I lost my job in October and have been making my way through your budget videos. What impresses me the most about you and your efforts is your humbleness. You’re just regular folk like us making it through the day to day. Thanks for sharing all these great tips!
Hope you're doing alright!! 💕
I love this channel too!
@@jonihaworth7016 Thank you, I'm managing not too badly :)
Awh, thank you for sharing and for watching!
I'm sorry songbird. I also lost my job recently. Worked every day through covid without missing a day. Doesn't seem fair but I have faith that God will send me to the right place
@@mandyzepeda5447 Faith in Christ is helping me too. I’m praying that anyone effected by this all makes it through!
I know you say you are super busy. I just wanna say you're doing a great job. Don't be hard on yourself. You change people's lives. Whether you know it or not. I am disabled, I can't work. You are one of the few faces I see every day. You give me inspiration to keep going!! Thank you!!
Thanks so much!! I appreciate you watching and sharing.
Abby, I loved it. And, I'd rather you show those dirty dishes than hide them. There's nothing wrong with being real. I respect that and it's nice to know I'm not the only one with a mess sometimes.
Thanks Debra! Dirty dishes are part of the routine :)
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 As a homeschooling Mom, I'm never done with dishes. Ugh! How is the course going?
my fav way to enjoy Brussel sprouts is to cut it the same way you do, and to bake it with oil in the oven with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. After baking, toss with butter and drizzle balsamic reduction on top! I loveee it
Abby, you are so busy with all your projects! Please don't burn yourself out . Don't forget a timeout for you.
That's a great reminder. Thanks John!
All the meals look scrumptious..I'm going to start with Mississippi pot roast.
Your awesome!!!
It's really good! Hope you enjoy :)
Fresh brussels sprouts are the only way to go. You are right, the frozen ones are mushy. I love them. They are also very delicious raw and shaved onto a salad. I love it with dried cranberries, butter lettuce, walnuts, the shaved sprouts and blue cheese dressing.
I'll have to try them on a salad - sounds delish!
I just got diagnosed with cancer yesterday afternoon. I would love if you would make a budget friendly freezer meal video. I want to make up a bunch of freezer meals for my husband to be able to pop in the oven, slow cooker or Instant Pot before I start treatment so even if I don’t feel like eating him and my son have a hearty, home cooked momma meal on the table every night even if I don’t have the energy/strength to cook. I’m going to be leaning on them a lot, I’m sure and I want everything as easy as possible for them because this doesn’t just affect me, it affects all of us as a family. It’s going to be hard on everyone and I want to be able to support them as much as they support me. My heart is just crushed right now, knowing what’s ahead. I watched my mom battle the same battle I’m facing and unfortunately she lost her battle. I don’t want my son to go through that, I’m trying to shield him as much as possible if that makes sense. He just turned 15 a week and a half ago and he’s going to have to be a little man now. I hate he’s losing his childhood like I did.
😢🙏🏻 so sweet of you to be thinking of your family in what’s ahead. Praying God gives you the strength and grace you need during this time!
@@user-bw8ki1qs6i bless you sweet friend! I worry about my family because this doesn’t just affect me, it affects us a whole family. I wouldn’t be where I am in life and be able to get through this without my family. God, family and good friends, that’s the important priorities in life. They don’t fail you ever so you put your energy in loving them and they love you back even in the worst times in life. They carry you when don’t feel like you can carry yourself. My faith, my family and my friends are my anchor in life.
Oh Kristy, I'm so sorry to hear that. You and your family will be in my prayers as you fight this battle
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 thank you Abby! I hope all is well for y’all and I’m praying y’all don’t get hit hard by that winter storm coming.
I talked to the oncologist today and prognosis with treatment is really optimistic. 95% survival rate. It’s just going to be a process. I put my faith in God to guide me, my family and my medical staff through this. He never fails and we will get through this through His grace. When I get stressed Joshua 1:9 runs through my head and it brings me peace. I think after this all over I’m getting a small little tattoo simply saying Joshua 1:9 to remind me of what I overcame and how God was always by my side, comforting me, keeping me strong and never letting me walk this walk alone.
Thank you for this! The Mississippi Roast meal looked delicious. I’m going to try it this week!
Have a beautiful week and start to February! 😊
Ohhh it's so good I think you'll like it!
You seriously always have the best simple meals and right at the right time when I need quick easy meals to plan. 💗💗💗 Hope you have a wonderful week. 💜
Glad you like them!
All your kids are cute, but your little one is a doll. Those big, happy eyes aand curly hair. Adorable.
You are so kind :)
Can't wait for next week's vid! I'm always looking for fun appetizers. Thanks for all the work you put into your vlog.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Thank you for the meal ideals. Your amazing with everything you do.
I look forward to all your meal and budget videos.
Thank you Denise!
Thanks Abby for sharing some Easy DELICIOUS looking meal ideas!!😋I ALWAYS enjoy your videos!!
Glad you like them!
Frozen Brussels sprouts in the air fryer are great! They get crispy and not mushy!
They're so good!
I love your meal ideas, especially the CrockPot Mexican Chicken. Thank you!
You're so welcome!
Yummuy
Thanks for sharing! Yummy!
Thanks for watching!
I’ve never put a stick of butter on a roast , but o will now. Lol❤️
It's really good!
Awesome ideas. Thanx!
You are welcome!
Thank you!. I'm gonna try all of them. I really like the chicken taco on I'm gonna leave black beans out my daughter won't eat but everything else is great.. blessing to you
Hope you enjoy!
Hey Abby, have you tried the Ragu Simply sauces? There is no added sugar and it's made only with Olive oil. Here in KY it's less than $2 if you would like to try it. Much cheaper than Rao's and in my opinion it tastes better. Ragu Simply has traditional sauce and chunky garden vegetable. Thank you for sharing these meals. Have a wonderful Sunday!
I gotta look for that one! We love Ragu in my house
Keep them coming. Enjoyed watching. I have an instant pot and haven’t used it. Need to watch. 😊❤️
Thanks for watching Janet!
They all look so delicious! Added to my "saved" videos.
Yay! Thank you!
You just had to know that the Mississippi roast was going to make it on the list! Absolutely love this recipe! I have tried various small changes to get variety. For instance using pork roast versus beef roast versus chicken; substituting an Italian seasoning packet, a brown gravy packet In place of the au jus. And yes I have tried different types of peppers as you show here. I have also used chicken vegetable or beef broth in place of water. And I have included fresh produce - small diced potatoes onions and carrots - in the crock pot along the roast. Literally the perfect one pot meal! I also add anywhere from a half a cup to a cup of flavored cream cheese, or sometimes a half cup of sour cream or Greek yogurt with the half cup of seasoned cream cheese. Makes an insanely creamy gravy!!!
This combo really does work with just about anything - agreed! It's so good!
TFS nice and quick meals
You are welcome!
I enjoy your videos and looking forward to seeing how you cook budget friendly healthy meals
Thank you! Glad to hear
You are one of the few where I watch the advertisements. Loved your dinners, especially the first one
Thanks Rebecca!
For the sprout, try this : cut in half, olive oil, garlic + oignon powder, pieces of bacon. Mix. In the air fryer at 350, shake couple of time and its ready when you feel its crispy and all Cook :)
Sounds delicious 😋
Sounds really yummy!
Abby, that ground beef skillet looked so good and is right up our alley where family meals are concerned!
Awesome!
Thank you for the video stay safe and God bless and you lots of love
Right back at you, Teresa!
Very delicious meals as always ❤️
Thank you 😋
I can't wait to make those recipes...they look so yummy and scrumptious my lv
Thank you!
Yummy 😋
It was!
I make my own ranch powder. Pretty cheap and easy. I use Damn Delicious recipe and multiply it by 4. The recipe x4 makes a whole quart of ranch powder. Then I just have to make it twice a year. It helps keep the msg and chemicals to a min, plus if you mix it with yogurt you have a probiotic!
That sounds really good!!
Made your crockpot Mexican chicken. Great flavor thank you!
Glad you liked it!!
I agree w u...i prefer fresh brus sprouts...me n my family luvs them...i luv u n ur videos!♥♥♥
Glad you like them!
Great video. You rock, sweet Abby! I like the green veggie hidden from my kids comment. I giggled when you said it, as so many of us have been there. 😆 I've been in a "don't want to cook" mode lately. Nothing really sounds good. This too shall pass.
Thanks for sharing and watching!! I have been through many a "don't want to cook" zones myself :)
I luv all ur recipes bc u make such easy n budget freindly meals. Im a poor mama...w the prices of groc now...i gta cut out sum meats/use less bt my hubby is a meat eater.🤦
Honey I don't care about your dirty dishes. You are a real working mom, keeping it real.
Thanks Lisa!
I would do the Brussels sprouts for me. Sounds yummy
They are really good!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 always my sweet friend thank your for keeping everything real I love that you get how busy life is and do not try to hide it. I appreciate that
I love that you are using poblanos instead of pepperoncini. I'm not a fan of pepperoncini but love poblanos!!
They're good in almost everything!
Everything looked really good! I think I'm gonna give spaghetti squash another try :)
It's so good!
I need that veggie chopper!!!!!
Link here! amzn.to/3rQ5fnS
I am going to try the first one without peppers.
It's good without ;)
I don't know how you do it! Your channel is doing brilliant...are you hoping to leave teaching and go full-time on TH-cam? Do you teaching full-time? What hours have you? I was a primary school teacher here in Ireland before having kids....I'm in awe with how much you do. God bless 😊
Thank you! And yes, currently teaching full-time
Just an FYI Abby....Hunts has a No Sugar Added pasta sauce...mine is usually on the bottom shelf all the way in the back of the other flavors at my grocery store...they like to hid it :)...any time I find it I buy all of it that they have because normally it is a $1/can...so yummy...we like Raos also but the price difference...great job girl!!!...love your meals...can't wait to try some of these!
Good to know! I gotta look for that one!
That's my awesome cousin! (Its me Victoria Abbey dear
Hi Victoria!! Thanks for watching :)
Here is an idea...the great value pizza sauce is sugar free, it comes in a big jar (23.4 oz) for $1.56. I'm super frugal.
Thanks for the tip! I'll have to try that out
If you don't mind me asking which brand frying pan/skillet are you using? I've been looking for one just like it.
Trying the Mexican chicken and stir fry (and jambalaya from another of your videos ☺️) this week. Question, how long was the Mexican chicken in the crockpot?
4 hours on high
Do you think you could do easy breakfast ideas? I have an 18 month old and I’m always looking for new ideas! 💕
Great idea!! Thanks for watching Katie!
Love your videos! I can tell that your life is anything but boring and hum drum! I wish I had the energy that your kids have! I used to but not any more! Is your FB group down? I can't seem to find it! Best wishes to all of you!!!!! Take care!
I think that you should do a few dinners and double up on the recipes make one now and freeze one for later it's a great method for busy moms and a lifesaver
Definitely a life saver!
I do that a lot too! So helpful and cost efficient!
Looks yummy! Do you like your gas stove ?
Yes I do!
That same walmart pizza here in Texas is $2.58 each
What a deal, right?!
Did I hear you say you have a TH-cam course? ....if so how do I find it? 🤔 thank u 💓
Hi! Yes, email me at abbythedford@gmail.com to find out more
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 I will do that . Thank you 😊
I put broccoli in my spaghetti sauce.
Ohhh great addition! Love that idea
Brussel sprouts cut in half, tossed with olive oil and a packet of ranch packet in the air fryer.
Can't beat that!
@@thesimplifiedsaver7052 I know, right!!??
I love your videos I hope you and your family are doing great I usually don't comment but I feel led to tell you about our lord and savior he died for our sins over came the grave and rose again on the 3rd day he is coming back for his people and fast this world is going crazy fast I'm a 29 year old mother of 6 kids and I never thought I would live to see the end times yet here we are I just want to spread God's word for who needs to hear about him and hear the truth please don't blow me off as crazy and this is for any one that sees this comment God loves you and you are worth it I hope every one is having a great day and keeps there chin up and sees the good in everything and it's very hard now days but we have hope I also wanted to say thank you for sharing all your tips on easy meals with my large family I need all the quick easy ideas I can get God bless and have a good day
