My husband has gotten used to hearing your name, Becky. I am one of the 70 yr old Nana’s that have gotten back into food preservation and make-ahead meals for those busy days. At lunch, we ran out of mayo and I told him I was going to try making my own. He said, you should… channel your inner Becky! Lol! You ARE an inspiration! Thanks for choosing this as your business!

My daughter also gave birth to a daughter in the early hours of the 8/4/24 but I haven’t been much help as I’m a full time carer for my hubby,but I’m going to prep her a few meals for the freezer so she can rest with the little one without having to stress about cooking a meal for her partner when he comes home from work.This vlog has given me some good ideas.

You are so generous and I love this for your family x I would feel so inferior as your sister in law! (I can't cook!) But I'd be so grateful 🙏

Just retired (high school teacher). I’ve been cooking a lot for friends and family. Thanks for the new ideas and will start gardening again. Have not done any of this for a very long time. Thank you from Atlanta, Georgia.

You are a great sister. Not only are you providing her and her family delicious meals, but you are cooking what she asked for. I absolutely love it. ❤️ ❤

Becky, you are a beautiful soul. You’re not only helping your sister but you’re helping so many people with your vlogs. Josh fell in love with you because you’re just as beautiful on the outside as you are in your heart and spirit. I’m sure the meal was just a lovely bonus 😊. Thank you for your light in this sometimes dark world. We need more Becky’s in this world ❤

Adding carrots to red sauce is GENIUS!! Thanks for that tip.

So, several years ago when you started prepping your freezer meals, I started doing them, too. However, since my handwriting is illegible and I gift a lot of meals, I bought 4x5" labels in bulk and used an online well known label design application to type up all the different labels. All I write in is the date, # of servings and I left 2 lines on the bottom for notes. Everything else is already preprinted and saves me from making mistakes or omissions. For some folks that have allergies, I also later added a list of basic ingredients (like "includes dairy, butter, soy, wheat, corn, etc). The labels have been a game changer and eliminated any questions.

I cannot think of a more wonderful and supportive gift than this for an expectant mother, especially one with two other children already! Your sister will no doubt think of you with love and gratitude each time she makes up any of these to feed their family. I've NO idea how you're able to get SO MANY MEALS made in such a short time frame...well, actually that's not entirely true. I kinda do. You worked your butt off putting up all the produce from your garden so that you could just open jars and frozen veg in freezer bags to make up things more quickly! But still, it's AMAZING how many meals and treats you managed to make up in one long morning...absolutely amazing. So loving and supportive of you!

Seeing so many homesteader/ family channels, I am SO happy that you do not put your child in the public eye! What you leave out of your videos is every bit as important as what you put in. I have a 13-year-old granddaughter and had to tell her mother, my daughter, #1 My granddaughter's profile picture was WAY too mature for her (then) 10-year-old self. I then backed that up with how many sex offenders lived less than 5 miles from their house. Our children only get ONE childhood, guard it and guide them! If we don't, the wrong people will.

WHAT A SWEET SISTER YOU ARE shes so bleesed to have you

I have the easiest way to make lasagna. Don’t use the lasagna pasta. My Momma always made what she called “Lazy Mama‘a Lasagna. Everything is the same ingredients, but she would use the Bow Tie pasta. Cook Bow ties So they’re slightly firm. Drain pasta. Than mix/turn in all ingredients . Pour in into pan. And bake of freezer. NO more layering Ingredients hold it all together

Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your kitchen and all the wonderful recipes! I have been watching for a few weeks and just completed my first big batch cooking of freezer meals. I am a widow and found it hard to scale back and just cook for myself, so usually just shared what I made with my daughters or parents or friends so I didn't eat the same thing several days in a row. I was in the habit of cooking a few meals on Saturday and just re-heating throughout the whole week. My oldest daughter works second shift and mentioned it has been hard to cook healthy meals when she is tired after her shift or got busy and forgot to thaw meat before leaving for work. She has issues with her blood pressure and wanted to stop getting fast food or restaurant meals so much due to amount of sodium in them. I decided your meal planning/freezer meals would be the answer for both of us. I printed a ton of recipes from your videos and other websites and put them in a 3 ring binder in sheet protectors (I ended up with 2 of the 3 ring binders full). I also included several of my own tried-and=true recipes just to have everything in the same place. I spent a day shopping at Costco and Aldi and the next day started cooking. It took me 2 days (5 to 6 hours each) because I can't stand for long periods of time due to injuries from car accident years ago. I ended up with 6 different breakfast meals and 14 dinner meals for each of us. I made the lasagna noodles, tortillas, and sub rolls from scratch. Total cost was $290 which we split. I packaged my meals into smaller portions so ended up with more bags/containers than she did, but now I won't have to eat the same thing several days in a row and we both have nutritious meals ready to go that will last us quite awhile. Her husband loved what he ate so far and said we need to do again and they both will help so it goes faster and doesn't flare up my pain levels as much. I am looking forward to that as it will be quality time together too! Thank you for the inspiration! I have been baking since I was 5 and love spending time in the kitchen, but your process helped me kick it up another level. You are a blessing!

What a sweet and kind gift for your sister! I wish I had someone to do that for me when I had 4 children! You are such a hard worker Becky and I love your videos! Q: could you do some freezer meals for one person? Comfort food for a 73 year old! LOL! ♥

I haven't seen this video yet; I've been busy browsing your website! Josh built it, right? Great job. I was a web designer/content developer before I retired, so I know a competently built site when I see one. I just love the flower motif on your new guide. The depth of info on the overall site is excellent as well. But I would expect that level of quality from the two of you! What a great resource!

Congratulations to your sister! I have 3 and each time is different so it’s awesome you have the forethought and giving personality to have her covered ❤

Hi Becky first time viewer (and now subscriber) here! I just wanted to say what a wonderful sister you are. I lost one of my sisters years ago and just feeling the love you have for your family through cooking was a beautiful thing to stumble across. I wish you and your family health and happiness!

You are such a considerate sister. How nice of you to make all of those meals for her and think about providing her with disposable dishes. You're the best!

I found your channel about 2 weeks ago at 75 I really enjoy new recipes you are great and I have really really enjoyed it watching you I will follow you as long as I'm here God bless you Grandma Judy from Louisiana

I used this exact lactation cookie recipe with both my babies and they taste and work really well. One of the big advantages of the brewer’s yeast is that it’s extremely rich in iron, which mamas often need postpartum. However, one thing to note is that the body needs copper in order to absorb iron efficiently; so, I add a scoop of pumpkin seeds (rich in copper) to maximize the nutrition. It also just tastes yummy and adds great crunch.

Such a blessing. All the very best to your sister and the family! My husband loves when he comes in and hears your voice coming through, he says with delight "Becky!". He knows I get inspired to do more meal preps after watching your videos. :)

Woo hoo! A new video

You have inspired me. I did a double batch of strawberry jam, double batch of triple berry jam and strawberry lemonade concentrate. I am planning my freezer meal cooking day now. I have made your parmesan chicken twice. It is so good. I have a Blackstone. I love it. Krusteaz has the best store brought mix. You should buy paper plates and forks in bulk since you do a lot of meals for people. They never go bad.

You are a great sister! Wow! You have a lovely family.

I love your videos so much. I’m a vegan, so I can’t follow your recipes exactly but you inspire me so much to bulk cook and simply make swaps on recipes that you’re making to fit my dietary preferences. Thanks for everything!

I live, mostly, on my own, as my daughter is away at college. These ideas and recipes will help me as I don’t always want to cook a meal as such, when it’s just me. I can batch cook and put in the freezer and take out my single portions as and when I want them. Plus it will also help if my daughter makes an unannounced trip home, and I’ll have meals for her to eat, without worrying. Thankyou so much Becky xx

Your videos have reminded me about freezer meals ahead. I started about a month ago in that direction. Today I enjoyed the benefits. I pulled a meal for the crock pot while I made a double batch of oatmeal raisin choc chip cookie dough. i made some cookies and froze most in pan ready form. I portioned out my Greek yoghurt in "pucks" for individual servings and froze them. Then I cleaned a kitchen drawer and vacuumed! That was it for me! I was happy to have my frozen meal bail me out! My goal is to start doing more freezer meals. I only have the stamina for a few hours on my feet these days. But it does help. Thanks for your time and sharing. 😊💛🐸💚🐸😎

My daughter is highly allergic to avocados and she isn’t really a cook, so probably doesn’t know avocado oil is a thing and she wouldn’t know to watch for it.
