My biggest tip for meal planning is to make a Pinterest board of recipes you want to try (& only pin the ones you REALLY you like to eat) and then try to cook that meal at least twice to see if you like it! Then I make a weekly meal list on my notes or a calendar by looking at the Pinterest meals board and it helps me stick to a schedule so much!
On this same line my bf and I bought a couple binders and sheet protectors and printed out all the recipes we know we like and have started our own cookbook and it’s just separated by like “soup/ stews, meat, and vegan/ vegetarian”
As some else who is also in their 20’s trying to learn how to cook I love how far you’ve come and your recipes are so easy to follow! So proud of your progress ❤
My mom got married in her early twenty’s, and only new how to make pasta. My dad and her worked together and learned to cook everything that would eat when they would go out. My parents then raised my siblings and I to be chefs and bakers.
This is so inspiring for someone who says they hate cooking… like me 😀 I had a bad experience cooking a couple months ago. I spilt cornstarch everywhere, dropped my phone into raw meat, dropped butter into the stove flame, couldn’t find any seasoning or the right meat and I feel like I dropped cooking altogether. BUT THIS IS INSPIRATIONAL.🎉
As someone who could technically be your mom but more like a really older sister I was genuinely proud of you when you made that cake! I hope that doesn’t sound patronizing but I actually said out loud, “awww look at you! You did that!” 😂 go you! 👏🏻
I'm a person who loves cooking and got to learn it from young age on! So I'm super happy to see someone strive in it one bit at a time, you got this!! Lovely video Haley🤍
I’m exiting my twenties in a few years and I think this series is useful. It does show a lot of common experiences regarding what it’s like to navigate this part of your life; learning to have alone time, learning to build and value friendships, learning how to cook, building your interests. Good on you Ms. Hakey, not that it matters at all but I always watch your videos bc I think of you as a little sister anyway lol IM PROUD OF YOU ❤️
i’m so proud of you haley!! two tips when cooking/ eating : get organic maple syrup from the store or costco because it’s sooo much healthier and it tastes so much better!!! also don’t use metal (aka that fork!) on your amazing pans 😭😆❤️
The latte you’re having is called a breve latte if you were curious! A breve latte is when you substitute cream instead of whole milk! It’s traditionally done with half and half but hey creamer is creamer in my eyes! Looks delicious Haley ☺️
For avocado toast I like mixing a little toasted sesame oil in and then putting everything bagel seasoning on top. Its so yummy but I have more savory taste buds than sweet.
I love making a simple spaghetti bolognese, if you get a jar from the supermarket they have instructions and all you need is mince, pasta and your choice of veggies. It's easy for someone starting out cooking and a great building block for other recipes! I love your videos and your in my 20's series was amazing!!
You can cook broccoli at 400 degrees with some olive oil and sa!t and pepper for about 15-20 minutes while everything else cooks. I also highly recommend a rice cooker. Game changer. You start it first and its usually done by the time the rest is cooked.
Hello fresh really helped me figure out the timing when you're cooking multiple things!! They do such a good job of planning out the timing for you that I eventually learned how to do it myself for non hello fresh meals!
Just got my wife a Nespresso machine for her birthday a couple months ago, and the milk frother is legit. Instead of pouring your oat milk and creamer in the cup, you can put them in the frother together and you end up with a larger drink and it’s delicious. You can do hot and iced setting too!
So proud of you Haley, love you !that cake looks delicious and so does the tofu dish !! I also want to say don’t be discouraged if your food doesn’t come perfectly every time I’ve been cooking for years and I still fail at recipes a lot 😂
Hi Hailey! I just got married and we are both still in school!! I would suggest getting a crockpot! Basically you just throw stuff in and turn it on! It’s super quick and easy!
My go-to dinner is just throwing together a nourish bowl with some sort of carb as a base (rice, bulgur, couscous, sweet potatoes) which you can easily prep beforehand or buy in a microwave/instant pack, a protein source (tofu, tempeh, chickpeas) either in the pan or airfryer and meanwhile roast some veggies in the oven (my fave is broccoli, pumpkin or brussels sprouts), and lastly top it off with a nice dressing (I love mixing tahini/peanut butter + soy sauce) or half an avocado for those healthy fats👌🏼 simple but healthy and delicious and I never get tired of it :) just switch up the ingredients
hey haley glad to see you cooking you’ve come so far and maybe i was thinking you might want to look into a rice cooker there usually affordable and make cooking so much easier
Yes, it was a lot of Creamer to some people, but it’s way less calories than a Starbucks coffee or Dutch bros or whenever you go! I rack up like 400-500 calorie drinks when I go out, but my at home coffee is like 150!
When learning how to cook I like to look at yt videos rather than follow recipes because it’s nice to see how they chop and mix and consistencies and all that
I love seeing haley cook and try new recipes, I'd love to try cooking to and I really wanna try baking but I don't have resources, so seeing someone do it makes me happy! ❤
HALEY!! Thank you for posting this! I really enjoyed and got inspired by this one 😁 I am really into the healthy lifestyle and eating healthy is SO important!
i always had cooking shows on in the background when i was younger and i loved making the things i saw, definitely recommend. maybe in the background of reading or something
I always said I wasn't interested in cooking. Then I got married. Eating fast food and eating frozen food is so unhealthy and boring. I had to learn. I save youtube videos on a playlist and try new recipes all the time. My husband loves my cooking now hehe! So glad you are excited about it! It really can be fun.
I work at trader joes and you should try the spicy honey on your avocado toast! It was trending on tiktok a few months ago but I personally mix the honey in with my avocado mash instead of drizzling it on and it's a game changer :)
Haley, you can steam those dumplings easily with a pan and some water. Put the dumplings in the pan and put a lid over it with the fire on medium high. :) try it next time. :)
Hi Hayley! Just a tip for cooking teriyaki tofu.... after you deep-fried the tofu (coated with just an all-purpose flour), make a separate sauce for it BUT DO NOT MIX THEM TOGETHER. Mixing them will make the tofu soggy...and for me, you just wasted your time frying them. And, put toasted sesame seeds! That's all! Love from the Philippines ^___^
If you toast the bread ( low setting ) before dipping it in the custard mixture ( alton brown word use there ), it absorbs it better ( and in the episode he made french toast in - he left the bread out overnight ). he also put the mixture in the fridge overnight as well. look up on yotube - alton brown makes french toast. oh and uh ... proper way to eat soup dumplings? teeny bite at the bottom, drink the soup out through that little bite, then eat ( and yes I've learned that myself ).
ugh yes i love this! also the checked thing on your pan is called a cooking sheet and help reduce stickiness....honestly idk if you oil over it though! we're all still trying to figure things out
my husband puts grape jelly on his breakfast sandwiches as well, you are doing so well, cant wait to see what you start making next. Maybe a crock pot meal?
one way to make cooking/ baking less messy is take your garbage bin out and put it next to your work space for super easy disposal of any food packaging/scraps and if you compost, a bowl for anything compostable

y-youre here too...?
I love how fast paced your videos are! and Ryan is so sweet to applaud you when it tasted good 🥲🫢
Agree! 😂

I had the same proud feeling. Not in a patronizing way but in a way that I can relate to because I learned those things too when I was younger.

We need an in my 20s episode of “cooking with my mum” where your mum teaches you how to make one of your fave childhood meals!
That’s the problem bro there’s was no cooking in my childhood 😭🤣
Best thing to wake up to = a Haley video !!!!!
I love how ryan still loves and support haley even though she can’t cook
Love you haley+ryan

The cake looks so good Haley!! 🧡loved all the recipes
Haley i LOVE your videos once again:,) your personality just shines through how you edit and talk to us, and it makes me so happy to see!♥️
Wow - so proud of you; you've come so far! Love the editing too.
ALL THOSE MEASURING CUPS/SPOONS!!!! I remember at the begin of these videos when you said you had like one. so so proud. love you lots haley
i’m so proud of you haley!! two tips when cooking/ eating : get organic maple syrup from the store or costco because it’s sooo much healthier and it tastes so much better!!! also don’t use metal (aka that fork!) on your amazing pans 😭😆❤️

I love your videos and I'm so happy that you're cooking now. The growth
Yesss I love seeing you getting into cooking and being so happy about what you create!!
For avocado toast I like mixing a little toasted sesame oil in and then putting everything bagel seasoning on top. Its so yummy but I have more savory taste buds than sweet.
I love getting new recipes from TikTok, I personally think it's the best place to get them that isn't from some fancy recipe forum
I love making a simple spaghetti bolognese, if you get a jar from the supermarket they have instructions and all you need is mince, pasta and your choice of veggies. It's easy for someone starting out cooking and a great building block for other recipes! I love your videos and your in my 20's series was amazing!!
I gotta say I love the way you edit so quick and concise to watch ❤❤

lol the jam/jelly with a sausage biscuit combo is a classic southern hack!! nothing weird about it!!
Wow, I really love how Haley is eating for being healthy person. Wow, perfect.
I need to know where all of your dishes are from!! The flowers dumpling plate!! The bee cup!!! Everything!!! I am obsessed
Hello fresh really helped me figure out the timing when you're cooking multiple things!! They do such a good job of planning out the timing for you that I eventually learned how to do it myself for non hello fresh meals!
this gave me so much serotonin!! so proud that you're reaching goals with cooking :)
"fryer thingy" AHAHAH I immediately was like "the pan?" but honestly fryer thingy is much better. you are doing great haley ❤
Just got my wife a Nespresso machine for her birthday a couple months ago, and the milk frother is legit. Instead of pouring your oat milk and creamer in the cup, you can put them in the frother together and you end up with a larger drink and it’s delicious. You can do hot and iced setting too!

You're doing great! Nice to see you trying new things. One of the great things about cooking is getting to enjoy the yummy food at the end! 😋
I loved this video! Please do more like it! I am also someone who is learning how to cook and I am very excited to try tofu now!
I recommend making Paraguayan tortillas literally it’s flour milk egg cheese and whatever vegetables you want!!
I always said I wasn't interested in cooking. Then I got married. Eating fast food and eating frozen food is so unhealthy and boring. I had to learn. I save youtube videos on a playlist and try new recipes all the time. My husband loves my cooking now hehe! So glad you are excited about it! It really can be fun.

Hi Hayley! Just a tip for cooking teriyaki tofu.... after you deep-fried the tofu (coated with just an all-purpose flour), make a separate sauce for it BUT DO NOT MIX THEM TOGETHER. Mixing them will make the tofu soggy...and for me, you just wasted your time frying them. And, put toasted sesame seeds! That's all! Love from the Philippines ^___^
so proud of you haley!!
It’s amazing to see your growth in this area. I remember when you couldn’t cook at all, now look at you 😁🤍
If you toast the bread ( low setting ) before dipping it in the custard mixture ( alton brown word use there ), it absorbs it better ( and in the episode he made french toast in - he left the bread out overnight ).
he also put the mixture in the fridge overnight as well.
look up on yotube - alton brown makes french toast.
oh and uh ... proper way to eat soup dumplings? teeny bite at the bottom, drink the soup out through that little bite, then eat ( and yes I've learned that myself ).
Haley this is my favorite video ever !!!
Omg yesss honey on Avocado toast😍 you shld try with a sprinkle of chilli flakes & honey or hot honey! It’s so so good:) love your videos💕
ugh yes i love this! also the checked thing on your pan is called a cooking sheet and help reduce stickiness....honestly idk if you oil over it though! we're all still trying to figure things out
my husband puts grape jelly on his breakfast sandwiches as well, you are doing so well, cant wait to see what you start making next. Maybe a crock pot meal?
If you like spicy, I put red hot honey on my avocado toast and red pepper flakes and it is the best
one way to make cooking/ baking less messy is take your garbage bin out and put it next to your work space for super easy disposal of any food packaging/scraps and if you compost, a bowl for anything compostable
and of course starting with an empty sink and/or dishwasher for easy & quick cleanup afterword
this is such a fun video! i really love the inspiration. thank you!
The way she said "cheers" reminded me so much of Ryan!Sooo cute!😭
At 7:07
I love this vid! So cool to see you cooking and trying new things! Go Haley!
I love your videos so much you have no idea how I relate to you on a personal level
I found you from Ryan's channel. You're awesome ❤️
I love following this journey ❤yay Haley 👏🏼
Haley have you tried honey in 🍝 pasta or a smashed banana on toast with cinnamon with drizzled honey. It’s so good 😂
