@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I used to live off that instant kind when I was single, I never had eggs left in the fridge and instant was easy to keep in the cabinet. I'd get home from work make instant cornbread and instant potatoes and go hit the local bar with friends then hit McD's on the way home and start over the next day, and pig out on weekends at a buffet. That was 30 yrs ago, Now I have to cook for my wife and kids, they refuse to eat her cooking unless it's a pie or cake. Just made 5LBs of tacos an hour ago, be lucky if there's enough for 3 more left.
Thank-you for these! I am retired and am cooking for my wife and I. She cooked every day for the first 43 years of our marriage. Now, I have been watching your channel and have been cooking regularly for about 3 months now. She thinks I am a genius, but all I do is follow your videos and she is never disappointed in dinner! I deeply appreciate your easy to follow and delicious recipes.
Hi Mel. I love Hamburger Pie!!!! Sorry I have been MIA. Long story short. I finally found out why I couldn't walk. Was rushed to Tampa General Hospital for emergency spine surgery. I am now walking without the pain I was in before. I should be back on my feet before long. I love these recipes. Quick and easy.
I know I say this all the time but I look forward to Sunday nights before I go to bed so I can enjoy your videos. They are always one of my favorites. I'm not sure I mentioned on your last one but when I hear those dinner prayers, ohhh they melt my heart and remind me of the days when I had my Daddy and grandpa to pray. Touches my heart. I can't wait to try some of these recipes. I used to make a recipe with hamburger and onion cooked on the bottom layer, cream corn and cheese layered on the next one and then topped with jiffy. It was always so good. Thank you for the inspiration sweet friend!
My best kept secret for having green Bell pepper, and all the other colors, is to dice up the peppers and put them in zip lock bags. Toss the diced pepper into your freezer and always have that wonderful ingredient available on short notice. I do this with onions too. The really nice surprise is that the frozen vegetables are never crunchy in your recipe. If crunchy is what you want , use only fresh.
I love when the grocery store has these peppers on sale. I always stick up and freeze them. Cut for stuffed peppers, diced, or sliced. No matter how I'm going to use them I always have several bags in my freezer if fresh peppers, onions, tomatoes. Etc ..... ❤️🌹❤️
Mel, I'm not a very good cook but I love to make casserole dishes for supper. I started watching your videos a couple of months ago and just love everything I watch you fix. So far I've made one of your pasta bake dishes and really enjoyed it and from this video I made the chicken and cornbread casserole and my husband and I both liked it. The next thing I'm going to try is the sloppy joe cornbread bake and after that probably one of your chicken dishes. I retired about 2 1/2 years ago and before that my husband did most of the cooking during the week because he would get home 2 hours before me and start making something. I loved it because he would cook and I would clean up - - pretty good system. However, after I retired it became my job to cook full time, because he's still working, so I started cooking but as you know I quickly went through my normal recipes and was getting tired of repeating the same meals. I started turning to You Tube looking for new things to fix and low and behold I came upon your videos. What a game changer because you are constantly coming up with new ideas and not only that but I really enjoy watching you cook for your family and seeing y'all go on vacation and the adventures that your family has. Thank you for putting in the time and effort to share these recipes with all of us! You are making a difference and helping us out along the way. God Bless and Happy Cooking!! A devoted follower - - Donna Kettler
I love that story about your first grade teacher and that you love the recipe because it came from her that's very sweet. I'm gonna give this one a try this week thank you.
I’ve been stocked up w about a dozen boxes of Jiffy mix in my pantry. So now I’m set to make each one of your recipes here. They all look so good! I especially like how you show what else you serve the dish with to make a complete meal. I just wish there was a “Mel” @ my house to do the cooking for me!😊
I made your Sloppy Joe Cornbread Bake, it was sooooo good. My son and daughter in-law came up to the cottage for Mother’s Day and I made it for them. They loved it. So so good . Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Grew up with Jiffy cake mixes back to the 70s. When parents were out for the weekend night at friends for cards or church event, and there weren't other snacks left, I would make a chocolate cake from a single Jiffy box in a single round cake pan. Eat it warm, no frosting out of the oven. 😊😊
Thanks for sharing that sweet memory. Back in the 70s, I discovered Jiffy Mix as a college student, hundreds of miles from home. Those little cake mixes were perfect for baking up in the dorm kitchen, and sharing with roomie, and maybe a friend or two. Happy times.
@@childofgod3675 Eventually I couldn't find the jiffy mix pizza dough, nor the Ragu brand. I ended up learning to make my own pizza dough. A friend suggested using the Joy of Cooking pizza dough recipe. After I moved from Texas to Michigan, I had to use a styrofoam box, warmed up with corn or rice bags, to raise the dough. Picnic cooler works, too. In Texas, for most of the year, I could put the dough in the garage, on top of the washer or dryer, to rise. The sun did the rest.
@@childofgod3675 The great thing about making pizza is that it's essentially a flatbread, and you don't have to worry if it puffs up enough. So it's much easier than a loaf of bread to make.
When you asked which recipe we wanted to try in the next few weeks - admittedly I had to stop and think to order them for personal priority so my first choice was the Hush puppies ! Mostly because I’ve never tried to make them since I don’t have a deep fat fryer but you’ve given me the idea and courage to try them. I’m 67 years young and I’m an accomplished cook but I wanted to Thank You for your encouragement to try them. Can’t wait. I grew Jp with a Grandma who made ‘scalloped corn’, which is your corn pudding. I’m excited to try yours, too. Also the chicken & broccoli dish, and the 1st of the 7 where I’m gonna use black cleans plus chili beans (mrs. Grimes) Rotel plus the burger, of course.. that’s my plan. Not necessarily in that order but maybe . You know it’s all about what’s immediately available, who’s present for the meal and the time of day……
Omg! I was cleaning out my pantry when I decided to make cornbread muffins.i usually browse utube for something to listen to whenever I clean or cook and there you were with this video! I watched and discovered I had most of the ingredients for hamburger skillet pie! Oh my! So yummy! I used corn since I had no peppers but wow so good.such perfect timing I found you!
The hamburger pie reminds me of the tamale pie that was so popular back in the 1950s. I think it was on the back of the yellow corn meal box. My mom always made it and added a drained can of whole kernel corn and sliced black olives. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it... and I am now 72!!!!
My mom made that too! With the olives and corn too! She passed away 7 years ago and I haven’t thought about that recipe since I was in my 20’s. (I just turned 50, whoop whoop!) Thank you for the sweet and yummy memories, I’m going to add the ingredients to my next shopping list. God bless you all. My heart is full tonight….💜🙏🏼💕
I remember, when I worked at AC Nielsen in chicago, back in 1953, shopping at Krogers and buying JIFFY. it cost 10 cents for a box then. Odd the things a person finds themselves reflecting on. Your video is real timely for me. I've been hankering some Johnny cake. My family used to stew raisins and serve the hot raisin sauce over the Johnny cake. Greetings from upstate New York .
Hello Mel, those cornbread recipes bring back so many memories of the ones my mom made when I was kid growing up. All of us loved them. Yes, it is true comfort food. I will be making these. I hope your week is great. Sending blessings from the Tiny House in Texas. ❤😊
I love your semi-homemade approach! It's such a great match between convenience and home. I can't believe I've never used Jiffy before! I'm definitely grabbing a box or 2 next week!
Yeah I remember the folded over Jiffy mix. Girl, these are some delicious meals. Thank you for posting. We are a Jiffy mix family too and it's always in our pantry.
Just found your channel. I keep Jiffy for food storage, but I have to dip into it sometimes because I get a Jiffy craving! When I was a poor grad student with a toddler, we'd have Jiffy with honey and butter on top as a cheap dessert. To make chili stretch, I'd put it over cornbread. It must have been okay, the 'toddler' is a dad with his own toddler now. New sub.
Oh my goodness, all of these recipes look delicious! I love cornbread and Jiffy Mix. I think I will try the hamburger pie first. I make a hot dogs and baked beans casserole topped the same way that we really like, so the hamburger pie should be a hit, too. Thank you for another inspiring video. 😊
Yummy! My grandma used to make sloppy joe mixture, then top with grated cheddar, and then dollop with cornbread mix before cooking. It was always one of my favorites! ❤ Thanks for sharing.
I have a potluck coming up this Sunday! And I didn't know what to make, but now I'm pretty sure I'm making the sloppy joe bake! It'll go over really well! Thanks for reminding me how much I love jiffy muffin mix
Thank you Mel! I just made the chicken cornbread casserole, with my gluten free cornbread, and it was amazing! Will definitely be making more of these recipes ❤️
I love those old church ladies cookbooks. I have a few from my grandmothers' churches as well as different groups. Those are the tried and true recipes.
Mel, you mention snow days. But girl, you sound so southern . Love listening to you. You have a very soothing voice. And boy do we ever need that in todays world. . Thanks for some of the easiest n tasty recipes I have made watching you. ❤️👏👏👏
I love this! Thank you so much for sharing all of these great recipes! I can't wait to try them! I love Jiffy cornbread! I had no idea that you could do so much with it! It's 4:00 a.m. and I didn't eat a bite of anything yesterday and this video has made me so hungry! 😆 Guess what I am going to do in a few hours? Yep! Try out a couple of your recipes. Thanks again.
I have my eye on the cornbread with chicken and gravy mixture! All of the recipes look delicious, and I thank you so much for sharing them! Have a blessed week, Mel!
Hi Mel! I made the chicken and cornbread for dinner tonight. We both just loved it! Thanks again for sharing this delicious recipe. I’ll definitely be making it again!
Thanks so much! And that little MOPS cookbook has almost all of my favorites, the hamburger pie is in it! Thank you for watching and supporting me here!
everything and anything but the kitchen sink everything looks 😋 yummy I wish we had smellivision thank you for this video have a great day take care ya'll
Hey sweet Aunt Mel. Hope you're doing well this lovely Sunday evening. Asking you to please keep my brother in your prayers. He's going through a lot. Thank you in advance. Looking forward to tonight's video. Always enjoy getting meal inspiration from you and others. Have a wonderful evening and week. See you next video. Stay safe and healthy. God Bless.
Hello Mrs.Alma, I will be praying for your brother, love you sweetie & God bless. Sending continued prayers to you & your family. Love from Lula Mae & Family. 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕
I want to let you know that I had stopped cooking just ate frozen or fast food till I started watching you, you make it all look so easy I have made a few of what I seen you make and my son liked them so you are my earthly Angel I can't say thank you enough
These are all beautiful rustic dishes. Love your cast iron pans and beautiful baking dishes. Cornbread is a staple for, we Native American people. Your recipes are so beautiful. ❤❤
Ih what wonderful recipes, Mel! Great ideas, and great teaching to us! You make cooking sound relaxing, rather than the frantic panic I sometimes take to the kitchen. I especially can't wait to try the broccoli cornbread❣️
That Hamburger Pie looks delicious, thank you for sharing. And by the way, I love your attitude, you are so sweet & friendly, & humble too. I love all your recipes.
YUM TO ALL OF EM! Thank u once again Mel for sharing simple, inexpensive, yummy recipes. I can't decide which I'll try first but they all are money savers & that's just an awesome plus! The hush puppies are made similar to Matzo Balls - u get a thicker dough when u let them rest and the eggs work thru the dough. Thank u again for these wonderful staple dinners! Sending u love from snowy Michigan! 🙋♀️✋💝🍽🍲
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel They are delish! Here's the simple recipe: 2 Tbsp Olive Oil or Chicken Schmaltz, 2 eggs, 5oz Cracker meal or Matzo (I want to try crushing other yummy crackers) Seasoning & LET REST IN FRIG for 20 mins-1 hour then form balls & drop into hot broth. My brother is orthodox but I believe the whole book of Galatians talks about NOT combining orthodoxy & grace VERY CLEARLY. I love freedom & grace in the Spirit, & wouldn't dare think of improving to or adding to salvation by simple faith. Hope u love the recipe - u see, it's very similar to ur hushpuppies! 🙋♀️💞
Thank you for sharing these wonderful recipes ❤️ i enjoy watching your videos. Thank you neighbor us southern girls loves these easy and good dishes for our family. Much love to you.❤
Thank you for these recipies, I am always looking for new ideas since I don’t go out to eat , instead I cook which means always looking for different ideas
Like you, I'm in love with Jiffy mix. Thank you for all the recipes, can't wait to make the hushpuppies. The chicken mix with enchilada sauce sounds yummy too. !!!! Love that you're so down to earth!
Yum!! All look so good! You should try some cauliflower cornbread! Beware though, it’s super rich and not for those looking to lose weight 😂 just cook up 4 boxes of jiffy like normal, when it’s done, you break it all up in the pan with a fork. Add 1-2 sticks of butter (yup, here’s the richness lol) and mix up. Add steamed cauliflower, s&p and mix up again. Top with mozzarella cheese and bake until melted. It’s soooo good and creamy! Watch out, it’s addicting lol
I had to laugh when you talked about mixing in the large measuring cup and how you would have done it in a pretty bowl normally for camera. I mix in my large measuring cup all the time and didn’t even notice till you pointed it out! I love how you always keep it real. And love your recipes!
Hi mel.happy Sunday 😊 i liked them all yes you can do alot with a box of jiffy mix 😉 hope you have a wonderful week thank you ..😊 the hush puppy mix you can put corn and cheese in and add jalapeños if you like them i love them
Mel I will be reviewing the video again. Right now I can not decide what to make but my husband loves sloppy joes. All these look so good and use ingredients that I already have in my kitchen. I never made jiffy too much until I started watching your video. Hope you have a wonderful week. Thank you for creating this video.
Been watching your videos - love 'em. You have a natural talent and come across so sincere and sweet! And a great accent ! I'm a deep south girl from Looziana! Love how you say "Fancy" - it's a southern thing!
You make me drool with those Hush Puppies we would go to Cherokee for R&R the guys (Army days) would fish for trout and the Hush Puppies were cooked in the same oil. They were so good this brought back a very wonderful memory.
I buy the BIG box of Jiffy mix! As I'm watching you do these recipes, I thought how good my spicy chili would taste over that cornbread as a variation on the sloppy Joe mix. All of these recipes are enticing and I want to try them....and I bet that broccoli cornbread side would be really good with some leftover rotisserie chicken mixed in.. I'm subscribing so I can easily find you again!
Hi Mel! You have reminded me of my younger years and (my now adult) children’s favorite meals. Your meat pie recipe has been in my family for as long as I can remember. We just called it “beans and meat.” Also it has to be served with Mac and cheese! Such a great classic recipe! The only thing I do different is add a little Worcestershire sauce. I can’t wait to try the Tex-mex recipe. Thank you so much for sharing!
I dehydrate all my tomatoe skins and then use immersion blender to make it a powder. Use as a replacement for tomato paste or to thicken n boost flavor in soup n stews. Theres a ton of flavor in it !
We were deep-frying catfish, and using a pkg of Jiffy cornbread mix, i made hush puppies with finely chopped white onion and half a jalapeño with seeds and membranes removed before chopping. They were the best I'd ever made. Just fabulous!

Curious; do they still make the instant mix where you only need water? I haven't seen it in stores in years, only the one you need an egg for.
I've never seen it either
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel I used to live off that instant kind when I was single, I never had eggs left in the fridge and instant was easy to keep in the cabinet. I'd get home from work make instant cornbread and instant potatoes and go hit the local bar with friends then hit McD's on the way home and start over the next day, and pig out on weekends at a buffet. That was 30 yrs ago, Now I have to cook for my wife and kids, they refuse to eat her cooking unless it's a pie or cake.

You had me at, it was her mammaw's recipe who was my first grade teacher.
Yes and Amen!
Yes I remember the folded paper of jiffy mix. I also remember when they were only $0.15 cents! Oh my how old are we? LOL

Hey Mel, I love watching you cook! I’m trying the chicken casserole today and can’t wait to serve it to my family. Thank you for making these videos!
These meals look delicious Mel! I want to try every one of them! Funny thing - I just found 2 boxes of Jiffy mix in the back of my pantry yesterday! 🤗
Wow, how do I choose which one to make this week? They all look great. Thanks Mel!
I love watching you and it makes me feel good. all looks good
Thank YOU so much, you have brightened my day!
Oh yum I love hushpuppies! I'm definitely excited to have your recipe for this. Thank you so much Momma Mel!
I love church cookbooks!
Hey sweet Aunt Mel. Hope you're doing well this lovely Sunday evening. Asking you to please keep my brother in your prayers. He's going through a lot. Thank you in advance. Looking forward to tonight's video. Always enjoy getting meal inspiration from you and others. Have a wonderful evening and week. See you next video. Stay safe and healthy. God Bless.

@@debc7341 thank you, Deb. I truly appreciate that.
@@lulamaemcrae3032 thank you, Lula. We're continuing to pray for you and Oscar. Hope you're feeling a lot better today.
I enjoy a fast, easy and delicious comfort dinner now and then and all of these looked like something my family would love!
I want to let you know that I had stopped cooking just ate frozen or fast food till I started watching you, you make it all look so easy I have made a few of what I seen you make and my son liked them so you are my earthly Angel I can't say thank you enough
These are all beautiful rustic dishes. Love your cast iron pans and beautiful baking dishes. Cornbread is a staple for, we Native American people. Your recipes are so beautiful. ❤❤
Thank you so much for this beautiful and kind comment ❤️
I love your channel. Its a comfort to me and the recipes are delish.
Ih what wonderful recipes, Mel! Great ideas, and great teaching to us! You make cooking sound relaxing, rather than the frantic panic I sometimes take to the kitchen. I especially can't wait to try the broccoli cornbread❣️
Well, how sweet 😊 Thank you so much for watching
I just made a pour over corn bread dish and my Jiffy package was the older style wax paper folded down. Thanks for the videos.
That Hamburger Pie looks delicious, thank you for sharing. And by the way, I love your attitude, you are so sweet & friendly, & humble too. I love all your recipes.
Wow! Thanks for the tip on doing a screen shot on recipe! I did that immediately! 😊
YUM TO ALL OF EM! Thank u once again Mel for sharing simple, inexpensive, yummy recipes. I can't decide which I'll try first but they all are money savers & that's just an awesome plus! The hush puppies are made similar to Matzo Balls - u get a thicker dough when u let them rest and the eggs work thru the dough. Thank u again for these wonderful staple dinners! Sending u love from snowy Michigan!
🙋♀️✋💝🍽🍲
Awh, thanks so much for your sweet words of encouragement Sandy, I appreciate you! Hope you love these all and I need to try the Matzo Balls!
@@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel They are delish! Here's the simple recipe: 2 Tbsp Olive Oil or Chicken Schmaltz, 2 eggs, 5oz Cracker meal or Matzo (I want to try crushing other yummy crackers) Seasoning & LET REST IN FRIG for 20 mins-1 hour then form balls & drop into hot broth. My brother is orthodox but I believe the whole book of Galatians talks about NOT combining orthodoxy & grace VERY CLEARLY. I love freedom & grace in the Spirit, & wouldn't dare think of improving to or adding to salvation by simple faith.
Hope u love the recipe - u see, it's very similar to ur hushpuppies! 🙋♀️💞
Thank you for sharing these wonderful recipes ❤️ i enjoy watching your videos. Thank you neighbor us southern girls loves these easy and good dishes for our family. Much love to you.❤
So sweet about your teacher’s recipe!
Thank you for these recipies, I am always looking for new ideas since I don’t go out to eat , instead I cook which means always looking for different ideas
Like you, I'm in love with Jiffy mix. Thank you for all the recipes, can't wait to make the hushpuppies. The chicken mix with enchilada sauce sounds yummy too. !!!! Love that you're so down to earth!
Yum!! All look so good! You should try some cauliflower cornbread! Beware though, it’s super rich and not for those looking to lose weight 😂 just cook up 4 boxes of jiffy like normal, when it’s done, you break it all up in the pan with a fork. Add 1-2 sticks of butter (yup, here’s the richness lol) and mix up. Add steamed cauliflower, s&p and mix up again. Top with mozzarella cheese and bake until melted. It’s soooo good and creamy! Watch out, it’s addicting lol
I had to laugh when you talked about mixing in the large measuring cup and how you would have done it in a pretty bowl normally for camera. I mix in my large measuring cup all the time and didn’t even notice till you pointed it out! I love how you always keep it real. And love your recipes!
Hi mel.happy Sunday 😊 i liked them all yes you can do alot with a box of jiffy mix 😉 hope you have a wonderful week thank you ..😊 the hush puppy mix you can put corn and cheese in and add jalapeños if you like them i love them
I love them all. Most of the ingredients I have are in my food storage. Thank you for the recipes. I will be trying them out.
Wow! They all look soo good and easy!!! Thanks for sharing 👍
THANKS FOR SHARING THESE RECIPES, I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO ALL OF THEM
Mel
I will be reviewing the video again. Right now I can not decide what to make but my husband loves sloppy joes. All these look so good and use ingredients that I already have in my kitchen. I never made jiffy too much until I started watching your video. Hope you have a wonderful week. Thank you for creating this video.
The recipe with the beans would be great with ranch beans 🫘 😋 can't wait to try some of these recipes ❤
Been watching your videos - love 'em. You have a natural talent and come across so sincere and sweet! And a great accent !
I'm a deep south girl from Looziana! Love how you say "Fancy" - it's a southern thing!
I love jiffy, I will be making a couple of them. Along with the hush puppies. God bless. Thanks for all you do.
Hope you enjoy them all, have a great week and thanks so much for watching!
i loved them all, the first one and the broccoli cornbread sounded yummy.
I cooked a pot of chili beans and topped with Jiffy. Everyone loved it
You make me drool with those Hush Puppies we would go to Cherokee for R&R the guys (Army days) would fish for trout and the Hush Puppies were cooked in the same oil. They were so good this brought back a very wonderful memory.
I am really excited that I found your channel. Love me some jiffy cornbread. Can't wait to try the hushpuppy recipe.
Ive been looking for a channel like yours oh my word Im Sooooooo excited Thankyou im spreading this your a gift missy ...... thank you 🎉❤
Oh my I want to try many of these recipes. I appreciate Mel that you offer ways to change up the dishes...Mrs.Steve
I buy the BIG box of Jiffy mix! As I'm watching you do these recipes, I thought how good my spicy chili would taste over that cornbread as a variation on the sloppy Joe mix. All of these recipes are enticing and I want to try them....and I bet that broccoli cornbread side would be really good with some leftover rotisserie chicken mixed in.. I'm subscribing so I can easily find you again!
Thank u that's something I will try I do a lot of crockpot dinner for my friends and family again thanks for the ideas 🙏 ❤️ a friend
Hi Mel! You have reminded me of my younger years and (my now adult) children’s favorite meals. Your meat pie recipe has been in my family for as long as I can remember. We just called it “beans and meat.” Also it has to be served with Mac and cheese! Such a great classic recipe! The only thing I do different is add a little Worcestershire sauce. I can’t wait to try the Tex-mex recipe. Thank you so much for sharing!
Everything looked delicious Mel! Have a great week!
Thanks friend! I appreciate you and hope you have a great week too!
Thank you 😊
I’m a huge Jiffy fan to. I cannot wait to try these.
I made this for my family then they were growing up. It was always a winner.
I have got to stop watching these recipes at night! 😫🤤 Will definitely be trying these!
These are all such great recipes! Thank for sharing. I absolutely love cornbread.
This is looking good I will have to try all them This is the first time see you glad I found you .Thanks for sharing with us God Bless you
Just found you and had to subscribe! Love me some recipes that are meant for tweaking, and I could listen to that southern charm all day.😊
Awh, honey you're too sweet 😊 Welcome and hope you find lots of good food and fun here, thanks so much for watching
I stumbled upon this recipe and now I cant wait to try it ❤ Thx for sharing!
I dehydrate all my tomatoe skins and then use immersion blender to make it a powder. Use as a replacement for tomato paste or to thicken n boost flavor in soup n stews. Theres a ton of flavor in it !
Great idea!!!
Omg!! Lady I'm gonna make all of these!! They look delicious!!. Thank you 😊
I am so excited to try all of these. I'm like you, in tha I just live jiffy cornbread recipes! Thanks for sharing these!
All of the recipes looked scrumptious😋😋😋, and can't wait to try them out... thanks for sharing 💕💕
I thought I was the only one who put minced onion in hush puppies !!! They aren't hushpuppies without the onion 👍👍
We were deep-frying catfish, and using a pkg of Jiffy cornbread mix, i made hush puppies with finely chopped white onion and half a jalapeño with seeds and membranes removed before chopping. They were the best I'd ever made. Just fabulous!
@@judithjanes5738 I love jalapeños! It's also great in pimento cheese👍
I agree. Onions are a must.
I do enjoy all your videos and love when you cook them take care
