I had a little tip I wanted to tell you when you made the chocolate oatmeal cookies. If you are using honey, peanut butter or anything sticky like that just spray your cup or spoon with a little Pam and it will slide right out.

After you peel back the label, hit the container sharply on the edge of your counter and it will open up easily. And those all look yummy!

Reminds me of about 25 years ago when my granddaughter graduated and I made many different items for her party. I had forgotten this sort of recipe. I bought a package of 100 tiny frozen meatballs, put them in an old fashing electric pan that just heats food and then keeps it warm. I put in the meatballs, chili sauce, grape jelly, and smallest jar of mustard. Delicious. Thanks for the memory I needed it.

I use frozen homestyle meatballs (you can make your own) It's a jar of chili sauce and a can of jellied cranberry sauce (whole berry or not). Cook it in the crockpot on low 4 hours! It's super simple and delicous!

Mandy, we went deer hunting for a week in our camper. I checked out some of your recipes and made them while we were camping. I made your pulled pork, with slaw; crock pot cherry pie dessert; creamy loaded potato soup, but I added 2 cups of shredded Velveeta cheese (wow!,) and my favorite crock pot chicken and noodles. The food was delicious and the hunt was a success. Our granddaughter got a deer and everyone loved your recipes. My husband is not a fan of pulled pork, but I think adding the beer to the recipe just really tenderized the meat and he loved it and asked if I would make it again. That’s the first time in 50 years that he has asked me to make pulled pork again. The sauce was absolutely delicious. I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you for making them! Debbie in Missouri💕💕

These look good and I definitely plan to try them. An appetizer you might want to try is sausage/cheese cups or squares. Brown 1 lb of good ground sausage, drain. Add 1/2 cup of ranch dressing and 1/2 cup of cheese (I use whatever cheese I have, usually cheddar). To make cups, put a heaping tablespoon of sausage mixture in mini filo cups, top with more cheese. Cook a few minutes to melt cheese. To make the squares, roll out crescents rolls and put in a 9x13 pan (seal perforations). Cook for about 6 or 7 minutes. Then spread the sausage mixture on the partially cooked crescent rolls and top with another pkg. of crescent rolls (seal the perforations). Bake at 375 for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Delicious!
