AS A SENIOR, I MISS MY OLD FAMILY RECIPES FOR A LARGER FAMILY. STOPPED COOKING THEM BECAUSE TOO WASTEFUL FOR ONE PERSON. COOKING THEM AGAIN NOW DOING THE FREEZER MEALS. SUCH A GREAT IDEA. NO WASTE, LESS CLEANUP, HANDY ON BUSY DAYS AND GREAT FOR WHEN COMPANY STOPS BY.
My mother ate out for a couple years after my dad passed away. Finally she started cooking again and freezing things in one-serving containers. She would just go out to the freezer each day and decide what she wanted for dinner. She always had a nice selection of meals and so economical and tasty.
All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! I love watching your videos, my friend! How blessed your husband and children are, and I'm sure they are very aware! God bless you, sweet lady.
I just ran across your channel today. I find it not only informative but very calming. I felt like I was sitting with my neighbor in her kitchen. I look forward to watching more.
Love watching your videos Abby Jo! Your peace and calmness is a welcome change in this busy CZcams world. I love that you're providing a different approach to the 'get everything done' mentality. You are a blessing!
Just getting to sit down and watch. I just love how you waste nothing and think out of the box to come up with delicious meals. Thank you for the meal ideas.
You made making pizza dough and pie crust look not so intimidating I’m going to have to give both a try this coming week. Thank you for keeping the background music gentle it adds to the peacefulness of your channel.
I’m so glad to hear that, it really just takes a little practice and you will be a pro in no time. That’s what I love about cooking you just do it and you get better and more confident ❤️
I'm only half way through the video, first time watching you and I'm inspired to make a whole batch of freezer meals. You're so very calm and easy to watch and listen to. Thanks.
You certainly make the prettiest quiches . What a beautiful stock up of easy meals . I love that you do this. I must do the pourable top for my Pies again, I'd forgotten about it. Happy Spring darlings ❤❤❤❤
I’m sure you hear this often, but watching you cook and hearing your voice is just heavenly! You have the most relaxing, beautiful videos and your background music is just so peaceful. I have learned so much! Thank you!
Hi Abby Jo, thank you for sharing with us today, you are busy! Feeding the family makes my heart sing. I'm a feeder i like feeding friends and family with homemade goods. Onions onions onions... I often tell people that the best way to peel and chop is to leave the 'hairy' end on, this is the part that makes us cry! lol Thank you again..
I stock my freezer with cooked chopped chicken (made from cooking two whole chickens), uncooked mini meatloaves, pre-cooked beans, pre-cooked rice, shaped raw hamburgers (usually seasoned sometimes not), and shredded cheese (block of cheese shredded at home tastes better than pre-shred from the store).
I have not even watched this video but am posting because I read through several comments and they are super encouraging but more than that I love that you take the time to respond - I know that can’t be easy as it’s time consuming. But sight unseen I am going to subscribe to your channel - there’s a few other CZcamsrs that got me started on freezer meals and canning (and I thank God for all that I’ve learned from them) but they’ve become time wasters for me as they are posting longer and longer videos on almost everyday :o it’s time for me to move on. I thought about dropping you tube altogether but I’ve learned so much over the past couple of years and I don’t want to give up the education. I am excited to watch this video and anything else you have to share :)
My family LOVES the million dollar spaghetti. So I’ll make up about 6 and they’ll be gone in no time. That’s their go to when I’m working nights. I also like to make squash casserole since it’s a little time consuming to just make on a week night. Enchiladas (white chicken and seafood) are their favorites. I can’t wait to try the honey garlic chicken. Thanks so much for posting the recipe
Such wonderful ideas. Your videos are so inspiring and peaceful. I really enjoy watching, especially after a stressful work week. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos to share with us.
I never thought about freezing pizza dough - great idea. Thank you for sharing. I had to have an unexpected hip replacement this past September - I had a week to get ready - I froze quite a few meals - it gave me much peace to be able to have meals for my family. I am looking forward to trying some of your meals for the future. Thank you for sharing.
Just love to watch all your cooking of freezer & everyday meals! I will be married 50 years in November & honestly never cared for enchiladas but… after watching your prep & ingredients I will definitely try this! Your calming voice & demeanor is such a joy- you can always tell you so enjoy what you do! 💝🎶 I have always loved cooking & baking & it has to come for I’m the heart! I think my favorite appliances have to be my KitchenAide & that good ole Instapot LOVE them!😊
Today I had a go at making your quiche recipe and it turned out so nice and the pastry is perfect, so easy to roll and easy to make. Think I might try the chilli recipe next. Thank you.
My husband & I took 2 hrs(we are in our 60’s & slow) to make up beef, bean & cheese burritos. We ended up having those for supper with some salsa, queso, & white cheddar, baked in a casserole dish. Since we had the tortilla’s out, we threw some bacon in the oven & a tray of 18 beaten eggs for bacon egg & cheese breakfast muffins. We also did some sausage patty for some too. We bagged up about a lb. of bacon for BLT’s later on. We scrambled up 18 more eggs & cut up another lb of bacon & shredded cheese for bacon egg & cheese breakfast burritos. Breakfast items at our house are our go to for a snack for after work or after school for the grandkids. We are raising 2 of our grandkids as my daughter passed 6 yrs ago from cancer. And although this amount of food would of lasted the two of us a good long time 6 yrs ago. It doesn’t go very far now! The grandkids are 9 & 16. And it’s rare that we don’t have more than just us eating. I think the quiche would be a great idea! And feed a crowd, with some leftovers for my husband to take to work. Any other quick & easy recipes that freeze well. Or dump & go recipes would be appreciated. Thanks for all your great ideas!😁
Your family is so fortunate to have you! Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I can’t watch too many “cooking” videos because some tend to talk way too much and I find myself yelling “just get to it already”!! Lol. But seriously, you are very calming and pleasant to watch.
Ah, thank you for this inspiration. I have a big family and even though I love to cook and to big batch freeze, I’ve been in a rut. In other words, Mother Hubbards cupboard is a little bare. 😅 This got me excited to dive in with your chicken recipe and the pizza dough. Thank you again! 🙏🏻❤
Your pour over batter for casseroles is the best ever. I don’t use anything else for casseroles. Big thank you for that. And thanks for the freezer meal ideas.
I found you blog here and then some how you tube lost it I subscribed again hoping I don't lose you again. I love these freezer meals you do. things that my family will eat some do all these fancy meals and we dont eat that way we old country folks lol
Abby Jo I love your freezer meals video. I will start a list of all I need to get for the meals. The day before I like to chop the onions cook the bacon and do what I can to get ready for the day I cook. Thanks so much.
I do that sometimes too, but since starting to film our freezer meals days I like to show the whole process. But that’s really a good thing to do 👍 saves you time ❤️
Your food looks very delicious and you make it look like mixing up pie dough is an easy feat. I can't make it very well. I may try your recipe and will go watch the video you suggested. I love your freezer meal cooking day videos.
I’ve never done a freezer meal day but after watching this video I’m inspired! I think I’ll do some meatballs and quiche. I have spaghetti meat sauce and pizza crusts in the freezer now.
Thank you, really enjoyed watching you prepare these freezer meals, like the good straightforward recipes always reliable, & can adapt to ones taste etc, been inspirational, watching from the UK 👏👏🌟🥞🍕🌮🥩🍽😋😋🎉
So thankful for your videos. I am so encouraged by them. This is a great help to me to make the freezer meals and have helped me on busy days to be able to slow down knowing a meal is in the freezer. Thank you soooo much for sharing with us.
Loved this freezer meal video, you had a nice variety of meals. I haven't done any freezer meal preps, but you are motivating to do so. Lol Thanks for sharing and God bless you in all that you do. ❤💕❤
Thank you Abby Jo! I always feel good with things in the freezer, for the times when you’re on the go. I went to yesterday blog for a friend of your recipes, thank you!❤
I am watching now, but wanted to tell you I made two yogurt french cakes and they are so good! I froze one. Thank you for that recipe! I just struggled a bit with cooking time because of my oven it needs 6-8 minutes more.
hello from Norway! I dont see you use fish in your freezer meals? just thought ill give you a great recepie for norwegian fish gratin. for this i use frosen white fish. any will do, choose a frosen and cheap one. i partly defrost it, just so i can cut it into chunks. boil macaroni, make a bechamel sause and add egg yolks. in a a freezerfriendly container blend the macaroni, bechamel, fish and a few frozen vegitables (carots, peas, corn,spring onion, what you like). wisk the egg whites until stiff and spred it ontop of the fish and macaroni mixture. add bread crumbs on top. now it can be frozen. when i serve it i like to add a bit of melted butter and maybe some dill. hope youll enjoy😊
I love fish, and I’m Norwegian too ❤️ my grandmother is from Norway. I don’t make very many fish dishes for the freezer, but this sounds amazing. I will try it ☺️
Ive been cooking my meatballs in the oven for years now. Youd be surprised how many people have never heard of that, and think Im nuts! Guess you and I can now be crazy together. I think showing the finished product will encourage people to try it themselves. Good for you and thanks for your videos.
The Loraine I have heard of but I have never seen it looks really good. You cook the way I do. Your recipes give great ideas. I would buy a cookbook to I love a physical cookbook to. I love your channel.
Thanks SOOO much Abby Jo! Fantastic vid! Even tho it’s just my husband and I (empty nest) I believe we would thoroughly enjoy these recipes and getting them into our freezer. We just bought a new travel trailer, with a freezer! and these freezer meals will be super handy on our travels 🥰
Hi Abby Jo. I love the idea of your Pourable pie crust. Have you ever made a version of this for fruit dessert or pie? I would love one. Thank you fir the video. 😊
@@ayoung9441 Hello 👋 I have thought about that ❤️ and honestly it wouldn’t be hard to make this recipe fit a fruit dessert, basically a fruit cobbler of sorts. I will definitely try it out soon and see if I can make a recipe for that on here too 😍
For the freezer I make a tortellini, sausage, fire roasted tomato, small diced carrot, chopped onion and minced garlic and cumin soup with chicken stock (which I always have in my freezer). I cook like you do, no recipe. Just make it taste good. Super easy and makes quite a lot. I get a pack, of tortellini at Costco and use a pound of sausage, a few carrots, a large onion and quite a bit of garlic. I always have finely chopped jalapeños in my freezer so I add a few. S&P. Thanks for the ideas. I’m subscribing.
Great job… i do a lot of the same. But i do like to go ahead and cook some of my pizza crust into smaller personal sized portions. And freeze them. Then all you have to do is take it out put on your toppings and throw it in the oven or air fryer and in three minutes. You have a done meal. 😊
Hi Abby Jo, I just found your channel and i love ot already. I find it inspiring and relaxing. The food looks amazing and im definitely gonna try some of the recipes. Im going to watch all your videos, starting with the oldest. Greetings from Nathalie in the Netherlands
Abby Jo. Incredible! Another wonderful orchestration. In the kitchen with my wonderful friend. I like to bake bread, slice and freeze it for the month. Shepherds pie, cornbread, meatloaf and lasagna are regulars in my freezer.
Awesome job. I usually do meatloaf, porcupine meatballs, 15 bean w/ ham, chili, pinto beans with ground beef and onions and spaghetti when I do freezer meals.
Hi friend, love your new house it's cozy and cheerful. So good to see you. How's your garden growing? What would you say we need to store up for stormy weather, illness, etc just incase? Don't be a stranger ok? Love your teachings. Onions burn my eyes too.
Hello Rhonda, Thank you! Our garden isn't growing yet, we live in zone 4 everything is still on our growing rack. Next year I hope to have a green house :) I need to do a video on long term storage and the pantry soon. But I would focus on the basics first, and things your family like to eat. Have a lovely weekend.
@Forgotten Way Farms yes green house is fantastic. I'm in zone 5. T.Y. a video on working pantry and storage would be much needed by many. I'm making your yummy quiche tomorrow.
I know that is a lot of work. You; however, make it look easy 😊 All the food looked scrumptious Abby Jo. I like how you dropped a little zucchini in the meatballs. The quiche is delicious and I haven't made any in quite awhile so thank you for the reminder. I'm interested in the chicken dish also. Have a blessed weekend 🕊✝️🙏
We love to have chili with cinnamon rolls here in Iowa when I was in grade school I am 67 so that tells you it was a long time ago that was a favorite menu chili and cinnamon rolls it is a comfort food here
My last stock ups for quick meals were some individual size pot pies and quiches, some premade waffles and French toast, meatballs and pierogis. I need to make up more chicken and rice burritos as my husband prefers those to the ones I like with beans in them but I haven't made chicken in a bit and my burritos tend to be made with leftovers the same as my pierogis.
I have always wanted to do these planned out meals that were frozen but we live in the 🥵 hot AZ summers that we are almost on the brink to we don’t use the ovens. It’s just that hot. The air fryer and dehydrators even put off way too much heat. If you have more ones that you can share from the instapot or crock pots I would greatly appreciate it if you have ideas ❤❤❤❤❤ bless you for doing these videos
Hi Abby Jo. I was so excited for this upload. That was awesome. Your family eats gooood! I love your pizza videos. Your husband had the best pizza combination request for his birthday. I'm looking forward to the next video. Thanks a bunch. Many blessings my dear.
I have been praying for you and sure do miss you on CZcams. How are you doing since your accident? Praying you will fully recover very soon. Love and blessings to you, Abby Jo.
I’ve been cooking up bacon and breakfast sausage to have in the freezer. They only take a few minutes to reheat in the oven or on the stove while the rest of breakfast is cooking and it makes bagels or English muffins feel a little more rounded out as a meal. I need to do meatballs, my kids love meatball sandwiches! I really want to try the honey garlic chicken too.
Would you please explain how you prepare your quiche for the freezer and the reheating process? I'm getting ready to make some for a friend's freezer for her post partum time. I'd love to know how you wrap them and get them ready for the freezer.
I usually make mine in a smaller pie tin that I can fit into a freezer bag. But you can also wrap it well in plastic wrap and tin foil or freezer paper. I reheat slowly in a 325 oven to warm thoroughly and crisp up the crust.
AS A SENIOR, I MISS MY OLD FAMILY RECIPES FOR A LARGER FAMILY. STOPPED COOKING THEM BECAUSE TOO WASTEFUL FOR ONE PERSON. COOKING THEM AGAIN NOW DOING THE FREEZER MEALS. SUCH A GREAT IDEA. NO WASTE, LESS CLEANUP, HANDY ON BUSY DAYS AND GREAT FOR WHEN COMPANY STOPS BY.

I totally agree! :)
Such a good economical way to make meals for one person :)
Have you ever thought about compiling all of your recipes together in a cookbook? I most certainly would buy a copy if you did.
Oh, that would be awesome!
That’s a great idea, I’ve been thinking about making an ebook. But a published one would be cool too! ❤️
@@onelittlemiracle241 I’m thinking on it ❤️
@@ForgottenWayFarms Yay! I love a good cookbook. I still have a bunch from my Grandmother and Mom.
I would love that also ❤
All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! I love watching your videos, my friend! How blessed your husband and children are, and I'm sure they are very aware! God bless you, sweet lady.

I love how you always end with how to make the freezer meals into a full dinner meal! Thank you…that’s where I struggle the most! ❤
You are so welcome!
I'm only half way through the video, first time watching you and I'm inspired to make a whole batch of freezer meals. You're so very calm and easy to watch and listen to. Thanks.

Hi Abby Jo, thank you for sharing with us today, you are busy! Feeding the family makes my heart sing. I'm a feeder i like feeding friends and family with homemade goods.
Onions onions onions... I often tell people that the best way to peel and chop is to leave the 'hairy' end on, this is the part that makes us cry! lol Thank you again..
I bet family and friends love that you are a feeder ❤️ Good to know that about city onions 🧅 Thank you!
I stock my freezer with cooked chopped chicken (made from cooking two whole chickens), uncooked mini meatloaves, pre-cooked beans, pre-cooked rice, shaped raw hamburgers (usually seasoned sometimes not), and shredded cheese (block of cheese shredded at home tastes better than pre-shred from the store).
All wonderful things to stock up your freezer with 😊
I brown up extra sausage or hamburger when cooking it. I then freeze it in small portions for my pizza nights.
Yes, that’s wonderful! I do that too, it helps having browned meat ready to go for any recipe ❤️

Hi Abby Jo. I love the idea of your Pourable pie crust. Have you ever made a version of this for fruit dessert or pie? I would love one. Thank you fir the video. 😊
@@ayoung9441 Hello 👋 I have thought about that ❤️ and honestly it wouldn’t be hard to make this recipe fit a fruit dessert, basically a fruit cobbler of sorts. I will definitely try it out soon and see if I can make a recipe for that on here too 😍
I made your pie crust ,the easiest crust I ever worked with I will not use any other one, thank you
So happy to hear that! I love it, have used it for years ❤️
For the freezer I make a tortellini, sausage, fire roasted tomato, small diced carrot, chopped onion and minced garlic and cumin soup with chicken stock (which I always have in my freezer). I cook like you do, no recipe. Just make it taste good. Super easy and makes quite a lot. I get a pack, of tortellini at Costco and use a pound of sausage, a few carrots, a large onion and quite a bit of garlic. I always have finely chopped jalapeños in my freezer so I add a few. S&P.
Thanks for the ideas. I’m subscribing.
That sounds delicious! I’m going to have to try that, I love the tortellini at Costco. Thank you for subscribing ❤️
Great job… i do a lot of the same. But i do like to go ahead and cook some of my pizza crust into smaller personal sized portions. And freeze them. Then all you have to do is take it out put on your toppings and throw it in the oven or air fryer and in three minutes. You have a done meal. 😊
Thank you. Yes, I do that sometimes too! It is nice for a quick lunch :)
You really a very special person your family are very lucky to have you wishing you the best in every thing you do one of a kind ❤
Awww 🥰 that’s so sweet of you, thank you.
Such a treat when one of your videos pops up!!! Thank you!
Awww 🥰 glad to hear that!
Hi Abby Jo,
I just found your channel and i love ot already.
I find it inspiring and relaxing. The food looks amazing and im definitely gonna try some of the recipes.
Im going to watch all your videos, starting with the oldest.
Greetings from Nathalie in the Netherlands
I’m so glad you found us 🥰 welcome!!
Abby Jo. Incredible! Another wonderful orchestration. In the kitchen with my wonderful friend. I like to bake bread, slice and freeze it for the month. Shepherds pie, cornbread, meatloaf and lasagna are regulars in my freezer.
Thank you, Debbie ❤️ Those are all wonderful things to stock the freezer with!
❤️❤️
Awesome job. I usually do meatloaf, porcupine meatballs, 15 bean w/ ham, chili, pinto beans with ground beef and onions and spaghetti when I do freezer meals.
Good stuff! Those all sound delish.
Hi friend, love your new house it's cozy and cheerful. So good to see you. How's your garden growing? What would you say we need to store up for stormy weather, illness, etc just incase? Don't be a stranger ok? Love your teachings. Onions burn my eyes too.
Hello Rhonda, Thank you! Our garden isn't growing yet, we live in zone 4 everything is still on our growing rack. Next year I hope to have a green house :) I need to do a video on long term storage and the pantry soon. But I would focus on the basics first, and things your family like to eat. Have a lovely weekend.
@Forgotten Way Farms yes green house is fantastic. I'm in zone 5. T.Y. a video on working pantry and storage would be much needed by many. I'm making your yummy quiche tomorrow.
@@rhondadean5455 Yes, I agree ❤️
@@rhondadean5455 Yay, I’m glad you are making the quiche 🙌
This was an absolute lovely video. It inspired me in a calming manner. Thank you and hugs from California.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 🥰 hugs to you.
Beautiful products you’ve made! Lucky family that gets to dig in
Thank you! 😊
I know that is a lot of work. You; however, make it look easy 😊 All the food looked scrumptious Abby Jo. I like how you dropped a little zucchini in the meatballs. The quiche is delicious and I haven't made any in quite awhile so thank you for the reminder. I'm interested in the chicken dish also. Have a blessed weekend 🕊✝️🙏
Thank you ☺️ you have a blessed weekend too!
We love to have chili with cinnamon rolls here in Iowa when I was in grade school I am 67 so that tells you it was a long time ago that was a favorite menu chili and cinnamon rolls it is a comfort food here
That is a lovely combo! True comfort food.
I love freezer meal recipes, thank you. Take care!
Thank you! You too!
My last stock ups for quick meals were some individual size pot pies and quiches, some premade waffles and French toast, meatballs and pierogis. I need to make up more chicken and rice burritos as my husband prefers those to the ones I like with beans in them but I haven't made chicken in a bit and my burritos tend to be made with leftovers the same as my pierogis.
Yummy, that all sounds so good! I love a good pierogi ❤️
Thanks Abby Jo 4-15-2023❤
You are welcome 😊❤️
I have always wanted to do these planned out meals that were frozen but we live in the 🥵 hot AZ summers that we are almost on the brink to we don’t use the ovens. It’s just that hot. The air fryer and dehydrators even put off way too much heat. If you have more ones that you can share from the instapot or crock pots I would greatly appreciate it if you have ideas ❤❤❤❤❤ bless you for doing these videos
I will try to do more crockpot and instapot meals, I love cooking with both :)
Hi Abby Jo. I was so excited for this upload. That was awesome. Your family eats gooood! I love your pizza videos. Your husband had the best pizza combination request for his birthday. I'm looking forward to the next video. Thanks a bunch. Many blessings my dear.
Hello 🥰 I’m so glad you enjoy the pizza videos. I love that combo too. Blessings to you!
I would defiantly buy a cookbook of your's everything looks delish !! I collect cookbook's I just love reading them like I would any book. Thank you 💕
Awww 🥰 thank you! I’m thinking about putting a freezer meal one together. I do have a cozy Christmas cookbook on Amazon 😊
I have been praying for you and sure do miss you on CZcams. How are you doing since your accident? Praying you will fully recover very soon. Love and blessings to you, Abby Jo.
Thank you so much, just catching up on comments today. Much better, took awhile before I felt ok.
Ohhh yaaaaa chipotle!! Hubby loves that in everything!
It’s so good! 😊
Loved all those yummy meals you prep
Thank you 🥰
Chili rice and a can of kidney beans ….. hot dish we called Granny goulash! My friends called it Mexican goulash.
Yummy!
So motivating! Thank you!
You are welcome 😍
Love your channel!!!!
Thank you ☺️
I love this thanks for sharing dear
You are welcome 🥰
I’ve been cooking up bacon and breakfast sausage to have in the freezer. They only take a few minutes to reheat in the oven or on the stove while the rest of breakfast is cooking and it makes bagels or English muffins feel a little more rounded out as a meal. I need to do meatballs, my kids love meatball sandwiches! I really want to try the honey garlic chicken too.
It's so nice to have it in the freezer already cooked, my family wipes it out fast though :) Meatball sandwiches are the best!
You are Amazing, the quiche recipe is lovely, we don't eat hot spicey foods in this house, and ill try your pot pie too,
Thank you, glad you like the recipes. 😊
I just found you! Love your videos! Totally subscribing ❤❤

That's awesome, it really does! Try adding chipotle too it gives extra smokey warm flavor :)
WOW!!
:)
Great video & recipes. Definately going to try your Pourable Pot Pie!!
Thank you! 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟
FYI & Pet Peeve: 'Instant Pot' not instapot. 😊
Love your videos I always learn so much
Awww 🥰 thank you!
Would you please explain how you prepare your quiche for the freezer and the reheating process? I'm getting ready to make some for a friend's freezer for her post partum time. I'd love to know how you wrap them and get them ready for the freezer.
I usually make mine in a smaller pie tin that I can fit into a freezer bag. But you can also wrap it well in plastic wrap and tin foil or freezer paper. I reheat slowly in a 325 oven to warm thoroughly and crisp up the crust.
Your casserole 🥘 looks delicious 🤤
Thank you ☺️
