Comment your favorite meal so I can get some ideas on what to cook in future videos!!! Also clicking Like and Subscribe is appreciated :) New video should be out by Wednesday at the latest! THANK YOU!
Not a favourite meal but a meal I think you would enjoy. Lentil curry. But you need a bunch of special spices. Some places sell pre packed lentil curry, that with rice or warm pitta bread is lovely!
Chicken Quesadillas, I take boneless chicken breasts and cut them up, saute the pieces, before they are completely done, I cut up red and yellow peppers and onions and add them in, sprinkle some mexican seasoning. When done, put them on half of tortilla and sprinkle mexican cheese on it and fold it over and then toast in the frying pan. Only one pot to clean. Cut into 4 triangles and eat with a Corona with lime... or two, or three, or four LOL.
Hey I dunno if I mentioned it or not but Mandy in the Making on RU-vid is fantastic for her recipes and they are super easy too! 😃. My new favorite I tried of hers is called Chicken Cordon Bleu bubble up bake…. Chicken ham cheese biscuit dough… can’t go wrong lol.
I love how Cassie sits with paws crossed as she patiently lays down and chills. Congratulations on the growth of your channel. Not sure how I came across it, but I’m glad I did.
Awhhh, I’m glad I can stir up some good memories!! I’m sorry for your loss, I’d say 1 day a week I randomly will be in a weird mood thinking about what I would do if anything happened to her, she’s my rock for sure
Casey is going to help you build your channel. You'll hit 1000 in no time, just keep the videos coming. I watch videos every day all day, so I'll be looking forward to you & Casey.
I subscribed awhile back but for some reason did not watch…. WTF 😳 Anywho, love watching a day in the life of Dan and CASSIE, what fun. 🐕 Favorite Easy Camp Meal: 1 Pot Chili El Fake-O. RECIPE - 1 can of pork & beans, rinse can with water and add, 1 can of strewed tomatoes, 1 can of beans (any), 1 can of mushrooms (optional) 1 can of corn, if you have this brown off ground beef or chicken. + ANYTHING else you want to toss in. 😂🤣 Keep up the good work. ☮️ & ❤
Thank you James!!! I can tell from your profile picture and comment your a good guy! Glad to hear you guys truly enjoy the boring day videos!! I’ll keep that recipe on hand! I loooove easy/one pot meals!
Casey is adorable! I'm new on your channel. I'm liking you & Casey, so I'll be watching as long as you continue to make content, entertaining content..😊
Hahahaha it’s her favorite trick!! When ever her favorite treats come out she just starts spinning and looking at me like “did I do it” hahaha thank you for watching and the comment!
Dan I enjoy watching your videos, keep it up. I'm not sure how I came across your videos but I don't regret it 😀😀. Be safe, love ya and that beautiful dog of yours✌️❤️
Watching you freak out that your video has 600 views when it now has 200k is hillarious 😂Can't wait to see your reaction to that in a future video. Amazing work with the thumbnails, they're really eye-catching you seem to have a natural talent for RU-vid. Keep up the good work! Give Cassie some pets from me, she's lovely!❤😊
Hahahaha I had to include that bit, I was so truly excited about 600 views I was on one that whole day… I still can not comprehend 200k at all, it’s almost more confusing than exciting hahahaa.. thank you so much for the kind words and giving Cassie some scratches right now!!
I don't know how this came up on my watch list? RU-vid must see that I have a track record of watching van life videos..... Anyway, your up to 6920 subscribers, favorite foods, pizza, tacos, beans, potatoes, squash lately, trying to grow squash in garden in my backyard. Please tell us how you got started van-life? Did you build your van? Do you have dreams or goals for your future. Happy Father's Day 2023, and Good Luck with your youtube channel. Definitely subscribed....
RU-vid knows what you want!! Haha home grown squash sounds good!!! That reminds me how much I used to make squash!!! I will do that soon! Yup built my van a few years ago, I really need to do a propper van walkthrough/introduction video soon!! Dreams and goals would be to upgrade to a school bus or toy hauler so I can have a race/drift car with me on travels, crazy dream is to have an off grid homestead with a concrete drift/race track and a huge ton shop for cars!! Thank you!!!
Bless you for rescuing such a beautiful sweet dog! Cassie is such a kind soul. I've always had rescues myself. Thanks for keeping your videos real. So happy to see so many more subscribers each time I watch your videos!
Corn and crab bisque but it takes so much time and energy. Also jealous of cool Weather and rain because we are baking in New Orleans with this extreme heat advisory
You had 6.92k subs when I watched this video. Cassie is so cute and she really loves you. Look online for RV meals. They make RV cookbooks too. I bet that shower felt great!! Love your videos!! Stay safe. Hugs to you both. ❤
Thank you!!! Me n her are like peanut butter n jelly lol, great together and alright apart hahahah.. will do, I’ve been starting to think how cool it would be if I put together a van life cook book!!
Hey Dan and Cassie. 😃 Even on vacation I couldn't stand not to watch my two favorite van lifers. 😍 This is actually my second watch, but you know by now I can't keep my posts short and my phone died the first time. My family had all the phone chargers taken then, so I decided I would post on my second (right now) watch. I'm pretty sure he I just woke everyone up laughing at you talking for Cassie. (Dear God please don't spray me with that thing). Lmbo. I'm so glad for you that you got a nice warm shower. 😃 Omg you two crack me up. I love it. And the paws crossed! Be still my heart. ❤️ Hun, one of these days, you're going to have to believe us when we tell you that we love your videos, the interaction with you and Cass is priceless, you speaking for Cass is freakin' hilarious, and if you still think your vids are boring, well Hun, keep on being boring, cause ummm we love it. 😍 And with listening to the train, I send you two, hugs, loves and prayers. Stay safe ! 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
We are so close it’s terrible hahaha we cant go more than an hour apart without one of us being anxious as heck lol Thank you!! Fajitas have been my favorite for yearrrs!!
I just want to say good for you for living the dream ,taking a risk , you are an inspiration to me! And yes, your dog Cassie is the cutest sweetest thing ever! Also, your videos never boring. I’m subscribed and I like every video. Keep on doing what you do.❤❤
Thank you Sheri!! I’m just an average guy lol, if you didn’t see one of our last videos making pizza you might like it!! I will be making a supreme pizza in a future video as well!!
Thanks for taking us along on your adventure and congrats on the hot water/shower. That’s going to make your life so much better. Kisses to Cassie. BTW I was going to join but can’t find it now. Maybe because I’m using my phone?
Thank you for all the support Kiki!! I’m kicking myself for not installing the water heater sooner!! Definitely a major life upgrade!! The membership dealio is very new to me, I think the join button is supposed to be where the subscribe button would be.. but not 100% on that… thank you!!!
Another fun video! With 6.99K subscribers and, as of this moment, 4.2K views of this video, I shouldn’t be surprised! You and Cassie are the dream team on RU-vid! 😉🤙☮️❤️
Hey Dan,love your Channel enjoy your content over 200 subscribers congats🎉Casey is just the cutest girl anywho take care stay safe ,,most of all have fun 👍 love. From me V from Australia the land down under❤
Hi Dan.😃Cassie is learning so well! I love to hear you laugh! You are NOT boring! Your videos are NOT boring 😉. I bet it’s awesome to be able to shower!!! There’s a guy in Canada Chrome… VanCity Van Life) that has a type of shower called Juka Hot Tap and as long as there’s any water from a puddle to a creek, lake or river he can have a hot shower. Your van is beautiful! Did you have any issues adjusting to altitude? I just watched a lady who has been suffering altitude sickness since she arrived. Cassie loves you🥰. I love her… she’s soooooo beautiful!!!! If y’all ever come to Arkansas I have to know lol. The slow mo was funny. I saw 210 subscribers I think. Oooh turkey and dressing on a bun… yum 😋. I use a heavy rain RU-vid live to sleep every night bc I have terrible tinnitus. Love to you and Cassie! Stay safe❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
@@DanVanLife yeah he’s one of the first I found bc of his gf Emi. I’ve only been watching RU-vidrs for about a year. Thank you for taking time to respond. As your channel grows I’m sure you won’t always be able to but I love y’all ❤️
I wish it were easier to recycle being in the van, sadly I don’t see a ton of recycling bins in public areas.. that’s one thing I love about ski towns is there are (some few and far) recycling bins!
I appreciate you saying that, I got a comment from Annette on my first video about my story telling being good and it’s made me realize I’ve been lacking good story telling in recent videos, so I appreciate hearing otherwise.. I feel you on BBQ I’m making BBQ chicken sliders or wraps soon for a video!!
Lmao,..well just got done with my 12 hr shift,..came home and surprise there was a new video from Dan and your CO-star Cassie :). Seriously must be a nice feeling to get that warm/hot shower in. Downing my seltzer and enjoying your video,..great job! ALSO,..like everyone else on this planet,..I LOVE to fall asleep to the sound of the rain!
Dan your videos are fantastic. I say that because you do not do the big elaborate scenes. It is a cool guy and his amazing dog living life. And at this moment you have 7 thousand subs.
Cassie is such a beautiful & well behaved dog 🥰 makes me want a dog. The scenery in Colorado is amazing, I went to Estes Park a few years ago & loved it. Safe travels Dan & Cassie .
I need to better at showcasing the not as great times of her being a crazy dog hahaha.. but absolutely dogs are the best!! Thank you for watching and the comment!
@@DanVanLife BTW, a quick & easy recipe my hubby & I enjoy while camping is Texas Tacos… not sure why they’re called that, but it’s good & fast. Put hot chili beans over Fritos with shredded cheese. Then top with diced onion, tomatoes, lettuce & whatever else you like & enjoy. Greetings from California 🌴
I can't wait for the video about Cassie story. She's such a good girl. Give her lots of kisses 😘😘 As for food all videos are good. What do you like to make is what would be a good video. Have a nice evening Dan and Cassie ❤❤❤
Ha ha Dan, I come to watch Cassie and stayed for the shower! I have a "velcro doggie" too, her name is Gracie, recsued at 4 from a life as a kennel Mom....she is an 11 yr. old Black Lab Greyhound mix.....lived in downtown Denver for a year, love Colorado.....retired and live in Raleigh now, love you channel.....keep growing it......Garcie's favorite meal is...anything I am eating....we like Chicken and Pastry best.
Oh my heart...that bit where she's trying to talk you into walkies! The face and then the little whimper. STAHP IIIITTTT!!! Oh yeah...let's see, what would I cook if I lived in a van (like I totally wish I could right this minute). Something super easy that ended up being a staple for both of my sons when they first moved out was Zatarain's boxed beans and rice with sliced smoked sausage. Cover with cheese and liberally blitz with tobasco. Cheap, easy, filling and yummy. Cornbread goes great with it. But that probably isn't very video worthy. How about chili? Either red or green. I can't remember if you have a freezer, but if you do, you could package in ziplocks and freeze flat in individual servings to save space for easy meals for later.
My favourite meal is fried chicken and mixed salad and tea. (I don't eat pork or beef). Fried eggs with home made hash browns with onion is yummy. Lots of coffee!
"The Most Peaceful Sound To Fall Asleep To" . . . until the first CLAP of thunder comes !!! ( like we had here in Alabama two nights ago at TWO AM ) Cassie has 175 views, and 6.92K subscribers in "her world" at 2:15 PM central time, Sunday June 18th - FATHERS DAY . . Cassie is lucky to have a "dad" like you. One of my favorite foods that you could easily make is mac and beef - just brown some ground beef in your pan, and cook some macaroni ( elbow is a good size ) in your pot. Drain the pasta, maybe you could use the same pot you used to boiled the pasta in to mix everything together, since Cassie won't let you do dishes very often. Add a can or two of tomato sauce or puree ( or even tomato paste is you like it "thickerer" ) salt, pepper and your've got a simple, good tasting meal - depending on how much of each item you use, you can have several meals out of it ( if Cassie doesn't get to it FIRST ) You'll have to experiment with "quantities" of each item to see how you like it . . . Stay Gold, Danal
Thank you for the thoughtful comment!! Hahaha I’m lucky to be Cassie’s dad as well!! She’s my everything, I love a good simple meat n noodles meal!!! Thank you again!!!
Hi Annette! Thank you! I’d say mid 40s F during the shower! Not too cold! I hope you saw the video before I had to chop the outro out where I thanked you and the couple others for being a member!!
Hahaha no way that’s awesome!!! Cassie watches other RU-vidrs dogs on tv too!! How the tables have turned lol… ty for watching and commenting!! Woah I’ve never heard of that, I’ll have to google it!!
At this time Dan's Van Life has 6.95k subscribers. I get a vicarious feeling of comfort and accomplishment seeing how nice it is with the van all tidied up. Would love to know about how you and Cassie met.
Hey Dan (BRRR) Awesome video..your dog is beautiful 🐾 You need one of those trunk nets across towards the back of your van to support the pillows from always falling! lol
Great video Dan. You have 6900 subscribers now and it's June 18 I see this is from May 15th. How long will you be staying in Colorado? Thanks for taking us along!!!!
Thank you!!!! I can’t wait to look back at these comments/ video in a month or year from now!! Not sure how long in Colorado, a while unless I decide to head up to wyoming! Thank you for coming along with and commenting!
I just found you!!! I am an Iowan as well. I dig your stuff and that Cassie is too cute for words. What mix is she? Maybe Weimerheimer/Doberman??? That's my guess. Keep it up! With YOUR sweet face and that cutest, beautiful, wonderful Doggie by your side...you're gonna be HUGE!! Like MAV, JOE AND STEVE HUGE. Congrats on your venture
Thank you so so much! Go hawks! Haha it’s crazy to see comments comparing me to Mav or Ryan Twomy, I actually just found Mav a few days ago and have been binge watching his content!!! It’d be easy to think he had inspiration in my video style as ours are pretty similiar! Thank you for the kind words!
Wow! Thanks for the quick reply! Check out Joe Robinet too..if you haven't already. He is a Canadian and has a great outlook on life. Also, Steve Wallis. He's a Stealth Camper from Canada. You remind me of MAV though...The set up and your personality. He lives in Duluth and has made quite a life for himself due to RU-vid. He was just in Iceland!!! Anyway, congrats to you, I think you found your job! Kiss and hug that beautiful baby for me!
I lived in Idaho springs CO. For 2 year's . We owned some property on a maintain out side of Idaho springs CO. I was pregnant and we already had 5 kids we started out in a tent and built a temporary cabin for the winter. On our property we cut and humed logs to build a log cabin. We worked are asses of had it 24by24foot 5 foot tall already winter came and we went to town I had my last son there. Come spring we went up to start again. Someone cut are cabin for fire word. U could see every so many foot the cut mark's. I Lost it and came back home to Kentucky. I Miss it there but will never go back. I just wanted you to hear my story. I'm a fan and a subscriber. Good luck son.
Hi Dan and Cassie. Awesome video. I can't wait until the day I can shower in my rig. However, not much room in my suv. You do a great job editing. Cassie is adorable. She's so sweet. Just a word of caution, that mylar bone she was chewing on can be dangerous to her digestive system. Any of the synthetic bones or chews that she consumes can. I'll log on to my suv life and sub from there. Have an awesome week.
Hey Dan it's great to see you and cassie again,whoop whoop your subs count is going up,well done keep it up you should be so proud of yourself,wraps,qusadia,tacos and soft tacos there's some meal ideas 🤗 Hey just curious is racing SIM just your hobbie is it part of income. Did you get you a leak fixed ? And we would all love to hear how you an cassie came together ❤☺
Thank you so much!! I appreciate the thoughtful comment!! It’s hard to believe the growth!! You pretty much listed my whole meal list there hahahah.. Sim racing has been a hobby for years before the van build, and I got the sim rig in the van to fill the hole in my heart, from not being able to have a fun vehicle.. and thankfully it has turned into a small part of my income from gifts on live streams and getting free products from sim racing companies to make videos with! Thank you for asking!!
@@DanVanLife yay thank you for the reply,would love to hear more about yours and cassie's life,how long it took you to build your van,what made you want to get on road an become an independent man,an what it's been like for the last 3 years of your van adventures,can't wait to see some of your edits including your SIM racing set up,I'm not a big gamer an hadn't really seen anything like that b4 🙂. Looking forward to Wednesday's next video 🤗
@@bethfulton4195 thank you very much!!! I will raise the priority of filming a back story video, because I’m sure many people are wondering similar questions!!
Careful with playing with Cassie after she eats because she’s a barrel chested breed. It’s important that they don’t play for at least 45 minutes after eating or drinking a lot of water they can get what’s called bloat. And maybe you already knew that, but I’m guessing like my Weimer Reiner to get frisky after they eat
