- Hey friends welcome to Paula's quarantine kitchen.
0:05
If y'all are still quarantinin', I hope that--
0:09
- I am.
0:10
- I know you are.
0:12
You'll probably be quarantined for the next--
0:13
10 years. - Forever (laughs).
0:16
- I hope that these videos make you smile
0:20
and pass some of the time away.
0:22
This is my daughter-in-law, Claudia.
0:24
She's married to Bobby, my youngest son.
0:27
And she is the mother of triplets, the baby.
0:31
We have triplets in our family.
0:33
So she is a life coach.
0:35
She is a triathlete and she's just all around amazing.
0:41
And she has been showing me some things this morning
0:47
that are good, not only for your babies,
0:51
which you're teaching them
0:52
to eat a variety of foods
0:55
that are so good for 'em and tasty.
0:58
She's gonna show us.
1:00
And this can be adult or your babies--
1:03
can't it. - Yes.
1:04
- What you're gonna make.
1:05
She is gonna show me and you
1:09
how she makes them healthy pancakes, right?
1:12
- Yes, and this is the thing
1:13
that we make the most at the house.
1:15
- I know-- - I would say.
1:16
- Every time I turn around, I ask you
1:17
and you say, "I'm makin' pancakes!"
1:19
- It used to be pasta.
1:21
- I know it!
1:21
I thought pasta. - That was back then.
1:23
- Those children are gon' turn into a noodle (laughs).
1:27
- Amelia is like a noodle.
1:28
But they ate it so good--
1:30
- Yeah.
1:31
- All three of your babies
1:32
have such a wonderful appetite.
1:34
- Yeah, yeah.
1:35
- But I think it's because the more you expose them
1:37
to something-- - Yes.
1:37
- The more, you know-- - Yes.
1:39
- That's why-- - Yes.
1:39
- I try to do variety.
1:40
- You can't wait until they're four or five years old--
1:43
- Yeah.
1:44
- To introduce them to broccoli or squash.
1:47
- And they already, choose what they prefer.
1:50
- They love a sweet potato--
1:51
don't they?
1:52
- Yeah.
1:52
- Or a banana.
1:53
(talking over each other)
1:55
- So you are gonna make a pancake.
1:59
- So this is a twist on a regular or banana pancake.
2:03
So a lot of people just get the box ones.
2:05
And I do that too.
2:08
- You can get a box.
2:09
- A lot of people do that,
2:10
just because it's convenient.
2:11
You just go to a store and get a box and do it.
2:13
- You're talkin' about a box of--
2:15
- Mix. - Pancake mix.
2:16
- So people do that because they're like,
2:18
"Oh, it's so hard to make them at home.
2:20
but that's not true.
2:20
Literally to make this,
2:22
because there's a brand of,
2:23
we're not talking to brands,
2:24
but there is a brand of pancake,
2:26
like box pancakes that I really like.
2:29
And literally to make that
2:31
and make this takes--
2:32
- Which one is it?
2:35
Who (chuckles)?
2:39
Codioka cake.
2:40
- Kodiak cakes (laughs).
2:40
- I never heard of 'em (laughs).
2:43
- They're based in Utah.
2:44
- Oh.
2:45
- But they're really good.
2:46
They became real popular--
2:47
and they're really good. - Yeah.
2:48
So I like those, but literally to make the Kodiak cakes,
2:51
like the pancakes, I'm making this
2:53
takes me the exact same time.
2:54
So sometimes I make the Kodiak cakes for me,
2:56
but I make this for the babies
2:57
just because this is again, way more natural.
3:00
There is nothing, you know, and it takes a second.
3:03
The cool thing about this--
3:06
- What's in there?
3:07
- Well, that's where we're gonna go.
3:08
- Okay.
3:09
- The cool thing about this recipe
3:11
is that it's very, patience.
3:12
You need patience.
3:13
- You know I'm short on those (laughs).
3:17
- Is that it's very versatile.
3:18
So you have the base
3:19
that I'll show you what the base is
3:21
and that you can make it into carrot pancakes,
3:24
beets pancakes, spinach pancakes,
3:27
whatever you want it pancakes.
3:28
Sweet potato pancakes.
3:30
So I always make this, but I always switch up.
3:33
- I thought you had told me before
3:35
that you had different ingredients--
3:39
- Yes.
3:39
- My eyes are hurtin' so bad.
3:40
- Why don't you put the glasses on?
3:42
- Well, I actually should be in sunglasses but--
3:46
- But you wanna see me.
3:47
- I won't really be able to see ya (laughs).
3:50
- So you should be wearing that hat I gave you.
3:54
- Then you wouldn't be able to see my face (laughs).
3:57
Claudia gave me the neatest hat the other day.
3:59
Y'all it's--
4:00
- Oh, he's right there.
4:01
- Yes (laughs)!
4:02
- Okay, okay.
4:04
Wait, wait.
4:05
Well, I didn't give it to you though.
4:06
The triplets did.
4:07
- Yeah, the triplets.
4:09
I hung it right there, so when I go outside,
4:11
it's right there handy.
4:14
- So you don't get sun from--
4:15
- And I mean, it will protect that sun from you (laughs).
4:21
I like it, I like it a lot.
4:22
- It's great.
4:23
Okay, so we're gonna do this.
4:26
So you do the base--
4:27
- Oh my eyes itch so bad.
4:28
- Because you are not wearing the hat, I'm telling you.
4:30
- Okay. - Okay.
4:32
- Much better. - Okay.
4:33
- So you do the base and then you can do again,
4:37
sweet potato, whatever you wanna do.
4:38
- Okay
4:39
- The base is gonna be--
4:40
- We're just gonna do the base.
4:42
- The base and then we'll add the fun factor.
4:45
- Okay.
4:46
- I always like to do in this type of blenders,
4:49
I always like to do the liquid first,
4:51
and then last do the other dry--
4:53
- Okay, okay.
4:54
- So it doesn't get stuck.
4:55
- Okay.
4:56
- So, it's very simple.
4:57
It's only one-third cup of whole milk.
4:59
- Okay.
5:00
- Again, if you don't do whole milk
5:03
because it's for you or whatever,
5:04
you can use almond milk, whatever.
5:05
But for the babies I do whole milk
5:06
and I feel like the texture is better when
5:09
you do whole milk than when you do,
5:10
I've done almond milk.
5:12
And they don't get like as fluffy.
5:14
And then we're gonna do two eggs, okay.
5:18
(egg plopping)
5:19
- Flop pop! - That sounded pretty good.
5:19
(Claudia laughs)
5:20
- Fizz fizz.
5:21
- I like that.
5:22
Another egg.
5:24
- Pop!
5:24
- I like it!
5:25
(Paula laughs)
5:26
- I like it too!
5:27
- And then we're gonna do a banana and a half.
5:30
Same thing if you were on--
5:32
our previous episode. - A ripe banana.
5:35
- Of quarantine cookin' with Paula on the side bowl.
5:38
- I know they gon' wonder why do they never change clothes?
5:40
- Yeah, just go back and watch.
5:44
You wanna do like the more ripe it is,
5:47
then the sweeter it is.
5:48
We are gonna do-- - The sweeter it is.
5:49
- One and a half.
5:50
But sometimes I do two.
5:52
Dependin'-- - Just dependin'.
5:53
- On what they look like.
5:55
- Yeah and now depending on how much,
5:56
how pancakes I want to come out of 'em.
5:58
- Yeah, yeah.
6:00
- Okay, and then we're gonna do half a cup of oatmeal.
6:02
just quick oats.
6:03
- I was gon' say--
6:04
yeah. - Quick oats.
6:05
- Quick oats.
6:07
- Make sure I don't do messy.
6:08
And this blend is starting to be smaller now.
6:10
- I know, it gets small--
6:14
real fast - Real fast.
6:15
- We'll see all these works.
6:16
And then we're gonna do again, constipation,
6:19
our favorite topic.
6:21
(Paula laughs)
6:21
Flax seeds.
6:22
- Yes.
6:23
- So, because this is getting small,
6:24
I'm gonna go ahead and blend it.
6:25
So this is the base.
6:26
You can do this under your pancakes and that's perfect.
6:30
Okay. - Okay.
6:31
- Okay, you are the blender master.
6:33
- Okay, I'm the blender.
6:35
- You did a good job with the big guy.
6:37
- Yes, okay.
6:38
Here we go.
6:39
This one not as flash.
6:40
(blender whirring)
6:42
- [Claudia] It it even working?
6:45
- [Paula] Yeah, whoops.
6:47
Yeah, it's working.
6:49
This one just takes a minute.
6:51
(blender whirring)
6:56
- [Claudia] Perfect!
6:57
- Yeah. - Oh wow.
7:01
- [Paula] Just tell me when you think
7:01
it's done enough for ya.
7:05
- Perfect. - Okay.
7:06
- [Claudia] So we are gonna add--
7:08
- [Paula] I wanna know what's in there?
7:10
- [Claudia] Well, patience, Paula.
7:13
So you can go ahead and make your pancakes or again,
7:16
I will do half a baked sweet potato, okay.
7:21
Out of there, it will be great.
7:22
Sometimes I grab a handful of spinach.
7:24
- [Paula] Yes.
7:25
- It's great.
7:26
- Yes.
7:27
- Sometimes I grab carrots--
7:30
like shredded carrots. - Yes.
7:31
- It's great.
7:32
And today we're gonna use.
7:35
(container lid snapping)
7:37
Beets! - Yay!
7:42
- [Paula] I happen to love beets.
7:43
- [Claudia] Do you really?
7:45
- I love beets. - I'm not their biggest fan.
7:46
- But you can.
7:47
- Now are these fresh beets?
7:48
- Oh yeah.
7:49
You grab your fresh beet,
7:50
and then you just chik, chik, chik, chik, chik.
7:52
- Hmmm, I just love a beet.
7:54
- This is fun for kids if you have girls--
7:58
and you wanna give them. - Yeah.
8:00
- These are gonna turn like really fuchsia color.
8:03
- Yeah, oh fine! - So they're super pretty!
8:05
- Yeah. - Yeah.
8:06
- So they're super pretty. - Oh fine, yeah.
8:06
- And you know how people have pizza parties.
8:08
Michelle and Daniel, they've got some friends
8:12
and neighbors that have a pizza cooker--
8:16
and they go over there. - Oh that's fun.
8:16
- And they put out these-- - Do the toppings.
8:17
- All these ingredients and let everybody make their own,
8:21
which is fun for 'em.
8:22
- Yeah. - Outside.
8:24
- Okay so, (chuckles)might get stuff for that too,
8:29
for my nose.
8:31
(mumbles) the mix.
8:32
- So it smells good and bananawie.
8:34
- Yeah, what I will do is if you wanna make them green,
8:38
like for some Patrick's day,
8:39
then you can add spinach.
8:40
The spinach doesn't alter the taste at all.
8:42
The same with the smoothies and stuff.
8:44
- Yeah.
8:44
- You add spinach, that's a great way--
8:46
to get kids to eat it. - How much beets.
8:47
- Are we gon' put in there?
8:48
- Are you trying to get me to shut up?
8:50
It sounds like it.
8:51
(Paula laughs)
8:53
- About that, another spoon.
8:55
- You're so perceptive.
8:57
- I know you too well now.
8:59
Okay, we'll put two big tablespoons
9:01
and then if you do carrots, they're orange.
9:04
And if you do beets, they're gonna be fuchsia.
9:07
- Yes. - There you blend it.
9:08
- That's great.
9:09
(blender whirring)
9:18
(Paula shouting inaudibly over blender)
9:25
- [Claudia] Oh yeah.
9:26
(blender whirring)
9:31
- [Claudia] Okay cool.
9:33
See how pretty they are.
9:34
- Hmmm hmmm. - Okay.
9:35
- That is wonderful. - They'll have fun.
9:37
- [Claudia] Now you can put more.
9:38
(Claudia speaks off mic)
9:41
(blender whirring)
9:46
That'll be fine.
9:48
All right cool.
9:50
There you go!
9:51
You're fine-- - They're nice.
9:52
- And then you just--
9:53
- We're gonna cook these in butter, you say.
9:55
- Yeah, then you just cook them like a regular pancake.
9:58
- How much butter?
9:59
- How pretty, as much as you want.
10:02
I know that's dangerous to say that.
10:04
And we're wrapping it up.
10:07
Usually at my house, we don't have
10:08
this fancy old school equipment.
10:11
So I just do it in-- - An old hoecake pan.
10:13
- [Paula] I'll use a regular pan, you know?
10:17
And I put a little bit of butter.
10:18
- And I notice that you make big ones.
10:21
- [Claudia] Yeah, I make big ones.
10:23
- [Paula] Look how pretty that color is y'all.
10:26
- [Claudia] I guess that's fine.
10:27
- [Paula] I'm gon' cut it back up a little bit more.
10:30
- [Claudia] So what I do is that I cook it like that.
10:31
And then the same of the avocado toast.
10:33
I just started in squares that they--
10:35
can just grab. - Yeah.
10:36
- [Paula] I saw that the other night.
10:38
It's been a long time since I've been
10:40
to your house during suppertime.
10:45
But you had given them pancakes for supper.
10:47
- [Claudia] I think that they were beets pancakes too.
10:49
- I don't know, I don't remember.
10:51
- Yeah, because I think it was like two days.
10:53
(background knocking and rumbling)
10:54
Once we try the beets
10:55
you'll have three pancakes that you know.
10:57
- So you just got fresh beets, and grated 'em.
11:01
- That's it.
11:02
- I love 'em roasted.
11:04
- Oh you do.
11:04
I'm gonna try to get them by you two days.
11:07
- With all the vegetables I could catch.
11:10
- Yes.
11:11
- Your potatoes, your parsnip.
11:13
- I love parsnips.
11:14
- I do too.
11:15
- I bought parsnips to give 'em
11:16
so we'll see how that goes.
11:19
I make it like a regular pancake.
11:20
Once it starts making bubbles,
11:22
you just flip them and that's it.
11:25
So for the babies,
11:26
since they are not eating with a fork and a knife yet--
11:31
- Oh we'll have 'em doin' that no time.
11:33
- They'll eat it.
11:35
I don't put syrup, since they eat it with their hands.
11:38
I don't put syrup, butter or anything else.
11:40
You're gonna see they're very tasty how they are.
11:42
And they just eat it like this.
11:44
- [Paula] Didn't you put sugar?
11:46
- No, the banana. - You didn't put any sugar.
11:47
- The banana.
11:48
- Because I tasted 'em the other night
11:50
and they tasted sweet.
11:51
- The banana.
11:52
- And if you have banana and beets,
11:53
that's even the sweeter.
11:55
And the thing, if you have the banana and sweet potato,
11:57
that's sweet, banana and carrots, that's sweet.
12:01
- That's a beautiful batter.
12:03
- You don't have to do like any type of sweetener at all.
12:07
And It's gonna turn out really sweet, yeah.
12:09
- All right, now I think I asked you earlier,
12:11
are you givin' them honey yet?
12:13
- Yes.
12:14
This after their one, you can give them honey.
12:16
- I was gonna say.
12:17
And I didn't know that until Henry was born
12:21
because I was keepin' Henry for Michelle
12:25
and he was not a year old.
12:27
(Claudia laughs)
12:29
- And you gave him honey.
12:30
- Listen, I fixed him a fabulous breakfast.
12:34
I fixed him like
12:38
a loaded oatmeal that was just perfectly yummy.
12:42
And I topped it with honey and he gobbled it up!
12:47
And I told Michelle when she came to pick him up,
12:49
I said, oh, I cooked him the best breakfast.
12:53
We had loaded oatmeal and with honey and nuts,
12:58
and she looked at me like with what?
13:01
You did what?
13:02
You gave him what?
13:05
Why would you not be able to give a baby honey?
13:08
- They explained to us
13:08
that is because there's like a bacteria
13:10
in the honey that I guess your body
13:14
doesn't have, you know, the strength
13:16
or whatever to fight these bacteria
13:19
until you're one.
13:20
So I think that could literally die from eating honey.
13:25
- I did not know that.
13:27
- Yeah, I don't just give them honey,
13:30
but sometimes they do like their yogurt
13:33
and then I'll put that.
13:34
Usually I do maple syrup for some reason.
13:36
I do more maple syrup not honey.
13:38
But there's like some cookies
13:39
that I buy that are sweetened with honey.
13:41
- Well, you know, in our line,
13:44
in the Paula Deen line,
13:45
we've got some of the most fabulous honey
13:47
you have ever put in your mouth.
13:49
- I don't think I've tried it.
13:50
- Yeah, there's three different flavors.
13:53
There's wild berry, wildflower and orange blossom.
14:00
And you know the flavor of the honey depends
14:02
on where the bee lives.
14:04
- Yes, yes.
14:05
- And oh my gracious-- - It's so good.
14:07
- It is so good.
14:10
- [Claudia] I would probably, if it was me,
14:12
I would have probably cook it a little bit faster,
14:14
but I don't know if it's your fancy, old school...
14:18
(Paula laughs)
14:18
- [Paula] I want it on medium high.
14:21
But I thought it would bubble.
14:24
- [Claudia] You want me to try and flip it
14:25
or do you wanna do it?
14:26
- [Paula] It doesn't matter.
14:26
- [Claudia] Okay, you can do it.
14:27
So if you ruin it, it's your fault.
14:31
Hey!!!
14:32
You're the expert.
14:34
How you're whipping that.
14:35
- [Paula] This ain't my first rodeo.
14:36
- [Claudia] Yeah, I see that.
14:38
- [Claudia] Well, I guess.
14:39
- If you look at me you think,
14:40
damn she's been to a thousand rodeos (laughs).
14:46
- So see how they're pink,
14:47
and only because this is a cast iron skillet--
14:50
that's probably why. - Yeah.
14:51
- It's even like more brownish--
14:52
up top. - Yeah.
14:53
- Like if you could get in a regular skillet,
14:54
it will probably be even pinkier, you know?
14:57
But they're really pretty.
15:00
I think that's ready.
15:00
I usually, after I flip it, yeah,
15:03
I just take it off.
15:04
But that's only because I don't have a lot of patience.
15:06
- Why?
15:08
You were telling me patience.
15:10
I don't have patience.
15:12
- [Claudia] But I'm like that.
15:15
- [Paula] It kind of broke when I did it like that.
15:18
- So that's what you saw,
15:19
when they're like that I just do.
15:22
Yeah, well that's pretty good, perfect.
15:25
- [Paula] Okay.
15:26
- [Claudia] So I'm gonna have one.
15:27
- [Paula] Yeah.
15:28
Okay, I'll take these home.
15:32
- [Paula] Yes.
15:33
- [Claudia] Give it to Aunt Peggy,
15:34
maybe she'll like it.
15:36
We have to wait until it gets cold, right.
15:38
It's too hot, it's still hot.
15:39
Also the other thing that I wait,
15:40
is I wait for it to cool down,
15:42
so it's the right consistency.
15:43
It's like a cake.
15:45
So if you eat it right away, it's gonna be mushy.
15:47
So we have to wait.
15:48
- [Paula] And how long do we have to wait?
15:50
- [Claudia] Patients kitty.
15:52
(Paula laughs)
15:55
Okay, let me show you since we're doing this.
15:58
'Cause we're only doing one.
15:59
This is what I will do for the babies.
16:00
I'll wait for it to cool.
16:01
And it probably will cool while I'm making the other ones,
16:03
you know.
16:04
- [Paula] This is very good.
16:05
- [Claudia] Yeah, and then--
16:06
- [Paula] But it would be so much gooder or with syrup.
16:08
- [Claudia] Yeah.
16:09
We can have our syrup, but this is not for the babies.
16:12
So see how hot it is.
16:13
So if you cut it right now,
16:14
it's like a cake, then it'll crumble.
16:16
Always let it cool--
16:18
a little bit. - Yeah, yeah.
16:18
- [Claudia] But this is what I will do,
16:19
if it was for the babies.
16:21
- [Paula] 'Cause it maintains its shape
16:22
once it gets cool.
16:23
- [Claudia] Once it gets cool, yeah, because again,
16:25
this is not from a box.
16:26
This is all naturals.
16:27
I give their pieces, that they eat are about this size.
16:31
And then I just give them a bunch of that
16:33
and they'll just eat it with their hands.
16:34
- And they'll reach
16:35
in their bowl like this (laughs).
16:40
They're so cute.
16:41
- They're very cute.
16:43
- Well, that's delicious Claudia.
16:49
- They're really good.
16:50
- Delicious.
16:51
- And again, they don't have any sugar or anything.
16:52
So again, if you have like whatever,
16:54
now you're trying to cut on sugar,
16:55
this is like a great option.
16:57
- And it tasted like sweet.
17:01
And I used butter.
17:03
The only kind of butter I ever use y'all is salty,
17:06
because I love sweet and salty
17:10
and that salty little butter just makes it doesn't.
17:15
- I was gonna say that,
17:17
that this is salty and it's from the butter.
17:19
I use unsalted for the babies.
17:22
So maybe it tastes sweeter,
17:23
but I love the sweet on salty too.
17:24
Well, what were talking about,
17:25
cheese and plantains and whatever.
17:28
So yeah, that's it. - It is so, so good.
17:30
So these will make about three pancakes.
17:33
This amount, so three to four.
17:37
Well that was fun.
17:42
Are you cleaning yourself on my shoulder?
17:46
That's what I do on Bobby.
17:47
And he always catches me.
17:49
Are you cleaning yourself on me?
17:51
Y'all let me know if y'all enjoyed Claudia
17:55
being here with us.
17:57
And if you didn't enjoy her, I'm sorry.
18:00
- I'm here to stay.
18:02
- She ain't going nowhere.
18:04
(laughing together)
18:06
So no, anyway, I'm being,
18:08
ooh, that's a big muscle right there.
18:12
Girl you got you some muscles.
18:16
So anyway, if there is something
18:20
that you would like to see Claudia cook
18:22
from her background and her heritage,
18:27
just go on Facebook or can they go in yours?
18:31

18:34
- [Claudia] Yes, Claudia Deen.
18:36
- Claudia Deen.
18:36

18:47

18:48
- Yes.
18:49
Just be careful with what you ask.
18:51
Nothing too fancy.
18:52
I'm not well not Paula.
18:54
- Well I'm really do want,
18:57

19:00
It was so good.
19:02
So just let us know.
19:04

19:07
- We'll do that next time.
19:08
- Okay. - Yeah.
19:09
- If they want you back.
19:11
- If you don't I'll be back making the plantain, so.
19:14
I'll see you then.
