The Easiest Way to Prepare an Entire Thanksgiving Meal Start to Finish!

Seriously, is ur mom ex military? I was in the Army, in my twenties and my OCD served me well. I had no problem being ordered to roll my socks into 4” balls or hv my locker all “dress right dress”. I thought it was funny that my behavioral disorder made rigid details “an everyday thing -normal”. Thanks for all the work you and your Mom did. It’s funny cuz I hadn’t completely watched all of this video, as I wrote the first part , so… when your Mom showed her To Do list, I lol. I do that too❣️ When I am doing a complicated meal, with lots of components, I create a time line that runs backwards. I start with #1 when I want to serve or eat, then cook times for each item. I write a draft first so I can more easily pencil in the time line, adjusting along the process. Then, you can put each item onto a chronological ordered To Do list. I keep a Master Copy for future reference, when cooking large proteins like Prime Rib, Smoking a Pork Butt or cooking a whole Turkey. It all sounds kindda complicated, but for me it reduces a lot of stress and frustration. You only hv to figure it out one time, then those “directions” will guide any future efforts. Cooking for two or for 20 doesn’t have to be stressful, if you “try” to plan away the stressful parts. We aren’t born knowing how to cook, or clean, or garden. We hv to learn from our mistakes and keep the desire to try differently next time. 🙂

You should have your mom join you in your videos more often. She has so many great ideas and she is a very calming influence. Puts me at ease and helps me chill. Preparing and hosting a big dinner on can be very stressful, but it helps if you deep breathe from the diaphragm and slow down your delivery of speech and recognize that it will all get done regardless of whether you spin like a top in a frenzy or chill like a leader in charge who gets things done calmly and methodically.

[@AcreHomestead]

Happy Thanksgiving!! Thank you!

[@karenlawson4888]

I am the queen of lists and I bow down to your Mama’s organization skills!! This is a great video, I loved seeing you and your Mama working together to bless your families with a delicious feast! I do miss working in sync with my Mama, but I do so love working with my daughters! We each have our specialties that we bring to share. You were pondering why you only think to eat stuffing once a year…it’s so you have something special to look forward to! There are several dishes and desserts that we save for only Thanksgiving and Christmas. I love that one of my daughter’s MIL decided long ago to celebrate their holidays the weekend prior to holidays. I think she was really forward thinking in that most woman go to their Mama’s for holidays, so she enjoys her son’s families every year even if it is a week early! This has worked great for our kids’ Friendsgiving feasts, too. When my Mama passed away, my sisters and I had to figure out how to recreate her specialties. So, I have in my recipe notebook not only my recipes, shopping and ingredients all listed out, every year I make notes of what worked well, what didn’t, ideas to try next year and any tweaks done or ideas I want to remember for next year. And, not to be morbid, but should I leave this earth unexpectedly, I hope that my notes will be a comfort and a prompt for good memories of past years. Oh, and I am going to start charting timetables like your Mama does, too! Thanks for sharing!!

[@cq8822]

I started to try new recipes for Thanksgiving and Christmas and that was a big Knogo from my kids. They absolutely love their traditional food that my mom made and that I made and they do not like it when I try to change it. 😁 I am with you though cooking with my mom was wonderful and now cooking with my daughters is so special and I have a son-in-law that joins in the cooking.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video ! It's really inspiring ! For the pumpkin pie, to make it even easier you can make your pumpkin puree ahead by simply cutting it in half and baking it in the oven at 350°F (cut side down) for 40-60 min. Then I just keep it in the freezer and take it out the day before or in the morning.

[@sarahmellouk3754]

Is that really all pumpkin puree is? To make it too, just cut in half, put facedown on pan & roast. Thats it?!? Lol. All this darn time ive wasted, wishing to find canned pumpkin puree & i couldve made it, sigh smh. Lol.

[@MrsOhlalaland]

@@sarahmellouk3754 i thought the exact same thing when I found out about this hack. I just make a bunch of pumpkin when it’s the season and then I have pumpkin puree for the rest of the year. If the puree is too runny, you just have to put it in a strainer and let the extra moisture drip. I freeze it flat in a ziplock bag.

[@MC-ko2mx]

Felt the same when I realised oat milk was just oats blended with water, applesauce was pureed steamed apple chunks. And now pumpkin puree has also been demystified, thanks to you!

[@johnhpalmer6098]

@@sarahmellouk3754 Indeed, then add the appropriate spices for the pie filling to that puree and put it into a pie shell and you have pie, once you've baked it. This way, you aren't having to cut, deseed, then bake before it gets pureed and can lessen the rush/stress of baking a lot of things in one day. It's amazing how many things you can do parts of the day before, or at times, weeks before and simply freeze, and one of those is the pie dough if not mistaken, just wrap in Saran Wrap, then into a freezer bag and freeze, once you make into a "hockey puck" shape before wrapping, or simply lay it on plastic wrap, then grab the plastic and form the pucks with it before wrapping up, saves a step there.

Om gosh, I thought my mother was the only person who put tags in her serving dishes. She also had a mini notepad that she wrote everything on. She too went backwards from time wanted to eat. Great moms think alike!!

This video just brought so much joy into my heart that I had a good hearty cry haha. Your mom seems like such an angel of a woman and your family in general is so beautiful. Loved to watch the food journey, everything looked AMAZING! Thanks for taking us along. My family still isn’t doing Holidays because of the state of things and it’s been a pretty tough time.

I lost my mom when I was six, love watching you and your mother together. I imagine this would be my life if she wasn't taken from me. Enjoy every minute together ❤️

Becky, I haven't started the video but I have to say thank you for thinking about us on this day. It really made my heart happy when I saw your video pop up. I appreciate you so much! After watching I have to say I'm so impressed and grateful that your mom and you did all of the work to share this meal plan. I learned some new tips and look forward to trying your recipes

Thank you for sharing your family's celebration 💖 I hope you had a wonderful time together. In the UK, we eat stuffing throughout the year because in most households it's traditional on Sundays to have roast meat & veg for lunch or dinner.

Oh my, I have never seen anyone make pie crust look that easy. wow, that was fun to watch!!!

I watch all your videos, and you've inspired me to get gardening. I just wanted to say I also have a fur baby named Gizmo. He's 13 years old and is nearing the end of his life. Going deaf and blind, has trouble going up and down steps. When I hear you talk about your Gizmo, I think of my baby. He is the first pet my husband and I got when we started dating.

Oh no! Your poor rolls! haha You have a lovely family! I just knew you were believer's. It's wonderful to see faith shared during these crazy times! God bless your family and Happy Thanksgiving!

I loved learning about your family’s traditions . They remind me of our family, who also celebrate on a day other than the holiday. It’s all about the sharing and love. Thanks for opening up your lives to us. AND, your mom is delightful. It is great to get to know her. I can see why you are the woman you have become.

First of all Becky, It warms my heart to see you cooking with your Mamma🥰 My mamma passed in 2015 and there is not a day that goes by that I don't miss her and would give anything to have her here with me. Treasure these times♥️ And then your father leading the prayer giving thanks to the Lord for so many different Blessings... Brought tears to my eyes ♥️ May the Lord bring you and your family peace, comfort, joy and LOVE. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays To You All♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏
