I love this recipe. I've made it a few times now. I tend to leave it in the oven a little longer so my potatoes cook thoroughly.
Delicious
Давно не видела ваших видео!!! Очень приятно вас снова видеть!!!!
وصفة سهلة تبدو لذيذة
The kids yelling in backround is so homey
Gorgeous looking salad!! Love the meat & potatoes recipe, too. Thanks.
Thank you Chef Sophie,!!!
I remember when i subscribed to this channel when corona was a thing. Now you have over 5 million subscribers. Where is the time gone.
Lecker!
What cheese could i sub for the gruyere, in Canada gruyere is very expensive, about 10$/100grams.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
These seem great. But my spouse says no to onions and garlic. Leaving them out probably ruins most of these recipes. I would make them just for me, but they hate the smell even more. 😭
OMG……So good comfort food!!! I didn't expect the delicious salad also! Fantastic video Chef!👍
This looks delicious!!❤❤
Looks fabulous…tasty! Also love the extra "pop" that the salad gets from the various colors of the cherry tomatoes.
Danke sehr ! ❤

I doubt I will ever be making this in my lifetime. Too complicated, but thanks anyway. 😮
Way too complicated 😕!!! Too many potatoes. Good God!!!😮😮
A bowl of cereal will do me just fine after watching ALL THIS MADNESS!!!
Oh wait. Is this the super simple cook channel? My apologies.
3:37 thats some knife skills Sophie!
Definitely a hearty meal. I’ll try it with ground Turkey.
has anyone substituted white potatoes for sweet potatoes/ground beef for ground chicken?
This is a great way to sneak in veggies for the family.
Gonna try this one once the cooler weather comes.
It looks fantastic. I'm going to give it a try. Thank you for the recipe.
Just made this tonight, so good, g
Hearty, and delish! I added sour cream and a dash of hot sauce and it elevated it. I added cheddar cheese with gruyere cheese. Def making this again! The milk/heavy cream makes for an awesome brothy creamy texture
video hay quá bạn,cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ
👍 Thank you so much
Looks good and easy. Zucchini is a good swap-out for mushrooms here. Thanks!
healthy ,delicious and protein-packed!😍
This makes me miss cheese. I guess I could make it for the neighbors and have like 1/20 of it
I make a wicked craft dinner 😂
Onions hurt my gut gives me horrible gas gotta leave them out
Nothing tastier than ground beef and potatoes. Simple but delicious 😋
I hope you bought the beef from a good quality butcher and not all that crap from all Supermarkets and shops
Can you substitute Gruyere cheese with Parmiggiano Reggiano?
My dear Sophie,
Why so fast? I love your more relaxed and slower, longer content. I still love you, though. 🩵😊 Thank you for all your amazing recipes I’ve made so many of them over the years. My husband and I say, “mmmm, lecker” together at the end every time. 😂
You don’t make it almost every weekend .
This looks absolutely delicious I will be making this one soon. Thank you for sharing 🇨🇦
This person has about 500 recipes that they claim to make every week. Must have about 100 kids. (I didn't watch the video.)
Wow! 👍🏻 I’m going to try making this. About the cheese: Can I use Parmesan instead? By the way, it’s so cute hearing the kids in the background! 👍🏻🤣
