    Bless your heart for having to defend the pans. Anyone who cooks and bakes regularly can tell that its age on the tin, not food! These are all great ideas, thank you for the video!

    Honey, the type of person complaining about a clean but well used muffin tin, needs to face reality. When a person cooks all the time, pots and pans show the wear. Not everyone wants to spend every last cent they have embracing a throwaway mentality.

      So true!

      The baking pans and tins only get better the more you use them. Seriously something wrong with some folks & their need to pick at others.

      Use it up, wear it out. Make with do or do without! (I think that's the saying my mom says) ❤

    The fact that you used Duke's in your spinach and artichoke appetizer makes you one of my favorite people 💚

    Thank you for these.
    Some of my baking pans are over 60 years old. I appreciate that you are using your pans until they can’t be used anymore. It makes a lot more sense than using disposable pans. You are young, but you have wonderfully old fashioned ideas about practicality. Also, I’m going to try those meatballs with this method. :)

    Not the "having to defend your pans" comment!! 😂 I'm trying each one of these recipes! Thank you for being so kind!

  • @whoooami2090
    @whoooami2090 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I have to admit, I’ve watched many appetizer videos that were just thrown together and didn’t seem like they would have a great taste. Your appetizers not only look great but seem like they would taste scrumptious as well.

  • @lisagrafton2529
    @lisagrafton2529 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I would love to eat every appetizer you made! They look and sound delicious! Then I'd top it off with the cheesecake!!! My family made something similar, but we use vanilla wafers as the crust! Just put a vanilla wafer in the bottom of a cupcake liner, and proceed with the cheesecake layer!!

  • @donnacarr3782
    @donnacarr3782 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    @hairdebi ปีที่แล้ว +17

    A muffin pan like a cookie sheet need to be seasoned in order to cook evenly, yours still looks brand new. Mine are almost black they’ve been seasoned for over Thirty years, I wouldn’t trade them for a brand new shiny set.

    I just found this video today as I’m looking for some appetizer recipes. I have to tell you that your southern accent is adorable. All the appetizers look delicious and you had great presentation. Can’t wait to try your recipes and watch more of your videos. Thanks 😊

  • @peskycitizen7582
    @peskycitizen7582 ปีที่แล้ว +30

    I’ve made the mini cheesecakes but used a Nabisco Nilla wafer (or any vanilla wafer brand) as the base. Works great and saves time and tastes great.

    • @caroleezekiel6000
      @caroleezekiel6000 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I have too. Instead of making a strawberry sauce, I used cherry pie filling, or you could use any flavor pie filling.

    Thank you for the tip for the meatballs. I always put in my crockpot. I make homemade meatballs, chili sauce and grape jelly. I'm not a fan of cranberry, but I love sweet baby Ray's, sweet and spicy sauce 😊.

  • @cheryllilley5115
    @cheryllilley5115 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I am going to try ALL of these for our Superbowl party! It's only my husband and I at our party but I always make a "grazing" appetizer spread for us and these fit the bill perfectly! Also, Love your videos so much, you are one of my favorites, Kristin! Would love to see your charcuterie boards you make!

    That cheeseball... my tastebuds say yum 😋 but my gut says don't even think about it 😩 (I don't digest dairy very well). Those mini cheesecakes look like they came out of a bakery!

  • @Erica_O_No
    @Erica_O_No ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I started adding chopped up shrimp steamed with either old bay or tony chacheres to my spinach artichoke dip, it’s a winner. I love the idea of making the wonton cups! These are all great ideas, living in Alabama, they are all right up my alley!
