These ideas can feed smaller families for a lot longer. I hope this video helps, and helps give ideas. I love y'all so much! I hope I did this right lol REMEMBER keeping lunches simple, helps stretch that dollar!
Love, Brooke

Girl you just helped me out big time as I have a 10 year old son that's type 1 diabetic and we've been looking for some low carbs meals he will actually eat. I can't thank u enough!
Yay!! You’re welcome!!
@@SouthernFrugalMomma Kudos to you. With diabetes, low carb is a matter of life and death.
@@renaebettenhausen3611Yes it is. Made me appreciate this video even more ❤
A neat little snack with zero carbs is fried mozzarella cheese! I put about 2-3 tablespoons in a nonstick skillet, med heat, fry till begins to brown good, i flip the edges in toward the center on 2 sides, then brown as desired. Cool and serve. Stop cooking at any stage of crispy you choose. If soft, you have a nice cheese flavor, but if you cook crispy crunchy, it’s more like a chip.
And you can use this same cooking principle to make a mozzarella crust pizza. Cover skillet base and Cook mozzarella till brown, add toppings as desired. I have made many with various toppings! Yummy and filling!
Definitely, it's hard enough as an adult with diabetes to eat well. It's hard for kiddos, you're an amazing Mama!
Idk about folks saying you're starving your family, but I love the fact that your boys are unconsciously learning what healthy portions look like.
Great job
As a type 2 Diabetic, on a health wellness and weight loss journey, I've managed to bring my blood sugar level and A1c into a normal range and lose 50-ish pounds in 4.5 months. NO crash dieting and no starving. Just eating more sensible, making better lower glycemic impact food choices, while increasing protein, non starchy veggie, and fiber intake.
These meals look super interesting, especially the hibachi 'fried rice'!
I'm a type 2 Diabetic also. I don't follow any particular diet, I just do similar to you. My hope is to totally reverse my Diabetes or at least keep it controlled. I want to do it naturally and be off the meds and insulin. Better days and better health to us all.

I admire yr courage thanks for sharing
Read Jason Fung. He addresses diabetes and even has reversed type two diabetes.
I would have no issue hiring you as a culinary professor!!! Brooke, you stun me with your ability to adapt to any situation, recipe, ingredient, or finance level!!! Bravo!!!
I totally agree with your comment.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yes, honestly if she could have shown us how to cook for diabetes over the stuffy nutritionist (that rolled her eyes about budget questions) we had...game changer!!
I agree❤
I love how she asked Ryder if he is full and he said yeah, and he looks at her like of course I am. 😂 I can't believe people think these kids aren't fed enough. She's a great momma ❤
People forget that food is supposed to be used for health and to keep us alive.. it's not for enjoyment.. I am guilty of overeating especially when it's really love.. but, that's my choice..
All the kids look healthy to me. I don’t understand why people are saying things like that.
loop@@kayceeess5474
Nowadays some people are lucky to have 3 meals a day. And snacks are good too if you can do it. Apple slices with peanut butter.. ½ banana sandwiches.celerly and peanut butter.. in other words..PEANUT BUTTER
Brooke don't worry you feed your family well. ❤
Of course we all need a cookbook written by you..just saying and yes I would pay $20-25.
Great idea!
Please and Thank you!
Yes, me three!!❣️❣️
💯 yes please
Me too, how about brooke
You are freaking amazing. Your ability to look at an ingredient and make a meal is incredible. You also lost weight in your face, wonderful, but I could tell before you told us you had lost weight. You’re great and never let a hater take you down. I can’t wait to see your videos every, every day. Thank you so much. We can tell you put your heart into everything you do. You go, girl.
My favorite part is the last meal, where you take everything you have left and just make a bunch of things! I feel like I waste so much food, because I don’t have enough at the end, so this was a great reminder that we can all have something different to use up our food! So thank you!
I just wanted to say I love your personality and you seem to have such a lovely family. I’m a mom of a 9 year old son and we don’t have a lot. I just find it so endearing that you put together these videos to help other people. I hope your channel grows and grows!
I love this woman SOOOO MUCH! She is the SWEETEST & I just love how authentic & REAListic she is, in this increasingly fake world.
Thank you SOO much & your family for just being who y'all are. It's warm & comforting.
I love how supportive your hubby and kids are
PEOPLE!😂😂😂You go girl! Do what is right for YOUR family and do not apologize for it. People tend to forget they 1. Do not see the whole picture and 2. Every situation is different even if it may look the same on the surface. In one example prices and stores are different everywhere around this country. You give ideas, great ideas! Some of which I would eat and some I wont, but it inspires creativity and out of the box thinking for ingredients I do like, so is all VALUABLE. It is our responsibility to do our own research to make things work for our own families given the resources available to us in our geographical locations and our budgets. My Lord, you make me smile during this tough time. Eternal thanks and appreciation. You are an absolutely beautiful individual.
PSA... These videos are a CHALLENGE.. A.K.A a BLESSING! 🙌 They are meant for people who hit hard times, and have enough on theirs minds and may be lacking creativity on a budget. They can key in what they are looking for and These videos will pop up and give them a plethora of ideas to get them through. Way to go again Brooke, you are so creative. And thank you for doing these challenges so others don't have to when they are already being challenged. ❤❤
I just adore how much your hubby loves your cooking so sweet!
The reason why you are so popular is that you show real life, warts and all❤️❤️❤️ and in real life, things won't turn out or look pretty, and spills are real life! God Bless you and your family ❤️❤️❤️
PLEASE make my day-on one of your videos will y’all act like you pass out when you try the food? It is one of my favorite parts of your videos😂❤️I think it would be SO cute!
Keep being awesome, we adore your family!
😂
I love when little bug passes out when he tries your food soooo cute and funny
Yes, he's adorable!!!!! 💗 All 3 kids seem well raised. Kudos, pa and ma!
I love this !!! Please do more of the low carb meals.
yes, please!
Anyone who thinks you do not feed your kids enough need to relax. Brooke your doing great and you're real. We love you and this video is great. So many want low carb so TY. Be blessed always! xoxo
Those boys look plenty healthy to me!
Well some people are over feeding their kiddos so maybe it's some insecurities they have about that. These boys seem plenty healthy 🙂
And, as you said, you don't want to purposely overfeed them! And another community member pointed out that your boys are growing up with correct portion size from the get go. Way to go, Miss Brooke❣️
My son has autism and was very picky. I plain couldn't afford ($ AND energy) to make him a separate meal. As soon as he was old enough to make a bowl of cereal or pb&j that's what he had if he didn't like what I made for supper. Now at 14 he's eating the majority of what I make. I think it's worth it to stay strong and teach kids to cook, many will come around 💗💗
"That's 19.2 grams of awesome, then." Love that! And the We the People shirt is SPOT ON!
Your boys are adorable, especially the "fainter".
Your meals may actually be lower in carbs than listed if you calculate net carbs. Net carbs are calculated by subtracting total grams of fiber (carbs than cannot be digested) from the total carb count listed on the package. Low carb tortillas and vegetables tend to have a good amount of fiber.
That's SOO true! I didn't even think of that! Thank you!❤
I dropped 21 pounds in 6 months but due to life stresses and depression gained some of it back. I am trying to return to my healthier eating habits again. Your ideas will really help me cut back on carbs, increase veggies and keep protein in check while reducing sugary treats.
I think, when folks say there is not enough protein in a meal they are missing the fact that in this recipe alone there are eggs and chicken for your protein sources. And in other meals, cheese and beans also add to the protein count. We are not to be eating our daily amt of protein in one meal but throughout the day including snacks, so perhaps folks can use a little common sense before criticizing.
Brooke you do a great job.
I find when I eat low carb, I don't need as much food. I think carbs make me crave more food. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE carbs!! They must love me too because they seem to stick to me like glue!! 😉
Exactly!
You're actually correct! I found the same results!
Carbs do you eat more and crave more carbs
Brooke you nailed it yet again. Fun ideas and as a diabetic who sees a dietician regularly I can say the total meal carb amounts are on point for a diabetic low carb diet! Thank you
Yay!! I was so worried I didn’t do it right!
Brooke with the research you do you always make it
If you aren't able to you say you can't. ❤❤
Brooke! Idea for the tomato basil wraps! Make the bowls, use either italian sausage or burger with italian seasonings, roast some cherry tomatoes with garlic, throw in some romaine lettuce, mozz and parm, top with a balsamic reduction! Boom! Delicious italian bowls!!!
Edit: for some reason in my head I was thinking muffin tin size for the tortilla bowls. I should have specified! Sorry everyone!!
Or stuff them with mozzarella for pizza wraps or something
That sounds really good!
Delicious! And basil 🤤
Great idea!! I was wondering how they could be used up!!
I think the size was a concern to make as a bowl... but it couldn't certainly be used as a pizza base, which I guess are just plates instead of bowls. 😂
I was so excited when I saw the thumbnail for this. I am doing low carb to lose weight for health reasons. High carb just puts the weight on me. I love your channel but can’t eat a lot of what you make but I just love you and your family. I would love to see more low carb meals on a budget and I see quite a few comments from others that would like too also. I rarely comment but watch you every day. Hoping you can do more low carb meals. And yes higher protein definitely keeps you fuller longer. Blessings to you and your family.
Hi Brooke ,
I am following this food list I'm at Walmart now picking up my list inside the store as I am watching you video and definitely going to be fixing these meals . Thank you for all your hard work putting this together. 😊
Good luck Wanda! I loved your comment that you are inspired to make these recipes, they looked great!❤
At my Walmart, I always have the option online and then in person when I get there to pick up my order, to accept or reject any substitutions. They are also excellent about refunding money for something I don’t get or something I don’t like/want. My Walmart is super efficient, friendly, and rarely makes a mistake on my order. I love their grocery pickup service! Once in a while I have a problem, but it is rare. Being 71 years old with arthritis in both knees, this service is priceless to me. At first, when they would make a mistake on my order, I would get angry and be annoyed, but I just need the service so much that I try to give them a little slack 7:14 . I know some stores are worse than others, and maybe yours is still new, or still working out the bugs. Mine was at first I think. Anyway, I guess I just wanted to tell you I hope your experience gets better, I think it will. And it is a free service!
Love your channel, your family is awesome! Your boys are adorable!
Tell Dusty I said there’s nothing wrong with a sweaty working man. Real men sweat. 😂 😂😂 Great meals Brooke.
I had bariatric surgery about 9 years ago. Getting my protein in daily is a struggle. Carbs are easy and digest into sugar quickly for me, too. I'm a type 2 diabetic and diet controlled because my A1C numbers are good.
Just finding tasty meals that are affordable and meet protein requirements leaves me seeking help with ideas.
Brooke, I'm grateful for this video!!!!
This is amazing Brooke ! Hey I think you could use 3 cans of chicken and 3 eggs and make chicken Pattie’s to make chicken sandwiches Brooke ! I’m definitely gonna try it cause I love chicken sandwiches with lettuce and tomatoes and pickles !! Thsnks si much for low carb meal recipes Brooke ! I think a once a month low carb meal plan would be greatly appreciated , if it’s something you’ve gotten good responses about!! God bless ❤️🙏🙋🏻🌈🌈
I love your honesty. People judge others so easily. Just like me, you know what your family needs and wants to prevent waste and to keep our budgets in check.Ask them if they have a back-up pantry plan? Most of them do not. Thanks for all your hard work. All your meals on this $50 challenge are healthy!
Love this, and girl... you do not have to explain yourself or your choices to anyone. This is a blessing and they can either watch it and like it, or look for something else. There are PLENTY of choices on TH-cam. If they leave negative comments, shame on them. Thank you for doing this.
This was a big help. My youngest daughter and I are diebetic and could use ideas. I love the "people!" Just like my house Thank you❤️
Morning, everything looked yummy...I luv the little one when he is fainting 😉. And then of course we have wild hair child 😜 luv it! I luv all of u,keep it coming. Greetings from Johnson City, Tennessee 💖
Love Love Love this video! My girls and I have been trying to eat low carb high protein and these ideas are amazing! Thanks so much for these ideas and YES! Do more of these meals please!
I have felt so good this week. I told Dusty I’m gonna adjust a lot of things I make to low carb just because I like the way it makes me feel.
Low carb or not, that hibachi chicken meal looked SO good!! Once I gave him meatless meatballs, he thought they were the BEST (not homemade) meatballs ever. I've still never told, hehe.
🤣
😂 I’ve done that before. I’ll never tell! Lol Dusty asked me 3 times off camera, you sure that’s not rice? 😂 nooo!! I swear!
@@SouthernFrugalMomma I loved how surprised he was it was really rice. Your seasoning & skill worked really well!!
Love it! And congrats on the 6 pound loss even tho you weren't trying to loose it. Awesome video!!! 💖👍
Thank you for this video. My husband and I need to eat healthier. But on a tight budget, it seems so difficult. This video was very helpful.
Excited to try these..My Momma always used to say a double yoke meant extra love to your meal that day 😉
I love how Dusty didn't notice the difference between the cauliflower rice and regular rice. I know you aren't doing this for a lifestyle, but if you want to make it like that more often, you can boil or steam cauliflower and put it through a ricer. Cauliflower also makes a really good "mashed potatoes" pizza crusts, etc. Believe me, I was definitely thinking that mashed cauliflower wouldn't be good, but it is! lol
I love the mashed cauliflower more than potatoes but don’t tell my family 😂
I grate my cauliflower before cooking does precooking it make it easier
Love your sweet family…. My husband has started ‘passing out’ when I fix some of his favorites. We love you guys ❤️❤️❤️ Keep up there good work!!!
You guys are the cutest! I love those veggie tots! Gonna try the wraps! Thanks for the low carb suggestions! ❤️😘 Your boys are so cute! I raised two boys myself. They are 37 and 40 and they love to cook healthy too. ❤️
That chicken fried rice looks amazing. I have a can of chicken I think I will use like that tomorrow, with regular rice. And the youngest wanting chicken nuggets is just REAL LIFE.
I love your ideas. I start to feel sorry for myself if I can't get to the store because of budgets. Then I watch your videos and realize I have similar items and have no. need to even go to the store.
I'm going to try that hibachi recipe on my next homemade takeout night. White and brown rice tend to spike my blood sugar.
It was soooo good!
Obviously much effort went into this video. Thank you, Brooke.
Brooke I just love watching you and your family. You can definitely see you are a Kingdom family who puts God First. I love all you hearts.
When we had the tomato wrap I used crispy chicken with sauce my kids think they taste like parmesan chicken
You are awesome for jumping in to address the Facebook comment and try something new. And yes the higher protein and lower carb meals are good for weight loss, energy etc. I always wake up looking forward to your videos. ❤❤❤❤
Hands down my favorite video!! Eating low carb can be done easily and yes the protein helps keep you full! It’s also fun to experiment with all the different ways to make “mock” foods! Keep doing these videos cause it keeps me inspired and you actually gave me a couple of new ideas😃
It can be done so easily. I love how she shows that in this video. I feel like too many others complicate it so much it scares people away. Or like in the original comment, make people feel like they can't afford it. Sometimes a simple meat and veggies on the side meal is all it takes to get all of the needed macros and fill bellies.
This is nearly 2 weeks of meals for this person, that's amazing! I'm sure they could add 8 more meals for about $5 to round out the 2 weeks.
Brooke, I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in July 2021. I have changed everything about my eating and am down almost 200 pounds (yes, 200, it is not a typo). The combination of added fiber and protein are what keeps you full longer. I am impressed with the meals you came up and will be trying them out (minus the ground turkey because I don't like it, will substitute 93% lean ground beef instead). You are a blessing, and so is your lovely family! One question I do have, was that straight carbs or net carbs? My carb restriction is 30 per meal and 20 per snack. Thank you so much for sharing! You did exceptionally well! God bless all!
Congratulations on your weight loss! That’s phenomenal. I’m on the same journey as you, with about the same amount of weight to lose, your comment is so inspiring. I was dx’d in November 2022, & I’m down just shy of 50 lbs now. I have some health issues that complicate the weight loss (I’m on high dose steroids), but as long as the scale goes down instead of up, I’m a happy camper!
I also follow the 30/15 rule. It gets tough, especially as I have to eat gluten free, but I feel incredible when I’m strict with it.
Dusty’s reaction ❤-high protein and low carb is very beneficial - hubby has eaten that way for years - initially losing 50 pounds in a year- his doctor was very pleased- so close to 30000 subs- yay
Hubby and I eat low carb sometimes now, but less often due to health changes for him. I still need more of a low carb lifestyle, but it gets tricky cooking food 2 ways. Brooke, thank you for the ideas and ALL you do!!
I am exactly same way
The canned chicken is a staple in my house. My youngest daughter loves it when i add dill relish, and a little bit of ranch! She eats it right out of the bowl lol. It is a favorite of hers! I also use it for wraps if I want to have an easy meal option!
Love all these meals!
Look atyou, sportin' that cute, high pony tail hat and darling earrings!👍😃👍So wonderful that you responded to that request on FB for assistance with meals that are budget-friendly and meet the nutritional needs of that family. Bonus = your family seems to have also enjoyed the meals! Great going, Brooke!
I am definitely going to make these recipes. I think I could eat hibachi all week! Thank you
Protein is satiating and levels out the blood sugar. A high protein 1st meal of the day sets me up for a day of less snacking or no snacking. A carb heavy breakfast means I will be sluggish and hungry every couple of hours.
I'm new to having to cook low carb. It's truly been a struggle. Thank you so much for the great ideas.
I had RNY 18 years ago. Yes I need more protein and less carbs. I do it by not making casseroles with the carbs mixed in. Ex stir fry, spaghetti, tacos I put as much meat mix as I need. I also eat the carb balance tortillas and make a small pan of enchiladas for myself if I have the energy. Store bought soups have so many carbs and very little protein, so I can my own soup. For the meat in those I use meat from rotisserie chicken or cooked chicken leg quarters, pork butt on sale, venison, or hamburger on sale. We also buy whole hogs and half beef from farmers too. You can do it!
I like that you show the mess up on the chicken nuggets. You just rolled with it and it was still delicious. You are my favorite u tuber
Those were still tasty even if they were a blob 😂 Thank you so much! That makes my heart feel so full!
All these low carb ideas looked good. The boys are so sweet Brooke.
Honest boys! I know they are rice lovers🎉
Thank you Brooke i have to eat low carb by default because i have to be gluten free which means no bread, no tortillas, pasta and oatmeal is out for me due to a mickle allergy but those cheese tacos you made for Kallen looked yummy. I eat high protein as well so this is very helpful.
I have some of the plastic bowls you used for the taco salads and those bowls are huge whoever keeps saying your portions are small are wrong. Beside your kids look very healthy I think you're a great cook and a great mama keep up the good work 💕
How wonderfull of you to take so much time out to do this for your viewers, and it seems to have done you all good WELL DONE AS PER USUAL! X🇬🇧👍😍👍🇬🇧
You did good! Hubby and I are keto and we feel sooo much better. We usually are soo full we eat about 1-2 meals a day, which helps the grocery budget, as does less snacking.
It really does change the way you feel, how you sleep, and joint pain.
I still love and watch all your videos! You and your little family are adorable. Keep up the good work, and those positive vibes, sister!
I would love to see more low carb meal ideas. This was awesome.
Thank you so much for doing the low carb meals. I am a type 2 diabetic and have to watch my carbs, you gave wonderful recipes for me to try. I hope to see more in the future.
Brooke I loved this video!!! I'm the queen of grabbing something carby for a quick fix then being hungry 2 hours later. I know protein is the answer but I get lazy. I appreciate all the work that you put into this. Very helpful! ❤️
Your family is blessed to have you. Well done. God Bless you and yours.
❤thank you for making content like this. We are a blended family of some who can not eat breads to needing large amounts of protein. I appreciate you!
At 36:00, I swear this is what I have in my fridge and pantry rn. Making the chicken in the waffel iron was so genius and it tasted good! I really, really appreciated this video bc I have to monitor my carbs and I am on a tight budget. This is truly a struggle each day, especially with the rising cost of groceries this year. You rock girl.
I realize I spelled "waffle" wrong...lol I was just so excited! 😊
Ha! I have that black and white blanket! It's so comfy! You are so creative! I have the hardest time with meal planning because we have three people with VERY different tastes. One is chronically sick, and nothing really sounds good to him. :( But you inspire me EVERY video! And I think it is awesome you took on low-carb! Great job!
It is fun being able to watch your boys grow. And see how their personality change.
The meals looked delicious! I’m going to make some of these. I need to watch my carbs.
This was so thoughtful for you make a video for people who have this dietary lifestyle!
I’ve been keto for years and it can get boring and very expensive. Thank you 🙏 so much for this video. You have given me so many new ideas! Yum!!! 🎉🎉🎉Please make more low carb vids! ❤❤❤
Expensive for sure...Especially those 'keto friendly' labeled foods. That's awesome you've stuck to it so long. Very encouraging!!
@@MJ-gj6mj Mission low carb and zero carb tortillas save me. Nature’s Valley makes inexpensive delicious keto bread. I can’t live without bread! 🤤
@@kkelly4360 I'll have to check out both of those brands! Feel the same about bread 🤭
Brooke! Thank you!!!! Thank you!!!! I’m a Type 1 diabetic and have to count all my carbs to base my insulin on. This was great! I’m always looking for ideas on a budget. I am to stick to 45 carbs per meal, per the dietitian. So I think you were right on point. Some of these ideas I had not heard of. So thank you!!!
Yay!!! I’m so happy to hear this can help you! And that I did it right 😂 I was so worried
I was excited for this video I am considering lowering my carbs just to be healthier and lose some weight. This let me know it's doable on a budget
Great video! Too many refined carbohydrates can increase your hunger, even though they are often cheaper foods. I personally am gluten-intolerant and only figured this out last year. Once I switched to gluten-free and replaced with different grains I lost a few pounds too. I could still stand to lose more, but I did the change for health and not weight loss
Every time you make the Judy Blume reference I laugh! 😅
I think it is the extra protein that is keeping you full! I've been increasing my protein lately, and I've noticed that I'm eating less and less often than I had been. For me at least, the increase in protein has kept me full, and fuller longer.
Well the haters can't say that you didn't have veggies. 😂 Good video. Everything looked good. Thanks for doing this.
😂
You did a great job! I’ve had to eat the upper range of a low carb diet for awhile. Medical issues. You’ve got some good ideas here. I can’t eat grains and haven’t tried riced cauliflower. That sure looked good!And of course you know how much your family eats. Those who feel the need to complain need to make their own videos. Thanks.
Thank you Brooke for doing this!! My son (Kylen's biggest fan lol) is type 1 diabetic, so I'm always looking for way to cut carbs. His target is 60 grams per meal so he's not on a "low carb diet" but a lot of recipes are just not doable for us. Thanks again for all you and your sweet family do and share with us! You are truly a blessing to so many!!
60 grams is still a tough target for carbs. A few family members have been told to aim for 45 and that is so difficult sometimes. Eating lower carbs will surely help your son out and he's so lucky to have you care enough to make those meals. ❤
I love when your little guy faints he's sooo cute
The chicken nuggets, I haven't seen before. Think I'll be trying that out and the cheese taco shell 😂
As a type 1 diabetic I’m always looking for new low carb recipes. These looked delicious and tomorrow I’m going to make the stir fried dish. Looking forward to your next video in this series. Thank you.
Your awesome! I’ve been watching for awhile but we do “try” for low carb/keto…… love the ideas, hope for more, love your channel!
Great ideas for a low carb diet Brooke. U made it look super easy. I'm afraid I'd miss my taters,, cornbread, biscuits and gravy! Lol That would be hardest for me. Many of us are on a restrictive diet and u showed it could be done on a budget and taste delicious. God bless y'all and the TH-cam fam.
Taters are my weakness 😂 I’d have to sneak one in here and there.
You can still eat potatoes (1/2 cup serving size) and be under in a carb restricted diet! It is about progress not perfection!
I'm type 1 diabetic and I could definitely do these meals. They look great
Thank you for these ideas! The hibachi dinner looked so delicious. The thought you put in your videos is wonderful. You can feed your family in times of low cash, you can eat low carb without breaking the bank, you can eat food you remember from your childhood without going broke. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Please, please, please make more low carb videos! You did a fantastic job! Thank you!
Thank you so much, my daughter is type 2 diabetic, my hubby and I usually eat a normal diet except I had gastric bypass in 2008 and I eat smaller portions. But since her diagnosis I have searched for what I could fix for her but not have to cook two separate meals. Your meals have given me great ideas on how to make a base meal and how to tweek it for her and for us. Plus I can use leftovers to meal prep lunches for her that will be easy for her to reheat. Bless you for everything! And many thanks from one Tennessee girl to another, you know we didn't grow up with mamas and grandmas making low carb\low sugar meals.
Really like that you do the right portion sizes. I have cut back my over cooking portions and less waste & food stretches.
Ohhhh I just love you lol so many folks say they aren’t big enough. Thank you!
I love how you keep it real, Brooke! It’s just me now that my kids are grown ups but it’s real food I can eat not some weird stuff.
