I shouldn't worry about the quality of your videos Erika - it's the content that counts, and you're nailing that! Your videos are varied on different topics/activities, they're very engaging and easy to watch. That you've just got back from the surfing session (loved seeing the rapid progress you made there with standing up too!), it's late and you're tired (and hungry) is testament to you. As for 'healthy' food ... anything that stops you starving (and tastes good too!), is healthy in my book. Looking forward to your next mini-adventure and have a great weekend!

4:00 haha giant meatballs. just a tip: unless you want the pan super hot-it's best to cook it at lower/medium temperature, especially when it comes to ground meat-so that the center gets cooked. when your pan is smoking it is probably too hot haha. good effort and bravery to share!

You can use parchment paper and something heavy, like a bowl or pot to squish them. The cold meat won't stick to the paper, so it wont make a mess out of them and using a plastic spatula to squish them never works right. Smaller balls of meat will cook the center faster as well

I know I was born in CA and lived there til I was 9 yrs old. Out here in East Texas ITS HOT! Pouring sweat. So after this video here Im going back out there to do it some more Im about 60% done tearing it down and no where near done burning the wood, stripping the aluminum, and bagging up the trash my brother left in that thing. Beer bottles and wine boxes to the ceiling with just a walkway through it to the place he sat on his ass and ashes and cigarette butts there.

Have you ever thought about becoming a chef? You seem to have a natural talent for cooking and looks like you enjoy it. That also give you two paths to take. You could start you own small business or work at higher end restaurant. A starting chef makes around 37,000$ a year and experienced chefs make up to 70,000$ a year. And I really enjoy the videos. I hope to see you grow and find the path you're looking for.

You are always so down on yourself. This is literally what everyone does. They go out and either work hard or play hard all day then come home exhausted, get cleaned up then scramble to cook dinner. Cooking for yourself is a good thing too because most restaurants use the cheapest ingredients they can. They are not out to serve you the best food, they are out to make money. Cooking at home you get the best ingredients you can afford and you know what you are putting into your body plus you get more and it costs way less, unlike a restaurant with month old ingredients in a fist sized serving for $40. The less seed oils the better. As someone who is a burger aficionado you made a really good smash burger with the tools you had available (get a cast iron smasher if you really want to make em right). You dont have to eat that plastic cheese you can get bricks of your favorite cheese at the grocery store and get a hand held cheese slicer to make your own thin slices. Lay it on the burger then cover with a lid and the cheese will melt within 30 seconds. lol for someone who "can't cook" you are doing a great job. Maybe you can invite us over and cook for us although that would probably be super stressful so maybe not. You crap on yourself alot about your video quality but it feels like I am there talking with you. That is the style that is coming across to me. From reading the other comments that seems to be what they are seeing too.

Keep Chipolte ingredients in your freezer in tiny tupperware to re heat in a pinch. Cook chicken w/ paprika and then rice on day 1 and then portion freeze the rest (Guac, Black beans, corn) (Fridge: Salsa, sour cream, tortillas).

A couple of tips: 1) Don't turn the heat past "7" with an induction pan unless you're boiling water. 2) You want to sear the outside of any meat regardless of how you're actually cooking it. That means high temperature first and lower temperature later. 3) It is recommended you not press hamburger because it will cause the meat to be bone dry and burn on the outside before it cooks on the inside. 4) Sear the outside of the hamburger on high heat (7) and then lower the heat to "5", cover the pan, and then flip the hamburger(s) only once, about eight minutes into cooking. 5) Cook the hamburgers for about 13 minutes for medium, about 15 minutes for medium well, about 17 minutes for well done. 6) Or do what you just did and have yourself a McDonalds burger at home! 😁
