[@bethanmartin7710]

A challenge where you don't do a food shop and can only eat from what's already in your fridge/freezer/cupboards for a week I think could be interesting! (This is basically my life every week before pay day 😂)

[@frascadesalsa]

Yes that'd be interesting. Meals in our house get pretty inventive before payday. Lots of tons, spices and dry goods

[@Veronica-fc9td]

Yes we have "purge week" often to save money and clear out freezer and cupboard and sometimes we purge the whole house and use up little hotel shampoos, etc.. no spend weeks.

[@redmeens]

YES!!!!!

[@mini-ch2wn]

I'd like to see a week of being low-budget but with minimal "effort" cooking! It can be harder on a budget for people with disabilities, students, and other people with less ability/time to make meals by chopping veg, making sauces from scratch etc. I'd like to see the effect that has on weekly costs, and also see some creative ideas for lower-effort cheap meals! (edit: i think this would also be a nice way to show that for some people buying more pre-prepared food is necessary due to cost, time or accessibility. even if it comes at the cost of more packaging. as you've mentioned in other videos, there's a big pressure to reduce our waste. but if you're not able to, you shouldn't feel guilty. especially since disabled people in environmental activist communities can feel bad for needing plastics, it'd be nice to see more awareness for that!)

[@whereivecame5506]

Yes this will be good!

[@rachellouise4766]

yes thank you for this comment!

[@KawiLover250]

A student with only a stove and microwave!

[@mjking9019]

As somebody with fibromyalgia and arthritis and bursitis in my hands, I love this idea. Sometimes chopping veggies is too much for me. I've started using more frozen veggies just to avoid chopping.

[@georgiadaviespupil]

Same. I find myself just not eating if my fibromyalgia is falling up because I’m in too much pain to get up and cook a whole meals

[@Arina-xl9bm]

Please do Lidl next! I just moved to Ireland to study and find it difficult to continue eating meat-free, the grocery stores are so unfamiliar😩Also I miss your videos on your vlog channel so much, it would be fun to see some similar content on your main channel! Congratulations on getting a dog, what a cutie😍

[@ciaradonohue8064]

Hi from an Irish vegan! Aldi has some great options, soya yogurt, milk, dairy free butter and all sorts of frozen treats like vegan sausages and sausage rolls and veggie burgers. I don't have as much experience with lidil but my friend tells me that one of the scones from the bakery there us vegan😀. Tesco also has great options in terms of free from mayonnaise, cheese, chocolate, milks and all sorts, they even have ready meals or microwave meals (these can be a bit pricey though) good luck and hope you are enjoying life in Ireland!

[@Arina-xl9bm]

@@ciaradonohue8064 thank you!😄

[@ZeVioloniste]

Ugh i feel you 😫 moved to hungary last year and i’m still not used to grocery stores here (+the fact that nothing is in english).

[@Arina-xl9bm]

@@ZeVioloniste That sucks, I hope it gets easier in time😕KZbin definetly make things easier though! I need all the vegan food-inspo that I can get now that I can't rely on my usual go-to meals back home🙈

[@Arina-xl9bm]

Blink S thank you, I will definetly do that!😊

[@jmarie1647]

I think would be interesting to see one of your normal weekly shops to compare that to these budget shops and another where you try to spend the least amount possible but you can go to multiple stores to get the cheapest of everything

[@aimemaggie]

"alex is having crumpets" the most british thing ever said ever

[@lucie-gracerichards8997]

Honestly I just love the vegan weekly budget meals. They are giving me so many ideas as a new uni student💗

[@trogdorthe8th]

LMAO, the close ups after your punny joke, I almost fell out of my chair. Charming video as always!

[@cathrinagroiss604]

I loved that you incorporated what's in your pantry/fridge/freezer. It's more 'life like' I think, in that we can all be more conscious about using up what we have, and just suplementing it with the shopping. It's more budget friendly, more environmentaly responsible, and allows for greater variety. So thank you for that, it's creativity and a bit of effort thatmake the budget go further

[@i.e.presents638]

I would love to see simple bump ups, like what we can add to prepared foods (canned soups, frozen meals, basic salads) to make them GREAT

[@demiwilliams1201]

I'd actually like to see you do a proper food shop, with some expensive meals in there as well. P. S what is your favourite place to shop? xxx

[@Megan-ts7rv]

Me too, I'd like to see what they'd eat if they didn't have to budget, if you could just buy what takes your fancy that week! 🙂

[@elizabethmcintosh6722]

Something about calling it a ‘gardeners pie’ is so charming. Love it.

[@juliatheinternetuser]

Ooooo I'd LOVE to see the luxury one! I'd love to see you getting very adventurous and gourmet and trying some recipes you've never made before!

[@RenLuuk]

love love love your food photography. It is so much harder than people realize - so amazing job. the ASMR was a stroke of genius. Of course I am the biggest fan of your ebook, so am in love with your vegan mac and cheese. I also add loads of things into it - spinach, grilled red peppers, artichokes - whatever I have left in my fridge, basically. It is the perfect catch all. This video is classic Madeleine Olivia - natural, healthy, open, honest and just fab. Lovely to see puppy as well xx (oh yes - the ads KZbin inserted into your video were about plant based food!! Yahoo!!! You have no control over that, but thought you would be pleased to hear)

[@kayhentsch]

would LOVE a week of "fancy" food!! would be great to see some ideas for hosting dinner parties.... could you do a full shop and prep for dinner party? maybe minimalist decorations too?

[@RobBrown1991]

You could cost the cupboard ingredients (not buy extra to throw away) as if you had bought them. Just to see how much that is helping.

[@fiammy1991]

This type of videos, in addition to the weekly budget shop, are my favourite!!

[@mangafreak09081]

The ASMR part was so good!! It was so soothing to listen to!

[@saraseefeldt39]

Yes to all of those shopping "challenges"!

[@jessmullens5191]

I'd like to see you cook outside your comfort zone - cook foods you never normally cook. And maybe only shopping from an Asian grocery?

[@TheLittlePixiexox]

Don't stress about using up things in your cupboard, no point creating extra waste or spending extra money! Looks delish

[@alexandratracey8252]

Yes, please! Bulk! FROZEN would be outstanding! I am in love with Roxie. More Roxie, please.

[@anitakovacs7568]

Roxie's sniffing on the sofa 🥰 Remember, the best meal has dog hair in it! 🐶

[@rubiebarker5152]

Have just started uni and made the dive into going Veggie so this is so helpful! X

[@KyanneSummer]

I love your content and you guys being human and genuine but above all you guys are just so damn calming to watch and inspiring its a good combination ✨

[@musicfrmhearrt2460]

Finally I was excited to see this

[@Cyrena]

That ASMR was DELIGHTFUL

[@mollywatson005]

Honestly the most helpful and entertaining videos on KZbin ❤️❤️

[@pernilleep]

I love these videos 🤩 I would like to see a ‘empty the cupboard/fridge/freezer challenge’ and another where you extend this challenge to a month, in order to run out of the staple things in the cupboard ☺️

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Congratulations Maddie and Alex on your new pet. This was a delightful video. Thank you❤

[@jessedwards3537]

My favourite series on youtube

[@RenLuuk]

Yeah Alex!!!!! So so great to see him back on here!!! Yaassssss .....

[@phyliciajoykloes]

I really like your content. The footage of this video I appreaciate too. I like that it's real, and it makes sense for you to use up your ingredients. Btw, Roxy is adorable! The paw on you part was too cute.

[@veronika452]

I love your cooking videos 😍 Your ideas, cooking, edit 😍😍😍

[@margotlyautey7482]

I hadn't watch a video of yours for so long and oh my gosh, you voice is so comforting. I love watching you cook :)

[@theclumsyprepper]

I'm definitely making gardener's pie tonight, I've loads of veg (homegrown) to use up. Thank you for the inspiration 😊

[@A14BYT]

Sooooo inspiring!! Love this type of video! Also love how real you always are x

[@phoebe261]

I'd love a luxury meal week - it would be so much fun to watch you guys indulge! Maybe you could try a cuisine challenge - like italian one day, middle eastern the next, scandinavian etc?

[@Ashtoriassecret1]

That would be fun! Yes! As much as I love the budget videos (cuz I really do), id love to see a indulgent or just a regular week of meals

[@janie7185]

The zoom in on the gulp made me chuckle. Also your pupper is freaking adorable

[@jaymo107]

Love these videos! Always like getting ideas, thanks! :D

[@ABlackbirdsBooks]

Rozy is the sweetest! I can't wait to see more of her! Congrats on getting your pup :) Even though I live in a different country with very different prices, I always love these budget videos for inspiration! Keep 'm coming! I'm not sure if you did this in the previous shopping video, but I was just wondering if you'd want to share your meal plans along with the shopping, so that viewers can decide whether they want to cook along with you for the week or something? That would definitely make you a meal planner for loads of people by the way haha.

[@ohpinkiepie]

I loooove that you're using up the food you have ❤️ I keep arguing with my mom because she always wants to throw away leftovers... I save them by eating them the next day 😅 I love meals made with leftovers

[@numivis7807]

Yayyy Alex is back, so happy about it

[@lmjwoww]

I’d like to see a going all out vegan shop - maybe Waitrose or via Ocado - definitely a luxury shop would be so interesting! And then we’d see more fancy snacks and desserts 🧁

[@viktoriascholl5580]

the editing is AMAZING

[@hoaian9586]

Hey I've subscribed to your channel for so long and I absolutely love it ❤ always support you Madeleine. Its so chill to watch your videos, keep going girl ❤

Pleaaaaaaase Lidl 😍 i love this type of video... When the shop one gets out, i'm waiting for the cooking one every dayyyyy! I wish it never ends...

[@JessMurfin]

I would watch videos like this every week even if it wasn't a challenge, just love seeing your normal everyday meals

[@faerietxles]

the editing in this had me dying 😂 props to Alex! (Also I’m super excited to try the gardeners pie, looked so cosy and delicious!)

[@kristbjorgh.th.4875]

Should I actually be watching a video on KZbin right now instead of studying? Definitely not. But am I on a real big budget and absolutely love Madeleine's videos? Definitely yes.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Go back to studying!!! Hehe

[@mol9842]

This channel is a GODSEND❤

[@nellydoyley3815]

Yes! The co op would be interesting and id like to see that. I also like the idea of doing the challenge where you have a lot of money to spend to buy the ‘luxury’ vegan foods. Also Roxie is such a cutie and looks so soft 😍

[@ccphysio6578]

Love this series! I like your idea of seeing the difference in a £100 budget, do you feel less or more healthy after, is it nicer etc. And it'd be cool to see a vegan zero waste weekly shop. How much more time and money do you spend to remove most of the packaging etc!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

I did a low waste one already 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4nOfZudrdyHp5o

[@caitlinglover2636]

The vegan “junk food” and bulk food prep videos would be fun!! And yes, I absolutely miss the Alex and Maddie channel, glad to see both of you guys again 😊 Do you think you’ll do vlogmas? I do understand that it can be quite intense, so no worries if not, just curious.

[@melc9737]

[@catherinehaley1715]

Vegan convenience food would be so fun!!

[@TrueBrytt]

I feel like seeing what you have left over before a shop if you could come up with meals with that it would be nice. Like a pantry challenge. But you can still buy the basic staples maybe make a budget for that

[@Shishmish6]

Could you maybe make a video of meals you can eat if you have IBS? I used to eat so many beans, no I have no idea what to eat 😭 Love this series! Still watching the video 😊💓

[@TheMamzellemanon]

YASSS. I want to go vegan but my IBS makes it really difficult. 😭

[@kickatat]

i would love to see a normal weekly shop for you guys also week of pantry/fridge clean out where you eat only what you have in your cupboards. i thought it would be fun for you to do a week shop at an asian market also

[@MsKatastrophenBarbie]

Bulk food prep would be great!

[@martineo9638]

Maybe just split the 2, do budget hauls (I love those haha) and budget recipes, I love seeing prices per portion :)

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Great video and recipes. It was ok to buy green lentils instead of brown because it helps you to taste them to see if you like them and vary your diet. I eat red, green, brown and speckled lentils because it makes the recipes more interesting.

[@veggiesaurus5834]

I would be so grateful for a video on very healthy but freezer suitable bulk meals. Me and my sisters are currently carers for our Mum and we want to make her super healthy hearty meals but it is really hard to keep up with the care and cooking from scratch 3 times a day, so frozen meals would be such a huge help!

[@DruDruia]

Please, please continue making these kinds of videos! I find it so hard to find cookbooks or recipes that just contain easy everyday ingredients that I KNOW and that I can easily just go to shop for at ANY supermarket. Instead of hunting down ingredients from exotic shops or niche markets like most cooks or cookbooks suggest

[@mjking9019]

As someone who had a budget most of my life, I do love your budget meals. That said, I always took into account what I had in the house already to use. Anybody on a tight budget wouldn't buy more pasta or garlic if they still had lots left at home. I don't see it as cheating.

[@giulygiox]

The bulk food prep idea is genius! Please do one "bulk food prep for the winter" (meaning that you prep things that are going to last for a couple of months), it would be awesome!! :)

[@shubhiagrawal6500]

Hi there :) I've been following your channel for a while, I recently tried your butternut squash soup and oh my God it tasted amazing. My flat mate loved it too. Thank you so much for sharing these super simple recipes ❤️❤️ I have been loving pumpkin spiced latte too but yeah it gets heavy on the pocket to buy it every single day. Could you please share which pumpkin spice mix you guys got from Amazon. It's so strange that I was wondering about making the same at home and I chose an electric milk frother which is in my Amazon cart. Can't wait to make my own coffee at home. Lots of best wishes, have a great week guys ♥️♥️

aw! so happy to hear about the pooch 🐶 looking forward to seeing your new arrival 💕 also happy to hear you share your thoughts on alcohol. i didn't start drinking til i was 22 and that was because until that age the drinking culture i was around felt very destructive (hello uni!) but now i find it a nice treat and a good way to bond with people - there's pros and cons right?
