I watched a lot of families and busy moms on KZbin and after some time I usually get tired of them. But you are just amazing. I could listen to you all day long!

[@katieross6161]

my busy life she literally has such a calming personality. I’m not even a mom or married and I love watching her videos so much!!

[@Cmartin621]

Me to, I find that a lot of them try to hard to seem perfect and it’s hard to relate. She is so relatable and makes being a Mom seem so enjoyable

[@americaneden3090]

Her soothing voice is like therapy for a frazzled mom

[@caligalstreasures9366]

I just love how real and non pretentious your kitchen / home is and how you find joy in simple/small things in life...what lovely kitchen...just like you and your lovely family! Please don't ever change! Xoxo

[@thetherapymama6404]

I have no idea why I feel so productive when I sit and watch you cook!! Well done, mama!

[@alishajill6205]

The Therapy Mama Me too:)

[@brittjustdoes]

Nothing better then a freezer meal video! I have to remember to when I follow what you do I have to reduce the amount we only have 2kids lol

[@antoninajucovscaia8439]

I can't imagine how hard it is to actually make all the freezer meals AND to edit a video! Great job! Love your channel Jamerrill!

[@udhe4421]

Antonina Jucovscaia . Ikr! She is really creative.

[@patmulh4245]

I saw a man on you tube the other day that helped me with the pressure cooking. When he does the quick release he just throws a dry dish towel loosely over the valve...not to block in it any way but sort of helps with saving your cabinets...I tried it and it works.

[@americaneden3090]

pat mulholland thats a great idea thank u🤗

[@MyMaggieMay01]

I came here to suggest this. 👍

[@sandylfgrubb]

I just love your positive attitude! So many won't show "reality" and when I go to do something, it doesn't turn out and I think I messed up. Thank you for keepin' it real! You are truly amazing!!! The kids, the food, organizing it all...fitting in life lessons...feeding the baby and being kind through it all...I am a mess just watching you. LOL

[@jakenda1978]

Amazing job. You have a unique sense of humor I like. Go put your feet up. You deserve it!

[@emieloo76]

For the ground beef in the instantpot, you don’t need the trivet or water. You just add the meat, use the sauté option, and leave the lid off. It’s easy peasy lemon squeezy!

[@cack121]

I didnt read all the comments so not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but dont put the trivet in the pot when doing burger....also, there is a saute setting and you can leave the lid off and saute in there and then you dont have all the chunks....it gently "fries" without all the mess...super easy

[@greengiant3421]

I promise you are amazing in everything!!! You have the best attitude about any situation & you can work circles around me & you have way more children. You are definitely inspiring!! I love your videos so much!!!

[@jessXjessful]

Your hair looks so good in this video! The color and the style is perfect! I really admire you that you take the time to do hair and makeup. So many women that even just have one kid use it as an excuse to look like they just rolled out of bed 24/7. You have a whole team of kids and still manage to take care of yourself and I think that is awesome!!!

[@shirleygriffin3060]

Hello Jamerrill, I have to say that you are the "ultimate multi-tasker!" I give credit to the nurse and mom combo that we share, but you have me beat for sure! ⭐️ Thank you for the recipe for Baked Oatmeal. My family raves about it! It makes a ton and is so convenient! Delicious! Have a Blessed Easter! Shirley

[@patmulh4245]

It is amazing what you can learn on KZbin, and I will be 71 years old tomorrow! A cook on KZbin told me that chicken will defrost in half the time if you lay on an aluminum pan. I put my chicken on an aluminum sheet pan today and it is the truth!!! Need a freezer meal day, and it is coming soon...just gathering recipes.

[@valeriewallander897]

pat mulholland great tip! Thank you!😃

[@lisab.7339]

Something about making a list and crossing off the items. Very satisfying! Lol!

[@RR-wr2es]

for the french toast mix the eggs amd milk in bowl. Trick to the cinnamon is you sprinkle it directly to the bread. After you dip your bread put it on the griddle then sprinkle the cinnamon on the bread, dont put it in the milk. I really enjoy your channel.

[@kellyreynolds7911]

[@anordinarymom]

That's how we do it too 😊😊😊

[@americaneden3090]

R R this info is revolutionary im almost embarrassed to admit how old i am and i NEVER thought of that😂😂😂

[@adjones87]

Mind. Blown. 🤯

[@1mom2girls2boys8inall]

Love your freezer meals. Just thought to mention this. My kitchen is set up like yours and I cook a lot. I was at an estate sale and found an old microwave cart that I chalk painted and now use as an island in my kitchen for additional counter space. My next house will definitely be designed around my kitchen counter space. Lol. Great job on cooking.

[@christinejones-book885]

Had to let you know I used your white chicken chili recipe and my family loved it. Thank you

[@JesusIsLoveTR]

This has become one of my absolute fave YT channels! May The Lord continue to bless you as you are truly a blessing to your viewers. 🙏🏾❤️🌷🌸🌺🌼

[@hollymorefield6216]

“I did not build any part of it” ☺️ Amelia is a cutie!

[@mariannjack5839]

Every time I watch your freezer cooking videos, I am amazed at your energy. Great video!

[@kathrynivelasquez2480]

I love, love,love your channel. I don't cook much and my family is mostly grown and gone. You are such an inspiration.

[@pajamamama5965]

Jamerrill, I have the same problem with my instant pot venting on my cabinets. What I figured out was to turn the instant pot sideways so the controls are no longer facing me. I do that before the pressure starts building. Then when I vent the steam, it sprays into the air a few inches in front of the cabinets. So now there's no condensation on them. Hope that helps. Love your videos! Thank you

[@anordinarymom]

I've done frozen ground beef in 25 minutes a few times (2 lbs at a time, haven't tried it with more than that from frozen), which worked fine for me, but I found it a bit hard to break up/crumble, so I started doing it a few minutes less, to leave it undercooked, on purpose, and then when it's done, I quick pressure release, and turn it to saute, and start breaking it up while it finishes cooking. Just takes a couple extra minutes and voila! 😄 It's my new favorite way to brown ground beef 😊

[@arohawaaka6255]

I have found a potato masher works perfectly for breaking up mince.

[@nicolas5287]

Yay! I love these videos! Can’t wait to watch day 2! Currently 20 weeks pregnant with our first baby so planning some freezer cooking to get through the first few months! Ps she seems to really like your voice - lots of kicking while watching this!!

[@shirleyramirez7391]

Nicola S definitely doing the same! Lol I'm 22 weeks now with my 6th. And I'm told I'll probably end up having a c-section. So I'll have to take it easy. Can't wait to do this, and I'll probably keep doing it after I heal. Why have I not done this sooner?! Haha!

[@FeliciaNicholle]

These videos are my Me time favorite lol after I get the kids to bed I’ve been binge watching you ❤️

[@shesacamper1497]

Love when you do freezer meal videos! Great video Jamerrill!

[@jackieklumper9498]

"If the sour cream throws you off, just PRETEND it's ricotta!" That cracked me up! Your videos have inspired me to have several freezer baking days the last month. I am pregnant with my 4th, and on these evenings when I am just exhausted, those meals have been life-savers! You always inspire. Thanks for the great videos!

[@samanthaclark5348]

Yes 👏👏 I love when your freezer meal videos come out!

[@miss-avp]

I am currently sick in bed on my birthday with my guests downstairs...this video is a very welcome break from all the hustle. Your freezer cooking videos are my absolut favorit thing to watch! Happy easter to everyone

[@susanmccaskill3268]

I loved seeing your boys helping in the background!

[@dragonflywarrior3curtis286]

Hi Jamerrill ...... thanks for all the hard work and dedication to show everyone your videos ! We all appreciate and love them ! And I'm sure I'm speaking for most everyone if not everyone and of course my self! Will be looking for the next one ! God bless

[@donnaterry1200]

Your large bowl sure comes in handy. Love your freezer meal prep videos. 👍🏼

[@alwaysteatime489]

Well done I just love your freezer cooking meals. keep them coming THANK-YOU SO MUCH

[@joycebecerra9020]

I’m impressed with your older boys and the way they help in the kitchen.

[@Zjbrlb]

These are my favorite videos! so relaxing to watch

[@gricelcruz]

I make your freezer meals for the month for two peolpe 👵👴,I use your monthly freezer meals plan, is a lot of work for me because I have RA, but it worth it 👍👍👍,love it !! 😃😃,muchas gracias!

[@lynnf9219]

It must feel great to have a freezer full of meals on days that you are too busy or tired to cook! You save tons of $$ by not having to eat out and it's better for you. Great video👌😍👍💖

[@joannayeo9545]

You and your team have done an amazing job and you still look fabulous while doing it! I remember my big cook up days and by 10 minutes in I would have as much flour on me as I had in the bowl. I wish I'd had your organising skills and calmness back when all my children lived at home. Well done, food looks and sounds as delicious as it always does. Love and blessings to you and your beautiful family xx

[@christinagonzalez4303]

I love your videos and how you handle everything and keep your schedules and meal plan coordinated

[@linmcdon1662]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing.

[@annettegarmon9138]

JAMERRILL IF YOU MIX YOUR CINNAMON WITH A LITTLE MELTED BUTTER THEN AD IT TO YOUR EGGS FOR THE FRENCH TOAST IT WILL BLEND IN WELL

[@SuperDiana50]

I love your freezing cooking meals. you are amazing for all you do for your family.

[@silverose1209]

Excited to see part 2! I am always impressed with your freezer cooking days. We got a standalone freezer a while back and I would like to start doing some freezer cooking.

[@canningcraftingcrochetingt7910]

I know you were showing pressure cooking but just a tip I’ve found when doing large amounts of ground beef. I put 10-15 pounds in my 18 quart roaster early in the morning before my marathon cooking session. It does take longer but it gets done and contains everything to that one pan. Love your videos.

[@BudgetMama2015]

You inspire me Everytime I watch..we are about to have our 8th child in June and this is giving me more ideas for pre baby cooking. I feel like we have a lot in common and I love watching. Thank u

[@kandylish]

Love watching your Freezer Cooking videos! 👍🏻

[@crazyhomeschoolkids279]

I love your freezer videos! Inspiration for my shopping trip Friday and weekend freezer cooking for my family of 7.

[@ashleybailie8867]

These are my favourite videos!! Keeps me inspired and motivated to keep on top of the meal prepping xx

[@pinkprincess347]

Your videos are so relaxing no matter what video it is I’m watching it’s just so relaxing ...

[@amybayes4747]

I am so so inspired. I want to start prepping. Especially breakfast and a few dinners just to have for busy mornings or lazy days. Thanks so much for sharing

[@KJeske8274]

Just an idea, this is how I do my cinnamon French toast; I don't mix cinnamon into my egg mixture, I make it plain. Once the griddle is full of the dipped toast, I go over the whole pan and sprinkle a little cinnamon on each piece. I just sprinkle it on the one side and it works great! I used to mix mine into the eggs and always had the same problems you mentioned. Then one day I had an "aha" moment. Lol!

[@tinareilly1188]

Jamerrill your freezer cookin days makes me hungry😊 well done lady, i get stressed out cooking for myself my hubby and my lil guy. But you just stay so calm. Ready set go.. keep on truckin ❤❤xoxo

[@emilymiersma7942]

Yay for another freezer cooking video!! Thank you for showing how you use your instant pot...I have one but have been so hesitant to use it. Seeing it in action is super helpful! :)

[@mollielichter1371]

I’ve been looking forward to this video for weeks!!

[@gaylem.8531]

love your large family freezer cooking! I also use an instant pot... love it! to help with steam upon release I put a damp, clean kitchen towel over the vent and use a wooden cooking utensil with long handle to lift up the steam noozle thing.... prevents the steam from going under my cabinets and also keeps spatters down when cooking sauces

[@ladykatangel106]

Yay! My Birthday present is watching a Freezer Cooking day on my Birthday! Thank you Jamerrill!!! Best present ever! I LOVE your videos!

[@acountrylife]

I love it when I see you use your stools as extra table space. I do the same thing. I love watching these cooking day videos. I always find something new to try on my cooking days.

[@janicehigman4759]

To save rooms Alot of items (even soups and sides) freeze well in good quality freezer bags You can seal them and freeze them in labeled stacks Saves space I do it every fall for winter meals ...ie, soups, stews, sauces etc But you can do it with pretty much anything Less freezer containers more space

[@329crys]

This was awesome very informative as well as entertaining 😀 thank you so much for sharing with us, you are a rockstar in our book💟

[@AnotherTXFamily]

LOVE these videos!!! Can’t wait for the next one!

[@balehaven1515]

Your channel is refreshing and addictive

[@LauraleesClassicKitchenfamily]

Thank you for your videos!! I need to do another freezer day myself..may God bless over you and your family ❤

[@shelbyconley1797]

No music background here, I love that ! I am listening to you while searching for read aloud books for my little ones :)

[@stephaniesmith9960]

I would love to see the pork fried rice recipe someday! Especially out of a pork roast! Sounds so yummy!

[@Jenniferslife01]

Love these videos!

[@shakeelajackson6535]

Ok I love wacthin you cook it gives me motivation that cook and clean around my house sound like I'm living it keep doing what you doing

[@cynthiagibson8188]

This is the first video I've ever seen of yours. The only thing I can say is WOW YOU'RE AMAZING!!

[@anordinarymom]

That is a BIG bowl of eggs and milk, lol! I should do another big batch of French toast soon. That's one thing I know my kids all love. We don't have a deep freeze at the new house yet, so I'm limited to the small freezers in the fridges (which I'm blessed to have two of!!) Hoping to get a freezer in the next few months, getting excited to do some more batch cooking again!! Always inspired by your videos, sweet mama!!! Have a blessed Easter weekend!!

[@hillarybathe7504]

anordinarymom yes my kids love french toastm too. they could eat it breakfast lunch and dinner

[@babiesophie]

I loveeeeeeeeeeeee your freezer cooking videos :)

[@amymarie8999]

I read somewhere that you can throw a dish towel over the vent while releasing steam to protect your cabinets. That’s what I do

[@janepacelli4836]

Just a tip to share....move your Instant Pot closer to the stove with the exhaust facing the stove side and release the steam with the hood fan on. No steam on your upper cabinets.

[@gloriapeel6887]

Awesome freezer meals!

[@jenniferoliver8092]

Happy Easter to you and your family!!!

[@dragonfly232010]

Sour cream and pasta is amazing I thought I was the only one. Turns the pasta sauce into a perfectly tangy pink sauce yum

[@Nanee71]

Hi!! To vent your pressure cooks just place them on you cook top, turn on the exhaust n release the pressure. All the steam will go up n out the vent :) I also sometimes lay a kitchen towel folded in 4’s over the vent.

[@kscholz1231]

Love these freezer cooking day videos! I love when you show the plans on the whiteboard for these! ❤️

[@JamerrillStewart]

I’m planning to do a lot of freezer cooking and filming it next week. Yay for bringing out the whiteboard!

[@BlackPearlMinistries]

Yum cornbread. Now I want some. Thanks for sharing your busy day!

[@melindabanning7707]

Ideas for freezer cooking with very young children? I didn’t start freezer cooking until my kids were in there preteens but I am helping raise three of my grandbabies, all under 2 including a newborn.

[@patriciap4987]

Idk why but these videos are so satisfying.

[@enchantedrita3428]

love these videos i will be doing a month of freezer meals on Sunday and Monday and hopefully I can film the whole thing. You are superwomen doing this with kids, I dont have any yet

[@fifiheaven3372]

I love watching your videos! Love fromage France!

[@venabrown7114]

Wow, Zion was with you all day! What a great Kid!

[@chloerarity7304]

Don't even have a large family but I'm obsessed with watching these videos

[@rmilkyswife]

It just blows my mind every time that I watch your freezer meal cooking. I have just one to feed and she does not eat very much even at 15 years old. I just don't know where I would start if I had to cook this much. Love your videos though.

[@judy-kp7oi]

Blessings both and babies!!!🌼

[@shordyboom116]

Love all your videos so helpful!

[@famsimons4583]

So im folding laundry mnt washmore, and watching. Great ideas! Love it

[@suzannejohnson8392]

[@sarahsiskin6780]

I love these videos!!

[@kenfu3889]

Watching this has really got the freezer cooking bug going. Can't wait to get in the kitchen.

[@joec783]

You're Amazing!!as usual!Hint:cut up the pizza box to stack(not smash) your spaghetti.Really works great,use the boxes from your shopping hauls.cardboard can be cut,rubber band,stashed away til you need it!Happy Easter!

[@kquitberg4297]

I do large family cooking even tho I’m just one person. Cuz that’s how I learned. I like to do my cornbread as muffins. If you use the papers you don’t need to wash in between batches so you can just keep going. Dressing is also great in a muffin pan-don’t use the papers so you get lots of yummy crust. Love those muffin pans! Meatloaf-yum.

[@jes8898]

I love the big cook
