Crock potting is my all time favorite way to cook. It always makes me feel so efficient lol. I can pick up the house, run errands, go shopping, talk on the phone, pay bills, set appts, have lunch with the girls all while cooking dinner. Wonder woman!! 😂😂😂
Merry Christmas my Sister in Christ! Love you and your beautiful family! Enjoy each moment, pray for us me and my Sister have two brand new baby girls this year, but we have also got Covid, so please pray our ba is don’t get this sickness
Hey Mel! Thanks for doing this video. I am disabled and my son makes me a batch meal in the slow cooker every week so my carers can just heat it up in the microwave every day. So this video is going to be a real treasure trove! I still watch all your videos, even though I can't utilise the recipes as I love your channel and love hearing your Southern accent. Bless you and your family and have a happy Christmas and a prosperous 2025. Love Rachel from Welwyn Garden City UK. ❤❤
How very sweet you are, thank you. And I am so happy to hear that this video will be a real help to your son. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a very Happy New Year!
Love these videos. And, Mel....as the comedian John Panette said...."you can honestly say you probably lost your cherub-like demeanor on Salisbury Meatball day! haha Thanks for all the great recipes.
You're speaking my language, Mel. I know I've said before just how much I love and use my crockpot and crockpot recipes make me so excited. I love trying new ones. I know these won't disappoint. They all look and sound delicious and I'll be looking forward to trying them . Nothing better than having a cozy pajama day when it's cold outside with a crockpot meal cooking and making the house smell good. Thank you so much for these recipes and for all of your hard work throughout the year. I hope you and your family have a blessed and beautiful Christmas. ❤🎄✨
I'm so excited to watch your crock pot video! I just used mine this evening! I always look forward to your Sunday videos! I can't even tell you how many of your recipes I've made and my family LOVED them all! May God bless you and your family in the New Year! Merry Christmas to you and yours! Love ya! Mona Figolah
Hello Mama Mel, I've enjoyed all of the recipes, i love to use my crockpot. They are so convenient, i will definitely try that meatball one. Ya'll be blessed and enjoy each other and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. From me and my family to yours. ❤❤❤
I didn't know I liked hard shells until I put them in the air fryer first before assembling and now I like them more than soft. Soooo good in the aifryer
I really love watching your videos! You are one of the sweetest person that I've ever seen! You have a big heart! And love God, and we can see it from the way look, act and talk! I hope that you and your family have a very Merry Christmas! I love you!❤ I'll see you on your next video! Bye for now!
I truly enjoyed your last video and this one is going to be good, too. I love all things crockpot. We'll be using ours for Christmas. We're doing our new favorite recipe for Christmas. Chicken pot pie meets chicken and dumplings. It's chicken pot pie filling with rosemary and parmesan biscuits on top.
Hello Mrs.Alma, How are y'all doing tonight?We are doing well. Thanks for all of your prayers for Oscar 's brother, they had to take his foot off due to diabetes, but he's in good spirits so far. Hopefully he will be home one day this week. He's going to get a prothesis. Hopefully i spelled it right. Sending continued prayers to y'all. Have a Merry Christmas. Love from Lula mae and Oscar. ❤❤❤
@@lulamcrae2851 hey Lula and Oscar. We're doing good. It was our pleasure to pray for him. We'll continue to pray for him. We appreciate all the prayers and continued prayers. Merry Christmas from us to y'all.
Hi Mel, I loved this video and the last one. Both have great recipes that I want to try. Those Salisbury Steak Meatballs look amazing and the Crescent Lasagna. Thank you for all your hard work that you do, so that viewers like me-can have an access to great recipes for all occasions.😊
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Minnesota, Mel and family! I love your channel and all your videos!! Thank you for sharing and I hope you continue to share!!
Merry Christmas Mama Mel to you and your family! Thank you for coming into our lives every week with delicious meals and desserts. I love your uplifting spirit and humor! I look forward to many more wonderful videos! God Bless! ♥️💚🎄♥️💚⛄️
Hello. I know it’s a basic thing. But can you do a quick video on how you prepare your salads. In a previous video you said you use a salad spinner and you stored it in a bag with a paper towel. Can you show us how to do that? And I’m curious what type of lettuce you use?
I sure will, and I usually buy romaine or iceberg - I really like green leaf but it just doesn't seem to last as long. And if it's a really crazy week and I just want to grab some bagged salad or lettuce that's already cut and washed I will go for shredded green leaf or butter lettuce - for some reason they don't get that weird taste that some bagged salads have. Oh and I personally love the chopped salad kits, they are mostly cabbage with some kale or brussels sprouts cut up in them but Patrick and Maddie are not big fans of them, LOL
I wish my husband liked dishes like this I know I myself would enjoy dishes like this.🎄🎁🤶🎅🧑🎄 Merry Christmas momma Mel and family also a Happy New Year 🎄🎁🎄🎁
Oh all of the crockpot recipes look so yummy and delicious I can't wait to try all of them and thank you for sharing your recipes and God Bless y'all Merry Christmas to you and your family 🙏
Yes I enjoyed watching you and I enjoyed your recipes. Fixed so many of them. Thank you. Have a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. God love you and your family 😘🎉❤❤❤
Good morning momma mel. Your sound like I was a few days ago 😂. Don't blow your top off completely, it's gonna get better. Recipes look delicious. Merry Christmas to you and your family ♥️🌲🌲🌲🙏🙏🙏
WE LOVED IT !!! 😊 they are all gone ! I didn't word things right. What I made was the Salisbury steak meatballs !!! Delicious ! Easy !! Thank you thank you !!
This first recipe made me think of a recipe that I made for Christmas. It’s Paula Deen’s Sloppy Joe meatballs. They are an appetizer but girl! They are so delicious. They are also homeade so break out those rubber gloves! You WILL NOT be sorry. You could actually use them as your main course. Make some rice or noodles. Delicious! I’ll send it to you if you give me your email.
you are the opposite of me. I LOVE CRUNCHY TACO SHELLS! But I usually just make like a taco salad, even though I leave off the salad. I do not like ANY raw veggies!!! Gross! I love your recipes. I am going to make the garlic parm chicken and taters today! I'm starving just thinking about it! Thank you Mamma Mel! Have a wonderful day! Crockpots are the best!
I am also a sister in the lord and I read my bible every day and I recently discovered what yada yada yada means in hebrew.I think it would be to your benefit to look that up.I love you, sister, take care and thank you for all your videos
If it was me, I would double the recipe of the meat and potatoes so leftovers could be turned into chunky meat& potato soup with a few mushrooms thrown in. If you have ever tried the Campbells chunky meat & potato soup…you know what I mean. I wonder if you could get the same flavor if you used the golden cream of mushroom? I think it might be better to just use a little flour to thicken it, then add in some beef broth. You would just have to play around with it. My ex use to not eat soup until I got him to try this soup. Then he opened up his mind to some other types. 🙂
Those little packets came in a box that I got at Ollie's Bargain Outlet a LONG time ago LOL Each one makes 2 cups so it's not the most convenient but I finally used them up. I just bought a jar of beef bouillon powder for $1.88 - it makes about 27 cups and you can just use exactly the amount you need, they also have chicken bouillon powder, too. Hope this helps. Oh and I love the Better Than Bouillon paste that you keep in the fridge - same concept - mix with water to make what you need but it's a little more expensive - but it does taste delicious LOL
