I have the easiest tip to NOT CRY when chopping onions! (I know you mostly use your chopper, but in case you don't, try this: wet a paper towel and put it on the cutting board next to the onion. THAT'S IT! Apparently, onions have an acid that's attracted to water, which is why they attack our eyes. But the paper towel attracts the acid instead because it's more water. I can't believe this trick; you should try it and tell your other subscribers! The fact that I've been chopping them for years without this trick is incredible. No more tears, hahaha 🤯

If you double the recipes, you can freeze it & pull it out when you don't have a clue on what to cook or for whatever reason. I had cataract/glaucoma surgeries at the beginning of 2020, I double 4 recipes & it was enough for 16 meals over my healing process.

Use a fine grater and grater off the burned part. We use to have to do this everytime my mother in law made cookies.

[jessicamerkert]

I tried the Italian chicken recipe last week and my family loved it! I’m trying the sausage and potatoes tonight.

[mariannemuller]

I line my cookie sheets with parchment paper before I bake anything in the oven. Everything cooks better - especially biscuits! Plus, the clean-up is easier and my cookie sheets stay new looking!

[davidbourne]

I love the fact that you showed the burnt biscuits and you forgot to put the onion looks very tasty😂 seriously I’m gonna try this

[nyna]

You are truly my favorite! My fussy eater loves all your recipes. Not only do I save on food but less goes to the garbage can. Thank You.

[beatrice]

Thank you! The Italian chicken was great.. I brought the Olive Garden home for my husband and Daughter wo the huge bill

[jeanniehemmen]

I've made this before is so delicious but I added some sliced onions in mine gave it a lot of flavor

[kathyk]

These look so yummy, plus they don't heat up the kitchen. That's a winner by me. Thanks

[Mony]

Yes! I bought the chopper and it came in. I saw how easy it was when you were cooking with one child on your hip using the chopper. I also picked up the silicone baking mats. Love these vids keep’em coming!!

[WilletteB]

It's always good to see new easy crockpot meals. These will certainly work for my family with leftovers. Thanks, Abby. 🙂❤🤗

[sergioalfonsodiasvaldez]

I am dad, just trying to find easy and cheap recipes, so thanks so much for the excellent ideas. I had a question: in the pot pie recipe, how would you have used the onion that you forgot to put in? Thanks again!!

[jessicastreet]

I always burn the biscuits as well. Now I flip them half way through and... perfect!

[pigoff]

You are so lucky. My family either can't or wouldn't eat these. I would though. They sound delicious.

[sweetkentuckymama]

Wow! I had everything for frito pie so there’s my dinner. thank you!

[Kashmine]

Wow I'm amazed by the amount of can food you use! I'm not used to see this kind of food growing in a chinese family

[KarGaro]

The chopper is the best thing ever! I bought it when you first showed it a few months ago and I love it!

[ivettelily]

These recipes are right on my alley. I can't wait to make them. I want to share a tip from my son's pediatrician. A few years ago, she told me to cut the hot dogs and sausage lengthwise before I cut them on small pieces, not to cut them round because the round pieces are the same size as kid's throats and could be a shocking hazard. I hope this is helpful :)
