She is the only family blogger that gets her kids into the kitchen... teens cook full meals.. it’s so good for them to learn so they cooking/eating at home as adults

[@rachelrae8279]

@@KrystelSpell I WISH my mom had taught me these helpful skills, as an adult having to cook and clean for myself was a shock! I was lazy because she always did everything for me. Different doesn’t mean inferior! Have you tried to “make” a teenager do something they don’t want to do? Her kids clearly enjoy living like little house on the prairie bestie. Take your negativity elsewhere.

Thank you Sarah for giving us other mommas encouragement knowing we’re not the only mom exhausted in pregnancy, making messes with her kids and just taking one day at a time and enjoying the moments in between. Mom if 7 here...all 10 and under. I know I must remain consistent now so that they can grow up to be as awesome as your teens! 😍

Your discussion about coming home from church to a hot meal, ready to eat, reminded me of my childhood. Sunday dinners were usually special and I've always felt that it was an awesome act of love on my mom's part. That was over 50 years ago, and she's been gone over 20 years, so this video brought back sweet memories of those days.

[@Laura55sere]

It’s Sunday today and I’m cooking dinner (roast) been doing it for 50 years now, even after they all left home they come to dinner still. My son calls it ‘family’ day.

Often, my mom would put something in the crockpot on Sunday morning; so when we got home from church, dinner would be mostly ready.

Sarah put your casserole dish on a roasting pan. It makes it easier to put in and take out of the oven. It also catches overflow. 👍

[@hildayellow1475]

That’s good that your kids help you. I have 2 boys and 1 daughter. I did what you do. They all help me out with cooking. Now my kids are all grown up. They all know how to cook. The boys they are very good at barbecuing on the grill or even on charcoal grill outside. I’m very thankful that they were very interested in learning how to cook. Going back to work full time. I came home to a home cooked meal.

Cold Start Yogurt is a lifesaver!! I buy Fairlife milk just for it! It works because the milk has been ultra pasteurized!

[@yenl3788]

I have a tip for making a large amount of burgers: Get 2 or more large baking sheets (like cookie sheets) and lay down a sheet of parchment paper covering the surface. Scoop balls of ground beef onto the paper until the sheet pan is filled, leaving space between each ball for it to spread. Lay another sheet of parchment over the meat balls, making sure theyre all covered. Then lay a second baking sheet on top, and squiiiisshhh the sheet pans together. Voila!! Burger patties!!! Can do more layers of sheet pans and meat and then do the squishing for a larger yield. Once done you can cut the paper between each patty, stack, and freeze. If you have more layers you can do the squishing by standing on the very top layer of sheet pan and using your body weight, which was one of my faaaavorite things to do when I was younger 😊. My Parents had a restaurant and we used to prep large amounts of homemade burgers this way!!!

[@amladao]

🙋🏻‍♀️ Sarah, just wanted to share a tip to keep your oven clean. Just place a sheet pan under your baking dish, so if it does spill over you just clean the pan not the oven. Also if you line the sheet pan with aluminum foil you don’t even have to clean the pan. Hope this helps.

[@paulinealger7443]

I'm always so proud of myself when I actually remember to do this! :) (Especially when baking pies.)

[@amladao]

@@paulinealger7443: Yes, I finally got sick of when my lasagna and other baked pasta dishes bubbled over. I HATE cleaning burnt saucy cheese. Plus self cleaning ovens DON’T clean itself.

THAT CASSEROLE LOOKS AMAZING! Just a suggestion When you are putting sauce like that in a casserole put some in the bottom 1st then add chicken and add the rest on top . It will mix together better while baking ,making the chicken more tender and melding the flavors together more. 😉🤗😋❤️

[@BeaClancy]

Plus put that casserole dish on a sheet pan or aluminum foil so any spill over lands on it and not in the bottom of your oven

[@janetgray8737]

The kitchen looks amazing. For me when my kitchen came together, it made me want to cook and bake more. Prepping for the week helps me tremendously. I watch my grandson during the week and he is very active. It’s just my husband and I at home, but I am 66 years old and when he is gone home, I feel like a puddle of nothing. I am so tired and it’s hard to get a meal on. So I have been trying to prep meals on those days.

Cabbage salad/coleslaw is best with a pack of peanuts and raisins and half a can of condensed milk and some mayonnaise and the salad will be eaten quickly.

[@TheWholesomeHome]

Fairlife milk is ultra pasteurized. When you do the boil method, which is what you are doing, you are boiling the milk to ultra pasteurized. ☺️ Then allowing it to cool down so when you add your starter (the yogurt) it doesn’t die from extreme heat. What I do is buy the fairlife, yogurt, and nestle sweet cream (only creamer I use for sweetener), start it in the morning, set it for 9 hours, then put it on the fridge overnight to firm and cool. Yogurt ready for the next day that my kids devour. Hope you get your energy back soon. ♥️

I’m trying your paprika chicken this evening, it has mushrooms, bell peppers and watercress in because that is what I had to hand. I also added a little squeeze of lemon juice, the sauce tasted delicious before I popped it in the oven so I’m sure this will be a winner, thank you!

[@brennanbourne]

Actually, any UHT (ultra-pasteurized) milk will work for yogurt without having to first be boiled since it's more sterile than low-temp pasteurized milk. People like Fairlife due to the extra protein content which often produces a thicker yogurt.

[@michellevv46]

We make our own pizza all the time, but found it's even easier, if when I make the dough, I spread it out on the pans and partially bake the crusts for about half the suggested time (I look to see the bottom is just slightly browned.) I then let them cool, and freeze the crusts. It makes pizza night that much easier because all we have to do is thaw the crusts, top them and in the oven they go for about 6-8 minutes until the cheese is melted.

[@kerrievans8263]

I make curried egg salad. You have the stuff to do it for sure. It's good it a lettuce wrap or a tortilla or on toast. Makes a great lunch!

I really like balsamic vinegar on my salads. I'm also a big crustless quiche fan you can literally put anything in it, when I'm slimming I use fat free cottage cheese instead of regular cheese.

[@mimiashford5544]

FYI... Garbanzo flour or Gram flour mixed w warm water will make an EXCELLENT egg replacement (omelets, quiche, tart) in a pinch. You can even add it whatever actual eggs you have to extend them. (Vegan tip.... it's how we eat 'eggs')

[@ayronsmama05]

I was saying it gonna overflow!!! Lol, my mama always made big meals for our large family and she had a medium sized roasting pan with a lid. Some folks call it a turkey cooker. Well she loved it more than any pan she ever had and the reason was nothing overflowed and she didn't have to scrub the oven but twice a year, lol. Blessings y'all!!

[@ADayNTheLifeOf]

I don't necessarily think you will see this but the reason people recommend fairlife milk is just because it's ultra pasteurised milk most grocery stores have their own brand of ultra pasteurised milk which also will work for what's called a "cold start method". But I will say I have used fairlife milk in a does make the best yogurt not really sure why but it works really good, the store brand also works good but it's not as thick and creamy! I do recommend trying it!

[@gholzem]

I use fairlife milk. Cook it for 9 hours. Gets really thick when you strain if for 4-6 hours. Almost taste like cream cheese. Delicious.

[@janbriggs2546]

Look for store brand ultra pasturized milk. It's cheaper than Fairlife to make yogurt. And you use the same method as with Fairlife. Most lactose free milk is ultra pasturized.

[@allisonhirschmann]

[@marilouo4321]

Try poppy seed dressing on the shredded cabbage. Tons of recipes on line and you can sub any sweetener you like. Kids like it because it's sweeter and it holds up at a picnic too. I had a friend who looked forward to it all year as I always brought it to our annual event.

Yep. You didn't say how thick it came out. It's recommended to run organic milk 10-12 hours, otherwise it's thin. Glad you liked it.

Try Fairlife milk, one can of sweetened condensed milk and a couple tablespoons of Fage unflavored or vanilla yogurt. Hit the yogurt button and leave for 8-10 hours. I go for about 10 hours because I like it thick. There is some good reason to use Fairlife, but I can't remember it. It's super good. Give it a shot - it's super easy. Once you make a batch, you can use that yogurt to add to your next batch.
