I canned up beef broth, chicken broth, blueberry pancake syrup, and elderberry syrup for our home this week. Then, I helped my daughter at her home can up potatoes, stewed tomatoes, blueberry pancake syrup, and fish. We are both glad to have cleared up freezer space! Happy Canuary 😊
That's amazing! I'd love to know how you do blueberry Pancake syrup. That sounds interesting!
I've made blueberry syrup. Basically, boil the berries in sugar water. Then strain for a few hours. Take the juice and boil until it thickens. It's easy. I'm not sure how long it water bathed. I'm sure there's a recipe online.
I took the blueberry pulp and cooked it with lemon juice and zest until it reached about 218°. Probably added some sugar to it.
Thank u so much for sharing ur syrup methods 🫐💙🫐💙@@kelsie_adams
I’ve been wondering if I could can elderberry syrup! Did you pressure can this?
@@brittanyk3241 I waterbathed it for 15 minutes
I think the idea of keeping the jars filled is definitely a way to help in the food budget.
I really like your idea of keeping all jars filled. No empties go to the basement pantry! I’m going to adopt the same. I have about 9 dozen of empty jars. So I’ve started. I filled 14 jar’s with chicken thighs, 12 jars of chicken broth and 16 pints of mushrooms. I’ve got 4 trays of avocados in the freeze drier. Happy cannuary everyone! 😊
Great reminder!
I look forward to my sunday morning coffee with you and the family. You're so solid and real and a true inspiration
Thanks Jessica!
To preserve fresh apples almost indefinitely, Cut up a thick brown paper grocery bag into 6-7 inch squares and wrap each apple separately. Newspaper works too, but I read them online so I use grocery bags. The individually wrapped apples are placed in another grocery bag or container and stored in a cool dry place. I use the bottom of my refrigerator. The paper keeps the apples from touching each other, which is why they don't spoil. I've stored apples like this for several months and they don't get mushy at all.
Last year I was totally unprepared for the challenge. Made it less than 2 weeks. This year, I am still going strong and making it into the 2nd month and maybe could do 3 months. I am taking note of what I need to stock more of or would have like to have done differently (more soups) This really gets my mind set on how to do hurricane preps better also.
That's incredible! Such a wonderful mindset❤
I love the ideas for “convenience foods”. Cooking beans ahead and having a soup base on hand is great
I am also making room in my freezer for two hogs that are being processed. I had a large bag of chicken backs and breast bones from when we processed our last batch of birds and canned up broth with them. The pieces of meat that were on the backs were stripped off and frozen for a later meal. Hope everyone has a great week!
I too can year around. I cannot grow enough to feed us for long and we are living on disability, so I visit food pantries and mobile food trucks. We usually get produce in quantities the 2 of us cannot eat before they go bad. I can it all. I might get 10 lbs of carrots but not see carrots again for months but I have jars of carrots. This week was 7 lbs of blueberries....so into jars the go.
I currently canning plum butter. When I was organizing my freezers for the pantry challenge, I didn’t realize I had 7 gallon size ziplock bags of plums! So it’s plum butter, Asian BBQ sauce, and plum sauce for pancakes.
I’ve been freezing lemon juice in ice cube trays from target. The bottoms of the trays are silicone and it’s easy to pop the cubes out and the trays have lids also!
Jessica, You are a leader! You remind me of my, Mama. Humble, Sweet, so, so Kind.... I have no children. Amazing. You are such a GOOD 'TEACHER'. Simple, easy, and practical. ❤😊
Thank you so much!
You are welcome!! Keep up the great work! two 👍 👍 up❤😊
All I can say is...I'm in awe of your commitment and organizational skills.💖💖
I Love this video and the ideas ❤ I intentionally dehydrated Alot of onions and bell peppers during the summer and it's so easy to just add to meals and go. Also I did alot of soup bases and canned beans(It was my first time pressure canning) which has helped tremendously since the surgery and these freezing days we've had in Oklahoma. Also in 2024 I've started putting my meal planner and things to do (bake bread, pressure can, etc) into my daily planner🙌🏽 I don't know why I thought I could manage 2 planners 🤦🏾As Always Much Love From Okc ❤ Wishing Everyone a Blessed Week 🙏🏾
This time if year is perfect time to do food preservation before garden season kicks off for many of us!!!
I love the simplify of ur thumbnail photos
Theyre absolutely beautiful
Tfs ur homelife and all this wonderful food preparation and preservation 💙🩵💙
Thank you so much
Bless you for the hard work of continuity of the American work spirit! May you and all women like you, that can in jars, dehydrate, grow, render, butcher, store, and raise American families, stay strong and teach that strength through exampling. I am proud to be related to you through this strength of pioneering spirit. Finding a way to take care of our family is the most Christlike of Love.
Thank you
Jessica, I had the same kind of “oops I’ve” and forgot to bring in several jars of my homemade ferments. I brought everything inside and realized that the freezing wasn’t totally destructive. I threw away several quarts of whole dill pickles…mushy pickles sounds less than appealing. But, my kraut, fermented garlic, fermented kohlrabi, and fermented radish seed pods were just fine. Now my inside fridge is stuffed with all my salvaged ferments. So all is not lost if you act fast! I really appreciate your ways of preserving onions. Mine are now getting a bit over-the-hill. Time to preserve them.
Fermented kohlrabi is not something I have ever tried. Definitely one to add to my list.
I really enjoy watching your preservation videos. The simplicity of delicious home cooked meals is straight forward in your words and actions. Thank you 😊
Before this challenge I thought of canning preservation primarily for late summer. I’m so inspired now besides the chicken broth I’ve made; I plan to preserve beans, grape jelly, onions and beef broth! This is good stewardship of all those goodies buried in the pantry and freezer! Blessings on your family Jessica!❤🙏🏻
Also, the heat is welcome in the winter, no flies and a more leisurely pace - when you aren’t harvesting every day! ❤️
What do u do with ur freeze dried 🥑avocados?
Oh, so helpful! ⚘THANKS TO YOU, I canned many jars of Beef and Chicken Broth and homemade Chili today. 1st time! Tomorrow is canning Beef. Wow. Thanks so much, Jessica!
Great video ,,iam so impressed for a young mother how much you do for your family so nice to see ,I love canning to but just 2 of us at home so don’t do to much
Thanks for showing us so many ways to preserve everything. My goal is not to let anything go to waste and now I have more knowledge to do so.
Oh my goodness, this pantry challenge has been so good for my freezers and store! I am really cleaning house in the food department. Getting creative with the meals. Thank you for hosting this. GOD bless
I did it! We had dinner tonight and completed our January challenge. For us it was eating at least 1 thing out of our overstuffed freezer every day. I live in the woods so don’t put up a garden. We decided to continue into February. The surprise was finding some chicken breasts from 2019 that hadn’t been eaten in a timely manner.
I simmered 9.5lbs beef bones this past week for 48 hours. Today, I am canning 7 quarts taco soup and Turnip green soup that both use beef broth. I am also using canned beans, corn, Rotel, diced, and tomato sauce to rotate through them and restock my canned items with sales. I have 2 more bags of beef bones and will start another roaster of bone broth after canning. I will use some of it to can Rustic Tuscan soup ( smoked sausage, potatoes. carrots. beans, and tomatoes)in a few days, as well as some quarts of the broth.
Great video! You’re such an inspiration for me regarding canning. I’m getting 120lbs of pears on Wednesday and I’m rewatching your pear canning video for the 4th time in preparation. ❤
Definitely gonna try pear scrap jelly and your GF pear pie filling! Can’t wait! Thanks for all the love and ideas. ❤
I have embraced the pantry challenge. I tend to have too much food in the house and being intentional will help me.
I've been canning a lot myself - bone broth, meat, pasta sauce and soups, plus I rendered few pints of tallow.
A local butcher is kindly giving me all his bones and meat offcuts for my pets (free of charge) so I use the best ones for canning - my cats turn up their noses at it, but the dogs and foxes eat like royalty. My dogs in particular love bone broth and get a bowl full of it every day.
Meat I get when it's on sale or short-dated and I can it up for quick dinners.
Your videos keep me motivated to get busy when I'm not feeling 100%. I have an autoimmune condition and sometimes the pain is just too much, but I soldier on.
Thank you for sharing your cooking and canning - they are really helpful.
Good morning my dear friend, wow, you sure were productive this week!! I always look forward to Sunday with you and you never disappoint! You are an amazing mom, wife and woman, always remember that!! Already looking forward to next week, have a Blessed week!
Great job! A lot of good work done this week. Glad to hear you are planning an indoor access to the cellar - those stairs remind me of my "Grandma's cellar" and are not fun with an arm load. I too am changing it. Not sure where you are putting the new stairs - will be interesting to see. Perhaps a dumb waiter too. Good video Ma'am.
Seaweed is a great source of vitamins & can be purchased easily online in dried form & a little bit added in to your diet has huge benefits
I love your channel and the wY you think about saving everything last week I had soup going to waste and you inspired me to turn into pot pie.i got 3 out of it .then I canned up homemade bbq jelly Mississippi pot roast pork roast in spicy broth.andturkey broth so thank you so much.from a momma who just lost her job thank you
I feel you. My husband just lost his job and to make it worse he lost his job a month before our second baby is due. So the whole health insurance it’s been a nightmare. Prayers for us mama
I am doing the challenge for the first time. As I live in a city and don't have a garden I am allowing myself a small budget to buy fruit,veg, dairy and coffee! LOL. That said my daughter is a freshman in college, so I am alone(I am a widow) and I don't eat as much as one person so I am not seeing as much depletion in my pantry stores. So I am going to extend until my daughter is home for the summer with a pause for spring break as she has requested a few different meals and items I will need to get. I just got a late xmas present of an electric pressure canner so I will can some of the beans in my pantry and stock from bones I have saved.
I started in October with my food challenge. Husband had a heart attack and with no money coming in we have lived out of my pantry and freezer. It helps so much to be prepared! I started following you almost 3 years ago. I believe you refill jars as they empty. I also get my beef the first of January, cleaned out part of my freezer with left over beef from last years cow. It is a blessing having everything you need on hand. I also bought leaf fat from a pug when I picked up my beef. Love having both beef tallow and pork lard in my refrigerator.
I have found my onions aren’t holding out this year as well. Been dehydrating a batch of them every few days. Have a great week!
You are always an inspiration. I wish you had time for more videos, but I’m glad for the ones you do put out ❤. Your family is wonderful to watch.
I would love a freeze dryer. At my age, it's not sensible for me.
I learned refilling emptied jars from you. Told my husband I needed to keep enough empty jars for upcoming maple syrup in Northern Indiana. Then I was offered free jars from an elderly woman. Problem solved. Storage space is the biggest problem.
Thank you sissy for all of your wonderful ideas for canning food! God's blessing over you and your beautiful family!
I am having so much fun joining in on the pantry challenge ❤
I have gone through 3 cases of jars recently, but unfortunately most of them are 1/2 pints, because of us being empty nesters. We also have freeze dried foods, so we are emptying mylar bags as well. Watching your video has me getting the pressure canner back out and putting up something. My one splurge in January was to get 100 lbs of frozen vegetables and freeze dry them. It was the only thing missing from my pantry, peas, broccoli, green beans and mixed vegetables.
Jessica, if you put about an inch of water into the roaster before you put in the insert, your food will scorch less, too.
hey sista i love your meal planning ive never done it i wasnt raised eating 3 plus times a day i eat when i feel like it atm its soup season i have 4 litres of organic vegan food in the fridge i just heat it up dunk in organic sourdough bread if i have any and it fills me up im a lazy vegan and i love soup
You feed your children what's good for them. And has nutrition.
Better to ask them then waste time, money, and food on non compliant eaters.
Except Miss Hannah, who I believe loves everything she gets.
I just enjoy watching them all enjoy everything you make.😊🙏
Thank you so much for all the tips you give while showing us how you preserve foods. Also appreciate that you show how you use things in smaller batches to prevent food loss. I look forward to your videos because I always seem to learn some little gem that makes life better and they are such a positive happy place to spend some time with a cup of tea.
Awesome information about keeping your jars filled….I better get a going on canning. You have many great recipes and information. Aloha from Big Island Hawaii
Love it when it's Sunday
and you put up a video!
Loving the idea of leaving the apple skins in the sauce! It would save me a bunch of time! 😊
I didn't know lard had vitamin D. My goodness! We are really missing out on this goodness. Thanks. *Hugs*
Hi Jessica!!! Happy Home Church Day ❤❤❤ sending Joyland love to you and your family.
You are an amazing lady!!
Keep the Faith my friend. You are looking great!!
Your Michigan Fan and Friend Araminta 😊😊😊😊
Absolutely amazing !
As soon as I am feeling better, I will make cranberry juice for my grandson. This will give me more room in the freezer. Thanks for all you do.
I have never thought about preserving onions. That's something I should definitely be doing. I am excited to grow garlic this year, it will be my first year, so I am hoping I succeed. I love split pea and ham soup, Yummy!!! I hope you have an amazing week.
We all do redundant meals! Thanks to you, I am combining pantry and freezer stuff to use up old stuff. Today was beef broth, Turkey broth, grains and a taco soup mix plus ground Turkey.! Threw away or washed three freezer bags!❤tyty!
I have saved a bundle of $ on groceries this month! Thanks to you!
I love watching your videos! I've learned so much from you. I also thought it was funny that we had to empty our freezer of bones to make room for meat! I canned up some nice beef broth while my hubby was off for some extra days.
I have been liking the challenge of using what I have creatively and saving that extra money in our food budget for our bulk purchases. We unfortunately don't have property yet for our own animals, but we manage with wonderful local farmers.
Thanks again for your inspiration!
You are such an inspiration !Thank you Jessica❤❤❤
My steps to the basement are a little steeper than yours and I treat it like a ladder and go down backwards. Much safer. I bet you are really looking forward to having better stairs and access from inside your home! That will be so wonderful.
Love all the canning videos
Love the soup base jars❤
I so enjoy watching xx thank you 🥰
Phenomenal video-thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So many great and delicious ideas!! TY!
This is so very inspiring! I have a video request and im not sure exactly how to get it to you. When you have the opportunity, I would absolutely love to see a flip through your recipe cards and hear your comments on ways to edit and get creative with each one. During these challenges I am totally stumped by week 2. I am exhausted and after hours of video, feeling a bit scattered. I bought Hope's kitchen (for the simple recipes!) And its been a start. Having some of your thoughts in one condensed refrence would be such a wonderful resource for those of us not as experienced in kitchen creativity! ❤ it could be a beutiful collaboration across the threeriverschallenge group! thank you for inspiring us all!!
Thanks Jessica, this is great... I've been loving the challenge and got great ideas for suppers.
I'm also processing what was left over from this past season...
Blessings ❤
Thankyou for all the great ideas!
Good job Jessica. You're amazing. Ty.
Jessica, your homemade apple butter took me back to my youth when my mother made it while I was growing up. One of my favorite ways to eat it was on peanut butter sandwiches, instead of jelly we occasionally would use apple butter. Have your little ones ever tried it on a sun-butter sandwich. I bet it would be delicious 😋.
This year, I want to can up apple sauce. I love apple sauce. I am new to canning. Last year, I canned up all my own tomato sauce from my garden 😊
Wow, what an amazing week. I loved every minute Jessica! Thank you for sharing.
I loved this video! Thank you!
💚 Thanks for sharing your week of filling jars and canning. Glad ypu were still able to use up the apples! 💚
Excellent use of everything! Love this and the bone broth
I'm at the same point. Jars everywhere! Thank you for the tips. God bless you.
Beautiful abundance! I love meeting with you and having a soothing and uplifting few minutes to start the day 😊 thank you for sharing!
It’s been great to follow and participate in the pantry challenge. I’m using a lot of canning and looked at empty jars thinking I need a box to store them. I checked my canned beans and was out of black beans so I will be getting the jars filled. Found a deal on citrus and while my budget was $25 for the entire month and already used up I made the exception and got over 15 lbs of lemons for $6. I will be freezing the juice for lemonade and most likely going back for more. I’d like to try zesting and dehydrating some of the lemon peels. I do have beef bones to move out of the freezer so bone broth will be coming up. Thank you for the great content. I enjoy your channel even as an empty nester and grandmother of 4.
I get the best ideas from your cooking and canning. Thank you
thanks for all your inspiration! i did make and can a big batch of boston baked beans this week
Always such a pleasure learning from you ! The kiddos are precious. There is nothing comparable to homemade applesauce. I just tastes so much impressive.
Thanks for another wonderful video. Hope you have a great week!
You are an inspiration! I learn so much watching you.
Love doing the pantry challenges!
Im working on saving my potatoes before they go bad.
Thanks for all you share with us!❤
Mmmm love the apple butter cinnamon roll idea!
I’m always so impressed with you and your abilities with preservation.
Thanks for my regular Sunday night dose of you & your family. Have a blessed week.
Great video as usual. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Jessica! It’s just hubs and I. We’re older and don’t eat as much as we used to but I’ve managed to only have to buy potatoes this month but I’ve been making a lot of soup! I’ve got about 30 empty jars too. Love this challenge.
I especially love when you show your new cellar pantry.❤
Loved watching you and getting ideas to canning. And love to see the kids . They are precious and growing. You are a power house.
Wow just awesome Jessica 👍❤️
Another super video. Lots of ideas. Thank you.
Absolutely brilliant, amazing and inspiring! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤
Outstanding video. So motivating
This is the best way to
start Sunday Thank you ❤
Thanks Jessica ❤ well done.
So very happy to see you on this morning have a blessed and wonderful Sunday
You have given me so much inspiration on trying to keep up with what little we do have so we don’t waste .😊
I’m enjoying watching you Pantry challenge and trying to do the same. I think it’s amazing all the ways you are able to take what you have and make a dinner with it. I am canning up chicken broth today that I had prepared beforehand. Many times I don’t do it all in the same day bc I run out of time or tire out. Happy canning and preserving!
Going to be watching this one over and over again!! 🙏❤️
Btw hope you're saving the crackles from rendering - I save in bags and add to my sourdough biscuits with lard and butter as some of the fat! And in cornbread!
Jessica, I simply love watching you can and cook all your wonderful meals. Reminds me of my youth young lady. God has truly blessed you and your family. May you continue to have many blessings.
Your a inspiration. Always giving me great ideas and information to use in my own life for canning and meals. Have a blessed day.
Great video. Thank you. Blessings
