I made the rice in the oven and it was perfect. Thank you so much for sharing Me Me.

Oh my goodness Miss Meme. You just taught this 74 yr old grannie a beautiful way to do my rice!!! Thank you so much!!!❤❤

Mrs. Diane reminds me of my mom.

Newly subscribed. Love everything you cook. And that was quite the spread you had at the end! ❤

I am a new subscriber. I have learned some new ways to cook. Love everything you fix. I will try the oven baked rice right away.My husband is from South Carolina and you know he loves rice! Thank you for your videos MeMe!

Oh how I enjoy your videos. You truly love cooking and sharing your recipes. Your emphasis on family gatherings is heart warming. Your kindness and faith are the best ingredients in your kitchen. Please keep providing these lessons.

I agree with the chicken broth! I use it all the time when I cook. Actually, Swanson is the only one I use. ❤

This was a fun tutorial video Ms. Diane. I don't know if you knew this or not, but I learned that Lima Beans are also known as Butter Beans in the south.

Love this channel and her recipes!

I love yellow, crook neck/straight neck, squash. Visalia onions are seasonal but I love them too. Thanks for helping me cook my favorite vegetable better! Butter and onions yeah, sounding great MeMe! Thank you God bless you and your family We see you shine for Jesus by your cooking and laughing with us.

I love your videos! 🫂 Your recipes, tips and tricks. But, especially when you talk about getting together with FAMILY. ❣️ Those are some of my most treasured memories.❣️ It's difficult to explain the JOY that filled my heart when we would all gather together. (My Mom was one of six children and my husband was one of six children.) So much love filled one home! Grandparents, parents, Uncles, Aunts (we also had a Beloved MeMe) children, spouses, grandchildren, great-grandchildren + great-great grandchildren, friends and neighbors too - for decades. Our circle of love knew no boundaries. I was so very Blessed. My sister-in-laws and I didn't even have to talk about what we were going to bring, everyone had their signature dishes. Your videos remind me of Happier days gone by. Yes, the hours were long but the years were short. Treasure those times spent together and don't forget to SHINE FOR JESUS!

I laugh every time you say that you are heating the oven to 350 Degrees. I will occasionally ask my husband to turn the oven on for me and he says “OK on 350 Degrees). I guess I cook everything on 350 just like you do. PS. I am an Alabama girl and you have featured some recipes that are exactly the same as my recipe for the same thing. My mother was a cook that could make a boiled egg taste delicious. She had some funny things that she would say about cooking. We still laugh at something that she would say when she was frying okra, she would say “Don’t touch my okra, I don’t want it SCRAMBLED “. What she meant was that she didn’t want it stirred like lots of folks do because she flipped it, one spatula at a time to keep the batter from falling off. She lived with me the last 5 years of her life and she “TAUGHT” me to cook it like she did. When we have family gatherings, everyone tells me to please make mothers okra. I go right to KZfaq every time a notification pops up saying that you have a new video posted. We southern ladies are fantastic cooks aren’t we. Love your channel ❤️

Love you Mimi❤

I simply adore watching your videos. Not only to watch your cooking but, to listen to your voice. My grandmother, who left us at 99 in 1989 and your voice are IDENTICAL! She was from North Georgia so she got it honest. Thank you for your videos and sharing your life. I must admit, I envy your family gatherings and groups in your home.

My favorite vegetable akso❤

I love me some MeMe's recipes! Thank you Miss MeMe for sharing your gift and love of cooking with us! You are a true blessing to all of the lives you have touched. May God's love and light continue to shine through you onto others. Again, thank you...

Love the channel! Thank you MeMe!

Thank you!

Thank you for sharing. I’ll have to try to cook some rice in the oven. I’ve cooked dishes that have rice i. Them 8n the oven, but never plain rice. I’m 73, so I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.❤️✝️

Love you! Hugs from Nashville t n.

I didn't know about baking rice. I'll try it. I noticed that you use a spoon, in this case to stir squash. My Mom had one of those, that I got after she passed. It's wonderful for scooping ice cream. The best. I enjoy your videos, & I have tried a number of your recipes with great success. Thank you

Looks delicious! I was eyeing the chocolate pie at the end too ❤ Thank you for all the cooking instructions.

Love you, Mrs. Diane

I'm gonna call you Grandma Meme when I talk to you on here. And I just want to say Grandma Meme, I could watch you cook all day!! You cook the stuff I grew up eating. I live in VA. My mother hardly ever cooks now and I miss that 😢 I lost my deddy in 2021 so I have been grieving that and having a hard time with it. I know where he is though and one day I will be there with him. But your videos really bring back my childhood of the food I used to enjoy. GODBLESS YOU!!

I was watching your pork chops and rice video and it looked so incredibly delicious, I had to come watch this video so I could see how to do the rice in the oven. I've got rice in the oven right this moment and some cream of chicken and herbs soup waiting to mix in when it's finished. Cannot wait 😊 Thanks so much for sharing all of your wonderful family recipes ❤

Thank you so much you are a wonderful cook and as always you make cooking easy and fun. Can't wait to get your cook book.

You are such a wonderful cook God bless you for the things you do for your family and such a hard worker.

Mahatma is an excellent brand for long-grain white rice. I have always used a rice cooker to make my rice but I will try your method next time.

Congratulations MeMe on learning to cook your rice in the oven. My mother, when she was alive, used to cook the most fantastic red rice 🍚 on top of the stove for fish fry Friday’s every Friday and it wasn’t until she passed that a member of her church actually approached me and asked if I knew how to cook red rice like my mother. You see mother used to pride herself on “tending” her cooking and I just never had the time to do that. So, I learned to cook most rice dishes in the oven. However, rice perleau with chicken, jambalaya, and hoppin’ John are better tended on stovetop. Also, I have a first cousin who is a fabulous cook and she can bake her macaroni and cheese on top of the stove. Ah…the joys of living, eating, and preparing good food! Always love.

That all looks so amazing! I am Mimi too. I tell my grand daughter, it's always an adventure. I goof up a lot but it keeps things interesting!

Is there anything better than down home Southern cooking? I think not. I've been cooking my rice like that for a while and itsit's always perfect. No more messy stove top boil over.

I have a May birthday, too!😊.Wish I could celebrate with y'all. My mom makes a squash and onion casserole with the same ingredients but layered in a casserole and dotted with butter throughout and on top. Cover and bake.😋

I’m a new subscriber & I just want to Thank you for your wonderful recipes & showing us exactly how to cut the veggies Love listening to you & at the the end “Shine for Jesus!” I was wondering, what brand of pots & pans do you use? I need a big pot like the one you cooked your Squash & onions in.. looks perfect for cooking pasta for spaghetti 😀🙋‍♀️🌹🌹🌹

Hello I follow you from France, since today ! I subcribed because I love your personnality and your recipes seems wonderful ! Even if I'll have to adjust for the temperatures and the " cups " ( I don't have cups to mesure ! ) Thanks for being so kind ! Laetitia from Toulouse.

We always forgot to put out the coleslaw for Thanksgiving...now ee do it on purpose and serve cole slaw wirh turkey sandwiches

What a Beautiful Sunday dinner. ❤

Have you ever bought , that same brand , baby Lima peas? They are so good! They are tiny seeet butter beans.

4:06 Thank you so much MeMe for your delicious recipes! I have one question if you don’t mind, what size baking dish do you use for your oven baked rice?

Thanks I never knew this

Please...how can I order your cookbooks? I really enjoy your recipes and presentation!

I wish you were my grandma.

Did you clip your rice with a clothespin? I use old fashioned clothespins to clip bags and things.

I am glad I am not the only one that has to use wire pliers to open tops! My hands just can't grip things vlike they use to

❤

😂❤

I'm going to try your squash cutting tip.

Hello, I am a new subscriber and love your videos. After binge watching your videos i tried to order your cookbook but it says out of stock or sold out, cannot remember which. I signed up for email notices and am hoping you will send an email blast when they are back in stock. At first I was going to get a cook book just for me BUT then the light bulb went off and I realized, your recipes are so easy to make and also to follow that this is what I need to get my two daughters to cook more and get the confidence that will then have them want and enjoy cooking. I am not a measuring type of person for the recipes taught to me by my mom and dad with Mexican food cooking. I grew up with. I measure with the palm of my hand and you have encouraged me to write what recipes I know for my daughters with actual measurements, but not for an actual cookbook, just to help them cook what they say is to hard to cook.. I know you're cookbook will help them learn and again, get that confidence.

For an addional variation of the squash and onions, once they're done, stir in some shredded cheddar cheese, and let it melt in.

What kind of flowers are in your window? They look like tulip poplar flowers we have here in the smokies.

MeMe, thanks for directing me to this video. My family isn't large enough to cook 3 cups of rice. If I cook 1 cup, do I still let it bake for an hour? Thank you!

How do you cook or heat up the casseroles and oven dishes so that they are all hot at the same time??

Hi Ms Diane! How do you reheat your Rice?👩‍🍳🤔

Meme, but you are a classy lady

Howvm can I get your cookbook.

That’s my trick. Forget the salad in the fridge🤦‍♀️

How old do I order your cookbook? Thanks. Audra :)

Having trouble gutting you on KZfaq what's up with that.

I always wash my rice to remove the extra gluten
