This may sound dumb, but among your many positive qualities is the fact that you put your hair up when you’re cooking! I can’t believe how many of these TV chefs have their hair flying everywhere. Yuck!
Yes so true . Makes me crazy how there hair is in their faces. 😝
I feel this so deeply 😂
Or hanging over the food😖
I agree! When I was young I was a waitress. Back then we were required to wear hair nets. Anyone cooking was also required to wear them.
I always put my hair up, and hair still ends up in the food sometimes (yuck) but how do people who wear their hair down not have so much hair in the food.
Darling I watched again because you are so sweet.
I hope everyone knows how hard you worked for them. Everything sounds very scrumptious. Blessings to you sweetheart.
You are a doll. I have shared your station with my aunt and sister in law. I pray that your dog seizures are manageable with medicine ❣️
I learned from my mom to plate greasy appetizers, like the bacon wrapped dates, on a bed of shredded lettuce (well dried of course). Not only absorbs the oil, but looks more colorful too. Hope your pup is feeling better. Bless.
Actually, we’re here for it all; the good, the bad, and the emotional. I hope your precious little dog gets his seizures under control. 🤗💞
I hope the family Thanksgiving was wonderful! 🦃
I am so incredibly sorry that you have to go through your dog having seizures, I know how emotionally draining it can be and how worrisome you can get. My yellow lab who is almost 13 years old has been having seizures since early august, and the vet has prepared us that these could be the final weeks with him as she suspects he has a brain tumor. I am 17 years old and I have always taken for granted having my dog (duke) for almost my whole life, and I know how much a dog can mean to someone, best of wishes to you and your family and those appetizers looked amazing!
If you use your knife to scrape ingredients off of the cutting board, use the backside of the knife if you don't have a bench scraper. :}
Awww Becky, I'm so sorry about your sweet baby. I hope he/she is doing much better now. My Maggie just passed away last Thursday. My heart is broken so I know what you're going through. When they're sick we just want to fix them asap - they don't understand what's happening to them. Your recipes look delicious and I can't wait to try them all. Hugs and blessings! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!
Becky i am addicted to your videos.
Some alternatives to alcohol for deglazing a pan if you still want to get some concentrated flavor: a little good quality vinegar and a bit of water, or chicken stock, or (depending on the recipe) a little watered down fruit juice - apple, grape, cranberry, lemon or lime.
Thank you for this! I always see you videos pop up in my recommended feed, and now I'm subscribed! I love cooking this way - no fuss but all whole ingredients (with some exceptions like the cream cheese of course lol). It's just so nice to see a home cook make delicious dishes without using a ton of boxed, process ingredients or being all hoity toity with exclusive ingredients. I went ahead and actually bought the "real salt" you talked about! I'm really excited to use it and actually bought a few extra ones as xmas gifts for my family! What a great gift for anyone who eats! lol
Don't ever apologize for talking about your bad day or feelings, talking about it helps you. Your subscribers if they are real people will understand and if they don't it's a them problem. Good thoughts for your dog and you. :)
I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
Going to try some of these appetizers. Thank you for sharing and praying for your fur baby to get better 🙏🏼❤️
You have such energy, wow! Thank you for these appetizer ideas. I am making your cranberry salsa this week. So pretty and looks like the holidays! Blessings to you and your family. Your videos are full of clever ideas...thank you.
Hi Becky , I freeze my mozzarella cheese then grate it , it’s much easier .. I also spray my grater also , with Pam spray before I grate my cheese , it doesn’t stick to the grater … thank you for these recipes I will be making them ..
I also like ur hair pinned up , I always wear it up when I’m cooking or baking .. thanks again !! 🌹
Ah i just assumed 360 being the highest quality was my shitty internet haha.
Even if all your vids were all 360 id still watch them! I tend to have them on while im doing something anyway so as long as the sounds good i dont need like 4K level stuff after all its youtube not a multi million dollar movie 😂💖
Aw thanks!!
Love that I'm not the only one that gets emotional about my fur babies. I lost my little beagle Aphrodite right before the holidays. It was harder than I thought it would be. God Bless, and I love your channel. ❤️🙏❤️
You are such a joy to watch and you have a really sweet husband to do that for you and your family seems very blessed and lucky to have each other and I hope your dog will be okay and I made your corn dip from a previous video and it was awesome. :) God bless.
Oh Becky not having seen potter movies makes me sad for you BUT you do so much already and share your amazing life with us now wonder you haven’t seen the films. I live at home with my parents and only have the opportunity to grow herbs in my upstairs windowsills which I love, I absolutely love your videos and live in the uk so I cant most of what you do but I have still managed to get lots of tips n tricks to grow what I can in the uk xx
Have you ever looked to see if your food processor comes with a cheese shredding attachment you can buy? Sometimes they make separate attachments and what a time saver! ❤
My sweet Becky, I hope your dog gets better soon.
This is one of the best videos I have seen!
It's so hard when our fur baby's are ill. Praying for everyone. 🙏 As always awesome video I think I'll try the caramelized onion dip for Thanksgiving!
Wow! nice simple easy recipes. I can't wait to try them out.
My mom in law brought the spinach dip to our thanksgiving today and it was so good I took some to to work and had to print the recipe for three co workers! So I came to your channel wen though I have never watch a video to tell you it was a HIT!
Hi Becky, I made the Cranberry Salsa yesterday and it was sooooo delicious‼️‼️👍🏽 A new taste for us. Now I'm waiting for the Turkey😁 Thank you and happy Thanksgiving to all 💐🐞🦃🎉
Inspiring me to get a party started! Looks So Yummy!
You can always put Saran wrap on the chips
YUM looks so good both dips are my favorites also and I want to try that cranberry salsa!!!
Bless your heart hon your so stressed over your puppy you went from dates to figs but hey that’s two different recipes in one 😁 I love two for one’ers 😁
A pecan half would be good stuffed in your dates before wrapping in bacon
My mom always makes bacon wrapped chicken hearts and they are so yummy! I'm definitely going to try the dates
Becky, on the SEIZURES, we recently found out that flea applications can cause seizures, ONLY USE FRONTLINE. This could be the cause of your doggie's seizures, my shepherd was having seizures, switched to Frontline, no more seizures. The other companies that make flea applications are poisoning your dogs. Sad, but true. Love your videos, you, your garden and your kitchen, and hubby are doing great!
My thoughts are with you for your beautiful Gizmo. It’s so very hard when our pets are sick, my boy Jack has heart failure he too is medicated. I value each day I have him as a bonus now. On a brighter note I will definitely be making the caramelised onion dip for Christmas Day. In Australia we don’t celebrate thanksgiving but I do hope that you enjoy yours.
Yum onion dip!!
Yes. The alcohol would be cooked out very fast. Do not worry about any effects of it. The alcohol goes the minute it hits the heat.
My daughter and I love watching your channel!
Do you put the onion dip mixture in the fridge while the onions continue to caramelize?
I watched this twice, the dishes looked so delicious!
I hope you dog is doing better today!! 🤗
Yep, fellowship is so important..and friendship is a beautiful thing…I wish you a great day and a wonderful Thanksgiving Becky! 🙏
Wow thank you so much, Mary!!
Thank you for letting people know to crack their own black pepper! Ground pepper that is pre-ground is full of pencil shavings dust and rat droppings. That is why people sneeze not because of the pepper if you grind fresh pepper you're not going to sneeze.
You work like lightning in the kitchen! I’m so slow lol I’m pregnant and have two toddlers who always need something or want to help in the kitchen! It slows me down. I hope to set aside time to meal prep the way you do!
Hi !! I am new on your channel. You are beautiful and good in cooking step by step. Love your recipes and, easy to follow as you cook or bake. Thank you for sharing. 😃😊🤗 Happy Holiday to you all !!!!
Pre shredded cheese taste different too.
I stuff the dates with walnuts or pecans. Whichever I have on hand.
I make a chase cake for 1 of my dessert for Thanksgiving, it uses 7 bricks of cream cheese. So, I completely understand!
I'm so adding this bacon 🥓 and dates recipe to the menu for Christmas in Australia looks so delish my family will be eating fancy this year 😊so simple but so yimmy looking really appreciate you sharing this 😁😍❤️👍
Great Video as usual. So sorry to hear about your dog… it’s hard when they’re suffering. 😞❤️🌹
Great apps for parties. Looks delicious 🤤
Freeze ur block of cheese and then shred it. , makes it so much easier to use and shred
Happy Thanksgiving
I’m so sorry to hear about your puppy!!! 🥺☹️ I hope they get better.
just to let people know, quite a lot of alcohol is left in food after cooking, especially if you serve it straight away! Alcohol retention in food preparation (1992) showed that even when flambe-ing food, 70-75% of the alcohol was left behind, but after 2 or 3 hours, there's still around 5% alcohol left in the dish! (there are probably more up to date studies but i haven't looked into any myself)
Happy Thanksgiving Becky and Josh ‼️💖💗💞
The hors d'oeuvres look wonderful and I am going to definitely try the onion dip for Christmas 🎄😋
Sending prayers for your wee pup and your families for this holiday season .🙏 Take care and all the best from the UK 🇬🇧❤ Paula x
The wine makes all the difference in the world, it’s just amazing, but I don’t drink , I just don’t like the taste, but cook in food it changes the taste , so much better.Have a great Thanksgiving, sorry about your dog, hope he’s doing better.
You could put small chunks of cream cheese (into,Ave of goat cheese) into those dates! I’m thinking that would be really good! PS. Figs and dates are Not the same thing FYI. You kept saying figs but you bought dates…
I love your channel. Thanks for the recipes. I’ll probably make a few of these apps for our Thanksgiving celebration on Saturday.😀I
I bought the Rodman’s salt, but I didn’t like it due to the fact that it has a lot of grit in it.😣
Awesome 🙏
GIIIIIIRRRLLLLL!!! You've never read Harry Potter? Or watched the movies? We are unfriended! 😛 Take time this winter while the garden is resting and get caught up! 😉🤗 They do not disappoint!!!
Haha I know I need too lol I wasn’t allowed to as a kid and I just haven’t done it
@@AcreHomestead They have them as book on tape too. (winky winky)
Can’t subscribe on tv. I subscribed here. I left an ‘other’ feedback report so TH-cam can accommodate.
Great recipes thanks
Thank you for sharing and I hope your doggie is better? X
Thank you!
Hoping puppy is doing better 😊
Hi Becky. Kimmy from she's in her apron sent me your way.
and i would like to visit you and I would judge if knife are sharp and I have small oil stone for make knife shape lol
Becky where is the huge thing of plastic wrap from! I need that
Is this the version with the alternate ending😂? That’s ok I’ll rewatch it anyway, you’re so personable 🥰
We eat Philadelphia cream cheese all year in Australia. When ever I see someone sautés onions I’m like I think I can smell them. BBQ please 😆
Pre shredded cheese has an anti caking agent that contains aluminium
You didn't end up covering the chips during transporting?
4 mins ago. Wow, m honored. This is great I need new recipes
Could you please post a link to the Pan that you cooked the onions in? Thank you!!!
can anyone tell me if you could Can the cranberry salsa for future use?
what kind of food processor do you use?
For your doggo, did he get a flea or tick medication or rabies vaccine prior to the seizures starting? Some are super toxic.
I feel like we are friends.
That great Becky when is your baby going be here I love your Videos talk about your baby and new house too.
We don’t get fresh cranberries in Australia, do you think the salsa would work using frozen berries?
Thanks for always being REAL becky. You being raw and showing emotion about gizmo broke my heart. Glad that you are surrounded by people who appreciate and love you right back and show up! especially on bad days! Another fabulous video!
Happy Thanksgiving
We’re here for you too Becky, not just the cooking! ❤️🤗
My thoughts exactly!
Exactly. You make us feel like coffee-sharing neighbors. You're my daughter's age, and you're as sweet as she is, so I have a big soft spot in my heart for you...on top of the mad respect for all you do.
I came to the comments to say the same thing!
Could you please do a video on must haves for large batch cooking? Like the size bowls you have, the size roaster you use etc… next year will be my first big preserving year and I’m buying jars and lids and I realize I don’t have a large bowl! Now I don’t know what I don’t know I need!
Great idea!! Thank you!
Pro tip: When shredding softer cheeses, put them in the freezer for just 30 minutes, and they'll be SO much easier to grate. Definitely going to try your caramelized onion dip this Thanksgiving! :)
Great tip!
Great idea about the cheese!!!!!
great tip thanks
I do that too. Works really well. You can cut big chunks and freeze which freezes and chops up so fast and easy.
Came here to say this! When shredding cheese & thinly slicing meats, they always go into the freezer for a bit first. I will literally push back a mealtime by 20 minutes if I forget to do this 🤣
The part about your friend made me tear up…. Always so good to be surrounded by sweet souls. Hope you find a good fit for your dogs medication. So hard to see our pets struggle. They really are part of the family!!
Becky, we're not just here for the cooking. If you were sitting on the couch with your feet up, sipping a cup of cocoa and chatting to the camera, we'd still be here. I hope Gizmo is doing well and Thanksgiving is full of love and joy for you.
Thanks, Lela. :) that is very sweet!
it's so fascinating seeing people try to be on time lololol and i'm definitely gonna make every single one of these. Thank you!
My passion has always been cooking and baking. Unfortunately my adult daughter has absolutely no desire to learn or have any of my recipes. It absolutely breaks my heart. I love that you and your mom cook together. I have always dreamed of that day, but I have given up on that. Cooking and baking throughout the years has been my therapy. Love to watch your videos and see how passionate you are. ❤
Hi. I am nosey and read your comment. I just wanted to suggest that you tell your daughter how enlightening it would be to have you two cooking together. My Mom, never wanted to interfere with my adult married life. After being diagnosed with Alzheimer's, I learned from my uncle that she wanted me to share her gardening with her. She had food, flower and spice gardens every year. She must have relayed to my uncle her desire to get me interested in what she did and to be honest, I don't know where I would have found the time with raising two small boys, a full time career and a side hustle to make ends meet. But if she had just said to me.. I would love to have you come hang out and lets garden together, I would have bent over backwards to make that happen. Just a thought. It haunts me now that she wanted something so simple that I could have given her, if I had only known. Sometimes, the phase of life depicts thought patterns. As I age I tend to think of others' before myself. I don't think I was ever selfish but maybe a bit overwhelmed with life. Holidays are a good time to cook together! Try it!
Same for me and my adult daughter. However, my adult grandson loves to cook. We cook together regularly and we enjoy it so much.
The extent of my daughters cooking is limited. I find that odd since I have always had a passion for cooking/baking all her life.. My daughter uses only salt, pepper and garlic powder on everything she makes..everything tastes so similar and bland but I never complain (her son does lol).
Collect your recipes in a book , nothing fancy, and give it to your daughter. I am 75 now and would love to have had both my grandmothers’ and mother’s recipes. People change. Keep the traditions alive even if someone finds your book in a thrift store someday and is overjoyed 🦋
@@staynyourlane422
I certainly will try AGAIN. Lol! Thank you for the lovely story. Merry Christmas!
@@cathyphegley7848
I have started that yes. It’s a wonderful idea. My mother made a homemade recipe book from both sets of grandmothers in 1990 and I cherish it.
Hello Becky, after years of cooking nearly 65 years now, I discovered that to shred cheese, stick the chunk in the freezer for a little bit. Makes it so much easier to shred. Thanks for all you do! Your the energizer bunny!
Personally, I'm not here just for the cooking/recipes, the gardening, or the tips. I love how open, honest and real you are. Praying for you and your fur baby. Have a Happy and blessed Thanksgiving!
May I just agree? I could not say it any better. At age 76, I appreciate real - and great communication skills!
I was going to say the same thing. I know this is one year later but hopefully all is good with her furbaby
I just discovered this channel today and it's my new favorite. The instructions are clear, as are the explanations for alterations to recipes. The friendly delivery of this information makes me want to come back for more. Thanks for this excellent video and so many others you've so generously shared in your warm, friendly style.
girl I am here for YOU not just the food, vent when you need to. I'm going through it as well and sometimes its nice to just share a vulnerable moment with people. I'm sorry to hear about your dog and I really do hope they feel better soon :(
Your last video had me really inspired for my friends giving and I ended up making a whole 15lb turkey, a bunch of sides and I made an apple pie from scratch and I've never been so proud of myself. As someone who suffers from mental illness your chanel has given me a lot of inspiration to get back in the kitchen and have fun. It really has been helpful ❤️
I love preparing all these recipes from TH-cam. It makes me feel so proud too when my family or other friends let me know it was delicious. I also try to do some DIYs and it makes me feel very crafty although I just follow the videos. lol😅
I'm binge-watching your 2021 videos.... A great way to pack things for travel, I use my laundry baskets! I have both square and rectangles, put a towel in the bottom for hot things and plenty of room to stack everything else. Works great for slow-cookers & dutch ovens too.
I like to caramelise a load of onions at once in my crockpot. I then dehydrate them. They are sooooo good. You can use them in so many things, either straight up or hydrate first. Another thing is you can powder the dried onions, and adding this to soups or stews is oh-my-goodness
Other than the spinach artichoke dip, I hadn’t heard of the others. And they sound A-MAZ-ING!!! I love appetizers and will definitely be making those 3 over the holidays.
I adore your channel!
What an amazing video Becky! I think I will watch it again. So so sorry that your dog is going through that. Thank you for sharing really good appetizer recipes. I think I will try them all. So glad your husband cleaned the house...you guys make a great team. I love seeing your Mom from time to time. Happy joyful peaceful holidays to you and your family. You are so deserving!!
Bless your heart hun. I know what your going through. Been there with several animals and it's heart breaking watching your baby suffer. I had a precious baby, Harley was his name. I loved him dearly ❤️ he also had seizures. I had him on meds to. One night I put him to bed, covered him up with his favorite blanket, kissed him and told him Mommy loves him and said a prayer. Got up the next morning and went over to him and he hadn't moved. He had gone to be with Jesus. Crying as I share this. I will always long to see my Precious Harley in Heaven. Thank God that I have Hope of knowing 🙏 that. My Prayers are with you🥰🐕❤️

Bless your heart, Becky! You are so sweet, and I'm praying for your pup. It's so hard when our fur babies aren't doing well, and I hope his medication get sorted soon! And we are definitely here for you, not just your cooking, so please share away and never feel bad for being real... it's one of your traits that I really love. The appetizers look amazing too, and I will be trying all of them, for sure! Have a great Friendsgiving and Thanksgiving!
WHO GIVES YOU A THUMBS DOWN!??
Jerks😏
You're awesome 👊
These all look amazing! I want to try them all. I had some bacon wrapped, manchego stuffed dates before and they were so delicious I know your date recipe will be as well! Also, Becky thanks for all your hard work & dedication. I definitely notice all your passion shining through in every video! I hope your dog gets better & great friends are such a blessing 🙌
Oh my gosh! Your channel is growing like crazy. Found it looking for meal prep videos. I've been watching for awhile. Good job!!!
I made the cranberry salsa and let me tell any of you reading the comment section this recipe was FABULOUS!! This is definitely going in our family favorite recipes!!
Girl, we are here for everything! We are human and your normalcy gives me hope in getting anywhere in a natural way of life and getting my family on a healthier path. ❤ prayers for your fur baby!
For the bacon wrapped dates, I usually stuff them with sliced camembert cheese. So delicious!
I do homemade cream cheese and a THIN slice of jalapeño, then wrap with bacon.
