I like the waffles on a crunchy some. So, making them the second time, I put some melted butter into the mix.
Never knew potato was so useful😂😂❤❤❤
💗Nicole, you have a really natural style that is so easy to watch. I feel like I'm watching a good friend in the kitchen–instead of someone who thinks they know everything and who's trying to teach me something. When you are a seasoned cook you welcome a refreshing spin on new ideas. Thanks so much!
Potato croquettes immediately reminded me of the meat filled potato balls at Portos. Now I can make them myself ❤
This girl is my new hero!
All of those recipes look scrumptious! I love your videos. Thank you! 🤠👍🏼🔥
I nearly always make extra mash and freeze it to use on cottage/sheperds pie so could easily do any of your dishes and it would be all homemade, definitely would not buy ready made mash. Great recipes though ❤❤
If you like the same commercials over and over every minute or so watch this! Youtube! You have gone too far!
All sound delicious only I wouldn’t do sauerkraut.
Quoting a friendly Allrecipies partner, "Fork don't lie".
I’ll pay the court fees if you adopt me.
Nicole. On the fries- couldn't you just use another piece of sprayed parchment paper, lay it down on the top of them and just flip it?❤
The potato casserole– you forgot bacon and sour cream toppers😂❤
Toaster potato waffles for the freezer? Good idea.
Nicole, I'm ready for some more coffee creamer recipes so here are my suggestions for this year. How about salted Carmel creamer? Chocolate covered cherry would be awesome! Kahlua coffee creamer! I love coconut so how about almond joy creamer? Butterfinger creamer would be really amazing!
Your awesome love your creativity !
who gets to eat all that food she makes in a day??? would luv to be a family member!🤩🤩
I am not impressed! These ready-made mashed potatoes are way too watery and require a lot more of flour.
What brand cookware do you use
Can anyone tell me where I can get that wonderful wooden spoon?
Thank you for the amazing ideas!❤
Next to my college was a SPUDNUTS shop. You got it – doughnuts made with potatoes! Absolutely delicious!!
how does this chicky stay to thin when all she does is make this unhealthy super high calorie food? and eat it all?
My wife started adding our leftover mashed taters to her dough for potato rolls. Very tasty. So many wonderful and easy ideas. Thumbs up
We don’t have ready made potato mash.. I make my own and will try your suggestions 😊
I’ve never bought those premade mashed potatoes because I don’t have a microwave. I never thought to use them cool in recipes like you did! ❣️
I love all your recipes .Keep going with the good you do thank you.
Love watching You!
I've just come upon your channel and have been watching watching then non stop for over a week now. So many ideas and different ways of doing things. With celiac, i can't eat a number of these recipes. I can use some alternatives, but they're not the best really. Bread is the big one and pasta. It's just different. I did find hoisin sauce gf though and that was a helper for Asian recipes you aired.
Do you ever show gf ideas on your show?
Anyway, love your channel and like to incorporate what I am able. Love your little antedotes at the end of your shows…. like….i need a nap after making 5 meals and eating 5 dishes. You're cute! 💕
Why am I listening to asian squabble, this is an English speaking country.i have to turn on the closed captions and turn the squacking off.
I’m totally making that baked potato soup!
Great ideas!
Par-bake the mashed potato crust
I refuse to deep fry after making the crokettes. They exploded on me and i was almost blinded by hot oil. Still not sure how that happened
Could you add some herbs to the mix before baking. I'm thinking with the flower??❤
Omg
That mayo egg microwave thing is divine !
Just wanna say I don’t like eating eggs at all
I will have this every morning
I m 62
What oil do you fry with?
Is there a substitute for the eggs on the potato balls?
The potatoes you put on the waffle maker if you have extra in the freeze them how would you reheat them so they will stay Krispy love your videos and you and your family have a Happy Thanksgiving😊
I always wondered why most westerners say potatoes take a long time to cook, of course they don't use pressure cooker. I pressure cook my potatoes(10 mins )!, I mash in the ricer give minutee, add spices like cumin powder, coriander powder etc to it . Knead a dough while the potatoes are cooking.Let it rest for 5 mins. Then stuff the potatoes mixture inside dough balls . Flatten and roll out into discs, cook on a griddle. Voilà your aloo paratha is ready.
Love your vids and recipes…
Please read this carefully though…
Refrain completely from using …non stick coated cookware… completely eradicate them from your home and kitchen.
Health issues shall follow…most assuredly…as one endures such from modern convenience…one shall suffer many consequences…
Take heart…and be blessed
Could do this with leftover turkey as well
I make zucchini/peppers hashbrown casserole for hubby. I am going to try it with mashed potatoes. This sounds interesting.
