Love this video! Will definitely give this week meal prep a go! Can I ask with the made up cottage pie, lasanga & bolognese did you leave them in the fridge until the day your going to cook them? x
Thank you so much for this video it has helped more than you can realise I live alone and always struggling with things to do
you are so welcome :) I am so glad you enjoyed it and its helped :) xxx
Im a big batch cooker and meal prepper. With my slow cooker and instant pot I double up recipes and freeze one or more portions for later. Being dairy free (and celiac) I found you eat a lot of cheese! Not so many folk doing food for those of us like this. Maybe once my kitchen is refitted, I might start a channel, haha! Love your kitchen, we finally have a bigger kitchen in this property, so we don’t get under each others feet!
Excellent Kerry. Thank you. Please do more like this.
So glad you enjoyed this :) I thought I would make a video like this once a month or so as it also just makes my life so much easier too :) xxx
That was fabulously helpful! A wonderful reminder about some of your delicious classics all in one place. Loved the hacks! Thank you.
So glad you enjoyed this.. ill film another one soon :) xxx
Fantastic video kerry, thanks for sharing your recipe ideas and tips
you are so welcome :) Thank you for watching xxx
Love the croquette hack
Try flouring your hands or wetting them when shaping the pork burgers xxx
I always love these videos for meal prep inspiration. I live alone so obviously don’t need the quantities you do, but I find prepping really helps me reduce how much food I throw away - and that’s always a risk when you’re cooking for one!
It makes life so much easier and you can still cook in bulk but then use those glass dishes for your meal portions as they hold the perfect amount for a single portion :) xxx
I pretty much use up everything but just in case there’s a tiny bit left, my black labradors are ready & waiting 🤣
Brilliant!!!! I’d love to see more of these x
I love that your sauce went into so many dishes, also I love that so many of the dishes are similar but not the same to add variation, brilliant idea Kerry and yes please more videos like this please:) x
Honestly the sauce I make is so versatile and so I make a big batch up each week :) super healthy too which makes me happy 🥰🥰🥰
Brilliant, a great selection of dishes, thank you for all of the time you put into making this video xx
you are welcome :) I am so glad you enjoyed it xxx
I love your channel! I was looking for some inspiration for cooking with my new air fryer. I really didn’t have a clue. You explain things so simply and have such a lovely attitude. I’ve just cooked my first roast chicken and am so pleased with the result!
Don’t take any notice of any negative comments. There are some sad people out there!
oh im so pleased you love your air fryer.. ive got an air fryer video coming out this Sunday so I hope you enjoy that one too :) xxx
Hi Kerry, love your videos. Great idea to meal prep for the week. I will definitely be using these recipes I am too tired sometimes after work to cook a meal from scratch! Thank you! 😊
Honestly.. I’ve had the easiest week for cooking as it’s all done and it’s made me so happy!! Xxx
Wow. Great video! Definitely going to try the shepherds pie with croquettes!! Yum
its soooo tasty with the croquettes on top.. highly recommend it :) xxx
Hi Kerry, like the idea of using potato croquettes on cottage pie. Will give that a go this week
The kids absolutely LOVED the meals done with the croquettes in top.. soooo delicious :) xxx
I think we'll all be trying it out, saving on peeling and mashing spuds 😊👌
Great video! Thanks a lot Kerry.
Loved this video. Have done the cottage pie with croquettes and will be putting it in the freezer. My question is do you defrost it in the fridge or on the side, and are the croquettes okay to be defrosted? Thank you.
I just leave mine on the side.. take it out in the morning and on the side and yb the time its dinner time, its nicely defrosted and ready to go straight into the oven :) xxx
You make it look so easy, but i do love the idea of the croquettes, x
isn't it great!!!! Honestly.. I find the thought of batch cooking stressful but the reality is actually rather nice and rewarding!!!xxx
Great video,very helpful 😊. Thanks for your time you put into making these for us .x
you are so welcome, Im really glad you enjoy my videos and thank you as always for watching :) xxx
Fantastic Kerry. Great meals as usual. Love love the Shepherd's pie. Thank you. 😍😍
so glad you enjoyed this.. ill make more soon I promise :) xxx
Loved this video so many meals from one sauce and so many ideas. LOVE the croquette hack too will definitely be trying these. Thank u ❤❤❤
Honestly.. the sauce is a winner.. always so tasty and always left over for a pasta sauce too :) xxx
Thank you, really enjoyed it. Lots of inspiration! 👍😁
So glad you enjoyed this :) Thank you for watching xxx
Wow... I simply love your videos... I might try out this meal prep... looks delicious and what a great idea to use one sauce to complement so many meals 😋
Also, I will try using croquettes instead of mashed potatoes. Thanks so much for sharing 😊
God bless you and your loved ones
Loved this Video! Great meals ,tips and ideas . Thank you
So glad you enjoyed it :) Thank you for watching xxx
Hi Kerry, loved the wonderful meal ideas I live alone but I do meal prep , thanks for sharing.♥️
So glad you enjoyed this and thank you so much for watching 🥰🥰
Loved this thank you Kerry x
Amazing stuff Kerry. Thank you 🩷
You are welcome 🥰🥰
I made the bean cottage pie the other day and we loved it! Not sure if you have tried it before but I always use grated emmental (President) on top instead of cheddar, it's sooo good and can be crispy! I'm French and that's we always use on top of Lasagna etc!
oooh yes I had totally forgotten about that cheese but we absolutely love it too.. ill be buying that again in my next shop :) xxx
I love your idea of adding the ricotta instead of white sauce. My tip is to use crème fraîche instead of white sauce. It saves on the washing up and everyone loves it!
Yes I love adding creme fraise too.. I think next time I’ll add half creme fraise and half ricotta 👌👌
This is great Kerry!
So glad you enjoyed this 🥰🥰🥰
Hi kerry i hope you are well .the food looks lovely as always. I really enjoy your videos.can I ask the food you prepare for fridge /freezer how long do you let cool before putting them in to your fridge/freezer also do you let the mince cool in pan before assembling the dishes .thank you .
I let it cook right down before adding it to the fridge or freezer so maybe around an hour and then the dishes are ready to go in :) xxx
Some brilliant ideas… I made your 3 bean pie the other week, loved it.
Isn’t it delicious.. it’s a weekly staple in our home these days :) xxx
Great video and ideas Kerry. More please! 😊
I will do more I promise :) xxx
Do more of these meal prep please. Super ideas!
Absolutely useful I can't wait to try the croquettes on top of the mince, That's a great game changer. I thought I was clever buying the ready mash potatoes 🤣
This will help me.
I do already use and freeze your tomato base sauce 😀 goes down a treat in my house 😋
I LOVE this! Super organized, my kitchen would look like a bomb had hit it if I had made this many meals simultaneously 😂 all looks super tasty, healthy and loved the croquettes hack - I am definitely stealing this idea. I hope you get your own cooking channel 👩🍳
You do need to be quite organised but I always tidy as I go along as it makes everything so much more manageable 🥰🥰
Would be great to see a meals of the week video incorporating all these meals and showing them all dished up.
I will do that for my next prep video for sure as yes I agree it would be good to see them dished up too :) xxx
You’re so likeable Kerry. Love the vids x
Aahh thank you :) that makes me so happy to hear 🥰🥰
This is great, thanks Kerry! 👍 Xx
Grate video, absolutely nailed it, thanking 🙌 you.
Thank you! Love this video! Do you keep them in the fridge or freezer plz once done? Thanks!! ❤
I really need to do this xx
You will thank yourself for doing it :) xxx
Great meals thanks for sharing. Yes they are good. Plus so time saving. X
So glad you enjoyed them :) prepping in advance is always a winner for me 🥰🥰
I ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ this video and would definitely welcome more. It might be nice to run through all the ingredients in the video as well too? But I can't wait to make the cottage pie and three bean pie
Im so glad you enjoyed this video.. I try to keep everything as succinct as possible so the video isn't 30 minutes long which is why I list all the ingredients in my description box.. but I also agree it would be helpful hearing them too :) xxx
Can I ask quick question can u cook the lasagne and cottage pie from frozen or do they have to be defrosted.keep up the great videos thank u
I’m pretty white you could cook them from frozen but I always take the meal out the freezer in the morning so by the evening it’s thawed out and ready to pop straight into the oven :) xxx
@@KerryWhelpdale thank you
Love a meal prep video x
Very smart concept! :D
Brilliant what great ideas for meal prepping. Xx
So glad you enjoyed it 🥰
I'm going to try the potatoe croquettes on top of cottage pie.
Great idea.👍
Isn’t it such a great idea.. and it taste amazing too 🥰🥰🥰
Enjoyed this 👏👏👏
So glad you did :) xxx
Great video! I love batching- be your future friend! ❤️
Absolutely future friend.. it makes life so much easier :) xxx
I do the same but use quorn and tofu instead. Loved the croquette idea. Thanks for sharing 👍
the croquettes work so so well and it cuts down cooking times by soooooo much :) xxx
Delicious and so nice to see you wearing Meghan's apron too
Oh is that who made this apron?? My friend gave it to me but I don’t know where she got it from :) xxx
Hi kerry how are you love the video meal prep is excellent idea great recipes too thank you.
So glad you enjoyed this.. can be a painful thought to do it, but it’s really not too bad at all and so worth it during the week :) xxx
@@KerryWhelpdale it is great ways to use that mince meat l love the different dishes it helps on busy days. So once you cook them you just re heat.? They wouldn't fit all in my freezer too small. 🙄
This is great!
So glad you enjoyed it :) xxx
Good morning Kerry, Great Video as always! (P.S. It's cro kays)xx
Hehehehe ooohhhh I’ve always said their name the way I’ve pronounced them in this video.. I’ve been wrong for all these years 😂😂😂
@@KerryWhelpdale I do it all the time - there's always something we can't pronounce. Definitely going to look at some of these meals xxx
I love your videos Kerry, but you would get slung out of our house serving that lasagne. 😂 I'm definitely a convert to the multi-use sauce though. I keep saying I'm going to do that but never get around to it. THIS is the week. Think I will pass on the croquettes though.
hahahaha its definitely a lot juicier with a white sauce, but the ricotta is sooooo quick and easy.. I add creme fraise to it too sometimes! xxx
Does using the ricotta cheese still keep it moist ...??
Why did you not use the pork in the meat sauce since it would add more flavor, and why not use the beef for the burgers?
Would be great to see the shopping list pls
I’ve added everything I’ve bought for each meal below in my description box 🥰🥰
