Hey my Bunkys im here you guys lift me up im still in my morning state its only been a like a little over a month since I lost my husband of 40 yrs you make my day when I see your videos keep them coming please you 2 make me happy..I love yall so so much...
You guys. IM A BUNKY TOO. My mom recently gave me a box of childhood things she had saved over the years. I found a card addressed to “bunky”. I asked my mom who that is and she said it’s what my grandma used to call me when I was little. I have zero memory of this but was very excited to share haha
They all looked delicious!! I was diagnosed with metastatic cancer and watching your vlogs fills my heart with joy and happiness. I love the rice and potatoes dishes. I'm going to try them. Sending blessings to you and your family and Daisy Mae. God bless the Bunky's.
yum all looked so good , but no i do not rinse my rice , never had , never will, but the rice dish , i have made many times , and hubby always like broccoli in it , so like the last 5 mins of cooking , i would cut up broccoli in small pieces and add it to the rice mix , was always a hit , so ty for sharing these side dishes !!!
Absolutely adding Harper’s dad and family to my prayer list! What a blessing that you got in touch with Harper and her mom and was able to share this! God bless you, sweet Stephanie for your kindness! ❤️🙏
I’ve been making rice and after it’s ready I add velveeta cheese and melt it in then top it with A1 steak sauce, I know it sounds crazy but I’ve made it since I was a teenager and I’m over 60 now, it’s so good, you gotta give it a try.
Oh my goodness, these all look so good! I can't wait to try them. I use my mandolin slicer often but when my husband bought it for me (I'm not the most graceful person..LOL) he bought me a Kevlar glove that he insists I wear when I use it. It's awesome! Now....I need to make some potatoes................
All of these look so delicious! I did get nervous when the mandolin came out because of Bunkey’s injuries from previous encounters with it. Thank you for sharing.
My favorite way to cook carrots is let them marinate in orange juice. Makes them sweet. They are so good! I love grocery hauls too! It’s weird, but I love them!
Who knew rice could be this exciting?!! ✨ This was such a fun episode... great recipes. Cannot wait to try these!!!! As always, thanks for sharing!! Much love 💕😊
The rice rinsing depends on 2 things. The recipe and the rice. We usually buy thai jasmine rice and steam it so we rinse it to remove the starch first. When we make Mexican rice which is browned first, we usually use mahatma or rice from the states which has a lot of the starch removed. We don't rinse that since we want it brown and toasty.
I can see your new candle warmer on the counter. After seeing your last video when you mentioned it, I immediately ordered one, and received it yesterday. I love it, thank you for sharing your great finds with us. Love all your videos. God Bless you both.
Rinse the rice always. Also, I see so many on TH-cam not even washing/cleaning the chicken fresh out of the package. You will be surprised at how clean vinegar water cleans the chicken. Trying the rice recipe.
If you add a little Franks hot sauce to the rice dish you made it brings it to a whole different level of perfection. I do the butter cheese and Franks with my rice but now I will also try it with the milk too. Great tip thanks
I can absolutely see how a little hot sauce would make it even better, we’ll have to keep that in mind! Thanks for the tip and we hope you have a wonderful week! ❤️
Happy Monday to my favorite YT couple😊😊 I loved all the side dishes, but the potatoes were the star of the show for me😊😊 I definitely will be making these.
Carrots are my favorite too! My dogs love them as well! Give Daisy some carrots!! Not only do I rinse my rice, at least 3 times, I then let it soak in the rice cooker 15 minutes prior to hitting start. Perfect every time!!
Great video from the Bunky's again! Yes, we rinse our rice several times and we always use Basmati. If you haven't tried it you need too. Those potatoes looked amazing! Have a great week🥰❤
My husband absolutely loves the skillet potato dish. I have made it several times and we both LOVE them!!! Thank you, I love your recipes and now that you are cooking healthier I love them even more. 🥰
Awww, thank you for sharing this with us! We’re trying to make small changes, and good food doesn’t have to be unhealthy! Hope you have a great week! 🤗❤️
Hi Jessica! You guys are adorable and even tho I feel I’ve cooked everything under the sun, I’ve found several recipes of yours that we’ve loved! You’re still so young but I can see you’ve got the knack and you’re already on your way to becoming an amazing cook!! Oh and pls tell Bunkey he needs to leave you be because there’s no such thing as exact measurements in cooking. LOL!! Baking is a whole other story but as long as you’re the one making dinner, keep cooking from your heart!! ❤️
Bunky always says he don’t like potatoes, but every time you make them he love these ha ha ha ha he’s so funny potatoes they are so versatile you can do so much with them
Omg my mouth is watering!! Jessica your reaction to those potatoes is perfect, I thought you were going to cry!! I would have. Also I've never bee a carrot person until I had them from someone who made them in the crock pot. Now I love them so I'll be making those along with the rice. I love rice and could eat it everyday. Hugs to you both and Daisy!! * L
Hello Bunkys, I watch Entertaining with Beth and she recommended the OXO mandolin because OXO items were created by someone with severe arthritis so they are made with great grip and I got it and now I'm not terrified to use my mandolin when the occasion calls for it. Just sharing.
These look great! I’ve done honey glazed carrots plenty of times but I might have to try your method. They look so good! Y’all with those potatoes! lol I could tell they were amazing with the way Bunkey put his arm around you after you took a bite….it was like a quiet recognition of how good they were. 😂
Oh my goodness! I want to try everyone of these. I love cooked carrots and I have done a pretty similar thing with fresh green beans, they are so yummy.. Those potatoes look delicious, you are right, time to invest in a good mandolin! Thank you for your inspiration
Hi Bunkeys I do to love watching grocery hauls😊 It helps me and my family also try new things to eat or eat that we’ve never tried be for yes I pre rinse my rice because my grandma always said too❤️👍
Rinse rice to wash away excess starch, making it fluffy not gummy sticky. This coming from an Asian mom😊

Blessings coming your way.
We will be praying for you!!
Cute Dog😍🤩💜💞💜
Rinsing the starch off rice helps keep it from sticking together and makes a fluffier rice.
yum all looked so good , but no i do not rinse my rice , never had , never will, but the rice dish , i have made many times , and hubby always like broccoli in it , so like the last 5 mins of cooking , i would cut up broccoli in small pieces and add it to the rice mix , was always a hit , so ty for sharing these side dishes !!!
😋 Love the suggestion about adding broccoli at the end! ❤️
I absolutely rinse my rice.
Absolutely adding Harper’s dad and family to my prayer list! What a blessing that you got in touch with Harper and her mom and was able to share this! God bless you, sweet Stephanie for your kindness! ❤️🙏
I soak my basmati for 15 min and then rinse till water is clear like potatoes it pulls a lot of the starch out, and makes an amazing fried rice.
I’ve been making rice and after it’s ready I add velveeta cheese and melt it in then top it with A1 steak sauce, I know it sounds crazy but I’ve made it since I was a teenager and I’m over 60 now, it’s so good, you gotta give it a try.
Like it!
I do this exact same thing on a baked potato! Its an amazing combo of flavor!
We’ll have to try that sometime!
I rinse my rice when I think about it. Rinsing is actually better because it removes the starch from the rice
I absolutely love carrots especially cooked. I especially love the rainbow carrots
Oh yes!
Lol!! The music when he gets out the mandoline! I'm dying!
My mouth was watering the entire time. The all looked delicious.
Thank you 😋
Oh my goodness, these all look so good! I can't wait to try them.

Love watching you and your husband
I’ll be fixing the scalloped potatoes for sure with the fresh cube steak for my husband this weekend! OMG. I can’t wait .

Rinse the rice always. Also, I see so many on TH-cam not even washing/cleaning the chicken fresh out of the package. You will be surprised at how clean vinegar water cleans the chicken. Trying the rice recipe.
The FDA recommends NOT washing or rinsing raw chicken.

Also I love and use the Banza pastas .
You two keep me in stitches… you totally make my day. 😁😁😁

Bio-accessible arsenic is found in rice so it’s a good idea to always wash your rice before cooking to help get rid of it.
Definitely rinse the rice.
