Links are affiliate links, but I will only recommend items I LOVE and use daily with no extra cost to you, and it helps support the channel! Thank you for your support!
I know this will just get lost in the sea of comments but,, I'm a teenage girl and I have autism so I constantly feel like an inconvenience to my family. but your videos have taught me so much, and I've been inspired to do things like dry parsley from my little herb garden & turn it into parsley powder (which people have been using!!) or bake fresh bread! your videos inspire me to be more self sufficient. I have becomr interested in things like canning and preserving and I've loved plants & gardened for years but this year is the first time I'm trying to grow tomatoes from seedlings. they're getting so big 🌱
plus, these videos are just such a comfort. they're really nice to watch when I'm overwhelmbed. so thank you :-)
You are not an inconvenience to your family, you are a blessing. You should be proud of all your accomplishments, I cannot grow anything from seed so well done.xx
Do you have seeds? I would love to send you some if you dont!
Good for you! I have worked with people with disabilities for over 35 years. Keep watching Becky and you will learn a lot.
You are not an inconvenience! You are amazing. I have three children with autism and they are my blessings. Neurodiversity comes with so many strengths, I know you must have so many strengths x
How exciting, great idea with the parsley powder,! Sorry to hear you feel like a inconvenience,I hope no one really feels like you are! Please express this and see if maybe they are not feeling this way.? I know I don't feel anything but love from my autistic niece. 😊
Hey Becky - Just wanted to comment on the 'extra' cinnamon sugar you transferred into a mason jar for future use, and then put in an unrefrigerated drawer. Given you used it to roll raw cookie dough balls in I just thought it prudent to mention the cross contamination (raw egg, uncooked wet flour, etc.) that has now been in contact with the whole batch of cinnamon sugar.
I often have left over cinnamon sugar when I make chocolate ginger cookies or snickerdoodles and as someone who doesn't like to waste ingredients, I will take the extra and store it in the freezer, as a way for me to be able to use it safely on the next batch of cookies.
Know I mention this not as a criticism but just for your safety. =)
I thought the same thing.
suggestion: before juicing your citrus, zest it first. Freeze dry or freeze the zest to have on hand for future projects - like marinades :)
What a good idea!
That is a great idea! I thought, oh, she doesn't need the zest...but yeah, freeze it for another time!
This is brilliant! Thank you 🤗
Thank you!!!
I also like to take those little lemon leftovers from the juicer and use it for lemon water! 😊
You have made the statement true that you are never too old to learn. I am 70 years old and with every video of yours I learn
something new. I really appreciate you and thank God that HE sent you to me because you are a blessing. Love your family as they are wonderful people so friendly and kind. Kindness is hard to find nowadays but I see it every time I watch one of your videos.
yes, Amen Becky brings a light to my day.
C A Shepard. I'm 69 this year and I'm with you. Glad to know we can learn from the younger generation. Yes, she is very good at what she does. She is a gold mine of information for so young.
86 and still learning!
When we had a new deck built, I put out cookies/zucchini bars and lemonade for the workers and they really enjoyed the treats. Way to show your appreciation for a job well done, Becky!
Ohhh, what are zucchini bars?! They sound delicious!
@@krystlereese2543 they are!!
@@krystlereese2543 Maybe instead of making zucchini bread she makes becky makes cookie bars.
I hope she sent the recipe in a private message.
Becky has inspired me in so many ways. Gifting the workers with home baked cookies was so heartwarming. So, today I gifted the workers from our county water district who were replacing the main water system on our street. I gave them home baked cookies. I love spreading the joy!
Awesome!!
I can't seem to be able to dedicate a day/time to make freezer meals.... but, Becky has inspired me to start doubling or tripling recipes so we can have one for dinner and 1 or 2 to freeze and it takes almost the same time to make 1 as it does to make 3! We've found a couple casseroles that are EXTREMELY forgiving, can use up some stuff we have on hand and they freeze great!
Thank you for sharing a peak inside your life with us. Also, I am sorry that you have haters. How anyone could make assumptions about you and Josh with the 30-60 mins glimpses inside your home is absolutely absurd. Like they personally know you from watching small moments in your life. Those of us that enjoy your videos appreciate your open and honest personality, Thank you!! Keep being you. You have pushed me to try things I thought I could never do and you make it look easy. I am a more advanced cook, gardener and food prepper and again I thank you. Much love ❤️ and respect.
How can anyone hate Becky?! She is the sweetest person ever! She is a wealth of knowledge. I am happy that I found her channel!
Why would anyone hate on Becky! Must be just to get clicks.
I think they are either jealous of her meteoric rise in subscribers, or they are prompted or paid by another content creator. The same people keep making rude and critical comments.
Just a couple of days ago I clicked on a link things it was a Acre Homestead video. It was not, and the whole concept was ignorant and petty. As I pointed out to the poster, I will never understand why folks want to spend their time and energy hating, tearing ppl down, and criticizing. All over extremely small petty things. That is certainly not what Becky does. Becky stays in her lane. She "lives" life. She walks the walk, and shares what she loves with the rest of us. She has blessed me in so many ways., and I am ever so grateful. Hopefully our appreciation and our voices of thanks will drown out the negative. Hugs
There are forums that like to tear down all the TH-camrs I watch. All stems from jealousy and a little bit of Karen’s. Same girls that are bullies in real life. They have no self worth and get a kick out of tearing others down. Becky and the others can laugh all the way to the bank. I enjoy her videos and I don’t really watch to recreate anything people do in their videos. I just find these videos relaxing. Sometimes they give inspiration to try something new, but mostly because there is nothing decent on TV.
I was today years old when I learned there was such a thing as hawaiian macaroni salad. It looks and sounds amazing!
I don’t understand why it’s called “Hawaiian”…….I was expecting pineapple in it….😂😂🤣🤣. But I love this girl’s cooking and baking….she inspires me to get off the couch, take a break from crocheting and make something…..however, I can only do one thing at a time, clean up and then start on the next thing….🤣. I don’t multitask……..
I'm so happy that I found your channel!! So inspiring! Thank you so much. I am a 59 year old empty nester and I am finally going to own my own home! I will be doing a lot of this. So excited!
Congrats❤
That’s so exciting! Congratulations!
@@mountaincreekhomestead You just freeze smaller portions 😉
Thank you for sharing your recipes. A lot of TH-camrs put them behind a pay wall. I’m 75, on a fixed income and I’m trying to cook with more fresh ingredients for my husband and I to aide in keeping us as healthy as possible. Found your channel almost from your beginning and have been following ever since. My husband is the gardener and I am the cook😊
I am so inspired by Becky in so many ways, especially gifting the workers homebaked cookies.
I just gifted the workers on my street a bag of cookies baked with love.
I lived in Hawaii a long time. Put the onions, carrots (grate on smallest size) and vinegar on while it's hot. LET COOL to room temp, then add the milk and mayo with your seasoning. Best ever! Mahalo
Is there a substitute for mayo?
@@traceyray6498 I sometimes use sour cream in place of mayo
Maybe greek yogurt would be okay? Just add a little more salt. Let us all know what you do and how it turns out!
I thought the milk and mayo was a lil early. I use gluten free pasta and add a lil heat.
Thank you for commenting It looked like she put the mayo on the warm noodles, I was going to ask for clarification.
My husband is a retired coal miner, and NOT adventurous with his food, so I enjoy watching you cook so many different recipes! I can and do pick some side dishes you fix... for myself! Love your channel!
Where was he a miner at, meaning what state are you in??
I also have a picky eater❤
I have said this before but your landscapers will never want to work anywhere else with all the delicious cookies you have shared with them. I always enjoy your recipes and meal prep ideas.
I manage construction worker teams... She’s extremely nice to them, but seeing the kind of tricky slope and attention to detail she and her husband have, i’m sure they might like to go to an easier job next time. Alternate hard jobs you’re proud of and easier jobs keeps my teams’ morale up
I love seeing the dogs walking around while you're in the kitchen...they're so adorable 🥰
I'd love to see homemade treats for them! My dogs love carrots, peppers, broccoli, green beans and spinach. They love getting a taste too when we are cooking. They get to eat what we are eating which is mostly vegetables since we don't usually eat meat. They get their dry dog food with a sampling of what we had on top. Our dogs over the years have even enjoyed salads which upset my husband's grandmother! She told everyone that my dogs ate salad. My aunt always had dachshunds and was told to get them to eat salads and vegetables for their joints. My current dogs do not like salad or tomatoes and will pick them out of everything.
If you have a banana, put it in a brown paper bag along with your avocado, close the bag and leave it overnight. The time it takes to ripen depends on how underripe your avocado is. The ethylene gas produced by the banana is trapped in the bag and speeds up the ripening of other fruit.
I have also heard you can do the same with an apple.
that is so cool to know! Thank you!
You don’t need any other fruit in the bag. An avocado in a paper bag overnight will ripen.
I peel a ton of ginger and blend it with a little water and freeze in once cube trays. Then bag up. It’s so nice to add a cube to different Asian recipes, or just to a smoothie
That is a great idea. I have been buying my ginger from Trader Joe’s in the frozen section, it is already peeled and in cubes. They also have garlic like that as well.
I used to slice lemons, to get the seeds out. Then blend the whole thing and put in ice cube trays. I would put one w about a half cup water and drink it. (Remember to brush your teeth)or put a cube in a drink, great in Crystal light.
You can also just toss the whole root into the freezer and just pull it out and grate it frozen. You don't even need to peel it as long as you wash it first.
I saw on tik Tok blending ginger lemon and honey and then freezing that in Cubes you can add that to water and have tea
@@ryanamari2233 that sounds good!!
Becky I place the root ends from green onions into a shallow dish. I plant them and I have green onions all summer, I just use a knife to slice the onions. It’s so much fun.
Becky I'm not sure if I saw this correctly, but may I suggest that if you make extra cinnamon and sugar to store that you separate it out before you roll cookie dough with raw eggs and butter in it.
She's such an amazing cook, but yeah, her food safety decisions stress me out as someone who has had food safety certification and education. 😅 I just tell myself that it's her kitchen and that it's one more reason why I try to make as much of our food as reasonably possible.
I did some meal prep yesterday all inspired by you! Sausage and egg biscuits for the freezer, no knead bread, 3 pounds of cooked ground beef in the freezer, and washed produce ready to eat in the fridge. Today I went to Costco and bought some things I am packaging up to store in the freezer while I watch this video! I already have cookie dough in the freezer thanks to you too.
You’re a rock star!
RIGHT!? I got a Cosco Membership because of Becky. Cosco is my Jam now 🙌🏾
We were out camping and had some cowboy caviar and left over pasta. We mixed the two together and it made a wonderful pasta salad.
Thank you Becky for spending time with Becky’s Bunch. We just love you and I’m always amazed that I learn something just about every video. Btw I’m a 72 year old great grandma (aka GiGi):
I love cowboy caviar. It is the perfect warm weather salad. My recipe calls for blackeyed peas along with the black beans. I recently introduced it to my group of friends, and now I am required to bring it to all game nights.
Thanks for another awesome video Becky! You are always so full of wonderful positive energy! I wish you and your beautiful family all the best!
As long as you wash it well, you don't really have to peel ginger if you're going to grate it or slice it. The skin is perfectly safe and unnoticeable in any recipe you make.
yes, I saw this at one of the cooking channels and it's been such a great discovery
I did not know this thank you for sharing
I have never peeled ginger. I just wash with veggie brush I use for carrots and potatoes.
Awesome! I hate peeling ginger.
I didn’t know people ever peeled it I never have and have made dried grated and even powdered ginger 😂
Becky you make meal prep so easy. I know practice makes it alot easier. I'm slowly learning little by little!!! Can't wait until the plants are in the ground!! BTW I love the garden updates
When juicing your lemons, squeeze both sides to extract all the juice! 😊
Thats what her mom said in the last video. I guess Becky forgot 😅
Her videos are not always in order. She also said somewhere in the last few videos about how she read in the comments not to “sharpen” the knife over the board and that it’s not a sharpener but a straightener. But we see her do it in this video.
So true! Same with any citrus!
@@Ceruleanozoid I saw that as well.
I bet the landscapers are working really slowly so they can enjoy Becky's cookies longer!
Are you slandering them ?
@@TheEmbrio it's a joke.
❤😂lol you are exactly right
You 😅 got that right 👍
she said a (whopping) two cookies each
So do u think workers are gonna have withdrawls from cookies? They gonna talk about u for a l9ng time--CookieLady
One thing they will miss !
🤣 Becky will become a legend.
@Carmen Doyle When I had some work on my house I fed the workers. That is true what Becky is doing. They are going to remember because the worker said not everybody shows such great appreciation. But hopefully Becky is inspiring other people to maybe do these things for people that come to their home.
We had a friend make cookies for workers when they added a new porch on their home - such a simple offering, and the construction crew almost hated for the project to come to an end! LOL
I know not everyone does this, perhaps a bit of an older etiquette, but I thought it was just good or appropriate manners to offer visitors and trade people something when at your house. On a hot day, make sure you provide cold water, cookies, maybe a bit of fruit, to refresh. A little treat for the babysitter. A simple cup of tea.
The bonus for trade is that they may be more likely to do a better job, be inclined to help you with something and feel good about their day. It may help with a future endeavor. Isn't it nice to make someone's day a bit brighter; think what they may do for someone else.
Cookie Queen - landscapers will Never want to leave the job! How many employers go to the trouble of making home made anything! I'm sure they appreciate you & feel special.
Another video with some great tips. I get my Korean chili flakes at one of our local Asian markets in Vancouver. They have tons of interesting flavors, noodles and vegies to use in your cooking. I make lots of Kim Chi and use their Thai basil in salads and pesto. I really recommend exploring ethnic markets -- middle eastern, Ukrainian and Hispanic. One of the perks of living in a diverse community.
KITCHEN TIP: Save citrus rinds and run them through your garbage disposal. The citrus juice and oils will cut through and loosen all the gunk in your disposal. You will have a citrus scented kitchen and a clean disposal! BTW, the citrus rinds will help sharpen your disposal blades. You can also use the citrus rinds with white vinegar to make your own spray cleaner. Just soak the citrus rinds in the vinegar for two weeks or more, strain and add half mixture and half water to to a spray bottle.
I love the way your new lids look on your spice jars--so much that I just ordered some.
I have to definitely try that cowboy candy salad.....I think every time I see Becky open up her wall oven "how long will it take for her to realize she left foil in that back of the oven" LOL ... I just love this girl so much! 🙂
That is so sweet that you made cookies for the landscapers! All of the food you made looks amazing!
I’m so thankful my daughters chickens are laying again there’s nothing like farm fresh eggs
Totally agree I loved the richer taste and gorgeous colour when I had my girls
Hey Becky! I have been a long time fan & have learned so much from your videos. My confidence in canning, prepping food ahead of time for my future self, and having a growing stock of food for my family have all been life changing. Your videos make me feel like I have a friend to hang out with while my husband is at work, which has been so needed as a stay at home mom. You have inspired me to share my story with others here on TH-cam too and it’s already helping me find more community. I couldn’t thank you enough for all that you give to me, it’s so much more than content💛
Becky, I have to tell you I made that Hawaiian Mac Salad for a family bbq last weekend. They ate it all up! I even doubled the recipe! My sister-in-law said it tastes just like the mac salad at their favorite Hawaiian restaurant (in WA state). It was very simple to make & SO yummy! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Becky. I keep my fresh raw ginger whole in freezer. Then when I want some I just micro plane as mush as I want. It grates up just fine frozen. Pop the rest back in freezer for next time. If you have thick skin or particularly don’t want any skin bits. Just peel before you freeze it. 🌸
My adult son is now totally hooked on snicker doodles!! Lemon zest really makes them extra special
I have been making Sniickerdoodles for 50 years when I found a Good Housekeeping recipe. I was intrigued by the name and its been a favorite family cookie ever since.
I think cardamom would be a great replacement for snickerdoodles. I make a cardamom sugar for palmiers and everyone goes crazy for them. I had no idea a cinnamon allergy was that common.
Yum!
That sounds yummy, can i get your recipe?
@@tammymanuel9158 I use the cardamom caramel palmiers recipe from Serious Eats. It’s really really good and looks impressive for how easy they are to make. I go a little heavier on the cardamom then the recipe calls for.
@@palmofmars cool thank you. I am gonna look it up and try them.
I put cardamom in when I make orange “cinnamon” rolls. It’s an underrated spice in most American households
I love that you not only feed you body with what you raise and grow but you also feed your soul with the beautiful flowers you grow. 🌷🌻💐
I LOVE cowboy caviar!! sometimes I eat a hug bowl of it as my meal. A perfect spring/summer staple for sure!!
Big no no on storing the excess cinnamon sugar after rolling the cookies in it.
Raw eggs where in the cookies touching all the sugar and cinnamon.
Cross contamination could cause you to become very ill with future use.😝
A Sunday with Becky, that’s a win ! Love grilling chicken, so much better ❤
Suggestion: sharpen and hone your knives over a surface your not cutting your food on. There are specs of metal that come off and you don’t want that in your food. Love your videos!
@acrehomestead Becky in the south for cowboy caviar we use black eye peas instead of black beans. Totally different flavor!!!! U should try the black eyed peas instead next time you make the cowboy caviar!!!!
I do cinnamon sugar using brown sugar instead of white sugar. I do have to put it in my blender and pulse it just a few times because it doesn’t mix easy like white sugar does with the cinnamon. Then I store it in a my spice jar. The brown sugar is a game changer if you love cinnamon sugar!!
Becky, tonight we tried your Cowboy Caviar WOW!! is that amazing! It is very similar to a Texas Caviar that I have made for years, however the fresh lemon really takes it over the top. That you so much for sharing your recipes and being such a positive person! I appreciate you!
Thank you for taking the time out of YOUR day to make the videos for us to watch
That’s very nice of you though it is her way to make a living
You have helped me with that phrase. I now procrastinate less when when I consider how much future me will appreciate it.
The snickerdoodles are so delicious. I made these for my family and absolutely love them.
I noticed in your video that you have a piece of foil in the back of your oven. 🙂
I was always wondering why it’s always there
Becky, I love your positive attitude and honesty! You are amazing!
One of my favorite variations of Cinnamon Rolls: Use Clove and Ginger instead of Cinnamon, and instead of an icing topping, I just use Honey as a glaze. It gives that seasonal spice and sweet and they are delicious! I am not allergic to Cinnamon, but I made this one time when I was out of Cinnamon and became my favorite way to make them since.
Better Texas Cavier Ingredients:
Dressing: ACV, EVOO, Sugar/honey
Black eyed peas (essential to the historical recipe), Black Beans, Red Onion, Green Chili's, Pimentos, White Shoepeg Corn, Multi-color bell peppers
I wouldn't use the fresh tomato or avocado because it would really limit the shelf life, or I'd only put that in what could be consumed in that setting.
Love that you treat your landscapers!!❤
I made brown sugar for the first time today. It's made a huge difference in my baked end product! So much better than store bought 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for sharing your recipe ❤
I made my own the other day too. Loved it. I did have trouble with my molasses clumping up in my sugar though. Any suggestions? Not sure what I did wrong. It was still good but some clumps remain. :(
Homemade brown sugar makes everything extra gourmet. I just made B'B'Q sauce with homemade brown sugar and it's the best.
Make it in a food processor and process until smooth.
@@indy5galI use my stand mixer with the wire whip and use a rubber spatula to clean the sides of the bowl a few times during the process. It takes a little while, but it’s worth it.
Love the new jar lids.
Thank you Becky. I just love it when you are on.
Thanks for the recipes! You got me motivated today! 😊 your spice jars look awesome btw!
Becky I think you should discard that cinnamon sugar because you rolled the raw dough in all of it and bits the dough remained in the mixture.
This bothered me too. Usually you use cinnamon sugar in baking so maybe if she put it in freezer it would be okay but definitely not in the cabinet 😬
Thank you Becky I enjoy all your vlogs so much. You're so real. Take care. Enjoy your weekend. 😊
Love the new kitchen knobs. Looks great.❤
I get soo excited when Becky upload a video loving ❤️ it... Much love for us in North Carolina 😻
Oh the cowboy salad looked like summer! The food looked so good today. Hope you enjoy your weekend with your family. Blessings from Kentucky.
You are so awesome Becky! Thanks for your recipes, techniques, and just for being there for us who love you so much!
Becky, I make my dressing for almost all of my salad type meals.( macaroni salad, potato salad, ect) . Mix your mayo, dalt and pepper, sugar, and vinegar in the bowl before you add all your other ingredients. You can taste as you as you go.
Thank you becky for all you do for us
One tip for ginger. You can freeze it whole and than grate iz as needed with the skins. Freezing it makes it way easier to grate and you have it on hand when needed. This trick changed my ginger game!😊
Another great video Becky! Yes - grilling season will soon start on the East Coast with winter behind us!!🥰
You have a way of cooking that makes so much sense. Curious as to why there is tin foil in the back of your wall oven?
That cowboy salad makes me so excited for summer harvest!
Yay I’m in the kitchen today watching you in the kitchen!!! I’m making homemade Italian sauce and meatballs
You always put out great videos with interesting content! I am excited to soon see you enjoying your garden!
Becky I too love to eat and I’m so excited to start gardening this this year. You inspire me so much! I love your videos and love your content. ❤
becky -- lemon squeezing tip -- after you squeeze them cut side down turn them over -- cut side up and you will be surprised how much more juice you get out of your lemon halves!! :)
I've made that cowboy caviar before as a dip. Then mixed the leftovers in with cornbread and baked. It was so good!
Thanks again for sharing Becky! Love your videos.😊
I’m knew too your channel and I’m so loving everything about you and your family thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼
I actually grilled marinated chicken from the freezer and your hawaiian mac salad yesterday. So delicious.
I love and look forward to watching your videos!! You are my relaxation! Can't wait to see your garden. I'm so excited for you and Josh!! Ohh yeah just a tip I've learned from my dad growing up for your grill when you light it get it HOT, then take half an onion and clean the grates with it. Not only cleans, seasons, and adds great flavor! Yummm
So enjoy watching your videos!! Thanks
As always, Becky, everything looks so delicious! Thank you so much for sharing a tiny little bit of your daily life. I always enjoy your videos.
I also live in the Portland, Oregon area and I grow my own ginger every year. Freshly harvested ginger is amazing. At the end of the season I freeze it and it's ready to grate and use when ever I want 'fresh' ginger. Lots of videos out there on how to grow in garden.
Becky, I tried freezing the ends and peels for stock and it turned out so nice.. Never thought of this.. So thank you..
Me too!!! Thank you Becky!
Love ❤️ seeing the spice lids and the oil decanter. Also, the new pulls for your cabinets!
Becky check the back of your wall oven there is a large piece of foil stuck in the back. Eveything looks yummy as always.
I love that lid on the pepper flakes!
I am really appreciating the artistic touches in your videos lately. That two second bit of you putting away your new gorgeously-lidded jars. So nice!
Another great video. You inspired me to not be afraid of seasoning, I always thought I was adding too much this or that but it turns out just perfect. I’m gonna try the salads, they look delicious.
Hey Becky, I just watched a video from Chef Rick Bayless and he said if you chop or shred an onion you create a sulfurous compound that will sour or spoil a salad,or a guacamole . It is the compound that creates onion breath or indigestion. He suggested to put the cut or shredded onion in a small strainer and run them under water before adding them to your recipe.
Great tip will have to try that thanks Paula
Good to know
Love Rick Bayless! I have two of his cookbooks!
I bought a shaker with a lid and make the cinnamon sugar for it. That way we can sprinkle on baked apples or dessert or cookies and oatmeal etc. And it’s always ready in my spice cupboard
I use it on toast all the time, I then dip my toast in hot chocolate. It's the best!!!!!❤
I loved watching you cook in your kitchen.
Love your videos, especially food pre freezer meals. Lucky landscaper ❤
Becky, everything looks delicious. Thank you for sharing the recipes.
Becky I learned to make ginger paste in bulk and freeze as you do the garlic pucks. I also make garlic, ginger, onion paste. YT the subject to get the Indian cooking shows how to make the pastes. Game changer for all sorts of meals. Generally I stuck to garlic ginger paste and add my onions cause I enjoy texture of chopped or slice onion.
You are a special person. You are good to everyone 😊
Everything looks fabulous! I also love that you gave the tip about not using your knife to keep it from getting dull. You also said in another video about wiping off your knife after honing so as not to get shavings in the food. All of this information is really good for new cooks as well as reminders to those of us that have cooked for awhile. Always teaching. And I see that you also have a Cutco knife. I bought a set when I was 21 and they are still going strong and I'm 70!
Those dishes looked and sounded amazing. I can't wait to see the garden. I've been trying to keep up with you on IG. You're one busy woman!! ❤
