[@sajohnson09]

Bruh, you and AB be on point in the clutch with these recipes. Since you asked about one we'd like to see, personally I'd love a good green bean casserole.

[@GrandmaPatty49]

It’s in the cookbook Best of Both Worlds with AB.

[@keelaleath4037]

Making this tonight after this hot 10hr shift! Thanks again Matt for helping feed my family 🙂 I love how conscious you are of offering high/low budget meals.

[@catherineharris27]

Just a tip when cooking rice 🍚 instead of using water always add chicken broth or chicken powder to the water to make chicken broth/stock. Its delicious 😋 and it gives the rice so much flavor 😋 I learned that tip by trying it to give my rice a chicken flavor n it just clicked and my family loved it so I have to cook my rice in cb now always. Especially when making chicken and rice dishes! So much flavor and you won't regret it. The result are endless. I love ur ALL of ur recipes. Congratulations on the new Lemon Bae seasoning! Can't wait to buy your collection of products.

[@arlenewallace1306]

I just ordered the new spice and it’s already shipped. Now that service. Good food and good service. Way to go Matt.

I just made this for a quick Sunday dinner, however, I used low-sodium yellow rice (same brand), unsalted butter, Mexican blend cheese, and added mushrooms. It looks and tastes delicious. Thank you. You always make great and tasty meal options.

[@dacarri03hobley29]

Good morning chef happy thirsty Thursday this meal looks amazing 😋😋🤩🤩

[@valerielyons7401]

Oh This Looks So Delicious!!! Mmm, got me wanting some of this Dish.😋😋😋

[@dianejohanson98]

I have to make this. I’ve never used yellow rice before. This looks so good! I have a request. Have you ever made or eaten shrimp o’gratin? I used to be able to get it in New Orleans, but the restaurant closed after a big hurricane tore up the place. It was so delicious and was made with some kind of white cheese. Last time we traveled there and ate there before the storm, they changed the cheese to cheddar and it made the shrimp o’gratin really greasy and it wasn’t the same. Was hoping you could recreate a recipe for it. I would greatly appreciate it!

[@cindygirl8849]

I just made this with chicken as well as smoked sausage and it was Devine 😋

[@Rithickulous01]

About to make this RIGHT NOW 😋

[@barbaraajohn8027]
