It's never fun having a sick baby ( no matter how old they are ). Thanks for the video it's super helpful and just so relaxing to watch. You look gorgeous as always. Love your nails !!!

[@MandyintheMaking]

You are so kind ❤️ And yes, it's so tough seeing our kiddos sick!

[@cassielukens7772]

I loved your brown sparkly nails, too! I'm new to your videos but I'm loving them! Steven and the garlic press was hilarious! 😂

[@mintbutterfly10]

When I don’t feel well, I come watch Mandy cooking in years past ♥️

[@Nytingalle]

Hubs has some real deal chopping skills! You two could totally do more cooking together videos and I’d tune in! Nice job on the video y’all

[@MandyintheMaking]

Thanks Sarah! He loves chopping veggies 😍

[@faance1]

I didn’t get to see your recent live segment but I’m so glad I was able to watch it later. You mentioned how nervous you were (I can only imagine)but even so you seemed so natural, not scripted or rehearsed, it was great.

[@MandyintheMaking]

You are so sweet. Thank you Nancy ❤️😊

[@Nittanykzm]

The Zuppa Tuscana is my favorite soup too. I like it so well that I grow my own kale. I grew so much that I had to freeze the kale leaves in gallon Zip Lock freezer bags. I stumbled on a real quick tip by accident. Take the bag of frozen kale and crush it up with your hands. It breaks up into small pieces which I like better than larger pieces. Keep those great recipes coming.

[@28amandajane]

Thanks for sharing!! I liked the scoreboard for clean up and difficulty!! Can’t wait to try the recipes!

[@MandyintheMaking]

Thanks for the feedback on the scoreboard and for watching! 🥰

[@elainemullins7860]

What a nice way to ask people to subscribe. It is cold this week in KY so I will be making the soup recipe. I like that you have added the difficulty and clean up scale, very helpful. My daughter comes to see me on Thursdays and we have a "Mandy In The Making" conversation about your recipes. We both love watching you and yours.

[@MandyintheMaking]

Elaine, you just made my day. Thank you so much. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jenny45Bravo]

All the recipes looked delicious. The orange chicken was drool worthy! Best wishes for Cole’s speedy recovery and hope you and hub stay well. I enjoy your video’s so much-always leave with a smile. Thank you.

[@MandyintheMaking]

Aw thank you so much, Fran. That orange chicken was great!! Cole is starting to feel much better today!

[@Marie-of6fp]

That is my favorite soup at Olive Garden (Zuppa Toscana). It is SOOOO flavorful. Thanks for sharing and I will try this recipe now and I can have my favorite soup at home!

[@MandyintheMaking]

Yay!! That's a huge win in my book!

[@debbifaust3106]

@@MandyintheMaking Not long ago I made the Zuppa soup and my husband said what Stephen said.....this is better than the Olive Garden soup.

Love the Scorecard!! Just noticed. AND omg Steven at the end! GAHHHLIC

Bwahahaha girl you know how goofy he is 🤦😂

You're my new Hero!!!!! I love watching your videos, and already have tried a couple recipes and can't wait to try some more. I watch you every night on my smart TV and do I get hungry!!! Keep 'em coming on!!! ♥♥

[@patriciaborron94]

Thanks for the recipes. Hope Cole is feeling much better. Really enjoyed Stephen crushing the garlic. Hilarious accent. I think that should be his job from now on. Those garlic presses take a good deal of hand strength.

[@jimmysolomon9633]

Yummmmmm! Hope you feel better Cole-Man!

[@MandyintheMaking]

Thank you! 🥰

I think I might make zuppa toscana this weekend! It sounds good right now

Hope you enjoy it! 🥰😘

[@tracyboleware3741]

I absolutely love your channel and all of your videos. Steven is such a great husband. He is definitely supporting your ideas! Love seeing beautiful Grace. Hope Cole is much better from having the flu. Love you Mandy! Thank you ❤️

[@MarshaGJ]

I am so glad I found your channel! I printed all 3 recipes!

[@jeannetteerrett6501]

Great videos! So glad I found your channel! Think I’ve saved every one so far! LOL. A helpful tip for you, anytime you use tomato paste, add it to your sautéing veggies, coated them & let it cook for a few minutes before adding any liquid. It adds so much to the flavor of the dish. I do this especially when I make beef stock from soup bones. Blessings upon you and the boys!

[@pattieann8673]

I like your new clean up and easy to cook scales!!! 🤓

[@MandyintheMaking]

Hello Andy my name is Jessica. I am a big fan I subscribed to your Channel about maybe three or four months ago and I have been hooked. I love your content. I am Homebound and disabled so I have a lot of free time on my hands and I truly enjoy watching your videos you are the main Channel that I watch. I love this video because Steven was hoping you in the kitchen which I think is awesome! Not many men help out in the kitchen really. You guys are such an awesome couple. Keep doing what you doing thank you so much❤

[@mariat3276]

I purchased this chopper from Amazon after seeing it in your video. I love it! Thank you!

[@tiaraashlee4026]

Your videos are literally like a step by step cooking tutorial, thank you for being you and allowing me to get dinner on the table every night for my fiance who is a line cook. I love the way I feel when he explains the flavors like your husband does and I feel so proud for proving him with a good filling dinner after his days in the kitchen. I love you Mandy!!!

[@muchelleeaton6131]

Poor Cole, he didn't even need to get in this one at all. Poor baby, hope he is feeling much better by now. Everything looked yummy, I will have to try them all, thank you so much for sharing 😀 😀😀 😀.

[@MandyintheMaking]

Thank you! 🥰

[@leadavis494]

Every dish in this episode made me hungry and are on my list of things to make. Steven has that onion peeling, dicing game on point! I love how you two cook together and support one another. And I can tell you. If my man looked at me like that when I made a meal he liked, I would definitely cook for him again and again! I see how you appreciate one another. Never lose that.

[@drodriguez2968]

Hi Mandy! I’m teaching myself how to cook mainly via KZbin. Your videos & meals I save the most and ENJOY cooking!!! Sooooo delicious! I want a Dutch Oven but with just learning how to cook, not sure what quart size to get. Appreciate your take…. Thanks!

[@kaycarver9137]

So enjoy watching you guys in the kitchen! You two make the perfect team!

[@flagatorgurl]

I have my own Zappa Toscana, but any homemade Zappa is the best. I love the idea of using kale to a recipe

[@joanodonnell2646]

Mandy, great recipes. I have made both the chicken caccatorie and zuppa toscana soup and love them both. I substitute the kale in the soup with spinach though. I am a avid soup lover so will be making the soup tomorrow. Great to see Steven helping you cook! I pray that Cole recovers quickly from the flu. Thanks for filming beautiful Gracie in this video. I adore seeing her as always. Great job on this video! Love y'all. ❤😼😼❤

[@MandyintheMaking]

Thank you, Joan! ❤️

[@lornahill5728]

I wasn’t sure what my family would think about the kale in the Zuppa Toscana, but it was really good! I served it with some crusty bread and butter. Great flavor!

[@stephaniewhitaker5253]

It all looks fantastic. I have a similar Orange chicken recipe, but the sauce is made with chunky Orange marmalade and orange juice so you really get that lovely zesty taste. You are right it is probably double the amount of sauce, so you can put some on the rice too. I pray Cole feels much better

[@MandyintheMaking]

Yes, so good! And he's feeling much better! Thank you 😊❤️

[@-angie.]

Poor Cole...hope you feel better real quick Buddy! Mandy everything looks delicious...especially the Zuppa, but my favorite from OG has to be the Chicken Gnocchi. Emmmmm... lol, between watching this video and thinking about the Chicken Gnocchi I need a bib...I'm drooling! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I always look forward to your “What’s for Dinner” videos. Definitely one of the best , if not THE BEST cooking shows on you tube. As a cook of many years, I learn so many good recipes from a young “whipper-snapper” young enough to be my daughter. I love your photography..shots are always so clear and the close ups of the prep are amazing. Like I said, the best on the “Tube”. I know you edit, but everything always looks so easy, precise and “clean”....(that coming from the messiest cook in the kitchen...when will I get better?!) You are a beautiful young lady and I hope you’ll be posting new videos for a very long time..
