    So awesome to see your husband and kids being so supportive.
    This is how a woman in a house full of guys should be treated, like a queen ❤.

    Now we all know Brayden loves 90% of everything sweet mama cooks and his face says it all. Now when Ryder loves something he means it. I love your boys. You and Dusty have done an amazing job. Great people raising amazing men.
    Way to go Brooke. 👍🏻👍🏻❤️

I love that you cook good but simpler meals that don’t break the bank! I adore how your family praises your cooking!

    In my new bride, non-cook days, I made chili with 1-2 cans ranch style beans, 1 pound of browned ground meat, some dried minced onion, A package of chili mix and a can of tomato soup. My husband preferred it to any of the fancy kinds I would make once I learned how to cook.

    It's been a rough year and a half in our home, even though it's just us two. With a broken femur +a hip replacement (then a dislocation + a fall= 2 more surgeries in the hospital aug& sept)so hubs has taken over the cooking. Trying to keep it quick and easy. To top it off his job let him go. So these idea are perfect! Thanks Brooke for the ideas, encouragement and seeing your family brings love and laughter. Such a beautiful blessing

    I have 6 sons and 1 daughter smack Dab in the middle. I love these boys and her friends.. the looks on their faces!! They literally call my boys and say, " hey.. Your mom cooking?? " My son says she cooks every night! 15 minutes later 4 boys show up at the door.... So the cost of dinner is a spotless kitchen by the 4 boys and my son! 😂

    I love the paper towel trick, can you believe I used to use slices of bread! Wasted a lot of bread that way but no more, now it’s the paper towel trick. A lot more economical! Love you’re channel, everyone eats good & they all look healthy & happy!

    • @Caitlin1928

    Great easy recipes, Brooke!
    For the chicken & noodles, I would chop up an onion and2 or even 3 stalks of celery and cook them in with the chicken. I like the flavor, plus it’s a way of adding some veggies to the meal.

  • @trapped7534
    @trapped7534 17 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Good menus!!!! I appreciate your help. I started cooking when I was about 8-9. Cooked big family meals while at home. Smaller meals after leaving home. But always had enough leftovers to feed a couple more people if anyone dropped in.
    My problem now is. I am 69 years old and am widowed with a rare visitor.
    I find it almost impossible to think of something I can fix just for me. Everything is unbalanced and I really need it to be balanced because I am diabetic. By watching you, I can figure out something that would be simple to fix just for me and it looks delicious too. Thank you, Brooke .
    By the way, I love you and your family.

    Thanks, Brooke! I love easy meals. Less time in the kitchen equals more time with family and friends. It seems like yesterday you made it to the 100,000 subscribers, and your numbers are going up quickly. I enjoy your channel, I adore your kids. Ryder has really changed, I remember when you would say he's, basically, a critic and really turning into a great young man. All your boys, Dusty, and yourself show so much love for each other. I was always told a man will treat his wife, or significant partner, the way their dad loves there mom. Thanks Brooke!

    I love that night gown..I have the exact same one! A fun video idea would be to make 5 lists of foods. Like one has 6 meat options, another has 6 grain options, then 6 veggie options, 6 dairy options, 6 prepackaged options..each family member gets a random list and secretly selects one of their 6. Then you get to create a meal with the chosen items! Lol

    I got a top round roast for $11.00 at Aldis. It's at least 2 meals for 3 people. I get a lot of ground turkey, either bogo at publix or 3.99 lb. Best prices on ground beef is at Costco. Some of our meals are a can of soup and a grilled turkey and cheese sandwiches.
