I'm a senior citizen, who has been cooking all her life, and yet, I am learning new things from you. You sure know a lot about cooking for your young age!
I too learn tons from this channel! I have been watching a new TH-cam channel called The Thrifty Food Plan that helps me out. She needs more subscribers so we can all stretch our food dollars.
Same here and I'm 76 😮😂

Yes ma'am I agree 👍
I keep a well stock pantry and a extra bedroom to hold emergency food and over flow. IT IS SOOO IMPORTANT. I was at the store not to long ago and everyone was panic buying, I think it was a storm coming, I stood in line so thankful I didn't need to pick up anything for it. Peace of mind knowing you're set for anything. I've been stocking up for years.
It sounds like you may have an irrational fear if you think you need an entire bedroom full of pantry items just in case.
Your so right!!! We all have our own little ways of doing it and they all work!!! Me if I notice sales I buy the extra few ...I don't have a particular plan though nd rarely coupon.
Omg! I never would of thought to just use an extra bedroom for food storage! Love that idea.
An old refrigerator that no longer works and cleaned out of course makes a really good storage for pantry non perishable foods. I also have a box of baking soda in refrigerator and freezer so far months later all is good. My husband came up with using the old non working fridge for a pantry we have a small house with a full basement it's in our basement. Much better idea than putting it in the landfill.
Between you and the young lady who does Dollar Tree Dinner videos, I eat pretty darn good! 🎉 Thank you for your time and effort to help us all out.
You are so welcome!!
Agree watch both also have a great week
Me too.
Yes ma'am I watch both of these ladies. Although I relate more too Brooke for sure. I like Rebecca at Dollar tree dinners.
Brooke your meals even cheap ones are creative and tasty . Ty
Fried rice is best when u refrigerate the cooked rice over night.Then it's so easy to fry up then.But that's the secret to good fried rice
Hi Brooke. A little tip to take your grilled peanut butter sandwiches to a whole new level, instead of having the sliced banana on the side, put them in the sandwich AND add a little drizzle of honey. The heat from grilling them will soften the bananas if they are a bit on the firm side, and make them taste creamier and sweeter. Oh my goodness, it is the food of the gods, I promise you will LOVE it.
Much love and respect to you and your beautiful family, from South East England. x
Mmmmm so yummy!!!😍😍😍
Dip it in a scrambled egg and milk mixture and cook it like french toast
Try grilled PBJ with strawberry jam and bananas dipped in milk egg and fried in butter. Your toes will tingle. 😊😊😊😊😊
Elvis liked the bananas in the grilled peanut butter sandwich
I've been stockpiling for a while. It has helped me stretch my food budget. It also helped me from stressing about not having food to eat.
Its a comfort isn't it!!! And I know I can always make a care package when a family member runs short
If you added green bell pepper to the beans it would be cowboy beans we make lol
I Absolutely Love you. You are unapologetic, Sweet and down to earth and your kids is adorable. Love the way they are so eager to try your food. Lots of Love from South Africa.
Welcome from California USA.
Hello from Kentucky USA
Grilled peanut butter are awesome. I also just toast bread and spread peanut butter on it and it melts just like the grilled peanut butter. So delicious!!!!
I've never had one my family and myself must try these. ❤
Brooke
My target is expensive for food. You did good with $25. Not sure I could do that. Grilled peanut butter sandwich. Yum. I recently made a pork shoulder and it made a ton of food. You are amazing with feeding your family.
I totally agree with you about Target!! It’s WAY TOO EXPENSIVE to buy food there!! The entire store is WAY beyond my budget. 💕🙏🙏
That's how I feel about Publix. Unfortunately, there are 4 Publix within a 5 mile radius but not another store except Target.
We love grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. After we cook ours we top it with a little powdered sugar and it's amazing 😍 taste like fair food ❤ love you girl you're an amazing human thank you for all your recipes and tips
I like honey roasted peanut butter I bet that would be good to
Dip the sandwich in an egg and milk mixture and fry it like french toast. Works great with cream cheese and jam.
Omg ! While you were spreading up the pork, I was seriously salivating ,almost drooling ! My family loves pork..I have learned alot about seasoning from you so budget meals don't feel poor Thank you !
Everything looks really tasty. Liked how you made the baked beans. They looked yummy. I make grilled peanut butter all the time. I usually add marshmallow whip to them. I call them grilled fluffernutters. Take care and thank you for the tips and tricks.
Those beans looked great! They would have been great as topping on baked potatoes
I love roasted carrots. I like to put the carrots and potatoes together on one sheet pan. I season with everything bagel seasoning.
Even something as simple as parsley works. I love roasted carrots
@@AnnaJones-r7iYes very tasty.
Ahh, those grilled peanut butter sandwiches would have been even better with the sliced bananas IN them! (and a drizzle of honey!) heavenly!
I am 100% with you on having a stocked pantry! When I’m getting low on an item I put it on my list (I use the notes section on my phone) and when I see it on sale I stock up on it. I do the same with meat, I have a deep freezer for meat and etc. Keep an eye on your grocery stores! My local Weis marks down their meat on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s, you can stock up on marked down meat, use freezer bags and stash in your freezer for when you need it. I love your videos and you always give me inspiration for a meal if I don’t know what I want for dinner (I try to make a meal plan but it changes with our moods lol)
When I was pregnant I made grilled peanut butter with banana marshmallow fluff and chocolate chips.
I see where their kids get their reactions from. They nod and go it’s good. It’s subtle but after seeing how dusty responds I’m convinced they get it from him. You can tell they love your cooking, words not needed body language says it all. Stay safe in the upcoming possible storms. In in VA and heard TN may be getting some weather warnings.
Grilled peanut sandwiches are one of my favorite foods weekends at my dad's as a kid he always made them for us
Love how you make lots of meals on a small budget. I love having a stocked pantry and have filled my freezers when I find items on sale.
I shop online with Target pickup. It save us time and money. If you only need 1 item no problem they will bring it to your car. They also have crazy promo. There in store name brands are good😊
Do you know what I find simply amazing? Watching Dusty eat without getting food in his beard. I'm amazed.
There is one pantry staple which is cheaper for me at Target! The good and gather canned pineapple is less than $1
I love sweet baby Ray's BBQ sauce.
I love your videos and I love your hair because this is how everybody looks when doing serious kitchen stuff. Real life!!! Love it!
I love when you use Pinto Beans. That’s what my Mother raised us on.
I would love to see an emergency meals week that didn't use beans and rice
Those bbq beans look so good 🤤
If you put a damp dish cloth or paper towel underneath the cutting board it won’t slip around
Ask your grandma if she remembers buying tomato paste for 5/$1.00. Yup 20 cents each. Debi in Vicksburg, MS. 🥰🥰
I remember it being 4/$1.00. Boy I'm old.
I remember tomato paste 4/1.00 and tomato sauce for 5/1.00. Bananas for.10 a pound
Debi, I'm in MS too. Food prices are definitely up here in my little town but not as bad as some of the bigger towns and cities in other states.
I do remember for .25¢ a can
I remember and I'm only 38 yrs old. Stuff used to be way more affordable. Aldis had canned veg fir like 15-20 cents each in 2008!
Dont know about Target in your neck of the woods but 25$ at my Target wont even get you a snack let alone a few meals.
Good luck Brooke❤
Really???
My late mama used to grill peanut butter and jelly with banana sandwiches.. it was good!
Heavens to Betsy, you rocked it at Target !! Approved menu too.
Ok, I was confused for a minute because I had sworn I watched this already. 😅
Glad I'm not just crazy.
Please! Please! Do a video about filling up growing boys on a budget. Meals and snacks that fill them up because my three boys eat so much!! (And we homeschool so they are home all the time).😂
If you can, invest in some chickens. High protein...boiled eggs make great snacks
your videos are truly a "job aid" for poor people like me ❤ me and the hubby try to eat vegan for the last decade but I still love to make the favs we grew up with but with alternatives. love your videos for new ideas for supper!
Baked potato stuffed with the bbq🤤
I must say I didn't think you could do it shopping at target but you did it great video.
Pantry items, so important.
Brooke if you are having trouble breaking up cold rice just take a potato masher and press down on the rice. Easy as pie, takes zero effort❤❤😊😊
Hi Brooke
Thank you so very much for these excellent meal ideas it helps so much to have food list to go shop for . Thank you for helping me achieve this from the depths of my heart.❤
I'm binge watching today 😂
Love this series..
Idk if people would find it "preach-y" ??
But to do this AND have a small garden even just 1 raised bed, spring, summer & winter vegis..they could stretch $$ so much further....
And or..do the budget haul and be able to pick just 1 item from a prep pantry per meal! Or both??
From the budget haul you could have left out the..lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers?? To buy more meat, cheese, butter, milk etc..
And ALWAYS have a big, constantly growing herb pot/s!
You'll pretty much always have carrots, potatoes & onions!
Tomatoes all summer..peppers..
Just a thought to show..after this series is over..what's possible with just an Itty bitty garden and ANY pantry in reserve 😊
Preachy!!!!
Maybe a week that does not use rice and beans. Those are the mainstays of every cheap week of cooking. I'd like to see if someone can do it without
We grow a garden every year an early mid and late garden works great for us in zone 6 in Kentucky. We've have even done container gardening in the past it was very successful . Either way we have enough for us and to can and freeze and dehydrate and also give fresh garden food away as well. We really enjoy gardening.
Lol @@florencerobinson7714
@BBodziak Brooke has done that no beans or rice I have for myself and my family as well sometimes. I will gladly eat beans and rice it's better to me than junk foods and it's good.
Another idea for your last dinner put a lil chili powder in your beans. N Bake potatoes n pour beans over potatoes
I have had grilled peanut butter sandwiches and they are good...have you ever had a peanut butter and jelly omelette? It's good too. I too keep liquid smoke on hand all the time. I've been married 55 years and can't remember a time when I didn't have liquid smoke in my pantry. You do a great job with these extreme budget challenges.
You did s good job with your choice of meals I also use the Knors all the time as well as flavoring in dishes it makes a nice cup of broth for sipping very comforting.
I’m definitely doing that next time I make a peanut butter sandwich
Your family makes me smile. Thank you
Those beans look bomb ❤ adding it to my menu next week
you should make banana chocolate chip peanut butter bread, the loaf would last a while for breakfast and cheap❤️
Target has a lot of great deals. You just need to get on their schedule of sales. Toilet paper, cleaners, etc… lots of money back or off and 5% off with their red card.
Oh I have worked at target and with all the inside hacks I know I get all the groceries for free. So for me it's money/life saver
@@marky7802can you share some of them on please?
I'm so bad for spices I LOVE THEM!!! I have 3 shelves of spices and my home made spice blends....when my kids and now grandkids too kids get out on their own I stock them with pantry items like spices, oils, baking powder, baking soda, vinegars,
Impressive how you stretched that 25.00! 👍👍👍
Struggle meal for me when my sons were young peanut butter and jelly quesadillas people laugh until they try it! 😋 i love a little bacon 🥓 and pb on toast myself. Havent been to Target 🎯 in years since before they had groceries thats a long time 😂
I do a LOT of my food shopping at Target, although I buy my produce at FoodMaxx and some food and cleaning products at Dollar Tree.
a baked potato with the leftover pork n beans would have been good too!
I'm new to ur channel... been here like a week now... I send ur videos to my newly pregnant married daughter... well married a year and due in 3 months. Anyways... what I do is compile everything at either Walmart or Target (now) and have her do a grocery pickup, and I send her the corresponding video...
Money is always tight when ur just starting married life, especially with a baby on the way... she lives in Georgia and I'm in Arizona so this is a great way for me to do something for them that makes me feel like I'm saving them money and I'm also teaching her with ur ahhhmazing videos.
You should do a series for young newly weds on a tight ass budget... ❤
I love the idea of ordering grocery pick up for your daughter! So thoughtful!
barbeque sauce at home- ketchup mustard pancake syrup mix to taste pepper or dash of vinegar if you like- I never buy it.
Thank you! I am enjoying your videos it is giving me ideas and helping me stretch my food budget.
I know I commented on this video and must have forgotten to hit enter. Excellent meals. My goodness. My brain. lol... Be blessed always, Brooke & co.. xoxo
Did you know that rubber bands are great to use to keep bags of leftovers closed in the freezer or clothespins will work also❤❤
I like to mash the potatoes and put the beans on top. I also do this with rice and chili.
Kylen is sooo adorable!
Pantry items everyone has, I buy my spices when I see them on sale and depending on the item, I will buy a lot. I use a lot of paprika so I will buy it by the gallon jug at a box store. No one add pantry items to the cost of the dinner!
The gal who does Dollar Tree cooking adds the cost of any spices she uses except salt and pepper
You are so correct. A well stocked pantry and spice cabinet makes all the difference.
You’re a wizard in the kitchen! I love, love your videos!
Your Outlander shirts got me hooked on your videos
That’s grilled peanut butter sandwich elevated put the bananas inside and add cinnamon sugar on the outside when frying it lol ❤
You make rice like i do. The steamer is great. Try adding sausages on top for that extra rice flavors. Umma taste...
Ive never been to a Target with groceries that is awesome!
This is an order video I know but hopefully maybe you’ll get a notification that I sent you that message is it popped up on my feed that’s why I was watching it. I love your channel. Remind you that target is expensive! I am gone grocery shopping once because I had no choiceand wow, it is an expensive store altogether and they think they’re cheap. No, no no no they’re not so I think you did well.
Hiya from Lt McBride the Navy Nurse. Been away for a bit... just back home from a quick 3 week Navy Co tinting ED class. gREAT JOB at Target. One of my most FAVORITE stores. Oh, I get in trouble in there.😅 Just a question. Did you say they "overcharged or charged wrong, and that's okay"?? Girl, you should have marched up to customer service and told them!! Bless you. ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼PS. I love you peanut butter sandwich. It reminds me of elementary school yrs ago!! 🥪
Just wanted to say… thank you so much for your service and sacrifice to this country. It is greatly appreciated. Have a very blessed day.❤❤❤
Thanks for your service 😊
Condiments from convenience stores, lunch lunes and restraints can help with seasoning. I knew a girl that put all her saved up duck sauce to brine her turkey. I very seldom buy soy sause.
Great use for left over pulled pork👍🏼
❤ I love u n ur boys honey! Thank you for sharing your amazing food content and ur family with us!! ❤🌷🌞
Pink salt is good. It’s called Himalayan salt. It is supposed to be better than sea salt. You can’t tell the different from regular salt. It is good.
You are so awesome and so is your family! Love watching and learning! Do the Elvis and put the banana on the peanut butter grilled sandwich. Also smash the carrots put butter and sugar brown or white kinda like you do with sweet potatoes. Could you please make goulash using tomato paste?
You are amazing at putting meals together for your family and good stuff!!
grilled peanut butter sandwich: I bet it would be good on a George Foreman grill...dts/usa
We do peanut butter on toast looks yummy
I grew up on peanut butter sandwiches luv them
BBQ looks delicious 😋 Have you ever ate BBQ on fried cornbread Mmmm its delicious ❤
I love your message at the end .I see more people Hungry and people with signs that they are hungry here in South Florida.
I just made the BBQ Chicken sandwich and fries for my other half.....
And it was for sure a big 👍
You are awesome Brooke
I love the knorr bouillon thanks to u i tried it a jar goes a long ways. I use the chicken and beef and recently tried tomato one yum all are great.
The pinto beans and pork looks really good
OMG those pulled pork beans look amazing! Why didn't I think of that before?!?!?! I think I would have baked the potatoes and put the beans on top, like a loaded baked potato 🤷♀Thanks for all the recipes!
Hi Brooke all your dishes look really good. Had a thought the burnt end hot dogs would be good in those BarBQ beans. I also buy a lot of hot dogs pork n beans & I always have onions. I love making beanie weenie's quick & simple throw it all in the instant pot for 30 minutes. SO YUMMY😋 My instant pot is my Best Friend and by the way I LOVE YOUR INSTANT POT I watched all your instant pot dishes so MORE would be GREAT❣️ Keep up the good work will continue to watch you from SC
So happy to meet you 😊
You did that ❤
Show how you can add a couple things every shopping trip to build a pantry as your feeding your family. Only use what you buy on a budget . Keep it going for a few weeks . Week to week you can build a pantry. Show them how it’s done. ❤
Fantastic meal ideas! Thank you so much 💓
You are amazing love watching you 😊
When I was little I’d make open face pb&j in the toaster oven… pb on bread with dollops of jelly or jam. Delicious 😋
To making the bean dish go even further, add pealed and cut into 4th potatoes, whole eggs 🥚 they will cook in the crock pot, it will be amazing with the meat and spices, the potatoes absorb all of the flavors and it’s a fabulous way to use extra eggs. And a great protein!
Hi Brooke try putting a paper towel under your cutting board so it will not move when you uses it❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤Glad to see you using pantry items.
Can do a lot more.
