That's fantastic! Classic dishes have a timeless appeal, don't they? It's wonderful that you've kept those traditions going strong with your family over the years.
Yeah, I think most Americans are stillfamiliar with chicken pot pie and sloppy joes. I don't think that these dinners are known outside the USA though. In the UK, they might know that in the USA they eat sloppy Joes but the British themselves don't necessarily serve them for dinner nor in restaurants or pubs .
I am married to a BRITISH MAN, 51 Years, and the dishes you show here, are very similar to BRITISH COOKING and even GERMAN CUISINE. I still love to cook these dishes, they are wholesome, comforting .❤❤❤
Still make 60% of these dishes. My mom made these, I’ve made them for my family and my children make them for their families. A majority of these dishes are very affordable and can be updated to be healthier.
That's wonderful to hear! Passing down those recipes through generations must be very special. It's great that you've found ways to keep them affordable and healthier too.
Love stuffed peppers. I use Rice-a-Roni Spanish rice mix, made according to directions, and add browned ground beef. You could use ground turkey, chicken or lamb, too. And has to have at least two kinds of cheese on top.
I’d always get chicken pot pie in the Boston Market on lunch break in the earlier 2000’s. I still eat sloppy Joe’s with carrot sticks. I’m def need to make Lobster Newburg. Love stuffed peppers & stuffed cabbage! Let me just shut up. I still eat a lot of things here which I plan to forever. I’m 49 & in exceptionally good shape. I love to try things I haven’t from whatever times. I appreciate all foods. There are people not so lucky to do so. Great vid!
I'm an American married to a Frenchman living in France. My husband was surprised at the French dishes I made when he met me in THE US . I still make beef bourginon, but I wait until the wild mushrooms are available at our outdoor market. Quiche I used to make, but since moving to Paris, it's just easier to buy it from the bakery. My French husband won't even go near a tuna casserole, or anything made with canned soup. As for liver, he hates beef liver, but adores rabbit and chicken livers, which I serve with a mustard wine sauce after sauteing the livers. But, I remember many of these dishes growing up.
With the exception of FONDUE bourguignon and lobster thermador, I make ALL OF THESE still! Chicken a la king was the first dish I ever made on my own in about 1974. I make the bacon wrapped water chestnut without the chick liver. As a matter of fact tonite is mussels in a white wine/garlic sauce and crab cakes with remoulade sauce and grilled garlic bread points. At home for my miner husband. 😁 Never too old or young to stay with the tried and true while also expanding your culinary horizons😊😊
Started making old timey meals. It's a surprise how good some of these are. My last one was a four day beef Wellington. One of the best things I've ever ate in my life.
That's great to hear that Sloppy Joes are still a hit in your household! It's true, the cost of beef can make it a bit tougher to enjoy them as often. Have you tried any variations, like using ground turkey or even a veggie version? It might be a fun way to mix things up and keep the tradition going!
I still make a lot of these... me and my brothers hated liver and onions, but my parents made us eat it 🤢lol... Try this on your corned beef... add 2-3 tablespoons to a bowl... then add honey until you taste the Dijon... set your oven on broil... with a silicone brush... brush the mix on the corned beef put it in the oven for about 5-10 minutes... it should start to be bubbley... brush some more on it, and put it back in the oven until there are some black charred spots... and it'll bubbling... any extra sauce can be heated and poured on the cabbage... mu husband loves it this way and so do I... I hope you like it 💜💜💜
That sounds like a delicious twist on corned beef.The Dijon and honey glaze method sounds amazing.I'll definitely give it a try. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I'm 67 and I still make most of these. Great list . . . thank you ever so much for sharing. In fact, I do believe I'm gonna try my hand at a crusty chicken pot pie this week! Oh . . . there was one staple on my Mom's table almost every Friday with fried fish and that was MAC and Cheese . . . Mom made the absolute best with tons of butter, cream and cheese!
@@OldGloryDays77 Many of your videos have been making it into my TH-cam recommendations and I have to admit . . . I enjoy them all! I'm a USAF Vet living in Spain and lately . . . lately, I'm very, very homesick. Again, thank you so much for sharing these videos. I have subscribed and requested all notifications. I do so hope you are having a blessed, summer day!
I still make a lot of these but do from scratch instead of using canned soups etc, my family love them (except the the liver ones, those I get to enjoy on my own 😂😂)
I grew up in the 70 and 80 when my mennonite grandma and English grandma and my English mom all us four girls would make homemade chicken pot pie and chicken pot pie filling and put chicken pot pies and chicken pot pie filling in our big chest freezers for the winter. I have been looking for the 70 cookbook.
Most of these I still enjoy! Much better than today's foo-foo fancy salads and small niblets of fish! Everything in moderation = much less risk of heart attack!
I still cook alot of these for my family, especially the pot pie, stuffed peppers, beef stroganoff (big family favorite) plus several other ones. They are still served in diners
Still make: Chicken Pot Pie. Sloppy Joes Stuffed Bell Peppers Chicken A La King Beef Bourginon Ham & Scalloped Potatoes Tuna Noodle Casserole Beef Stroganoff Spinach Dip Marsala (chicken) Shrimp cocktail Corned Beef (no cabbage) I don't like lobster so never ate those dishes. Same with livers of any kind. Never cared for quiche or fish either. I haven't been brave enough to attempt the Beef Wellington at home yet.
That's an impressive list of classics.It's wonderful that you continue to enjoy preparing these dishes. Beef Wellington can be a challenge, but maybe one day you'll give it a shot it could be a new culinary adventure.
@@OldGloryDays77 oh how quaint, you don't know how to speak to a woman properly and like to call me dear. I do have a name and it can be used, while you may be stuck in the past the rest of the world is not.
Chicken pot pie, Turkey al a king with leftover turkey from Thanksgiving, Boeuf Bourgignon are still family favorites today. We do miss lobster Newburgh and Thermidor. Liver, onions and bacon are still served in some local pubs here.
Those dishes are timeless classics! 🥧🍗🍖 I agree, Lobster Newburg and Thermidor are definitely missed. Nice to hear liver and onions are still going strong at your local pubs.
That’s not true I’m generation X. I’m not talking about myself, but I know some people that cook for themselves. My niece is marrying a guy that owns a farm. They do farm table. They’re out there. She owns three or four cows and some goats and some cows one bull I know people at work too that are younger and they cook their own food and some of it is this food. This video sucks. I’m sorry yeah all the people I’m talking about are in their 20s except for me. I’m 46.
I still do the stuffed bell peppers, but I used meatloaf to stuff the bell peppers with that way I can top with almost anything including spaghetti sauce
I still do a scratch-made chicken pot pie in the winter, my 12 yr old loves sloppy joes, and I just made stuffed peppers the other night. I was born in the mid 80s and came from a family that cooked more than we ate out. I think it’s just preference and what you grew up with. Some people didn’t eat these meals so they don’t get made but what do I know lol
That's awesome.It's great to see those classics still being enjoyed. It really does depend on what you grew up with. Your 12-year-old has great taste. 😊
@@OldGloryDays77 nah methinks you misunderstand. yes it is and oldy but goody. but so is pizza and burgers you know what i mean? and most texans eat that at least once a month.
OMG I am from France and I am so surprised that you guys know our food like Boeuf bouguignon, quiche loraine and fondue bourguignone. You used to eat that home or restaurant ????
Wow, that's awesome! We love French cuisine like Boeuf Bourguignon, Quiche Lorraine, and Fondue Bourguignonne. We enjoy them both at home and in restaurants. Such delicious classics!🍽️😊
So far, I haven't seen a single dish that I haven't prepared recently except for the lobster dishes. That is only due go the astronomically high cost of lobsters. The rest, I routinely make since homemade is much better health wise than store bought or processed. Take seafood Newburg, I can make this to feed six grown adults for about $40 total. Or I can buy Seafood Newbury for $25 per plate at Red Lobster. So $40 compared to $175, that's including drinks and tip. All of the meals need some prep we usually do the night before, and only Beef Wellington takes 3 - 5 hours prep and cook time. So with doing the prep like the night before, most of these meals are cooked and served in an hour or less.
Cooking these dishes at home not only saves money but also ensures healthier and often tastier meals. It sounds like your cooking routine is both efficient and delicious.
Spinach dip isn't forgotten. It's on the menu of many restaurants today. So is quiche lorraine. We make chicken pot pie at home, and it's a favorite at our local Irish place. We also make beef bourgouinion (however you spell that).
Well I can tell now. You never went without. And we went without lobster until I was in my 20. And now I'm in my 40s. We are going without lobster again. It tasted good. But there's dollars don't.
Most of these are still around. Gordon Ramsay brought back the Beef Wellington, TikTok proves that. The lobster thermidor ( a craft in itself) has always been a fine dining dish that if found will mostly be found on east coast. Due to the fact of freshness and long gone are the lobster tanks in restaurants. This is mainly due to health reasons and cost. Shrimp cocktails are still around, but only made by those who aren't too lazy to properly prepare them. Everything you listed takes, time, care and knowledge to prepare and cook with exception of the Manwich/Sloppy Joe. Quite a bit of homes don't want to or aren't able to meet those requirements, which is why the Manwich/ Sloppy Joe are still very much a favorite nation wide. Plus can't eat most if the dishes listed and be on one's phone either. I noticed since about the mid 90s to today how many of the late Gen X and Millennials had/have no idea how to make a casserole, much less a meatball or even how to cook a decent meal in 30 minutes. No way they can or could teach theur children.
Thanks for your comment! You're right some dishes like Beef Wellington and lobster thermidor are still around, especially in fine dining. It's true that many traditional dishes take time and skill to prepare, which is why simpler meals like Manwich/Sloppy Joes are still popular. Cooking habits have definitely changed over the years, and many people today don't cook from scratch as much as before. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
My sloppy joes are onion and bell peppers with the mince, ketchup, bbq sauce and some mustard. Garlic salt pepper. I add some shredded cheese to make it melts and creamy.
I haven't eaten Chicken a la King since I got my first taste from a CDN army IMP pack back in '84. I'd trade every one I got since then like a hot potato.
That's a great memory! Chicken Ala King was definitely a popular dish back in the day. It must have been quite a treat to have that as an MRE in the Army. Thanks for sharing your experience!
When Charles Foster Kane's friend Jed Leland resigned from the New York Enquirer and moved to Chicago, Kane remarked "Gosh only knows if they've ever heard of Lobster Newburg."
Beef Wellington was named for the Duke of Wellington. In honour of his victory over Napoleon at Waterloo. Created by Marie Antoine Careme the king of Chef's and the chef of Kings, when he was employed by the Prince Reagent. Quiche Loraine; smoked ham, leeks ementhaler cheese eggs.
Indeed they are. Wellington was asked what he wanted to eat at his feast the Prince Reagent was throwing in his honour. Wellington replied "roast beef " Careme being so French and such a Master was insulted by the request but bound to follow orders dreamed up Beef Wellington. Originally it had fois gras and truffles
I get that. These dinners might still be popular for many. It’s interesting how some meals stay in our lives while others fade away. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 😊
Which 1970s Dinner you Remember? Let us know in the comments!
@@OldGloryDays77 pot pies, chopped beef, tv dinners….more

I’m SO hungry now! Good memories. I still do some dishes at 64!

I regularly make over half of these meals for my family. Chicken pot pies, quiche, beef stew, different meatballs. . .
These meals are timeless favorites.

Beef Stroganoff was served over mashed potatoes in Russia if i remember correctly. Served on egg noodles or rice is an American addition.

Stuffed cabbage was good, also. And when the cabbage leaves were adequately softened, they're closer to fork tender than stuffed peppers.
Stuffed cabbage is a favorite.
Anything that takes time and money is fading away.

Because nobody has any damn money
Because millennials and Gen Z are impatient. They need their food fix now!!!

Cooking habits have definitely changed over the years, and many people today don't cook from scratch as much as before. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Well said. From a old chef 50yrs experience, still going strong.
Most of these are to upscale for most families to have
That's true,many of these dishes were considered more upscale or special back then.
My sloppy joes are onion and bell peppers with the mince, ketchup, bbq sauce and some mustard. Garlic salt pepper. I add some shredded cheese to make it melts and creamy.
That sounds tasty!
I haven't eaten Chicken a la King since I got my first taste from a CDN army IMP pack back in '84. I'd trade every one I got since then like a hot potato.
That's quite a memory. It's funny how certain foods can leave a lasting impression.
Don't care for your lobsters. Hopefully you got some chicken and dumplings in here. Now we'll definitely eat the whole pot
I understand! Chicken and dumplings are a classic favorite. It’s always a hit! 😊
😋 Yummy DELICIOUS Food!!!
Thank you 😋
I used to trade to get the chicken Ala king MRE in the Army
That's a great memory! Chicken Ala King was definitely a popular dish back in the day. It must have been quite a treat to have that as an MRE in the Army. Thanks for sharing your experience!
You would have been my pal in the CDN Infantry. I hated that meal pack. At least the mess hall made a decent version.
My mother was a dreadful cook. We never had any of these. But her meatloaf was hard enough to be used in a sling: great weapon!
Sounds like her meatloaf had more uses than just dinner! Did she have any other memorable dishes?
Honey corned beef is still served everywhere up the ying yang. And yes it's freaking expensive now
You're right..honey corned beef is everywhere, but the price is definitely steep these days.
When Charles Foster Kane's friend Jed Leland resigned from the New York Enquirer and moved to Chicago, Kane remarked "Gosh only knows if they've ever heard of Lobster Newburg."
What a great reference!.Lobster Newburg certainly has a storied past.
I remember seafood Newburg
Seafood Newburg is a classic! Such a rich and creamy dish. Thanks for sharing your memory!
Beef Wellington was named for the Duke of Wellington. In honour of his victory over Napoleon at Waterloo. Created by Marie Antoine Careme the king of Chef's and the chef of Kings, when he was employed by the Prince Reagent.
Quiche Loraine; smoked ham, leeks ementhaler cheese eggs.
Thanks for the fascinating info on Beef Wellington and Quiche Lorraine! It's amazing how history and food are intertwined. 🍽️
Indeed they are.
Wellington was asked what he wanted to eat at his feast the Prince Reagent was throwing in his honour.
Wellington replied "roast beef " Careme being so French and such a Master was insulted by the request but bound to follow orders dreamed up Beef Wellington.
Originally it had fois gras and truffles
Ick…liver & onions.
I could never stomach it. 😮😢
Liver & onions isn't for everyone! It's definitely a polarizing dish.
@@OldGloryDays77 definitely 😂
Bell Peppers , and hamburge is too expensive now
Lobster is too expensive now
Stuffed bell peppers are still common in Mexican American households …
Beef Wellington is still alive and well in the U.K.
Glad to hear Beef Wellington is still thriving in the U.K. Thanks for the update.
Stuffed Bell Peppers are still a thing. Hasn't gone away AFAIK.
That's fun do what you want but it looks nasty. I would hope there's no double dipping in that pot.
The reason why these meals are not longer served is because it's too expensive to make now. Even Kraft Mac & cheese when from 25cents a box to 3$
True, the cost of ingredients has really gone up! It’s wild to see how prices have changed over the years.
Cream cheese is too expensive now
Seafood is too expensive now
Eggs are too expensive now and so is cream and bacon
I still make stuffed peppers
That's great.Stuffed peppers are a timeless classic.
I love to make chicken pot pie
I still gag, thinking of tuna and noodles
Totally understandable! Tuna and noodles can be hit or miss for a lot of people. Everyone has their own food preferences! 😊
7:56 Is that a baby cooking the food? whats with the baby hands?...lol.
Haha Not a baby..just a short-height girl's hands! 😄
These are certainly not forgotten dinners . Everyone I know still eats most of this/.
I get that. These dinners might still be popular for many. It’s interesting how some meals stay in our lives while others fade away. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 😊
Meat is so expensive now I only eat meat 2x week
Got it! Meat prices are up.
Chicken is good expensive now
We still eat chicken pot pies.
Ham is too expensive now
