I think you have the most fulfilling life I’ve seen of anybody here on KZread.

From being a teenager to now being 27, I’ve learned so much from you. Your videos have always been so enjoyable and peaceful. Thank you for staying with KZread!

Your videos are unmatched! There is no other KZreadr who has videos as peaceful as yours! They are so serene! Sometimes I make myself my favorite drink or a cup of tea and just sit down and relax. Thank you for being you and also showing your love for the Lord on your platform❤

That dinner looks so good Rachel! Comforting yet not heavy. Isn’t it wonderful to go pick herbs and toss them into whatever you’re making? I love doing that. Your home looks so peaceful. Glad you are enjoying it there ❤

Love these thumbnails! Kind of a throwback. Also now I’m craving chili and rice!

I love this calming video, Rachel. Your ideas are really helpful, esp eating earlier and not going to bed on a full stomach...I had to laugh, because when I saw you had a new video up, I went to your youtube channel and an old video from 2012 or 2013 popped onto the screen. It was you getting ready for a night out, and you were dressed to the nine's, in full makeup and high heels. Reminded me of how, not that many years ago, I would quite frequently be leaving the house at 10pm or so to go out dancing. That doesn't really happen anymore, altho I still love to dance! Funny how we mature and change as time goes on. Love your wonderful videos!❤

Thanks Rachel

Finally a youtuber that soaks beans and doesn't use canned good 😅. Canning is not such a bad thing sometimes, but I never see recipes here on KZread where legumes are fresh and soaked. And it's healthier and economical

Thanks for sharing your night time routine. Sleep is essential.

Loving all your videos. Always looking forward to the next one. Beans and rice are delish. Yours looks so inviting with the fresh herbs 🌿 I have never had lemon balm tea but I'm going to get some. Thank you for your inspiration 🙏

Yes! I’ve implemented eating early dinners for my family too! I feel like its helped so much with digestion and stay on track whenever Im fasting

Rachel, even after all of this time you are a breath of fresh air. Also, you are living my dream life 😂 praying I get to be in your position one day! ❤

Loving seeing more videos from you! So nice to have you back on a more regular basis. Such a gentle relaxing video thank you Rachel!

I will have to try this! Thank you for the suggestion!

I really enjoy the "retro" style (:DD) thumbnails, it really stands out in the other usual ones! I totally agree with others, you really use too much retinA and it can cause problems not just on your skin but even in your liver if you use it too much or for too long... please make sure you only use it for a couple weeks at a time and just very sparingly! I am generally a very anxious person and a bad sleeper. so I have quite a few things I do around bedtime to make sure I can sleep as well as possible. maybe it can help someone :) 1) every night I make sure to eat a protein heavy but small dinner (protein rice pudding from aldi/lidl) along with a turmeric golden milk. it helps so so much! everyone should try it, it is really amazing :)) (1 cup of warm milk, 1 ts honey, 1/2 ts turmeric, 1/8 ts cinnamon, 1 pinch of pepper) 2) if I'm really stressed, passionflower extract capsules are my lifesavers! they do not make me sedated, but they really help having my nerves soothed. they are not medicine, just a plant extract and generally very safe to use. 3) melatonin/triptophane are great supplements for sleep, but can cause migraines, so everyone should be mindful of their consumption :) (sleep pouch does not have these, just saying in general)

I could be wrong, but I thought that red beans or kidney beans are the only beans you shouldn't cook in the crock pot because it doesn't get hot enough to denature the substance in them that can upset your digestive tract?

Thats rajma chawal

I was born and raised in Louisiana and in real Southern red and white beans... there is NO VEGETARIAN/VEGAN VERSION, EVER! It is just NOT done! AND it's not generally made in a crock pot but on the stovetop with a lot of patience, tending, and sausage. Y'all need to come to take these Southern Soul Food lessons in New Orleans (New Orlinzzz, to pronounce it correctly!) Our beans are NEVER "PLANT BASED!"... Nothing is "Plant-Based in a REAL SOUTHERN KITCHEN!!! That is reserved strictly for California...! Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - and there are NO imitations!!! We Cajuns are SERIOUS about it!!! ALSO - YOU MUST RINSE, DRAIN, SOAK OVERNIGHT, AND DRAIN YOUR BEANS (EVERY TIME YOU MAKE THIS DISH!) Is it safe to cook red beans in a slow cooker? The FDA has the best recommendation when it comes to cooking red kidney beans. Southern cooks, including us Cajuns, suggest soaking the beans overnight and then boiling them for 30 minutes. This is a crucial step because slow cookers or crockpots can't reach the boiling point of 212°F. If you prepare beans in a slow cooker without soaking and boiling them first, they can carry the toxic lectin. So, it's not just a matter of taste, but also your safety. It's important to follow the proper method to ensure your safety and enjoyment of this Southern staple. And when serving this lovely dish, (white beans, too!), we love to put a big scoop of the rice in the middle of the bowl first, and then spoon a heaping helping of the red beans and sausage (and YES the RIGHT kind of sausage matters!!), down over top. AND - look up Oak Ridge, Tennessee. It's a city that was made in absolute secret! And anything outside of Louisiana is FAKE!!!! Just letting you know!!! We Cajuns are a PROUD people!! 1. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qa2Bx7KAh6vTfbQ.htmlsi=7pFJtfQXi9JcfS1x - Laissez Laissez les bon temps rouler (lay-zay lay bon ton rule-lay): Let the good times roll!
