It's so refreshing to see someone on this platform eating actual fresh foods that are healthy. Most budget meals I find are all junk or out of a can. I can't wait to watch your other videos.
I didn’t yet watch the full video but chicken, meat and egg prices in 2021 and 2022 are rapidly increasing faster than what people now upload these grocery haul videos. 🤦🏻♀️SMH. Now, it’s 2023. Let’s hope this country of USA doesn’t become like Venezuela
Fried rice. Uses leftover cooked rice, grated carrot, sliced celery, onion, garlic, frozen peas, soy sauce and dried ginger for flavoring. You can add scrambled egg for protein, or leftover meat like chicken or pork. Also add any veggies you have in your freezer. Easy and cheap.
Just found your channel and have subscribed to the channel. I will be binge watching you other videos. Hopefully there is an update on this video which take the cost of living price rises in to consideration.
Well even though this is a few years after this was posted I'll still answer the 1st question 😊. If I had to feed 20 people a bean recipe like chili and if time allowed homemade dinner . Also if I don't have an ingredient I just make without
I love the tip about finding substitutes for specialty ingredients so you’re not wasting money on things you probably won’t use up before they go bad. That is genius! Thank you for sharing!! 😊
I can't tell you how many times I've gone shopping and come home only ro realize I already have some of the items I just bought! Lol. I could have bought something else. Just found your channel! Thanks!
Funny thing is when I went 90% vegetarian or 75% vegan, however you want to look at it, my shopping bills were at least halved. Yet my own vegan cottage pie/meatballs/chilli/lasagne/stuffed macaroni tastes pretty much the same as expensive option ready meals because I can afford the most tasty varieties of things like tomatoes or carrots.
'm a senior in San Diego. My partner and I spend about$1,000 a month on food including eating out 2x a week. That's a lot. I do not eat meat but I buy a little for my partner. I do not eat eggs or milk be he does. We eat a lot of beans and potatoes and lentils and salads and fruits, nuts seeds. I make nourishing soups with veggies and beans in my crockpot ,,,,,,,,if you like soups you can make a few in large amounts every so often and freeze what you don't eat in a day or two. that way you'll always have some soups on hand. In the old days, for most people, meals were simple: porridge for breakfast, soups for lunch, and a stew for dinner. Easy to plan your meals around a single dish, possibly supplementing it with a salad or vegetable side dish. Think of pasta with a topping, or rice covered with a sauce, or just plain soup and wholesome bread.

Yes! I love fried rice! Only recently nailed down how to make it, but it's a staple now.
I tried to watch but it was too much talking instead of getting to the point i wanted to see the meals or food
