[@crafterdeidra]

That beef stroganauff looked super delicious. Great dinner ideas as always. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@loveandlife4222]

Great video! I love Leanne’s videos too! She is amazing. 👍 I loved the chili and am definitely going to make that with my instant pot. We like to eat it with Fritos, cheese and sour cream. Thank you for sharing your recipes!

[@mylittlecoloradocottage]

Great video, Thank you for the cook with me and the meal ideas

[@mtatts08]

When I make quick beans I use butter instead of oil. I prefer it that way. 😊 it all looks yummy 🤗

[@Victoria_Foulger]

I loved this video, been watching Leeanne for ages! Definitely going to try that Spanish rice 😍

[@ifthecreekdontrise]

I forgot about Maid-rites! Only made them a time or two but they are yummy! I came over from Grady's mom channel.

[@veronicanavarrette9050]

Loved seeing how you used some of your meal prep to create meals on days of. I am super inspired by your method of meal prep for an entire family and we’ve begun to implement it in our household. Can’t wait for the next video!

[@jendyson6729]

every thing you made looked really good. Its nice to see a mom cooking great food for her family :) I don't always let my daughters see how much butter is going into things because I would get a lecture but then they wonder why moms food tastes so good, lol. I just made pork tamales for my husbands birthday he absolutely loves them. I want to try the chicken kind with a different chili sauce next time. Your kitchen is beautiful! thanks for sharing your meals

[@brookelayne309]

Yes bread and butter!! I’m from Ohio and that was and sometimes is a staple for us as well. Love bread and butter with beef stew as well. Yummy You are a great cook Jen!

[@yvonnescraftycorner]

Some yummy looking dishes, can never have to much butter on corn :) will have to give the cauliflower dish a go.

[@shannon9758]

Love watching Grady’s Mom!

[@kaylahawkins1288]

Loved watching this video! Felt like an extension of your meal prep since you sometimes show full recipes there. Can’t wait to try some of these!! They all looked delicious!

[@NoelsBIGfamilylife]

New subscriber 🧡💛 I cant wait to try these

[@angelamullis7343]

I was re-watching your Holiday Plan video when I got the notification for this one! Every single one of these meals looks delicious! I loved seeing Conner helping you cook, he's such a cutie patootie! And Murphy's nose poking up hoping for a bite is so adorable! You are my meal prepping, housing cleaning, grocery shopping ninja! I have learned so much from you about planning, prepping and making the most of my time so I can have a better week. I really appreciate all of the time and work you put in to these videos. With all you have on your plate, I don't know how you do it! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@Jen-Chapin]

Thank you so much Angela!!

[@kimgriffin4092]

everything looks so good.. Thanks for sharing. we have what we call spaghetti red when we have chili, such a good dish

[@amycrawford9726]

Hi I'm thinking of getting an air fryer but iv not seen any videos on it

[@bellepepperxx]

Mmm yummy. Tfs

[@Cyndimrktorres]

Loved this video! Currently bingeing on my day off. Lol

[@kriswright6138]

I like to add 1 tbsp of molasses instead of sugar to my chili . 👌🏻💕👩🏼‍🍳

[@Jen-Chapin]

That is a great idea!!

[@dawntrish]

I love butter! Seriously you can't add too much! LOL!

[@emmysnowwhite3775]

Oh Lee Anne I love her especially when she meal prep♥love her voice when she talks I feel motivated immediately lol, big hugs for bth of you, you're amazing♥

[@lindabollacker6561]

Everything looked so good thank you,now over to Grady's Mom.

[@nacine]

Thanks Jen, I'll check out her channel. I love anyone that can help me with ideas in the kitchen.

[@caterobbins7403]

I always make Jiffy mix too, but I replace most of the milk with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt with just a splash of milk to make it easier to stir. It turns out so much yummier that way! I love the idea of using a little honey in there too!

[@Jen-Chapin]

That’s a great idea!!

[@GradysMom]

Thanks again for collaborating with me! Loved this video, it all looks delicious 🤤🤤

[@antoninajucovscaia8439]

Cauliflower bake looks so good!

[@Iheart2cook]

Hi Jen, I adore your channel. It speaks to me 😂😂 I also love Leanne’s channel as well ❤️ I have a family of 5 with 3 teenagers who eat a lot. I also like leftovers for those teenagers to use throughout the week while I’m at work. What size Instapot would you recommend? God bless 🙏🏼❤️

[@Jen-Chapin]

I would definitely recommend the 8 quart!

[@Iheart2cook]

@@Jen-Chapin thank you!!!!

[@irenebonomo4575]

Hi Jen I couldn't find the links below that you mentioned. Did I miss them or you forgot to post them?

[@tracybrookey3836]

As always everything looks amazing! I got up at 5 to let the dogs out and pee and your notification came up, so I watched it immediately! Love the doggie nose peeking up for hopefully a bite!!🤗👍💗🐶

[@Trueboldness]

I’m shocked the kids didn’t like the cauliflower! So much yummy cheese! 😋

[@Jen-Chapin]

They are weird, what can I say, lol!!

[@Trueboldness]

Jen Chapin LOL!! But they are a lot less picky than most kids!

[@tammydurham]

I love your videos!! It's so sweet watching your sweet son helping you in the kitchen. Makes me miss my daughter doing that with me. Although, she's about to be 22 and she lives on her own now. But it balances out because now she will video call me and we end up doing our meal prep and/or cooking dinners "together" so....it's not so bad. :)

[@joinmeinthedirt5186]

This meal prep is a winner all of my favorites, I'm a retired bus driver and one of my moms would always bring Lemon bars to the bus stop Yumm. I have been a sub to GradysMon for a while and always love her Hubbies lunches.

[@roses609]

From Grady’s mom channel great video

[@irenebonomo4575]

Me again. Your french fries looked great. Would you tell me what temp. and time you used and was that a whole bag of fires?

[@Jen-Chapin]

It was about 3/4 bag, I think 390 for about 20 mins but you have to shake the basket every 5 mins :)

[@irenebonomo4575]

Thanks!@@Jen-Chapin

[@nacine]

Do you think it is possible to make low carb tamales? I miss them so much.

[@Jen-Chapin]

Keto Momma I’m not sure :( I wouldn’t think so

[@nacine]

@@Jen-Chapin darn! Lol maybe for a cheat day.

[@nacine]

@@Jen-Chapin oh! I found a recipe 😊

[@nacine]

@@Jen-Chapin almond flour and flax seed

[@brittgil]

Growing up we never had pasta with our chili but once I found out chili mac was a thing, GAME OVER!

[@valerieh8526]

I probably missed this in another video, but do you do anything special cleaning-wise with your butcher block countertop? We've been gathering ideas for building a house and there are so many details that I love about your kitchen! The island is one along with the single sink -- and the storage. 😍 The whole layout seems perfect for someone who likes to cook. Anything you'd change or add to it now that you've spent some time in there?

[@Jen-Chapin]

Nope I love everything. For the butcher block you can clean it with lemon and kosher salt, or a mild cleaner. Every 3 months we condition it with butcher block oil.

[@stephaniehays4527]

Good morning!! I am definitely making that cauliflower dish tonight,yum🤗 lots of good food here Jen, TFS ♥️

[@elchewtoy]

Thanks for sharing. Never apologize for butter... just saying.

[@Jen-Chapin]

elchewtoy hahah amen

[@MitziRBradford]

Music is way too loud.

[@Jen-Chapin]

This is a very old video, would encourage you to watch some of my newer ones. Thanks!

[@irenebonomo4575]

Sorry Jen I thought the links were for other people for a collab. I now see the links. Thanks

[@shastityfoots]

We always make jiffy corn muffins with our chili too. I alway add a little sugar. I never thought to add honey. It sounds like it would be good. My kids dont really like chili either so i make rice for them.

[@kellyparker6659]

Great video everything looked so good...i love lemon bars if you make them again try adding 4oz of softened cream cheese to the filling mixture..it will change your life!!! Love pasta with my chili..i think its a mid western thing people here in SC thought i was crazy when i added that...but im from Indiana and thats how we did it lol...thanks fir all you do you are an inspiration💖💖💖

[@Jen-Chapin]

Kelly Parker that’s a great idea!!

[@MrsRedAng]

Yum to everything! Loving my Instapot also. I'm going to try out that chili recipe:) Did you watch the Superbowl? Catch that dis on Coors light by Bud Light?! GGGRRRR... lol how rude!🤣

[@Jen-Chapin]

Omg I didn’t catch that! Lol! I’ll have to find it :)

[@priscillatoledo6151]

I wish my husband wasn’t such a picky eater! 😔 all of these recipes look yummy!

[@taraball1030]

Try the Hunts Chili Starter from Walmart....it gives it a little bit of a spicier flavor. So good!!!! And if you ever want to try an already made spice mix...chilio is good too! Everything looked amazing!!!

[@stampinjill]

Wow everything looked so good I'm just sorry your not doing keto anymore, so many carbs.

[@Kimberly_Muhammad]

I watch GradysMom too

[@heatherhendricks3188]

QUEEN!!!

[@donnanorris2939]

Easier to pronounce as: “Wooster-shear” sauce. Great video, packed with so many recipes, quickly!! (Great value watching!)

[@wendelinharrison9571]

Omgosh! NEVER have I ever simultaneously craved so much food at one time before! I’m going to make every one of these recipes!! Living in San Antonio, I’ve been blessed with many TexMex home recipes! One I do with my canned refrieds is..sit down....BACON GREASE! I know you won’t judge us! Lol! Usually just cook up a strip of bacon, EAT the bacon and put the beans in the bacon pan! 😄. I would be proud to take that cauliflower bake to a pot luck! All those meals look amazing! I wish I could nominate you for a KZbin Emmy! Oh! Oh! Slotted spoon in buttered corn handles the butter issue...but regular spoon for me, tho! 😉

[@Jen-Chapin]

Yum on the bacon grease!?

[@jennifergulley5720]

You cook like my mm, make enough for 20 when there is only 4 of you lol. Leftovers for days.
