Surviving a RAINY DAY in a Tiny OFF-GRID Kitchen - Large Family Meal Prep
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ส.ค. 2024
- It’s a rainy day on our off-grid desert homestead so we thought it would be fun for us to spend the day together in our tiny Airstream kitchen. We’ll prep food for the week and talk about what we love and what we hate about our tiny kitchen, as well as share our dreams for our not so tiny kitchen in our future family home.

LADY I WISH I HAD 1/10 OF YOUR ENERGY. I'M 67 AND HAVE 2 YOUNGER SISTERS. ONE OF THEM IS JUST LIKE YOU, SHE WAKES UP IN THE MORNING AND STARTS WORKING. SHE WORKS ALL DAY AND THEN SHE TAKES A SHOWER AND GOES TO BED. RINSE AND REPEAT AD INFINITUM. I HAVE ALWAYS ADMIRED HER AND I ADMIRE YOU. YOU BOTH ARE SUPERWOMEN. I ALSO LOVE YOUR STORIES AND ALL YOUR VIDEOS.
My Mom used to be that way before she had heart problems; But she still helps my sister garden, feed her animals, and watch the great grand babies!
It will be fun
It's not about strength it's about being focused when it comes to earth bags projects. I use single piece bags but I want these, have no idea where to get them.

Amen 🙏
I'm the grandma in a recently established multigenerational home of 9. Food prep has been a bit of a challenge but this video is very inspiring and gives me confidence that there are things we can do to make it easier. Enjoy watching your family work and have fun together.
good morning the family. it's 07H30, north of Lille, France. As French farmers protest on the highways about the lack of protection of their worth in the community, low prices and governmental restrictions, how refreshing it is to find myself in your tiny kitchen with a truly Shiny and Talented family. Over the years, that i've watched your channel, I've come to appreciate the hard work it is to feed a family of six in your tiny space. and yet, you all do it with kindness and love. Enjoy these moments of 'floured' chaos and 'buttery smiles,' because one day, you all will be in the big kitchen, in the new house and not with your kids, but your grandkids, laughing with white flour floating in air. many thanks for the vidéo.
Dang it getting me all emotional this morning 🥺
Great video! I love watching the boys cook together, that's a very important life skill that a lot of men don't have. It's wonderful to watch your family work together and build your dreams as a family
Thanks! At 78 I won't be homesteading but thoroughly enjoy watching you and your family.....your goats, your dogs, your chickens and the way you all work together and respect one another.
Thank you so much Patricia! This is really going to come in handy as we're ordering supplies for the next part of the house build. We appreciate this so much. Hope you have a great weekend!
Usally I skip videos about cooking, but this was adorable!
Comparison is the thief of joy. You are all doing amazing work on your homestead as well as inspiring a generation of humans and some dogs too, my chihuahuas come running the moment they hear your voices and they sit and watch every minute just waiting for the animal antics. Never be hard on yourself you are amazing people.
Wonderful and inspiring video! One word of caution - boys, please don't plug the mixer in until the beaters are in place. Love, somebody's mom...
This woman cant turn her hands to anything! My hero 😮😊❤
You are a homestead!! You don’t need to have beef cows right now to be completely self sustainable. You choose to eat ground beef and steak to keep some healthy red meat in your diet. You will get there. Someday you’ll raise a beef cow and maybe a milk cow. You all seem to love goats milk & cheese though, so maybe not. Probably will depend on the price of feed. You are an absolutely amazing woman and someone people aspire to emulate!! You’re so good at everything you do & try! I’m constantly in awe of you!! Besides, all these things will be easier in a house. You could make pasta for 4 or 6 meals at once. Same with all the others, but rice. What was the other thing you use half of instead of flour in your bread? I couldn’t catch it to Google it. Tons of love from Oregon for the whole amazing family!! ♥️ Jess
Kamut :)
I have been pre-cooking meat and putting it in vacuum sealed bags, date them and putting it into the freezer for several years now. It’s great to save prep time and cleanup. I also wash and reuse freezer and vacuum sealer bags.
You guys rock at homesteading! There are so many different aspects and levels of homesteading. You can't compare one to another as each family are in different stages and have different needs. You all are building your freakin house from literally the ground up. 😃 All the while making videos to share with us and taking care of your homestead and family. Never doubt yourselves, you are amazing! 🥰
it's great to see a family having fun together . don't see that enough these days .
I found your channel yesterday and I'm already on my fourth video (including the 2.5 hour goat shed video). I'm in West Africa and trying to grow as much of my own food as possible and failing badly. 😂 But I realised recently that I eat SOMETHING from my garden every day and I make all of my meals from scratch including making my own sauces like mayonnaise and ketchup etc. So my successes are small but there's progress. I can't even begin to compare myself to you. Yesterday I watched you put the shade on the goat shed and it inspired me to finally get around to making a little rain cover for our water pump. The cover is about two feet square and I feel like you probably did after completing your shed. Every little achievement is worth celebrating and you've achieved a LOT!! 🎉❤
One of my favorite memories of my sister is of us making noodles. We would surprise my mom with them when she got home from work. Momma loved that. It meant she wouldn't have to cook. My sister was 9 years older than me. My earliest memory of this I had not started school yet, so I was 4 or younger.
I have since started making flavored noodles to go with chicken or turkey. I put a bit of sage in it.
I would love to come make noodles with you, Ashley!
I'm sure your family realizes how very blessed they are to have you as wife and mom! Your love of cooking is amazing, especially in a tiny kitchen cooking for so many people! Don't even know how you managed for the group in the workshop! Home baked bread every day and noodles from scratch...would you adopt me?😂 And yes, I agree with another viewer that teaching the boys to cook is super important. My husband was a far better cook than I was. You all are truly amazing! So glad I get to see all that you are doing!❤
*So* agree, we are all on a journey and need to celebrate what we accomplish and just keep stepping towards our own goals.
Judging ourselves or others are destructive energies.
🎉 😊 ❤ this comment
I love the fact that you made everything else, including bread and homemade noodles with limited mess and the guys come in and loving havoc ❤. Seriously, we moved to our off-grid raw land in 2021 and having a functioning kitchen is key, size doesn't matter nearly as much as function. Thank you for this reminder and sharing.
Ohhhh, I'm sensing at some point there is going to be a Tiny Shiny Outdoor Kitchen. You could make it to where solar panels are on the roof so you can even use it in rainy weather. You can do a "fogon" style stove. Easy peasy (well, compared to the house build). Put it near one of your rain collections where you can do dishes and get water for cooking.
That is a beautiful loaf of bread! I could almost smell it; brought back wonderful memories of time spent at my grandmother’s when I was a child.❤❤
Quick note, Kinder Buttery Steakhouse, I use that on every kind of meat. The more, the better!! Salmon, chicken, steak, burgers, pork. It has all things in it you would use anyway.
I’ll watch the rest later💖
I was sorry to see this video end! It is delightful to see your family have so much fun together. Thanks for sharing your cooking adventures with us.
You could make your own countertops with resin and wood. That would be gorgeous
This might have been mentioned already but another good use for your instant pot is hard cooking eggs. You can put as many eggs as you want in the pot with the trivet on the bottom. Add about half a cup of water. Set the pot on the regular setting for 4 to 6 min and start. When temp is reached, cool pot for equal time. Open the steam vent and remove the eggs to ice water. Sometimes I peel for storage and sometimes I don’t peel. Either way, they’re perfect. Love watching your progress on the house. 😊
Right?!?! I will never go back to hard boiling eggs any other way. The shells practically slip right off.
I did not know that you can hard boil eggs in an instapot! Thank you.🫖🥣🐈⬛📚🧘♀️✨️🖖
At this time you are home builders with some animals and small gardens. You are right to acknowledge that each homestead is unique in it's journey of many destinations. You and your family have been a great inspiration. TY for sharing.
You could make your own countertops with resin and wood. That would be gorgeous!
Damn girl .... What can't you do? Pasta Party .... heck yeah
In Italy, the women of the household would spend a day together making pasta, all sorts. A light lunch, plenty of coffee, with a slow cook meal in the oven for when the whole family got home. And on that note, it's time for me to clean my kitchen!😊
Love watching you cook Ashley, you make it look so easy!
I totally admire you all. Ashley, you are a wonder woman, and a great mom. To watch everybody used tools outside and inside like it’s nobody’s difference. I absolutely love it. Keep up the good work and forever will be watching.
Love these "down to earth" days where you show us the fun and how much you love each other! This type of day is so much fun to watch!! Thank you TSH!! 🥰🥰
I appreciate how honest you all are about your feelings and where you think you should be vs where you are, and how you seem to always look at the big picture!
Noooo Dont ever feel as a Failure.Because you dont process your own meat or buy a half cow at a time. Yall are building your life your way .Thats the beauty and love right there.your way !thank u for bringing us all along. I love it
Wonderful ideas. What a time saver..
One day at a time you guys! You will get where you want to be. Look how much things have changed over the past couple years. And one of them is what wonderful young adults you have in your home. Your children your are wonderful. 🎉❤
excellent cooking video and especially the boys baking this one pan huge biggggy.....cookie cake slathered with chocolate icing. awesome choice dinner fillers Ashley and making it all look so DELICIOUSLY DELIGHTFUL........to top it all off that wonderful sound of everyone giggling laughing, just having fun love it. Cheers guys gonna make me a cookie cake too. hungry
You’re not a failure at all. Look at what you have accomplished ❤
It’s Kinders with short A.
I saw your Mono Lake sticker…my dad was the Judge that heard the case against Los Angeles County draining it. He was passionate about saving Mono Lake. He lived in Lake Tahoe at the time. He’s gone now but I’m so proud he had a huge hand in saving Mono Lake.
So talented in every aspect of hands on . Whether it’s building or cooking or handling the animals or computer tasks. My hat goes off to you all❤
I just love your early morning light. So magical.
I absolutely love your channel
I hate cooking but watching this made me think, take one day cook everything and put into jars 🎉
Mind blowing ❤
I remember the days of living in a 5th wheel with 3 kids 2 dogs and a bunch of cats. Those were quite challenging times. U guys r doing great!!
I watched this again and I think I loved watching 2nd time better than first. It amazes me how easy you make it look to make bread and noodles. Thank you as always for the inspiration.
You have such a beautiful family. I love that you all have fun together ❤ Bon appétit
Ashley, you are a wonderful cook! You'll have that covered when you can grow your own food. You raise chickens and pigs! That's a lot! That's all the meat we have ever raised except we raised turkeys a few times. Beautiful bread! Yum, noodle making parties! The noodles look wonderful Ashley. I loved the "Count" counting Jonathan. Watching the boys make the cookie was hilarious but it looks delicious! The meats and rice prep looked simple and delicious. You feed you family well! Thanks for this video Longnecker family!
I`m always amazed watching your content .. you all work so hard as a family .. Love and Laughter aplenty and you raised amazing children along the way !! ❤
Good gravy, you folk are amazing!! Give yourself grace Ashley, you do SO MUCH !! It's always a joy to spend a little time with you folks and your love for one another gives me hope for our future!
That was fun. My favourite part was 'Dog behind bars' cameo. 😁
my favorite summer recipe it is so easy if everything is in the freezer: THREE FRUIT SHERBET
Ingredients:
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 ripe banana, cut in pieces
1/2 can (6 oz.) frozen orange juice concentrate, slightly thawed
Ingredients:
1 (13 1/2 oz.) bag/can frozen pineapple chunks, broken in pieces
Recipe instructions: Put all ingredients into blender container; blend just till combined. Spoon into freezer tray/container. Freeze till firm.
Have you guys ventured into pressure canning? You can set up a propane burner outside with a pressure pot and can loads of ground beef that is shelf stable. I started canning 4 years ago and have grown to really enjoy the process and the convenience of having meals ready on the shelf.
Nowhere to store anything yet.
@@TinyShinyHome your roundhouse will fill so many of your “needs” 🙏🏻 Praying for your family- I Love watching your journey ❤️
Your family is so amazing. Love watching all your videos. You're so down to earth. Wishing you all the best.
Loved the family ‘s laughter!! 🧡🧡🧡🧡
What a fun video to watch! Meal prep can be such a challenge, but so worth it during the week! I love that you make your bread from scratch and pasta as well -- my grandma taught me to do both on her woodburning stove. Watching the boys bake the cookie was both sweet and entertaining. Thanks for sharing!
In an effort to be more awesome I’ve been trying to fit more baking into my life.
Your bread method makes total sense to me. I’ve only ever kneaded my dough and made the bread the same day. Your method seems like it’d fit into a busy daily schedule much easier.
I started two batches today, one using whole wheat and the other all purpose to see which one turns out tastier.
I’m excited to get them rolled up and in the oven tomorrow once I’m up from my leisurely weekly lay-in.
Many thanks
Hope the rain doesn’t have you going too stir crazy ❤
let me know how the whole wheat goes. haven't tried that yet
@@TinyShinyHome The whole wheat did not turn out great. Very dense. I’ve been having the best luck with all purpose.
I sent the recipe along with measuring cups to my mum in the UK as her arthritis is making it hard for her to make her own bread these days. The no kneading in this recipe is perfect. I’m not sure they have the same kind of flour over there though as hers turned out super dense too.
P.S I very much enjoyed the juxtaposition of your calming confidence in the tiny shiny kitchen and the boy’s cookie chaos
What a wonderful way to spend a rainy day. 💕
Ashley, I had to smile when you talked about why you´d waited to get an instant pot - I did exactly the same thing! I just got one recently - it may eliminate my trusty crockpot, too, since it also has that capability (jury is still out on that one...). The chaos of guys let loose in the kitchen is hilarious!🤣
Enjoyed the recap and the cooking. Ashley I will celebrate with you the day you move into the new house and have a big, big fridge. I, before the Earth quake had a big 424 sq metre house I designed and I had 2 big fridges, positioned together with the handles in the middle. Looked like one humongous fridge. It was heaven, in a pantry the size of a car. Oh those were the days, a family of 7. 🇳🇿
Ever make cannelloni? Cut the pasta into small sheets, half-cook until almost al
dente. Blot excess water off and roll around filling; film bottom of baking dish with tomato sauce, place rolls, cover with more sauce, and cheese, and bake until cheese melts and sauce bubbles. Seems like a lot of work, but worth it.
Ashley, have you ever watched Pasta Grannies on TH-cam? I think you’d love it and get a lot of great ideas.
Wow can’t get enough of your amazing family.I know you have a cook book.But how did you learn so much about cooking. Ashley. I am so jealous.everything you do with so little on hand .Thank you so much for your videos.We learn something new every day from your family.Ed from Michigan
You gotta love to cook when you do you can come up with all kinds of recipes.
Wow what a video! Y’all make me emotional for what’s to come of our homestead
Good morning little late today I hope you're all having a great day and a beautiful day out there see you all later
Ashley is a rockstar artist. Nice
Cooked fruit, soaked oats/porridge in jars in the fridge yes. Meat 😮 what a brilliant idea to put the cooked meat into jars today I was years old and learnt a new idea.
Thanks TSH
White rice has arsenic. One way to decrease or, is to rinse rice before cooking. Boil it until Almost done, then rinse it and throw away the pot water, then proceed to cook your rice in whatever way needed for your recipe.
Haha that was the best watchin the family make cookies. And when you said everyone watching on here knows what that (powdered sugar) says I laughed because it looked like my handwriting.
Your family is adorable! Love watching y’all! 😊
I love that you have a passion for cooking. Your a woman of all trades. What a blessing. The bread looks so yummy You guys are hilarious!😂 Fun viedo!
The cookie making was hilarious! 🤣 Try putting the chocolate chips in last and mix by hand after everything else has been mixed. Mixing those with the beater makes it harder than necessary... but hey, they had fun doing it. 😂 Fun video.
This was one of my favorites. I could almost smell the bread. You could easily start another channel; Tiny Shiny Homestead Cooking. Please share more recipes. It would be a good home for your recipe cookbook.
I can just about mom sits and chuckles as kids and dad figures out her instructions. Loved that and figured mom must be filming it. I like yalls videos.
Great job to ALL in the kitchen! ❤ loved the guys making the cookie!😂
❤👏😍🌈 So much fun! I love how you all interact and the silliness and fun you have💚😂💛 I am now very hungry😝😝
How was the cookie? As usual, you improvised and had such a jolly good time! Good break from bagging! ❤️
It was way too sweet even though we put less sugar in than the recipe called for 😂
Thank you for sharing, that was very entertaining and funny 😆
The guys making cookies had me laughing so hard!😂 They are so cute!
I LOVE these glimpses into your tiny living ... and especially your cooking You are a fantasti cook, Ashley and I'm jealous :) I'm in a nursing home and I wish I could cook, so i live vicariously through you all :) God bless you !!!
Homemade noodles are the best. Great video. Jax shows the most potential for making cookies.
This episode was such a nice treat from the building. I love watching your channel. Such an escape from the grind of politics and the fast life. Thanks so much. I have a good family brownie recipe that you’d like. With hersheys for the cake part. And morsels for the icing .
I absolutely love this video. I am new to you all and I am enjoying every video I have seen so far. The ending of the video with the boys baking absolutely warmed my heart. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us all
Thanks and welcome!
Everything takes time!
Thank you all for sharing yourselves with us.
You made great use of a rainy day when you couldn't work on the house! I love that you were prepared to get all of that cooking done. Hilarious to see the guys making cookies - I can't believe none of them realized that a mixer was not the best first option, and they kept using it!
Loved watching you make your noodles. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and your family with us!
Ashley your doing amazing building your future as a family it's slow going but your getting closer to your family's dream x you are all amazing
You guys are fun to watch. I also taught my two boys and daughter how to cook. My sons wife’s thank me.
I never knew cookie making could be so much fun?! Way to go guys……👏🏻👏🏻🍪
You have a lot of land.. you can make mud fridges or underground fridge+pantry in future. 😊
Thank you for letting us into your kitchen and your lives. This was fun and relaxing to just hang out on a rainy day with your fam!❤😊
Letting the bread rise a full day is a good idea. I'm going to start doing that. Thanks.
Homemade noodles and bread.. oh my yes please. Sending ❤to you all.
I really enjoyed this video! More rainy days like this! :) 🙌🏽🙏🏽
Thanks for having the guys bake. That was entertaining to watch :)
Maybe if you use metal net baskets in the fridge you can pull the whole basket out and put it back in fast.
I love the Godfather music for the noodle making!! 💗 21:07
Great video, thank you 🧡💛🧡
The boys are so funny. Your so good at raising your kids . So much love . Mom n Dad you need to right a book on your life's. And on how to be successful Parents. I know it just comes Natural to you. Thank you for sharing a little of your life's with us. 🫡 great job family.
Thank you for sharing your family and story 🙏😊💞
What a beautiful episode & welcome into your kitchen magic & what's achievable in it 😍 with all your funny family antics.
Thanks guys 🙏
I feel called out about eating hot bread 😂 never can wait
This may have been my favorite video!
Enjoy the building process. I have in the past and always felt good at the "end" of each journey.
