Let's make 3 dinners using ROTISSERIE CHICKEN! Winner Dinners 190

[@lisawhisenand576]

Tip: if you put a little shredded cheese on the bottom of the taco shells, put them in the oven just until that melts, take them out of the oven and then fill with your meat mixture, then the shells don’t get soggy

[@kerriemert7263]

Thanks

[@marywalker1394]

Good idea ❤

[@bohemiantwilight7434]

I do this too!

[@GinaKayLandis]

I wondered!! I have done thar with burritos but not tacos. Thanks for the tip!

[@mr.a.]

Brilliant 😊

[@pattipaquette1301]

Love how kind, gentle and loving towards each other

Y'all need to add more happy dances...I like it😂

[@lisahoward1969]

Aww.. Gracie Lou is so spoiled eating chicken and cheese.❤ But really there's no other way to treat our fur babies. My Dachshund and Yorkie love raw carrots.

[@marzeezee]

Our Chi/weenie loves most foods, but his latest obsession is apples!😂 We have a fruit bin in our RV. He will go stand by it and sniff, and look at us and beg!😂

[@lisahoward1969]

​@@marzeezeeaww, that's so cute. I can't open the refrigerator without them thinking I have carrots for them😂

[@nancyanne1402]

Marzeezee we had a cocker that LOVED apples. Hubs used to give her some ofcc bc every apple he ate. One day he didn’t want an apple, but SHE did. So he gave her a whole one. She had what we called “a ball problem”. If it was round it was a ball. (Beware peanut m&ms on white carpet!) She rolled that apple all over the house (didn’t know HOW to eat it) until I took pitty and cut it into quarters for her. Bananas and strawberries and watermelon she loved too.Yes she was spoiled rotten.

[@99zanne]

I don't buy rotisserie chicken, but I keep chicken that I have already poached in my fridge that I use the same way. I poach mine in my EPC, a family pack at the time, so it's very easy to do ahead and keep on hand. And, since I go that far, I keep the broth poaching makes and use it and the chicken butter in my recipes, too, and that's basically free since they are a by product of cooking the chicken. I do thighs since I think they taste better. You can do bone in or bone out, but if you do bone in, after you pick the bones, I recommend putting the bones in the leftover broth and pressure cooking them a second time to extract the maximum gelatin from them. That "broth" makes GREAT pan sauces! TFS.

[@GinaKayLandis]

Sounds like a great thing to do! I have a small family (me, haha) and this would be great to shred and freeze, cube and freeze, or even leave whole for a hearty dinner. What is an EPC? pressure cooker? I am scared of them but don't mind stovetop cooking. Thanks for the tip!

[@99zanne]

Electric Pressure Cooker - good luck!@@GinaKayLandis

[@mr.a.]

What a great idea

[@dianneristow9283]

What is chicken butter.?

[@kymburriss4260]

I get the rotisserie chicken from Sam's. It tender, juicy, and once meat is off bones, I put carcass abd skin in my electric pressure cooker and make broth. It's delicious 😋

[@barbaram5787]

I had to do it. I created a Cooking With Mandy playlist so I can find them easier. I don't have to go through all my other saved cooking videos now. One of the recipes I make often is the mini bacon barbecue meatloaf.

[@angel196989]

I made those a couple of weeks ago and they were a huge hit

[@oi812NM]

Great idea. I’m on it!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kathyforgues6994]

For the last recipe, try adding some grated Parmesan to the melted butter and breadcrumbs! I add that to my breading when making chicken Parmesan.

[@stephaniepetrak6591]

Learned a trick for rotisserie chicken. Have not tried it yet. Put the chicken in a large zip lock bag and shake it up. It is supposed to take all the chicken off. Love your videos!!! You always make me smile and laugh. Thank you. 😊

[@Pamela_Gram]

I don't do that as the small bones like the neck bones and other bones get lost. Plus we don't use skin.

[@abbysmith2754]

I must also be old! I was singing along with you each time! All of these look delicious! Both my daughters ask to watch "Mandy from Mandy in the Makin'" (in a cute midwestern version of your southern accent!) every weekend as we are making up our meal plan for the week. And my youngest son asks if it is a Mandy meal when it is something new. To say you have made a wonderful impact on my family's mealtime is not an understatement! Thank you for all you and your family does for us! Smiles, Abby Smith

[@mhariclare1]

Love the recipes as usual 👍 I always put my cheese on the bottom of the shells, the hot meat melts it and I keeps the shells from getting soggy….and of course more cheese on top…because Cheese🤩

[@MarjKiehlbauch]

Gracie hit the jackpot. Cheese and chicken what a deal. Oh, the recipes look great too. 😅

[@briannehill7583]

The cranberries are in the top favs list for my almost 18 year old. We love them so you just sing it louder til he likes it too. ....also the lemon pasta and chicken tacos were making me so hungry! So i went in to the kitchen to fix it. I didnt have anything listed for either so i had an apple. 😢 it was a cosmic crisp. It was a good apple. But not taco good.

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

Asking y'all to please continue to pray for me. Ever since I had sinus infections this last time. I've been suffering from severe migraines and blurry vision at times. We don't know what's causing them. Thank you in advance. God Bless.

[@judymullins9993]

God is a healer!

[@lisahoward1969]

Sending you prayers and love.

[@susanwenger8448]

Sometimes, migraine headaches are caused by to much salt. Causing dehydration in your brain. For this my family takes a potassium pill and drink a non caffeined drink.

[@debbiekocol8731]

Thinking of you Alma. I also suffer with migraines and they are debilitating. Will keep you in my thoughts. Your Colo friend

[@judymullins9993]

A good essential oil like peppermint works good too.

[@kathleenkeifer4262]

Mandy, I love that Gracie is under your feet the whole time you’re cooking, my little dachshund Taz we have to chase each other around the kitchen for me to get where I need to go. He is literally under my feet the whole time I’m cooking.

[@kathybrannon6070]

My husband is team saucy pasta, but I prefer mine a little drier. My usual use for rotisserie chicken is for a quick lunch. I can grab some chicken, mozzarella pearls, baby bell peppers or broccoli, a small naan,a handful of berries, and some ranch dressing and make my own adult "lunchable" for school. Doesn't make me feel overstuffed, so I'm able to spend the rest of the day teaching without getting sleepy! I'm loving your videos. There are so many recipes I want to try!!

[@BCSpecht89]

It all looks delicious! ❤❤❤ And we got lots of Gracie time, too. Win, win!

[@amydavis7951]

I just love Gracie. She’s so precious. Makes me miss my sweet Simba every time I see her.

[@stephanietorres4612]

I hear you. It cheers me to see her too. I lost my Munchie last year. ❤

[@karencroft1322]

It's funny when ever we watch your videos and you mention cheese no matter were my friends are in the house kitchen,living,even bathroom, bedroom etc ever one of them yell Gracie 🤣🇨🇦

[@lavernejones4471]

Hi Mandy. You are right on time! I literally woke up this morning looking on Pinterest for an easy Chicken Parmesan casserole. I’m making that recipe for dinner right now.😃 I loved your musical interludes.😂🤣 Thanks for sharing my friend! 🤗💕

[@Lori_johnson]

I buy the ppfarm dry bread crumbs/dressing mix and mix with melted butter as a crust (save some for top). Top with shredded chicken and american cheese. Then mix cream celery soup and a can of cream of chicken with a cup of chicken broth. Pour over everything and top with rest of dressing mix. Bake 350 for about 30 minutes.

[@mjam631]

Great job Mandy! Although, I would never use Prego. I come from an Italian family from Brooklyn NY. We make, "Sunday Sauce" or "Gravy" made from tomatoes, onions, garlic, herbs, spices and meats that are simmered for hours. If any is left, after a Sunday meal, the leftover sauce is used for any additional pasta meals during the week usually on Wednesday. Sometimes we "can" or freeze the sauce for future use. In a pinch I have found a quick and easy replacement. I use one 28 oz can of San Marzano Peeled Tomatoes with one 14.5 oz can Italian Style Sewed Tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano. I add dried onion flakes. Use a stick blender to break everything down. Bring to boil. Add a splash of water, or white or red wine depending on what you are using the sauce for. White for poultry, red for beef. S&P to taste. There are many versions of these sauces, but I hope you try to make them your own. Keep on cooking, I'll keep watching! Love, Light and Respect!

[@sandybowman7140]

Oh my WORD, I wish I was ur neighbor! I can smell ur delicious Sunday Sauce in my mind & I'm salivating already! ❤

[@suesch60]

I always keep small amounts of frozen rotesserie so that when I’m in a hurry to make something I grab that add Pioneers chicken gray packet and make mashed potatoes, dinner ready in 30 min or less

[@maureenhargrave3568]

With rotisserie chicken I also make sandwiches, use it in soups, add to salads, enchiladas or burritos, quick chilies.

[@flyladykat]

Mandy. I love watching you cook and enjoy your sweet and loving family dynamic. It is so comforting to join in virtually with your Christian household. I have been attracted to your beautiful Caraway cookware since you began using it and not only do I trust your recommendation but I can see with my own eyes how well it has held up. I told my husband I want the Caraway cookware and minis set in navy for Christmas 2024. I can’t wait!!!

[@Mamadriggs]

I totally sang “Tell me why” right before you did. 😂😂😂. Just made my day! 😂😂

[@maryheckler6766]

These are all winners, Mandy! Gonna try them all. Rotisserie chickens are the best! Thank you for the new recipes! 🐔

[@bouldergirl528]

My favorite way to use rotisserie chicken is on salads and making smothered chicken burritos, enchiladas, or chimichangas, and chicken salad.

[@terryscalia2861]

Mandy, You and your hubby are so adorable! I just love watching the two of you together. Oh, and your recipes all look amazing. 🥰

[@missykoval3950]

I loved seeing you in Jessica's video the other day❤ Ya'll are my fav's😊

[@janetjackson9549]

When I go to Costco I always buy a rotisserie chicken!! Eat it for several meals then freeze the bones to make bone broth later!! Yum!!!

[@shellybielawski1773]

Good job mom feeding Ms. Gracie. I love all 3 recipes can’t wait to try them. Love ❤y’all!

[@courtneybealdavis6493]

You & your hubby are so cute. I love watching yall because yall are always so cheerful and fun. Thank you. Plus, you have saved me numerous nights with delicious recipes. I have two nonverbal Autism sons 6 and 8 years old and two small daughters solo parenting so it's very much appreciated. ❤❤

Wow, that's a heavy load Courtney! I'm impressed! I'll keep u in my prayers. ❤

[@marywalker1394]

🙏🏾❤️

[@debbielyons1704]

I use shredded rotisserie chicken in the recipe for lemon chicken gnocchi you made. I still brown the chicken in some butter and oil and proceed from there. I also add more sauce ingredients cause I like lots of sauce! So good!

[@michellehorning2216]

Yum! All three recipes look amazing and delicious and definitely being slid into this month's meal plan! Gracie Lou, this was a great chicken and cheese feast for you! Yay!!!! Great commentary from Dad and Son! Thank you so much, Mandy! Have a wonderful weekend, y'all❤😊!

[@margiejcupcakeprincess]

I checked out the Caraway and was surprised at the high price would have liked the set

[@shelleymaclean3301]

I am from Nova Scotia, Canada and the average price of a rotisserie chicken is $10-$12 . Costco is cheaper by far, but there are only 2 in our province and it is a 1.5 hour drive from our home.

[@sandybowman7140]

I love Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, etc - SO BEAUTIFUL! ❤

[@catspjs6229]

Ain’t nothin but a heartache… tell me why! ❤😂

[@lrazzo05]

We did the creamy lemon pasta tonight. Both my hubby & Granddaughter said it was definitely a go-backer!! The house smelled amazing while it was cooking. I may or may not have used a bit more garlic than the recipe called for but wow!! Another home run!!

[@matthew-lh3zx]

Love the kitty.. so cute!

[@Starbuck2005]

When you set the oven I thought “Dang, that’s weird!” Glad you caught it in time! Love your videos and cooking style! So easy to follow!

[@debbiestrain2477]

Hi Mandy and family, just an fyi when you make your casseroles with don't boil just put the pasta and everything else in your deep casserole dish, stir it well, cover with foil for 20 mins, put back on for the remainder of the time....simple, simple

[@cherylphilipsz3835]

Lemon & Parmesan go so well with chicken so that's got to be my favourite!

[@sandybowman7140]

Mandy & Steven, this one was extra fun - I loved the little songs that u inserted, & love that he calls u "sweet pea!" Miss Gracie is theeee most gorgeous kitty! Thanks again for solid, easy to accomplish recipes! ❤

[@melaniewhittington7857]

Great easy recipes. Just happened to pick up a chicken today at Sam’s👍

[@kristinbray6453]

Hey sweet friend, they all looked delicious!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes with us. Gracie is so adorable. Thank you for your prayers. I start chemotherapy next week. Sending blessings to you and your beautiful family.

[@sandybowman7140]

Awe Kristin, u will be in my heart & prayers next week. I had a boss who found a great deal of pain & nausea relief by going to an Accupuncturist. They can be hard to find. But massage can help a little too. Sending u love & prayers sweet friend from beautiful West Michigan! ❤

[@beaittie]

I'm so glad your still happy with your Caraway! I saw that Hexclad in a previous video and I thought oh no, something must have happened to her pans or she likes this new one better.

[@anngreene4811]

I just saw a post somewhere here on KZbin that you can debone the whole chicken in minutes. Put the still warm whole chicken in a one gallon zip lock bag, seal it and mush it all together. It only takes about 90 seconds. Just make sure you get ALL of the bones out. I ended up with only two small bones in my chicken. I froze half of the chicken for later use. So simple and quick. I love your channel and website...A-1!! Keep it up. I love trying your recipes.

[@Pamela_Gram]

I always get a rotisserie chicken from Sam's Club and they are always under $5. Mostly make chicken and dumplings with it. Always take off the skin and meat is still flavored. Yum. Thanks for all the great recipes Mandy. Y'all are such fun to watch and everything is so real as well as hilarious. 😂

[@marieb9926]

That lemon chicken sauce looks right up my alley. I went to a restaurant and had some and it was so divine. I'll be recreating it this weekend since I have everything on hand.

[@gailfreeman6967]

I loved all three of your chicken dishes!! I loved it when Stephen started singing!! I knew exactly what song he was singing!! Lol 😁 I love anything with Parmesan Cheese in it, or on it!! YUM!! When a song wants to come out, “Uh-Uhuh I Like It” or “Out Of My Head” or if a song gets ‘stuck in your head’ just sing it!! Poor little Gracie, she want just a little more cheese!! She’s adorable!! Thank you so much for all your recipes!! I love lots of Spaghetti Sauce over my noodles too!! Thanks again Mandy!! NORMA COLLINS FROM TEXAS

[@pamlowery9130]

I love the Caraway cookware I have had it on my lists for a while but right now out of my price range being on disability is hard you have to pick and choose which new items you are going to get plus I am long Covid so can’t cook a lot right now. I found you when I was in health and rehab.

[@lauraspicks7114]

All of these recipes look wonderful especially the tacos.I'm with you with having pasta saucer,it matter doesn't if it's like your dish here or if it happens to be mac and cheese, I like extra sauce.I don't like home made mac and cheese without a rich creamy sauce and lots of it. Your recipes are great Mandy. I love seeing Gracie Lou especially her talking,getting her treats,it puts a smile on my face, seeing her. Thank you Mandy, you and the family,y'all have a wonderful night and weekend.Y'all take care.

[@williamslay310]

Glad to see this. I just bought two rotisserie chickens from CostCo yesterday. Also, love you call Gracie ma'am. I have a Chihuahua Ginger (or Ms. Snaps when i open the back door of the Lincoln for car rides) and my cat Pickles and they are both referred to as ma'am. I am defiantly trying one or two of these recipes. 👍

[@WeepingWillow422]

I'm autistic and I make mistakes with recipes all the time. Sometimes I mix up TSP and TBSP, sometimes I forget an ingredient, sometimes when I'm putting several cups (or teaspoons, tablespoons, etc.) into a recipe, midway I will forget how many I just put in. I'm a mess. 🤦🏻‍♀🤦🏻‍♀ So don't feel bad. Honestly, though, I don't know if it's the autism or if I'm just a scatterbrain with or without it. Also, I am usually team less sauce but looking at the final product in your bowls, that looks like the right amount of sauce for that particular dish. I love seeing Gracie. I keep her in my prayers to give her a long life.

[@rosemaryharris6064]

I love your spring time planting, cleaning and refreshing recipes.

[@TheresaDavenport-i5d]

Every thing looks delicious! Great video, as usual. I love lots of sauce with any pasta dish I make. The lemon chicken made my mouth water.

[@OZARKMOON1960]

Lots of great ways to use up a whole chicken like that. And thanks for the disco throw-back memory of KC and the band.

[@lorrietarsa1656]

Absolutely love Stephen’s rendition of KC and The Sunshine’s Band song. We saw them last year at Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom in New Hampshire and it was one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen. It was a lot of fun!

If you don’t have lots of sauce what do you dip your garlic bread in at the end? Extra sauce is imperative.

[@ValerieHargett]

I'm so glad you talked about your pans. I've heard you mention them before, but I've got to get some. I have such a hard time finding good ones. Definitely gonna check out Caraway😊

Ohh Gracie getting extra snacks lol love it! now I need to go to the store. The head tilt part for tacos was funny

[@virginiasimer4171]

Mandy, I live out in the country in Nevada about an hour from LasVegas. I agree about the price of rotisserie chickens at Sam’s but I don’t go often. I usually buy one or two when I do go and I vacuum pack them and put them in my freezer. Then I have them when I need them. For ones like me this may work for them also.

[@angelcop2]

I tried the chicken parm casserole before you're video and I am telling EVERYONE try it, it is deli iius! But we love sauce so we used 4 jars and used a little more pasta than the recipe. My brother is tall and thin and eats like a growing teenager!

[@hollywolfgang6047]

Since it goes into the oven the saucer the better I think❤❤
