Great haul.

Saving money by eating free food..yeah we could all save money that way.

That looks lovely

Many years ago (1970’s) the US government was giving away 5lb blocks of aged cheese from the government cheese reserve (yes, they had such a thing, lol). It seemed like everyone could get it, we ended up with 3 blocks (15lbs!). Delicious! A fond childhood memory. We had all sorts of grilled cheeses (with ham, with tomatoes, patty melts) and so much Mac and cheese! I’m sure you and your family will enjoy all the cheese!

I live in tucson az. I still grocery shop occasionaly, but i still go to the food pantry at the church across the street. Get lots of great stuff that supplements my food . Have noticed the amount of people has increased as we all try to save $

Oat fiber is finely ground hull from oats and it's added too meats too extend shelf life of foods by absorbing liquids. My family loves chicken Alfredo, just chop up the chicken and add pasta, Alfredo sauce and sometimes my daughter adds broccoli. You can also cook the chicken in the crackpot and shred it and make it into quesadillas, tacos or add it too salads. I always enjoy watching your hauls.

Cook the chicken . Take the chicken off the bones. Then make chicken noodle, rice and dumpling soups. I also like Banquet meat and mixed vegetable pie. Chicken cream of chicken, mushroom soup, mixed vegetables with biscuits on top. Cabbage shred is cooked till soft and cooked noodles with butter. Also buttered cut cooked cabbage.

Oat fiber is a binder, it extends the meat. And yes it is like adding oatmeal or oats to meatloaf rather than bread crumbs.

The chicken you can make chicken Ala king over biscuits, chicken pot pie , chicken and dumplings the beef patties are really good they taste just like burger King burgers

Brown chicken in oil. Remove. Add cream of soup, some water, rice. Return chicken to skillet. Cover, boil, turn down to simmer for about 20 minutes.

Thanks for sharing your food bank haul with us today ❤❤😂

Hello newbie here from Canton Ohio pro football hall of fame city🏈 food pantry hall looks delicious. Where are you from

Cabbage soups are so good. Many recipes on TH-cam.

Boiled dinner...add cabbage, carrots, potato, onion, turnip and beef or pork bones. Look up recipes but very popular dinner here as it feeds a lot for less money.

Apple pie, apple crisp, apple muffins or butternut. Squash and apple soup. Also apples in a crockpot oatmeal and top with fresh apple and peanut butter.

Apple cake apple pie, chicken works well in thai curry along with peppers. You can slice up peppers and freeze then later roast with onions and seasonings, so yummy

Italian crockpot chicken, works great with chicken breasts, little potatoes and in green beans all in the crockpot with italian salad dressing and italian seasoning, yummy . SLICE CABBAGE in slices sprinkle with oil and seasonings and roast

Apple pie, Apple cobbler, Apple dumplings, take the cooked hamburger patties and add brown gravy with onions and mushrooms and voila you have Salisbury Steak, chicken recipes hubby's favorite is crack chicken. Google for a recipe. P.S. that pulled pork is absolutely disgusting. So fatty. I've tried preparing it 4 ways, including smothering it in barbecue sauce and it is just horrible. Mama to All Homestead has tried 3 different ways and can't make it usable either.

Great haul. It's a pity that we must go to food banks and pantries to survive. Our country is in great jeopardy of going into another great depression... Enjoying your video! Oat fiber is a fine powder from the oat hull and is an insoluble fiber. It's very healthy. It is used in meats as a binding agent.

You really got another great haul!! I had received some of that pulled pork. I didn't pay any attention to the ingredients. There's something about the tecture and under taste that I couldn't figure out. I will definitely check ingredients the next time I receive some and see if it has the oat fiber in it. Of course when you mentioned it I had to google it. It's a protein that's added usually to breads. 🤷🏼‍♀️. Fried cabbage is delicious. If you havn't cooked it that way, just slice the cabbage, put it in a skillet with some oil (I like using bacon drippings). You can add a little broth and of course season to taste with your choice of seasonings. I add sliced onion. Kinda saute the cabbage for a little while. Can cover the pan if you'd like. I let it cook til the cabbage is tender but some of the green color is still left in it. I just don't like mushy cabbage. I enjoy snacking on croutons too if they're soft enough for me to bite lol I'm going to try your chicken pot pie soon. I just happen to have those ingredients on hand. 😊 From Cheryl in MS - take care, stay safe, love your videos, God bless.

Another amazing haul❤🎉 best chicken recipe we make is chicken and rice cook the chicken in the crockpot with can of cream of chicken soup, shred it and make rice add it and rice back in salt and pepper to taste and add some butter at least 2 tbsp depending on how much rice, might need 4 tbsp but I use 2 for 2 cups of rice, mix together and it’s so warm cozy and tasty! Or chicken n dumplings, the olives are so good!! Not really hot, but definitely spicy! Those frozen apples I would make apple crisp or do like fried apples with a side of ice cream for nice fall dessert ❤

All of that meat and bakery items are such a blessing!!! ❤

The Biden Harris policies are causing the inflation. They are communists.

I just love these "frugal" and "money saving" you tubers ..you're saving money on the backs of taxpayers...the stores take a tax credit when they donate...yeah but you're "frugal"...lol

Show your grocery haul and how you utilize foods from the food bank to bring it all together

I can't imagine a food bank like this.

too much talking

Those eggs are a blessing; you need to have a rich uncle to afford them nowadays. 😂

I love to watch your foodbank hauls! Getting creative with less familiar foods is so interesting! As others have said the first vegetable is a rutabaga, a root veggie that can be used similarly to potato in soup or stew. The leafy veggie is bok choy and is delicious in stir fry or even in the veggie soup with the rutabaga; it has a texture between cabbage and celery when cooked.

Yes they make it worse. The stores that donate get a tax break from the government. It is nice that they give and I don't mind the breaks they get. Corporations milk people for every penny they can get.

I absolutely think corporate greed is an issue because prices have went up and they're not going to take a loss so they're raising the price of products and we have to pay the difference and they won't lose out on any of their profits.

The lunchables Only four pieces of meat which is like one piece of lunch meat cut up 4 squares of cheese which is like one slice broken up and four crackers imagine how many lunchables you can make with a box of crackers a pack of cheese and a pack of lunch meat and a pack of cookies you could probably make 20 lunchables for 7 or 8 dollars

I came across your videos the other day and I've watched a handful of them and I feel like I should probably start going back to the food bank sometimes because I've noticed that I've been spending $100 to $200 more a month in the last few months compared to before and that hurts when it comes time to paying bills and other things. So thank you for the inspiration.

A wonderful food pantry haul and thanks so much for sharing this with us today and enjoy your day xoxoxo muh ❤❤

I have a worst school lunch story, I was in the 6th grade just started middle school. It was a hot day, in CA, I was sitting there eating my lunch. All of a sudden I was hit in the head by a flying apple. Kids started to laugh while i sat there crying. The only one that asked me if i was okay was a boy I had a crush on. Thanks Charles!

I wish we would get ham steaks. FYI, that pulled pork is disgusting and nothing will help it. The fish is pronounced paw luck.

Never considered Food Bank as only source of food. Just to supplement your grocery money. You could stretch this for 5-7 days with some careful planning and cooking. But with a small grocery haul and utilizing some spices that you have on hand. White Beans aren’t just for stockpile-cook them. Lots of recipes online. White chicken chili is an easy and delicious crockpot meal. You can get several meals of protein out of those beans.

I would freeze the icing and then use it to frost a Halloween cake in October. 🥮 Great haul. 💚

Yes they are

Lady, I am so glad your back!!! I missed your videos! You have the best food bank hauls they are so practical and useful! I know I think you said y’all were down one vehicle hope you got it fixed! That Italian cheese bread looks amazing from little Caesar’s pizza!! That fruit❤ I’d be in heaven!

I wonder if the numbers are categories. Because I noticed that your pasta and the canned spaghetti sauce and tomatoes were the same number

I don't know if you have opened the crunchy peanut butter yet but if you still have it or if you get it again maybe use it to make cookies. If the kids don't like it on peanut butter and jelly cookies is a good option Ori in oatmeal

I just found your channel while I was watching a different food bank haul. But I just love the way that you talk about your dad and I can tell you have a very close family and I just think that's so awesome bless your family and your journey.

Bay-gle

Baygels not bag ells!!! Lol

Could your daughter take her own pictures and make a scrapbook for this year? Did the school district not tell you about fees? Seems like important information they should have told you about so you could plan ahead. 🙁

yoo its bankhaul ur pc checking rn

Hey there

If you qualify for free lunch, the Fees should be waived

Do not wash the eggs until you want to use them, the have a protective coating on them and they can stay on the counter for as long as you need them to. If you wash them make sure you refrigerate them.
