At the end, you’ll see the coolest tip, too!
To commemorate the debut of Quick fix Suppers, we’d like for you to go watch the videos and come back and tell us what you think!
I’ll pick ten comments at random on Sunday night and we’ll send each of those an advance copy of the June issue of Southern Living Magazine, which hits newsstands on May 20th.
I would really appreciate it if you could help me spread the word about my new series! Please head on over and watch them and be sure and tell your friends!
Gratefully, Christy

Hooray for you and all of us who need some Quick-Fix dinner ideas. All your videos were great and I look forward to seeing more on Southern Living. I don’t subscribe to their magazine (as I’m a Midwesterner) but would love a free copy of their magazine especially if they have you featured in it! I liked the idea of using the rotisseree chicken as a base for the King Ranch Casserole. With those already prepared in the grocery store, even the dark meat tastes great!
Thanks for the time saving videos – summer is here and I’m always running late!
I love cooking but hate spending long periods of time in the kitchen. I loved the chicken taco video. Was super fast and looked delish. Totally making it this week. Also,loved the tip about using the muffin pan to fill the tacos!!! Anything that gets me out of the kitchen faster and makes meal prep easier…..Count me in!!!
First time visiting this site. I came as a result of seeing the cookbook on QVC. Obviously not focused on healthy cooking and eating. Won’t be coming back.
We’re proud to have ya if only briefly Donna hon, and wish you the best and we’re all just gonna love you anyway! Life is good, look for the blessings!
In the south, our mamas teach us, “If you can’t say anything good, don’t say anything at all.” While you may live to be 90 by choosing healthy cooking and eating, it may be worth it to sacrifice 5 or 10 years and live a happy life on positivity and hamburger steak!
I declare there are so oooo many comments that everyone seeks to find
‘a quick ‘n easy’ receipe; especially with summer coming, honey!
Southern Living was one of the first magazine’s I subscribed to when this Southern Lady moved to the Great Northwest.
Loved, loved the fiesta look of the tacos and the wonderful tip on how to fill them using something most of us have on hand; a muffin tip ya’ll.
One cannot win a giveaway without entering and so it is a little like fishin’ you put your entry in and hope your pole (comment) is a lucky catch.
you should be so proud of yourself! and I’m so glad you made it through the storms ok.
I think you did a great job !I loved the recipe and the great tips I can’t wait to try it.I will spread the word about it to family and friends. I can’t wait till future video’s!!! yea!!!!!!
How exciting Christy! I loved the show. My family loves tacos and I thought the muffin tin idea was genius! I can’t wait to try the mango salsa!
I think you will love the salsa!! And the muffin tin idea is a life-saver. Thank you so much for your kind comments!
Love the video, you are a natural
Great job on the videos, Christy!
too late for drawing, but had to tell you the muffin pan trick is killer
Congratulations on your video series! You did such a great job!
I had to tell you that my daughter had an upset stomach this past weekend and her only request was french toast….but no loaf bread in the house. I was flipping through your cookbook and TA-DA! “Waste-not, want-not french toast”!! Caroline was able to pick up the hotdog buns like french toast sticks and you’re right, you can’t beat the taste! YUM!!
Thank you for all of your great ideas and recipes!
Wonderful job new star of Southern Living and QVC!!! I was not home yesterday but video taped it (how old school am I). You were fabulous and that southern boy host was lovin your momma’s receipes! Makes my heart swell to see a home town girl do well…
I recorded the session and watched it today! You looked so fantastic! I’m so excited for you! It looked like you had a grand time. You are blessing people with your food and your message. I’m blessed to have met you at the Nashville book signing! Life is good! Blessings!
I have already been checking this website for ideas. This is really a great accomplishment and I am very happy for you.
You are such a natural! Can’t wait to see the next one!
Hey Christy, I love the videos on SL. Whodathunk of using a muffin tin as a taco stand. Great tidbit!! I was sorry to miss you on QVC we had company for lunch and most of the afternoon on Sunday. I made your Mama’s chicken planks for supper two nights ago and it was a huge success. It’s probably good I don’t live in Alabama, I’d probably be stalking you to the grocery store just to meet you. You just touch my heart. I’m kidding about the stalking part…kinda…;)
~giggles~ I would love to meet you some day.
Christy….. You Go Girl….Great Job!!! You are a natural in front of that camera.
Using the muffin tin is a good tip……and I will use it this week
MICHELLE……I would “stalk” her too……

Love the video. Neat ideas.
