I'm 70, a widow, and I love your $5 dinners. Your meals give me 5-6 servings each. I eat 1 and put the rest in individual servings in the freezer. Five $5 meals gives me dinners for a month for $25!! Helps me eat better and stay in budget!! Thanks for all you do!!💕
That's great!! Good for you!! Curious what about a serving comes out to about To get 5 severing please? 1cup? 1 cup & 1/2 ? 2 cups? Tank you in advance !
I think I'm already in love with this series 💖. I'm a disabled woman who lives alone on a tiiiiiiight budget (even after working my hind end off for a little over 42 years, I don't draw a lot with today's inflation counted in). Groceries are a booger! I bout cry just entering the parking lot thinking of the prices...shewweeeee. I very much appreciate this series Brooke, thank you.
@@carlaluhn6806 I’m on Disability from the PO so I know it’s hard. I have Fibromyalgia so I buy Publix Homestyle Roast Beef & Cook it in my Microwave. It makes 4 dinners for me. It already has gravy in it so I make different Stews with it using Broccoli, Corn, Mashed Potatoes, Rice. It makes some Yummy Hot Meals on Cold Days.
I very much appreciate the realism of this channel. Things don't look like they're from a magazine only rich people can afford. There are dishes in/near the sink, where they belong. The awareness of hardship and the communication that there's no shame in struggling have always been refreshing. Most channels I've found that relate to frugality and hardship have better houses and equipment than my family did when we were well-off, and continue to use foodstuffs I don't have access to. Thank you so much for what you add to this subset of educational needs. (I have celiac disease and can't use most of your exact recommendations, but the methods you teach have helped me learn a lot of creativity and flexibility other channels could not provide. Bless you and yours. Thank you for turning your hardships into actionable lessons for others.)
Don’t forget to also wash & use the skins of the tater for tater skins. They are absolutely delicious. Gordon Ramsey makes a side dish of just tater skins. My son always wants the skins air fried when they do mashed potatoes.
Yes, please keep them coming, Frugal Momma. This is going to help a lot of people, including me. That ground turkey cannot be beat. I make meatloaf with it and then sometimes turn the leftovers into spaghetti and meat sauce. Your family is so sweet the way they appreciate your cooking.
I fell in love with 16 bean soup in my early 30’s. My grocery store has a loyalty point program. You can exchange points for grocery cash, gas discounts, donate to childhood cancer or buy specially discounted grocery items. On the items I can buy discounted is the 16 bean soup mix for 10 points. It has a flavoring mix and I can add meat if desired. I can also buy brown rice for $0.84lb and add that. Basically, I can make 13 servings for less than a $1. That’s my kind of Friday meal.
Recently I was at Physical therapy and mentioned I was cooking Steamboat hash for dinner that night. These youngsters had NO IDEA what hash was. They only knew Waffle house had hash browns and the fast food places had hash brown patties. Must be nice to be able to spend time and money on that. Anyway I explained that "in the day" on steamboats nothing went to waste so leftovers from dinners were cooked with diced potatoes for breakfast the next day. Beef, pork, chicken, mushroom and even seafood could be cooked up with onions and seasoning in a cast iron pot for pennies. And it was and still is delicious! I've even cooked leftover veggies in it. Scrumptious! On another note, I think I have something you'd love. I believe I saw you thrifting once and you bought a chicken basket thing you said you collect. I inherited a couple from a friend and I happened to get a pink one which if I remember correctly was one you were missing. Please let me know if you are still interested and I'll mail it to you. I'm assuming I can find your PO box if you mention it on one of your posts. I am totally ignorant in technology, but I'd love to complete your collection have you not done so as of yet. Love your posts, your family and your morals. Now also watching your sister and her crew. Adorable! Aunt Vicky is a hoot to watch on the cooking challenges but I'm a horrific DIYer. Like glue myself to the items and burn my fingers. My grandchildren have even told me," it's alright, Heydoll, as long as you tried your best!" Precious hearts!😂. Anyway let everyone know how to send something to you, please. Thank you.
Yes please more videos like this. Groceries are ridiculous right now,and every penny saved helps out. Can't wait to see what's in store for 2025. Thanks Brooke
I grew up on everything hashes, whatever we had left over plus onions and potatoes. Now that I'm watching carbs, I just dice up cabbage in place of the potatoes. If you get some caramelization on the cabbage, you don't even miss the potatoes!
The best way that I have to disguise onions is by grating it on a box grater not the side that ya grate the cheese on but the opposite side. It works like a charm. Thanks for the recipe.
@@TammyRoach-i6y that's exactly what I was going to suggest, I always like to add grated onions to meatloaf and meatballs. When I cook for kids or people that don't like the texture I will just add grated onions and celery.
I use a grater or a "slap chopper". Makes mushrooms look like minced meat/ground veggies crumbles. I also do carrots and add all three to meatloaf. Sometimes add zucchini.
Brilliant! Looking forward to this series. Im making this meal tomorrow for my family and will add some canned veggies from my pantry. I have all of the makings for this dinner on hand. Got a deal on 10 lbs of taters Christmas week. We are going to get big snow this weekend. Going to break out some canned peaches and mix up a cobbler to go with this dinner. We will be eating fine and all out if our pantry.
Try your hash with cubed smoked sausage instead of ground turkey. You leave out the tomato sauce too. My husband made it one morning with eggs and it was lovely.
Love this series Brooke. Everyone is on a Budget and this will fit into mine. Its looks delicious and you managed to please a houseful of guys. You deserve a medal.
My husband has acid reflux so he doesn't want anything with tomatoes and he hates onions, but between you and Julia Pacheco, you guys show so many tasty cheap recipes with them so i think I've decided to just make some of them for myself for lunches and my husband can have something else 😅
You can definitely customize! Maybe leave the onions out and add minced garlic or bell pepper. Instead of tomato sauce, you could do a cream based gravy! Such as adding 2 TBS to the cooked ground turkey, cooking it for a couple mins. Then adding 2 cups of milk. Whisk til it’s thick, and then add in the potatoes!
@cleopatrablackwell3414 i appreciate the wanting to help. But unfortunately he has tried many things, and he is a health nut himself so he knows all about those things you mentioned. He has a couple actual diagnosed conditions along with several food allegeries/autoimmune kind of inflammatory issues. So the best thing he has found is to just steer clear of certain foods.
I'm recently widowed and money is tight for me and my 2 girls. It's a lot of fun to watch your videos and try things we'd never have thought of otherwise. We all enjoy watching you and your family try these meals. Thanks for sharing all of your frugal recipes with all of us. My family appreciates you for much!! Happy New Year's from Oklahoma!!
This $5 meal looks delicious Brooke , this series is gonna be a big help to so many of us , in this high food inflation times !! i could see how adding a can of drained whole kernel corn would stretch it even more and add more veggie to the meal if you had an extra .50 cents in the budget !! Thanks Brooke
Hey there Brooke glad to see y'all... Yes hope y'all had a great Holidays as well.. thanks for sharing with us... Poor man's hash looks really good.. simple easy cheap and delicious what more could you want.... Love y'all and till next time..🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰
My German mother pressure cooked everything. She got food on the table fast. She was really careful with the grocery money so she had extra money to spend at the thrift store for us.
Winner winner $5 dinner, bestie! Awesome new series, Brooke. Thank you for having a servant's heart and taking on food security like a prize fighter. You and your family warm my heart. I love you to pieces. Be blessed, my Southerland Squad! xoxo
The dinner looked yummy. I make something similar and put the mixture inside rolled out canned biscuits with a sprinkle of cheese, seal the edges and bake until browned. You can dip in ketchup or whatever sauce you like. They are delicious and filling.
Love this series can’t wait till next Friday. I am a 52 year old widow Husband died in 2020 due to Covid. I have had to stop working due to a heart a stroke and to grandma seizures so Any cheap meal ideals are fabulous and I still have two kids at home so this is great. and you really do help my bottom line. Thank you.
😊 I absolutely love your poor man's hash. There were times we would take hamburger, cook it up and add ketchup and little brown sugar and that's what we called poor man sloppy joe it was really good though. Happy New Year Brooke God bless.
Thank you so much for doing these dinners and sharing them with all of us. I read through your comments & really see so many in need & so appreciative of having access to your channel to help them through. Thank you for being you & keeping the spirit alive in so many struggling.
I appreciate the budget meals. As a household of 8 it's hard to feed everyone a decent meal at a decent price. So glad I discovered your channel this past December.
Brooke, you are so kind and so talented. You’re really showing that inexpensive meals can be delicious ones too. I love this series. Please keep it going! Oh and by the way, your family’s adorable too!
I absolutely LOVE this series miss Brooke!! This is right up my alley, it looks delicious, I'm definitely gonna make this one. Ty so much for sharing, may God bless y'all 💙💙
That looks good and that's a hearty meal for under 5.00!!! This will be a great series and can't wait for other ideas. Do this for breakfast and and over easy eggs.
Loving your channel! I’ve hated cooking over the years but I’m enjoying your simple, don’t measure approach to meals! I’m super stoked about your $5 fridays. Thank you for being you. You and your “guys” are real-life! Keep it up Brooke! ❤
Awesome new series! I'm single, retired, living on a fixed income, so these meal ideas really help! You always have the best series. I always look forward to a new video from you. ❤️
Brooke, you have such a happy channel! You have a positive way of looking at life, no matter what circumstances may be, and it's contageous. I enjoy watching you cook and look forward to what you're going to come up with next. Keep on keeping on because you're helping people in so many ways. ❤
Love the new series idea. This looked good. Bet it would also be good with little cut up pieces of breakfast link sausage if that's all you had too. This series is really timely!
Brooke, I am 78 years old and love watching you and your family. I know you will call me picky but I cannot eat ground turkey, don’t really like turkey at holidays but can eat it.. but the ground I just can’t eat.. I have truly tried.. I would just get me a cheap pack of hotdogs to replace turkey..keep up the $5 Friday videos..
I would probably substitute ground pork because I have a family member who cannot have poultry or eggs. I think it would be just as good; but might cost a little more.
@@marylamb1649 I used half ground pork and half beef to make chili.. it was okay but not sure how I feel about trying it again.. but I will try ground pork on its own soon.. food has gotten so expensive that this old gal may eat a lot of things that I don’t like.
Have you ever tried to air fry the potato skins for a snack or for the next meal? I put a little oil on the skins and whatever seasoning strikes me at the time and pop my air fryer. Cook until crispy. Sometimes I top like a baked potato on the plate or use like a French fry. Stretch that budget! 😊
Yes, yes! Five dollars truly do not go far in Canada but I am taking on this challenge. My husband and I are on a teeny tiny disability pension, so yes! Love you and your family to boot!❤️from Canada. 🇨🇦
Definitely keep these coming. Your recipes are so straight forward. I get so much anxiety about wasting food on new hard to fallow recipe yours are so simple but look tasty and easy to adapt.
Growing up we always stretched dinner with bread and margarine. If you had bought the green beans, you could put the seasoned turkey in the bottom of a casserole dish. Drain the beans and spread on top of the meat. Then top with mashed potatoes for shepherds pie.
Hi Brooke, when I want to put onion in the dish, and I know the kids don't like it but for the flavor it needs to be put in, I use the cheese grater on the fine side. I'm a big fan of your channel and always look forward to the show. Have a great start of the new year! Blessings to you and your family.
This is going to be a more frugal year in 2025! We have 6 in our family. And these $5 dollar dinners are great, thank you for sharing, I'm 70, and I have my daughter, son plus my two granddaughters, my husband and I. It gets tuff at times. Happy New Year Brooke to you and your family

I love Bean soup! I used to buy those soup mixes years ago. So good 😋
16 bean soup is one of my favorite soups or meals in cold weather.
@ me too 🎉
That is amazing you can feed your family of five on $5. I can't wait to see the next one.

Kale, turkey bacon and hashbrowns are my breakfast in my calorie deficit. Super healthy, cheap, low calorie if you make in moderation and easy to make
What I do for the onions is dice them up fine BUT then I cut up a few bigger then they pick out the big pieces and think they picked them all out 😂
😂😂😂 I like that!!!
😂
Awesome logic!
I like the way your mind works ❤
Wow I'm going to try that lol!!!

You're absolutely right! That's a great idea. Thanks for sharing!
@ you probably could have gotten a bag and still stayed with your $5 budget
Watched another youtuber take the potato peels (washed), toss them with oil and bake until crisp. Nothing wasted. Delicious snack.
I think it was Emmy.
It don't matter what you do! We will watch!
Love this series. Thank you.

Hey, Brooke.
I love watching you and the fam.
I love that you show how to cook (cheap). And come up with good dishes. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much.

That looks delicious and comforting. Your family is such a blessing.😊❤
Love the idea of 5.00 Friday's!! Good job Brooke!

Your family is completely ADORABLE! Love your meal idea tips & recipes! Thank you so much for sharing!
I did not know about the cheap ground turkey. Gotta start working that into my meal plan.
I recently discovered it too. It's about half the price of beef. In a highly seasoned dish it's really not noticeable that it's not ground beef.
I love this new series and you, Brooke! This meal sounds delicious! ❤️🧡💛
I love you and your family! You always make me smile! And your cooking brings new ideas to my kitchen! Thanks!
Yes love these keep them coming !!
Happy new year Brooke and family and everyone watching! Best wishes for y'all and lots of love! 🐢🐢💞💞💚💚

Hi Brooke, when I want to put onion in the dish, and I know the kids don't like it but for the flavor it needs to be put in, I use the cheese grater on the fine side. I'm a big fan of your channel and always look forward to the show. Have a great start of the new year! Blessings to you and your family.
I just chuck a whole onion in take it out before the kids see it,and I get the whole onion.😊
This is going to be a more frugal year in 2025! We have 6 in our family. And these $5 dollar dinners are great, thank you for sharing, I'm 70, and I have my daughter, son plus my two granddaughters, my husband and I. It gets tuff at times. Happy New Year Brooke to you and your family
I love this $5 series! This one looks delicious. I would definitely add green beans for just over $5.
I fry my potatoes in butter. So good.
Love the $5.00 dinners, but I love all of your videos!!
Love the Sunday Suppers series and hope those continue in 2025!!
I love this series. Yum! This channel is real.
Perfect meal!
