MEAL PREP WITH ME | FREEZER COOKING & WEEKLY MEAL PREP

[@Velvet_Whisper]

Put a few lemon wedges in ur lettuce and let it soak in the cold water and lemon for a few mint. (Like 10) and use the salad spinner, it keeps it from browning for a pretty long time.

[@LisaMarie-gx5ku]

Great tip! Thank you!!

[@SweetPea112]

Going to try this! Thanks for the tip!!!

[@cygarza75]

Great tip!

[@brownhippiex496]

Thanks . Super great tip

[@NiNitosix]

Wow. So glad to learn that..thank you, HomemadeINSTYLE.

[@laurielyon1892]

I love how you did the chicken breast using the fold over bags. I’m definitely going to get some bags and do that!

[@courtneybridges1679]

Omg kelly I could watch you all day. Please make more freeze meal videos. They are amazing. Love your channel. And love you sweet girl.

[@kayford7815]

Just a suggestion, my husband and I bought a meat grinder. Once a month we buy a beef roast and a pork roast (usually around 10 to 15 lbs from Sam's). We grind the whole thing and I freeze it in 1 lb packages. It has saved us a lot of money and we always have ground meat for meals.

[@Neisy2024]

Wow you have showed me a new way of preparing my dinner fast for the week. I will be trying this out because this will be saving me so much time when I get home at 5. I love ranch i just went diary free so I'm buy everything vegan. Thank you because now I can have ranch again by making my own.

[@Brandibell121]

Girl!!!! Those sausage biscuits 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥. I got 12 out of the mix and had enough left over to put in the waffle maker and OMG...BEST THING EVER! Not sure why I’ve never even thought about doing something like this🤷🏽‍♀️. Thanks for sharing!

[@sandiebarrios25]

Ah, meal planning. Always looks so great when I see others do it but can never get myself to ha! 🙌🏼 great tips, btw! I think its sweet of you to offer so many cooking/food videos when cooking isn't your favorite.

[@brittanyanderson1455]

Putting a thin layer of peanut butter on each slice of bread keeps the sandwich from getting soggy from the jelly :)

[@Maggie12611]

I always season my ground meat and than portion some burgers out some meatballs out ,some meat loads,and than some other plain for when I want to make spaghetti or something freeze than flat on a sheet pan with wax paper and than put into bags

[@LaadeeV]

Good idea using the fold top bags. So much easier than plastic wrap for each piece.

[@fealishacunningham3542]

I'm fairly new to your channel but I absolutely love it. I'm slowly watching all your older videos. After I put my son to bed I watch your videos. I just want to say you are an amazing mother and are true inspiration.

[@lynnekennedy3336]

I agree yes she is

[@sharriesalas1370]

Thanks for the tips about putting chicken in individual fold up bags and cutting up the block cheese and shredding it your self. Im defiantly doing that! Love those ideas!!!

[@libbygibson5612]

Wow! You are so organized! Such an inspiration!❤️

[@sandymaldonado2192]

Whenever i make pb&js for the freezer i just put them back in the original bread bag. It works out great. Just an idea. Love your meal prep videos!

[@juscallmeNeLL]

We have a mostly chicken and beef household also. These tips are truly helpful!!! Sending good baby vibes to you!!🙌✨✨✨

[@lilrustee]

I wanted to add a thank you. I have always used zipper sandwich bags to separate my chicken before freezing. I do turn them inside out and grab them like you do but I never thought to purchase fold/flap sandwich bags. They’re so much cheaper and I’m implementing this at my next shopping trip/meat prepping. Why didn’t I think of this!

[@NannaNeely]

My husband and I buy our meats in bulk at Sam's too. We also bought a commercial grade grinder (to make ground beef and pork sausage) and a Food Saver at Cabela's, which is a great appliance for freezing in bulk as it will last longer using a food saver. Oh and we also bought scales to be sure that we pack one pound packages. We have two upright and a small apartment size freezers. It's just the two of us and we buy groceries at Sam's every 90 days. If you freeze ahead meals a food saver would be a great investment. Love the precooked bacon, gonna try that!

[@BowsandHearts13]

I feel like I level up in mom-ing every time I watch your videos 🤣

[@micheleg.109]

First time visiting your channel. I love meal prep and freezer cooking videos! LOVE the fold over bags for chicken! Totally going to try this idea! Also, bacon in the oven is the way to go. Haven't gone back since doing it.

[@vsmole]

I love watching your videos. It gives me quick ideas on meals and desserts.. Thanks beautiful 🌹

[@budgetbethanie]

The best meal prep video I have watched in a while! You go mama!

[@jessicamarmaduke]

I'm new to your channel and I like all your methods especially how you buy the block of cheese and shredd it yourself and how you make your own cheese sticks. I'm going to try that. I'm learning how to cook and your videos are really helping me out. God bless you and your family 🙂

[@BrewingInFaith]

I'm excited to be posting my very first meal prep video this week- your videos have been inspiring! 🖤

[@MakeupMayhem21]

I get so many good ideas from your channel! Thanks for sharing!

[@tinaelliott8029]

Just a tip for you, when cooking ground meat, I throw some hot water in, it breaks apart easier then after the water is gone you can brown the cooked meat.

[@kendrawilliamson1737]

I really love your food preps!!!! Also your cooking and cleanings!!!💕💕💕💕

[@josephimelehman7849]

Thanks for sharing your video. I am going to make the recipes too. Looking forward to seeing more videos.

[@francesboulden8491]

Alot of great ideas. Thank you for sharing your tips.

[@nanof7647]

Great idea for jam and peanut butter sandwiches

[@AspienPadda]

Where do you live? Americans tend to call it peanut butter and jelly. Here in South Africa I've heard it called peanut butter and jam most often. You say jam and peanut butter so I'm curious.

[@bethanywarner5989]

Love the hand mixer trick to shredding chicken, will be using that tip for sure! I cook chopped onion with my ground beef and store it in the freezer since most recipes call for onions and ground beef, saves one extra step. We also love freezing chopped onions and peppers for pizza and lots of other things. I hate chopping onions so we just chop a whole bunch at one time and no more crying for another month or 2!! :)

[@thenocturnalquilter]

I think I am going to buy a hand mixer 🙊🐓🍗 I'm convinced . 💖🌻

[@brendatate8986]

Thanks for the motivation! I love meal prep videos! I can’t wait to try those sausage biscuits!

[@heweyangel]

I wish my mom taught me to cook. She didn't cook much growing up. Thanks for the video. Have a great weekend!

[@marielyrodriguez7970]

Love the tip using the full top bags!! You’re a genius!!

[@vamskillybilly]

I absolutely loved this video!

[@katieturner2874]

Great video Kelly! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@michaelmccullough1726]

New to your channel loving your videos. I love to cook, but sometimes I just feel lazy and don’t wanna invest hours into a meal. So just getting into meal prep/freezer meals. And found your channel. Keep up the great videos

[@denisekiser9925]

I am going to try your enchiladas. Those looked very good!!

[@jessicayager9904]

So many great tips! Thanks for another great video 💜

[@shannontate8483]

Looking forward to the blog!!

[@LisaMarie-gx5ku]

I love the tip to use the fold over baggies for the chicken! Why haven’t I thought of that 🤦🏼‍♀️ Thanks so much for all the tips Kelly! Love this video! Please do more of these. This was great! 👍🏻👍🏻😊

[@evem4876]

I learned that trick yrs ago too, shredded chicken with a hand mixer so easy .... TFS🌺

[@dwynn57]

I have never thought of doing the sandwich bag trick for picking up the chicken! and we use the shrink wrap freezer bags so that is probably a better way to separate the food! I hate getting a package that we just shrink wrapped and didn't separate for smaller meals! thanks for the tips!

[@kristiibalio9678]

Thank you for sharing your ideas from your kitchen and your home. Such an inspiration. Keep on sharing 🙌🏻!

[@TMK1971]

Great ideas. She’s in her Apron does freezer videos. She puts PB on both sides then jelly in the middle. Love the fold top for chicken idea! Thanks for sharing

[@lilrustee]

You’re a prepping MACHINE! ❤️❤️❤️

[@SuzeQKnits4997]

I loved this video, it's so informative..

[@lovelivi1591]

Pre slicing cheese sticks is so simple but so smart!! My oldest wants sliced cheese every day(she doesnt want the string cheese that's already there) and so I cut her cheese every day. Will definitely be doing this weekly and then she can grab it out herself!

[@house1194]

Thank you Kelly, this is a great video! It gets so hard when school starts back up, everyone in the family has long days with work, school, sports, and extra school activities. This had very helpful ideas and motivational, I'm actually going to do a lot of this over the weekend! :)

[@dawncochran4056]

Thank you for your video’s. 💕 You and your family are in my prayers. 🙏🏻

[@mviolette8365]

Love that tip with the foldtop bags! :) I hate touching the chicken and putting it in ziptop bags just makes it really hard. Thank you! Would not have thought of that.

[@monicaboone6606]

Thanks for doing blog to put recipes! Always great to see all all your tips and tricks. Thx

[@hollyjj3743]

Thank you so much for these recipes and meal prep. Great idea definitely going to do this.

[@juliamarin8365]

You've given me so many ideas... I can't wait to try them... Love your videos and recipes... Can't wait for the next video... 👍👍👍👍👍

[@denisekirsch3759]

Love your videos and all your tips!!😊

[@cygarza75]

Thank you so much for the tip of using a hand blender to shred up cooked chicken. I saw you doing on another video and thought "Genius!". Now for a tip of my own. When I separate ground beef I flatten it in the bag like a pancake which freezes for better storage instead of it freezing in a big clump. This way you can stack it or stand it up better especially if people only have the typical fridge freezer and not a deep freezer. Love your videos. Hope the pregnancy is going well. Blessings 🤗

[@donnawright7906]

Cynthia Garza quicker thawing time for the ground beef when flattened thanks !

[@AspienPadda]

I do your tip too! I find when microwave defrosting it somehow cooks the sides and leaves the middle. So I've been leaving it to thaw on its own. If I forget to take it out early enough, I pause the microwave and flip the meat from time to time.

[@cygarza75]

I don't usually take it out to thaw so I just add it to the pan and add a little either vegetable broth, beef broth or water. It steams quick and allows me time to prep the other stuff.

[@AspienPadda]

Oh yeah @@cygarza75 my parents do that too but it involves more effort to get into smaller chunks than I'm willing to do haha. I suppose it is better than microwave cooking the mince though. Thanks for reminding me of this option

[@Jenniferslife01]

I love freezing veggies. I will chop up whatever I need and freeze the rest for a later day. Love buying fresh veggies and freeze them

[@hannahkayee831]

Ms. Jennifer's Life me too! So helpful

[@stephaniegoss24]

Great ideas!🙂

[@katherinevictoria6480]

The block idea is smart so is the home made cheese stick lol I will definitely be doing that from now on.

[@deniseespeut1474]

Thanks so much for sharing I almost feel like cooking lol🤣😂U gave me some Great ideas☺️ 😇🙏

[@melissajohnson6351]

I just noticed that you’re a lefty also! I do the same things when I’m cooking as well lol. I’ve always said that sometimes things in the world are backwards to us, and we make the best of it! Love this video and all the time savers in it. 🥰

[@peachezcreations8394]

I'm a lefty too, I thought it was just me thinking things were backwards.

[@loverissa6043]

Going to have to make the sausage biscuits and chicken enchiladas. Yum! Looks so good! Homemade ranch is the best. I need to shred my cheese because you are right. It is so much better than store bought shredded cheese.

[@NiNitosix]

For someone who hates to cook...girl, you are seriously knocking these videos out da park? Lol

[@KellysKorner08]

Still gotta eat might as well film it 😂

[@NiNitosix]

@@KellysKorner08 smart lady😉

[@07Darc]

My family makes those sausage balls all the time! So good! I’ve never made chicken enchiladas the way you do. I’ll have to try it! It looked yummy

[@cindydodson2000]

If you store the lettuce in a gallon glass jar it will last for 2 weeks easy. I’ve been doing this for years

[@KellysKorner08]

I’ll remember that!

[@caitlynhoward750]

LOVE your shredding chicken technique! Im going to have to try that next time, I hate shredding it too!

[@Dvc19]

I did that one time when I had to shred *a lot* of chicken for enchiladas and 🙌🏻 so much easier!!!

[@bonniepwtf]

Great ideas

[@Veggiegirl5412]

Shredding chicken that way was a game changer! And I agree, freshly shredded cheese way better! Thanks for the pepper tip, I have a bunch of sliced ones in my fridge now that need to be used, but I’m going to throw them in the freezer now until I need them. We make the sausage balls every Thanksgiving! The enchiladas looked so good! I love cheese too :) great video!!

[@Sunshine_Harrison54]

Such helpful tips! Thanks for sharing.

[@susanbeyer2383]

Great ideas!

[@tommywilliams5450]

looks like super meals your videos makes my day great thank you

[@trinapopina9424]

Girl, get yourself some parchment paper to line your baking pans! I use it for cooking bacon in the oven. Works great, never sticks and is cheaper than aluminium foil - at least in Saskatchewan, Canada where I live. 😀 Love your channel - keep up the great content!

[@hannahkayee831]

Trina Popina great tip!

[@sj5682]

Loved this video!!

[@hannahkayee831]

Seen you had the cooper chef pan I love mine! I thought it wouldn’t be as good as it was, since I seen it on a commercial I bought my dad the square pan but not as deep he loves it!

[@yeseniapacheco1164]

You are a super mom! Have you thought about using freezer safe containers to reduce waste from plastic baggies?

[@KellysKorner08]

I also use freezer safe container's for the freezer as well. Sometimes the bags are needed. Thanks for watching!

[@valeriebeeching5869]

GREAT IDEA WITH THE CHICKEN!! 😊

[@meghanmorse4830]

This made me giggle a little. Looks like your food nesting! I'm sure your mom enjoys your help in the kitchen and house chores. Will she ever film with you maybe like a special recipe y'all could cook together?! I'm still praying for you in this new season of life!!!

[@KellysKorner08]

Yes, she is enjoying it. Thank you for your prayers!

[@LaLa-rs4jb]

Great ideas😀

[@susanwhitmore2092]

Awesome video Kelly. Really good ideas.😁

[@kchrisman7719]

💪👍 Love your videos. I love it when I can get ideas from others!!

[@angieskitchenpastriescooki6758]

Hi Kelly I just subscribe to your chanel I saw that how you can make easy meals for a crock pot see I'm a full time work mom and I just saw your video I love that how you prepared your food on bags that save money and time now do you freeze all the meals you prep. And prepare even the veggies .

[@keeperofthehomeat4dfarms]

I dont have a hand mixer but I use my kitchen aid mixer and shred my chicken.

[@simplyalaina5033]

I loved the video, it was super motivational, and watching it at 3am surly made me hungry, and motivated to eat! 😂😂😂

[@sarabeth1104]

Love your channel (and your baby bump 😁). Just a suggestion - could you add cooking instructions for future videos for those of us that appreciate directions. Bacon cooking and enchilada reheating instructions would be great here. Thx.

[@KellysKorner08]

Thank you for the feed back ❤️

[@keeperofthehomeat4dfarms]

You can run your cheese through a food processor too and shred. Works good. 😁

[@Thatgirl-g6k]

You could also list the recipes on community post and that will also give people the opportunity to comment if they make them or any ideas they incorporated etc. although I definitely am for Allrecipes being in one place for a later reference. Thank you. I enjoyed your video,

[@oliviaharper802]

I wish I would of saw this video before putting my meat away! I grocery shopped today and bought about 15 lbs of chicken 😂😂😂 I’ve never thought about the fold top bags, definitely remembering that for when I buy chicken again in a few weeks! Lol
