My husband and I are nana and papa too! Nothing in the world like grandchildren!❤❤❤

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

I didn't know what I wanted to be called, but my husband knew he wanted to be Papa, so I thought Nana just went well with it. My grandmother was Nonny so it's similar. :) And you're right - nothing in the world!! 💕

@@PlanningUsHealthy I know what you mean. It feels like just yesterday I was going to my daughters ultrasounds and dr appts then to the hospital when she was in labor! It’s funny how I can remember certain things like they were just yesterday and my daughters pregnancy and my grandsons birth! I just wish I knew 8 years ago he would be our only grandchild! I would have soaked it in and enjoyed him being a baby even more then I did. I am just thankful we have him! He is such a sweet caring little boy! ❤️❤️

The taco bake looks so yummy and I will try that. Your grandson is so cute and growing up so fast. I wish my grandkids were still little, but 2 are already adults and Briella will be an adult in 2 years. I keep telling my other 3 children that by the time they have kids I'm going to be so old, but they are not even seeing anyone or nothing. Great video as always, keep it up with these awesome videos.

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

Thanks so much, Elaine!! Yeah, kids grow so fast now!! I'm cherishing every moment, believe me. Wow! I can't believe you have adult grandchildren!!!

@@PlanningUsHealthy Well, I had my oldest son, Shawn(41 years old now)when I was 20(I'm 61 years old now) and he had his first son Dayton(20 years old now, who is going in the army in a couple of weeks) when he was 20. Then 10 years later I got married to my husband and we had 3 other children, Kayla, Noah and Elizabeth. They are fun, Austin(Shawn's middle child) was excited that I took him to his first time voting since he just turned 18. They grew up way too fast.

Made the ground chicken taco bake. I used some left over chicken and ground up in food processor (worked great). Also I ended up using 3 tbl taco seasoning. I put mine on salad with a few tortilla chips on the side. It was good. The ending with your grandson was so precious

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

So glad you liked it, Barb! Tortilla chips would be great with it! You could almost scoop the taco bake onto them! Mmm.... Thank you! Logan is precious for sure!! :)

[@kolshefski9994]

Just a little tip if you want....save the yogurt, puddling or applesauce cups and use them as the separators in your bento boxes.

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

Oh, that's a great idea!!! Thanks so much! 😀

Laughed at the beginning either the interrupting hubby and my heart burst at the end seeing Logan come to his Nana and then up into Papa’s arms. It’s just the best feeling and I felt it for you. ❤️❤️

I make a taco casserole that uses ground turkey. But it's layered over rice. Super good! This one would probably be good with rice too!

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

Yum! I think I have an old cook with me for taco casserole and that's what it uses is rice and ground turkey! Very similar. You're right - I bet this would be great over rice too!

The Costco own brand ff Greek yogurt is also very good - not at all sharp. I liked the look of the taco casserole with a lot less chilli for me.

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

I wish we had a Costco near us!! I hear so many good things you can buy there! And the casserole was delicious! You could definitely play around with the chili powder.

Where do you get your different containers from

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

Hi there! If you go into the description box of the video, right after the recipes is a list of items used in the video, and those are linked there. :)

[@aprilcollins5382]

I have a question.... So when you are giving points on these meals that you have prepped are they points for the full amount that you fixed or per serving and if points are for serving... how much would be considered a serving. I joined WW to figure out my daily allowance, I am on blue for 26 points a day... yesterday being the first day, I have already dipped into my extra weekly points and then this morning my breakfast was 17 points... yikes... I know it will take some trial and error and meal prep as you have been so helpful to show... can you help me understand the above mentioned questions?

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

Hi April, and welcome!! I will say it does take some getting used to with the points when you first start. Don't let it overwhelm you though. Soon enough you'll know the points on things by heart and it will be kind of second nature. When I give the points, it's per serving. So, for the taco bake, I created that recipe in the recipe builder and told it how many servings I wanted it to be. I knew I wanted it to make six servings, so it took everything and gave me the points for it. I'm actually working on a tutorial of how to build recipes in the WW app that I'm hoping to have out soon. So, if you're on blue and you made that 13x9 lunch, you would cut it into six and each piece would be 2 points. For the breakfast on blue, everything in my little meal prep container was 4 points (2 for the yogurt, 1 for the Canadian bacon, and one for the cheese). What I usually do is try to work around all the zero-point foods. I start with lean meats, eggs, or veggies, and build a meal around those so I can keep the points low. I hope that made sense. If you ever have questions, I believe there's an 800 number you can call to a WW coach who can go through everything in detail with you as well. :)

[@aprilcollins5382]

@@PlanningUsHealthy Thank you so much what you said was very helpful I have been reading up on the website. Thanks for the explanation as to how your points mentioned count. Thanks again!!!

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

@@aprilcollins5382 You're welcome! Also, I certainly didn't mean you couldn't ask me questions. LOL I just meant if you wanted to speak with WW themselves, they have a number you can call for a coach. But I'm more than happy to share anything with you based on my personal experience as well. :)

[@jessicadrake7825]

Are the eggs reheated? Or eaten cold?

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

I just eat mine cold - just like regular hard-boiled eggs - just peel and eat. My husband actually made egg salad with his because he's not a fan of egg whites. But you could definitely heat them if you wanted to. I'd say maybe just put them in some hot water in the shell - if you reheat in the microwave or put in bowling water, they may overcook.

[@patrickmchugh5180]

you're too funny

[@PlanningUsHealthy]

LOL Thank you!! I'll take that as a compliment. Laughter is a good thing!! :)
