I can't tell you how much your videos mean to me. My husband was diagnosed with dementia a year ago. No one can tell you exactly how hard it will be on you to keep them at home but we've been together 40 years and there's no way I can put him in a home, so I find myself turning to your videos for comfort not just for the cooking but for the verses you go over and the way you explain them., I can't even begin to explain to you how much it means to me I thank the Lord for being in my life and for also guiding me to you. Thank you again 💓 💖

God bless you Trisha. I know exactly how you’re feeling and what you’re going through. I’ve been in your shoes. My mother God bless her soul now was diagnosed with dementia as well and I cared for her all alone for 3 years without any offers of help from my siblings. I had many days I cried and prayed to God to help me and guide me and help me help her through this wicked illness she’s dealing with. I will keep you in my prayers and may God bless you and your family.

I know how hard it is. I was a caregiver for my husband for about 26 yrs of our 36 yrs together. The last 4 months he had recieved a transplant and believe me it wasn't as easy as they may have you believe. At one point t the doctor wanted to put me in the hospital. I was completely exhausted.. I couldn't leave e him. I knew that God would carry me through. He's with Jesus now and I'm alone. Caregivers are special people. Their God's helpers. Wives that love their husband's and care for them in hard times are special earthly Angels of the Lord's. God bless you and your husband. 🙏🙏🙏💕 coming your way from Ky. I just now found her channel and I'll be watching more of her. There's a channel that has helped me get through my grief on days that its hard. You might want to try it out.

In the early 70s when I was newly married and poor, someone told me about this recipe and I started making it. We loved it! I still make it occasionally for myself still. Back in my poor days I used hotdogs in casseroles frequently as they were cheaper than any other meat. Maybe not the healthiest but if you are on a very tight budget filling empty stomachs overrides healthy at times!

Hello James ! Back in the 1960's we had a root cellar under the house where I grew up. There were sacks of potatoes, cabbage, carrots, swede, and onions in there. Plus shelves full of home made pickles, jam, and fruit syrup. My frugal mum was an exellent cook. She'd bake 4 large loafs of brown bread every other week. This, plus mostly frozen meat, vegetables, and fish, got us through the winter. (Wich can last for 8 months here...) Stay safe and well. Love from Norway 🇳🇴

@@jamessheridan4306 Well, the supermarket vegetables are scrubbed clean, and mostly wrapped in plastic. As a chef I find this more than just a little annoying. So I shop from market stall holders, when ever I can. The plastic wrapped stuff prompts you to consume even potatoes within a few days. Or they start sprouting ! Buying in bulk from your local farmer however, is a different matter. The root vegetables, leeks, and potatoes still have their dirt on. Wich keeps them fresh for much longer. If stored in a cool and dark place.

No measurements but you use more of the mustard and syrup than any of the others. Add that to canned pork and beans along with onions and green peppers and top with either bacon or hotdogs. If you have time bake for 2.5 hours, adding the meat for the last 45 mins. So good.

Thanks for sharing this recipe! Made this all my life, one of my comfort foods, but use kielbasa (smoked sausage) which costs about as much as hot dogs and tastes 10 times better. Usually I put the potatoes whole in the microwave, take them out when they're done (4-8 min depending on size) chop them up and fry everything together. I fry it in oil and add a little butter at the end for extra flavor, along with salt and pepper. Delicious, filling and doesn't feel "poor" at all!

The poor man's meal has been a strong presence for four generations now in my family. During the depression my dad would feed a family of 10 with 3 to 4 hot dogs and potatoes. When I was growing up, he made us the meal and we thought it was his original recipe and so good. He then shared with us the origins of it. I raised my children with the familiar poor Man's meal also. Now my grandson is familiar with the origins and the history of it in our family. Since he was very young, he was interested in recipes and cooking and we tried to have history through food. He has always researched recipes and made grocery list along with helping me cook. We visit many countries culture through food and last night we had a Scottish recipe. Around the world with food and through Time with the history of recipes.

This is a nice reminder of a meal I used to make. I also made pork and beans with hotdogs and onions cut up. Sometimes I would use a can of ranch style beans and a can of pork and beans, for a different flavor. I always made a it with 2 cans of beans, a whole package of hot dogs and an entire onion.

[@amymartin7508]

Oh my gosh.. I went and married a poor man that was richer than I. LOL. I would love some beans. Huge discussions happen regularly here over beans. Lol. Me.. momma, first day of camp, I'd like chili with beans. I miss them. Grandma uses her potato masher to break the beans to reduce gas btw. Genius. Acts as a thickener too.

Learned of this meal from a 90-year-old woman who had a channel here on KZbin called Depression Era Cooking. 'Edna' shared many stories, recipes, and useful ingredients gathered while growing up during the depression. I'll never forget the story she told about digging up dandelions for salad on the way home from her job at the Dolly Madison factory. Treasure your family now and forever ♾️

I never could get the hang of frying potatoes either. I guess I never did it often enough. I just bake or broil them instead. ✌️😉

[@oldmanfred8676]

@@sylphofthewildwoods5518and Diane C, Put your whole potatoes in the Microwave for 4 minutes, turn them and hit three more minutes. Wait until you can hold them and peel the skin off, comes off easy. I hold them with an oven mitt and do them while they are hot. Cut the baked Potatoes in half and then in one quarter inch pieces. I use Olive Oil and some Butter to fry. Start with high heat for just a couple of minutes and then turn it back to medium heat. Just keep turning your potatoes until they are browned. Perfect fried ‘Taters every time.

[@Teefs]

A little tip for you... If you're frying potatoes in cast iron, use plenty of oil and let them develop a crust before you stir them. That will help keep them from breaking up/getting mushy. You've got this!

[@ccfarmgirl5604]

You are such a blessing Becky. In conversations with my local food bank I’ve been surprised at how little many people know about throwing together an inexpensive meal from scratch. They tend to see folks preferring the highly processed “boxed meals” because they don’t know how to put single ingredients together to make an inexpensive meal. But thanks to lovely souls like yours, that situation is changed. Thank you also for your ministry providing the real food of Life.

[@davidvaughn9]

Are you under the impression that hot dogs aren't processed? One of the absolute worst things you can put inside yourself.

[@lmowner5722]

@@davidvaughn9 I don’t disagree, however, if you are starving, have limited income and a family to feed, unemployed on food stamps, etc. you absolutely would eat this instead of turning your nose up at it because it’s “processed”. Look up Clara and depression cooking. This nice lady is picking up where she left off.

[@ccfarmgirl5604]

@@davidvaughn9 No, I am not under any such misconception and personally never eat hot dogs, bologna and many other such processed meats. Unfortunately though, we currently live in a world where a large majority of people don’t know how to put together two or three simple and basic ingredients to make a meal. The only thing they know to do is open a box of Rice-A-Roni, hamburger helper or instant Mac-n-cheese . In donating basic single ingredients to my local food shelter, I was informed that many of those items might never be taken by those in need, because they wouldn’t have a clue what to do with them. Thanks to channels like this, folks are being blessed with both knowledge to feed their family and wisdom to live a fruitful life.
