Big Family Dinner Routine! | Will They Like It?

[@susanglarum9050]

There are so many non-dairy and lactose-free cheeses that Hannah could try. Being dairy-free doesn’t mean dull. There is even lactose-fee cow’s milk and ice cream. And of course many dairy-free ice creams as well. All sorbets are dairy-free as well. Dairy-free items are usually refrigerated. I hope you can find these for her.

[@maysmith4906]

Right! And always make hers first so cross contamination doesn't occur.

[@pamelafranzen5725]

I make this but I layer in a pan-crumbs, chicken, cheese chicken and then crumbs. Cut into pieces to serve. So much faster and still tasty.

[@Bikesssss]

Yes! Violife, miyokos, and kite hill are my favorite vegan cheeses. Daiya and the hemp one I tried are my least favorite. I love SO delicious vegan ice cream, and ben and Jerry's dairy free, but actually used to buy trader Joe's cherry chocolate vegan ice cream when I still ate dairy

[@nopessme9186]

Thank you for this. Cause I’m lactose intolerant. And it sucks I feel like I barely eat.

[@aprilring1395]

Hannah is just very picky and fussy, definitely a bad habit to have

[@HomeCraftNThings]

Brody is so intelligent and expressive. He is going to be a great boss at what he choses in life.

[@AZPA-dh6fb]

*Brody

[@celinapalfrey6001]

I agree

[@chantellovesyou91]

I agree he’s very bright for being so young!

[@blakeexaviar9370]

I love Jamie's voice and her personality. She's very soft-spoken and she's really caring.

[@selenedewint9774]

I feel like Brody is really thriving ☺️☺️

[@kerrylynnparsons7879]

Everyone was getting involved in making dinner. That’s good!!! 🤗❤️🇨🇦

[@1004juli]

My dog passed away yesterday and this blog cheers me up. She was sick for a long time. I miss her so much.

[@OurJourneyHasBegun]

It would actually be really cool if you all came out with a cookbook! Or even a blog with recipes. I love trying new things.

[@jasonposey9896]

Jarred and Aaron need to do a cookbook, I'd buy that.

[@jennifermassie7227]

I'd have leftovers for a month or more!! Lol

[@tricyb7600]

Plus a cooking channel

[@mamaharriett2]

a crazy prices cookbook with recipes for big family and beyond crazy needs to do one for smaller familys.

[@D-M-J]

Definitely

[@abbyray5947]

I love that most of the kids we’re helping with making dinner.I love how you all sit down together as a family and go over highs and lows.Aurora is just so cute.much love to you all Crazypieces!!!🥰🫶

[@amyfluffyfluff880]

With the weather getting warmer I think it would be so fun if you would consider putting up a raised bed in the backyard so your kids can grow and pick some of their own veggies and maybe some fruit like strawberries, raspberries, blueberries etc. And Aaron could grow chillies 🌶, bell peppers 🫑 also fresh herbs and potatoes 🥔 (I think it would really help with them wanting to eat more healthy if they can see it grow, it's so rewarding to see and eat what you've grown yourself)

[@D-M-J]

Good idea

[@helenh20mo]

Brilliant idea .. I had wondered why they haven't tried something like that

[@meghahn7634]

Combine the cookbook with the crazy middles and add Joe and call the book the Crazy Family cookbook! Oh almost forgot to include Aunt Bonnie and Grandma Joann!

[@kellyatwell3493]

Definitely should do a cookbook of Crazy Pieces and Crazy Middles recipes. Taco soup, pasta salad, Aubrey's desert's and all your guy's

[@turner2540]

great idea

[@D-M-J]

Great idea

[@MarkLyonOHIO]

Or a cooking channel called crazy family cooking

[@D-M-J]

@@MarkLyonOHIO ooo yes!

[@matildajane22]

I'd buy that from NZ! 😁 You guys have some really yummy looking recipes!

[@madisoncobb4002]

You can get the lactose free milk and ice cream at fry’s. You can get the lactose free cheese at either sprouts or fry’s. I personally haven’t found a lactose free cheese I like because of the consistency plus lactose free cheese doesn’t really melt very well. I hope this helps Hannah. I have been lactose free my whole life and I am in my 20’s. Plus I also live in Arizona.

[@SammieScotia]

My momma made me a homemade cookbook for my birthday a few yrs back before she passed away and she wrote a note to me in it. I keep it in a special box but I use it. But that special box is in my nightstand in case of an emergency I know where it is and can grab it. It's one of my most prize possessions. I love it and miss her so much. I was adopted at 3 weeks old. That cheez it chicken looks amazing, can't wait to make it. Thanks for sharing!

[@maccifyme]

I'd buy a Crazy Cooking Cookbook if you made one! There have been many times I wish I could recreate what you or the Crazy Middles are having for dinner since it looks so delicious.

[@ednanelson1897]

I love that name for a cookbook

[@411w44]

Mastering the art of just making some favorite dishes for others will make many happy. The love of cooking and food and sharing a good meal with loved ones.. That's hospitality! ❤

[@gwenbrack5311]

Former first grade teacher here. I used to have each child share something they learned that day/something good that happened as their "ticket" for leaving the classroom. The back reason for this was in hopes they would be able to share when asked, "What did you learn/do in school today?" The best answer I ever got was, "I learned about prison marks." We had covered tally marks in math that day! I thought this answer was too cute so I didn't correct the terminology ... and then I got a note from that parent the next day wondering what had been taught! 😁

[@hannarod7018]

I love Brody so much, he seems like such a bright light!

[@sharonmckenna7186]

When I pound chicken I put it in a bag and use a rolling pin if you don't have a tenderiser tool. I love the way Aaron shows his loving side to you crystal xxx

[@angiearrowood5954]

A cook book with Crazy Pieces and Crazy Middles recipes would be wonderful.

[@kristenbeal8333]

That would be awesome!!!! I was thinking the SAME EXACT thing earlier!

[@ruthobrien3466]

I love that you all sit down to dinner and go over everyone’s highs and lows. You gave me a idea for my cornflake chicken all I have to do is add the cheese and put them in the muffin tins

[@beckiekosey7567]

I like listening to Aurora speak, she so adorable. Her speech is getting better.

[@fionawood2473]

What about doing a chart with everyone name on it and the meal for the week across the top? Then, each person writes in the score, so over time, you will find out what is favourite and what not.

[@japcrp4151]

Love your idea about making a recipe book. As I would really like to have some of the recipes you guys make. Or maybe you could share the links to recipes in the description? Anyway, thanks for sharing. Found you guys by accident several years ago and can't stop watching all the "crazy" family links.

[@victoriarivera3511]

I love how everyone likes to be apart of making dinner and each learning in their own ways

[@janwagner7818]

Enjoyed watching- loved the team work and the chicken looked delicious-great idea for the Crazy Pieces Family Cookbook-thank you for sharing❤

[@malearemele6382]

With tenderizing chicken when I was in culinary school we had to butterfly the chicken breast and then we'd take a cutting board lay down plastic wrap put a tiny bit of water then a bit more water on the chicken another piece of plastic wrap and pound it with the tenderizer on the spiked side. Butterflying the chicken before tenderizing will help it not take so long

[@Mysticsoul77]

I love that you guys do highs and lows. We've done this too but we always do the high last.

[@zayearcelo9814]

i love this family so much and i always wait for their vlogs everyday.. i love how hannah do her make up.

[@judelally9278]

If you want to flatten the chicken faster you can get this tenderizer that is all in one steel handle with a large rectangle end that is flat one one end curved on the other use the flat side with cling film on the edge of the counter so you don’t break the counter. Not sure what it’s called. Also you could butterfly the chicken first so that it’s faster

[@annem6722]

The cheese-it smashing might be made easier with a rolling pin - can either roll them or hit them with it - just a technique I do when making the base for a cheesecake.

[@verashepardcorhn8486]

I need to try this one. This is just like the crazy middles. Love watching both families ❤ 💕 😍

[@nancybaldwin4893]

I love it when the kids help cooking dinner making memories. I am gonna have to try that because it look yummy delicious. Our granddaughter always helps me to cook and I love it because it’s memories that will last a lifetime and Crystal if you make a cookbook I would buy one from you and if Aaron made one, I buy one from him to that would be awesome. Love you guys.❤❤❤

[@sophierosen9977]

I watched many videos on Chinese chicken recipes and I learned how to tenderize chicken breast and even pork and beef, the key ingredient is baking soda. I add a pinch to raw meat in a storage bag with other seasonings and let it sit for about 15 minutes or longer and I sometimes add a marinade sauce and it's the best.

[@sonyavillanueva4474]

I remember Crazy Middles making that on their channel, it looked so good. I want to try it with Takis.

[@nancymae6063]

i think you should definitely come out with a cook book called pettits pieces

[@jessicarodgers6336]

Make a cook book (or channel might be more fun) with the Crazy Middles and call it the Keep It Crazy Kitchen 😎🙌

[@brendad940]

I hope everyone has a great week! Sending love from Wilsonville Oregon

[@kristenbeal8333]

How long do you bake the chicken for? Shelly and Jared just made the Cheez-It chicken on their channel a couple of weeks ago. IT LOOKS DELISH!!!! Much Love Always, Kristen B💕💕💕💕

[@joangleason8362]

That dinner looked fantastic 😋 😍 👌

[@beverleywright2963]

That dinner looked Amazing love it

[@dawnthomas2037]

My mil made family favorite recipe books for the whole family for Christmas. I love it and constantly use it. I am going to definitely try the cheez-it chicken. Looks good.

[@Anqiliaq]

i love how Aurora looked at Crystal after she was cracked the egg jus remind me when Trey look at Aubrey after he cracked the egg for idk what you call it maybe “confirmation” that’s they did good.

[@sarah-louiseheritage7285]

Love how some of the kids wanted to help with dinner x also I think Shelly's kids made chez it chicken xxx

[@Rxcki_Introvert]

I’m so proud of you all how much your achievements and accomplishments and grown from the first video I watched to now it’s CRAZY but so amazing to see yous all climbing the ladder right to the top ❤️ definitely my favourite channel

[@MrJking065]

Bella a prayer for you. It seems you had a very tough week. This new week, Bella you will excel in all the things you do, nothing will stop you from shining this upcoming week. I pray for you Bella that blessings you have never experience in your life, Bella you will experience it in this new week week ahead Jesus name. Amen.

[@scrappingscootergirl]

Cheez it chicken sounds delicious! Love that some of the kids are helping! ok now I need to try it!

[@hopemags9642]

Lucas your cheesy chicken presentation I give a 10/10 I think you have some great skills in the kitchen keep up your great work. Crystal thank you for sharing the recipe I definitely want to try this recipe, crazy middles just made this a few videos ago too I couldn’t remember all the steps lol. ❤ Aaron, I may put mine on my pellet grill in convention mode

[@rachelm1812]

I’d do that in layers in a pan. Chicken. Cheese. Chicken. Chezits. Then you could veggies in the between layer. Onions. Bell peppers. Mushrooms. Etc.

[@michelletello2060]

That's a brilliant idea you and Aaron should make a cooking book!!!

[@alyssaportz2388]

You all should consider writing a cook book. You have really good recipes that we all would love to try. You could call it “Crazy Cooking” and have a family photo on the cover.

[@katrina4690]

Try instead of making them in balls and putting them in muffin pans. Instead, wrap them up like u do with cheese then after apply the cheese it's put them in casserole dishes. Covering the dishes while baking helps keeping them from drying out in the casserole dishes. Try for maybe 20 to 40 minutes. Covering them through may make the cheese it soft so maybe keep in eye on the dishes and cover them if they start looking dry :)

[@katethomas2830]

I like how you guys cook as a family and it is always great to see joe in you videos

[@agriff1022]

I can't wait to see how this turns out. When I was cooking before I moved to where I am now, I made either Nacho cheese dorito chicken or corn flake chicken. The same concept as this.

[@nannysquid4982]

The cookbook idea is good...one of my cousins got us all to give her all our best receipes or ones we are known for lol n she did up a Family Cookbook n beside each receipe was a photo of the cook or cooks lol she did an amazing job

[@sherriexley2929]

What we do is each kid for the month plans for meals that they are going to cook and then we rotate every day on who cooks.

[@laurencallahan9019]

Hey Crystal ❤️ I made this for my fiance after I saw Shelly make it from crazy middles . And he loved it! Such a great idea. It was so good. Thank you guys for this recipe. I love your family! Have a great night. ❤️ Your biggest fan!

[@MarkLyonOHIO]

What's the recipe I want to make this

[@monayhawthorne9420]

I get so excited when you guys post I love watching your family and videos been watching since the very beginning dinner looks so yummy I would most definitely buy a cookbook so I can cook for my family you and Aaron are awesome parents

[@SharksRevenge]

You can do the same recipe with the chicken without the cup cake tins. Just roll the chicken and place it on a steel baking pan. Makes clean up so much faster.

[@SusieQ-nd3dy]

Crazy Middles did this not too long ago, must be an old family favorite from your childhood Crystal!

[@bblinhui]

you gotta season the chicken itself, best advice when cooking is to season every layer.

[@jacintacody133]

A wooden tenderizer is better, whatever you place the chicken in won't rip as easily as using a metal one,I always use the flat side,love to see everyone cooking.

[@yvonnearmstrong469]

Crazy middles done this a few weeks ago it looks delicious

[@mackenziehope3815]

When you make the cookbook, call it the Crazy Petit Cookbook!

[@julieyoung6387]

Recipe sounds good. I think everyone needs to get in there and help next time and maybe make them a little smaller. I might try it and the potatoes.

[@sherriexley2929]

Back when we were younger my mom would always make cornflake chicken in a roaster cooker, best chicken ever.

[@joro241]

Name of book... Crazy Cookin' Pettit style! I think it would be a Christmas present for all your adult/almost adult kids would treasure! They all seem so appreciative anyways...

[@dawnbailey4455]

One of the first "asks" I got from my kids when they moved out was family recipes. Now my grandkids is asking.

[@eveebunny]

Im laughing so hard at blister games!! I think we all had a made up games on the monkey bars in elementary! Good times!!😹🤣

[@dbergmann2090]

If your lactose intolerant you can eat dairy products that have not been pasturized. It's the pasteurization process that takes out the enzmes you need to digest it!

[@SystemAsherath]

Who else waits a couple days to watch new videos from them so you can binge watch like 3 videos in a row? It's a new thing I've been doing ☺️ love the family.

[@hafsyaq0]

I do this lol

[@sarakendall5315]

All the food looks so yummy and good job guys

[@tonyahooker5839]

I would love to have a cookbook with all of y’all’s fav recipes!💜

[@kioleclere290]

the crazy cookbook! with all of the crazy pieces & crazy middles recipes! 😩

[@rosebishop252]

We had to always had get tea prep before we went out to play after school

[@ellielanigan5897]

my friends and i do peaks and pits and it’s when you say a peak of ur day, a pit of your day and then another peak. start and end on a good note

[@rachelanderson3662]

I saw the Crazy Middles make Cheez it chicken not too long ago! Definitely gonna have to try it!!

[@kennethmontoya7111]

The number 1 person I like on this Channel is Jamie because I have a mild intellectual Disability and working on life skills and independence!!

[@beckyjones6956]

Chicken looks good I will try that. Hint for hassle-beck potatoes slice them much thinner

[@judycline4211]

I saw Crazy Middles make these on their page not too long ago. Their family loves these!!

[@undeniablygifted1]

That meal looks good. Id have to sub out the cheese it's to the dairy free kind cuz I'm lactose intolerant but we use lactose free milk for everything in my house. Even cooking. No one can ever tell the difference. We also use lactose free cheese as well. There's so many options now! Lactaid has lactose free ice creams in a few flavors that are delicious and Ben & Jerry's has quite a few dairy free flavors too that are yummy.

[@rowenamoore3327]

Yummy that's similar to how I do beef snitzel and ours takes a while to make to. I love using panko crumbs or a mix of panko and dorritos crushed up. Half the family like cheese in the middle and half plain. But I'm all for the cheese and I eat it sprinkling lemon all over. So good. I am going to try these ones. They look so good.

[@terriehumphries6028]

It's a chuffin. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 You need to buy more kitchen mallets and then do an assembly line. Bella, I am sorry your week was low and I hope it gets better.

[@tessaaa8269]

You could name your cookbook Crazy in the Kitchen and team up with Jared and Shelly.

[@caitlynne4297]

Omg can I please know how to make these?? My family would LOVE them!!

[@abigailbailey6849]

Yum. I remember when Shelley made this on the crazy middles and I never took down the recipe. I feel so crazy for not doing it.

[@Beauty_Queen94]

I SAW MANGO SALSA IN THE FRIDGE!!!!!!! ITS SOOOOOO GOODDDDDDDD

[@thisisreallife6175]

I do prep at my local restaurant and I hate when I have to touch raw meat, my coworkers laugh at the faces I make 😂😂 no clue what I was thinking when I agreed to move over to the prep side 😂

[@shoelshickov]

Hi! From Argentina!!! Love your channel... saludos para todos!!!

[@suzanneishmael485]

The cheek it chicken looks good and the potatoes.

[@abbiemartinez2428]

I would also like a Pettit recipe book!! 😂

[@stephanieburgess8217]

As one picky eater to another it is hard to win a picky eater over so it must be great. I think one thing for me as a picky eater is texture so pounding the chicken to tenderize it always helps me like chicken.

[@brittanybozeman4494]

Hey crazy pieces love y’all videos

[@barbarasmith9842]

I think you should put together a recipe book for all of your kids. That way when they are on their own they have it and when you and Aaron are gone they have it as a memory also

[@SusieQ2389]

We used to use Saran Wrap to pound the chicken

[@JustBethTrying]

I wonder if this would work as well if you sliced the chicken very thinly and layered the chicken, CheezIt crumbs and shredded cheese into a baking dish and after it was baked, you could slice it.

[@barbaracarson9636]

That chicken recipe looked so good. I will have to try it when I get my new oven installed. Have been without one from years.

[@pennygrotton4139]

I think you need an online cookbook of your recipes you make that people love

[@candicejack5809]

Hi Crystal, I was looking forward to a picture of everything on the plate.

[@almalee4362]

My lows for this week were "No Job Yet" my highs "8 weeks of unemployment checks arrived in time to pay Marches rent!" Next weeks adventure to finally have enough to get my laundry done!

[@seifalah0626]

Love the family involvement in dinner prep. Also if you're concerned about handling raw meat invest in gloves. I usually wear gloves or use utensils when I handle raw meat. Avoid any and all cross contamination. PS: "Crystal's Crazy Recipes" OR "Crazy Pieces' Crazy Recipes" ;)

[@ednanelson1897]

I like what someone else said, "Crazy Cooking Cookbook ".

[@kendallevan2969]

I am going to try this chicken myself see how I like it I agree that the ranch would be a big plus ❤❤
