  • This is my Asda shopping haul, I bought a lot of the Just Essentials range and I used a £15 discount code that Asda sent to me in an email. I spent a total of £66.59 and I got a huge amount for that price, so this is a good frugal shopping haul. #costoflivingcrisis #prepping

    I am constantly amazed at how low British food prices are. That haul would have cost double what you paid here in the US. Just amazing.

      im in the UK and considering the US is so large youd think the food prices would be cheaper because you could grow more???strange eh, take care❤

    I dehydrate all sorts of frozen vegis for Winter soups! I make a mix of them and store them in a large jar to add to soups and stews all winter. It's so handy! You can also dehydrate frozen potatoes. Just rehydrate and fry as normal.
    Dehydrated tomatoes taste like candy! I like to slice them, put them on the dehydrator rack, sprinkle with Italian Seasoning and then dehydrate them. Amazing in sauces and on pizza!
    And you are correct, freezers go out. Dehydrating ensures they stay fresh and take up so much less room. It's why I can store bought hamburger and sausage.
    Stay safe out there! Stay vigilant, stay aware, and keep adding to your pantries!
    Much love from across the pond!

    BTW, I would kill for a can of Corned Beed at $2.29 (1.90 there)!! Our nearest Walmart has them for $3.54, which is 2.94 there.
    And those canned potatoes! Holy moly those are a steal!

    I've been super lucky then because I have been able to buy tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. Very grateful for that! You should check out Morrisons Savers Instant Mash. 28p for 120g. It only made up of 99% potato flakes and rosemary. Not so many ingredients. Simple whole food.

    Idahoan mash is lovely. I use it often. Great all round but I use it mainly for cottage pies
    I can never get the pineapple pieces - always sold out
    I’ll give the chilli con carne a go
    The frozen lasagne is lovely
    Try the tinned potatoes in an air fryer if you have one. Taste amazing
    Their chicken in white sauce in a tin is great for making pies
    Asda is also great with their Rewards card/app and if you have the Blue Light card you can save even more

    Great haul! Have ASDA lifted their limit of three items max per essential range now? Idohoan mash is really good, especially the garlic one. (If you’re going past Poundland, ibuprofen and paracetamol are three boxes of 16 for £1, which would be another little saving) 😊

    • @rootofavalon3841

    Frozen mixed vegs are one of my favorite easiest things to dehydrate. I have dehydrated many onions and one son comes in and complains of the odor, but it doesn't last! Onions do freezer burn and do not last forever, plus, yes, freezer space and not relying on
    electricity is definitely a plus, plus, it will be easier to share, if need be.
    I am still overcome by the differences in prices there.
    I am not sure what 'soft cheese' is in containers like that, if it is not cream cheese. Vanilla extract is so expensive here.
    Lovely haul! I wish we had ASDA stores.

    • @rootofavalon3841
      @rootofavalon3841  Před rokem

      I believe the the soft cheese is not allowed to be called cream cheese because it doesn't contain any actual cream.

    Great haul. What I don't get is the chicken and vegetable soups are cheaper than the tomato ones. It looks like the fish has gone down in price as well.

    • @rootofavalon3841
      @rootofavalon3841  Před rokem

    What kind of frozen fish is in the boxes please? I'm only used to cod or haddock. I've had a shock on how much Battered/breaded cod and haddock costs now. At those lower prices I should take a gamble and start trying them to see if I like them.
