Wooster-sheer.

[@christileach4644]

These are fantastic ideas! I’ve been a homemaker for 26 years and a Mama for 21.5 and I still love new ideas. Thank you!

[@danbowers8346]

I freeze mushrooms. I sautée them with olive oil, salt and pepper and some fresh thyme. Then I let them cool and put them in freezer bags. They are wonderful to pull out and add to recipes. Try it! Delicious looking meals today. One of my favorite summer time meal is stuffed peppers. Blessings!

[@carolyndymond4065]

I might try this I didn't like the ones I did.

[@fabienneroure9995]

I make them the same way and instead of thyme I use Italian seasoning. I also put them in freezer bags and they're always flavourful and so convenient to have.❤

[@carolyndymond4065]

@@fabienneroure9995 sounds good.

You asked for quick meal ideas for when you get home late and everyone is starving…. I know you said you don’t like crockpot meals, but it doesn’t have to be a stew. You can use the crockpot to cook your meat (either chicken, venison, or beef, etc.) for tacos. Just have the toppings ready to go in the fridge so you can assemble them quickly when you get home. I add all of the taco seasonings in with the meat in the crockpot so they get slow roasted in. You could also do the same thing with loaded nachos. Another idea is putting either chicken or pork in the crockpot with BBQ sauce, and then slapping it on a bun when you get home for pulled pork or pulled chicken sandwiches.

[@AdalineZook]

Love this idea!! Definitely going to use it!! Thank you!

[@ColleenH38]

I have cut up hundreds and hundreds of jalapeño peppers without ever wearing gloves. Never was a problem. Last Summer, I was dicing up just a few and suddenly my hand was burning SO bad!!! I washed my hands with Dawn dish liquid and that made it worse. Then the pepper oil was all over both hands! I got online and read so many suggestions. Nothing was working. I was hurting so badly I thought I was going to have to go to the ER. Like I am not kidding, I was on fire hours later. So desperate, I went back to the internet one last time for help and read something I honestly thought was a waste of time but hey...! Yellow mustard! Per instructions, I rubbed a thin layer of regular yellow mustard on both hands. Waited 10 minutes for it to dry. Rinse and repeat. The moment I rinsed the second time, the pain was 100% gone!

[@kathleenlouise1421]

lol, I'm actually chopping up onion to vacuum seal for the freezer while I'm watching!

[@kristinanoall]

I have peppers and rice that need to get used-perfect! Love hanging out with you and getting meal/cooking ideas.

[@pegcurrie3337]

Thank you for putting in the side’s suggestions sometimes I forget what else goes with a main dish and keep the same thing to boredom!

[@marlenegrimes8925]

Everything looked so delicious! Thanks for sharing!

[@katies5658]

Yum!! Thanks for sharing!

[@rpomanac]

LOVING these videos!!! Thank you ❤

[@marshabrubaker185]

All the meals look so yummy and easy to prepare.

[@barbaraallison2174]

I also cut up celery and peppers in bags for the freezer. Plus onions too. It does help out a lot when you cook.

[@pmbramucci1056]

Something I grew up eating was 5 Bean Hotdish - which has devolved into 3 bean, then re-evolved into multi-bean hotdish as I've gotten older. I think my record is 7-9 types. Ground beef, kidney beans, baked beans, ketchup, mustard, bacon (diced). onion (an possibly other veggies like peppers), W sauce, and whatever other beans you want to include. Because I like the sweetness from baked beans, I generally go with one large can for every two regular cans of other beans. They go great with baked potatoes.

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

Great video Adaline. I love these videos so much. Ty.

[@kayburris8464]

They all looked so delicious,

[@candywalls9253]

Great ideas!!

[@janeweldon8874]

Oh my goodness the smells must be incredible!! ❤

[@DebBeeman-ir9eu]

Really like your videos. You always have such good ideas and suggestions for alternative ideas.

[@pamwedel3462]

the meals look delicious . Thank you for making them and sharing the recipes.Blessings on your day

[@kristinanoall]

Also, I chopped a bunch of onions 🧅 and froze them flat in a freezer bag, and I had hardly any clumps. Same thing with carrots and celery. They were so convenient to use in soups and other meals over the winter!

[@countycalling]

I do onions, bell peppers, and celery but I’ve never thought about carrots. What a great tip

[@cathykillion6544]

Enjoyed the video 😊

[@countycalling]

I do a stuffed peppers freezer meal and I love it

[@Ohanahart]

Wooster~sheer sauce. I'm not sure why Americans struggle with it so much!

[@Mai95410]

We have always fried the mushrooms before freezing. For extra taste you can fry them with some bacon and/or onions. And later you just add them to the dish you want.

[@katiemcdaniel3063]

Freezing mushrooms works!

[@eleanormendiola-neal3136]

Hi Adaline thanks for sharing your meal prep ideas I serve my meatballs stroganoff with onions and mushrooms over jasmine rice or basmati rice and sometimes egg noddles pasta or I serve it with oven baked sweet potatoes I’m definitely going to make the rice bell pepper casserole you made and serve it with oven baked potatoes and salad I have a family that loves rice and potatoes thanks again for sharing your recipe and ideas much love to you regards to your husband Cory and your 3 daughters btw can you please please please do a meal prep using beef tri tip or can you give me an idea on how to cook a roast without having to use the oven it’s hot here in Georgia I’m debating if I should cook it in a crockpot or roaster thanks

[@debm3518]

I freeze dry mine when I get the big boxes cheap. They can be quickly added to any soups stews or meals that have liquid. They taste like Styrofoam otherwise but if you're putting them in something you're good.

[@calimomof20824]

I like to make chili for those nights we go to soccer and don't get home till late. And that can be made in the morning and left in the crock pot as well and just have your toppings ready in the fridge. You could always do meatballs for subs as well and keep them warm in the crock pot for after as well. Thanks for all you do keep up the good work ❤️

[@hann3671]

For the freezer, I ALWAYS keep bell peppers, celery, mushrooms, onions and garlic chopped up in the freezer. It makes my meals SO much easier. Everything I keep in the freezer I have never had an issue with. I would recommend freezing mushrooms.

[@alexkeremes4893]

Been a bit behind on your videos lately so I’m just catching up, but I’m loving this new format! Feels like I’m watching a cooking show which I LOVE. Also need to try that hash, I think my family will love it

When I have small items that need slicing, I use my food processor. 🙂

[@nhouse7962]

Made the Stuffed Pepper Casserole over the weekend, it was DELICIOUS!! WOW! Thank you for sharing! I also found that Kinder's Butter Steakhouse seasoning and have used it so much already, it is soooo tasty!!

[@AdalineZook]

That is awesome! We loooovvvveee that seasoning!!

[@tarigeorge6122]

Thank you! I love watching you!

[@nor972]

Love your content! Have you done a video on care and maintenance of your cast iron pans? If not, would you please consider and help educate those of us (me!) who are new to cast iron 😊 Thank you!

[@louisaseapy6117]

WOO-stuh-shr is the way the dictionary tells me to say it. Declutters at least 1 syllable. 😆

[@stephaniekasunick4754]

How would you freeze peaches? It’s GA peach season and they are my fav. Also going to freeze vidalia onions too

[@coachdavanna7560]

I just made the potato ground beef recipe and it was 🔥 🔥 😊

[@AdalineZook]

Yes!!! My daughter was just asking me to to make this again soon! It is such a good recipe!

[@CClearly]

Walking tacos! Prep taco meat and fixings of choice. Layer into crushed up Doritos in the bag itself…lunch box size Doritos. Yum!

[@cackl740]

Try soaking your rice for about 1/2 hour first. You may be able to get away from the parboiled kind by taking that step. We do it with all kinds of rice and find that it truly softens it up a bit You also stated a few times that your family does not like crock pot meals. You dont have to do "casserole" type things in a crock pot. I make a homemade onion soup mix (i dont like processed foods} But you can add frozen chicken breast, pkg of onion soup mix or equivalent there of, and cup of water. When dinner rolls around we can either add rice and veggies to our plate with chicken or we shred the chicken for quesadillas, make a gravy and serve over rice or on/in baked potatoes, make a warm chicken salad.... we do the same with all cuts of beef. Chuck roast with BBQ sauce is great in corn tortillas like a pulled pork, we love ribs so I will cut the rack in half and cook with BBQ sauce, 5 min before dinner we toss under broiler and have with corn on cob or cole slaw.

[@abigailgutierrez4066]

My sister has made pastor in her instant pot im sure you can make it in the crock pot. Weve even done a enchilada bowl and it cooks on its own while were running around the house or working. I sometimes forget to take out the chicken or meat from the freezer and the instant pot does amazing at leaving it juicy and cooking it with minimum effort. These of course are Mexican dishes im not sure if you'd enjoy them. I do baked potatoes also in the air fryer I can't remember if you had one or not but made a great way of cooking something fast.

[@pengle]

I partially cook my mushrooms in bacon fat with a little salt and pepper. Flash freeze then put in freezer bag. Can take out as many as I want for pizza, chicken alfredo, omelets, whatever!

[@LinV04]

Where did you get your spice jars from?

[@stephaniekasunick4754]

I always use coconut amino’s in place of soy because I have sensitivity however I know the taste of soy and coconut amino’s is not only healthier than soy but the taste is so much better!! 👍

[@terrychittam8483]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@juliehowman3912]

Mushrooms are fine for sauces, stews and casseroles when frozen. I would however allow them to freeze on a baking sheet, before bagging up as they rend to clump together otherwise. Not all slow cooker meals need to be stews casseroles or soup. Potjiekos is a meal that is slow cooked and quite delicious that can be done in the slow cooker and as a one pot meal would be ideal for your busy nights. Simply brown your meat with some seasoning and diced onions, then layer with your vegetables of choice, with the ones that take the longest time to cook at the bottom. Pour in a tin of tomatoes, with some salt and pepper for the veg, cover and slow cook for 4-5 hours. Serve with some crusty bread, rice or mashed potatoes

[@cynthiafisher9907]

These all look amazing! I’m much more likely to make meals with ground beef than most other meats, so this is a win! Thanks.

[@coastalfarmhouse1820]

I do the frozen garlic cubes also. However, with the amount of garlic cubes you use in each meal, it would benefit you to freeze them in larger chunks. I have a silicone ice cube tray that I use, and I also have another silicone puck bigger size that I got from Aldi. It would save you alot of effort. Because I never use only one of garlic!

[@mywarmfuzzies9059]

You don't save your bacon grease to reuse? Just wondering.

[@kristinkeilman4290]

My sentiments exactly! I gasped when she stuck that paper towel in the pan. My mom said that horrible rumbling you hear is your grandmother spinning in her grave!

[@carolyndymond4065]

I'm not keen on frozen mushrooms mine seemed rubber like. I wouldn't try again.

[@katies5658]

Yum!! Thanks for sharing!
