stove. Lol

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Thank you!

[@patches5965]

Watching from a hotel laundry room washing camping clothes. Love the broccoli salad! I add cauliflower and use stevia, to the mayo and vinegar. Yum!

[@sherreepeterson3496]

Every dish you made looked delish, I’ll be trying them all. Question, what are your favorite you tubers to watch?

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Natalie Bennett, the wads, Kendra Atkins, Mallory Ervin are some of them!

[@cassiemccarty2790]

I love the recipes you make. Since we all love you and support you 110 % will you please start making some good, easy WW recipes for the ones that are doing points? That would be wonderful. ❤️❤️❤️

Same!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

🤣

[@Willettee]

All these are lake worthy and would taste great with grilled pork, chicken or beef. I really like your t-shirt. It speaks to my Southern heart. ❤️ Thanks for sharing Abby! 🙂💗🤗

[@1TsuNami]

That’s what I was thinking. On the weekends, many times we will grill “meat for the week” then all I have to worry about are the sides. Makes it very quick during the week. These sides would work Great for us! During the winter, my crock pot chugs away most days. 👍🏼

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Yes perfect with those! I completely agree. You are welcome!

[@donnavincent8630]

Abby girls so cute. My kids always played with Tupperware and pots and pans. Never could figure out why I had a playroom for them loaded with toys!! Loved all the recipes. Great ideas for summer. Glad you're feeling better. You truly have the most adorable family.

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Thank you ❤️❤️

[@bethanyg153]

Try subbing lime juice for the apple cider vinegar. It’s amazing!!! Living in CA for the past 6 years, it seems like citrus just crawls into my house. Like literally someone is always asking if they can give me some, but lime substituted in broccoli salad is my hands down favorite thing I’ve tried with lime. Give it a try!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

I will! Thank you :)

[@peachy8432]

You can add grapes and cashews to the broccoli salad.

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Sounds delicious thanks for sharing

[@jeannetonnar4899]

Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to try the broccoli salad and the potato salad…who doesn’t love potatoes, ranch, and bacon with cheese!!! Yummmmmmm

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Same girl!!

[@jillianbritz7342]

[@pennyyager6123]

I just made up the Texas Cavier. Just the recipe I needed to use up some produce. I have everything I need to make the ranch potatoes too. Can't wait to make it also.

[@Bribear1977]

My mom said I used to sit in the Tupperware drawer & play for hours.

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Yes! I believe it

[@lindahines4960]

Those side dishes looked delicious!! I’m going to fix all of them and I’m serious. I work all day Monday- Friday and broccoli salad is going to be 1st on the menu. Can’t wait to see your next video ♥️

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Thank you

[@tanyadelaney8455]

I do the potato ranch with ranch powder and sour cream. I sometimes substitute with plain yogurt. One of my favorite recipes. And everyone loves it

[@deannamiley6258]

You inspired me to make broccoli salad. It’s chilling in the fridge as I type!! And I got ingredients to make the potato salad

[@amandaribofpalmetto]

Similar to the Texas Caviar, we make a dip with corn, gorbanzo beans, red onion, bell pepper, ranch season pack and bottle Italian dressing. So good!!

[@cathyfeigert5660]

These all look delicious! Thanks Abby!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Thank you!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

You are so welcome

[@ashleycapps1720]

I could eat just sides all the time. So thank you! This is right up my alley. 😁

I have often had that exact same thought, Ashley. haha

Me too! Sides and dips all day

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

You are so welcome!

[@jennifergrooms4153]

LOVE all these ideas!!! Going to def try the ones I haven't made! When I make the broccoli salad, I add mandarin oranges! Also, with the "salsa", instead of fresh tomatoes, I add a can of Rotel. And if you use the hot Rotel it gives it a little bump! We call it "Cowboy Caviar"!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Love it! Sounds very similar

[@bonniepwtf]

Always great, inexpensive ideas. Thanks Abby👋💟

Looks delicious!! I make a broccoli salad that is similar to the one you make. It is oh so delicious.

[@angelafleming3328]

We are eating tons of cucumbers, cherry tomatoes with dip. I have them growing in my garden so we have a 6 or 8 cucumbers each week so I am putting them out with every dinner. Great ideas for hot summer days.

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

I love cucumbers! Homemade pickles are great for those

[@randilynnefontaine5969]

Adding feta cheese to the Greek pasta salad would be amazing!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Yes I forgot it and I was so sad

[@susieQ666]

these are very creative n a much needed reminder to just chop veg n dip ...i needed that for sure ...my go two is a huge salad ... 🧡💛

[@monicavalentine8472]

Great video on sides

[@heatherfortna8466]

Abby the tip is when you slice a onion wet a paper towel and place it on your cutting board or beside you when cutting it works wonders give it a try..Thanks for the great side dishes..

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

You are welcome

[@evelitzarodriguez3512]

Super, I will definitely try some of them.

Be sure and turn your pot handles away from edge of stove when little ones around

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

My kids know not to touch and my cabinets are higher than normal so my baby can’t reach. Thank you though

Thank you!

[@evelitzarodriguez3512]

Abby I just made the Ranch Potato Salad and let me tell you that WE LOVE IIIT!!! :-D

[@joolzmac1]

The veggie chopper looks nice and sturdy so I’ve just ordered one. I bought a cheap version a while back and tried to chop half a small onion and all the wire blades bent out of shape. You get what you pay for, I guess!

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Oh no I’m so sorry! I’ve almost had mine for a year and it’s amazing!

[@josephcarter743]

What is the tool you are using to dice stuff? Awesome videos, as a bachelor I just take a recipe of yours then eat the leftovers all week lol.

[@amandawilliams5219]

@@Maplecook I was a little surprised, pleasantly so when I saw those dishes! Almost every KZbinr I watch has a spotless kitchen when they film. But these videos are like real life. I was like YEEESSSS GIRL! Most of the time I have to empty one side of my sink to be able to drain pasta etc. 😂😂😂

Mine is always filled 🤣thank you!

When cutting onions, keep a water-soaked dish cloth right next to your cutting board. No more onion-induced tears! It really works lol

You already might have said, but I haven't heard you say what you do with your veggie scraps. Freezing till you have enough, then making your own veg stock is easy-peasy.

Do you have any gluten free dessert ideas?

I’ve never tried GF cooking honestly

[@rebeccagreen8948]

Can u try a regular recipe and use gluten free or organic items . I am getting older and had to change some things up in my life...

[@dyanwinn7375]

What veggie chopper do you use?

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

It’s in the description box

[@valnsky]

I have never tried raw broccoli. I know it is reaaaly good for you, but I always steam the hell out of it before I eat it. I just do it automatically-I see broccoli out the steamer goes🤣

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Try it this way! It’ll taste better the first time this way haha

[@laurent4254]

I purchase frozen chopped onions or have my husband chop them all and freeze them so I don’t have to cry every time I add onion to a recipe.

How come you didn’t use your produce chopped for the onion on the broccoli salad?

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

It was dirty

[@anetzband1383]

I've loved every recipe, and envy you for the pot filler. One little note--my mind hears every note of the background music and my fingers then know how to play the sequence. By the end of the video even though the volume had not gone up, all my mind could hear was the sequence--over and over and over again. That was extremely distracting to me. I'm sure it was fine for many, but just wanted to say in case you could vary it a bit.

[@thesimplifiedsaver]

Sorry it distracted you. I can’t please everyone 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@anetzband1383]

@@thesimplifiedsaver I ended up turning the volume off and then hoped I was getting whatever you would say whenever you would start talking again. I'm not trying to complain because I really appreciate your videos, but for me personally I would rather have had no music than to have the same sequence repeated ad infinitum. Your videos please me a lot.

[@jessicatounkara8753]

Hello!

Why do you always throw the bottom of the green onion away, that hold a lot of flavor, you should use it.
