    One thing I do to stretch milk is by buying the whole milk and removing 1 1/2 cups and replace with water. It stretches the milk out. We drink 1% or skim, so this is no big change in taste for us. Replacing 1/2 quart of milk with 1/2 quart of water decreases the fat by half. My DT has block cheese that you can shred. It melts really well. There is a cornstarch replacement for eggs: 2 T + 3T water = one egg replacement. You could use a can of chicken for the ramen dish if you wanted to add protein. I'm not criticizing, just tossing out ideas! Fun easy meals, love it!

    One tbsp of mayo is a good substitute for one egg.

    • @alishawilliams4194
      @alishawilliams4194 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      But mayo is still made of egg. So mayo might be a quick on-hand substitute, but only if one didn't have any dietary restrictions like an allergic reaction to eggs.

    Try mayo for egg substitute. It is egg and oil, so it should work. You could use either of the sausage options on the pizza bagels.

    I’ve heard a little vinegar is a substitute for the egg. Also, sometimes my DT has the Tyson frozen chicken nuggets, 5 to a bag. I’d use two bags & cut each nugget into four pieces & add all to the ramen at the end or at serving time. Additionally, my preference only & not always available, I’d get a little bowl & add the soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, a tablespoon of honey, sesame oil & ketchup, if you had those on hand. Mix the sauce well & pour over the ramen. It brings it up a notch. 🍜

    I thought applesauce could substitute for an egg our dollar tree sells an 8 pack of eggs for $1.25 but i bought a 5 dozen box from walmart for $4.70. Canned chicken would have worked in your stirfry ours always has the canned chicken. Hope you have a great week.

    At my DT they carry the thin steak to make Philly Cheesesteak. Then I first had it I found it at Aldi for 4.99 but the last time I looked at DT it was on the shelf marked 4. So I’ll be getting if from DT along with the peppers and onions to make Cheesesteaks. I don’t make them with the cheese that’s supposed to go on them. I use the white sharp cheddar cheese from Aldi instead. I know this is a DT video.
    DT is the best place to buy the Tony’s seasoning because at Walmart or “Kroger” it’s way over 4 bucks. The last time I looked at Kroger it was way over 6.
    DT is improving their game with the amount of food coming into their stores. I’m thinking it’s because of the plus section as well as the quarter increase.

    So with brownies, when you use an egg substitute you have to add more fat. I always add some peanut butter and they come out perfect.
