show you as you can tell five stars so I just have knows how many hamburger breads do I can get from a recipe uh if I double the recipe you know things like that uh but let me show you a little bit about it just in case you're looking for a good cookbook this col slot is the best Co slot you're ever going to try it's the best is insane uh let me show you oh cron the best ones uh they have a really good honey bacon honey chicken that we love we have oh croutons already show show it to you these are my go-to pie crust amazing they have this uh kettle corn um that we love love love what is this oh my gosh these are the best granola bars you ever tried I'm not joking you make it in the oven as you can tell five stars delicious well in Spanish right uh the best one and I'm not exaggerating guys I'm not exaggerating and let me tell you that they have oatmeal cookies five stars really good like they are insane those are one of our best when pie craft I already told you oh my gosh cupcake feeling they are extremely yummy we love it we really do love it as you can tell I love this book I use it a lot for a lot of their recipes um and today I want to what is this let me show you this one as well oh yes the mom's sweet muffins we love them we love this one as well five stars right oatmeal muffins they're really good as well anyway so I think I do believe that I I will try to have the link if you want this book honestly the best investment you're going to make for your house if you want to use it this so we're going to use our basic bread dough that I'm going to share the recipe with you um I'm going to leave it on the description below so you can have it the ingredients and then just follow me uh I'm going to wash my hands so and I'm going to make I'm not going to use my mixer just because this is a small batch it's a small U I'm going to do half of the recipe just because we only have this much and it's for the week so let's start okay I have warm water here okay I'm leaving the recipe there the recipe that I'm sharing with you is to make the full recipe okay right now I'm doing half of the recipe that you're looking right now on the video um is asking me for the entire package remember that we bought the yeast uh um of course only going to use half of the package right uh and I'm going to do a teaspoon and a half I'm going to only use a teaspoon and a half I think it's like two teaspoon something so a teaspoon and a half and I'm just going to let it there um I like to put a pinch of sugar just to help it out and guys guess what I forgot that this recipe needed sugar so we need a four of a cup of sugar so I'm sorry but I'm going to let it rest this for a little bit and if you're not going to you either you can put this on your counter top or oh and this is good for a year so we're good okay then here in my bowl Clean Hands I'm going to add the rest of the ingredients so I can mix them up so I have my oil I have my salt I have my sugar I have my water now with the ju it's another water and I'm going to start adding my flour um I need three cups of flour okay every time you're going to use your flour if you have it here either with a spoon or something this is too small bag that I can't use that one [Applause] so you just kind of can get like Airy right your so it's not so Compact and you use more than what you need so that's what I like to do now I'm going to get three cups oh a flower so I have one I'm going to use two right now and I'm going to have one ready to add I'm going to start mixing it so all my ingredients get mixed here especially the salt and if you never made bread please give it a try honestly honestly honestly you're you're going to love it making bread it's not only cheap but um it's way healthier right cuz we eliminate all those uh ingredients that they have to preserve for a longer period of time so okay my my G is almost done I just wanted to make sure that all my ingredients here especially the salt cuz you don't want the salt to touch the yeast or you will kill it if uh if my ye is having gross so okay I think this is good okay my yeast is ready so I'm going to add it I'm going to add a little bit more of flour and let's just start making our bread okay my dough is ready okay now I have already oil my my pan for my bread and my cookie sheet for the other one so I'm just going to um this is going to be for my bread okay I'm going to leave it there right and for here let's see we may I have enough we'll see oh man we need um okay for my hamburger bun we may be short we'll see guys maybe maybe we're going to be fine let's see hold on cuz I need for my hot dogs huh no actually I think we're going to be fine I think we're going to be fine I'm going to make another I just make the ball right so I can have a ball and you're going to squeeze it cuz I don't want it to Puff like this I want it like this right cuz it's going to be for my hamburger so okay so and these are going to grow so no worries okay and then here I'm for my two hug dogs right okay I think that your hands are your best scale right okay so this is what I'm going to do going to make a I like to pinch it like that right make a ball and then I'm just going to go this way they may not be the best uh looking bread but they're going to be so good and that's what matters okay and remember that we don't want it that big cuz they're going to grow I'm going to grab a sausage and yep okay just kind of have the same size and I'm going to put it very close to my Edge cuz I want I don't want it to spread like that when you you um when you do a lot of breads you have to put them close together so they can puff and beautiful but because I'm not doing that today because I'm only making these two we'll see but it's going to be delicious guys this is the way that the way I like to make my balls I put it here and with my other hand I just go like that yes and if you notice you notice you know it will go like that right so I close my fingers so I can help out and make the ball with this emotions right so okay and here you go a tip uh every time I do bread I do two things if I have a little over time I like to put it inside my oven and turn the light on now if you don't have a light or you want it quicker I'd like to turn on my oven just for like 5 minutes 150 like I turn it on a 350 3 minutes 5 minutes turn it off the oven and then I put my bread so I have my two hug dogs so the oven can be warm enough to help my dough to Rice so there you have it okay my two hot dogs and my two hamburgers and I'm going to let it rest and my bread so let's continue all this rice and you know what let's do it another that we're here cuz we're going to need flour tortillas but of course I'm only going to do half of the recipe as well so I only need a cup of flour a cup of flour salt and oil I don't have shortening so we're going to use oil and it's going to be just great um okay okay the water is very hot so you really need to be very careful um so so I always use something to mix it up and then I I'll use my hands but before before I mean I mix it up with this so I don't burn myself and you have to use your hands to see if it needs more water so now I'm going to use my hands and just kind of see which I think that's uh yeah I think it's [Music] [Music] one something that I like to do I have a film or plastic for kitchen right and just cover it and we're gonna let it rest okay for at least 20 minutes so it's good okay let's do our first breakfast so I'm going to do weon chizo my chizo where is here I'm just going to use some of it [Music] I'm going to add my eggs some salt okay my wubble corn CH so is ready okay next breakf I'm turn it on I add a little bit of oil okay okay okay I'm going to add chizo I'm still using this one remember that I bought two packages right okay going to add another chunk okay I'm going to add now um I'm going to add a little more cherries so hold on say want a little more okay I'm going to add some salsa remember that we still have a little bit from last week I'm adding salsa and I'm adding beans this is oh my mom make this breakfast and we love it and I'm going to show you how we're going to serve it so and this can be your lunch breakfast dinner whatever but for me it's going to be my um my breakfast okay just let it warm up okay this is done so I'm going to remove from here and I'm going to add the other one I'm going to add a little bit of oil okay I'm going to make an egg [Applause] salt okay I have my plate I'm going to put it here okay okay once you have your egg here to just add this deliciousness on top and you have a very very delicious breakfast let's continue okay guys we still have quite a bit of flour um hold on look we still have here we still have so let's make our flower tortillas they're already um rest for a little bit so okay so we have quite a bit um I'm going to make my my tortillas okay okay okay so we did eight flour tortillas with one cup okay one cup of flour guys honestly it's so cheap to do it takes a little time but it's totally worth it right so I'm not going to going details like you're not going to see me making all the tortillas just because you can go and watch um my video I'm going to post it on the description below or here on top you're going to see it so and they're going to be different sizes it's all good right who cares the important thing is that we get a tortilla so this is big this is not much it's fine okay let's do it okay guys I hold on I want to show you okay so my breath they're ready I grab one egg only and I'm going to use this but I'm going to use it just to kind of give some color to my to my bread okay and this is the time that you can put some sisam seeds if you have some so they can stick to your bread okay I'm only going to do it to did do you see how much they grow okay perfect I'm going to put it in the oven for 350° fenhe this one will go for around 30 minutes but this one we're going to for 18 minutes okay so I'm going to put this one first and then my bread look at this beautiful you see we don't need baking powder they just need rest time to rest that's all they need nothing else so let's continue making our tortillas okay guys in my pan I'm going to add eggs I'm going to add the egg that I use for the um and another one ah man hold on okay A little bit of salt I'm going to make my some scramble EGS and I'm going to add beans okay so as soon as they're almost [Music] done I'm adding my beans so okay going to add a little bit of pepper mix them up and we have cheese we have um salsa you know it's going to be delicious perfect look at this oh my gosh okay I'm going to add because I'm making this for 2 days so I'm going to add another egg I just remember that I want it for two days which is fine just okay okay and breakfast is ready look at this beauty guys look at this beauty like they're so flexible right right so I'm going to put it on my and this will depends how many burritos do you want right um You will decide I'm going to make three but hey and this I'm going to have it for two days okay so I have some salsa and breakfast is ready guys and we'll still have five tortillas left okay now now to keep this the best way let them um you're just going to let them be cold once they're cool you're going to put it in a zlap back and put it in your pantry do not put it inside the fridge because they're going to get very hard but they have to be cold so once you're done just put it like this right and once they're cold grab them again put them inside a sip BL back close it and you have good tortillas for the week okay let's continue day one we had our egg Sun side up with her beans chizo and salsa day two we have chizo with scrambled eggs day three we have burritos with scramble eggs and um beans day four we again had a scramble a sisa bag with Bean Salsa and chizo day five we eat we ate um chereso with es scramlets in day six we ate burritos with scrambled eggs and beans and of course salsa and here you have all our breakfast for this week really really good now let me show you what we have for lunch and look at this guys my breads are ready I already cut these to but I want you to see they're very soft guys like really really soft this is very hot still so I'm going to leave it there for a little bit it is very important that once your breads get out of the oven put it in a rack so they can breathe if you leave them in the cookie sheet they're going to start getting like on the bottom it's going to be like wet because all the sweat or yeah the sweat it's coming down so you don't want that so right away put it here so I'm going to give him a little time for this to be a little more um cold okay guys let's make our hot dogs okay so very careful we're going to open the bread okay okay so for this purpose I already have at my house mayo and ketchup so I'm not going to open what I bought just because I don't need to but I bought them for the purpose of the video okay so here they are I bought them but I'm going to use what I have at home already ready so I have to open a second one this is really good really really good okay and I'm just going to put if you like mayo or not well that's your my hot dog and I didn't have money for monard but hey it's all good right it's all good I need to open a little more there we go put some mayo my hot dot sa saage sausage yes right okay and my lunch day one it's ready what do you guys think oh yeah oh yeah baby let me show you our next lunch okay I'm doing my lentils and I'm going to do the same thing I have my water boiling once my water is boiling um I'm going to add a little bit of salt to give it a little taste and I'm going to add all the rest of my lentils and I'm going to give them 7 to 10 minutes I'm going to try them and if they're cooked then I'm going to turn it off I do this because I don't like my lentil smooshie so for lunch I'm going to have sandwiches and my H my cheese and my ham I'm going to slice my bread never throw this away I'm going to toast them cuz I'm going to use it for my hamburger so just wait and I'm going to cut my bread and I know this bread is way too small um you can use the entire recipe so you can get bigger slices like you know tall but this is going to be just perfect because then you can make small sandwiches which are fine and I'm going to show you the bread hold on guys it's so fluffy it is really really good like really good now let me tell you I like to slice it and then I'm going to let it cold be cool cold completely um and what I like to do is to put it in a SE Lo back and put it on my freezer because this is a homemade bread um it's going to by two days it's going to start getting hard and it's not going to taste fresh and good so that's what I do I put it in the freezer and then once I want the bread I put it on my toaster and that's it so the ends I'm going to save them and I'm going to to prepare some sandwiches let me open My Cheese okay let's open my ham Okay and like I mentioned before I'm going to use the one that I have from home but I you know we bought one so we're good right and simple as you're going to grab one I hope you can see it right and because it's a small bread I'm going to make two sandwiches okay ah this is a really really really good
