  Use a half of a potato to create a non-stick surface. Just cut a potato in half and rub the flesh of the potato on the hot grill grates. The starch from the potato creates a non-stick surface so your precious dinner won't stick! 🍔

  I plan my meals for a week according to what I have available. I put that list on my fridge and my husband (It is just him and I.) decides which meal he wants to have tomorrow. That way I can take anything out of the freezer and do whatever prep is necessary. He gets to pick what he is in the mood for and I plan from what I have in the freezer and pantry. Win/win.

  I caramelized large quantities of onions in my slow cooker or roaster and then freeze in quart bags.  I can then pull out yummy onions when I don’t have a lot of time to prep

  Becky you are deeply appreciated,I love all the things you do ,one little thing I love is how you get everything out of the bowl and don’t waste I’ve seen countless shows where they leave soo much behind,kind of a waste. And you are soooo kind and thoughtful of giving us all the recipes to the beautiful food you make! I enjoy every moment with you ,from shopping to cooking and harvesting keep up the good work you are a force to be reckoned with THANK YOU!!!

  You should pull all your rhubarb. They will get woody if you let them get too big. You can cut them up a put them in the freezer. They freeze very well. I usually do mine in a quart bag. You should look up a strawberry rhubarb sauce recipe. It’s so good.

  You motivated me to start cooking things from scratch when I started watching you maybe 2 years ago. I think it’s funny because I am making pulled pork, homemade brioche buns, homemade barbecue sauce (one for the crockpot and the other for the sandwich) and homemade coleslaw today. Finishing everything while watching this!

  My neighbor used to sell her rhubarb they had a 40x 100 lot that had rhubarb plants all the way around the circumference and she would take the rhubarb leaves when she sold and put them over the top of her compost bin and tuck it in tight and the heat from the rhubarb leaves would bake the compost down unbelievably quick.  Thought I would share a tip from an old-time Gardener in my neighborhood.  I don't live all that far away from Becky I live in Oregon.

  If your water is from a well on your property, consider filling up your sink with the dishwashing water, rather than just letting the water run. This is our 34th year with never any problems with our well. Grew up in the country on a well and married a man from the country on a well. So knew the tricks to not waste water(also resources given that have come free to us from nature). Also saves on dish soap too!😊❤

  Becky, love the brioche recipe! Just a thought, and something that I do when prepping for a recipe...get all of the needed ingredients out prior to actually beginning. Measure out each ingredient or have the required measuring cup or spoon right next to that ingredient or those that require the same amount, and put each one on the other side of your workplace when used, so that you don't have to question whether you used it or not. This makes things SO MUCH EASIER. 😊

  Thanks for your video&apos;s, Becky. I&apos;m from Perth, Western Australia. I&apos;m a single 58 years old woman whose kids have all grown up and left home. I live with Fibromyalgia, which has changed everything about my life and makes it difficult to have many hobbies. Not only that, but I used to cook everything from scratch when my kids were younger. For years now, I gave up on cooking as there&apos;s just me by myself. <br><br>Watching your video&apos;s has inspired me to get back into cooking. I love to cook simple, healthy meals for myself (Diabetes Type 2). Your recipes are easy to adapt for me. I swap out sugar for sweeter vegetables like red capsicum, snow peas, carrots etc. &nbsp;I love the idea of cooking enough so I can freeze individual meals for when I&apos;m in too much discomfort and exhausted. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br>So you&apos;ve inspired me and I want to thank you for that. Plus, you seem like a lovely lady, whose intelligent and compassionate. I love that you cook for your family and friends. I&apos;ll be making up a double salad with vegetables from my other hobby, my vegetable garden, for my neigh bough for today. I&apos;m going to try one of your chicken meals to go with that, and I can freeze the leftovers for dinners for next week. <br><br>Keep up the great work, and thank you again.
