Making 11 Recipes to Fill My Freezer with Homemade Snacks, Lunches and Dinners!

[@AcreHomestead]

Thanks for hanging out with me today! I hope you enjoy today's video - Becky

[@PegAMurphy]

have a blessed day my friend 💕

[@geselle2943]

Hola Becky and friends ❤

[@donnamcfarren3961]

I LOVE when you post long videos! You are so fun to watch. 😊

[@denisewhite2472]

Your welcome. Watching your channel is very educational.

[@michellesanchez741]

@@donnamcfarren3961I 💯% agree with you. This was a great episode from our girl Becky ❤😊

[@Ind.strength]

Tip for single people or couples: if a recipes calls for a 9x13 (6-8 servings) you can put it in two 8x8 (4 servings) pans. Make a single recipe and get 2 dinners. I also like doing this with recipes that use cans. If you half the recipe normally you might only have to use half a can now you can split it between 2 meals.

[@LilCraftyNook]

Great idea!❤

[@margretkates1394]

While I’m thinking of it, I just wanted to say that I am very glad you do not use background music. Most of the time I find that background music is just not my thing and very irritating. 👍

[@lilyflower0616]

I also like that she turns down the volume on loud things like the blender 😊

[@jelatinosa]

Yes! I strongly dislike when there is background music, especially while the person is talking. It's ok during a sped up part or montage, but so distracting when they put music during the talking portion of the video.

[@Randomconsiderations]

I don't mind background music when done well, and sometimes it can make sense, but choosing not to do background music is great choice on Becky's part regardless. Navigating the legalities of music use, not to mention how easy it is for videos to get muted and/or demonetized even when a creator follows the rules, just makes it way too complicated for a small production like your typical KZbin channel.

[@bessiebrooks7353]

So happy for you I use to fix my meal in advance. It was called 5 dinners in one hour.

[@countrymom2023]

I agree I don't like back ground music either❤❤❤

[@Sea_graves]

Becky, I returned home a few weeks ago from my mission for my church early, due to some health problems and it’s been a bit rough. I’ve been watching your videos for years and they cheer me up so much. Especially when I am able to watch them with my dad. Your videos are better than HGTV or Food Network. Thank you so much for the time and effort that you put into your videos. They really do bring joy! Have a great week!

[@virginiabuckles]

Praying for healing for you in Jesus name.❤

[@freeinghumanitynow]

Everything the devil has planned for you I'm destroying! You are healed and walking in your healing and anointing! You are whole and healed by the Blood of our King!! I speak this over you! You are blessed and a blessing! Healing and wholeness in the name of King Jesus. Today and forever may your beautiful heart never be troubled again. 🙏

[@catherinefinken2294]

Welcome home Sister. Hope your health challenges are able to be addressed quickly and that all will be well. In the meantime, following Becky is a fun part of the day. No matter what age we are, we can always learn from one another.

[@AcreHomestead]

Aw thanks so much for sharing with me. It's an honor my videos can help in anyway. I will be praying you get better soon :) Thanks for being here and being so supportive - Becky

[@Sea_graves]

@@AcreHomestead Thank you so much!

[@laurashaffer519]

One thing I learned from when I didn't have very many dishes and I needed to prep a month's worth of freezer meals for post surgery, was to line my baking dishes with foil and freeze them in the dishes but then after they were solid, take them out and thoroughly wrap them, then store in the freezer without the dish. Then you put them back in the dish to bake. Then you free up your dishes for other uses.

[@carlamorris5410]

If all of the camera angles, links in video and sound is Josh’s contribution please tell him it adds such a professional touch! I am loving the enhancements. I loved your videos before but kudos on always looking for ways to grow your channel! Also these recipes look fabulous. Being a caregiver for my mom with Dementia and brother with Down Syndrome, freezer meals are a lifesaver! Thank you Becky and Josh!

Beck you’re such an inspiration. I am 54 and was raised gardening and canning. My mother and grandmother would have huge preservation days from our 2 huge gardens together 3 acres. I am from knoxville Tennessee. You have put me back on the path of canning and preserving food. I use local farmer markets. Well I just want to say thank you and keep up the good work.

I just found you and have been watching for 2 days 😂. I am a 63 year old lady with arthritis and you amaze me! You are my spirit animal ❤ I would have loved to do what you do back in the day. Rest assured you have given me some ideas I can prep and have on hand on the days my hands don’t want to cook. Thank you for all you do. Keep up the good work and I’ll keep watching! 😊

[@dirdydoify]

You are the energizer bunny.

[@FlyingKitten1]

I’m always amazed at how you can cut up onions and not shed a tear. I just make one cut and tears start rolling down my face and my nose is running nonstop. I could never do a cooking show LOL Keep up the wonderful work you are doing.

[@user-mc3tp5sd2z]

My vegetarian sister taught me to put onions in the fridge to get cold before cutting. It’s the only no tears onion trick I’ve tried that works. Of course you have to plan ahead because you don’t want to store them in there.

[@FlyingKitten1]

@@user-mc3tp5sd2z Thanks for the tip :). I have tried it all. Putting them in freezer for a few minutes, cutting the core out, putting a wet paper towel near by, even goggles for a laugh. I must be very sensitive to them LOL

[@user-mc3tp5sd2z]

@@FlyingKitten1 I am too! So far only full cold helps me, like hours in the fridge.

[@robertlavigne6560]

I keep my onions in the fridge because we go through them quickly. No tears anymore 😊. I also have done a "Becky" and chopped up onions, which I store in the freezer. I'm 70 and am always looking to learn something new.

[@hereweare9096]

I just use a chopper. Gets the job done quick and keeps the onion contained until ready to use.

[@parislady6138]

Since watching you I have seriously tried to stretch my culinary skills, have cooked up freezer meals and started growing some things in a few raised beds. My boys and parents love it because they get part of a lot of this since it's just me here at home. I always find a willing participant to test things out. Thanks for the motivation. 😊

[@emilycappa308]

Something about the way you film these always makes me feel like I’m watching a food network cooking show. I used to love watching all those shows when I was young.

[@marygrott8095]

I agree. This is my version of The Fiod Network.

[@caroleckhart5518]

Thanks for some awesome recipes. Just a little tip for you...I have always use the regular lasagna noodles when making lasagna, I don't cook them, just use right out of the box. The sauce cooks the noodles and its perfect every time.

[@thewhitehorsefarm]

I had an awful,day. Woke up to no water in the house. The service people came within an hour, but it took 8 hours for them to diagnose, get the parts and fix the well pump and the bladder tank that holds the pressure. They’re cominnback and replacing the hot water system. Total cost over $10,000. Ouch! I just got out of the shower…..it’s 9:00pm… gloriously laying down and watching my favorite you tuber. Becky, you are such a sweet lady. You’re my daughter’s age, and I just love you. Peace and joy to you and your family. Love from Maryland, Jeanne.

@thewhitehorsefarm hello! Fellow Marylander here! (I'm in Baltimore County.) I hope your plumbing woes are gone for good!

[@firequeen2194]

Oh, I hope everything went ok. Sorry about your water issue. I feel your pain. My 2002 vehicle went kaput and I had to buy a new car. I was hoping to get at least another year out of it but nope. I hate being forced to make unexpected expenditures, 😢. Bright blessings to you and yours.

[@mustwereallydothis]

As an ADHD sufferer in a family of others just like me, watching you cook like this is akin to watching a magic show. There's no way I could ever keep that many balls in the air without falling flat on my face. And how did you manage to perfectly portion out the layers of that lasagna without measuring and not ending up without tons of extra or not enough to finish the final layer? You must be a wizard. That's the only possible explanation

[@klcpca]

I know, right??? I can't keep one meal straight much less 2-3-4!!!! Her organizational skill are AMAZING!!!!!!

[@sam.nothanks]

I suspect she might also be nerodivergent. But her special interests are cooking and gardening. She has mentioned other parts of her life that weren't perfect before. But I suspect HIGHLY ORGANIZED makes her more like us, not less. 🥰

[@denishawalters1813]

I’m the opposite. This scratches my itch to make too many recipes and then forget I made them or have my tastes have completely changed by the time I go reach for them. My happy places are grocery curbside pick ups and my kitchen. My fiancè is deployed so I can no longer over feed him and his office nor use them like food guinea pigs aka trash cans as I usually take a nibble then become bored midway through my own meals. I wish I enjoyed art or some less wasteful creative hobby.🤦🏾‍♀️

[@mustwereallydothis]

@denishawalters1813 I've recently discovered that it's not nearly as easy as I thought it would be to give away excess food. There is almost always a labor shortage where I live, so everyone capable of working is working and earning more than enough to buy anything they need and most of what they want. Those unable to work don't need ingredients for meals. They need actual meals.

[@kassiek8876]

Excited for josh to be helping you full time! Not only for your sweet family but for your KZbin family!

Hi from rainy England. I have always used a different brand of lasagne sheets or any pasta. My local supermarket started selling Barilla about 2 years ago and I had never tried them. I run out of lasagne sheets and hubbie picked these up for me and I have never used anything else since. They cook to perfection they taste nice and I now have the entire range. You are one of those experimental cooks and I love that.

[@fionaelizabethjohnston]

Hi Becky 👋🏼 I'm a Mum of three and work Mon- Fri as a school Nurse. I started watching your videos last year when I was prepping for my first body building show. I just wanted to say thank you - you have inspired me to start making more from scratch and helped to fall in love with cooking and baking again. I now spend Sunday's after Church trying to prep meals for the week ahead. Im lucky as my husband hunts all our meat 😊 I find your videos so therapeutic to watch. You are so admirable for growing and making your own meals - something I think we need to see more of! Take care and God bless you and your family x

[@carlacarter-tf1sd]

Becky you are the sweetest. My husband and I love your videos. Your kind friendly personality makes us happy.

[@deidrecruickshank7975]

Hi Becky, FYI : white sauce is called bechamel sauce, this can be added to, to suit your toast. If you add gruyere cheese it is called mornay sauce, if you add cheddar it is called cheese sauce, if you add slow cooked onions it is called Louise sauce,if you add prawn or seafood butter it is called nantua sauce, and called cream bechamel if you add cream. Also if spinach is added it is called florentine sauce....thought you might like to know these names. Great recipes today. I just bought butternut squash today, so seriously thinking I might try that lasagne. 🎉❤

[@Theaterverslaafde]

Voila!

Don’t worry about dropping an egg, spilling something or even burning somethingWE ALL DO IT‼️😂 We’re all human. Keep your much loved videos coming. ❤

[@NancySutherland]

Love your meal prep videos. I can’t wait to try the chicken lasagna. When I do the lasagna for future meals, I bake the entire casserole and put in refrigerator overnight. The next morning I easily cut into individual serving size and put in foodsaver bags. It’s the ultimate in convenience because you can take out as many servings as you need and just microwave on a plate each one!

Great meals! Here's an idea for your taquitos..... spray with a little avocado spray and cook in air fryer (or oven) until heated through, brown and crispy. Put on a plate and top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, jalapeños, sliced avocados, sour cream, hot sauce and/or salsa. SO good. If making beef taquitos, heat them the same way, top with chili, cheese, diced red onions, jalapeños, diced tomatoes, sour cream and salsa.

Becky it, so smart today do these freezer meals. I can especially see if you have children that you may be running to their activities or your busy in the garden or maybe taking night classes this could be a huge time saver. I’m retired and I love doing these freezer meals and I don’t do any of that but I love knowing I don’t have to cook and clean every night. Plus when we have unexpected company I can easily cover that. Love your channel.

Hello Becky. Because you put zucchini in EVERYTHING, I made a zucchini quiche.. Yum. Thank you for the inspiration. I love zucchini and now I have a quiche with zucchini and not just spinach...

[@emmajames1084]

I make no bake granola bars. Oats, flax, fruity milled linseed mix (it has freeze dried blueberries and raspberries in), sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, dried apricots, dried cranberries and sultanas. Mix well. Melt peanut butter, honey and vanilla extract together and mix into the oat mix. Spread into a lined baking dish, press down firmly and cover then leave in the fridge for a couple of hours minimum to set. I cut into bars and wrap individually in baking paper and store in an airtight container. You can add chocolate chips if you like.

[@jameswendell9575]

Tip for measuring sticky things like peanut butter: press the measuring cup or spoon down into your dry ingredients so it makes an indent the same size as the measuring cup, then fill the indent with peanut butter! Saves you the trouble of scraping out a goopy utensil :)

Hi Becky. I'm a grandma from New Zealand, and love watching your videos. You've given me so many new recipes to try for my family, and so far they love the ones I've tried, so thanks heaps. Also, just watched you make the energy balls. I've made similar things before and had problems with them not sticking together well. sometimes a tiny bit more honey or peanut butter helps, but another way is to push the mixture into something like mini muffin tins or ice block moulds, and chill or freeze that way.

i made freezer taquitos after seeing you do it, and they are a big hit! i used to make the meat and freeze it, then assemble them for taquitos or enchiladas on the night of, and by then i wouldn't feel like rolling them, so it would become layered enchiladas, or what we call "enchilasagna". having them already rolled is a game changer! i found your channel when i was starting my garden, so i watched all the gardening videos, but i'm loving more and more the cooking and organizing. i watched your freezer and pantry organization, and that motivated me to do my freezers and pantry too. now you're making me want to go do a meal prep day.

[@Aninaya]

Hey Becky! I love your videos! You give me so much wonderful ideas in the kitchen! For your Lasagna Noodles: Those that you have from Barilla are the ones you can typically buy in Europe. Barilla is a traditional italian brand that sells them even in italy! So you got really good quality with good ingredients and high standards in food production! Even if I have the option to buy cheaper Lasagna noodles here in Germany, that are produced in italy as well, I almost always buy the ones from Barilla since they have such a wonderful texture and are so easy to break apart to fit into the oven dish you want to use. This different texture is a sign of high quality and the sauce adheres to it better than to noodles/pasta which has a smooth texture!

[@GinaMacArt]

[@candycec908]

Everything looks so delicious! Thanks for such yummy food prep content. I always enjoy these videos. Just a little tip...If you take your natural peanut butter, empty the contents into a bowl, and mix it with your hand mixer, you will incorporate the oils nicely. Then just put it back into the original container and store it in the refrigerator. It should not separate again and will be the right consistency for whatever you choose to use it.

[@christinatm]

parchment squares (made for separating burgers) are amazing for when your freezing things stacked :)

When I make granola, I don't add the egg yolk, I like just the whites, and yes it's great to have a little clumpy granola..... on the granola bars I find when I put chocolate chips on top, I like spreading them out when they are warm, then when I cut them up I don't loose any chocolate. I love your videos, lots of great ideas! Always!❤❤❤❤

[@snotina]

hint and time saver...because cutting boards must be cleaned thoroughly when chicken is used, I suggest you use cutting boards that can go in the dishwasher rather than wood. Wood is very porous and can trap all the nasties that could be in the chicken if not washed properly by hand.

[@user-mc3tp5sd2z]

Plastic cutting boards dull your knives, so it’s six of one and half a dozen of the other. 🤷🏻‍♀️

With the ridiculous prices on lunch meats I’ve been making our own sandwich fillings…..I took a pork loin and cooked it in the instant pot….then I finely shredded it and put it in containers to pull out as needed…Last night it was the pork with cucumber Mayo for me and my husband had horseradish sauce on his Sammie. I’ve put BBQ sauce on some for a quick lunch , mixed it in Mac and cheese…it’s so nice to have pre cooked beef, or chicken or pork ready in the freezer….same with precooked hamburger that’s ready to add to any recipe. My husband doesn’t eat breakfast so sometimes we have it for a weekend lunch or dinner. Having precooked bacon, sausage or ham frozen makes it easy to whip a meal out. Often I’ll make veggie waffles using my dehydrated veggie powders…..and dehydrated eggs I keep in my freezer for quick add ins. Try frozen hash browns cooked in a waffle iron then topped with meat and egg of choice and cheese. I’ve been making myself Japanese veggie pancakes using eggs and veggies from the garden for a healthy lunch. At $10 lb for lunch meat that’s bad for you it makes me feel good about what I’m consuming. Frozen smoothies in pint mason jars are a quick treat or meal that saves time having it ready to set out for a little while to defrost….….like a milkshake

Wow! So inspiring! Great job Becky! That reminds me - I have some dates in my fridge that need used up. One of my favorite energy bite recipes uses dates! Have a lovely week!

Your bechamel sauce is the base for milk gravy which we put on biscuits. I find it interesting how many recipes cover several countries but for different uses . Like the base for bechamel is Italian, Greek and American and I’m sure several more. Just a note.

I think your”taquitos” are called flautas when you use flour tortillas. Love when you do freezer meals! Thanks for sharing!

[@sylviagarza3827]

Taquitos and flautas are the same thing. They are both made with corn tortillas and fried. What she is making is a burrito. When she makes enchiladas she also uses flour tortillas. Those are not enchiladas. Enchiladas are made with corn tortillas. What she is making is burritos enchilada style. It just irks me when I see these KZbinrs getting this wrong. It's a pet peeve of mine. Although I love watching Becky it does irritate me when she gets this wrong. Don't come at me. I am not perfect either.

I believe you are correct. In mexican restaurants the flautas are with flour tortillas.

I love your show I am a Vegetarian so this pumkin meal looks good. I would add some veggies. I learn a lot from you Garden, how to preserve the products God Bless Canada 🇨🇦

I’m vegetarian too. Wish there was more we could do freezer meal wise!

[@alexism1127]

You’ve really inspired me to cook more meals for the freezer! It made me realize this is also how my grandma always has delicious homemade food at the ready. Thanks for making me excited to get cooking 🤩

As you were prepping the buttermilk fried chicken I started thinking about pickle brined fried chicken. This led me to your pickled red onions and the leftover brine as a potential brine for fried chicken. 🤯

Hi! I really really love this video. Gave me a lot of ideas. Thank you!

I have used slices of butternut squash or pumpkin in place of pasta /noodle sheets when making lasagne x very nice. I love watching your channel x

[@pamelaabettis7225]

It must be nice to have a beautiful elegant meal immediately available when you want to take a meal to someone in need in your freezer. Have you seen Amanda on “This Crazy Life”? She made parfaits in Mason jars and used the individual fruit cups as part of her layered fruit, put the lid on the jars, then washed & dried her fruit cups and put her granola in the fruit cups and turned it upside down on top of the lids and screws on the jar lids and stores them in the fridge for on the go snacks or summer lunches.

You always inspire me to get more done when I can. Especially in the summer, Texas heat and a hot kitchen are not fun. 😂

[@mastiffmom2592]

Becky, I enjoy your videos so very much! I started using a paper towel to sop up the grease in my ground meats and I have never looked back.

[@murlthomas2243]

The pumpkin lasagna looks great! I’m going to try it with my squash harvest from this year!

[@amylittlefield9672]

I made the chicken taquitos last week and they are fantastic! A great quick lunch!

[@pamhunter8836]

I love hanging out with you while I’m spending time in my own kitchen. Not only does it help me not feel “all alone slaving in this kitchen” 😂 but I ALWAYS learn something from you. Great meal preps! ❤

If you do each layer of pasta going different directions (one vertical and one horizontal), it creates a basket weave effect. So, when you cut your pieces, the pasta keeps it's shape better and doesn't slide apart. My specialty is a 7 cheese, 4-5 meat lasagna...with sauce fast coke all day. So, I have a TON of experience making lasagna!! 😁♥️🫶🏻 ~ Heather Aston (aka Mama🐻 Aston)
