Mandy, did you know that honey contains a lot of natural beneficial enzymes that are really good for you? Unfortunately, they are destroyed by using metal utensils in it (such as a spoon). That's why honey dippers are made of wood.

And the benefits are there especially for diabetics, only if the honey raw and unheated.

We from the South call it "Vi-Dell-Ya Onion. They are my very favorite! Very similar to TX 1015. It's over 100 already here in DFW so anything that doesn't require heating up the house from the use of the oven is a winner in my book. Who needs expensive P.F. Chang's when we've got Mandy???

I'm glad I could share a laugh with y'all. My late grandmother used to say a good laugh keeps the doctor away.

Every time I watch you guys I just feel like home.. home with good people and good food. Thank you for working hard and making these videos!

Stephen is so sweet to appreciate your meals. My husband lost his sense of taste and smell from COVID, bless him he never knows if I make a good meal or not. You miss hearing that Oh Yeah That Taste Great from a meal.

We just call that salad, cucumbers and onions in WV . I grew up eating that never thought about it being Asian. Great recipes love watching y'all keep up the great work. Much love from WV

My grandma (RIP) used to make a similar cucumber onion vinegar salt pepper and sugar salad.... No Asian flair, but it was cool and refreshing and tasty on a hot summer day. I think I'll try that one first... and then the lettuce wraps.

Y'all seem to enjoy Asian food and spice. May I suggest, making chili crunch, or chili crisp. It can be used for loads of things, not just Asian food. And it's SO easy! Whatever recipe you choose, it must have, minimum, hot pepper flakes (easy choice since we all have this), garlic, onions (or shallots), bit of sugar, and veggie oil. I promise you'll regret not having it available before. Yum!! By the by, I've not been disappointed with any of your recipes.👍

I use pork chops with a similar Asian style marinade. Then throw them on the grill. A favorite with grilled Brussels Sprouts & potatoes...all cooked outside.

I was born and raised in Georgia... Everyone I ever knew, family, friends and even strangers say Vidalia with the 'i' part of the 'vi' pronounced with the sound of the 'i' in 'hi' ... Loving these summer recipes. Thank you and God bless.

Yes, here in Georgia we say vi-dell-ya

For my Asian inspired cucumber salad…I’m not coordinated enough to use chopsticks so I dice or grate my veggies. It makes it easier to eat them with a spoon. I use 1 cucumber, 1 carrot, 1 cup cabbage, ½ of a red bell pepper, ½ of an onion, and a couple of green onions. For my sauce I mix together 1 Tbsp light soy sauce, 1 Tbsp rice vinegar, 1½ tsp gochujang (Korean chili paste), A pinch of salt, 1 tsp sugar, 1½ tsp gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes), 2 garlic cloves, pressed and 1 tsp sesame oil. I toss the veggies in the sauce until everything is well coated. Put a lid on the bowl and place n the fridge to marinate for a while. Serve cold and keep in the fridge, but for no longer than a week.

Hi Mandy 👋 I know that you enjoy Butcher Box but have you heard of Good Chop?? I watched a video on Facebook of a gentleman who reviewed both. With Good Chop you don't pay more to curate your own Box and it's $20 less. You get just as much food if not more. Also, Butcher Box gets most of their meat from Australia and Good Chop only sources from the United States!! I just thought I'd share this information!!

I love Stephen’s reaction and his enthusiasm with every bite of food

Im going to make the Asian grilled chicken skewers but im going to add pineapple chucks.

Oh goodness, I love Asian style food, and these all look wonderful! I love how your family is so appreciative of your efforts, that is priceless!

These recipes all look so good. Thank you Mandy 😊

Loved this video; the recipes here really look scrumptious and I think I will try the lettuce wraps first. They look so refreshing! Thank you Mandy for your hard work you put into these videos. Steven's facial expressions and Cole's appearances always tell how good things are; I love it!❤😊

I just adore you & Stephen so much! My husband & I watch all your videos together and normally make every single one of them! Do you all normally always eat at home, or eat out as well? My husband would much rather I cook cause he says my cooking is better than any restaurant lol 😅

I've done those skewers before, but with a little zucchini added to the mix. The other thing I did (since, as Steven said, I was entertaining), was soak the skewers in bourbon. Slightly quicker to cook (since alcohol burns) and left a nice oakey flavor behind. Then I lost my grill, but got a griddle instead. It works the same way, for those of you that have a griddle. You just have to be absolutely sure to turn them, or they'll burn on one side, and no one wants that.

I love cucumber and onion salad. Remember it from my childhood and still enjoy. All of these look delicious. I’ll use chicken breasts instead of thighs. I just can’t get my tastebuds to like them. Anyway. I look forward to trying them. You and your family have a great 4th celebration with all your family. ❤😊

These Kabobs look and sound Amazing! I'm gonna do them with the Cucumber Salad! I love Cucs and Onions so Yeah, Why Not! The Lettuce Wraps, Ohh Yeah! Right up my holler! Thank you Mandy! You're my Favorite cook girlfriend! ❤❤

I don't have a grill, but it sure is something I would love to try!!! I'm going to share this video with my Sister, I know her family will love these recipes!!! 👍👍

Love these! Enjoy the 4th! 😊😊

I am currently on vacation in Surfside Beach / Myrtle Beach from Pittsburgh. I know you're still a couple hours away, but close enough for a hey y'all shout out.❤S.C.

I make a lot of your recipes, but i have never commented before. Those lettuce wraps flew off the plates. I should have doubled the recipe. Thank you for all the recipes you share. God bless you all!!

I think I'm going to try the kabobs and the cucumber salad first. Yesterday I made pork chops and stuffing. I also made green beans and bacon your way. My husband hates green beans but loved them this way. I have been trying a lot of your recipes on the 3 pickey eaters I feed every day, they are cleaning their plates. Thank you for all the good dinner ideas.

Love these recipes. Thanks! Can't wait to try them.

Thank you for sharing summer recipes. It's going to be between 105F and 111F all of next week (July 3-11) here in the San Joaquin Valley of California. It's drier heat than you all get in SC but hot is hot. Feels like walking into a hot oven. It's too hot for children to play outside, so they play early and late. All you hear in the afternoon is the hum of the A/C condensers. No one is outside . . . the asphalt on the street gets tacky. I merely endure summer and am wishing autumn would arrive soon . . . bet you are a bit or more too. Thanks for sharing!

Wow everything looked amazing !!!

These sound fantastic!

My mouth is watering!! 😋

Theses look amazing!

they all look really delicious 🍽

Can't wait to make these chicken skewers on the grill so as not to heat up the kitchen. Y'all have a great 4th and thanks for sharing.

I hope Gracie Lou is alright. Hope she feels better soon. ❤️🙏🌷🍀❤️🙏🌷🍀❤️🙏🌷🍀

I can’t wait to make these, Asian flavors are one of our favorites! Have a blessed weekend!

All looks great

Yummy ❤❤ and now I'm hungry.

These sound like great summer meals when it’s hot out. Thank you for sharing. 🦩

The cheese grater is also handy for almonds 😎 So glad I saw that on your channel ages ago, use it often 👍 May try the wraps and salad this week. Love the Mongolian noodle recipe, have made several times.

All 3 of these looked wonderful & best of all, quick and easy. Thanks Mandy🤗

Yeeesss! These recipes are right up my alley! I've cut carbs, mostly, out of my diet so I will be making all of these recipes. They all look delicious! Have a great weekend y'all. Love from Texas ❤

Mindy, add fresh mint leaves to this dish also. Awesome sauce !!!!

Awesome recipes, Mandy👍❤️❤️❤️

They all looked so good. Thanks

Love the cumcumber salad, but i chop the cumcumber not thinly sliced, red union, chili pepper. You could this as a side dish with rice, sate or grilled fish. Also a great summer dish is Gado gado. It's an Indonesian salad that goes well with the grilled skewers, rice and a good homemade peanut sauce. You should try that. Have a wonderful weekend

I am trying the lettuce wraps, they look delicious!

I want to try all these! Yummy!

These all look delicious! I can't wait to try them!😊

They all sound delicious. I love how your family is willing to try all kinds of foodsl

I’m definitely am trying these three dishes. They look so yummy!

Everything looks so delicious! We just got about a dozen beautiful cucumbers out of our garden last night, and I am planning on making a cucumbers sandwich for sure, but I'm going to use a few and make that salad! We cut one last night and it was so good! It didn't taste like the ones in the store, it tasted like my childhood! Oh my goodness! The taste was unbelievable! I'm so thankful to God for blessing us with the bounty, and praying for our tomatoes and cabbage to do good too! Thank you Mandy for these delicious recipes! I can't wait to try them! Have a blessed weekend! 💕

Thai is my favorite international flavor profile. Having made enough to know, 😊that lettuce wrap looks GOOD!😊

I am so excited to try the lettuce wraps! I love the PF Changs wraps I’m sure we’ll love these! Thanks for sharing!
