Week of Groceries for $25

- Hey again, it's good to be back!
So I'm not much of a chef, but neither are many people and I wanted to make some easy, accessible meals for a week with $25 worth of groceries. There are many ways to go about this, but I went with some pretty simple stuff. I'm curious what you guys would buy so let me know!
Also, I do plan on uploading non-food related videos soon, but somehow being poor is so closely tied to food in my mind lol.
My heart broke a little when you said the chicken went bad in the fridge. As someone who often shops on $25 a week, I envisioned making ten, one pound bags of chicken parts in freezer baggies. It is easy to parcel out your meat like this and make it last. You need the addition of at least a large Spanish onion, to add flavor to your foods. I would also add a bell pepper, tomato, cucumber, head of lettuce and a small cabbage, for soups, salads and stir fries, during the week. You can find delicious recipes for soups, salads (Coleslaw, potato, pasta, and veggie) and stir fries, on line. Waste nothing, and you'll be surprised how well you can eat. A small block of real cheese, some pasta and a bag of fresh carrots, would be part of my shopping list as well.
Jeanette Nizza can you make a video please? 😍
Please dont apologize for not getting expensive white chicken meat. I've never understood why Americans became transfixed with white chicken/turkey meat. The rest of the world knows that the dark meat is way more tasty and retains moisture better.
Americans tend to use white chicken meat as a carrier for flavor (same with white bread, noodles, etc.). Americans tend to care about the flavor of the sauce as opposed to the flavor of the meat. While those who enjoy the dark meat like it because the meat itself tastes fantastic. I myself like both...
Most use white because it has less fat than the rest of the chicken.
marcelle gibson because we ve been told that the breast is leaner therefore healthier, I personally buy what’s on sale!!
An old friend of mine from Germany said growing up breast meat was considered the least desirable cut because of lack of flavor. It can taste like saw dust unless it's infused with a lot of flavor.
There's less fat if you're trying to lose weight.
I like to bake all of my chicken on the weekend, split into serving sizes in baggies and freeze. Easy to mix n match for meals.
Some budget tips:
- Don't get shredded cheese. Buy cheese and shred yourself.
- Meat can be very expensive. There are amazingly good tofu recipes you can try (you'd be surprise of good fried tofu is!! And that's coming from a big meat lover). Also, use brown lentils in your ground beef to make more of it without losing proteins or taste/texture.
- Rice and potatoes are indeed your best friends, they are very filling and cheap.
- Onions are cheap and make stuff taste delicious!
- Look for asian recipes; asian cooking is often a lot cheaper than any other type as they use less meat or fancy ingredients (Look for Maangchi on youtube for amazingly easy korean recipes)
- Canned tuna can make for great pasta or patties.
Really great tips, thank you!
FancyFufflyBunny Well she could've got a whole chicken instead of what she got.
FancyFufflyBunny shredded and block cheese are exactly the same price where I live.
Gorden Wood well, you could have made a video instead of not.
FancyFufflyBunny Great tips !
Yes ! Beans, rice, onions and potatoes are your best friends for inexspensive and delicious cooking 😊
Walmart is no longer the least expensive place to buy groceries. I went to buy my monthly groceries at Walmart and I ended up spending more than I spent at any grocery store in the area.
Elizabeth Shaw they will do price matching for anything!! So if there’s a place that sells it cheaper you can get them to match that price!
Alex Nicoles Walmart does not price match anymore.
After taking all the meat off of the chicken bones, put them in the freezer. Then when you have enough bones you can make bone broth. It makes a delicious base for soups.
Bread pudding would make a nice breakfast...just don't sweeten it too much or it would be more dessert-like.
One Eyed Sailors are delicious. Cut a whole in the bread and butter one side; crack an egg into the middle and break it a bit. Flip over to finish cooking. It's a portable egg-on-toast.
Polenta/Grits - cook your cornmeal and top with cheese. Or make a meat sauce and pour that over the cooked cornmeal. (cheese is my favorite)
A crock pot makes meals cheap and easy. You can bake a bunch of potatoes in one. Wash potatoes and put in crock pot on high for about 2-3 hours. Sweet potatoes work, too.
Chicken in the crock pot is good, too. You can cook most of the 10 pounds at once if you have a large enough crock...or use the oven so the chicken doesn't go bad. A piece of chicken for a snack is good.
Deviled eggs or hard boiled eggs makes a good protein filled snack or light meal.
Buy beef soup bones or any cheap bones from the store to make a beef broth as a base for soups. Bone broth is also delicious on its own for a snack or breakfast starter.
Add onion, celery and carrots to soup to get your veggies in, cheaply. Fry carrot coins in a pan with butter until almost done, sprinkle sugar on them for a tasty glazed carrot dish. I love fried cabbage and it's cheap. Simply fry the cabbage (sliced thin) in oil. I'll add some hamburger and tomato to make a fake stuffed cabbage.(don't forget to spice it up).
Nessa Rossini very nice tips...
Yes always make soup from carcass to save money and also very nutritious.
I can tell you have done this before - I do the same things.
Nessa Rossini your one eyed sailor brought me back to being a child but my auntie called it "birds nest" thanks for sharing
I really like the animation in your videos. Very clever!!!
The guy on the oatmeal package lo0oked like he had something shoved up his butt.
One of my favorite budget meals is sliced smoked sausage with fried potatoes, green peppers and onions in the cast iron skillet. It costs around 10 dollars to make and it feeds my family of 3 for 2 days worth of dinner. If you do happen to have extra stuff at home, it goes really well with cottage cheese or fresh veggies like carrots. I assume it would be pretty good with cheese too, but I have never tried it.
“This was my first breakfast...” ohh yum!! “And this was my second breakfast...” oh I like her!!! “And my third breakfast...” three? Oh. This is three separate days 😂
LOL For a second there I bet you thought I was a hobbit 😂
such a cute and informative video. i loved the illustrations!
Do you use Aldi their prices are very good for basic food items. I think their prices are better than Walmart.
I think you did very well. But maybe work in 1 additional item each time you shop to have on hand. Flour, butter & milk to make a basic roux, turn the chicken into gumbo etc. So buy gumbo seasoning. On a budget better to buy seasonings, but no added salt. I challenge myself to cook one meal then turn it into something different later as leftovers. Good job.
Karen Roberton. True my mother would do roast chicken for lunch and the leftover was turned into chicken salad sandwiches to eat before church on Wednesday night. A big cheap cut of roast with carrots, onions and potatoes. Leftover meat can be used in a hearty stew and another meal with mashed potatoes and vegetables. Cook once eat 2-3 times.
Also check out what types of food grow easily in your region! Where I live, I can plant a tomato plant, a zucchini plant and a squash plant for less than 5 bucks and a few hours work preparing the soil, and I'll have enough of those veggies to last me all summer. Sometimes TOO MUCH and it has to be frozen or canned for later use. If you don't have a yard, several types of herbs and small plants like green onions can be grown indoors in a windowsill - and they will add a lot of freshness and nice flavors to your meals. If you don't know what types of veggies to grow - check out your local shops and look on the back of the seed packets. Almost all of them will tell you what zone they grow in.
Getting the oats that you have to cook would free up money in the budget for avocados and tomatoes. And, if you have time to fry potatoes or make hashbrowns, then you would have time to cook oatmeal. I make the steel cut oats, which take 7-8 minutes, and just spend that time making my lunch, putting dishes away, prepping a salad, starting rice in the rice cooker, or firing up the crockpot. I like to stay on a similar budget and make sure I've at least got carrots, onions, celery, green onions, garlic, lemons, cabbage, broccoli, and tomatoes on hand. I might buy three pounds of carrots one week, two cabbages the next, and buy onions and garlic another week, then buy more rice and beans another week to balance out the budget.
Sandra Anderson , very good ideas. Always go through the sales circulars for local stores. I’ve bought 15 pounds of potatoes for $1.50, carrots 5 pounds for $2.00, pinto beans 4 pounds for $3.00, rice 3 pounds for $1.50, cabbage 4 pounds for $1.00, oatmeal bulk for .50 cents a pound. Don’t buy meat if you are low on money. Buy the cheap wholesome foods that will feed you longer.
You did a great job. We can’t use much rice so veggies and beans or little slices of meat can be cheep as well. I have struggled a long time on a small budget. So any new ideas are welcome
you can microwave the quaker oat meal. i put 1/2 cup oats and 1 cup water in a good sized bowl. Microwave 2 minutes.
Don't forget overnight oatmeal. I make mine with Almond Milk and some dried fruit. The fruit sweetens the oatmeal and puffs up.
you can also eat breakfast for supper I happen to love that.
Nice job. I like hitting the eggs, whole chickens (you could even buy a rotisserie chicken if pressed for time), half hams are 99 cent/lb and easily sliced and frozen in small quantities for the entire month plus make soups from the ham bone and the chicken carcasses. In season fruit for 99 cents/lb, bananas, a big bin of spinach, carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, cucumbers are all extremely affordable. I'd also get bread flour and make my own bread for 60 cents/loaf as I do now and for my incredible pizza. I like to stock up on 8oz blocks of cheese when it's on sale for 99 cents and shred it myself, so much cheaper and without the anti-caking agents. Throw in some rice, pasta, canned tomatoes, tuna, a 1lb jar of unsalted roasted peanuts to make peanut butter, pork chops from $1.50/lb, whole milk and some frozen veggies for 69 cents/lb or even less and you're all set. The truth is, all the best foods are really inexpensive. We eat like kings for what folks on food stamps get, which is a little less than double your budget. We usually have ground beef once a week and alternate weeks between pork chops and NY strip steaks...that averages out to $5/lb or $2 per serving. Who can't afford that?
Good job! Cabbage is a cheap and good veggie option. It will last a long time. Carrots too. Maybe apples, depending on your location.
This was actually a really enjoyable and realistic video! I too have accidentally let my giant container of chicken go bad :( Great easy meals that make sense - and awesome illustrations!
If you repackage your chicken into meal portions and freeze them, you won't waste anything. You could also boil or roast, bulk chicken before portioning it out. If you opt for boiling, you can make broth which in turn will give you soup base, gravy base, or both.
Yes 👌👌👌 finally someone who talks REAL I've seen alot of CZcamsrs being all "oh let's eat with a budget' and they'll go and get things that aren't really feasible. This is actually in my budget great advice! 😊 For me it helps to have Pasta and I get a big pack of ground beef and cut it into squares and that would count for how many meals I can make with it I would make tacos or pasta with that. And Potatoes are a great stable 👏 Great video! I lack Walmart but I go to Aldi's they have everything healthy and cheap but I also lack in the veggie department I try to have some veggies but it's not always feasible 😭
Haha thanks! I tried to make it as doable as possible because if I started buying a bunch of fresh fruits and veggies, I would have blown my budget I think. Oh yes! Pasta! A staple for sure. Actually, I forgot another breakfast I like to make is migas: corn tortillas torn up and fried a bit, then adding egg and mixing it all in while it cooks. So good with ketchup/hotsauce/salsa. You can add more stuff too like tomatoes and peppers of course. I'm so jealous you live by an Aldis! lol. I always hear such good things about them. Veggies are definitely good to have, but I have the same problem of you. I like having yellow squash and zucchini when it's on sale.
+Poor Girl's Guide tortillas would be another good item to get. you can wrap anything in it and eat it

I always divide my bulk items that will go bad in individual plastic containers ( from ikea) and freeze them. I stopped using baggies to reduce single use plastic waste and found that I save more money by using containers. I write on the containers using a wax pencil. You can also save any glass jars with lids and use those to freeze things. Just write on the glass with a sharpie which washes off for reuse. Just make sure you leave space for expansion.
Ketchup? You are wifeable.
So, yeah...LOVED the video and the illustrations are awesome. I was really surprised with the amount of food that could be purchased for $25. Keep the videos coming!!
Cook the beans and rice together with canned tomatoes and pepper, save the chicken. Also, get some freezer bags and divide the chicken into meal size portions. Next week you can buy another meat and make
James Briggs She could make chicken chili.
High in fiber with poop emoji hahaha great vid!
The potatoes are great for a quick lunch! Just pop in the microwave with some butter (or cheese make it fancy whenever you have) ✨ honestly I bought a 10LB of potatoes if lasted me 2 weeks an easy meal also is chicken with mash potatoes :) (seeing as you said yourself you didn't use the potatoes enough)
marydotJPEG Well you can make your own potatoes chips instead of buying bag of chips. .
loved this video!
"Chia seeds not ants" haha :)
:D Thanks!
Green peppers are so good with breakfast potatoes. didn't like red peppers though. I cook the potatoes in bacon fat and then add in peppers salt and paprika. so good.
Very informative. Your illustrations were wonderful. TFS!!
I like your handedness in your video. Also I like to eat homemade soup a lot so I would probably make soup. That can last for days. Maybe 2-3 kinds of soup so it doesn't get boring. And you can make bread on the side or muffins or have crackers. I would probably done like you and just incorporate all the different meals together. Thanks for your video.
if you want to keep chicken in fridge a bit longer take out of bag thaw in container of water with lid not alot of water maybe a quarter full add favorite marinades and spices stir the chicken in it..pick a marinade that has vinigar in it or add your own put lid on. set in back of fridge with lid will be flavorful when ready to use but also helps preserve it a bit longer but not real long....just an idea
Very well done video. The illustrations and sound effects were very entertaining. Keep em coming , although some of the portion sizes seemed a little small to me they all looked very tasty. 😎
LOVE your illustrations! They're so charming and cute! I'm super lazy with food (frozen chicken nuggets, toast with peanut butter n banana n a sprinkle of cinnamon), but every once in a while, the skillet and pans will get some lovin.
Fried egg on toast with avocado (if you can splurge) is a really nice simple way to mix up breakfast meals too :D
Beanie84 Omg fried eggs and avocado on toast is the best meal!
Yes that sounds delicious, but unfortunately if you are on a low budget and you are poor, there is no way to afford avocados. At least not in the area I live
great video I would have cooked all the meet up on the first day and the food would have been fine in the fridge for a couple of days or you could have Frozen it already cooked. I would have had the stir fry with the chicken and rice. I would have also made a chicken vegetable rice soup which would have also made things last longer and you can throw whatever rest of the leftovers you have in the pot
That’s why I always buy a bag of frozen chicken breast unless I’m going to a cook out and bringing something to add. Just take out what I need, defrost and marinade in a ziplock bag and keep it moving. No waste.
Do you have a 99 only, or Dollar tree in your area? I bet you could stretch your $25 even further. 99 only especially has all kinds of beans, rice and potatoes. I love their brown Jasmine and basmati rice. And the beans are cheaper than what my local Walmart sells them for.
Banana and toast is the bomb
Fun video! I eat a lot of brown rice and black beans. Making them (and most anything) in my rice cooker is sooo easy as I am so not a cook! I am seriously amazed at all the things one can make in a rice cooker. On the rice & beans I add shredded cheese melted on top (@FancyFufflyBunny - never thought of shredding my own cheese!! Thank you for that tip!). I add basil and a touch of organic apple cider vinegar - great stuff.
Another of my staples (made in the rice cooker) is pasta. My grocery almost always has a "Buy 1 Get 1 Free" on pasta and canned spaghetti sauce so I stock up on those. I also add shredded cheese, basil, and apple cider vinegar (just a touch) on that as well. I need to start branching out so I'm watching videos on budget meals.
SonshineLady. I love beans rice and cheese. I normally get pinto beans as they are cheaper than black beans. I also add salsa to season it up. I occasionally make black bean soup from scratch, I think 🤔 it’s a weight watcher recipe and it’s delicious, with a little cheese and sour cream or avocados.
if you cut out the chicken and gotten beans or lentils you would have spent a fraction of the price and been able to get more stuff, you can typically get 1lb of lentils for less than $2.50 you can get a can of beans for less than a dollar, or go super cheap and get dry ones.
You're right--chicken was a general idea but legumes are definitely cheaper! Admittedly I only just started experimenting with lentils, farro, and other legumes and grains (I come from a household with extremely repetitive cooking) but it's definitely something to put great stock in! I love this type of advice on my videos because when people fill in the gaps in the comments, people will have more well-rounded advice to go off of.
One of the best budget food for a week vids. Thank you. Very well done.
Yes. I always buy my meat in bulk and wash it then seperate it into individual ziplock plastic baggies of two or three pieces. When i'm ready for a meal, I just pull out one of the baggies and let it thaw out for an hour or two and boom ! Easy dinner !
Quaker Oatmeal is so good ! I can eat Quaker Oatmeal at any time of the day ❤
Cute video! Bummer about the wasted chicken.
Hi Faye Faraldo here, try lemoncrincles all lower case. I just found her again using that. Good luck, she is great and very thrifty.
If you cooked all the chicken when you got home, it would have lasted all week. I do it all the time. Plus when I do this in the crock pot, I have the wonderful broth to make a dish with, (usually pasta and cream). You can de-bone the chicken which makes it so much easier to throw a quick and easy meal together.
Save all your veggie trims even onion paper parts and save all your chicken bone put all in freezer til ready too use. When ready put bones & peels in stock pot cover with water,cook 3-5 hrs til bones are soft. Strain off broth. I would make,chicken& dumplings ,chicken& noodles,chicken pot pie,fried chicken, bbq chicken,chicken shepards pie,chicken stir fry,sweet& sour chicken,chicken& noodle soup,and broccoli medley soup with a white sauce,chicken& rice casserole. I buy all veggies the first week and blanch them too freeze for the next 3 weeks. I buy 1-2 heads each cauliflower & broccoli,carrots,onions and 10 lbs. Potatoes. They last the hole month.
That way I can buy meat& fruits the next few weeks. Have extras on hand. I also can the broth for winter months. I save scraps til I have a gallon bag,then boil bones again. You will never have too buy broth again.
Fantastic ideas!!
Throwing away food that has spoiled is the biggest loss of money. I bought a kilo of carrots for one dollar. Only ate one. Could have bought that one for 50 cents and thus saved the 50 cents I had to throw in the trash. Buying perishable items in bulk only saves money if you have a large family to feed.
carolineleiden or if you know how to can or dehydrate.
I'd have cooked and de-boned the chicken for easier use for quick meals. Made a chicken veg soup. Maybe bought a smaller amount of chicken and added some milk and butter to the list and more frozen veggies if possible Made granola with the oatmeal for some breakfasts. Could have made potato soup, a fratata, banana pancakes, bean burgers, you did well on the type of food you bought. But it could have lasted much longer than a week for only one person.
you should make more videos ! this is amazing
Would love to see more videos like this. Also, check out your local food pantries,. Free food!
Chicken thighs don't dry out as much as breasts, and at least where I am the legs and thighs are much cheaper than breast. Maryland pieces (the thigh and leg still together with bone and skin) are a great alternative to a whole chicken for roasting and generally cost about $4 per kilo.
Making dal with red lentils and toaster heated flour tortillas is another good basic Indian cuisine dinner. Making dal is easy: first make basic masala paste then add rinsed lentils and water directly. Masala paste is just... some cumin seeds on a sauce pan, dash of canola or olive oil, let the seeds start jumping a bit, added thin sliced red onion, let them get translucent, add some salt and a half teaspoon of turmeric powder, let the turmeric roast, add some garlic and ginger to round out the key spices, then add some chopped tomato and top off with red pepper flakes for sharpness, can use one of those mashing tools to pastify right in the sauce pan, then after a beat add the rinsed lentils, slow cook until desired tenderness and add a cup of water or so more; takes 10ish min. Lentils floof up to a ton of volume.
That masala paste - can be meal prepped and fridged, and then added as a paste to other dishes throughout the week, like scrambled eggs even. It’s super flexible and the core ingredients have a small marginal cost.
I really like your illustrations :)
I use Ketchup, salsa, hot sauce what ever is in refrigerator.. looks delicious
Buy the 10lb bag but when you get home bag them into 2 serving sizes. That way you cook 2 meals at the same time.
I always keep bread and eggs in my fridge for quick and easy breakfast
I would probably buy a big bag of carrots and chop them up in soups, get a bag of onions, head of broccoli and a couple bell pepper and make my own stir fry. I Definately shop Aldi for veggies and Warehouse Discount Grocery for meats. I want to coupon more. I have saved $35 to $45 off, but I will not buy a product if I was not going to buy it, unless it is free and I like to buy only what is on my list and if I can get a product cheaper without a coupon I go no name. But, I do buy my oatmeal from the Amish locally it is about $6, but it is such a huge bag I can split it with my daughter in lovelies and it is so delicious and easy in the microwave :)! So basically $2!
Great video.
And I too, being broke, have let my chicken go bad😯, not on purpose... So, um y e a h, I feel you girl😳
P.s. I think the illustrations are very clever.
Sheryl Lynn I'm glad I'm not the only one! My problem is I am 73 years old and not in good health. When I get home, I am hurting so bad and so exhausted, I don't feel like separating the meat. Later, I unfortunately forget about it until it's too late
You know, "pantry essentials" have to be purchased, too. Far too many people claim to be showing how to live on a tight food budget and then have a bunch of food they don't count.
Often the most expensive too. A large bottle of olive oil costs 10 dollars for instance. Must have butter coffee etc.
@@AnnaLVajda If someone is on a tight budget, they will not purchase olive oil.
Taylor i agree ! It’s not a one time purchase. You’re stocking up your pantry so that you are able to make cook better tastier and healthier foods on the daily and in the long run. It’s an investment but well worth it. I recently moved to Korea and was having a hard time cooking cheaply at first but I knew that was because I was lacking ingredients to cook with that are a substantial part of my diet. Once I started stocking up on all my spices and oils and basics, it’s just so much easier to create everyday meals on a whim which are yummy and healthy . It was a big purchase at first buying things I needed but I won’t be buying those items for a really long time ! And definitely won’t be buying them all at the same time again! Like a jar of rosemary thyme olive oil and other ingredients will be lasting me so long. You also don’t have to get them all at once. Just slowly by slowly until you build your capsule pantry that enables u to easily create meals
I think I'd be fine with just chicken/eggs/bread/potatoes/maybe some ham and cheese.
It's actually better for you & cheaper IF you tried "bin" foods/beans, oats . . . etc. Sprouts can be a great, inexpensive store, if you buy dried foods from the bins and produce on Wednesdays. 😊 Just a suggestion.💕
You know what im going to follow you. The drawings made me laugh. The oatmeal guy was my favorite.
Second breakfast! Merry & Pippin would be proud.
I really like the style of the video :D your little illustrations make it really interesting :)
I got a recipe for the potatoes, it's actually a korean side dish called algamja jorim. There is a video made by maangchi about it.
all you need is baby potatoes (or just small potatoes) soy sauce, garlic and corn sirup or honey. It's really tasty in my opinion :P
Also I buy grains and noodles in big packages because they are non perishable and it costs less per lbs :D
Aw thanks! I enjoyed illustrating it, although it did make the process to create the video much longer. Oh my goodness thank you for enlightening me on this. I think I've had those potatoes as a part of the banchan before the meal and didn't know what they were called but I loved them. I'll definitely give it a shot! And you're right -- bulk buying whenever possible is a real life-saver. Not even just with food! I need to renew my Costco membership but I'm a bit poor right now lol (who would have guessed).
I went shopping yesterday and I bought thighs and breasts. When I arrived home I left the chicken in the car, what? So I was afraid and threw them out .That really helps with my food budget. I like catsup with my eggs also. Thank you for your help for us singles.
The drawings are so cute!
Not ants” about the chia seeds I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants! You should be a comedian!
I like being on budget too & good video. 😉🍀
Great ideas
I recommend you make your own bread. It's much cheaper and taste better. Also whole chicken is better cuz you can use the gizzards, legs, & thighs into extra meals and cheaper. Coming from experience.
I did learn a lot from your show thank you very much..
You're not going or believe this but go to about 1:45|or so and the plate with the eggs, potatoes on a plate has a great condiment!!! Haha Haha must be south side huh?
Thanks for telling me that you did not like great value oatmeal . i am slowly testing out offbrand foods
Loooooved this video. Such cute animations! 😊
I loved everything you recommended . I actually eat most of it except potatoes but now I will buy them. Thanks for sharing.
I buy a lot of our food at our local 99 cents store. Fresh produce, condiments, rice, pasta, beans, soups, teas, milk, eggs, cheese so many healthy choices all for less.
momof2 I've had many meals of rice or pasta. It is cheap and goes a long ways. The food bank hands out a lot of pasta. I just put no name ketchup or mustard on it to add something cheap and affordable for taste.
My family eats eggs and potatoes with ketchup too. Only time I use salsa is if I make breakfast baked potatoes, but I use your cream with the salsa.
I buy a big pack of chicken and break it down into freezer bags, so I can use what I need
How about macaroni and tomatoes or Spanish rice tuna gravy on toast
And don't forget ramen noodles for lunch
LOVE mac and tomatoes!

Thanks for this video! you can post more for $25 for kids!
Great video, love the artwork!
Nice vid!
I agree w/FancyFluffyBunny about changing-out your items once in a while to save money as well?

I love ketchup with my eggs 😊
I meant to say you could freeze it too and have some variety in your weekly meals.

You did great
Where is the peanutbutter on the toast?? 😂😂😂 I love to slather my toast with the whole suggested serving size. But seriously, great video!
Could of made chicken salad sandwich (of course without lettuce) & some french fries for dinner =)
Cute and helpful videos 😊❤
Utilize gravy... The packs at the store are super cheap. Can put that over the rice.
Nice video. I'm on a very tight budget too and eat a lot of what you were eating. I'm a new subscriber. I also agree that some CZcamsrs eat things that are not affordable so it was nice to see your realistic video. Thanks.
Cool video, I'm a fan!
