Can I just say a struggle meal and a meal on a budget are two different things. How I would spend $15 on a meal is different than how I would spend my LAST $15 on a meal. I think that’s where the confusion came in. That rice beans and plantains would gↄ a lot further if you struggling. 😂
I was thinking that 15 dollars can be a lot of money for one meal, especially if you're cooking for one or two. Also, I would have more vegetables like some greens on that plate.
I have so much respect for Makeba. It made me tear up a little because girl you understood the assignment. Ive been there man. Minr was a cup of noodles with egg and lunch meat over here!
Ikr took me back! When I got my first place and my budget wS $125 for the month now I'm like siiiissss how did u do it......idk but I did it and fed my dog a d made it work, I Def ate a lot of rice lol
me too because I believe hers was truly struggle meal/budget. you can tell that it took a short time to cook and was cheap. I've had tons of meals where I didn't add any seasoning because I was just cooking for myself and I didn't have time to be marinating and coating and all that stuff because I was focused on getting myself fed no matter what taste it had 😂 I don't understand how that is percieved as "white" but to each their own 🤷🏽
@@happypenguin25 one of the ladies said that because the rice and beans and stuff had no seasoning that if this wasn't the cocoa butter channel she would of thought a white person made the dish
Yeah I respect her Struggle meal most. In college my struggle meal was Kraft mac and cheese with imitation crab meat. It use to cost all of $5 to make lol.
REAL i regularly spend $40/week on groceries including water bottles toilet paper etc. Lowest was $27. 5 home cooked meals I lost it when they said $15. most of my meals are under $3 per serving
Nah, rice + beans and plantain was the realest. THAT is an authentic struggle meal. The others were just "budget-friendly". When you're struggling - aint no meat on the table LOL
I appreciate the honesty of the rice, beans, and plantain. That is a real meal I have had many times. Sometimes, you add an egg. You can add hot sauce, if you have it, and keep that bean broth. Others hating on that meal came off as privileged and we had to stop watching. Rice, beans, and plantains wins!
I know you don't wanna buy ketchup and other sauces in stores 🏪 as a budget person But.......................... fast food restaurants giveaway FREE ketchup and other sauce packets 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Too be honest I felt bad when they were hating at it I had this meal but I did have egg and some meat with it but if you don't have meat it's fine with just an egg
Queen and Kayline ain't ever struggled. Makeba has been through it. She's the only one that created a struggle meal and I appreciate how real it was. You're not trying to be fancy you're trying to survive. Therefore the goal is to be dirt cheap and to stretch. Makeba's did that. The sauce is the ketchup in your fridge, the beans are the cheapest form of protein, the plantain is cheap, filling and satisfying and the rice carries it. You still have money left over in case, and you can safely eat that meal all week till payday. The other two however were showing us $15 meals. She critiqued the way she did cause she knew that someone who struggled the way she did would have come a lot better if they had $15 to make one meal, for one person, for one day. Neither of them milked that money for what it's worth, talking bout chicken fillet, precut bell peppers and almond milk. Y'all better leave Makeba alone, she was spot on. $15 for one meal and you don't even have greens, wheel and come again.
@@jmar0320thank you people don’t know the difference between struggle and budget. Obviously the goal is to buy ingredients within the budget and make a dish with them. Never said it had to be struggle meal 🙄
Keyword "budget", so she ain't follow directions. Yea she struggled blah blah, like that's a prize or sum.. But they literally gave them a budget for a budget meal. Struggling is using half to save the other half. A budget is what you have to use and she should've used it.. Sooooo

Maybe she could eat out once or twice a day in a decent like chilis/Fridays/Applebees type restaurant. 350/7 is $50 a day. You go to chilis/Applebees that’s 20-25 bucks each time. But she could definitely go to the store and get high quality beef, chicken, and fish and some good sides and good deserts for way under $50/day.
@@shawnm7246 factuals. Red beans and rice, Jambalaya, breakfast meals, burgers etc all under 15 lol I understand them sticking with the script but $15 you can really push the limit like the last girl did
bruh i can buy a whole week's grocery for $15! if I hit dollar tree, I can get a full loaf of bread, 6 eggs, milk, pasta, beans, rice, pancake mix, oatmeal and sooo much more jeez. I can cook WELL with $15. a budget meals budge should've been 2-5$ maxx smh
They clearly don’t know what a struggle meal is. First girl definitely won in my books. When your struggling you don’t make what you want to eat or what tastes best but what you can afford to keep yourself fed and a roof over your head. She did that.
Makeba repeatedly talking about flavor with the other dishes had me weak😭😭 then she said she would switch out the chicken w the yellow rice with BEANS LMAOO
🤣 Right! Her meal had no flavor, talking about switching chicken for beans, and why didn't she get asparagus with her extra $6, since she was critiquing so hard 😂😂😂
She made a struggle meal, the other two made a budget meal. ie Makeba acted like she was down to her last $15, while the others acted like they budgeted $15 for a meal. The commentary ought to be different. Had the others made struggle meals too, I don't think she would've critiqued the way she did.
as a single mom, I've lived on rice and beans before. BUT! I always added simple cheap things like onions, green peppers, cheap hot dogs, or just buillion cubes to make it taste as good as I could. And then, I'd switch up the beans-- make red beans n rice, hoppin john, bean curry, etc to keep things a little interesting.
Sounds good to me! I grew up on rice and beans and I would still eat a full plate today 😋 especially seasoned and cooked with love from your mom it’s nothing like it 🫶🏻
No Makeba did not ask where's the greens when she had no meat, greens or flavor on her plate, but had double starch. Queen's skin is smooth like cocoa butter.
Why ain’t nobody make spaghetti? That’s a Fr struggle meal if it had to be and will last 😭 Edit: I don’t know how many of y’all actually cook bc y’all acting like spaghetti cost an arm and a leg to make and if it does you making some boujee spaghetti 😂
I would've definitely gone for some pasta too because of it's versatility. Grab some cherry tomatoes, some spinach, garlic, onion - baby, you got a stew going!
@@wastingtime9004 I don't disagree lol I just wasn't aware of the dish's origins. I grew up in the south and had it often so I assumed others did too. But thank you for educating me😊
@@goddesslafwa7704 Sounds like a lucky childhood... I'm from the South too and all I got was ramen noodles and kraft mac and cheese with ketchup in it. 😒
@@wastingtime9004 oh I am so sorry you had to endure that. Idk if you have or plan to have a family but I do hope you can turn that around for yourself now(if you haven't already). Food can be so interesting and fun. We didn't have much but food was one of the things we sort of invested in because it meant time together. Ofc back then all the stuff that's popular now (i.e. oxtail, crab, goat and certain cuts of lamb) were less popular and much much cheaper. I realize in hindsight that our diet was heavily influenced by the Caribbean. Lots of Haitian, Jamaican and even Cuban and Dominican dishes. Irish was a fun discovery.
I've never heard of Enfrijoladas or had them. Lol I had to look it up 😂. It's like inside out bean and cheese enchiladas. That sounds pretty good. Interested in trying it 😊! My "struggle" struggle meal while at work ramen with jar Alfredo sauce 😅. Or burgers, usually cuz you already have everything in your fridge for them 😁
$15 is not a struggle meal. $6 (left in your account until next payday) is a struggle meal. $15 will get you a 4 oz Filet & a baked potato or 1 lobster tail & some pasta 😂
The flavor is fine, but they're usually soggier and add water to the dish I'm cooking and mess up the texture. But I've grown up on them, and still use them from time to time. I actually use them in my shepherd's pie!
Before I saw the rice beans and plantains, that's exactly what I thought of as my budget meal, except it'd be Cuban black beans and lemon butter rice with a sprinkling of ham or bacon, and some salsa and chips along with the plantains. With 15 dollars you can dress up that dish pretty well.
This! That’s what I’m saying! She didn’t even try with the dish! A whole $15 and you didn’t use that to get seasonings? Vegetables? A pack of back? Turkey sausage links? Nothing? 😭
I also think that a good struggle meal or budget meal means buying things that you can use again that week like that bag of rice or potatoes. Mashed potatoes Monday for dinner, roasted potatoes Wednesday morning and again that night etc.
My favorite budget meal that last for about 3 days with me and my daughter A rotisserie chicken: $7 Alfredo sauce:$4 Alfredo noodles: $3 Frozen broccoli $3 Boom!! Under $20
my mom used to get us rotisserie chicken and some break and we would make like two days of sandwiches and eat some and store the rest between the days and it was very nice
i usually make a good but simple type of pasta that lasts me 3 days when i don’t have much money, it helps a lot. buy ingredients for 3 meals and have a weeks worth of food
if you wanna get technical its cottage pie not shepherds pie and there was more potatoes than meat just not a lot more, her ratio is good considering theres peas too
@@elighabailey4019 oh I’m not criticizing Kayline’s dish; Queen was saying that she’s never eaten a shepherd’s pie before and I was just saying that I can tell by how she pointed out that there was a lot of potatoes and not a lot of meat
@@elighabailey4019 Well, if you really want to get technical, you're incorrect! Cottage Pie ingredients uses ground beef and potato. In the video @7:29 she used ground turkey. But in the 19th century people have just coined the term Sheperd's Pie because of the added different ingredients like vegetables, bacon, cheese, beans, or whatever leftovers that they had.
"A white person made this." Plsss that stereotype always takes me out cause my mom black and can't cook for shit but my grandmama white be showing up everybody on thanksgiving and cookouts.
I love how this clearly shows we have different definitions of struggle even if it’s by an inch (gravy)🤧like your struggle could be unfathomable to someone but they are also struggling with their own stuff🤦🏽♀️
Makeba went way Budget, Queen would have saved more money if she bought a whole chicken instead of the pieces and Kayline could have gotten regular cheese and shredded it herself which would have aloud for at least a can of carnation milk to help the potatoes along and even a stick of butter. This shows me that everyone def sees budgets diff, because I budget food for the month np, this weekly budget thing it isnt for me.
Also if queen would have gotten a whole bell pepper instead of the sliced one! Where I live most shredded cheese is actually cheaper than the whole one tho
@@larissa-eb4vx My thoughts exactly, pre chopped peppers are waaay more expensive than cutting your own, with a few changes her same dish could easily be made for under $10
2:51 can you stop saying ignorant things like this? It’s not cute or funny, it’s offensive and wrong. Just cuz The English don’t season their peas and carrots to your liking, doesn’t mean that Italian, French, Southern, Spanish, German, etc. food is bland. White ppl obviously know how to season girl😂
I have to say that the first dish was actually much more a budget meal imo. They didn't use expensive seasonings(if any), probably the bare minimum amount of cooking oil and included a low cost protein (beans). I thought that they were on point with keeping it low and nutritious regardless if it was lacking flavor. I don't think $15 is a budget meal either. The first meal bought things that'll last a few days versus spending a whole $15 on a singular portion.
If you’re struggling you can eat more beans per price of meat. It’s common sense, the difference is the interpretation of budget meal. 15$ is not a budget meal, that’s just a meal, expensive too if you’re not using ingredients from home, like rice and beans.
$15 doesn't seem like a budget for a single person. I could make a ribeye and baked potato for $15. I also wouldn't count the cost of a whole bag of rice, or beans, just what you used. My budget meal is rice, eggs, breakfast sausage. About $3/person.
@@DeityLover Ribeye is about $25/lb. Go to the butcher counter and ask them for a 4oz cut, it's around $6.50. Have to know how to get what you want and not buy the only thing the store offers. (And that steak price is for organic grass fed beef from Sprouts, you could definitely get more for cheaper)
@@kerrina0316 sure but I live outside of LA in SoCal so I don't think their prices are far off from mine. You can straight up get a meal from Panera for under $15 no need to eat rice and beans. You could see their receipts.
I'm not even on a struggle budget and $3-5/ person is about how much I spend everyday. A true struggle meal is eggs and rice for a grand total of $3! Enough to feed 6 people easily.
love the casual classism the contestants show. it truly demonstrates that most people really do not understand what budgeting and poverty is like. that's a daily meal for me! and i love it! because it's better than soggy canned peaches from the food pantry
$15 is lowkey a lot for a budget meal. I would’ve popped over to dollar tree where I would’ve gotten the ingredients to make spaghetti with sausage, mashed potatoes, garlic bread, and asparagus
I loved the first dish!! A struggle meal, truly is just that. A meal with whatever you have left in your cupboards/pantry. It's not meant to be fancy, it's meant to be edible.
Only the first girl made an actual struggle meal. Clownish behavior from the other girls making a big deal about her not using meat. Rice and beans are staples in homes on a budget. I would've added maybe chicken broth, peppers and onions to the beans but there was nothing wrong with her meal.
Makeba talked about sucky plating like girl you had a spoon of rice sprinkled with beans on top with struggle plantains put around it for garnish. Plz! 🤣
If we're talking about a real struggle meal, as in that $15 has to last several days: dried beans, rice, and a ton of seasonings from the pantry. Add some chicken if it's in the budget and/or you already have enough rice and beans at home. My budget meal is chili. Realistically about $10 out of our weekly food budget of $80. Makes 4 portions for my spouse and I, and freezes very well. -$4: one lb. ground beef -$2: two cans beans (kidney + black) -$3: two cans diced tomatoes -$1: tomato paste + Pantry goods: white rice, lots of seasonings, chicken or beef bouillon. Let's be generous and say these take up the remaining $5 for the portions used. Buying the larger packs of beef and weighing them out into freezer bags can bring the cost down even more.
my struggle meal is sopa de frijoles and it’s as cheap as u can possible get. it’s literally just a bean soup and then u add sour cream, tapatio, and limon. it sounds weird but TRUST. if ur on a budget , u love beans/soup… this the one
Lol I would say I tried Shepherd's Pie and it is very good. Good enough that I make it myself now. However, before my 20s I never seen nor heard of it in my home or the black homes around me and the first time I tried it was from a white person lol.
My favorite budget meal is usually a soup, like a nice lentil soup or escarole and bean soup...I can easily make a huge pot for $5 or less and can last days...the brothier the better!
My great grandmother immigrated from Ireland to the US and she made Shepherds pie, quite often and traditionally a Shepards pie is made with ground lamb, ground beef, vegetables including peas, covered in a brown gravy and topped with rich, buttery mashed potatoes however I would love to try this beautiful womans version of Shepard's pie because ground turkey woukd probably be very good and her presentation despite having to spend only 15 dollars, was excellent. She definitely deserved the highest rating and I do love that she tried something different, put her own spin on such a traditional dish and would've loved to try her version
@@pianosistah I bet it was delicious and you'll be able to help carry on his memory by making his Shepherds pie and other things he made, as well as, all the other memories you and him shared. I am very sorry for your loss 💜 regardless of how recent his passing was, wanted to give my condolences 💜

My real struggle meal is a pack of tostadas, refried beans, avocado, tapatio. Stack it up and you can make about 5 servings with one can of beans and two avocados. It hits 😂😂
My struggle meal has become dry beans in the crockpot with whatever spices i have on hand (or leftover bacon grease) or if no good spices for it, just water. Potatoes go a long way a hundred different ways as well.

This is a BUDGET MEAL. Not struggle. Yes obviously people think when looking at cheap meals you vision “struggling” but that’s not what this video is.
Kayline’s weekly budget is $350?!!!!
Me: (submits resume to Buzzfeed/Coca Butter)
Nm wtf she really does spend 350 a week. That's crazy you could eat out every meal with that money in a decent resteraunt
It’s probably groceries and take out not that hard to spend that much on food 😭😭😭
Maybe she could eat out once or twice a day in a decent like chilis/Fridays/Applebees type restaurant. 350/7 is $50 a day. You go to chilis/Applebees that’s 20-25 bucks each time. But she could definitely go to the store and get high quality beef, chicken, and fish and some good sides and good deserts for way under $50/day.
its all about how you prioritize! 😂
I used to spend $350 a week during the pandemic shiiiiid. But then again it’s a household of 6 I’m feeding so 😂😂😂😂
$15 for a struggle meal?!?! There’s sooooo much stuff you can make with $15 lmao I’d dream of doing something like this
No kidding. for 15 dollars I could make an entire roast chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, and a salad. Enough to feed four people.
@@shawnm7246 factuals. Red beans and rice, Jambalaya, breakfast meals, burgers etc all under 15 lol I understand them sticking with the script but $15 you can really push the limit like the last girl did
$15 for a single person's struggle meal?! That's a whole spread for 3 to 4 people! $1to $2 for asparagus stalks?! Where?!
Facts! lol. With $15 I can make that meal stretch for 3-4 days lol
bruh i can buy a whole week's grocery for $15! if I hit dollar tree, I can get a full loaf of bread, 6 eggs, milk, pasta, beans, rice, pancake mix, oatmeal and sooo much more jeez. I can cook WELL with $15. a budget meals budge should've been 2-5$ maxx smh
Y’all would’ve been mad at me when I showed up with a bowl of spaghetti 😂😂😂😂😂😂
STOPP LMAOO
Same
Some spaghetti and butter and garlic ain't never did me wrong
LMAO
Right? 😂 Or straight up elbow macaroni with tomato juice
They clearly don’t know what a struggle meal is. First girl definitely won in my books. When your struggling you don’t make what you want to eat or what tastes best but what you can afford to keep yourself fed and a roof over your head. She did that.
But it was a budget meal challenge not a struggle meal.
Title says budget meal not struggle meal
@@Miko2030 but you don't set a budget for 20-15 dollars... thats a struggle.
@@Raven_stan A real struggling person wont spend 15-20 on a SINGLE MEAL. It’s a budget meal because they are cooking a dish within a price range.
@@Raven_stan You can go to the cheesecake factory (or another nonfast food restaurant) and get a food item for 20$ its not a struggle meal
I love the way she has those colorful beads like bangs ❤. Doesnt hurt she has a glowing personality to go with that unique style.
Makeba repeatedly talking about flavor with the other dishes had me weak😭😭 then she said she would switch out the chicken w the yellow rice with BEANS LMAOO
I think she really likes beans😂
🤣 Right! Her meal had no flavor, talking about switching chicken for beans, and why didn't she get asparagus with her extra $6, since she was critiquing so hard 😂😂😂
She made a struggle meal, the other two made a budget meal. ie Makeba acted like she was down to her last $15, while the others acted like they budgeted $15 for a meal. The commentary ought to be different. Had the others made struggle meals too, I don't think she would've critiqued the way she did.
@@anthonys7295 right 😂😂 where were her greens at
@@annmariebusu9924 definitely does😂 she had a specific type of bean she would’ve switched it with & everything
as a single mom, I've lived on rice and beans before. BUT! I always added simple cheap things like onions, green peppers, cheap hot dogs, or just buillion cubes to make it taste as good as I could. And then, I'd switch up the beans-- make red beans n rice, hoppin john, bean curry, etc to keep things a little interesting.
Hotdogs in the beans is 🔥
Right lol onion soup packet or something
@@AfiOyebeanies and weenies 😭😭💜
Sounds good to me! I grew up on rice and beans and I would still eat a full plate today 😋 especially seasoned and cooked with love from your mom it’s nothing like it 🫶🏻
When the rice & beans girl said someone else’s presentation sucked I gasped ☠️
😂😂😂she was too foolish for that one
literally cs WHETTT?
“Rice and beans girl” 😂😂😂😂
Me too 😭😭😂
😂😂😂 she's hilarious
The first one is the only one that understood the assignment
No Makeba did not ask where's the greens when she had no meat, greens or flavor on her plate, but had double starch.
Queen's skin is smooth like cocoa butter.
Why ain’t nobody make spaghetti? That’s a Fr struggle meal if it had to be and will last 😭
Edit: I don’t know how many of y’all actually cook bc y’all acting like spaghetti cost an arm and a leg to make and if it does you making some boujee spaghetti 😂
Yep there’s always spaghetti in the fridge 🤷🏽♀️😩😂🤣☝🏽
Or tacos
Bingo 😂😂 spaghetti or some ramen noodles
I would've definitely gone for some pasta too because of it's versatility. Grab some cherry tomatoes, some spinach, garlic, onion - baby, you got a stew going!
For sure
$350 in groceries for the week is crazy I wanna see that haul 😂😂😂
That’s my grocery budget for the month too lol
The person said it’s their weekly budget 🤔
Right? I can't even imagine what she's buying because my partner and I spend about 120-200 per week for the both of us and our 5 pets.
Yea, that’s quite the budget.
That’s more than I spend for my family of five!
Egg fried rice is my favourite budget meal. Only need onion, garlic and eggs. If you feel fancy add a few frozen peas and you have a great meal.
Agree! Sometimes if I feel a little fancy and have some extra $$ I add pineapple and maybe some chicken.
This right here and quick to make. I put chicken in mine though
Shepherd's pie being a "white meal' is so new to me 😂😂😂 I'm blackity black black and my mom always made a mean shepherd's pie
"Blackity black black" made me chuckle thank you 😂😂😁
Considering it’s a traditional Irish/British dish, I would say your mom is definitely in the minority.
@@wastingtime9004 I don't disagree lol I just wasn't aware of the dish's origins. I grew up in the south and had it often so I assumed others did too. But thank you for educating me😊
@@goddesslafwa7704 Sounds like a lucky childhood... I'm from the South too and all I got was ramen noodles and kraft mac and cheese with ketchup in it. 😒
@@wastingtime9004 oh I am so sorry you had to endure that. Idk if you have or plan to have a family but I do hope you can turn that around for yourself now(if you haven't already). Food can be so interesting and fun. We didn't have much but food was one of the things we sort of invested in because it meant time together. Ofc back then all the stuff that's popular now (i.e. oxtail, crab, goat and certain cuts of lamb) were less popular and much much cheaper.
I realize in hindsight that our diet was heavily influenced by the Caribbean. Lots of Haitian, Jamaican and even Cuban and Dominican dishes. Irish was a fun discovery.
As a Mexican- my struggle meals are picadillo or enfrijoladas 😋
Same girl 🤣💯
I've never heard of Enfrijoladas or had them. Lol I had to look it up 😂. It's like inside out bean and cheese enchiladas. That sounds pretty good. Interested in trying it 😊! My "struggle" struggle meal while at work ramen with jar Alfredo sauce 😅. Or burgers, usually cuz you already have everything in your fridge for them 😁
$15 is not a struggle meal. $6 (left in your account until next payday) is a struggle meal. $15 will get you a 4 oz Filet & a baked potato or 1 lobster tail & some pasta 😂
NO they asked for a "Budget Meal" no struggle meal
15 lobster tail and pasta where
Budget meal and struggle meal are two different things.
Lobster tail??
That's probably not real lobster if it's that cheap.
Frozen veggies are life. I don't get it the hate.
The flavor is fine, but they're usually soggier and add water to the dish I'm cooking and mess up the texture. But I've grown up on them, and still use them from time to time. I actually use them in my shepherd's pie!
Exactly! Wayyyyy better than canned
If you like frozen veggies make your own chicken pot pie that’s cheap ❤
But she literally had NO VEGGIES 😂🤣🤣
It’s odd to me when people act like frozen vegetables are just so horrible. It’s how we survive.
Girl, a HEAD of asparagus?! for 1-2 dollars?! I’m so confused…
lol only place ive seen asparagus that cheap was aldi and them bitches look like a bundle of string beans. 😂
@@Social_PugatoryI’ve never even seen them that cheap at aldi
Right? As a "veggie snob"
Lidl has asparagus for around 2.00 to 3.00
Asparagus $2.49 by my house right now.
Before I saw the rice beans and plantains, that's exactly what I thought of as my budget meal, except it'd be Cuban black beans and lemon butter rice with a sprinkling of ham or bacon, and some salsa and chips along with the plantains. With 15 dollars you can dress up that dish pretty well.
This! That’s what I’m saying! She didn’t even try with the dish! A whole $15 and you didn’t use that to get seasonings? Vegetables? A pack of back? Turkey sausage links? Nothing? 😭
Love all 3 of these queens and their different personalities lol
I also think that a good struggle meal or budget meal means buying things that you can use again that week like that bag of rice or potatoes. Mashed potatoes Monday for dinner, roasted potatoes Wednesday morning and again that night etc.
Oh I cannot wait to watch this later and laugh my ass off at the subtle drags they give each other 😭
It delivers.
@@dandles2010😅😂😂😂
My favorite budget meal that last for about 3 days with me and my daughter
A rotisserie chicken: $7
Alfredo sauce:$4
Alfredo noodles: $3
Frozen broccoli $3
Boom!! Under $20
my mom used to get us rotisserie chicken and some break and we would make like two days of sandwiches and eat some and store the rest between the days and it was very nice
As a Canadian, I'm seeing these prices, and weeping 😂
i usually make a good but simple type of pasta that lasts me 3 days when i don’t have much money, it helps a lot. buy ingredients for 3 meals and have a weeks worth of food
“I don’t want my booty to squeeze” has me in stitches right now 😂
🤣🤣🤣 same
yeah but then she just bi$£ed about a food she never tried before and barely ate it.
Took me clean out
I don't understand what it means/why she would say that 😭
@@shoozuLMFOAOAOA she might be lactose intolerant and cheese might make her have to go to the bathroom 😭😭
Clearly Queen had never had a shepherd’s pie before, because there’s supposed to be more potatoes than meat😬
if you wanna get technical its cottage pie not shepherds pie and there was more potatoes than meat just not a lot more, her ratio is good considering theres peas too
@J.E20 I know that, that’s what I’m saying. That it’s obvious that she doesn’t know what shepherd’s pie is because the dish is supposed to be that way
@@elighabailey4019 oh I’m not criticizing Kayline’s dish; Queen was saying that she’s never eaten a shepherd’s pie before and I was just saying that I can tell by how she pointed out that there was a lot of potatoes and not a lot of meat
@@elighabailey4019 Well, if you really want to get technical, you're incorrect! Cottage Pie ingredients uses ground beef and potato. In the video @7:29 she used ground turkey. But in the 19th century people have just coined the term Sheperd's Pie because of the added different ingredients like vegetables, bacon, cheese, beans, or whatever leftovers that they had.
it's not a white shepherd's pie (today i learned how to spell shepherd)
"A white person made this." Plsss that stereotype always takes me out cause my mom black and can't cook for shit but my grandmama white be showing up everybody on thanksgiving and cookouts.
That woman said some dumb and racist things. don't mind it
@@sadgirlx619 She's said other things? 😭
Unfortunately it holds true for my family. My mom is black and can cook her butt off. My dad is white and can't even boil hotdogs 🙄
@@Kaisforeignadventures Not hot dogs. 😭
@@jourdonpatron212 sadly yes 😂
I love how this clearly shows we have different definitions of struggle even if it’s by an inch (gravy)🤧like your struggle could be unfathomable to someone but they are also struggling with their own stuff🤦🏽♀️
@1:48 when she looked down at that plate and I seen baby girl photo smilingin the corner I LOsttttt my shitttt!!!!!!like no she didnt😂😂😂
Please more from this 3 black queens , their personality so different and i love it
Right! They’re all hilarious.
They could be on show as roommates 😂
Makeba went way Budget, Queen would have saved more money if she bought a whole chicken instead of the pieces and Kayline could have gotten regular cheese and shredded it herself which would have aloud for at least a can of carnation milk to help the potatoes along and even a stick of butter. This shows me that everyone def sees budgets diff, because I budget food for the month np, this weekly budget thing it isnt for me.
Also if queen would have gotten a whole bell pepper instead of the sliced one! Where I live most shredded cheese is actually cheaper than the whole one tho
@@larissa-eb4vx My thoughts exactly, pre chopped peppers are waaay more expensive than cutting your own, with a few changes her same dish could easily be made for under $10
OMG
@@reesiezanga5232 exactly!!
And I don't understand how the potatoes cost more than the meat??? 😭
Makeba seems so smart, well spoken you lady. I wish her well
THE COUGH 💀😭 3:31 Why people always wheezing and dying
I think something to take into consideration while you watch this would be the general prices of groceries in different cities and states ♥️
My struggle meal is either a bowl of cereal or a Ramen. If I feel like it I'd just make a sandwich.
Y’all never bought a big ass bag of rice and beans that last you forever? That’s what I do 😂
That what I do lol 😂
Have a cabinet full lol
Bean girl judging the other dishes presentation and lack of beans has me rollin
Me too! Especially when she said the plate needed something green, like asparagus. 😂 She was so sweet I couldn’t even get mad at her, lol.
Queen has me rolling around on the floorrrrr😭😭😭 I love her so much
2:51 can you stop saying ignorant things like this? It’s not cute or funny, it’s offensive and wrong. Just cuz The English don’t season their peas and carrots to your liking, doesn’t mean that Italian, French, Southern, Spanish, German, etc. food is bland. White ppl obviously know how to season girl😂
"I need meat", "i need sauce", IT'S A BUDGET MEAL
I think two of these ladies haven't really had struggle meals. I've had plenty of beans and rice, and sometimes just rice.
It’s budget meal tho not struggle meal 😭😭
I mean but being able to cook doesn’t mean not having a keeping a budget
I have to say that the first dish was actually much more a budget meal imo. They didn't use expensive seasonings(if any), probably the bare minimum amount of cooking oil and included a low cost protein (beans). I thought that they were on point with keeping it low and nutritious regardless if it was lacking flavor. I don't think $15 is a budget meal either. The first meal bought things that'll last a few days versus spending a whole $15 on a singular portion.
5:08 "ok, it's cold HAha" gets me every time lol
You can tell who actually understands the struggle
The girl with the braids with the Ghetto Girl shirt on....her skin is SKINNING!!!! Dayum!!!💓💓💓
My go to budget meal is a pasta side pack and a long pack of chicken lol and I'll more than likely bake it!
Exactly!! U can do so much from just 15 dollars. How about rice and some chicken. Canned peas.
What even are those things?
@@bcaye It’s a pack of dry pasta w/ flavoring. You only have to add water or milk. Knorr has alfredo, cheddar broccoli, four cheese, etc.
@@vvl3032, okay, I know those but we don't call it that where I live. They aren't very good.
‼️‼️‼️
When the rice and beans lady was giving her critique on how to improve the other meals, I clutched my imaginary pearls 😂😂😂
😅😅😅
$15 for one meal for one person isn't a struggle meal budget lol.
There's definitely a big difference between having 15 for a meal and having to stretch 15.
Swap the chicken for garbanzo beans? Girl BE SERIOUS
Like? 😂
Right 😂😂😂
But again… if you struggling, you’re eating more beans than meat.. j/s…
If you’re struggling you can eat more beans per price of meat. It’s common sense, the difference is the interpretation of budget meal. 15$ is not a budget meal, that’s just a meal, expensive too if you’re not using ingredients from home, like rice and beans.
She may not really eat meat. Garbanzo beans are just protein option
This is the nicest and funniest amount of shade being thrown 😂😂😂
$15 doesn't seem like a budget for a single person. I could make a ribeye and baked potato for $15. I also wouldn't count the cost of a whole bag of rice, or beans, just what you used. My budget meal is rice, eggs, breakfast sausage. About $3/person.
Prices vary upon location. A $15 meal where they are may equal a $5 where you are. Real variables to consider, cost of living etc.
I can't even buy a rib eye without paying less than 15 lol
@@DeityLover Ribeye is about $25/lb. Go to the butcher counter and ask them for a 4oz cut, it's around $6.50. Have to know how to get what you want and not buy the only thing the store offers. (And that steak price is for organic grass fed beef from Sprouts, you could definitely get more for cheaper)
@@kerrina0316 sure but I live outside of LA in SoCal so I don't think their prices are far off from mine. You can straight up get a meal from Panera for under $15 no need to eat rice and beans. You could see their receipts.
I'm not even on a struggle budget and $3-5/ person is about how much I spend everyday. A true struggle meal is eggs and rice for a grand total of $3! Enough to feed 6 people easily.
love the casual classism the contestants show. it truly demonstrates that most people really do not understand what budgeting and poverty is like.
that's a daily meal for me! and i love it! because it's better than soggy canned peaches from the food pantry
$15 is lowkey a lot for a budget meal. I would’ve popped over to dollar tree where I would’ve gotten the ingredients to make spaghetti with sausage, mashed potatoes, garlic bread, and asparagus
I loved the first dish!! A struggle meal, truly is just that. A meal with whatever you have left in your cupboards/pantry. It's not meant to be fancy, it's meant to be edible.
9:08 😂😂😂😂 but we AInt gone get into dat
That’s was funny asf😂
Makeba was just there to eat and I aint mad at it.
I'm shook at how cheap this all was. Their budget meals in canada would probably cost $50 right now 😭
Only the first girl made an actual struggle meal. Clownish behavior from the other girls making a big deal about her not using meat. Rice and beans are staples in homes on a budget. I would've added maybe chicken broth, peppers and onions to the beans but there was nothing wrong with her meal.
Makeba said she needed some vegetables with the rice and chicken. Yet she didn't provided meat nor vegetables with her meal.
And had a whole $9 to play with 🫤😂😂😂
She so funny 😂
when she said she wanted to replace the chicken with beans I just loled
@@AlbertFuwhat's wrong with that? I love beans
Makeba talked about sucky plating like girl you had a spoon of rice sprinkled with beans on top with struggle plantains put around it for garnish. Plz! 🤣
Yes, them bean sprinkles.🤣 She funny af tho.
If we're talking about a real struggle meal, as in that $15 has to last several days: dried beans, rice, and a ton of seasonings from the pantry. Add some chicken if it's in the budget and/or you already have enough rice and beans at home.
My budget meal is chili. Realistically about $10 out of our weekly food budget of $80. Makes 4 portions for my spouse and I, and freezes very well.
-$4: one lb. ground beef
-$2: two cans beans (kidney + black)
-$3: two cans diced tomatoes
-$1: tomato paste
+ Pantry goods: white rice, lots of seasonings, chicken or beef bouillon. Let's be generous and say these take up the remaining $5 for the portions used. Buying the larger packs of beef and weighing them out into freezer bags can bring the cost down even more.
the rice beans and plantain was a real struggle meal. i’d do white rice and fried egg or yellow rice with salchicha for a struggle meal
my struggle meal is sopa de frijoles and it’s as cheap as u can possible get. it’s literally just a bean soup and then u add sour cream, tapatio, and limon. it sounds weird but TRUST. if ur on a budget , u love beans/soup… this the one

Lol I would say I tried Shepherd's Pie and it is very good. Good enough that I make it myself now. However, before my 20s I never seen nor heard of it in my home or the black homes around me and the first time I tried it was from a white person lol.
@@andreablossom3929yup! I watch cooking shows so I knew about it, but didn't taste it until adulthood when my mom cooked it a few years ago lol.
@@andreablossom3929 Because it's originally a british/french meal.
My favorite budget meal is usually a soup, like a nice lentil soup or escarole and bean soup...I can easily make a huge pot for $5 or less and can last days...the brothier the better!
My great grandmother immigrated from Ireland to the US and she made Shepherds pie, quite often and traditionally a Shepards pie is made with ground lamb, ground beef, vegetables including peas, covered in a brown gravy and topped with rich, buttery mashed potatoes however I would love to try this beautiful womans version of Shepard's pie because ground turkey woukd probably be very good and her presentation despite having to spend only 15 dollars, was excellent. She definitely deserved the highest rating and I do love that she tried something different, put her own spin on such a traditional dish and would've loved to try her version

My struggle meal is fried rice. Rice, eggs, and frozen veggies last a while and are cheap but feels like you're eating something good!
Shout out to Souped Up Recipes.
My real struggle meal is a pack of tostadas, refried beans, avocado, tapatio. Stack it up and you can make about 5 servings with one can of beans and two avocados. It hits 😂😂

I could tell by her intro that she don’t got a budget but she spend responsibly I knew she gon keep it real fo sho 😂
As a trini girl I didn't know Sheppard's pie was considered a white dish to Americans. Cause over here it is synonymous with Christmas.
It's from Scotland that became popular in England then it migrated with them to the Americas. That's why we consider it a White dish.
Caribbians outside of the Spanish and French colonies have allot of European meals. especially around Christmas and easter
I’m American and I didn’t know that 😂 I love shepherd’s pie. I thought it was just a southern thing.
@@cyrusfolami898Shepherd’s pie is also a thing in Haiti though it’s not called that
I’m American and don’t consider it as a white dish at all
My struggle meal has become dry beans in the crockpot with whatever spices i have on hand (or leftover bacon grease) or if no good spices for it, just water. Potatoes go a long way a hundred different ways as well.
“LACK OF FLAVOR PROFILE???” Girl bye, you brought white rice and beans 😂 come on now
That shepherd's pie looked great.

0:18 the beads in her hair are so colorful! I love her style
6:50 Useless correction, but that's NOT a shepherd's pie because it's not made of lamb/mutton.
