My daughter, who is away at college, called this morning to tell me you had a new video out. She and her roommates were headed to the grocery store and they make a LOT of your meals. As they are students on a budget, they were excited to see this today!

Wow! That is just awesome! Thank you so very much for sharing that with me. I sure do appreciate that. When my husband was still in college I did so many recipes like these because we really didn’t have any other choice🤷♀️ thank you so very much for sharing that !😀
nice
@@JuliaPacheco I love your content, I live in Utah as well so when I discovered your channel I knew it would be getting a great deal for cooking and new recipes with a budget in mind. I have to take care of myself and my mother on 250$ of food stamps and with your help, it makes living much better with your advice. I do request a video of what to buy in a month and what not for a solid month. Again thanks again for your videos they are helping more than you could possibly imagine.
That’s awesome! My son is on a budget at college so I’m going to tell him about these videos too. It was my first thought in fact.
Grocery list 😊:
Eggs
Grits
Ground sausage
Biscuits (7.5 oz)
Cream of chicken (2)
Veg medley (2)
Can of chicken
Pasta, 16 ounces (2)
Hunts Pasta sauce
Crushed tomatoes (28 oz.)
Diced tomatoes (14.5 ounces)

Thank you!
Very helpful! I just took a pic on my phone so I have my grocery list handy!
Do it!
I expect to see tribute videos of Julia's shopping soon

I’m so glad I found you. I’m living by myself and was tired of paying so much for microwave foods and fast food. You’re videos helped me getting into cooking for myself. I’m saving so much money and actually found a hobby because of these videos. Thank you so much for being awesome!!!
Wow! That is just awesome! I am so very glad that I could help you learn to cook better. That really does make me feel good. What a nice compliment! Glad to hear you have a new hobby too🙌🏼🙌🏼
Cooking for oneself in order to save money is a great goal, but so is cooking to get away from the processed stuff. I have expanded my comfort zone in a huge way because of the latter goal, and I am loving it, even with very little counter space. 😁
Oh my goodness, me too!!!
hows it going ?
I'm in the same boat. I'm single and now getting into home cooking. I'm also a vegetarian so the meatless meals are great. All I do is half most of the recipes since it's only me. Recipes are simple to understand and to make. I
You are doing the lord's work! Especially in these times having cheap and filling meals is so incredibly important.
Thank you so very much Kendra! That sure does mean a lot to me. I am so happy that I can help you so much! Thank you so very much for watching and for your kind words😉💜
Amen
Amen!
Great comment 🙏🏽❤️
No she isnt, shes not really cooking this with 22 dllrs
I am in my 50s and still have a few kids at home and I have to say I truly appreciate your videos. The step by step and the variety of ideas you bring each week. From crockpot meals, to premade meal prep breakfast ideas and all the in-between. Thank you so much for sharing like you do! ❤ much appreciated! God bless you and your young family 🙏
Time to kick those kids out of the nest! 😅.
Thank you so very much Christie! That really does mean the world to me. That is just such a wonderful compliment. I sure do appreciate the positive feedback it really helps😉💜
I feel the same way! I’m 50 and have been cooking since I was 10 and still learn a ton from Julia!
I love this channel too. I'm 45 from the Netherlands and I use this channel as inspiration when I cook. I do love to cook.❤❤❤

As a cooker and lover of grits I recommend adding the salt to the boiling water before adding the grits. It's hard to get grits salted correctly if you add it after cooking. Glad to see you using them!
Yes, that's right👍
Thank you so very much, Melissa! I sure do appreciate that tip for sure. I know so many of my viewers love grits, so I really do appreciate this comment. It helps me🙌🏼
Yes, like oatmeal, pasta or potatoes, it's not the same adding salt after cooking.
Yes! As an Alabama native we know our grits down here. Salt that water!!
I agree 100%.
Finally a low budget grocery haul and meal prep with lots of veggies and proteins!
Thank you so very much for that positive feedback. I really do appreciate that! I hope you enjoy some of these recipes😉🙌🏼
Lots of veggies?
I only see a green pepper and potato (that's only technically a veggie as it has about as much nutrition as pasta).
Onion is more of a seasoning (although probably more nutritious than the potato).
Tomato sauce is not a veggie either, not any more than ketchup or sweet relish are.
@@d-meth Frozen spinach, diced tomatoes, and the canned veggie medley.
@@elizabethmac1475 that's not lots of veggies even if it all went in one meal
@@d-methGeez you just won’t stop until you prove your point will you 😂
Another tip: some grocery stores (like Wegman’s) sell frozen mushrooms for cheap! If you don’t think you’ll use an entire carton of mushrooms fast enough because you’re only cooking for 1, frozen is the way to go. Taste just as good as fresh mushrooms. I add them (and frozen bell peppers) to ramen, chow mein, pizza, pasta, etc
I think frozen spinach is the best deal going! It takes a lot of fresh spinach cooked down or steamed, to create a bag. Fresh is wonderful for salads etc, but if you’re cooking with it, it’s a deal to get the frozen!
Love your videos! So glad i found you!
Absolutely! Frozen spinach is definitely a great way to go. Thank you so very much for subscribing, Sandra!💜💜
Food prices are out of control. I hope everyone has been able to stock up the best you can. Blessings to you Julia and your family and too everyone here.
I hope so too, Jade. Thank you so very much for watching😀
Gardening is free , food is free from God
@@nicoleymacaroni I live in a hotel currently as I'm homeless and would live in an apartment if I didn't.
Glad you can grow food for yourself. Not everyone can nor is it sustainable.
@@nicoleymacaroni yeah and some people don’t own land to garden on. Some people live in apartments. Disabled people can’t garden.
@@nicoleymacaroni it is not free, the seeds, dirt, fertilizer, water, gardening tools, gardening beds and omg the TIME and WORK is a lot. It is great but not a substitute
This actually makes me want to cook. I love the low budget purpose and the healthiness.
That’s awesome Dana! I’m so happy to hear that and have a wonderful rest of your week😀
Same and I don't like to cook or know how very much. These videos are great. Prices are so crazy and my senior citizen mom lives with me. Now I know how to fill her belly cheap and healthy.
For a man that is single and doesnt know how to grocery shop or cook you are a life saver lol. Thank you.
Well thank you so very much, Robert! I sure do appreciate that🙌🏼🙌🏼
As a college student with no clue how to cook and a tight budget, I am very thankful for your videos ❤️
Thank you so very much! That is a very nice compliment. It sure is hard during those years for sure! I’m so glad that this video could help. Thanks so much for watching!😀
I love all of the visual details you add in - the little plaques with inspiring sayings on them, the sweet cactus, the unique pots and pans and cutting boards, everything! Such a great reminder that a little bit of extra attention to one's environment makes a difference, and it's the care that counts, not the money spent!
Well thank you so very much! I really do appreciate that positive feedback. I love all those little plaques for sure! Thanks so very much again for being one of my supporters. I sure do appreciate that!🙌🏼
You made this southerner very happy!! That's a poor man's breakfast! It does big families wonders! I remember my grandma making it whenever the house got full, it unlocked so many memories, thank you🥺
I Love how happy and excited you were to share all these recipes. Your attitude was very infectious. You were also very knowledgeable about the ingredients and their hardiness.
Lots of appreciation for this video, you could tell you put a lot of effort into it including the editing.
Well thank you so very much! I really do appreciate your positive feedback and thank you so very much for your wonderful compliment too! I really do appreciate that so much. Have a great rest of your weekend and thank you so very much for your support🙌🏼🙌🏼
Your $20 went a long long way! Thanks for showing how it can be done! ❤️
Thanks so very much Alyssa😀
I REALLY want to try that chicken pot pie if I could just get my finicky, vegetable shy husband on board. 😭 I don't eat enough to make it just for me but it looks so good.
Edit: Julia I wanted to let you know that I made this tonight. (I halfed the recipe because I was using a half a pack of chicken I had in the freezer.) It was amazing and picky husband approved! He asked for seconds.
Thank you!!
Same on the vegetable shy man. Trying to budget for meals we can both eat since our pallets are on separate spectrums is hard.
@@ladyayla121try using an immersion blender to blend up veggies into soup or sauces
I appreciate a woman who seasons her food.😋🙏
These looked amazing. So hard to believe you made all that for $22. Love it!!! Be blessed.
here in Belgium we also have prices going up. I have picky eaters, meaby trying some of these recipes. I strech soup by adding more water and spices and replacing half of the ground meat in recipes for lentils. i'm looking forward to see the baby! ❤😊
Thank you so very much for Sharing that. I guess prices are going up all over the world. I sure do appreciate you watching all the way from Belgium😉💜
@@JuliaPacheco yes, it’s all over the world, this economical crisis. In Spain where my family lives too, and in Sweden where my best friend lives. These are sad times. Thank you for helping people.
I think Hunts is a very underrated spaghetti sauce! It’s better than some of the expensive brands in my opinion.
Yup that’s what I buy and I add some seasonings
Agree! I've used it for years!
Thank you so much Alana! And I am so glad that it’s so affordable right now or at least less expensive. Thank you so very much for your comment! Have a wonderful rest of your week😀
@@JuliaPacheco thank you! You have a wonderful week too 😊
Now I want to try the "Hunts" brand, I always gravitate to Prego, but the price point on this one sounds wonderful!
I just made scrambled eggs with water. They come out more fluffy & tender then with milk. I love grits & always have a box. Yummy simple recipes. Thanks Julia
You’re so very welcome! And yes! That water makes them extra fluffy. Milk makes them taste a little creamier. Thanks so much for watching and thanks so very much for being one of my supporters😉
Mushrooms are a meaty substitute in texture but they are not high in protein. In that whole package there’s about 6g.
That is less than 1 egg’s worth protein, divided among however many servings.
These are such awesome money saving meals. On my menu this week will be the pot pie, lentil soup, and grits casserole. Watching your video has really taught this Grand mom some new tricks. Thanks, and be blessed
Well that is just an awesome compliment for sure. Thank you so much and hope you enjoy these recipes!😀
Great idea for the grits & egg casserole. I'll be making it Easter morning for the singers & tech crew at my church. They have a sunrise service & then two more services later in the morning so they will be hungry in between services. Thanks.
That’s awesome, Lori! I sure hope they all enjoy it. It sure does go a long way that’s for sure. Thank you so very much for watching😀
Thanks, Julia. I wish there was a way to have these without unprocessed food or even healthier versions that might be low carb,whole carb, sugar free, low sugar, etc.
Gotta say all of your dishware is so PRETTY. This video is a literal godsend. I'm not super experienced with cooking since I grew up with mostly take out and fast food, so finding recipes that fit my very small skillet is difficult sometimes. I'm so excited to try some of these
I sure do hope that these recipes can help you! I was not a good cook at all! You can do it! Thank you so very much for your positive comment and I sure hope you have a wonderful rest of your week🙌🏼
@@JuliaPacheco I actually tried the chicken pot pie from this video and it was really good! Hope your week is great too
Such a perfect video for many who struggle with food insecurity and only a set amount of money on hand. Thank you for another wonderful video. ❤️
Thank you so very much, Willette😀
This is a good one! I know you have done these before but they’re even more important now. Thank you as always for making such great videos.
Thank you!❤
I was searching high and low for your crockpot mac and cheese and couldn't find it, looked up a few others..needless to say, it turned out not the best.😢
Thank you so very much! Yes, you are so right. Now more than ever we need to be budget conscious and figure out ways to watch our spending at the grocery store😉💜
Oh no! I am so very sorry. I’m not sure why it didn’t turn out very well🤷♀️ I sure hope you have had success with some of my other recipes though. Thank you so very much for watching and have a wonderful rest of your week😀
@@JuliaPacheco
I didn't find yours and used another one i found. I wasn't meaning your recipe didn't turn out well. ❤
Let me just say, the chicken pot pie was sooo good!! I doubled the recipe for my family, my sisters family and my parents for Sunday dinner today and everyone loved it and went back for seconds! We paired it with rice and a salad! So good and didn’t even cost a lot to feed 9 people!! Thank you so much!!❤
That is just awesome! Thank you so much for letting me know that. I sure do appreciate the positive feedback🙌🏼🙌🏼 so very happy that the recipe worked for you and your family was able to enjoy it💜💜
I'll be moving into my first apartment soon and I'm literally glued to your budget meals....this will be such a great help for me thank you so much!
Wow! Congratulations to you on your very first apartment. I get that! I had absolutely nothing when I moved into my very first apartment. I learned how to cook and be very very frugal. Thank you so much for watching and I sure hope you can use some of these recipes😀😀
Oh, dear! You could try using acetone to get yourself unstuck ("..."literally" glued 🙄), and then you could cook properly.
Grammar matters.
I love your budget videos!! I always learn something new. Just because you're being thrifty doesn't mean you're skimping on flavor. These videos are so helpful.
Thank you so very much Stacey for your positive feedback. I really do appreciate you watching and I’m so glad that these recipes sound good to you😀
Julia, you are a shopping GENIUS!!! Thank you so much for helping us THRIVE in these difficult times! GREAT examples of being creative while saving money AND still able to eat well! WELL DONE, LADY!!! WELL DONE!!! :)
Oh! Thank you so very much, Laura! I really do appreciate that positive feedback🙌🏼
I just made the soup recipe and oh my goodness!!!! Actually my new favorite soup and it’s so cheap and easy too! I added 1/2 box of pasta shells as well. Loved it!
I’m so thankful I found your channel. I’m on a really tight budget and with your videos I feel I can do this! I followed a video for this past week that was meals for the week for $10 and it was great. Oatmeal, breakfast tacos, pinto beans, fried rice, etc.
I am so very happy to hear that! Thank you so much for your positive feedback and I hope some of these meals help you with your meal planning😉💜💜
Very inspiring vedios love love thank you so much❤️❤️ watching from Portland Maine USA 🇺🇸 originally from Philippines 🇵🇭
I found and subscribed to your channel a year ago because of one of your extreme grocery budget videos when my husband had lost his job and we had a little baby. So glad I did!
I’ve tried many of your recipes since then🤍 but my husbands absolute favorite is the casserole that has the Doritos on top 😂
Oh, thank you so very much Jacqueline. I sure do appreciate that positive feedback. I am so very glad that I could help you in that situation I sure hope things are going better now🙏😀 thanks so very much for being one of my loyal subscribers I sure appreciate it!
Grocery costs are outrageous!! Cannot wait to try all these recipes. Thank you for sharing these amazing ideas.
Thank you so much Barbara. I sure hope you enjoy these recipes and much agreed, prices have skyrocketed🥴🥴
Fantastic video!! I’m constantly trying to teach my adult daughters how to cook on a budget and now I can show them this video as evidence ☺️ They don’t believe mom, so the verification is necessary. Thank you so much for posting these amazing recipes 🙌
Ha ha! Of course they don’t believe mom😂 thank you so very much for sharing with them and I hope they enjoy my videos🙌🏼
Its not that they dont believe you they are eighter lying or lazy or poorly educated
I have made the grits casserole multiple times. Never gets old. Now a staple in my meal rotation!
That’s awesome, Jessica!🙌🏼
That chicken pot pie looks so good!
Yessss it does!😋
I am so glad! Sure hope you enjoy it. Have a wonderful rest of your week and thank you for watching😀
That looks delicious! I love one-pot breakfasts. I do eggs, grits, and usually salmon or tuna just about every morning. Lots of proteins knock out the mid-day cravings and keep you full longer. And it's cheap.😉
Tip for the lentil soup! If you have it in your pantry, drizzle a little olive oil (or oil of choice) on top before digging in. Not only is it delicious, but a bit of healthy fat helps the body absorb the nutrients in veggies. All the other ingredients in the soup are very low in fat, so a little boost is helpful both for flavor and nutrition. :) I have some chili oil in my pantry that was very tasty on top, too!
That’s a wonderful tip! Thank you so very much for sharing that here and I sure do appreciate you watching too🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@JuliaPacheco Thank you for the recipes! So far everything I've tried has been great and super easy!
Thank you for being so creative and getting so many veggies in the budget. Love these ideas. Prices are outrageous right now, but these recipes look delicious. I have been wanting to learn some lentil recipes!
We love Lentils and have made a soup similar to this and it is so good. And for the vegetable pasta I have done that also and added zucchini and summer squash to it and definitely can’t do without the mushrooms perfect. Enjoyed this video very much.
Those are all great suggestions for that pasta recipe. Thank you so much for that. And now that we are getting closer to summer, those vegetables are going to be a lot less expensive and super easy to get! Thank you so much for sharing that🙌🏼
Thank you Julia for these delicious budget friendly recipes. Wow you made 20 dollars seem like a fortune. Can’t wait to try these comforting meals. Making my shopping 🛒 list today lol thank you sweetie 🥰😇 be well
Thank you so very much, Kathy! You’re always so kind😉💜
It is hard cooking for one now and I appreciate your wonderful recipes. ❤️ your entire video including the scriptures! I'll never get tired of those. You're a wonderful inspiration to me! Thanks, Julie.
Well thank you so very much, Elaine! You are so awesome every week and I sure do appreciate you and your loyal support here💜🙌🏼
Ms J. You have inspired me to cook. I have ADHD and did not like cooking. Thank You 🙏🏽
Same LOL!
Well thank you so very much, Jacqi😉🙌🏼 I sure do appreciate that positive feedback! I am so happy to hear that these videos make it seem easier! You’ve got this! Thank you so much for watching and I sure do appreciate your loyal support💜💜
Thank you for showing how delicious meals can still be economical! 😁 Yes to pasta, lentils and potatoes, three great staples that can go a long way. 😁
Thank you very much for the money saving tips on groceries, and for the delicious recipes. Your recipes are always easy, which I LOVE. And they’re always very affordable, especially these in particular. Have a great week, Julia! ☀️
Thank you so very much! I sure appreciate that😀
My husband and I are on a STRICT budget in 2024, and I had about 25 bucks left for groceries to get us through a week until payday. This is exactly what I needed! Making the grits casserole now 😊
I am really so happy to hear that my ideas could help. Thank you so much for sharing that positive feedback and I sure do hope that you and your husband do well with your budget this year🙌🏼
Luckily I am in a position where I don't need to budget my food like this but I still greatly enjoy and appreciate these videos. You are an incredibly cool and creative person, thank you for sharing your hard work with the world.
Well thank you so very much! I really do appreciate that positive comment for sure. That’s so very kind! Thanks so much for watching😀
Great recipes Julia. I'm so excited for you, your time is so close now. You look great and I hope you are getting some rest while you can and that your freezer is full. Stay well and safe. ❤
Thanks so much! You always are so kind and looking out for my well-being. Sure do appreciate you watching!😀
Great meal ideas! Sometimes you just need something quick and easy. I think I'm going to challenge myself to budget down my grocery trips! Thanks for the inspo :)
You’re absolutely right, Jessica! Thank you so much for watching😉💜
Great simple recipes! Thanks Julia!
A few changes I would make is forgo the can chicken, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste and cream of chicken and buy a roast chicken to shred and an additional can on the hunts sauce. That way you can make your own chicken broth and cream of chicken soup for the pot pie and you get the added spices from the hunts sauce for your pasta dish. And if you have any left over chicken and pasta, some soup with the broth. Wonderful ideas and a great use of your budget. I'm definitely going to try that Grits and eggs casserole.
Great video! So many new ideas. I love adding a few of these “extreme budget” recipes into our weekly meal plans to keep our grocery bill low. Blessings ❤️
I am so impressed with the great ideas and recipes you have! I look forward to shopping and creating these meals on a budget. Thank you!
Love love ur recipes. Easy and delicious!
Once again Julia you've out done yourself!!! Thanks for sharing awesome budget friendly meals ❤️
Love lentil soup. And yes to that cheesy grits casserole!
I love this kind of cooking! Easy, flavorful and you can do multiple recipes with those types of ingredients. I found a couple you did that are new to me and I'd like to try!
So helpful, especially the lentil potato soup! Trying to use up lentils in pantry. Thank you!
This is so great! Thank you for sharing!So many people need this right now!
Another great vlog ,great recipes Julia ,have a wonderful Sunday ❤
Thanks so very much for your support Natalija. You’re always so positive!😀

Your recipes made so many servings and looked really great. Love these challenge videos. Keep them coming!
I love seeing videos like this, especially now! Thanks for making the effort to come up with interesting meals at a super budget friendly price. :)
I’m loving these cheaper grocery/meal idea videos! Please do more. Even a $50 one would be good
Thank you so very much for the positive feedback! I sure do appreciate it🙌🏼
So excited to watch this video! Thank you for sharing Julia!❤️
Thank you so very much for your support! I sure hope you enjoy it. Thanks so much for watching🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@JuliaPacheco loved it! It’s so helpful during these crazy price increases!
Recipes look amazing! Can’t wait to try them all!! Thanks for a great video!
I loved it! Thanks for all of your content. It’s so helpful. 💗
Thank you for sharing this video! I live in a different country so some ingredients are a little difficult to find but I made the lentil soup from your video and my family loved it! Super easy, quick to make, delicious, and it's 4 year old approved! Lol 😂😁💜
This was a great video. I’ve never had grits but really want to try the recipe here. Love your dinner ideas! Everything looked delicious.
Thank you so very much! I sure hope you enjoy these recipes😀
I usually don't cook, But lately I've been trying to do more things and open up a little more towards the kitchen. These videos help me a lot, since, although they are simple, they teach me to combine flavors and understand, No expensive ingredients are needed to make something delicious and also fast.
That’s awesome! I am so very glad that you were feeling more comfortable in the kitchen. Thank you so very much for watching and have a wonderful rest of your week😀
I have 2 easy lunch options for that leftover pasta from the sausage pasta dish. I use leftover spaghetti or butter noodles or any pasta I make too much of. All you need is a tab of butter, a small drizzle of olive oil, splash of lemon juice (bottled), pepper, and some parmesan cheese- bonus if you have dried parsley. I already have these in the pantry or fridge. The other option is just adding Italian dressing and any extra veggies and cheese I have on hand for an easy cold pasta salad. From what you bought a little onion, and bell pepper is perfect.
This was a great video, Julia! I hope we see other budget challenges in the future. Also, I'd love to see your inventory of spices! Have a great week.
I would also enjoy a video on your spice inventory
These are awesome. I'm excited to make the lentil soup, that looks delicious! Thanks as always, Julia!
Me too, it looks so delicious.
And thank you so very much for watching! I sure do appreciate your positive feedback and I hope you enjoy that lentil soup🙌🏼
Great budget meals Julia! That chicken pot pie looks so good and l am definitely trying that breakfast casserole! Thank you and have a great week! 😊
Hi Julia, thanks for another great meal video. I will be trying each one of these recipes. I know my family will enjoy them!
These all look delicious, it's incredible what one can do with a small fund when they put their mind to it. 👏🏾🖤
Thank you so very much!
All these meals look great! I'm definitely doing the chicken pot pie . . . you can't make it any easier! Thanks for everything Julia . . . you're a big help!👍😋💛
Thank you so very much! Sure hope you enjoy it, Joe
Going to try! Thank you 🙏🏼
Incredible!! I cannot wait to try these recipes. Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️
I was thinking of doing a chicken and biscuits bubble-up casserole this week so it's interesting that you put it in here.
I have some of these ingredients already and will have to try these recipes - sounds good - and I 🤍grits 🌷🌷
That’s awesome! I have a lot of subscribers who love grits. So glad that you have a lot of these ingredients on hand already. I sure appreciate you watching and have a wonderful rest of your week!😀
Thank you for sharing your recipes with us. I shared this video with my husband and told him that I would like to try some of those recipes.
Im excited. I have thought about putting a recipe booklet together with simple recipes for when my youngest doin goes to college in couple of years.
hello Julia 💖 you are so amazing.you're so right about the higher prices,it can be stressful when you're on a budget.i truly appreciate all of your lower budget meals,all healthy and delicious 👍 you help to make shopping so much less stressed going in with these wonderful recipes ❤️ thank you so much for sharing your recipes ❤️ hv a wonderful day family 💐 good wishes and God's blessings to you all 😇💖😇💚💛💛💛😊
Thanks so very much Melissa! I sure do appreciate that positive comment for sure!! It’s a lot when people see the work that goes into these videos. Thanks so much for your support!🙌🏼
These are well thought out and interesting recipes for those of us trying to hold to a budget line. I especially like the use of lentils which are often overlooked.
Thank you so very much for that positive feedback. I am sure happy to hear that this video was so helpful to you!😀
Thank you as always for your yummy recipes ❤️
Omg! My husband and I are both military so it’s been difficult to find quick and healthy meals that aren’t super expensive or time consuming! Love these and will be using these recipes!! Thank you! And you know how to season girl yesss!!!
Hi Julia !!! Yessss grocery prices has went up. My local Walmart shelves are pretty much empty. Thank you so much for sharing another great video with us !!
Walmart is just helping playing GOV to get you scared. Stop supporting them and COSTCO TOO.
Thank you so much Patrice!😀
Shelves are empty in a big part due to covid backing up shipments of things to the stores tbh. My store got a shipment in of Christmas stuff last month (March) off the truck that went straight to clearance lol
@@madisonwillis9591 😂😂
Off topic but I love your pots and pans! They’re so cute
Ha ha! Thank you so very much. My pots and pans are on my Amazon store. If you scroll down in my description box you will find the link to that there. Thanks so much for watching!😀
WOW you are so creative!! I love watching your videos, thank you so much for helping me feed my family!
I've been binge watching her videos and shouldn't have trouble thinking of what to make for dinner any time soon.
I have to say though, if I ever here someone say, "...of some..." again it will be too soon. It was a refreshing change from the, "go ahead and..." most TH-cam cooks repeat adnausium.
Well thank you so very much for binge watching, Tara😂 I sure do appreciate that and hope you found some recipes that work for you and your family. Thanks so much again for watching😀
@Julia Pacheco it would be a massive understatement to say I found "some recipes." There's so many I want to try; I could almost make a new one every day for a year and not run out.
OMG! I finally had the occasion to use a semicolon. I'm well into my fifties, and that was seriously my very first.
