4 recipes you NEED to make THIS WEEK! | Winner Dinners 155

[@loriandrzejewski8027]

Your videos are what I consider as reality TV. I thoroughly enjoy your: cooking, and family dynamics. Thank you for opening your home to me.

[@rosemarydoran9907]

Oh boy Walmart may have lost more customers after hearing your experience! I cannot imagine anyone yelling at a customer, especially not you! I am a W+ member, and as I am watching this video I just got a Walmart delivery of groceries. My membership is up for renewal soon and I may have to reconsider. I am in the middle of a 30-day free trial with my local Kroger affiliate and I really do like them so I may have to just stick with Kroger and drop W+; we can't have anybody beating up on our Mandy!

[@karenholland2012]

I can’t believe ANYBODY would ever yell at you!!😡 I’m so sorry that happened to you. Love your videos and sweet family (including Gracie)!❤

[@courtclerk99]

I think Steven needs to be a judge on Food Network. I love how he describes the food he is eating. 😊

[@cynthiabeard1424]

I completely agree with you!

[@debbiereitmulder2151]

Yes!! I agree as well!!

[@farmgirl8629]

He definitely has the voice for it!

[@krislm5140]

I love how Steven reads the comments! So fun.

[@Kim-Unearthed]

So very sorry about your experience at Walmart! My mom worked for them for over 20 years and was treated insanely poorly. She finally retired a couple years ago at 67 yrs old. They had threatened to fire her for attending her own father's funeral when my grandfather passed in 2003. The way they treat their employees is disgusting and I'm willing to bet that some of those employees tend to take their frustrations out on customers (though that's absolutely no good excuse and my mom sure wasn't like that). After the way they treated my mom I've been the same about them and will extremely rarely ever buy from them, and if I do it's online; I won't step foot into the store. Walmart is absolutely 🗑 🚮

[@Jaynes-Path]

I Can't agree more with you! Many years ago when Old man Sam was still alive, the management cared about their employees. He wanted to get all US made products to sell and would only import something if they couldn't find a US producer that could supply the quantity needed. After his death his son changed all those policies. All he cares about is making more money. They threatened to fire my friend who was a department manager and had been a employee for so long that she was grandfathered in by the old promises of the original store rules. Their reason for this was that she was due to retire with full benefits that they no longer offered. When she didn't quit on the spot they made her a door greeter. They figured she would be so insulted and angry that she would quit. Her attitude was, they can't pay me less so if they want to pay me department manager pay to stand around saying welcome all day instead of doing heavy or complicated things that's fine with me. Her husband had been fighting cancer for over a year and passed away about a month from her retirement date. They deliberately delayed and tried to prevent her from receiving the death benefits from both the life insurance and employment policy that she was due. Walmart does not care about their employees. You are just a number to them. I had a store manager order me to punch out but continue working until I finished the extra project he gave me a hour before I had to leave. He knew I only had 1 hour when he gave it to me. I told him I would if he would put it in writing so I wouldn't get in trouble for working off the clock. His reply was that I could be replaced tomorrow as easily as day labor during the depression, then he stormed off yelling for me to punch out on time. I found a better job and left. I won't shop there either.

[@SR-qw8jo]

❤

[@jeanieh9386]

Agreed! I wouldn’t shop there if they gave me the products for free. They are so horrible to their employees. It’s basically taking advantage of the disadvantaged.

[@Isabella66Gracen]

Amen to this. My sister has worked there for years. She is very mistreated, but stays because the customers love her and seek out her line. My best friend who is the sweetest, most cheerful person in the world only lasted three months because she had never been treated so badly by management.

[@recoveringsoul755]

My husband forbid me to go there because they're non union.

That broccoli dish looked so good. It was cute at the end when the Common Tater was describing the food and Gracie chimed in with a "hell yeah" after each comment. Gotta love that girl.

[@kathrynjaycox1479]

Hey Mandy. I worked a Wally World for 25 1/2 years. I retired from them almost 5 years ago. I only shop there for my cleaning supplies because I earned my lifetime discount. I don't go there for anything else because it just isn't worth it. I had something similar happen after I quit. Not at the store I left. If I didn't have my discount, I would never go there again. I love watching you and your family. My little kitty Pneumalton loves listening to Gracie when she comes on. God Bless you all.

[@annek1226]

Worked for them for almost a year and that was enough to cure me for life! They treat their employees just as bad as the customers! There is no respect whatsoever.

[@terridantzic4361]

I dropped Target over the bathroom fiasco and I rarely go into Walmart anymore because I don't feel like ringing up 200.00 worth of groceries for them. My husband's aunt worked there and was treated like a dog. She had to make it until she could retire. I love watching your channel. I have learned a lot from you and am much better about using different spices now. Keep up the great work.

[@angelamcpherson8283]

Target also refuses to provide security in parking lot . I was literally accosted for 80 bucks in the back of my car. I don’t go there after dark

[@larrydevenney1008]

I also don't go to target because of the bathroom issue. Seldom go to Walmart.

[@jb6712]

That's when I quit going to Target, too. Where I live now, there isn't a Target within 100 miles, and the place isn't worth the trip in my opinion.

[@RosemaryBrewington]

I always add spices and not much salt❤

[@pamelamcdowell3774]

When in doubt double it out maybe even three times thank you for all your inspiration

[@dustinaustin7431]

I suggest making your rice with chicken broth or beef broth. Sometimes I will use Better Than Bouillon Mushroom as well. It ads a lot of great flavor to any dish.

[@jb6712]

Mandy, you'd never last in northern lower Michigan! MI is my home state (I live much further south now, not being able to tolerate the winters anymore), and when it's cold, it's COLD!!!!! Even here in MO, it can get mighty cold, "robe over the clothes" cold, although it's far less often than in my beloved MI.

[@Cobaltdragon]

I cannot imagine anyone yelling at you, you are such a sweet, beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing your lovely family and recipes.

[@maurinadittenhaffer6140]

Hey Mandy Thank you for sharing the recipes. All look wonderful but the soup is a yes for sure. Sorry to hear about your Walmart experience. I have not been in that store for more than 20 years because of the crowds. My husband goes there from time to time for coffee and other drinks.

[@barbaracarpenter1237]

I've worked for Walmart for 12 years. I was a front-end manager for 5 of those years. I told my cashiers, on a regular basis, that those customers shop here which provides them with a paycheck...treat our customers well! However, Walmart hires people with no "people skills." I'm sorry that you were treated so rudely 😔 and, I agree with your decision to no longer spend your money there 🙂

[@rosearellanes5648]

I am disabled and it has been my experience on more then one occasion, that Walmart employees are rude. I had a manager aske me if I was done shopping because he had better things to do then help me

[@teresaleonard9215]

Over the top was a great movie. Lol Steven is a riot.

[@nikkidorsey2215]

I have not been in a Walmart in 10 years for exactly the same reason. I went to the customer service counter to ask a question and the gal there called me an idiot. When I demanded that she apologize to me she called security and had them escort me out of the store. I have NEVER been back and NEVER will. If more people demanded respect from the employees Walmart would be a better place! Good for you. I love your recipes and you are so beautiful. Thank you for your bright smile.

[@rebeccajustis8826]

We agree wholeheartedly about Walmart. Thank you for voicing your concerns here. My Mon now lives in Oklahoma & she only has a Walmart & a small local market, so she's forced to shop there sometimes, and she hates it. They seem to have a monopoly on the Midwest.

Aldi has a pork lion for about $8. We get at least 3 dinners or more for 2.

I had a similar problem with the Meijer store and the Target store. I refuse to go to either one ever since. I always double the sauce on everything. Especially when I make the Alfredo sauce on the Fettuccine Alfredo from Olive Garden. I remember the over the top movie.

I think the cajun seasoning is pronounced Tony "sash-a-rays" ...I use it a lot. Everything looked delicious as usual. BTW...I'm not a Walmart fan either. Since Sam died and they became WalMart monopoly (hair care, car center and everything in between)...their customer service has gone way down. Thanks for the great recipes and smiles...y'all are my favorite channel. ❤

[@JennaKeiser1]

Mandyyyyy!!! This is my first comment on your page. I have a pronunciation tip from a Louisiana girl: Tony Chachere’s is pronounced “SA Chere’s” I’m making your chicken and broccoli stir fry tonight. Your recipes are a huge inspiration to me. Thank you!!

[@MandyintheMaking]

Thank you for the help on that one!!!

We took seminars on how to treat our customers. At one of the sessions we were shown a video on the customer who didn’t complain…he just never came back.

I'm in northern Michigan, and we're a bit cold today. We just warmed up to 10 degrees. My husband specifically requested salmon patties for dinner, so as much as I'd love a soup or stew, or something with gravy (gravy IS a beverage, right?), I'm making his favorite salmon patties with a side of steamed and buttered broccoli, and rice Pilaf.

Mandy, your Common Tater is exactly right when he said to season (salt+pepper) the meat and not hope for it to happen with the sauce. You may also want to season the sauce. I wad taught to season each step and so as a fellow Tater I do, and get great tasting results. Take care

That is awesome that you havent stepped foot into a Walmart since June 2020. I am slowly pulling away but I live in a small town and I have only 2 choices, Walmart or Brookshire Brothers but it is very expensive. Walmart has not much competition so they raise prices, the prices that rung up at the register dont match the shelf price. I am frustrated with them so I have been driving an hour away to shop at Kroger or HEB to support the state of Texas. Diesel has gone up so it's a difficult choice each week for me to make. It's a vicious cycle but this video encouraged me to keep doing it. The food looks fantastic. Thanks for the inspiration.

OHMYGOSH! That's horrible! I'm so sorry that experience happened to you! This stuff is part of why we left cities and retired to northern Michigan! People are still kind, here in the wilderness. When we walk through Home Depot, my husband gets stopped every few minutes by people thanking him for his service to our great country. He wears a ball cap that has a "Purple Heart Veteran" badge on the front. Store clerks automatically give us the veteran discount, without asking for proof. Life is so different, in the middle of nowhere!

[@jammier6483]

Someone did that to me once, they added in the water from a can of green bean to a soup (they "pulled" mine before adding the beans, so I didn't see them) thinking I just didn't like them. I woke up in the hospital due to anaphylactic shock. 0 out of 10 would not recommend that experience.

[@kimt4335]

That is the problem with people pulling the allergic card for a dislike situation. There are a lot of people that don't understand the seriousness of anaphylaxis shock. I personally am really allergic to bananas and my Grandson is allergic to dairy. We are both fortunate to have not gone into shock but we both swell up and that is a sign that we could go into shock. My ex husband is allergic to nuts and his last exposure he ended up in intensive care with questions if he would recover. Our daughter said he was so swollen he looked like the marshmallow man in the ghost busters movie.
