Thank you for sharing. I just went to a food bank a few days ago for the first time. I was so nervous but they were so kind and generous. It was videos like this that encouraged me to accept help. I was able to feel some relief that I have plenty of food. I didn’t realize how much I needed the help. Thank you for making these videos. ❤️
From Australia, where lamb is our meat!! Beat way for a rack of lamb is to defrost, rub the skin with olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary and garlic cloves pierced in the fat side. Place fat up in a roasting tray with about 1-2 cups beef stock/broth, a splash of red wine if desired and some halves onions and carrots around it. Roast until medium/medium well at 180 degreea Celsius, take out of pan and let rest about 10 min. Roast/airfry potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin or any other veg ,you want while lamb is roasting. Also steam some cauliflower, broccoli, green beans, corn etc When lamb is resting, remove onion and carrots from lamb pan to serve with meal, add flour or corn flour to drippings, add water and make gravy. Serve each plate with lamb and preferred veg, drizzle with gravy. Lastly, enjoy a traditional Aussie Roast!! Ps any leftover lamb/veg/gravy can be dices really small (especially the lamb) mixed together, put in a dish topped with mash/sweet potato mash and cheese and bakes until hot and cheese melted for a TRUE shepherds pie (because shepherds don't raise cow's!🤣🤣)
Wow. Great haul. Rack of lamb is usually cooked fat side down. Rub with salt, pepper and rosemary. I cook mine in oven have never tried crockpot. But why not. Blessings to your family
Just subscribed sweetie that is a fabulous haul xx the soup could be used as the base for a casserole xx rack of lamb is the most expensive cut of lamb don't overcook it that's about £40 in the UK xx please be careful using the glass bowls as votives a lot of glass thats used in desserts is not suitable for candles as it could overheat and explode xx i'm looking forward to seeing more videos xx
What a blessing in deed! I love how you talk about how your going to fix different means and snacks for the kiddos! Ingenious idea to sprout for chickens and keep them healthy since they are going to give you eggs when they start laying again. Some people just have to complain! You don’t even need to explain what you do! ❤
God provides more than we can imagine and over abundantly! What a blessing with your huge food haul. Your kids will really enjoy root beer floats. I am now having to watch carbs and sugar intake. Right now it seems overwhelming but hopefully l can learn from you and asking Google of course. God Bless!
If you have air fryer cut the lamb chops slice them salt and pepper them and air fry them about 5 minutes turn them and air fry them at (400) about another 3 or 4 minutes there so yummy if no air fryer bake them on cookie sheet at 400. about the same time.
Sear the rack of lamb on all sides on high heat in skillet with olive oil.Brush on brown mustard then coat with fresh bread crumbs mixed with lots of fresh garlic, fresh or dried crushed rosemary or dried, thyme, salt and pepper. Drizzle olive over the mixture til moist, not wet. Place on a small rack in a baking dish and roast in a preheated 475 degrees for12-15 minutes. Sounds like a lot of work but is very quick!!!!! Yum!
I agree, hot and fast in the oven for lamb, either just seasoned or with a crust as you suggest. Don't put it in a crock pot, you have an expensive, delicate cut of meat, it should be pink in the middle. Lamb fat needs to be crisp, it's not nice all soggy from a slow cooker! Needs something sharp to cut the richness - mint sauce, redcurrant jelly, lemon or plain yoghurt all work depending on the spicing you use
Lamb is best low and slow in your oven in my opinion. Go about preparing it pretty much like a beef roast in your oven. Keep temperature to about 275, keep rack of lamb covered over with aa lid or foil. Remove lid or foil for the last 15-30 minutes depending on your oven. Spices are pretty simple- salt, pepper, fresh or dried rosemary and thyme. Rub a bit of olive oil or avacado oil on the meat and then rub and shake on your spices. Lamb is "done" when it still looks quite red. Think of how a prime rib roast looks when it is at its best temperature- more red than pink. Of course you CAN cook it longer, but you will lose some of the juice, tenderness and sweetness from the lamb meat. Many people like to serve it with a mint jelly or a greek-type yogurt sauce. That is your preference. Personally, I HATE mint jelly. I would go with a barely warmed plain greek yogurt with a bit of the same spices I used on the meat- rosemary and thyme foe sure. It will get thinner as it warms on the stove. You don't need much, just enough to lightly drizzle over each chop you cut from the roast. That is MY way of making it. I am sure there are dozens of other ways than the way I do it. I am not a big fan of lamb, but it is a high protein meal which ia great for growing bodies! God Bless 🥰
You can bake the lamb ribs in your oven with your choice of seasoning with side of steamed rice or salad. You can also do sandwiches if you cook in slow cooker. The meat falls off the bone.
Normally my "friend" and I get together on Tuesdays, but this week she had more time in her schedule for Wednesday. I have to do things more on my own because my dad survived a triple bypass. I miss him, it's been two weeks or something.
wow, you got a lot of good food - that certainly should help this month. i do like lamb but have never cooked a rack. i'm sure there are sites with good recipes. i'd be tempted to shred the jumbo carrots. like carrot and raisin salad, or into soup. hope you all are on the mend. take care, stay well and warm.
Chop or shred the carrots. Freeze what you can’t use right away. Use for soups or salads or fried rice. Beef and broccoli. Any Asian style meals. Add to spaghetti sauce especially homemade sauce. I have a good recipe for carrot bread which freezes well.
Simple living Alaska has chickens and they fish for salmon. The carcasses they don’t boil down for dog food, they give to their chickens. They said they lay eggs with the orangest yolks. Tasty little dinosaurs 🦖🐓 I kinda wish I could have some but they would become my pets.
Your apples, carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, garlic, ginger, most root vegetables will store for months without refrigeration. So if you can get a whole box I’d go for it. You do have to check them regularly, and remove anything that is starting to turn, because 1 bad apple spoils the bunch.
That was a amazing haul!!! Omg that sandwich meat and cheese! That will save you so much $ at the grocery store with the snacks and stuff! Glad to see another video too❤🎉
The food was only going to end up in the rubbish. The chickens are not taking from anyone. In fact, they provide for your family and who doesn't love a shitty egg, lol. Sorry if the profanity affends anyone. P.s. love you channel all the way down under in Australia 🇦🇺
Wow what an amazing amount of food. I'm getting brave enough to try the local food bank, open Mon-Thurs. Do you have an opinion which would be the best day to go if they give me a choice?
Noooo!! (Sorry, I'm not meaning to be rude at all xx )That's the most expensive cut of lamb (equivalent to prime rib/eye/scotch fillet steak)!! It needs a quick roast to medium, medium well at max, rested, and then sliced as 'chops' and served as a full roast meal!! Leftover meat and veg are diced very fine, mixed with leftover gravy, then add mash to make true shepherd's pie!! If you ever told an Aussie, New Zealander or British person you threw a rack in the crockpot they would have a heart attack!! Lamb loin is the next most expensive and quick pan fried to med/ med well max. Any other cut needs to be slow braised, although 4 quarter chops can be seasoned and barbecued (your equivalent would be a grill like you would put steak on). In Australia they are often done in summer, with sausages, beef patties, onions, maybe prawns and salads such as coleslaw and potato salad, plenty of buttered white bread and tomato sauce. Lamb is the traditional Australia day food which is in summer, and 'chuck a lamb chop on the barbie' has been our slogan for a very long time 😀
Don’t ever feel bad for giving food from the food bank/pantries to you animals. They have to eat too! I would get tuna fish specifically for my cats because I don’t like seafood. My neighbor would get the canned salmon for his dog and cat. There is nothing wrong with feeding your animals because they are in fact dependent on you to take care of them in whatever way you are able to. This is why I think we should be able to claim our pets on our taxes 🤨!
Great haul. You could do the rack of lamb Indian style with some herbs and spices and serve with warm naan bread, rice and some veggies (anything). I hope the chickens enjoy their snacks.
I don't see a problem feeding the chickens. Chickens provide eggs and meat. They provide food to you as well. It's better to be used and not thrown in the trash because nobody takes it.
Roast that lamb, it will be lovely and tender or you could cut the chops seperate and barbecue or cook in frying pan, they are the best part of the lamb.
It completely depends on the food bank in question. Some have no requirements, some only require you live in the county it serves, some require proof of income. You have to contact each pantry to find out what they require.
I don't think there's anything wrong with you feeding your chickens the lentils. If you know it's something that your family wouldn't like and at least something else is eating it and then turn the chickens are going to give you eggs at least something is eating them instead of them going to waste.❤ you have to do what you think is best for your family and their needs.😅
Thank you for sharing. I just went to a food bank a few days ago for the first time. I was so nervous but they were so kind and generous. It was videos like this that encouraged me to accept help.

I think it’s so nice you give your chickens lentils. I’m definitely for the animals enjoying good food. 🐥 ❤❤

Lamb needs seasonings, poke holes, stuff with garlic. Heavy on salt and pepper in oven, its great
350 at 20 min per lb
Wow. Great haul. Rack of lamb is usually cooked fat side down. Rub with salt, pepper and rosemary. I cook mine in oven have never tried crockpot. But why not. Blessings to your family
That food tray would have been $66 $49.50 + $16.50 I had to learn walmarts clearance labela because I am always buying clearance items. Great haul!
wow...I can't believe the price of that meat n cheese tray!!! expensive
HUGE haul!!! Wow!!
That tray looks like 6 pounds of lunch meat and 3 pounds of cheese. That’s great! And you can give the garnish to the chickens.

The chickens would probably eat those squash too, seeds and all, but I’d eat the seeds myself.
So many blessings!
Truly a blessing!

The Chickens have to eat too, and I think that isa great idea sprouting the lentils...

Wow…great food haul❤
Nice dessert and fruit and veggies to
wow, you got a lot of good food - that certainly should help this month. i do like lamb but have never cooked a rack. i'm sure there are sites with good recipes. i'd be tempted to shred the jumbo carrots. like carrot and raisin salad, or into soup. hope you all are on the mend. take care, stay well and warm.
You can poke the carrots and microwave them like baked potatoes. A little butter and I can imagine biting into the side of a giant carrot 🥕
Chop or shred the carrots. Freeze what you can’t use right away. Use for soups or salads or fried rice. Beef and broccoli. Any Asian style meals. Add to spaghetti sauce especially homemade sauce. I have a good recipe for carrot bread which freezes well.
My son grates a carrot in the sauce too. Sounds really different, but tastes great.
Prima Della is Walmart expensive,, great haul
Wow, you did great. I rarely get meat threw my food pantry.

While that soup is still frozen, cut it in half or quarters and bag them up to keep in the freezer.
What a blessing, so many wonderful items. You explain how you will use it all, wonderful. Great idea to Gove dome things to the chickens.
thanks for sharing and have a great day!!
Would the chickens eat steamed carrots? If they still have them next time you could steam them up for them.
Wow! So happy for you and your family!!!

Lamb is great with just lemon pepper and roasted. Keep it easy
Amazing blessings!
You could cook the lamb in the ceockpot, takenwhat meat off that you can, and then make a true shepherds pie?

Lunch meat tray a real treasure.
Don’t ever feel bad for giving food from the food bank/pantries to you animals. They have to eat too! I would get tuna fish specifically for my cats because I don’t like seafood.

There is nothing wrong with feeding your animals because they are in fact dependent on you to take care of them in whatever way you are able to. This is why I think we should be able to claim our pets on our taxes 🤨!
You have a really nice food pantries. Not that way by me. Great haul!
The rack of lamb you can cut it up and make lamb chops,
Great haul. You could do the rack of lamb Indian style with some herbs and spices and serve with warm naan bread, rice and some veggies (anything). I hope the chickens enjoy their snacks.
You did good gurl!!!
❤ zevia root beer and nice food haul
You get better for from the pantry than you buy at the store
Season as if beef or pork and roast in the oven
I don't see a problem feeding the chickens. Chickens provide eggs and meat. They provide food to you as well. It's better to be used and not thrown in the trash because nobody takes it.
Do chicken eat carrots?
Roast that lamb, it will be lovely and tender or you could cut the chops seperate and barbecue or cook in frying pan, they are the best part of the lamb.
Hey there
What is the criteria for visiting food banks, making a certain amount of money per month?
It completely depends on the food bank in question. Some have no requirements, some only require you live in the county it serves, some require proof of income. You have to contact each pantry to find out what they require.
Fix it with mint jelly
I don't think there's anything wrong with you feeding your chickens the lentils. If you know it's something that your family wouldn't like and at least something else is eating it and then turn the chickens are going to give you eggs at least something is eating them instead of them going to waste.❤ you have to do what you think is best for your family and their needs.😅
Never had Lamb. Don’t think I would like it.
Not sure how to cook the rack of lamb. Anytime I’ve had lamb it tasted like soap.
Nice food haul! ❤
