Cooking the beans that much, destroys all the healthy goodness in them. Probably tastes good though.
What you call English cucumber, we call Burpless cucumber.
Can’t wait to try the corn dish.
Great video!
Im addicted to all of your video. I love watching you cook.
The seeds in a hot pepper have no heat it’s the membrane and pepper
Copper penny carrots are delicious! My family has been making this for generations!
I found the Cooper Penny recipe in an old Old cooking book. It was delicious! So glad you reminded me of it!
What in the 1970s Grandma is this dish? 😂😂😂
I love your voice!
Copper Penny salad brings back memories!
I love the sound of crunchy veggies being chopped. 😜
Corn is not a vegetable, it's a grain 🌽
Love green beans, will have to try that!!
To coleslaw mom not only added apples but nuts .. raisins or dried cranberries … 😋😋
Honey! Where is your Muller food chopper? I know you need a knife for copper pennies but everything else could’ve been done in an instant. 😁 and thank you for such excellent recipes!
Love your vids so far. Finally someone just being themselves which makes watching the whole video. Keep being you and continue with the great food.
The green bean recipe isn’t exactly how you made it on the video
More great ideas that I need to try! Side note: my mother used to chop up apples to add to her coleslaw when I was growing up. I'm 73, so that was a few years ago! And it does make such a difference.
Again, I’m making all of these!!! Thanks!
Not gonna lie, I read Forbidden Chef Secrets and It breaks things down so well, especially for someone who’s into learning how cooking works.
