But she fried the patties part way and mixed the onion soup mix and we used cream of celery soup and I think water or maybe milk and mixed it all up in a jar and poured it over the patties and finished cooking the patties.

really enjoyed watching. This is not something we would eat here in England. but it looks so tasty - I'll certainly be giving it a try. Thank you again.

I only had 1 can of cream of mushroom soup in a similar dish. So I used a can of cream of potato. Those little tiny potatoes and great texture and flavor. I now use them in my tuna casserole as well. Just a suggestion for y'all! 😉. ,😋

I’m a lot older than you . But you remind me so much of my mama and me years ago . My mother’s kitchen was so small my daddy bought some metal cabinets and metal sink . We always had grand kids around usually bout 8 at a time always there . Didn’t live there but they were there all under 9 and under mama went 24 seven but always had us good food and deserts for the youngins . She taught me a lot . Miss her so especially in winter time . We had it hard but they never let us know just how hard . It was love magic word . God bless you and your family. One thing don’t ever apologize to us for anything got cooking . Your the cook . ❤️👍

I fixed this for supper tonite. I put over noodles...addef a can of cr of chicken soup n 1 mushroom soup. Also made the green beans like yours only i also added a bit of bacon grease. Oh my...everything was so good. Thank you again for some delicious recipes....❤

The one that fell from my finger tips, shes an Angel flying too close to the ground....Hell of a cook'

That hamburger and gravy look good. I am going to try it

That sure looks like a very yummy dinner I will try that very soon

I have found for absolutely perfect rice...after it comes to a boil..turn down to the lowest setting on stove..covered..time ten minutes. Remove from heat..don't remove lid..time ten more minutes without touching. After ten minutes remove lid and fluff with a fork. Perfect every time without sticking together..and without being overcooked. I love using Jasmine rice! Your recipe looks good.

I make that same gravy with my pork chops and gravy...leave 2 to 3 tablespoons of drippings in the pan after frying the pork chops, add the soup, and my goodness...out of this world. You are right...always have cream of mushroom soup...makes the best gravy...yum! I love hamburgers and gravy.

Brenda I have a recipe for you. My mom called it cabbage casserole. I cut all my veggies first which is cabbage, potatoes in round pieces, 2 onions and baby carrots. (Optional) In large pan that goes in oven rotate your veggies starting with cabbage. When finished put approx. 2 lb hamburger ovet top of veggies. Pour 1 regular can tomato sauce over top. No water. Cover with lid or tin foil and cook til cabbage is tender. I don't time anything but about 2 hrs. Its a one dish meal and i usually serve it with corn bread.

Food safety is after handling raw meat wash your hands with soap and water before touching anything else. I enjoyed watching your video very much. Thanks for making it call me your food looks great!

When I was a kid my ma made her version of this meal. It is an awesome meal. Thanks for reminding me.

I learned on my own to season my green beans with some bacon & a whole small onion I stab in several places. My grandpa's family was from down in the mountains of KY. My great great grandma lived to be 101, 1 month & 1 day. Her single daughter who was a nurse lived with her. God bless, love you both.

I love your aprons, I love your videos and your cooking. You cook like me, by taste, not by recipe. I just watched my first video and am going to try to find your parmesan chicken and spaghetti sauce. Thank you, Brenda.

Brenda, my son in law is Korean. He showed me the best way to do the rice. I use basmati or jasmine, whatever amount I’m using in rinse it thoroughly with cold water until the water runs clear. Then set the rice in water to soak for at least 30 minutes prior to cooking. Then drain your rice. Then I always make sure my water is on full boil THEN I put the rice in after the water is full boil. Let the water come back to full boil then turn it down in lowest setting for 10 minutes. It cooks much faster this way and it always comes out perfect. Fluffy and light. I also add a a half teaspoon of salt in the boiling water before adding my rice. Love your channel.

Looks delicious. Great meal. Im watching some of your oldies.

I love watching you, you are real nothing false about you, just honest to goodness folk. I also like hearing your accent, I'm Scottish and live in England. Keep on with your channel I love you both. Huggles (that's my word for a hug and a cuddle together) xxxAnnxxx
