I don't have a pressure canner, so what I do is soak my beans over night (I soak a lot) and then I slow cook them in my slow cooker on low for 4.5 hours. Once they are all cooked, I bag them in sandwich sized Ziploc bags, using a serving spoon with slits to not gather up too much liquid. I fill them about half way then lay them down flat and stack them in my freezer in my kitchen. Once they've frozen flat (easy to store and thaw) I move them to our larger freezer in our garage. Thawing is a breeze, I open up the bag and add warm warm and that helps to allow the beans to slide right out of the bag without needing to break it open, so you can wash the bag and reuse it for something else later. You can pop them into your stock pot or skillet at that point and cover it with a lid for a few minutes to get them to thaw out thoroughly. And that's it!
I don't want to dismiss what you are doing with your empty jars, i love your are so diligent and just wish that I could do this, too. My health is very poor at this time. I saw another use for our empty jars that might help those of us that could be left without water services. We are currently in flood stages and our water in many areas has been compromised. I saw full shelves of canned WATER. What a good idea to put clean, safe drinking water in glass and can them.
If your kids like pasta, cook up some elbow noodles and put a scoop of them in the bowl before adding the chili. I didn't grow up eating it that way, but my husband did. I started doing that with our kids as well. It's a great way to stretch that chili out and turn it in to a chili mac.
I took the turkey carcass home from my Aunt’s Thanksgiving and made broth too. My family thinks it is crazy to make broth. I just nod and smile and cook down those bones.
I have been doing this as well since I first started to follow you about 2 years ago. It's just me and hubby, but we're doing it☺️ and it's nice to know that no jars go back empty to the pantry.❤
I'm in the same situation. It's just me and hubby, but I'm literally just now learning how to do all this. I already made turkey broth and will make tomato products today
Such a great idea! It is just the two of us as well. A makes perfect sense to save on storage space! I love the idea of canning in smaller batches. Have been making Jessica's cranberry juice for two years now and really like it!😊
Another way to fill empty jars if you don't want to dedicate as much time cooking and canning is to put together the dry ingredients for different baking projects. My kids and I put together brownie mix, pumpkin muffin mix, zucchini muffin mix and biscuit mix yesterday :) they had a blast and it saved me some time on future days!
I had an idea for a "cupboard challenge" for me to try throughout 2024. I have more cook and bake ware than room to keep it in my relatively small kitchen.. Some of it is on the sentimental side as in Aunt Mary's this and mom's that. My challenge to myself is to identify anything I haven't used in a year and repurpose, re-home, resomething it. Wish me luck!
Good morning Jessica, Although I haven't actually starting to can as yet, I am so keen to start after watching your vlogs. I have noticed also that I'm more aware of using left over food in the next meal, which pleases me so much. No more waste sitting in the fridge in containers. I enjoy your vlogs so much . Thanks so much for all you're teaching me 😊 Best wishes to you and your beautiful family. Deb. Canberra Australia 🦘
Good morning Jessica and family! Such a good idea keeping the jars full, even for two people like us. Made a batch of your cranberry juice this week. Get my cranberries here once a year from Snopac foods. They are based here in Minnesota, so it is nice to support a more local business. I really like all of the ideas from this week's video. It is wonderful motivation for the winter months! You might be doing this already, but an idea and easy source for making broth. I was able to get 27 lbs of beef femur bones left over after butcher from my local mom and pop butcher shop for $1lb. They filled two 18qt. roasters and will make wonderful broth with the marrow in it, yum! This time of year as you know, is the busiest time for butchers and easier for someone who is looking for a good inexpensive source for making broth.🥰😊God bless and take care!
I always enjoy your little bit here and there canning. I realized as I was watching you make your chili base and your beans that it would be easy to can a base to make the Italian soup Pasta Fagioli. I lived in Naples Italy for 2 years and locally they don't tend to add much meat to it. So doing a can of "tomato base" the cooked beans and the pasta would make this all day dish come together quickly. Especially if you added your garlic pucks or garlic scapes to it. Just an idea for the future if you wanted a different flavor. I'm doing pumpkin cubes and turkey broth this week too! Have a great week and thank you as always for your inspiring videos.
I love to see Benjamin, he reminds me of my 15yo at that age. With three teen boys and a 11yo daughter I miss that stage. Don't get me wrong I love my big kids too but those little guys pull at the heart. I can all year as well.
Love your logic with the way you do your jars, fill them in winter and empty them in the spring to be ready to refill in the summer. I can't wait until your challenges this year. Love your channel. Keep up the good, hard work lady. You are a winner in my book. :)
Have you done a video on how you make your muffins? I've seen you bake a lot of different kinds, but is there like a base recipe that you use and just tweak?
Thank you Jessica for inspiring all of us! I have been canning cranberry-apple juice and cranberry orange sauce. I have frozen raspberries that will be turned into jam soon! Pineapples are on sale this week and I may can those too! This is a great time of year to start a batch of vanilla extract which will be ready at the beginning of fall for baking! I also dehydrate grape tomatoes to use on pizza, etc. The possibilities are endless! God bless you and your family!
Ohhh. Love this and have learned so much! Thank you. Looking forward to more canning videos. I'm doing these and clearing out my freezer at the same time too. So excited!
As always I watch your channel right after church service. I love watching you interact with the kids while cooking. I think every mom can relate to that. Your family is so lovely. May God continue to bless you and your family
Good morning my dear friend, another great video!! I love how efficient you are, your storage is proof that you are working hard! I also wanted to wish you and Adam a very Happy Anniversary, you two are a beautiful couple!! Looking forward to next week already.
Awh Hannah has grown so much! Super cute 😊❤ It’s great to see some of these winter canning projects as I’ve made a list of a few things too that I don’t have time to do in summer, I’ve made raspberry jam (frozen from my allotment) and used up all of my tomatoes to make pizza sauce. I will be making medlar jam this week. I’m tempted to buy some cranberries now too as you gave me lots of ideas 😁 I’m already looking forward to the Jan and feb challenge as this year I really enjoyed it - my first time participating.
This video kept me smiling from those delicate piano maestro fingers closing jar rings to the heart melting scene of feeding the baby with so much love, thank you:)))
Love all your food preserving videos! Im trying to find the one you did where you made a tomato jam. My teenage daughter has some yellow pear tomatoes and cherry tomatoes in the freezer to use up. We want to make the jam like you did. Im having trouble remembering which video it was in! Thanks for sharing your recipes and tips to be good stewards of our homes.
Nice ideas to keep the jars full! I will be making some chili bases and dry beans as well this coming week in my empty jars. I also started a sourdough starter for the first time. Have a blessed week Everyone! Much Love From Okc ❤
Jessica, you amaze me! I learn so much from you! I’m an only child of an only child and I have an only child! I just sit here in amazement watching you! My harvest right freeze dryer just came in….(bought it on sale) I’d love for you to go more in depth on how you use yours…. ie lengths of time…. We live in southwest Louisiana, however, I’m just so curious how I’m able to can (safely) base ingredients for our family and friends! Thank you, Hugs to you and yours!
Good morning, Jessica, you're always busy, busy, but the work now makes another day a little easier. The cranberry juice idea is a great idea, I've never seen that. Thanks for the inspiration.
We had very similar ideas. I had multiple bags for fruit scraps (peach/nectarines, cherry pits ans apple scraps). Working on jelly for gifts and my family. House smells so good right now. Thank you for sharing your ideas and always encouraging us. God bless.
Greetings from the snowy hills of Vermont. This is the first time I've seen frozen garlic like you showed in this video. This caught my attention because I have a ton of fresh garlic that I need to do something with to preserve it and I have been at a loss. Would you please let me know the process you used to put your garlic up this way? Thank you and I am looking forward to learning something new! 🙂
Such a helpful video for me. I’m pretty new to canning and this gave me many new ideas and makes it seem so easy. You help remove the fear and hesitancy I have about canning.
This is my norm too, since I found your channel. It's probably the 1st tip I picked up. But right now, I am in the empty out freezer and jars stage since our solid 9b zone has it's best planting time coming up in just a few weeks (Christmas Day anyone??) Already putting in green onions, garlic and lettuce. I'm late on the garlic, but I'll manage. Will be checking big freezer for any spare cranberries for juice and sauce though, making way for this year's harvest. YUM
❤I enjoy your canning videos so much. They are inspiring. I canned 16 pints of pinto beans two days ago. Someone gifted us two bags of dry pinto beans and I went to work. Like you I like to make meal making simple. When I feel good I take full advantage to do canning. I don't have a freeze dryer so I dehydrate and freeze ingredients for later use, and it is so convenient. Aw, Levi feeding his sister, little Ben; I didn't see John, but you know, I love those little ones. And what can I say about Hanna. Beautiful. Love you guys. *Hugs*
Thanks for your input on the empty jars back on the shelf’s. I made some extra rice and canned them. We live in the country and have black outs during winter. Can set them by the fire place to warm. Thank you for your sharing your knowledge. Blessings to you and your family.550Tx
We generally only have two of us for meals but canning is still well worth my time. Last month we picked up our Beef and pork. I need to can some of that. Beans are on my list too. Now that cranberries are available I will get some to can cranberry juice too. I wish my adult daughters would realize they could do this too. Happy canning!
Comment on jelly: Last week I was given some unloved quince. I basically chopped them, boiled them, put the clear liquid in a pot until done. Also not pectin. I make all of my jams without pectin Until you are comfortable eyeing the jam or jelly, my suggestion is to use a candy thermometer. For jam I always looked for 218 and jelly 220. Basically, cook it to soft ball stage. I used the quince pulp to make quince sauce (with sugar). Quince might be an acquired taste, but I love it
Staying organized, not my strong suit, I even get lazy with labeling the lid. Yeah I put the year on it but then I start “abbreviating” with initials and that can get a little interesting later on:) I play this little game show with myself in the pantry guess what the initials me.:)
I took full advantage of the Forjars Black Friday deals. I made cinnamon cranberry sauce, spiced apple sauce and canned 25 pints of sweet potatoes that I got on sale for 80 cents for 3#.
1 bag of cranberries plus one orange (the entire orange chopped fine with cranberries) and a cup of pure sugar cane makes an awesome cranberry relish...I ve never canned this so not sure how that would turn out...
I really enjoy your videos on keeping stocked for winter. This is a marvelous method of maintaining the food pantry. I haven’t canned in a while however I stock my freezers In similar ways. Tomorrow I make and freeze homemade chili!
I love the dry bean canning tip, especially with the vinegar. I do can dry beans. Why not? When I cook a pot of beans, it’s always too much. I would much rather open a pint or 20 oz jar of my canned beans. I never presoaked and risked overfilling and having syphoning. Love your channel.
I have been following you for the last two years now and I am loving all your videos. You give me so much inspiration. I have 3 children at home, 2?moved out and two grandchildren to feed lol. Bless you and your family ❤!
Our turkey was almost 26 pounds and my husband smoked it with apple wood. Soo good! So I made turkey broth, too! Cooked it 24 hours and was able to freeze 13 quarts of broth! It will be amazing to season greens, dried beans or anything with that applewood smoked flavor! I plan to get a new canner. My canner has been passed down to me from my mother-in-law and it is so old I'm just afraid to trust it. I can't even get gaskets for it anymore.
I made a pear cranberry jam last year that was popular as cranberry sauce this Thanksgiving, probably apples would be good too. I think cranberries are kind of an extreme flavor, so I like to temper it with something milde.
I'm canning beans for the first time n I greatly appreciate ur knowledge although I'm 66 n can a lot never done Beans TY n God Bless you and your family 🙏❤️🙏

@@smith452011 I'm already addicted 😆
@@forrestgump9576 I have freeze-dried cranberries. I could make juice out of those. And jelly :)
This is so satisfying! The colors, the coziness, everything! You're the best, Jessica! Also, Happy 17th Wedding Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary 🎉
Thank you!
The Pantry Challenge is coming soon, and I can't wait!

How do you store your mixes?
In jars :)
Love your son feeding her her yogurt

I love how you let nothing go to waste. You have showed how to use what someone else would throw away and some GOOD food out of it
I would recommend putting cardboard on top of the lower jars before stacking.
Good morning Jessica,
Although I haven't actually starting to can as yet, I am so keen to start after watching your vlogs. I have noticed also that I'm more aware of using left over food in the next meal, which pleases me so much. No more waste sitting in the fridge in containers. I enjoy your vlogs so much .
Thanks so much for all you're teaching me 😊

The FD cranberries could also make a pink frosting! We've done other flavors!
You are such a great Mother and wife Jessica. They are lucky to have you. 😊

What great lessons you are teaching your kids!

Those freeze dried cranberries would be good in cranberry orange muffins or quick bread.
That chili looked delicious.
😊 I do the refill as they empty plan. The last few yrs, "Canuary" is a blessing. I use items from the freezer & root cellar.
When I make my turkey broth, I save the bones, dry them completely and turn them into bonemeal for the garden. No waste!
I love the rhythm of the seasons and the way you flow with them.
Mama Baird sent me by. I really enjoyed this video! you got my thumbs up! Thank you for sharing!

I just watch and I appreciate you including Us out here with these great ideas you're realizing, Thank You for sharing
As always I watch your channel right after church service. I love watching you interact with the kids while cooking. I think every mom can relate to that. Your family is so lovely. May God continue to bless you and your family
Looks good as always. Happy Anniversary.
I have used freeze dried fruit (powdered down) to make colored buttercream for cakes. But rehydrating with juice is a great idea!
Good morning my dear friend, another great video!! I love how efficient you are, your storage is proof that you are working hard! I also wanted to wish you and Adam a very Happy Anniversary, you two are a beautiful couple!! Looking forward to next week already.
Thanks so much
It would have been a great cranberry salsa sauce as well:)
Your cooking/canning amazes me
I think the most satisfying aspect of canning is all the pretty colors in the jar. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and expertise.
Awh Hannah has grown so much! Super cute 😊❤

The very last scene was precious!❤
Thank you for my Sunday morning entertainment while having my coffee! Enjoy your week!!
Thanks for giving us a snapshot into your life. Have a blessed week.
Thanks for reminding me to replenish when used. It truly works to stay organized. Have a blessed week.

Hi Jessica 👋🏻
Thanks for your input on the empty jars back on the shelf’s. I made some extra rice and canned them. We live in the country and have black outs during winter. Can set them by the fire place to warm. Thank you for your sharing your knowledge. Blessings to you and your family.550Tx
I'm new to your channel and am playing catch up.
So far the knowledge is awesome! Thank you for your channel and the information you provide.
You inspire me. We are a family of 2 but to put items on the shelf in quantity is so helpful.
We generally only have two of us for meals but canning is still well worth my time. Last month we picked up our Beef and pork. I need to can some of that. Beans are on my list too. Now that cranberries are available I will get some to can cranberry juice too. I wish my adult daughters would realize they could do this too. Happy canning!
Such great ideas. So agree with the concept of convenience. Not to mention, obviously this is so much better than preservative laden food.
Fabulous video. Thank you for sharing!
Comment on jelly:
Last week I was given some unloved quince. I basically chopped them, boiled them, put the clear liquid in a pot until done. Also not pectin. I make all of my jams without pectin
Until you are comfortable eyeing the jam or jelly, my suggestion is to use a candy thermometer. For jam I always looked for 218 and jelly 220. Basically, cook it to soft ball stage.
I used the quince pulp to make quince sauce (with sugar). Quince might be an acquired taste, but I love it

I took full advantage of the Forjars Black Friday deals. I made cinnamon cranberry sauce, spiced apple sauce and canned 25 pints of sweet potatoes that I got on sale for 80 cents for 3#.
1 bag of cranberries plus one orange (the entire orange chopped fine with cranberries) and a cup of pure sugar cane makes an awesome cranberry relish...I ve never canned this so not sure how that would turn out...
It would be delicious!!
Happy Sunday. I love that wooden cabinet behind you.
You make everything look so easy!! I really enjoy watching you put together your different home canned foods to make your dinners, lunches etc. 👍🙂
I just made cran - grape juice. My daughter will come over a couple of times a month just to pick up juice 😂
I really enjoy your videos on keeping stocked for winter. This is a marvelous method of maintaining the food pantry. I haven’t canned in a while however I stock my freezers In similar ways. Tomorrow I make and freeze homemade chili!
I love the dry bean canning tip, especially with the vinegar. I do can dry beans. Why not? When I cook a pot of beans, it’s always too much. I would much rather open a pint or 20 oz jar of my canned beans. I never presoaked and risked overfilling and having syphoning. Love your channel.

Would you mind sharing your orange cranberry muffin mix?
Thank you for your great videos. I love how you explain things like the tallow in the can, so interesting.
I just found your channel. Great information and recipes. I am looking forward to trying them out.
Hope I can find some cranberries on sale .. love gran juice
Just found your site. You are awesome. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge knowledge.
I really enjoy your cooking preserving videos thank you!
all great suggestions:) thank you for sharing!
I would love the refried bean recipe and canning instructions. Is it a recipe I could look up?
Nice video! I really like the way you share your information, simple and to the point😊
Thanks so much! 😊
You have such a soothing voice and I love learning from you..ty:)
I love seeing how you use the items preserved in the video. Thank you. =)
I really enjoy my morning coffee every Sunday morning watching you. Thank you so much for making my mornings
You are such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe.
Another great video. Loved the ending. Baby says I don't want to clap. I want more food. Great children .
I never fail to learn something new to consider and try. Your practical approach to putting up food has been very encouraging. Thank you.
You are inspiring Jessica!
Another great video. I have bought dried beans and I’m looking forward to getting them canned.
I have been following you for the last two years now and I am loving all your videos. You give me so much inspiration. I have 3 children at home, 2?moved out and two grandchildren to feed lol. Bless you and your family ❤!
Our turkey was almost 26 pounds and my husband smoked it with apple wood. Soo good! So I made turkey broth, too! Cooked it 24 hours and was able to freeze 13 quarts of broth! It will be amazing to season greens, dried beans or anything with that applewood smoked flavor! I plan to get a new canner. My canner has been passed down to me from my mother-in-law and it is so old I'm just afraid to trust it. I can't even get gaskets for it anymore.
You can also turn the cranberries into gummies or fruit leather. Powder it and use un smoothies
Has anyone ever tried making cranberry-apple jelly? Don’t know why but that just sounds like it would be a good combination.
I made a pear cranberry jam last year that was popular as cranberry sauce this Thanksgiving, probably apples would be good too. I think cranberries are kind of an extreme flavor, so I like to temper it with something milde.
Enjoyed the video ❤
I'm canning beans for the first time n I greatly appreciate ur knowledge although I'm 66 n can a lot never done Beans TY n God Bless you and your family 🙏❤️🙏
