That’s so sweet. I have noticed when hearing her daughter’s voice in the background in her other videos, Laura calls her daughter “love”.❤️ Again, so sweet❤️
i love food prep, you get so much in return by spending a little chunk of time on a sunday. one thing though.....all those veegie scraps, i keep those in a ziploc in my freezer & use them to make broth in my instant pot for soups
I am currently binge watching That 70's show on Netflix and I have always loved Donna's beauty, sass and strength as a young woman. After some googling I found this channel. I love thay you are exactly like Donna in real life. So glad I found this channel. Don't ever stop being who you are Laura, you are an amazing young woman 😍
Your food videos are so helpful. I want to start a healthier lifestyle but I am such a picky eater. I would love to see some videos where you give some suggestions for healthy and tasty breakfast, lunch and dinner recipe ideas.
Someone slipped in editing and forgot to turn off food cam audio after syncing videos up 😂 Definitely need a short 10-15 second intro video with some fun music and shots of her prepping and ends with "Get Your Prepon!"
This channel has been such a blessing for me. I didn’t have the greatest parents growing up so at 17 I don’t really know how to do any of this stuff because we only ever ate boxed food. Thanks so much Laura!!
omg i have never ever saw a salad spinner!! that is a nifty gadget!! this makes me want to get fresh veggies and a salad spinner just so i can do that!! hahah oh i know the prep is worth it in the end for sure, but i dont like cauliflower, lol but it is a neat-o way how you chop it up!!
The prep time is always what leads me to eat the unhealthy, pre packaged foods so I really love these prep videos. And the cleaning methods are definitely helpful. You saved me from 2 kale bugs!
Another thing that you can do with your food peels is put them in a zip lock bag and keep it in the freezer until you fill it. I make my own vegetable stock just by adding water, salt and pepper! Then freeze in Tupperware until I need it for soup. Hi from Minnesota 😊
I love a lot of the foods Laura talks about here. I love butternut pumpkin! (I'm an Australian, we call it that) I love making pumpkin and potato mash, though I cheat with a bag of instant potato mash. I cook it all up, portion it and freeze it to have with whatever I like for later. It makes a lot of portions!
If you want to make sure the spinach leaves are dried properly (not dried out) simply cover your counter or table with paper towels and spread the spinach leaves on top. You can pat dry from above.Or you can cover the leaves with an equal amount of paper towels. Setting time will vary. Just check every 1/2 hour. If your leaves are too wet you may have change the towels a few times.
Laura! Great video 😁❤️ A great alternative to plastic bags are those Pyrex glass containers! I think they’re great because you can see through them and they stack nicely on a shelf in the fridge.😁❤️
Grew up with you n the rest of the gang of 70's show..one of the best shows ever..just binged it on Netflix..so nostalgic..love you..I just subscribed..I also love ben..great freaking actor.
fyi, I am sooo in. Bonebroth yesterday. veggie prep day before. chick soup tonight. lettuce boats with turkey etc for lunch at work. Blueberries for snack at work. Thank you!!!
You could also use clear reusable sealable bags for veggies!! There’s a brand called stashers or some other companies that are just like it. Hope this helps!
I saw another youtuber with a way more intense way of prepping that I am glad works for him but that I could never do. I love how simple and nonjudgmental Laura's prep videos. She's says simply "I like prepping because it makes things easier for me. Here's how I do it."
Hi Laura. I just discovered your youtube channel. I can't wait to explore more videos. One piece of advice I would like to offer is when editing your videos on a multi-cam clip try to use the same audio source even when switching to a different camera. I don't know what editing software you are using but most allow you to detach the audio clip and use it for every camera angle. This isn't a major issue, just a way to improve your videos. I hope you don't mind me offering this advice.
Great video Laura, I've never done this but it seems like a great idea, you save a lot of time if you prep your vegetables at once and then it's ready to go, this was very helpful, thanks!
Please always take care your hands with the sharp knife.I love the way you prepare the food for your family..All healthy..You’re the Best Wife and Mom❤️
When I store my food, I use the flat 25 oz Glad food storage containers. They're stack-able, easy to wash, reusable, and easy to store when not in use. I can have up to 15 containers stacked in my fridge in the beginning of the week. Takes up less surface area than Ziploc bags.
This is really nice 👍 Some of these I already do, but I usually cook for the entire week (which makes eating a little boring if I'm being honest, but saves me time...). One thing I've learned is to not throw away the waste (even the onion and garlic peels). Just throw everything into a pan with some olive oil, stir it for a bit to get the flavour going and add water. It'll make a wonderful veggie broth that you can use for example to cook rice or mke soup or add to whatever you're cooking instead of water. 😁
We eat the whole cauliflower including the core and leaves. Seriously, try sauteeing the leaves.. so good! Any veggie scraps we do not eat we throw into the freezer to make a broth from later.
I also save my scraps. When the bag is full, I put them in a pot with salt and lemon , soak them for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse and your ready to use for vegetable broth.
I do care a lot of all our plastic usage.. and I think you too.. I‘ve changed from plastic zipplocks to glas containers a while ago... For spinach and all the greens I just put a paper towel under it (to get rid of that extra water over the days)... and I‘m super happy! Glas containers and jars is a perfect/better alternative for all the plastic bags! Love your videos!! 💜
I already prep cook quite a bit but I love your tips, especially re butternut squash which I'd been avoiding. Not sure I'm comfortable sending all those zip lock bags into the landfill so I use other containers, but that's just me ~ Cheers!😃
Great tips, ty!! My tip if using plastic bags poke holes into the bag and fork it a few times and allow air in it prevents moisture from getting in. My identical twin sister and I are home chef's and really appreciate your style, if your ever looking for preppers let me know, laughing our asses off and having a great time cooking healthy and having fun doing it! ❣️👯♂️🥑🥒🥕
Laura, I'm having the weirdest best time watching you do this stuff hahaha. I'm like not even sure why, it just has a funny feel and you look like you're having the cutest time. Like it's so kooky seeing you chop veggies in your kitchen and smile whilst you spin some greens. The internet is weird and I'm into babe xx
I love how you incorporate your mom's advice. 💞🥺 You have great advice that is easy to follow! I 💓 your lighthearted humor you "toss" in!😄 Your adorable facial expression when you intensely dry that spinach and stop it😏
Hello Laura, I just want to say you are so awesome. I was watching the 70 show again and was googling you and found this channel. I hope you best to you and your family.
I love your videos but I do not have time to do all of this. ☹️Prepping is very time consuming it seems. Well, can’t wait to see your next video. It’s very relaxing watching you prepare.
The editing was rough in some parts . But I live for a rough ride 😏 lol. Def love the “look I’m trying, and I ain’t perfect vibe” that this channel gives off. Ugh. Might start prepping veggies.
Hi! Loved the video, already trying to figure out what I can prep in advance with what's in season where I live. Also appreciate the new camera angles, the close ups make a world of difference. The audio was a little iffy, but little by little you'll become a RU-vid pro!
Love this! Makes it so much easier! I also do this with meats (a lot of pre-cooked, ready-to-go bags). I recommend the FoodSaver. I don't know what I'd do without it! Ziplocks are abundant in our house too! (And I do wish we could find ones that are better for the environment.) My only nitpick is LABELS! Label (what it is) (or even what it's intended for - since we preplan meals as often as possible) & date everything when packed. It's just a good way to know how long something's been in your fridge or freezer. It's a good habit to have! ✌ + 🧡 (Orange heart for orange fingers! 😘)
Very good idea with the preparation of the fish, I did' t know. Thank you! Congratulation on the role of OITNB. You are a complete actress and woman. I became a moch more tolerant person, because of you. I think your mother is very proud of you! Continue to enjoy us!
