We are gearing up to do a food ministry through our church. Itâs our responsibility to pick up a bag from the food pantry, come up with dinner menus for a week, purchase additional necessary food and deliver to a student to take home. This is exactly what I needed to see. Thank you!
That is a cool way of serving!
What a fantastic idea!
Bless you for this!!!!
Such a beautiful idea! I do this for a few neighbors, but I can only do 3 days. But they appreciate it
Awesome idea! Most people just don't know what to do with what they have! Recently used leftover mashed potatoes to make potato cakes.. which served as a hasbrown substitute for breakfast for dinner!
Yes please keep doing the 20 Ingredients capsule meal plans as it is really helpful especially in the economical climate and eventually people will have a large list of recipes without food boredom! Four seasonal capsule meal plans would be helpful, thanks for all you do!
This would be a great idea for vacation. When you stay in a condo with a full kitchen and need to be able to cook delicious meals without buying an entire pantry.
Please make more versions! I love this idea!
Thanks, Aimee! I'm already thinking about the next one. :)
Mindy, I say this with so much affection: you nerd! I love that you did this project. Your enthusiasm about this concept is so delightful and infectious. I think this is an amazing idea! Along with budgeting, I think it could be so useful in training yourself how to use food you already have on hand so that you don't let it languish in your cabinets and fridge. If people are stocking their kitchen with the same limited number of ingredients most weeks, and you know the ingredients can work together to make over 20 recipes, it's encouraging to use what you have on hand before it spoils. Learning how to bring ingredients together like you do in your pantry cooking videos is really skill that some people might have a knack for, but it can be learned with a great demonstration like this one. Congratulations on completing this project! I hope you feel really proud about what you've accomplished.
Ah, thanks so much Stephanie! I really appreciate the encouragement. I tell my daughter all the time, "nerds rule the world" đ so I definitely take that as a compliment! And yes, it's the teacher in me that gets excited about a good lesson plan. LOL!
Yes!
Yes please to more capsule menus. Weeklong or 10 days plans would be awesome.
This is exactly what I needed! Planning on saving as much as I can to afford nice summer activities with my kid! You're a life saver!
I'm teaching basic skills at the library once a month. We are learning about meal planning for October. Capsule meal plans like this are so helpful for people just learning. And by changing the pasta to rice I have a dozen different meals easily. Thank you.
Great idea! I see so many crazy dinner meals on the internet with one time use ingredients. And you took us back to the basics like my mom cooked my whole childhood đ„° thank you đ
Thank you! That was my idea. I kept it pretty simple with this one with lots of meals my mom made our large family and that my family also likes. :)
I love this idea!!! I would be very interested in seeing more of your capsule ideas in the futuređ
YES!!!!! Exactly. Love this
I would love one with vegan/whole foods. But these are great ideas!
Yes! These are great ideas but would love to see whole foods and more fruits and vegetables.
This is AMAZING! If you could ever do a vegetarian version (no meat) that would be awesome! Meat is so expensive by us right now.
This is a fantastic idea!!! Iâd love to see another, maybe a series! Also Iâd love to see how you do your own cream of chicken đ
Thanks, Brittany! Iâm already working on another. đ
Cream of soup is very easy to make. 2T each butter and flour (I use rice flour because I need a GF sub). Melt butter in pan and whisk in flour. Cook for 30 seconds or so. When all bubbly, whisk in 1-2 C milk depending on the consistency you want. Season with a little chicken bullion powder and salt and pepper to taste. For mushroom soup sauté some chopped mushrooms in the butter (I usually use a little extra butter) before adding the flour. Then leave out the chicken bullion.
@@cheriellis9215 Thank you so much for this. Have been trying to learn how to make both of these. We cut up mushrooms and freeze them so we have them on hand. Yay!
This is JUST what I needed! Living on a fixed income and have been desperate on a way to minimize my grocery bill but maximize my meals. Thank you for the code! This capsule ebook is a lifesaver!! â€
Probably my my most favorite CZcams video ever !
A menu capsule ! How brilliant !
This would be a wonderful and practical gift printed placed in a binder with some of the homemade seasoning ideas for a gift !
More more more of these please Mindy !
Yes! Two weeks of cheap and delicious dinners. Please do more of these. If I could shop every 2 weeks and have a plan, that will be life changing. We actually have every ingredient on the plan except sour cream because I ran out.
If you have plain yogurt, it should work instead of the sour cream.
Awesome concept! Would love to see a low carb capsule meal plan. Thank-you for all the great ideas!!!
I would love to see more of these! If your family eats cabbage, thatâs an ingredient Iâd be interested in seeing you include⊠it is very healthy and often on sale for very cheap, but as a single person itâs very stressful to try to use an entire cabbage!
Cabbage is a perfect staple for every household - even for singles. It is so versatile and you can easily use it instead of salad, put it in stews and soups or as a simple side either raw or fermented. Fermented it keeps forever :)
@@laifnow My main weakness when it comes to cabbage is that I donât like coleslaw, haha. I have accumulated a number of good cabbage recipes at this point, but I am always looking for more to ensure variety. Which is why, if Mindy is interested, Iâd love to see her take!
I absolutely love cabbage, and as a one-person household it's become a grocery staple. I use it in place of lettuce all the time -- on sandwiches and in salads -- and I love that it's crunchier, more flavorful and more nutritious. I also routinely toss it into soups and other hot dishes. I always felt bad, though, if I couldn't use up a whole head or bag of it before it started to turn, but then a couple of years ago I learned you can just stick chopped cabbage in the freezer. You don't even have to cook it first. Defrosted, it's perfect for adding to soups or other cooked dishes with no loss in flavor. So now I have my fresh stash in the fridge for salads and sandwiches and my freezer stash for soups and other hot dishes.
@@freefoodchef7939 thank you for the freezer tip! Also you can use whole leafs as wraps if you leave them ten minutes in salted water to soften :)
@@laifnow You're very welcome, and I appreciate your tip about how to soften whole leaves to make wraps. I love wraps, but have normally made them with those big tortilla type wraps, and then it makes too bulky a sandwich for my appetite. Plus cabbage wraps wouldn't have to be just for sandwiches, since they could be used for baked cabbage rolls. Yum! đ
They need to offer this as a class in high school or college!
Love this. How about a meatless meal capsule plan?
Oooh, girl. This ebook is awesome for me. And I love the style of the menu planners. Thank you!!
I love this concept! I want to see more. I would also like this as a series with different weekly meal plans from the same set of 20 ingredients.
I would love to see more of your capsule meals.
Thanks, Paula! Iâm already thinking about the next one! đ
I really canât understand why you donât have a MILLION subscribers!! This is great info
thank you!
This is awesome! This is how I shop every month!
Iâd love to see you try a vegetarian one! Or maybe one specific to each store like âaldi capsule meal planâ or âwhile foods capsule meal planâ!
Love, love, love! When I got to the 8 minute mark, I thought an ebook would be great, then you announced it & I cannot tell you how excited I was! This is so perfect, I have these exact ingredients stocked in my home at all times. I know this will help so many people. I would love to see more of these.
Thank you Mindy!!!!
Thanks so much for the kind words, Angel!
I'd love to see more of these as well! This is such a huge help, and a very different way to present ideas! Thank you so much for all the hard work and planning that I know went into this!đ„°
It reminds of something called chicken poppycosh or chicken "paprikash". A childhood staple in a German-American household.
Such a great concept! Would love to see more videos like this! I love that you are using the same ingredients again and again throughout the week because it not only makes it affordable but also great for meal prep. As always, I'm super impressed!!
LOVE THIS! So helpful! Yes to more capsule meal plans and Iâm so excited about the cookbook!
I love the idea of a capsule meal plan! More videos please!!!! â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž

I would love another capsule ingredient cooking list. This is fantastic! Really helping us stick to a budget to help us save for increasing costs at the holidays.
Love this concept! Itâs great to have in my back pocket when Iâm too tapped to meal plan for the week, I know if I have these 20 ingredients I can plug and play with your guide from there!
