Way to go Zay. I love cooking and think it is the single greatest thing to teach young adults. It can save a lot of money (you don't eat out every day). Cooking is so easy....just make sure you have all ingredients & follow directions. Today, Super Bowl Sunday, i am making something i have never made before...Chickpea Taquitos. I cant wait to try these later. Peter or Zay can you leave a link to the recipe you made in the comments?

It's always so heartwarming to see Zay (and Maddie) in your videos. He seems like such a great guy who is happy in his life. It was very sweet to see him and Isabella prepare the crock pot part of the meal together. I'm guessing this was filmed a while ago when he was actually still a teen....but now that he's 20 you can't lump him in that category any more.

Here's a tip: if you want to reduce the cooking time, next time try a rotisserie chicken. Since it's already cooked, you don't have to take so much time making it. But yeah, I love making these slow cooked crockpot recipes in my solar oven because I can put everything in in the morning and have perfectly cooked food by lunchtime or dinner time depending on how sunny and cold it is outside. Next time you have a very long and slow coming time, try starting the meal in the morning or lunchtime so that it'll be ready by lunch and dinner, respectively.

Zay you did a great job. I love that you let Isabella assist you. You can also use soft taco shells to make the pizza rolls. If you use the bigger shells, you only have to eat one. Definitely not chicken Alfredo with that red sauce added but still lookeddelicious. 😋 When you use a slow cooker, you start it early in the day and it's ready by dinner time.

I know Peter considers Zay part of the family even though he hasn't adopted him I watch this KZfaq channel called crazy pieces they adopted Melinda at the age of 25 years old because she was a placement in their home as a teenager so they were able to adopt her still and Peter can look into doing that for Zay if he wants to be Adopted

Next time sprinkle the onion powder(?) around instead of dumping it all in one spot. If you dump it in the one spot, that spot will have more (maybe too much) flavor and the rest not so much.

Great advice! Tip: To reduce the cooking time (as what someone here suggested) .... buy Rotisserie chicken. You'll also get an additional flavor from it. You can cook your meal over the stove top unless you prep earlier if you like to use the slow cooker. Great job, Zay!! It looks delish. Isabella & Maddie are good helpers.
