- I have a lot of things to get done today, and I'm taking you guys along with me to keep me company ♥ I still have a 5-gallon bucket of carrots our in the garage refrigerator that I picked last fall that need to be processed. I have a box of frozen tomatoes from last season, along with a bunch of zucchini that we need to process as well. And there's a big batch of leaf lard from our batch of pigs we need to render down as well. Oh and while we're at it, let's make some zucchini bread as well. How does chocolate chocolate chip sound to you? ♥ you guys - Rachel

I love that your so honest we always have a load of neglected veggies that we sort in winter! Madness in summer! I get to the point that if I see another tomato I’ll scream! Lol now I am craving them so bad!!
I agree. Reality is so much more refreshing in this type of video post. We can't do everything at the right time, so I'm delighted to see this honest post. 🙂
Good job Rachel you got a lot accomplished! So nice that Todd came to help you when he heard his name. You make a good team
Don’t want him relying on another woman for his zucchini bread needs!
😂😂😂 I laughed way harder then I should have !
I love your videos, Rachel. Please, please write a cookbook and/or a book on how you process and canning recipes. I'm begging you!
Tying a ribbon around your towel on the stove bar……GENIUS!!!!!!! Wow! So simple and pretty and functional. Thank you for the tip even though it wasn’t “officially” shared. 💜
Please post the recipe for pineapple/zucchini bread. Sounds great 👍
I would love this recipe too!
Ditto!!!
Me too
That Amish Water Bath Canner is a BEAST!!! I never have seen one, I love it. Amazing Job today, you're a ROCKSTAR for sure, so nice to have Hubby sharing the load, Take Care and Love each other!
I agree she is so blessed to have a co partner who is a helper in all that she does…..and admire how he shows his love for her….always snuggling close or putting his arm around her…..
Yes, it's just so great to see in these days of hatred which have also affected other lives as well. So.good.to.see.love!
Rachael, remember the carrot rehydrated will NEED to be cooked before you feed it to the baby. Raw carrot will give them super gassy tummy. Just a helpful reminder 😊
I cook with carrot powder all the time...it's a staple in my kitchen .I make a brown rice and carrot casserole that's cheesey and beautifully colored.My hubby won't eat cooked carrots but he will eat them after they are powdered. Great in eggs ,soup, you will come up with so many uses you will wonder how you did without them.
You really need to publish a cookbook of all your amazing recipes
U are lucky to have a hubby that wants to help!! Woo hoo
Maybe next time a vegetable soup base with your carrots, Zucchini and tomatoes?
I just bought my very first Presto Pressure Canner today at Walmart!!! Many of your videos have inspired me!!!! I am a little intimidated by it but I'll just pull up one of your videos and I'm sure I will be just fine! Thank you for your informative and fun videos!!!
Congratulations. You'll love it!
Thanks for letting us tag a long. I know how you feel, I have been in the kitchen all day making cottage cheese and caramel topping.
I love zucchini spirals instead of pasta. I make it just like noodles. I flash freeze in little nests then put them in ziplock bags.
You've accomplished so much in a day! Love how relaxed you are in the kitchen, not fussing about every detail, ready to experiment:)))
I understand you may not see this, but my Mother dehydrated much of the vegetables that we grew. She would grind many of them. (making them into power) She Had an amazing way to use the vegi powder. She would mix the different veggie powders and add a bit of salt or a bit of pepper and dust it on everything. She would also put it in every meatloaf, ball, soup, stew, and salad we ate. She dusted it on peas before she dried them, that was a yummy snack. My Mom was good at not waisting things. I love her for it.
I have never seen an Amish water bath. canner! How neat!
I never thought of making zucchini bread with pineapple zucchini. I may have to try that with one of my jars next week.
Love you guys 💕
You always make it look so easy, thank you for sharing 😊
I love this format. Thanks for taking me along for your very productive day!
so productive..i love those days 💖💖
Another great video, always learning from you☺️thank you for sharing ❤️ 🙏🏼
Really enjoyed this video 😀
Busy lady! Great job Rachel 💖
You originally gave me the ideas for cleaning out our freezer into canning jars. Love these videos
I always like how you keep it real. I'm do my canning, baking and cooking similar to you...thank you so much for your time and always showing us your ways of doing things.
Thanks for the video. Good to see how you end up doing things left over from last years crops.
Enjoyed this video as I started some seeds. Thanks for the tip about zucchini. I made a note to try the mock pineapple.
Rachel, I could watch you 24/7 !!! ♥️♥️
Stacking canning projects are great. Finishing out the day with something sweet makes it a perfect day on the homestead.
Love the idea of throwing all the veges in the roaster and pureeing them. I am going to try this this summer.
Great tip about incorporating zucchini into so many things to help stretch them. I had no idea! Thank you.
Wow! I’m exhausted just watching you prepare all of your bounty for storage! How wonderful you grew all of it and know what can go with what and it will be waiting for you when you are ready. Bravo! 💕
Great job Rachel!! I'm ready to get back in the garden and kitchen if only the weather would cooperate!!
Love to watch your videos! Thank you for sharing your wisdom & knowledge for a mom who’s just starting to can.
Great video, Rachel. Couldn't sleep so got up and watching you in the middle of the night. You make me want to clean out my freezer and start canning, lol.
Great video Rachael. You really got a lot accomplished.
Great job. That reminds me I have a bunch of diced peppers and onions in the freezer that I need to can up to make more room.
So glad I found your videos as u Give heartfelt recipes Canning & so much information. Thank you from bottom of my heart & don’t stop. U r my Hero
I have those pyrex mixing bowls. Love them. My grandma had it before me.
Great that Todd helps in the kitchen! Wonderful vlog; thanks!
Work of art! Beautiful. Had not seen the Amish water bath before. Cool.
Blessings, julie
that's a pretty neat canner never see one like that before It kind of reminds me of a canner way back In the day
I have to process all of the squash that are currently stored on my seed starting shelves. I feel the harvest procrastination of September and October, too!
Rachel! You are freaking mw out with using that knife on frozen Tom's! I was so skirmish watching you! Love your videos!
Yummy that smell in the winter is so awesome. I did mine a few weeks ago my spicy tomato sauce. I made some powdered carrots and haven't figured out just yet what to do with it so I'll be looking forward to your ideas. We are loving my mixed veggies powder.
You are amazing! I'm always afraid of ruining something by not following a recipe. God bless
Wow! That sure is a lot to do in one day. Way to go!
oh my goodness. I saw you put water in the bottom of your roaster and I thought to myself surely someone else has asked why. I started reading all of the comments and found several ladies asking the same question. I kinda of chucked to myself - you might have to do a video on why you put water in your roaster. Thanks for the great tip. I ruined a whole batch of spagetti sauce last year because of burning it.
Wow, that's a lot of processing for one day...good job!
I love sow the land! So glad to see their products in other youtuber's content. So glad I found your channel and look forward to watching more of your videos.
Hi Rachel. You are making me hungry for you food. That tomato puree is looking good. The brownies look delicious. Their are children who do not like eating veggies. But this is an awesome job to get kids to eat their veggies. Thank you for sharing your wonderful video. Take care. Maria. 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🥕🥕🍅🍅🍅🍅🥕🥕
Hey great job to you both- we have Torrential Rain & looks like it is here for another week. OH the joys of Sub-Tropical weather & I may have lost the new seedlings that I started because I can't plant them. Very Sad person at the moment. Cheers Denise- Australia
Thanks for the reminder to make zucchini bread. Tomorrow it's on my to do list.
A GOOD day! Thank you for sharing. Cleaned chest freezer. Spent all day today doing meat that I didn't want to go bad. A blessed day.
Awesome 👏
Instead of grinding lard, you can chop it up roughly and once it's soft just take an immersion stick blender and buzz it into smaller pieces for faster rendering
Girl! You are amazing!❤
Busy day Thanks for sharing .
That's a great idea!
I love that you got to use the rendered fat melting away on the stove to grease your pan for the bread. I love everything about what you do! I just moved (September) onto two acres, and slowly over the winter (Mild here in East Texas) to build some raised garden beds. I can't wait to get my garden started and first time canning soon! So glad I found you here on CZcams! Thank you!
You sure got a lot accomplished Rachel. That's a lot of work. Thanks Todd for helping out. That chocolate chocolate chip zucchini bread looked yummy!
You’re amazing!!!
That's some water bath canner! Never seen anything like that. I got another box of pint jars yesterday. I think I have plenty to do anything I want. My seeds came in. Just need weather to cooperate. Great video. Thanks for all your lessons!!
Oh My LARD! That is some beautiful lard you got there 😍
Your hubby came to your rescue!!!🤗
@13:45 That was a valuable couples moment. Thank you for honoring each other.
Amazing and productive day... I have used a roaster for years, and I have never put water between the pieces. Oops, I didn't know you were supposed to..
Thank you for answering
I have never seen an Amish water bath canner! That is amazing! Wow! You got so many things done today! The carrots and sauce look delicious! The chocolate zucchini bread also looked delicious!
Wow love that roaster and Amish canner. So cool
I didn’t realize you needed to put water under the roasting pan in your roaster, I always am on the lookout for the type you have but they are hard to find.
I found one of mine at a church thrift store & a new one at Walmart.
I got mine at Runnings before Christmas on sale for $49
I had to chuckle when you were making the zucchini bread. I have the same yellow bowl and the same yellow strainer.
Oh my Rachel, once u added that zucchini I thought YEP, THIS COMING WEEK, I am going to make a big batch of chili sauce! I have all the things in my freezer to get outta there 🤗 What a lovely way to warm up the house!!
To help getting rid of the stems of frozen tomatoes, use a drill and spade bit
I learned the hard way to do first dirty wash of carrots etc in bucket not sink so dirt and little stones don't clog drain
curious if you wash and reuse the plastic bags?
Wow Rachael you are a trooper! I am definitely going to can some pineapple zucchini if I get a good harvest.
My Momma used to use cracklings for crackling cornbread. So good.
Never heard of that
Wow!!
It's exhausting doing that much in the kitchen in one day but it sure is satisfying. Nice work!
Great video guys and I got a chuckle on the moment t about the woman who shares the zukebread with todd.
Wow! You managed to kick some butt and got a ton done in one day. Hopefully you managed to take some time and enjoy a quiet evening afterwards.
Long kitchen day for sure, a good 8-9 hours . I slept well ♥
lol thats exactly what i do too....if i am going to be in the kitchen i might as well do many things at the same time. Absolutely exhausting to do but oh how my halo glows in the morning when I get up and view the results :) xxx
You got a lot done but I bet you were ready for the recliner that night!! 😊
Yes I made the zukini in pineapple juice & its amazing
I used to wash the dirt off and then throw them in the washing machine full of water and then let it agitate for a few minutes and clean carrots
...green tomato pie ♥️
Sorry if you got notified of a dislike...finger slipped. Loved the video, thanks for bringing us along
Ive been canning pineapple zuchinni for last 4 years. I make my carrot cake with it, I use with orange glazes for pork loin, a dessert I make thats like ambrosia salad. Frankly anything that calls for canned pineapple.. Its my faux pinapple that I dont really miss the real pinapple.
Enjoyed your video! Does the lid to the water bath canner slide on to hold it down?
I have been following you and using my roaster but I didn't know you had to add water to the under the pan,
Where did you get your net type thing that you hold your jar lids in? Just found your channel and I enjoy it.
That zucchini tips is great!!!! How do you prevent it from mixing with other squashes?
Impressive
You must be really tired after that day. Good job Rachel. You go girl!
I giggle because like you when our daughter calls I'm always doing something, she says do you ever just sit down? Lol
I always fire back with did you have to become a Marine? Lol
Chocolate chip zucchini bread is great
I never knew to put water in roaster like that!! 😮
