It's a nice gesture. But it's not like she is doing this for free. A youtube video with 1 million views makes at least $3,000 in ad revenue. She benefits and so does her sister, but it's not like me or you doing this for no money.

My daughter just Monday (less than 48 hours ago) had her 4th child. Now she has two boys and two girls. I want to make her some freezer meals before we fly home in two weeks. This video is timely for me.

[@AcreHomestead]

Congratulations!

[@denisefonda2815]

Becky, where were you when I had my children? Actually, the truth is, you weren’t born yet, my boys are in their 40’s. In any event, you are so generous and some of these meals look and sound delicious. Congratulations on your new nephew, glad to,hear that all went well🤗

[@ellenradford8582]

I have to say here in the south, a lot of churches set up.a meal train for families during births, illness, and deaths. We have been on the receiving side of this many times. I have also been on the giving side and it is really great.

[@donnabennett2546]

My daughter also gave birth to a daughter in the early hours of the 8/4/24 but I haven’t been much help as I’m a full time carer for my hubby,but I’m going to prep her a few meals for the freezer so she can rest with the little one without having to stress about cooking a meal for her partner when he comes home from work.This vlog has given me some good ideas.

Becky, you are a beautiful soul. You’re not only helping your sister but you’re helping so many people with your vlogs. Josh fell in love with you because you’re just as beautiful on the outside as you are in your heart and spirit. I’m sure the meal was just a lovely bonus 😊. Thank you for your light in this sometimes dark world. We need more Becky’s in this world ❤

Next time, save the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. It can be put in fridge to use in salad dressings or frozen in ice cube trays for using to saute onions, peppers for extra flavor in recipes. 😊❤

[@britneygehrts722]

It emulsifies beautifully into mayonnaise

[@jakemelinko]

I didn't know you could freeze oil❤

[@carolynturk-hu7je]

​​@@jakemelinkoYes.

[@donnarodriguez4755]

So, several years ago when you started prepping your freezer meals, I started doing them, too. However, since my handwriting is illegible and I gift a lot of meals, I bought 4x5" labels in bulk and used an online well known label design application to type up all the different labels. All I write in is the date, # of servings and I left 2 lines on the bottom for notes. Everything else is already preprinted and saves me from making mistakes or omissions. For some folks that have allergies, I also later added a list of basic ingredients (like "includes dairy, butter, soy, wheat, corn, etc). The labels have been a game changer and eliminated any questions.

[@parkwood6334]

Great idea

[@Sharsung]

Perfect start for this video. I immediately liked and subscribed, based on content and you, Becky. Bless you.

I love that this video is an hour. I know most creators make short videos, maybe due to short attention spans, but I love when a creator takes a deep dive and really shows us everything. Thanks!

[@gratituderanch9406]

For me, it’s not about my lack of attention span, I rarely have an hour to waste “television”, which is basically what KZbin is. I at least try and watch things that are edifying and helpful like this, but I always have to speed up and fast-forward because I don’t have an hour to sit around. Nothing I think they’re lovely and I like that all the information is there . Maybe it’s not all attention that’s the problem . ❤

[@SalyLuz-hc6he]

@@gratituderanch9406 I often need to watch things like this while I’m washing dishes, folding laundry, etc. chores. Sometimes I listen while driving. We’ve all got to make the most of whatever time we have! And almost everything I listen to is sped up a bit, except for the languages I’m learning where I need to pay close attention to pronunciation etc. ✌🏼

[@leeannjohnson1808]

Seeing so many homesteader/ family channels, I am SO happy that you do not put your child in the public eye! What you leave out of your videos is every bit as important as what you put in. I have a 13-year-old granddaughter and had to tell her mother, my daughter, #1 My granddaughter's profile picture was WAY too mature for her (then) 10-year-old self. I then backed that up with how many sex offenders lived less than 5 miles from their house. Our children only get ONE childhood, guard it and guide them! If we don't, the wrong people will.

[@Julie-si3hi]

Absolutely agree. Bexkys channel is fabulous meals gardening and no private life !

[@debbyc1026]

Absolutely agree as well. If you KNOW, you KNOW!

[@user-mc3tp5sd2z]

Kitchen tip: You don’t need to get disposable pans. Layer your 9x13 Pyrex pan with foil with overhang, fill it, then freeze. Once solid, lift contents out of Pyrex and wrap in foil and store in freezer. It takes up less room, and when you go to use, unwrap and plop back in pan. Pretty much everyone has one of these pans.

[@mansfieldfamily5389]

Not sure how you'd do this when you're making a whole bunch of meals at once though.

[@user-mc3tp5sd2z]

@@mansfieldfamily5389 she has several Pyrex pans she got for this purpose. I don’t have the freezer space Becky does, so I make one for the oven, and double the recipe so I have one for the freezer. Once it freezes, I pop it out of the pan, wrap it and put it back in. Then when I go to cook, take out of the freezer, drop it into the pan to bake. This saves me freezer space.

[@shimshimshirrie2]

oh I love this idea!!! i know it won't work for everyone since you'd need a couple of the casserole dishes on hand to freeze in, but they're easy to find at the thrift store!

[@julievarner8273]

ps if you wanna save more time making cookies: make a pil/sausage from the completed dough, 2 inch thick. wrap it plastic wrap. Refrigerate for min 30 minutes or freeze. When you need the cookies, cut aprox 0,5-1 inch and bake. Sorry for my very bsd english... Sending love from the Netherlands 😘

[@Tigertame4]

That is a wonderful idea, Thanks.

[@crystal7743]

I do that, makes things easier

[@juliabphillips]

❤ Great idea!

[@carlynsykes6053]

I do this too! Then late night, one of gets a craving for dessert I’ll pull it out, cut off some slices and just bake half a dozen cookies and put the rest back. One batch of dough can last for months. You could even pre-scoop them but freeze before baking, like with your biscuits or the little garlic pucks. Then you have little nuggets to pull out for the sheet pan and don’t even need to dirty a knife. Hmmm, I might start doing that. Will take up more space in the freezer though and may not last as long.

[@BlueRidgeVirginia]

I have done this for more than a decade. I wrap in wax paper, though, not plastic wrap. Then I place the roll into a 2-gallon Ziploc bag where there are several other frozen cookie dough rolls. All are labeled, stored in the same big Ziploc bag, and at the ready for baking.)

I cannot think of a more wonderful and supportive gift than this for an expectant mother, especially one with two other children already! Your sister will no doubt think of you with love and gratitude each time she makes up any of these to feed their family. I've NO idea how you're able to get SO MANY MEALS made in such a short time frame...well, actually that's not entirely true. I kinda do. You worked your butt off putting up all the produce from your garden so that you could just open jars and frozen veg in freezer bags to make up things more quickly! But still, it's AMAZING how many meals and treats you managed to make up in one long morning...absolutely amazing. So loving and supportive of you!

[@ChristyKiser]

Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your kitchen and all the wonderful recipes! I have been watching for a few weeks and just completed my first big batch cooking of freezer meals. I am a widow and found it hard to scale back and just cook for myself, so usually just shared what I made with my daughters or parents or friends so I didn't eat the same thing several days in a row. I was in the habit of cooking a few meals on Saturday and just re-heating throughout the whole week. My oldest daughter works second shift and mentioned it has been hard to cook healthy meals when she is tired after her shift or got busy and forgot to thaw meat before leaving for work. She has issues with her blood pressure and wanted to stop getting fast food or restaurant meals so much due to amount of sodium in them. I decided your meal planning/freezer meals would be the answer for both of us. I printed a ton of recipes from your videos and other websites and put them in a 3 ring binder in sheet protectors (I ended up with 2 of the 3 ring binders full). I also included several of my own tried-and=true recipes just to have everything in the same place. I spent a day shopping at Costco and Aldi and the next day started cooking. It took me 2 days (5 to 6 hours each) because I can't stand for long periods of time due to injuries from car accident years ago. I ended up with 6 different breakfast meals and 14 dinner meals for each of us. I made the lasagna noodles, tortillas, and sub rolls from scratch. Total cost was $290 which we split. I packaged my meals into smaller portions so ended up with more bags/containers than she did, but now I won't have to eat the same thing several days in a row and we both have nutritious meals ready to go that will last us quite awhile. Her husband loved what he ate so far and said we need to do again and they both will help so it goes faster and doesn't flare up my pain levels as much. I am looking forward to that as it will be quality time together too! Thank you for the inspiration! I have been baking since I was 5 and love spending time in the kitchen, but your process helped me kick it up another level. You are a blessing!

[@jhwilliams6550]

I love that they are going to help you make the next batch! I made the pot roast in a jar and gifted them at Christmas. I’ve had requests for more so I’m taking my canner to them so they can help me. I’ve done one family and it was really great to work together and saved so much time.

[@itsme-mt2fo]

Next time u do the blueberry muffins, toss the frozen blueberries with some flour to they're well coated. That absorbs some of the moisture so it doesn't need to bake longer and it prevents the batter from turning blue

It's getting very warm here, in the 90s by Tuesday, but I'm trying to buy a rotisserie chicken from Sprouts every Monday for a while, for broth and freeze the chicken for salads, etc, over Summer. You taught me to use the slow cooker for broth and I used all of mine before fall last year, during illnesses. We get sick during the tourist seasons and it was so good, I'm sure it helped heal us!! Thanks for helping me can meals for those dreaded summer days.I 'm actually getting beautiful tomatoes and will be planting Everglades Tomatoes this weekend. Thanks again.

I was just making a list for a month worth freezer food. So nice watch you doing big prepare also❤ now adding muffins! Perfect idea for my kiddos!

[@rosebrinkey699]

What a wonderful sister you are! Congratulations to your sister and her family!

[@taneriapollins9225]

You have inspired me. I did a double batch of strawberry jam, double batch of triple berry jam and strawberry lemonade concentrate. I am planning my freezer meal cooking day now. I have made your parmesan chicken twice. It is so good. I have a Blackstone. I love it. Krusteaz has the best store brought mix. You should buy paper plates and forks in bulk since you do a lot of meals for people. They never go bad.

Hello Becky, I love your freezer meal videos. The meals are even more special when you use the majority of the ingredients that you grew in your garden and also preserved them. It is wonderful how your family takes care of each other. I love your channel.

Congratulations to your sister and her family, welcoming their new boy!!

[@denisepineda1788]

Your sister is lucky that you take the time and resources to prepare these meals for her. The meals look yummy!

[@tericamcginnis5848]

Your videos have reminded me about freezer meals ahead. I started about a month ago in that direction. Today I enjoyed the benefits. I pulled a meal for the crock pot while I made a double batch of oatmeal raisin choc chip cookie dough. i made some cookies and froze most in pan ready form. I portioned out my Greek yoghurt in "pucks" for individual servings and froze them. Then I cleaned a kitchen drawer and vacuumed! That was it for me! I was happy to have my frozen meal bail me out! My goal is to start doing more freezer meals. I only have the stamina for a few hours on my feet these days. But it does help. Thanks for your time and sharing. 😊💛🐸💚🐸😎

Not only learning from you but also just watching and resting. Perfect job, and your voice it’s really calming. Love from Portugal 🇵🇹

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you Becky. You are such an inspiration to so many. I want to do freezer meals but I have no ideas. Then when I watch you, I have so many. Keep up the good work. Thanks again from Alabama. ❤

I love that I just stumbled across your channel! We live on a boat, with our three boys, and meal prep is a necessity for when we have long journeys across oceans! No one ever wants to be inside the boat cooking for more than a few minutes. All great ideas for this sailing mama! Thank you 🙏 ❤️⛵️ also, what a great sister you are. Sure you all bless each other in your own ways, but really this is so kind and thoughtful of you.

I wants to say a great big thank you, Becky. I learned from you when I cut onions or peppers to bulk chop and freeze those not needed for the recipes and freeze them . I recently had a fall resulting in both shoulders sprained, injured knee and broken left arm (at the end where it meets the shoulder so can’t be cast. Have sling and have to immobilize for two weeks) So glad I had those chopped veggies in my freezer. I am left hand dominant so struggling to do every day task. Freezer meals are saving my hide too. Thank you

[@cam7460]

Watching you relieves my stress. Thank you!!!!

[@Rylee-l5k]

Congrats to your sister! I have been doing the same thing with all the meal prep today. I managed to get 6 family meals and 8 individual meals done, plus a bunch of veggie prep items I like. Gardens are already in here in TX so I’m getting a lot busier now.

Hi Becky first time viewer (and now subscriber) here! I just wanted to say what a wonderful sister you are. I lost one of my sisters years ago and just feeling the love you have for your family through cooking was a beautiful thing to stumble across. I wish you and your family health and happiness!

[@dotty8931]

How many of these recipes would my family eat? Almost none. Am I going to cook any of these recipes? Almost certainly not. Did I still just sit through an hour long video. Yes, yes I did. This was oddly relaxing and extremely satisfying.

[@karencates5007]

You are a sweet sister and what a blessing to live close to your to her! Enjoyed watching your video!

Great work! I never boil the dried lasagne sheets. No need if they are well covered with sauce. Thank you for the video. Appreciated!

What a great gift to your sister! I'm going to start giving the gift of food. I mean everyone eats and it's so nice to have something you can make in a zip if you need a break and don't want to cook. This is great! Glad I found this channel ❤
