I love seeing the interaction with your husband. He is so excited about your cooking.

[@paigeprice6560]

Donna I have made a lot of your dishes and my husband thinks I'm the best cook now. I told him it's all thanks to Ms. Donna!!!! Much love to you and your beautiful family❤❤

[@BeautifulTooCreationsWithDonna]

Awww how sweet!!!! You're a big part of those delicious meals too!!!!! Thank you so much for your support 💚

@@BeautifulTooCreationsWithDonna you are more than welcome thanks for sharing!! 💚💚

[@jewelcooke7601]

I know I make a lot of dishes too, I love them

[@2WOLFS]

Oh Ms. Donna I absolutely love meat loaf. And I have used so many of your recipes and tips. I use to work in the kitchen of restaurant as a break from my professional job. I know that sounds crazy but, as I use to tell people. It the stress less place I've ever worked because I'm not upset if I burn a potato. As I am if I lose a patient. And I grow up helping my uncle with his little tourist spot. Ms. Donna I so enjoy your joyful spirit and your husband's joyful spirit. Yes ma'ma I do use some of your recipes. But I mostly watch because of you two and the beautiful life you shared with us. Sorry if that bothers any other followers,but I love people and you two bring so much joy in life. Thank you both. And I absolutely love it when you remind people to wash their hands and wrap off the top of their can. That's always been a pet-p for me to. Keep it clean when you cook because I see so many people come up with stomach issues for not being not as clean with cooking. It only takes one time....lol...Ms. Donna I'm the one that suggested that your husband tattoo your name on his finger for a wedding band.And one more time cooking is an art, and you bring some of the best looking and tasteful art from your home

[@jenniferbrock8953]

Amen, Ms. Betty I agree with you except for the tattoo LOL. God Bless!!

[@cindyreeves1842]

I have made that cheesy hash brown recipe for about 30 years and It never occurred to me to mix the wet ingredients together before adding the hash browns. It’s a great recipe and my family loves it. Thank you!

[@charlenepiser7969]

Donna I am amazed how much you have EVERYTHING together when you cook! And all your food looks so fantastic! May God, our Dear Lord, bless you and your beautiful family! 😍

[@just-nora943]

That looks good. I was taught how to make meatloaf, but never used crackers, and it was soo good. I cooked meatloaf, mac n cheese, with green peas on Wednesday, lol. Great minds think alike. Thanks for sharing,

[@malakahbanathyasharahla2302]

I have never used crackers either. We'll make this week

[@jantaylor4282]

I used to use crackers but for years now I use quick oatmeal instead. I thought more healthy and less salt as most crackers have salt. I also like how it tastes. And I don't have to crush the oatmeal...

[@kennyharris3182]

Great show, learn more about things that I didn't know. So thank you for the program

[@Susan-cooks]

Donna I love that you use store brand ingredients to keep it real! I'm enjoying your channel.

[@patz8692]

Donna I think I mentioned this in a previous comment, that I am from Cape Town South Africa, my husband and I lived in Pascagoula Mississippi for 4 years. We used to always drive to the nearest Cracker Barrel we could find for weekend breakfast. Watching you cook and bake these amazing food, just brings back so many happy memories. Thank you!

[@jeanineteel9034]

Miss Donna, I really appreciate you sharing and helping beginners and sharing recipes that many people may not think of. I will definitely be making these copy cat recipes just need to modify the recipe because I’m an empty nester! Since dude#1 has approved and endorsed your meal, I second that 🤗🤗 Thank you!!

[@jenniferbrock8953]

Ms Donna, I made this today for Sunday dinner. My husband loved it, but at the end he said was something wrong with the Mac and cheese. It was missing the macaroni. After I LOL 🤣🤣, I said it was cheesy hash browns. Ms. Donna he was with me when I bought everything for dinner on Saturday. My vegetable was sautéed collards with red, yellow, orange and purple peppers. Everything was delicious!!! Meatloaf exceptional! Thank you so much! N🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️

[@1quadlove118]

Heeyyyy Mrs. Donna. I love how you spice up the recipes with your extra touches...extra onions (red), extra bell peppers, Dijon mustard instead of regular mustard Yummy 😋 😋 😛💞❤ OH yeah and thanks for the cooking class in regards to unthawing safety tips: If you don't have time to unthaw your meat overnight in the refrigerator, Do Not Unthaw your Meats in Hot Water...Always Use Cold Water. And 'Make sure you thoroughly wash off your canned goods they're nasty, they're extremely nasty, make sure you use your dish cloth, don't use your wash cloth out the bathroom because that's nasty too. Thoroughly clean off the top of your can' before opening. You're the best 👌🏽 👍 😍

[@kikiharrison9446]

I'm real hungry now!!! 😂 Watching this, I am too Dude #1. I will be making this over the weekend, Thanks Mrs. Donna. 💚💚💚💚

[@kimw8166]

Your cube steak video popped up in my feed this morning and I’m on my fourth video. Obviously the recipes are right up my alley but your lovely demeanor is what made me subscribe. You can just tell when a person is genuine. I can’t wait to watch more! 💜

[@gwenholcombe9705]

Hi 👋🏽 Donna and Dude # 1. Glad you shared these recipes because Cracker Barrel’s hash brown casserole is one of my favorites. It all looks scrumptious delicious 😋 Enjoy 😊

[@deoperathurston]

Heyyyy ErryBody!! Blessings Mrs Donna and everyone in chat

[@tammyschmidt8001]

Comfort food at it's best! I call those dishes food hugs. So yummy! I made those potatoes for Christmas Day dinner with prime rib but went EXTRA on the copycat recipe. I sautéed the onions then let them cool before stirring them into the potatoes and added some garlic powder and my favorite Zatarains creole seasoning for flavor. At the very end, I added crushed Ritz crackers soaked in butter to top the cheese for the last 15 mins or so. There were no leftovers! I laughed so hard with your washcloth slip-up. I imagined folks wearing their shower caps and house jackets scrubbing their nasty cans with washcloths! 😂😂😂😂😂 Love y'all. Have a beautiful week!

[@deborahscott6740]

Hello Donna, I have substituted French's Crispy fried onions for using in the hash brown casserole mix or mixing them with the cheese on top of the casserole. Either way is good. Also did as another viewer by adding garlic powder to the casserole mix. You and hubby are so funny together. I think that the genuine love you have for each other certainly comes across on the screen.

[@marthaanthis3980]

Looks so good! I also like Sister Schubert rolls. Thanks for teaching us and for sharing these recipes!

[@michelemorgan8420]

Loved, loved, loved that you showed technic for preparation. Very helpful! Thank you Miss Donna! Also love the family coming in at the end. Y’all make me smile.

Awww thank you so much Sonya 💚 we really appreciate your support!!!

[@leahdennis1813]

Looks good. Mrs Donna you can use your cake mixer for meatloaf since you don’t like to use your hands. You can purchase a separate bowl for your meats. Your bowls are dishwasher safe the dishwasher sanitizes your dishes.

[@mrs.m4702]

Heyyyyyy Donna!💚 The CHEESY CRUST is a MUST!!! Thanks so much for these awesome tips and recipes!! Enjoyed it!!😉❤️

[@charlenedickerson-gilbert4618]

Can a sister get a plate??? That looks so good. Meatloaf is my favorite with potatoes and creamed sweet peas!!! Hope they enjoyed it!!! 💖💖💖

[@christinawebb3016]

I use dry herb dressing in my meatloaf. I was not taught how to make meatloaf but I have a dear friend who shared her recipe. The milk is the key to keep it moist.

[@nitaw4687]

Hi Donna, made the entire meal including your squash casserole& cornbread. My daughter her husband and my 6& 7yr grandsons devoured it. My son- in-law had seconds and even took a plate to work the next day for his lunch. These will definitely be my go to recipes.

[@Beautifully_Blessed]

Amazing! I’m coming for dinner and bringing my own Tupperware for left overs 🤣 🍽

[@carolynhicks1609]

Definitely gonna try that hash brown casserole, thanks Donna

[@TruthSeekerNC]

I have tried the meatloaf before and it didn't quite have enough flavor for me. We're used to a bolder meatloaf so I added some things. I haven't tried the hashbrown casserole yet but it's on the list because it looks delicious. Thank you for sharing these recipes. God bless!

[@rhondawhitaker7065]

You are such a joy. I lost my Mom and you are a comfort. Love your recipes . New to your channel.❤

Heyyyy Regayla!!!!! Thank you so much for your support and commenting!!!!! I will definitely keep coming with more cooking/baking videos 💚

I was always scared to watch her videos because those thumbnails of her cakes had me thinking my skills were not on her level.

[@theonlylealyboo]

I love how calm and peaceful it is while u cook . With three kids I’m always rushing to make food .

[@latrissiapeoples302]

Donna these cheesy hash browns looks delicious! I like Cracker Barrel’s hash browns. But if yours are better, I can’t wait to make it! The meatloaf looks delicious also! Thanks for sharing! 🥰

[@malakahbanathyasharahla2302]

I can no longer have cheese because of my clogged arteries but I might use a little sprinkle of Parmesan on mine. My husband do not like cheese.

[@bertiehardison2689]

Just found your channel and glad I did. When I cook multiple things at the same time, I also prepare the recipe that cooks longer first and while it cooking, I make the second and at it to the oven. That way they are finished cooking at the same time.

[@terracinajacobs1102]

Looks delicious!!! Beautiful family❤

[@yvonneratcliff47]

I made this recipe today with a few little variations. I just got it out of the oven. I am allowing them to cool. I tasted the casserole because it came out of the oven first. It is yummy 😋! I like that it is not heavily seasoned because my son doesn't like highly seasoned food, so I will add a little bit of seasoning to my own. Thank you for sharing these recipes ❤️.

[@janedelarosa5957]

Miss Donna i love your way of cooking. You make it very delicious and wdnt to go and start dinner along with the cabbage casserole, and biscuits. Lovebyour videos. Jane ❤

[@mimifourtimes]

Heyyy Donna. I love watching you in the kitchen. You take me back to my South Carolina roots. Your ingredients are so close to mine. It’s so funny your food looks so good, it’s as if I can taste it and smell it cooking. I’m so gonna try the hash brown casserole. Looked so good.

[@BeautifulTooCreationsWithDonna]

Heyyy Mimi!!!! Thank you so much!!!! Please do!!!! I'm sure you will enjoy it 😋💚

[@pjjohnson1941]

Good afternoon! Your "copy cat" Meatloaf and Hashbrowns look delicious! The meatloaf was moist and the sauce had my mouth watering! 😋The hashbrowns were creamy and cheesy! That's a great looking meal! 🥰 Dude #1 was in heaven! And your daughter is right: home cooked meals turn out better than the restaurant's version! Thanks for sharing! ❤️ PS: Fresh parsley tastes way better than dried! 😉

[@peggypowell678]

Thank you. Thank you for the meatloaf recipe. I'm not a beginner cook but meatloaf has always been a disaster for me. I am trying this one and those potatoes are so creamy and delicious looking. I'm very happy you shared these recipes. I'm not much of a cake eater or baker but yours do look soooo yummy. God bless you and your family. Love you all💞💖. Stay safe

[@rita7656]

Hi Donna! Everything looks Great I think i will try to make that whole meal. Oh tried those Rolls you spoke about before and We really love them I didn't know anything about those rolls until you mention it on one of your videos. Thanks you Donna for sharing your recipes and have a Wonderful Blessed evening.

[@jong7722]

That was great! Only thing I did different is I used 3 lbs of ground beef and increased the other ingredients accordingly. The. I cooked the meatloaf in a 12” cast iron skillet for an hour before I put the hash browns in the oven. Excellent and yeah it’s better than kracker barrel. You did good. I love it when everyone is hanging around waiting for the food to be done. I dish em up and they’re all happy. Me too

[@kerriereynolds7472]

It does my heart good to see a loving family!! Love ya'll and your recipes are absolutely worth cooking :)

[@61Rebekah]

I don't know why, I find it so relaxing to watch other people cook, especially if they are cooking what I call "home cookin", like my mom and grandma used to make. Funeral potatoes have been in my family for years, named so because it would feed a lot of people after an event, and carry ins, like after a funeral. My family is mennonite and we had them all the time, and I still make them all the time.

[@Foodie2019]

Thank you!!! Excited to make this for my husband!!!!

[@evasccl7846]

I so much enjoyed this video Donna, thank you for sharing your tips and tricks too ;) it does make sense to cook two things at the same time in the oven when they need same temperature even if the cooking time of each is slightly different :D I love how you set all the ingredients apart ahead of the cooking as it ensures all ingredients with their right quantity are ready hahahaha.... I have had instances wherein I thought I had a particular ingredient and i DID NOT have and was already ahead of all mixing... oh girl, I had to pop out and get what i needed, so it all took far longer than planned for :D Thank you xx

[@maryrobinson4619]

Donna I love all of your recipes especially the pound cakes. The ones you are getting ready to make are good and I added some extra stuff too. But you go girl.
