You can also make your own stuffing by using pieces of bread, moistened with a little water, chopped onion and whatever spices you want. Put in baking dish, cover with foil and bake until it gets brown and crunchy on top
The average price of a small turkey in my area runs about $13 dollars, ground turkey is almost $6 lb on sale. Apparently, those who are making fun of your video, have never had to worry about feeding their family. I appreciate your effort. I don't have to pinch my pennies any longer but once relied on the food bank and family or friends to help feed me. My problem is my allergies and gluten intolerance, though. I had to learn how to cook more from scratch. To stretch our grocery budget, I stock up when I can when something is marked down or on sale. Tuesday is Senior Day at one store, you bet I ask for my discount. We eat a lot of beans and rice; deer meat; fish; and we have a container garden. I reinvent leftovers. We gift others with home processed pickles and salsa, fish that we catch and homemade goodies at Christmas. Our neighbors and friends bless us back. Last week, when a neighbor gifted us a turkey, I sent her home with a bag full of hot peppers and tomatoes fresh from my garden. We clean out our refrigerator for another neighbor's pigs and she saves her rabbit manure for our garden. She is single so I will cook for her often. I treat her like my daughter, sometimes it may only be just a frozen pizza, or a hot dog on sandwich bread, but she is always grateful for our fellowship and we are so blessed to call her our friend. When I was sick, one of my friends brought me some dried herbs she foraged to make tea. When it comes time to harvest my comfrey, horseradish, and ginger, she is welcome to come and get some for her garden. She said she will bring me some elderberry for mine. Other friends give us deer meat, pies, honey, rice, or jelly. We've just planted some turnips and will share the greens around New Years. They are always a hit! I bought a gazillion seeds years ago and they are still viable. I didn't realize how much I bought and have been giving cups of seeds away to those who want them, but I definitely got my money's worth! This is how we manage the cost of groceries.
I love this!!! Yes I think it may show that some people have never had to go hungry or worry when they may get a next meal. While those people are blessed to not have had that issue in life, not everyone has had that good experience, some compassion would be nice, no need to be ugly, right? It is so nice that you have such good and close friends! We too keep a small circle and we all barter often with garden goodies and meat from whichever hunting season is open and whatever sales we scored. We love to utilize the salvage grocery store also! My husband is also a mechanic and is able to trade his services for foods and needed things sometimes. Lastly, I might be a crazy coupon lady….. no shame in my coupon game!! 🥰 Thanks so much for sharing! I love to hear it!

A go to quick inexpensive dessert I’ve always liked to make is pumpkin pie pudding. It’s one packet of vanilla pudding (make according to directions) 1/4c pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice or just cinnamon works too. This is also a recipe I would make when I watched what I ate. So it can be made lower calorie and sugar if you get a low fat or sugar free pudding mix.
I have made the pudding and I have this dessert in the works for another video! Thank you! I am excited to give this a try! I have been on a no sugar journey since 4/1, not sure I grabbed a no sugar pudding but good to know for a healthy treat for myself!
@ you can even use a nut milk or coconut milk if you want to lower the calories even more. Or if someone has a dairy allergy. I’m new to your channel but look forward to looking around at some more of your videos!
I have to say of all of these kinds of videos I've watched this year. I think you have done the cheapest and the best one possible. I think it turned out absolutely great, especially if you're someone with very little money. But you did a fantastic job and good ideas.
What a great achievement for so little money! I think the only variation I would do is replacing the tomato with a piece of fruit to chop up and add to the jello
Homemade gravy: flour, water, onions, oil , salt , pepper 🎉 in pan add oil , let heat then add onions allow to cook slightly. Then add flour allow to brown, then add water, stir until mixed. Then salt and pepper. Turn stove down until mixture reduced🎉
It’s amazing what you were able to buy for $5. I’ve never had to pinch my pennies like that until recently so it’s good to know it can be done. Instead of meatloaf, I think I would have used meat for turkey burgers with gravy. Thanks for such a good video
wow! I love everything about this wonderful looking meal. I add a beef bouillon cube to my green beans and cook it down for a home canned taste. You are so inspiring!
If you need an inexpensive meal, this looks go. Full plates, full bellies. You could also use the leftover meatloaf for turkey meatloaf sandwiches the next day. I think that I would have opted for cranberry sauce or jelly instead of the jello. I am just not a fan of jello. This probably would have made me leave the tomato behind to keep it under $5. I probably would have added an extra dollar and gotten an extra stuffing mix. This makes a lot of food, and I would have been eating it for the rest of the week. I love leftovers. Thank you for this video. I will give it a try sometime after Thanksgiving. I batch cook for a week or two on a single day. Then meal prep and freeze. Instant homemade TV dinners, ready in an instant.
I would have bought a couple large potatoes and skipped the tomato. Also, not crazy about the Jello But the meal is a good cheap idea especially the turkey loaf. Very filling.
Very nice video. My daughter is bringing her 2 sons up to my house this Thanksgiving and I’m going to make this! Plus cranberry sauce and mashed potatoes. I’m a lazy cook. Thank you for your time. It all looks good !❤
I really like the way you put together a great meal, that feels like a holiday meal. I checked online my walmart prices and without the tomato (my local walmart doesn't ever have fresh produce) the total was $4.66 so I added on the list a 58 cents box of mac and cheese as well as $1.50 container of pumpkin shortbread cookies for a total of $6.74. I would like to see more budget holiday meals, it was amazing to see that prices over here are the same, normally these type of videos show prices way cheaper than where I live, I was pleasantly surprised to see it is possible for me to shop the same budget
The prices of these American groceries astounds me. As a Canadian I am jealous lol. We’d be very lucky if we got the pound of ground turkey for under $5.
This would blow through the $5 budget, but a variation could be a turkey casserole: 1 lb ground turkey, 1 can nacho cheese soup, 2 eggs, and 1 box Rice-a-Roni (the 6.8 oz size).
Greetings thanks for caring about those whom barely have the monetary resources to purchase a TG meal . If this were me I would have made turkey burgers with gravy and stuffing , tomato on the side
Cost of this in Canada, Great Value no-name, etc. would be between $10 and $15, so at least double and to be fair, by the time you go through checkout, taxes, etc. nearly triple.
I’m sorry to hear that. I chose to say the price pre tax because some states in the US don’t charge tax on groceries….. I do not live in those states lol darn!
Not a chance in Canada. The ground meat alone is 5 dollars. The rest of the ingredients on sale or at dollar store you could get for 5 dollars. So it's a 10 dollar meal in Canada. With the exchange that's 7.15 US.
You are not the first person to say that. It sure was just one can and one box. Thats what was in the budget and that’s what I used. It went far enough for 4 plates and filled us up! Give it a try!
Good job. Of course I had to comparison shop. Identical products came to $5.65 here, an 11½% increase. I assigned our tomato price to yours since I didn't hear it, 30¢. I'm surprised it wasn't much more.vWe do not pay tax on regular non prepared (hot) groceries. How much did you pay in tax? Manteca CA Re: gravy. I would not have put it in the meatloaf or on. Would have to have had it all to pour over the dressin'. Oh yum.
Right?! It’s not pretty but it eats good. I was too for a while, but when a budget is tight and there’s babies to feed a momma will give it a try. As long as their bellies get full and they are happy we will eat it! ( we mostly eat deer meat that we kill and process ourselves in my house, bringing in turkey when an Alpha gal allergy is joining dinner, or it’s Thanksgiving).
I love watching these videos, but it seems that the stuffing and green beans doubled in volume for the final part of the video, when everything is plated
We prefer frozen in our house, but when on a budget canned is cheaper and goes farther for us. Also the salt is so tasty lol maybe not good for the blood pressure but shhhh let’s not talk about that! It’s good for the taste buds!🤣
Yes, in the video I said I was using 1 1/2 cups of water for the gravy, I said it outloud and that’s what I did. Yes, one can of beans and one box of stuffing. That’s what is pictured, that’s what was filmed, that’s what stayed in budget. Make it yourself and see how much you get if you would like to question.
Yes it sure was. The point of the video is to spend $5. One can and one box was in that budget. That’s what’s in the video and that’s what I used. Make it yourself.
@alcox6377 Judging from your Facebook posts, Its safe to say you claim to be a man of God. How can such a man have a negative opinion of a video that could potentially help some people enjoy the holidays that may not have the funds to have a more traditional holiday meal. While Dani is trying to make the world a better place and offer an alternative option to people who may be struggling, you’re over here judging and acting like you’re better than everyone. A lot of people are having a hard time making ends meet these days and could benefit from having an option like this. You have no right to judge. Shame on you. At the end of the day, we all bleed red and we all end up in the same pine box. I’ll pray that you find your way, because your comment is absolutely atrocious. Have a good day, sir.
Really? And in what chapter of the Bible does it give the description of a Thanksgiving meal? Or, at least, you should go back and read the story about the feeding of the masses. Because you, sir, just spit in the face of the God you claim to serve.
@@F.A.F.O-c8h Then hit a pantry and get a turkey there, instead of this processed stuff. Concerning you creeping my facebook, which you shouldnt be not being on my friends list, well, creepers will be creeps. Im not perfect and refuse to try to be.
You can also make your own stuffing by using pieces of bread, moistened with a little water, chopped onion and whatever spices you want. Put in baking dish, cover with foil and bake until it gets brown and crunchy on top
One of the best $5 Thanksgiving dinners/meals I've watched so far 👌
Thank you!
The only thing I would do differently is pass on the dessert and get some instant potatoes instead.
Again a good idea, but that would put it over $5.00
I agree. Thanksgiving needs mashed potatoes 😉😸
Yes! I love mashed potatoes! Just wanted to include a sweet treat for anyone on a super tight budget! Thank you!
Agree with leaving off dessert. We have been avoiding sugar lately.
Yes
This is amazing! Thank you!
The leftover meatloaf would make a great sandwich for the next day!😊
I have friends that can't make lunch for $5,much less a whole, satisfying dinner. Nice job friend!

Maybe cranberry jello instead of cherry?

Great job👍
4 plates for $5? Nice. I'd swap mash potatoes for the green beans, though. Beautiful.
You did very well. I don't see a thing that could be improved on.

The plate dished up looked like more then one can of green beans and more stuffing then what you stored in the bowl.

Re: gravy. I would not have put it in the meatloaf or on. Would have to have had it all to pour over the dressin'. Oh yum.
Hi!! Our tomato was $0.21. After taxes we paid $5.27 for all of it!
Pretty impressive for $5
I've been scared to try that Walmart Festive ground turkey.
Right?! It’s not pretty but it eats good. I was too for a while, but when a budget is tight and there’s babies to feed a momma will give it a try.

Why not turkey gravy?
Turkey gravy is $0.67. Brown gravy is on sale for $0.32. We like brown gravy and its price stayed in the $5 budget.
Not so sure that’s really one can of beans or one box of stuffing. And that was a lot more than one cup of gravy.

It is what it is
Give it a try

Everything looks good I'm not a big fan of Jell-O
It feels the belly anyway
And tastes great too

Really? And in what chapter of the Bible does it give the description of a Thanksgiving meal? Or, at least, you should go back and read the story about the feeding of the masses. Because you, sir, just spit in the face of the God you claim to serve.
@@F.A.F.O-c8h Then hit a pantry and get a turkey there, instead of this processed stuff. Concerning you creeping my facebook, which you shouldnt be not being on my friends list, well, creepers will be creeps. Im not perfect and refuse to try to be.
This goes all against my beliefs in having a meal 🤮
Then you don’t have to eat it.
@@dayswithdanikyou tell them.
Some people will feel blessed to have this meal.
Then scroll on by cupcake! This WILL be used by people who cannot do any better.
That comment does not make you seem discriminating, it it shows your lack of empathy for people who are struggling financially.
That looked so dry. I don’t know if even the gravy could save it. Turkeys are so cheap right now. Buy a real one and roast it ffs
It wasn’t dry at all. We enjoyed it! Turkeys aren’t $5, nor is turkey with sides.
@@dayswithdanikAmen! A small turkey runs around $13 here.
