- Meal planning is a homemaker MUST. I can confidently say that meal planning makes my life easier, keeps us within our budget, and produces better meals for our family. Join me as I share our dinners of the week. We're making Instant Pot beans and rice (a very frugal, but satisfying meal), ambrosia salad with lemon pepper chicken, homemade hamburger helper, pizza, and baked potato skins. My daughter also makes dessert.
⚜️ For all recipes, please visit my corresponding blogpost: dailyconnoisseur.blogspot.com...
⚜️The Instant Pot Rice and Beans recipe is from ifoodreal.com/instant-pot-ric...
The Hamburger Helper recipe was inspired by this one (although I modified it a bit... you can check my blog for my take on the recipe) www.countrysidecravings.com/h...

Hi Jennifer these meals look delicious. The potato skins would also be good with the scooped out potato flesh combined with butter and your All Season, the bacon and grated cheese then stuffed back into the skins and put back into the oven to get bubbly. A twice baked potato. Thank you for the meal inspiration. Have a lovely day 😊.
Made me smile hearing black beans and rice from Amy:). Your sweet! Have a beautiful day!
Thank you, Jennifer! After many years of frantic meal preps, I have become calmer and more patient since watching your cooking vlogs (deep breaths help, too!). Bon appétit ! kate in Kentucky
I liked the music in the background it was a very calming video.
All your meals looked great! Hope you're receptive to another tip. It is much easier and safer to cut your peppers skin side down. Your knife will go right through them and there's much less chance of cutting yourself. Thanks for sharing.
I really appreciate you make kid friendly meals bc my children are so picky!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol makes me crazy! These meals look YUMMy
I grew up w homemade hamburger helper . “Sticks to your ribs” as my mom used to say! My grown children still request it for Sunday dinners when we get together. Your recipes are lovely, fresh and easy to make. Thank you Jennifer 😃

I'm a new subscriber/watcher of your videos. I just purchased your book Lessons from Madame Chic and am half way through it. I have cleaned out my closet and will try the 10 item wardrobe this fall. I'm in Northern CA so we don't get cooler weather until November. I purchase a black dress and I have two long but thin material scarves. Can you or do you have a video on how to wear scarves so that I can make more of my black dress. ...you wear your half apron but I slop stuff all over when I'm cooking. I wear an apron everyday for cleaning and cooking but my aprons aren't as pretty as yours. Enjoy your videos. Can you do one on how you met your husband?
Your headband is lovely!
Thank you, Donna!
I made the salmon with crabcakes , potato gratin and asparagus .AWESOME!! THANKS!!
All of the meals look great!
Great job as always. I just found you recently. I have been doing a capsule wardrobe with Vintage McCall pattern dresses since high school. Everyone teases me but I am short AND have an hour glass figure, so Jeans with a blouse or tee-shirt are uncomfortable and depressing for me. You remind me of how my mother raised us. I absolutely hated homemaking and cleaning when I lived under her roof. Now, after being on my own 13 years and married I have a new appreciation, especially being digital soldier in the Cold War against Pedos on Twitter, where I deal with very rough subjects on a daily basis, it's nice to turn on Debussy and an apron an make a sanctuary of a home with lovely meals. Thank you!
Thank you! Keep up the good fight!
Hi Alexia, I have been following Jennifer for quite some time and she to reminded me of the way my Grandmother inspired us. It is sadly hard to find like minded communities these days.
I loved what you said about dresses as I have the same body shape and at 36 I have finally committed to a style that is true to me and not fashion. I have made a few dresses but would love to know what pattern numbers you use if you don't mind sharing ❤
If it makes you feel better, I have had that same juicer for about a year now, and apparently I’ve been using it incorrectly the whole time! Now I know, haha! I just ordered beans and brown rice from Rancho Gordo, since all my friends rave about them. I’ll have to try the instant pot recipe for beans and rice when they arrive.
@@prueconnelly3904 I find any dress that has a defined waist, since thats my smallest section . I just used a few of these below and I used floral jersey knit, so it stretches, flows and feels like PJs! I do make shorter, than directed because I'm small and live in Phoenix az, and its hot! So I usually cut below knee, to tea legnth.
My favs I have made more than once

@@alexiaicenhower8314 thank you so much for your reply and the great advice. I live in Melbourne, Australia so we are just coming into our spring/summer so I to will need a few new dresses for the heat. Thanks again for the helpful information 🙏
I'm watching this at 3:00 PM and now I'm so hungry and so motivated to cook tonight! Thanks Jennifer!
I think I've been using my lemon squeezer wrong also! ha ha
Everything looked so good! Great job sticking with your plan, that can be pretty hard to do for some reason. That’s what your son thought of your meal plan, haha! Thank you for sharing and inspiring me🌹
Thanks for sharing! All of the recipes looked delicious! Every time I hear ambrosia salad, it makes me think of Edward Scissorhands ☺️
I love all these dishes.
Meal planning is such a beneficial tool for homemakers! Thank you for the meal ideas!
Love these type of videos! Very helpful, thanks Jennifer!😀
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
That ambrosia salad looked so good! And those potato skins!!! YUM! I'll definitely be trying out some of these recipes. Thanks for sharing Jennifer :)
Your beans and rice looks fabulous! Your garden seems to be flourishing. Thank you for another inspiring video, Jennifer.
I love your meal videos. Full of ideas for delicious, practical meals. My grandmother also made ambrosia salad often as well as Waldorf salad. It's nice to see vintage recipes still in rotation!
Love these videos! Going to try all these recipes- the ambrosia salad I’ll make for church potluck.
Thank you to you and your daughter for sharing your recipes.
Beautiful food and a beautiful mama!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Cilantro is a cool weather herb. Ours grows all winter in zone 7b. Maybe try again this fall!
Thanks for the tip! We're in Portland, Oregon and I think that's our zone.
thank you! I needed this inspiration!! Mostly my hubby and me but son and family are in and out as well and are here for Sunday lunch after mass every week, always looking for something new to cook :) These all look great!
What am I making for dinners next week? Why everything YOU made for dinner this week! Can’t thank you enough! And the dessert appears to be gluten-free! Huge bonus for us! You rock. 🥰
All these meals look perfectly scrumptious, Jennifer! Thank you so much for them! I've been making chocolate ice cream lately and my family has been loving it.
I love 💗these videos Jennifer! Thank youuu
One min in clicked the link and made the hamburger helper 😂. It was Awesome!
The potato skins recipe looks yummy ..... so nice that your daughter loves cooking and at a young age. What a nice skill to have as she grows up
As usual loved all the meals❤️
I could watch your meal videos every day!
I will definitely try the black bean recipe! Excited to see a vegan option for my family ♥️
I LOVE this series!
Yummmm!!!! The potatoes and salad look so yummy! Your grandmother's salad recipe looks very yummy too! Thanks for sharing. I love how classy you are 🥰 God bless you.
Homemade Hamburger Helper is a favorite around here too! I STILL haven’t purchased the ground beef tool, but I think about it nearly every time I brown ground beef.
I agree that meal planning is a must. I do a weekly meal plan at our house, but sometimes I get stumped trying to think of what to make. My kids usually offer up the same suggestions when I ask for input. I appreciate videos like these for inspiration. Thank you!
I waited about a year before purchasing the ground beef tool, haha! But, I am glad I did because I like the mince to be even... that wasn't happening when I was just breaking it up with a spoon. Thanks for watching!
These meals look so amazing; I’m excited to try them out. Your food budget is so good for California too! I have boys and they eat so much. I always feel like I’m spending so much money on food!
Always looks so good! Thank you for the cooking inspiration.
your recipe looks so delicious. a pretty dish. I'm learning a lot. Your video makes me hungry. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.🤗
Hi Jennifer! As usual, this video was wonderful, thank you so much!! I can't wait to try all of the recipes!! Have a great weekend!! :)
Love this! So many good ideas. This week has been a bit of a struggle with eLearning and new routines. Having a good meal plan is so essential.
Thank you, Leah!
I love the meal planning videos. I cook with my kids. Every week we pick a new TH-cam recipe to try together. Some of my best memories are cooking with my Grandmother. We are going to try your ambrosia salad, but I will probably use plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. We use that on our tacos in place of sour cream too. Thanks for the inspiration! 💜
I love your meal videos because I always love finding new recipes to try!! We are making chicken piccata with capers for one of our meals, because of one of your videos with that dinner. ☺️
I made the Chicken Piccata too!
I love these videos! I have enjoyed fixing corn on the cob for my husband. Simple, but so nice when it's fresh, we enjoy it.
Can you do a video on your weekly lunch menu? Thanks! ❤️
I love your cooking videos. They're always so inspiring and such a pleasure to watch
Love all your homemaking videos.
I cant wait to make the ambrosia salad. My husband’s mother use to make this for him. Everything was just beautiful and so inspirational.
Thank You. I will definitely try the lemon pepper Chicken.
That abrosia salad looked so tasty! Brought back memories for me just seeing it. I love to make recipes from my childhood. I find them comforting.
I love ambrosia salad. My mother made it when I was growing up. I really like your headband♥️
I am really enjoying this series! It help seeing others stick to a budget and make delicious meals.
You look so beautiful. Thank you for the meal ideas!
Your recipes look delicious! I have been making Nikki's Dreamsicle salad on rotation this summer. My kids love it!
Healthy meal is the best 🌿🌱🍃🌿
Everything looked wonderful. I need to definitely try the homemade hamburger helper. I’m so jealous of your tomatoes. It’s hard to find a good tasty one in the store. Maybe next year I need to try my hand at a garden again. Tfs 😀
I loved this video seeing you in the kitchen! Thanks for the meal ideas! Yum!
Wow, Jennifer! You're almost at 100k! This calls for a celebration. xx
All of the meals look heavenly! I would add some butter, salt and pepper to those potatoes before all of the toppings. Trust me-divine!
black bean salad with tortilla chips; and tuna tostadas. these have been go to meals during the hot summer months and keep well for leftovers-nothing to heat up!
Lovely...as always. Happy to see the kids’ cookbook. That was by far one our favorite cookbooks for my girls.
I'm doing Keto so tonight was a Greek salad with feta and grilled chicken. Delish!
Great and EZ meal ideas. Hubby makes a great pizza using a prepared pizza shell and we also put leftovers on it and mozzarella cheese.
So love your videos and enjoy seeing your daughter involved in the food prep
Thank you for sharing! Usually my hubby isn't around when I watch videos like these. But today he was, and he's now wanting me to try a lot of these recipes. So excited, because we need new recipes in our weekly menu, and these are cheap too. Definitely have to try these out!! 💙💜
Great! I have another one coming out soon as well.
Your way of cooking is so nice , With nice back ground music along with garden fresh vegetables and your hands altogether it’s awesome
I too have wonderful memories of my grandmother’s ambrosia. 🥰 Hers was made from sections of oranges and their juice, fresh chopped pecans, and freshly grated coconut. That’s it! Heavenly :) ⛅️
Sounds great!
Your meals are always so delicious and healthy looking. I'm in the middle of a kitchen remodel, so I hope to be more inspired when I resume cooking in a couple (or 3) weeks! I also want to let you know that my new counter tops will be pure white, thanks to Ben! I loved them in your kitchen, and I can't wait to get mine. Although I was planning on a quartz counter top, I don't think that I would have thought of a solid white. But, after seeing yours, I was smitten. One more thing. I've had a lemon squeezer like your for years, and I've been doing it the wrong way too, apparently! So, another tip from you, Jennifer. Thank you for a wonderful channel, and I have all of your books, except for the one for children. I'm way past that age, and no grandchildren yet.
My mom use to put marshmallows on her salad too. Love it!
Thank you for sharing!
All I can say is YUM!
I've been using my citrus squeezer wrong! 🤣 I've had it for years too lol Delicious! Simple, healthy, family friendly :)
Taco soup is a family favorite!
We also make protein balls to save on granola bars!
Yum thanks for the dinner ideas. I’ll be making these vegan style 😊
Loved this!👩🍳 lol and your sense of humor as well☺ Cooking is so fun for me👩🍳 And your accessories always make you look extra chic, the headband animal print looks amazing to your outfit 💐 and the cilantro is hard to grow as it dies specially in summertime, grows better in the cold, as always great content, best regards
🥀. Miss. Lilly 🥀
Looks yummy
I love cilantro too, and I use it in almost all the meals I make!
I have been using Instacart delivery and I love it! I am working from home and it's really been nice to not have to go out. So worth it!!
Love these videos 🥰
Looks Great
You are always wonderfully inspiring 🙂🌺
I remember that ambrosia salad growing up! Everything looks delicious even though I'm a vegan! Thanks Jennifer 💐
Hey me too 👋🏻 have you tried the vegan chicken flavored “Better Than Bullion”? It’s really good! We could make the beans and rice recipe almost exactly.
@@Adnilas Hi, I haven't seen the vegan chicken one but I do use the vegetable one all of the time! Edward and Sons "not" chicken is really good.
Hello Jennifer, I enjoyed this video. Simplistic and comforting. Yummy looking recipes. Great resources. Thank you.
Hi! Jennifer God bless you and your beautiful family. I really enjoy this video and it does accomplished the purpose, very inspirational.💕🌹
Thank you for sharing 💖
I always feel like I have a much better week when I've taken the time to meal plan. Like you I use a recipe as a guide when cooking something new but always put my own spin on it so it goes down better with my family 👨👩👧👦
Made ambrosia w/ lemon pepper chicken tonight and rice & beans last night. Wow! Both are now in my rotation! Thanks!!!
One of our current favorite dinners is rice bowls. Everyone puts brown or white rice in their bowls, then tops it with grilled sliced chicken, chopped crispy back, avocados, shredded cheese, roasted vegetables, sliced onion, chopped tomatoes, pinto or black beans, etc, then salad dressing of your choice. Crowd pleaser!
I made your Homemade Hamburger Helper for my husband and myself- no children at home- and we thoroughly enjoyed it!!
Hi Jennifer,, I think the black bean dinner looked amazing. I’ll have to give this a try and oh my goodness, my Gramma used to make Ambrosia Salad. I always loved it with the exception of the shredded coconut she added. Loved this video. Enjoying the series.
Thank you, Denise!
Made the homemade “hamburger helper” for my family tonight. It was so good. Thank you for inspiring me to cook more yummy dinners.
I grew up eating ambrosia salad too (only at family gatherings, baptisms, or bbqs)! But our family's recipe was a little less healthy - way more marshmallows (and they had to be rainbow marshmallows), no coconut, canned fruit, and definitely sour cream! Best served the next day, when the marshmallows had a chance to get nice and soft. They would melt in your mouth! And I remember being so happy that it was served as part of the meal and not dessert. Love the idea of adding pineapple, I'll try that next time I make it. ;)
With the hamburger frying I always drain the grease and use a paper towel to dab the hamburger. Makes it more heart healthy
Please continue to make these meal prep videos Jennifer! You’ve given me a number of ideas for some simple meals.
Hi Jennifer! I’m really enjoying your cooking and meal plan videos please keep them coming!
Ps. Hairband really suits you ❤️
Marshmallows in a salad 😂 the most American thing I’ve ever heard of!
Lol!!
Salad should really have quotation marks around it. It's more like a dessert that you eat with your meal. The fact that it's called the salad lets you know that it really is from the fifties or sixties. 😆 We used to make one with Cool Whip, cottage cheese, sour cream, nuts, marshmallows, and any kind of red Jell-O powder. I can't imagine eating it now, but I used to love it. I've been paleo since about 2013, so there's very little in this video that I can eat, but I'm trying to get in the mood to meal plan. Jennifer makes it look easy.
Haha so truue 😄
The version I have been served is just canned fruit and whipped cream, not much sugar in it either ... Sometimes it was served as a dessert, and sometimes with cold ham and similar.
I think most people don’t actually understand the definition of the word “salad” which is why comments like this occur.
A salad is a dish consisting of pieces of food in a mixture, with at least one raw ingredient. It is often dressed, and is typically served at room temperature or chilled, though some (such as south German potato salad, or chicken salad) can be served warm.
“Salad” has become synonymous with “garden salad” or “green salad” which just isn’t so.
I imagined hamburger helper was a type of commercial seasoned breadcrumb. American food is so interesting.
Love Ambrosias!
I made the beans and rice today! Fast and delicious. It's a hit.
Yum 😋
