If you had no butter or margarine you could use the mayo instead for the grilled cheese. It's very tasty.
I’ve heard that! I’ve never tried it, I definitely should have for this challenge!
Now i wish youtube had a wow icon. I really want more options than thumbs up or down.💕
Agree
That's how I grew up anyway. Mayo on the grilled cheese.
You could take a slice of bread and make croutons and sometimes I like to add rice to my tomato soup.
Save them fast food packets like soy sauce and ketchup. They come in handy when run out of them.
Just a reminder to those who may not have some go-to seasonings and sauces that the ramen dish as well as the brown rice could also be seasoned with the seasoning packets that come with the ramen. This is a great video for college students, too, who may be limited to cooking options such as just a microwave or a rice cooker.
I love tuna salad as a baked potato topping/filling, or if DT has canned small whole potatoes to lightly roast in the oven and smash, then top with the tuna salad mix. Also, saving those extra condiment pkgs from takeouts will help to stretch a limited budget 🫠
Great idea!!
I love the scissor technique, I do the same thing with other dishes!
Great Ideals for meals.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Your meals are impressive and healthy and inexpensive! I'm definitely subscribing! Thank you!
All about saving!!
Try Mama's brand from your local Asian store. I like it better. It's like 50 cents a pack
I will check it out
if you put the milk in a bit at a time and stir until smooth constantly you get the smoothest tomato soup ever
Could of got tuna cheaper at dollar general should be 50 cent depending on your state
You weren’t doing anything wrong brown rice takes FOREVER to cook. I know it’s supposed to be healthier for you. I never eat it. I stick to white rice. #SayYesToBadCarbs! That grilled cheese cream of tomato soup lunch looked like pure heaven, and yes you have to dunk. It’s actually a rule! It is! Trust me, I’m older than a lot of you. 😁
Your hashtag is cracking me up! Lol 😂
I mix half white rice and half brown rice. It pretty much tastes like just white rice but with a little extra nutrition. 😊❣️
Hi. I actually like the ramen noodle recipe and the rice with mixed vegetables dish. Thank you for sharing.❤
Thanks for watching! 🥰
You can make fried rice with a little bit of oil then add the soy. Can also add onion powder and garlic powder to flavor up the dinners too
I think you did great. You actually have more meals than 24 if you include the meals you could have made with the extra ramen. Another way to bulk up tomato soup if to make homemade croutons to put on top. (Sometimes the budget might not allow for cheese 😮). When I make tuna on a budget, I add some chopped up pickles or just pickle juice to mimic relish. Good video!
Great ideas! Thank you!
Or a tiny splash of vinegar in the tuna and mayo
I love dill pickles I hate the dill relish in a plastic squeeze bottle it tastes like man made chemicals to me. I always have to say man made because some idiot that wants to prove they are smart says the whole world is made of chemicals.
Retired and tight budget , I do online surveys and use the money I earn for at least 1 weeks of grocery’s a month , I also scan all free sample sites , when I walk my dog I look for Pennies etc , it sounds silly but every bit helps , I find Grocery Outlet pretty good prices , especially for things with only a week left til they expire, just plan meals around , eat right away , and I don’t have a car and it’s real close to my house .
Yummy meals and Inexpensive....Win,Win!😋😋
Thank you for helpful ideas! I love these different types of meals just for myself to have to take for work lunches!!
Thanks for watching!! ❤️
Can we more videos like this that includes breakfast, lunch and dinner for the week under $20
Dollar tree has rop sausage for 1.25
Great video for stretching the food budget. Next time toast your bread for tuna makes it much better.
You know, my mom always did that. I think it’s really good with lettuce and tomato too!
Awesomeness 😊
This videos was pretty interesting. New subbie here!
Thanks for watching!❤️❤️
I realized I have a crap ton of canned goods,...that'll make 4 to 6 extra meals for the money. Thanks ❤
You could make brown rice for breakfast topped with cinnamon, sugar, milk......and have that with a muffin each of 7 days......
Getting closer to 3k subscribers😁🥰🥰🥰🥰🎊🎊
Rinse the packet of chicken before adding and it will remove some of that flavor people don’t like
Thank you for sharing ❤😊
Thanks for watching!
A little late to the comments but brown rice I use equal parts rice and water plus just a bit extra water the 22 minutes on the pressure cooker natural release and it comes out perfect
Why does she keep saying 15. It is 16.25
Totally great meals 🎉
Thank you.
how did you get a 6 pack ramen or a full loaf of bread at DT? oh I know, you didnt....if you want this channel to thrive, be honest.
They have both of those there. It’s a 5 pack of ramen.
Alot suff you using you already have lot people don't have that stuff so don't see how you show emergency you not just us how make cheap food people can afford. Alor dollar is all people have around them .
They’re going to have some stuff though, specifically spices and oils. No one shops each week, and throws away the leftovers and buys new stuff the next week. At the very least, everyone should have vegetable oil and salt. Both are relatively inexpensive and no one should be using an entire container of either in a week. Unless they want to, you know, DIE, lol
really enjoy your videos 😊
Aw, thank you! Thanks so much for watching!
Brown rice is awesome. Worth the wait.
I love using my Instant Pot for lots of things, but it's great for rice and beans, also.
It really is!
I am super Annoyed of the music in the background it’s hard to listen to you and the music so at 2:04 I stop the video comment and left your channel
Okay thank you for the feedback, I will fix it.
Agreed. I had a hard time hearing you
STOP BUYING PROCESSED FOODS!!! START BUYING FRESH PRODUCE!!!!IS IT THAT HARD?????????????
At dollar tree?? Yes, that would be hard to do.
@@CookiesandBacon22 hard to do, 'coz ur mind is fixed on junk foods!
You are more than welcome to watch my grocery hauls that show exactly what I buy in a month.
@@CookiesandBacon22 yah! i know the grudge!!!change ur mentality!
