My husband's mom wasn't the family cook either. Her thing was giant casseroles that they'd eat from for days. He never complains about anything I cook but I learned early on that tuna casserole wouldn't be eaten under any circumstances lol

Love your videos Brooke. You're so honest about everything, its refreshing. I live in Glasgow, Scotland and we have a totally different take on soups. We have traditional soups that I make all the time during our cold winters. Although I love the thought of your soups, some of them seem alien to me like Taco Soup. I make Beef stew but its not a soup. Thank you for sharing and showing us that there are different types and tastes of soup. xx

About not draining canned beans; the liquid is starchy too so it helps thicken the soup. A dish we had lots as a family was tuna noodle casserole. I cannot eat it but I'll make it for my husband who loves it! Soups are also a great way to use up leftovers. Love your vids! 😊

I have only been watching You since a year ago in The Spring. I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND YOU! Your Family is AWESOME. Your Husband and You remind Me of a Young My Husband and Me. I came up with lots of what I call My concoctions! We had 2 Little Boys. There was just the 4 of Us so I got creative for food dishes. None were exactly like Your’s but some are similar. My Oldest Son’s Birthday was yesterday. He was 42. I was a teenage Mom so I am only 58. ONLY! I am sure that sounds old to You. I just wanted to let You know that I enjoy watching Your videos and Your Wonderful Family And You! You are a SWEET MAMMA and I love watching You with Your Boys and Dusty. Your Boys are All so polite and Handsome. Your Little Guy just kills Me when He faints. What a Cutie Pie and has His Own Awesome response to food that He loves. Anyway, sorry for the novel; I just wanted You to let You know how much I enjoy watching Your programs. You make this older woman love to cook more again. You also remind of fun days of My Husband, Our 2 Little Boys and my Own Frugal Concoctions that We have all loved for many years. Thank You for sharing Your Family and Your talents with Us. Love, From an old Northern Mamma and Grandma too. 😊👍🏼💕💕💕👍🏼👋🏼

We had the potato soup for supper tonight. It was delicious. In fact my hubby is still eating! I made mine in my Instant Pot. Cooked on high pressure for 4 minutes, immediate release, then switched to saute to finish it off. I added the sour cream, heavy cream, and cheese last because I wasn't sure how the dairy products would act under pressure. Also, I added the put in the bacon pieces with the potatoes, etc., so they flavor the soup more.

Right now I have a 1/2 gallon batch of tomato soup in fridge but have multiple containers of tomato soup in freezer same as I have a huge batch of chili in fridge and freezer. My neighbor gave me chicken veggie soup last night so it’s in freezer. I love potato soup and loaded potato soup. I have to have cornbread or crackers. With chili I need corn chips cheese and sour cream. In the winter I keep soup I have a coffee cup I drink soup out of. I love using tomato bouillon and frozen peppers and onions (thanks for the awesome tips)

Some people have difficulty digesting the lectins in beans. Canned beans have less than dry/soak beans in and of themselves but the lectins are leeched into the liquid during the canning process so rinsing canned beans is necessary to remove the lectins that cause digestive issues which include bloating, indigestion, gas, cramps, nausea etc.
