  1. I love Nicole`s recipes πŸ˜‹ and its not just because my name is Nicole alsoπŸ˜…

  2. LOVE your timestamps!!! I dont want to watch the whole thing to get one recipe!!!!!!!

  3. Use meat ravioli, layer it the same way using spaghetti sauce and adding a pepperoni to each ravioli bake the same way and you have a pizza ravioli bake without the bread πŸ˜‹

  4. I honestly would add in some chopped spinach to that queso rice dish. I add it to a lot of quick rice and pasta recipes, no matter what the flavor profile is. Thank you for all of these, Nicole! ❀

  5. I love your videos, Nicole. Could you do some diabetes-friendly recipes for those of us who can’t have pasta, rice and bread? Thanks

  6. Thankyou so much. Excited to try these, I cook ravioli with pasta sauce but this looks way better. The chicken burritos made my mouth water. Can’t wait.

  7. Hi Nicole πŸ˜‹πŸ‘πŸ»I definitely ❀ doing the fried rice with my children & shrimp (like a combo)…I didn’t know about the frozen minced ginger, so I’ll be looking for that.β˜ΊοΈπŸ€—πŸ’ž

  8. Great ideas… They look yummy πŸ˜‹.
    What I do when I cook my beans, instead of smashing them, I’ll just add a can of refried beans 😁

  9. Thank you for the easy recipes, I’ll be starting with the lasagna, because I have a bag of ravioli in my freezer!!

  10. I look forward to your videos! You cook like I do. I love the recipes, and how you explain them. Keep up the good work!

  11. One of my favorite shortcuts is I brown 10 pounds of ground beef and then put them in the freezer in separate freezer bags. I do the same when I make my Italian sausage. That morning, pull out a bag and it’s one less step and most importantly pan to wash.

  12. I am definitely making the bean sausage soup tonight. It looks delicious. Thank you

  13. I love using the frozen ginger because I never can finish a whole knob, no matter how small it is. Reduces waste and speeds up cooking, so it’s a worthy short cut in this house!

  14. I actually make the recipes I watch on this channel! Thank you πŸ™πŸ» Lots of other food channels I just watch for fun but Nicole is the BEST!
