pot roast hack use a packet of beefy onion soup mix and a beer to loosen the bits at the bottom of the pan.
I used to make stuff over toast which was tuna and peas in a thickened wmilk and a can of cream of mushroom soup seasoned with simplicity pepper and garlic powder
My Baba and Mother made Halushski but they poured burnt butter on it, YES I SAID BURNT BUTTER the taste os awesome. They also put burnt butter on pierogie. Try it on cauliflower it's great. SERIOUSLY TRY IT.
My Mother in Law used to make an orange jello carrot desert. It has been a long time but… I think it was orange jello with shredded carrots. not sure if she put anything else in it. Sooooooooooo good!
Girl not only are we BESTIES in my head but we’re sisters we like our food the exact same way. My fav Chips and dip. My pizza HAD TO crunchy crust!!! Love love love all you do! I’ve learned so much from you. If you’re ever in AUSTIN TX hit me up I would love to buy you a drink and dinner!!!!
4 cans of Bisquits for a dollar.
My mom cooked the hamburger steaks first like you

Did your mother ever make Chow Mein using the can ingredients? My mom did it was good but I can’t quit remember how she did it.
That’s exactly how hash browns should be cooked!
I’ve never had the strawberry salad but I’m gonna make it!

Love your recipe Thank you Nicole. Have you ever have Bretel butter? I try your pot roast and mash potato recipe but put a little xtra Bretel butter in my marsh potato is delicious
This video has brought back so many wonderful childhood memories. Thank you for sharing your mama’s recipes!
My grandmother used to sauté asparagus, onions and potatoes together until tender, then add scrambled eggs and top with a bit of Pecorino Romano cheese… oh so good, complete meal
Do you have cookbooks
Informácie sú podané jasne a zrozumiteľne.
Nicole, I am 62 years old and today I learned from you not to add cornstarch to hot liquid. Old dog, new trick.
Our family still does Sunday dinner. And the majority of the time it was roast with potatoes and carrots, NO mashed potatoes, but we did have either home canned green beans or peas or butterbeans(always out of the garden), and a bug pan of cornbread! And a bug ol glass of sweet tea! That's what we always had on Sundays in Mississippi!
But I thought my arm was going to fall off writing down all these recipes! I am a big cook, love to cook and try new recipes! It gets old having the same thing all the time! But I have found some great recipes my hubby loves and insist we add them into the recipe
Love all your recipies takes me back to those days
I love to binge watch your videos !!! You are my Fav on YouTube !!!
You can also add crushed pecans on that monkey bread.. yummm
