NEW simple LUNCH recipes for you!

[@courtneylong4926]

That chicken "pasta" salad would be so good on a carb smart spinach wrap if you need to drop the bread! Or wrap it in Romaine lettuce for a lettuce wrap! I'm making this this week!

[@aprildawn8692]

What a great idea, Courtney! I'm fixin' to make this also 🙂

[@lauraspicks7114]

Courtney that sounds so-o-o good,thanks for the tip !

[@debbiealtman5373]

Yummy

[@rachelhero3413]

I was thinking Lettuce boats! I can’t have wheat/rice/corn so almond flour wraps or lettuce wraps for me!! Yummmm this will definitely be in my summer rotation!

[@mammafawn]

What about a cheese wrap, or Egg wrap? 🤔

[@michaelatopalov1990]

The success of your videos is the love y’all share with a lot of cute humor. Love your videos and your recipes! May He continue to bless you and your family!

[@2012Kapu]

I watch for the fud , but stay for the adorableness you two are!! You can actually feel the love you two have for each other!!!💯

[@katherinecooper3486]

Butter is my "don't run out of it" item. Gotta have it. ❤

[@lynnnelson6689]

Your husband's reaction is priceless. What a Love-Bug!

[@lemmylousmommy6616]

Recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, but that amazing Greek salad is something I can have. The egg salad too, only with Turkey bacon. Thanks so much for these. I'm sure I brought this up before, but Dukes mayo does not have sugar!!!!

[@tammybabcock4802]

Thank you for telling us that Duke's mayo has no sugar because I'm a diabetic also

[@bonniepwtf]

Gracie put the "spec" in special & spectator!! Love that girl 💟💟💟💟💟💟💟

[@lisadoherty5771]

Your Gracie looks just like my baby girl. We just had to help her cross the 🌈bridge last week. I now look for Gracie ❤️💖

[@pambrown5401]

Yes, please give her a little more chicken❤️

[@pambrown5401]

That bread looks so good!

[@christinamiller9988]

The combination of cottage cheese and feta cheese sounds amazing! I am definitely gonna try this one.

[@joy7590]

Love Steve’s expressions and he is so supportive! God bless you both, Mandy.

[@pinkautumnraine1718]

Steven just cracks me up 😂😂😂. Love these lunch ideas. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@kittyrichards9915]

For crumbled bacon, I dice it with kitchen scissors. cook and drsin. No messy crumbling.

[@paulachristopher9451]

I make this but instead use Pillsbury croissants but use the raw dough, not the "triangles". Use 2 together, add swiss, ham, honey mustard and top with another 2, closing the 4 sides. Brush the top with melted butter and bake. Yummy!

[@jesuslivesforevevr]

Cottage cheese? Yes please! So good!!

[@kathyforgues6994]

Thanks for some great lunch idea’s! I needed some ideas to make for my husband’s lunch. I’m trying to get him off lunch meat sandwiches every day.

[@Bribear1977]

I like to eat mine with mashed potatoes. Sounds bizarre but it really is good!!

[@annielumm7370]

It's becoming that time of the year we love sandwiches and or the crockpot! So hot around here already! These all are hitting my grocery list asap!!!

[@barbaram5787]

Yes, so hot already. I'm in the mountains of Pennsylvania and we have already had 2 days in the 80*s. To to hot this early.

[@buxbaumnina7072]

Open-faced sandwich are also called smorrebrod. LOVE your show, especially your personalities, you make me smile every time I watch. Thank you! Also, as an extra, my cat is 19 1/2 and has cataracts this past year. Yours is a doll.

[@hellobethel7464]

Jalapeno relish on egg salad is something I would have never thought of but I NEED Genius

[@MandyintheMaking]

It was amazing

[@tsmith6250]

Chicken salad for the win! I usually cube chicken as I don't care for shredded chicken but that fine shred looks perfect.

[@sandybowman7140]

Mandy, Mandy, Mandy - I love this episode! I can't wait to try the unique Chicken Salad - and yes, I LOVE cottage cheese! The technique used in the Egg Salad is so cool & yes, I guessed bacon. I keep the thin fast cooking kind in my frig all Summer. I think the thing I'm always overstocked on is Mustards - typically have 6 on hand at all times. If u haven't asked, Chick-fil-A sells small bottles of the divine Honey Mustard for $3.99/ea. If u haven't tried the Mucky Duck brand mustard, u haven't lived fully yet - it's pricey when u can find it & I think from UK. I love the Spectator name & ur sweet kitty Gracie too. Thanks so much for the balanced, practical, inexpensive lunches! U are such a great Chef! ❤

[@hippietoherbie]

The original recipe for a Mucky Duck mustard may have come from England, but the Mucky Duck mustard started out being sold at my local Farmer's Market in Pontiac, Michigan. They sold it out of an ancient refrigerator. This was probably in the late 1970's. I fell in love with it immediately and always had some in my kitchen. It has become extremely hard to find after the original makers sold the company to a larger outfit. Once in a while I'll still see it in a 'Made in MI' store. I got many people hooked on it and am so sad I can't buy it locally anymore.

[@sandybowman7140]

@@hippietoherbie SO AWESOME to know! Thanks for that history, & I'll look next time I go to the East Side of Michigan + maybe The Produce Station in Ann Arbor will have it!?

[@LisaPridmore-qf3fr]

Just love yall entertainment lol and Mandy faces that she makes when Steven does something crazy or funny. Mandy and Steven are amazing together.

[@susanmolnar9606]

I don’t eat egg salad but I always have a spare jar of Hellman’s. Can’t live without. 🤗

[@tutuluvsminnie7129]

what things can i not live without and always have on hand? Siracha, General tsao sauce, dill pickles, Dukes, plain greek yogurt, butter, soy sauce. I do keep a large amount of condiments on hand. For my husband, it is a can of yellowfin tuna and English Muffins. We got our first Wildgrain box today and already enjoyed the Croissants!!

[@MandyintheMaking]

Yay! Those croissants are AMAZING ♥️

[@MaryLinton-j3s]

Loved the reaction when told more honey mustard. ❤❤❤

[@KathleenMansfield-f7r]

Going to try it all! So delicious!! I always put bacon in my egg salad.

[@barbaram5787]

I think I'm going to try those croissant ham and cheese sandwiches for our little Memorial weekend get-together. Thank you for the idea. Give sweet Gracie an extra hug.

[@susan_elizabeth]

The chicken salad on a 1-carb wrap is happening today for lunch! Thank you so much, Mandy, for these delicious ideas! 💜

[@christinebubb2168]

I LOVE the stuffin' out of you Mandy and Stephen makes my day with his humor and sweetness. You are a great combo. You should have seven ZILLION subscribers!

[@KathleenMansfield-f7r]

Delicious. We love the Wild Grain products. We never would have tried them without your endorsement. Keep ‘em coming!!

[@imperfectpairing2000]

I add sweet pickle relish into my egg salad and onion salt. The onion salt just adds a nice layer of flavor. I would definitely try the jalapeños relish to replace the pickle relish.

[@kristypursley107]

I am hooked on cottage cheese right now! This looks absolutely delicious!

[@WNCBlueRidgeBlondie1]

Oh my gosh, I can't wait to try the ham croissants.

[@TraceySouza-x4k]

These last two shows that you have done so far are my absolute favorite ones yet!! You are so inspiring ❤️

[@MandyintheMaking]

Wow, thank you!

[@janetdwyer1867]

That first recipe I can’t wait to try.they all look delicious ❤

[@hjb1720]

Loved the chicken salad recipe in this video. It’s my lunch this week. Thank you for sharing.

[@maryjanekereliuk719]

Your husband reminds me of my boyfriend Chris. The reason I say this is because my boyfriend gets just as excited as Steven does when I make something simple as my egg salad too. Love ❤ you guys!

[@MsV3]

That chicken salad looks amazing. I’m definitely making it and adding garbanzo beans. I’ve really been into bean salads lately. I also make egg salad frequently so I’ll try your recipe.

[@tinalaws7506]

I absolutely love watching you guys! Great looking lunches!

[@donnapotter2105]

Dukes for the win! I am never with out a back up jar!

[@teresaevans6761]

All 3 of those recipes look and sound delicious.

[@amandashort5598]

All the recipes in this video look so good! I’ll definitely be trying that chicken pasta salad in a wrap!

[@sheilab6126]

Will definitely be making these recipes ... I love cottage cheese too. My pantry always has extra Blue Plate mayo, I grew up in Georgia and my Mom made sure to have plenty on hand... I also have plenty of French's mustard and Hunt's ketchup. Thank you for sharing these recipes.

[@vickiethompson9245]

Yes!! I grew up in Georgia on Blue Plate. Moved to Tennessee & had to import it for years. Finally, we got it here in the last few years. I've never even tasted Duke's, but I'm thinking I should give it a try, as it is a staple for most of the cooks I watch on KZbin.

[@cherylphilipsz3835]

I'm definitely trying out your chicken salad recipe and making your honey mustard dressing!

[@Kymom776]

Kraft olive oil mayo Hidden valley ranch mix Franks hot sauce Louisiana tea bags And knorr chicken powder!

[@denevaflath1397]

I always stock up on my favorite pasta and pasta sauce with all the add-ins.

[@Lorileiblack-jj5gx]

I learned some new things! Thanks Mandy! I love the 'Dabble' method also! I always - always have tons of different hot sauce in my pantry. Love what you do!

[@Bassingal]

I received my Wildgrains box, and was impressed with the packaging! A LOT of dry ice and a frozen pack. The food all looks great, well packaged. I ordered a mix of breads, pasta and waffles, and I'll be baking one of the breads tonight.

[@brendajackson294]

Love the lunch ideas. I am always looking to something different. The bread looks wonderful. Steven having a religious experience eating the egg salad LOL. Great video.

[@tashashuler8671]

I put my yolks, mayo and mustard in a baggie to mix them plus its a good way to may sure that ur yolks are mushed good

[@beckym4503]

always have at least 1 extra bottle of taco sauce, hidden valley ranch dressing, spicy ketchup, and sweet baby rays sweet and spicy bbq sauce!

[@pathoulf1415]

I love Wild Grain. Every item has been delicious.

[@MandyintheMaking]

SOOOOO good!!

[@marymitchell8717]

I always overstock tortillas and enchilada sauce, bc my husband LOVES mexican food and I can use up any leftover meat that I cooked earlier in the week and all the half bags of cheese sitting in the drawer in the fridge!

[@brooklynnrose]

yumm and I bet that honey mustard spread on the bread when you put them back in the oven to melt everything would be really good too of even brush it on when they come out hot. yumm

[@JoJo-uq2vo]

Looked like Steven saw the light☺️

[@gingergirl8797]

My "too much" item(s) are pasta and cheese. These sound like good summer dinners to me. Thank you for your videos, I enjoy them all.

[@se5442]

Well Miss Mandy I wanted to come back after watching this video and thank you for it. My DH and I are seniors, and I make lunch as our main meal each day. And I get so stuck in a rut. So your recipes gave us a fresh, delicious lunch. And it was doable because the ingredients were not something I don't buy. Now my DH is not so agreeable as yours seems to be. The first thing he said is, "I don't like croissants". But I made the sandwiches anyway (I added in some of your "no pasta, pasta salad" I had made). I only made us 1 each, telling him I would make him a 2nd one using sliced bread. But when I asked if that's what he wanted, he said use the croissant 🤛👏😋. He said, "okay - it was good!" What you said at the end about it being restaurant quality at home is exactly right! And the restaurant would have charged big for it!! I don't know how you get all your ideas - but I'm your new subscriber! 🥰

[@SheilaStahl-vt6sd]

Love cottage cheese. Jalapeño relish on egg salad sounds absolutely delicious

[@kskollections2142]

Gracie is quality control!

[@angelag669]

I love the pretzels from Wildgrain. I overstock olives and pickles. I like to eat both right out of the jar as a snack.

[@kayburris8464]

They all looked delicious, but that bread wow!!

[@nancycarney]

I always have mayo, mustard, dijon, german whole grain mustard and dill relish.

[@sissygoldman270]

Mandy,the handle of the shredder snap into lid if you choose. KEEP COOKING GIRL !

[@angiefairchild6443]

Love all these recipes! I definitely stock up on Dukes & Miracle whip

[@OptimisticCoyote-jz3hn]

That's so funny " dabble" lol ! My hubby makes up words too. He would say " I'm gonna trickle it up with dome relish". Love u guys God Bless❤❤

[@LovinSims3]

i have a few things i over stock in my pantry 1. "Cream Of CHicken with herbs" i always have like 10 0n hand. 2. refried beans. 3. Corn & Green Bns.

[@jamesgreene9079]

God bless y'all the Chicken salad looks great I also would put in some celery and a dollop of Duke's just saying 😎.. and one of Aldi's where I shop at sells the same kind of sourdough bread also God bless y'all keep doing what y'all do just saying 😎..

[@michellehorning2216]

Going to be lots of happy dancing in our house when I make these three lunches! That chicken salad looked so bright and colourful! Mmmmm! I loved the different approach to egg salad and honey mustard is one of my favourite dressings and having a homemade one will be over the top, as we see with Steven's reaction! I love our little Spec-tater, Gracie Lou---so good to see you, precious girl! Mandy, you are amazing--thank you for these great lunch recipes! Have a wonderful week!❤😊

[@DebraCaraballo]

These recipes all look so delicious! Thank you!

[@karenminckler4198]

Love the look on your husband’s face. It’s priceless

[@lalousiane7118]

Blue Plate Mayonnaise is a must have in my house. I don't do jalapenos at all, but I always put sweet pickle juice in my egg salad or potato salad, rarely the relish just the juice. 👩‍🦳😁💜

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

Perfect timing, I was just looking for new lunch recipes that won't heat up the kitchen. It's already hot and muggy here in Southwest Tennessee.

[@marymasiakowski5042]

We're having the same weather here. It's like July instead of May up here in Wisconsin. Add the horrible thunderstorms. Yesterday, the power went off several times for about 2 hours with all 3 storms that came through. More tomorrow.

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

@marymasiakowski5042 yeah, our power was out for 30 minutes or so. I always worry when ours goes out. My hubby is on oxygen 24-7 due to Covid damaging his lungs.

[@monicacarter3239]

So excited to use these lunch ideas this summer!!

[@pattydriscoll8626]

I love savory cottage cheese. Old Bay Seasoning with chopped broccoli and onion is delicious.

[@dianadean5994]

Those all look delicious. The salsa looks so good. The chicken salad looks delicious. Thanks for sharing I will be trying these. 🥰

[@dianaw.571]

These all look great!For lower carb versions, the Greek salad and egg salad would be great in lettuce wraps or on a bed of spinach.

[@mammasita3511]

Love you guys . And love seeing the kitty

[@jodilick8648]

Thanks to those good looking Sammie’s, I just placed my first wild grain order, cannot wait!!!

[@MandyintheMaking]

You are gonna be HOOKED!! Their breads, pastas and pastries are amazing!

[@Dolce_Far_Niente]

Love these lunch recipes. I have the same egg cooker, its so easy. Going to try the egg salad tomorrow for lunch.

[@cathystinar124]

SALSA. Even if I don't have plans for it, it's good with Mexican, chips, eggs, and a grilled cheese with salsa dip is outstanding!!! 🥰

[@cathystinar124]

And also hidden valley ranch!! Haha

[@kathimeadows7869]

So great. I really love the way you separated the eggs. We have not done them that way before! First time for everything.

[@lillipad1313]

I usually add diced pickles or relish to my egg salad and deviled eggs. I will definitely be making the no pasta chicken salad over the summer.

[@lauraragsdale4494]

All three of these look delicious!

[@carolynpennock7061]

She's your taste tester lol. Yeah my cat Tigger was waiting for my lunch sample too. I made chicken chili. 😋

[@marjolynnisenthal-ki6hw]

You two always make me hungry especially today with that crunch with every sandwich ❤Thanks for sharing I'll be making these for sure 😋

I love the recipes but I love your relationship even more!!!

[@shamancarmichael5305]

One can never have too much Dukes!!

[@donnamullins2089]

Yum I think the chicken salad would make great lettuce wraps. But there is nothing better than warm sour dough bread. Egg salad another favorite. And the hits just keep on coming. Thanks Mandy.

[@jeanduncan5932]

I had a lot of ham leftover from a holiday and something very similar to your ham and cheese croissant but wouldn’t bake them so wrapped them in aluminum foil put in freezer and when i wanted them I would thaw them overnight and bake them the next day in the the aluminum foil. Delicious plus a great way for leftovers 😊😊

[@cherylphilipsz3835]

Stephen's face when you served up the croissants 😂😂😂

[@mdketzer]

I love all cheese, including cottage cheese. I love to top it with some sunflower seeds! Cracked out egg salad is the best I have ever had and one time I put it on top of grits and something about the hot grits and the cold egg salad was incredible!

[@lindabeard488]

Love you two together. Hilarious kids. Great recipes and I can’t wait to make egg salad. Yummy. Love 💕 and Hugs. 💙💙💙

[@susansuresh6057]

The no pasta, pasta salad looks amazing!! I will definitely be making it soon ❤

[@tammybabcock4802]

Good afternoon Mandy and Steven and thank you for sharing your yummy meals

[@mjking6162]

I have to have some kind of cheese in the house. These look delicious. I had chicken salad at a restaurant one time and they made it with a combination of mayo and cream cheese. I can't make it any other way now. It's so good.

[@karenhankerson330]
