It's no surprise Carrie Underwood is a woman of many talents. In addition to her blockbuster music career (yes, she can play the drums), she's an entrepreneur, TV host, and mom to two small boys. And life at her Tennessee farm has her cooking and gardening, and now she's combining those two passions with a new hobby: canning.

The powerhouse vocalist shares her homesteading efforts on Instagram, whether she's making sourdough bread or tending to the animals on her farm. But her latest project elicited a lot of comments from her fans.

It seems the "Jesus Take the Wheel" singer had a bumper crop of garlic that she needed to clear from her root cellar. So she got to work pickling, canning, and drying her crop to use for future recipes and shared photos of the impressive process.

Carrie wrote, "Spent all day yesterday dealing with all the garlic in the root cellar. I’ll have a new crop coming later this year so I figured I might as well preserve last year’s haul. I pickled some, minced and pressure canned some and dried some for garlic powder. Our whole house now smells like garlic, but I’m happy with how it all turned out! Now it’s ready to use when I need it! 🧄"

Fans left messages praising Carrie's efforts: "I’ve never seen someone dry garlic for garlic powder (except Costco 💁🏼‍♀️) I’m impressed Carrie!" Another wrote, "You are amazing ! You have a great career, a husband and 2 children and yet you still find time to grow, can and process your food. Thank you for showing us the down to earth side of you!" One commenter said, "New mad respect little lady. So glad after all the fame u still got it. Your up bringing it really shows who and what u are."

Another joked (we think!), "Sing a song about garlic."

We love seeing what Carrie is up to in her down time. In less than two months, she'll be returning to host the new season of American Idol!
