💵 27 HEALTHY MEALS FOR $99! 🤩 BUDGET MEAL PREP W/ FRUGAL FIT MOM AND MARRIAGE & MOTHERHOOD 🥩 KETO

[@KetoCookbooksCorner]

*I'm amazed by the variety of nutritious meals you can create without breaking the bank. Thanks for sharing these cost-effective and healthy ideas!*

[@singsongvideolover]

Jen, you knocked another one out the park!🏆 It's so nice to see women supporting each other rather than that petty competitive junk. I'm so here for it!🖤♀️

[@youmakemehappy7]

I really appreciate your comment about even cooking it with the oven instead of the instant pot to make it more accessible for everyone 😊

[@FoodieBeautyStan]

I agree. I am struggling to buy food and pay bills. Most people have an instapot and an air fryer. My heat is broken so I’m using expensive space heaters. Nothing left for appliances. My gas fireplace broke too but I managed to fix it for a bit of heat a few hours a day. Most rich youtubers don’t understand that a 70% pay cut during covid has removed some of us from middle class life.

[@G3brenda]

frugel fit mom is awesome!! Love this collab!!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Love you Jen! So fun!

[@lorig.7127]

Money saver: you can regrow those green onions.! Using the white end and a tiny section of green- place in a clear glass or jelly jar. Cover white area with cold water. Place by a window. They grow a few inches per day! Cut off amounts as needed to cook with. Replace water ever few days. It will continue to grow for months. You could also transplant to a flower pot when roots grow long. I always grow the ones stair from the bag from Aldis!

[@kristinsmith4375]

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing! Im going to try this.

[@sherriholcombe5428]

Loved these collab videos with you Marriage and Motherhood,and Frugal Fit Mom! Thanks for the meal planning and meal ideas😃

[@jerrieanderson2245]

New here came from Christine’s channel for this collab. Your recipes are so accessible and food I would eat. Thank you for showing this can be done at a very reasonable price. Now following.

[@Rachel-ow6ij]

I’m 27 and me and my partner are struggling to learn how to cook while going through inflation. These are stressful times. My parents and grandparents have always been poor, but I wanted to help us be able to eat better and healthier now that I’m grown. I have struggled so much to find things that are healthy and aren’t gross and bland. This video gave me hope.

[@bnbtemple5936]

What a fantastic bunch of meal ideas, Jen! And that you did these 9-10 on so little and still had the leftovers you did is mindbongling!!! Can't wait to emulate! (So glad I "found" you via Christine.). Barb

[@jillygirl2024]

I purchase fresh Spinach to use on Sandwiches, in Quiche, Salads or cook it up . I also freeze it. A bag if fresh is more than frozen or canned but allows for more versatility

[@evem4876]

Jen u have such a comfortable voice it's very calming, one nite I fell asleep listening to u OMG !! I've never done that before Lol.😂😂😂

[@modestlambchop]

I cook for two people on a budget AND for weight loss so I love seeing videos for not only cheap meals, but healthy meals. I shop almost exclusively at Aldi as well since healthy options are cheaper there. So this video was fantastic, thank you!

[@wendyomalley7673]

Loved this! We can do healthy eating on a budget! I always thought it was so much more expensive to eat healthy. These ideas will help with my low spend February. Thank you again for these great videos!

[@marlene4]

WOW great job. Reminds me to get my zoodler out and use it. Also thanks for the marinara recipe. So much cheaper than buying already jarred. Plus you know exactly what’s in it.

[@venessatalbert4602]

You're a BEAST with that chef's knife girl! I ain't mad at you! You go girl!

[@susanr791]

Awesome meal shop and prep - all look delicious! I appreciate you doing this and gives me meal prep/recipe ideas.

[@jackistemper1419]

I really enjoyed this budget friendly meal prep .... lots of great ideas and watching you prepare so many different things gives me lots of ideas. You cook with such ease and explain everything so well . Thankyou for that !!! ❤❤❤

[@kellyrachelle571]

Hi Jen! I wanted to pop in and tell everyone that I bought the Zyliss knife set for 50% off. It was $39.99 and I got mine for $19.99, which is a steal for these knives. I used mine for the first time last night to cook dinner and I love them!

[@gingertunstall7739]

I love that you are doing healthier, lower carb foods. So good for you.

[@cherylm4867]

Jen. You are so amazing. Can’t believe how well you did here! I will definitely check out the other two videos. Thanks for sharing your great ideas. Love it 💕

[@Jen-Chapin]

Thank you Cheryl!

[@tammymyer5347]

All the food in this video is basically my weekly food menu except for the zoodles I have never been able to get into those. Isn't it amazing how healthy one can actually eat on a fairly tight budget? Loved this video!

[@traceycosta9196]

As always, you inspire me so much. Such a great idea about roasting up leftover vegies to have on hand. The zucchini n capsicum with salmon looked so good, it’s on my meal plan for next week. Love your videos🤗💕

[@lilrustee]

Woot! Woot! I love it when you do keto/low carb options. I do keto keeping it very low carb, moderate protein, high fat, and these were some great ideas! I have Greenpan pans and I love them. Used them for years. Thanks again for the fabulous video. I already follow Christine and you, and now I’m off to check out Jia!

[@RochelleLJones]

Omg I love it. Thank you so much for sharing this Co-lab. I learned a lot about cooking cleaner. And a few tricks you used that can help me in the kitchen. :) Thanks again for the wonderful video.

[@marcypatterson3878]

I love the fact that you do collaborations!! I’m playing around with a KZbin channel , but you have inspired me to do more with it!

[@kellyacton421]

Another great video, with great ideas! I love that your mails are not only healthy, but they are simple and cost conscious!

[@evem4876]

Ty for sharing these healthy great meal's . Gonna try a few this wkn 🌻🌻🌻

[@dapheneabraham3573]

Hi my beloved Jen I am so happy to find your channel I learned so much from your video today I'm looking forward to learning more on the keto diet

[@blubuttrfly10]

I loved the recipes. And thanks for the tip on using the salad spinner. Definitely going to start using it. And the tip with the slicer. I never thought about slicing the egg twice. I use the slicer for strawberries too. And last, I subscribed 😁

[@moniquewilliamson6916]

Love watching your meal preps. You inspire me

[@mishvanzant]

It looks so easy to do all that stuff when you've sped it up AND then I watch it on 2x speed hahahaha!

[@Iheart2cook]

Wow! Well done little lady!! You make it look easy. God bless 🙏🏼❤️

[@lorig.7127]

Use that egg slicer for your strawberries too!

[@argeliaanchondo9907]

I watch all three collaboration love the content. Keep them coming to e recipes and the budget love love thank you so much. Hope you can keep doing this. I tink is such a great idea.

[@stephanielang2027]

Impressive! Thanks for the ideas and showing how it can be done

[@rhondaking1998]

I love all 3 of you! So excited for this.

[@stephaniejoyce6896]

I'm actually really impressed with how many meals you got out of that amount of food. The thing to note though, is that this is for one person, correct? I'm feeding 6 on a regular basis and often a few more. So, that would be $600 ish for me to do this. When you look at the quality of the food it's worth it, but for someone feeding a lot of people, not inexpensive. With bulk buying maybe that would help costs. Not criticizing! Love your videos! Speculating how to make it work for me.

[@Leanne808]

Steph J - Rejoicing Farm I agree! This ends up being $11 per day, per person. I do Keto and spend about $200 at Costco every 3 months, and then $10-20 per week for the stuff I need (or happen to catch on markdown that I can throw in the freezer)

[@jujube2407]

My husband and I eat keto... my kids get a slight tweak for them... we will have pulled pork in a bowl...or over cauli rice...they have theirs on a bun...and then usually on a homemde pizza crust the next day...we go thru a TON of eggs.. they LOVE any egg casserole or egg muffins i make... the green onions i put in a glass of water and they regrow 5 or 6 times before turning yellow... so "free food" shop the sales... plan from the loss leaders... for me I go to 2 or 3 stores and JUST get the sales... usually the front page stuff... and our monthly budget of 5 is under 500... id say usually 250 to 300 with a 400 expense for a 1/4 cow from.a local farmer every 4 or 5 months... so i avg thst out... we planted a bunch of planters this spring and had "free" salads all summer... i charged out grocery budget on month 1 for all the seeds and produce...

[@cmmartinez330]

Such a huge difference in food prices from 3 years ago

[@patriciabarnhart1886]

Love your voice, Jen. Easy listening.

[@ashleychambliss3395]

I would love to see this again with today's prices. However I think it would be great to have you all do the whole $99 so we can see a bigger variety of meals.

[@suedraws4998]

New subscriber. Came from Frugalfitmom. So excited to be here

[@Jen-Chapin]

Thank you and welcome!

[@FrugalFitMom]

Thanks!

[@mrslynnwhite]

Holy Moly, so many amazing options! Yum!

[@sharkd0g]

I love your videos I look forward to them every day 💗

[@ketokaydon7463]

Nice keto haul/meal prep! I'm loving this collaboration!!

[@josettefleming485]

I loved your video. You always have great ideas and your presentation is on point as usual !

[@HaleyHinman]

Look at you flexing with those knife skills! Everything looks fab. Can't wait to watch the other videos from the collab. For dinner tonight, I made those pizza stuffed peppers you showed recently and they were a hit!

[@Hey_peeps]

Love Jia, you guys are my two favorites. So excited to check out frugal fit mom!! Thanks for the ideas!!

[@ludakalas2689]

Great healthy looking meals. Thank you for your various preparation tips. They're very useful.

[@christinec1217]

You can also not chop up the ham for your egg muffins and use the slice of ham to line the bottom of the muffin tin. It kinda gets crispy and is so good. But make sure to spray the pan

[@JesusGirly88]

Jia sent me here and I am so happy. New subie ☺ Love the salad spinner idea for produce, will use my tomorrow

[@Jen-Chapin]

Thank you and welcome!

[@texasoutlook60]

Very nice job Jen! As usual when you cook it all looks good. Blessings ~Sidney

[@jaclynislas4015]

Been loving your budget videos lately!!!

[@CatherineShoresHMN]

In my mind, I thought you were going to do 3 of the same for each meal. This is much more challenging. Kudos!!

[@lorivoss3953]

How come everything you make always looks so good??!! It never looks like that when I try it 😂 Thanks for another great video Jen!!

[@beckiepatrick6900]

Hi. New here. Following the linked videos from Christine’s video. Super impressed with the amount of food left over and the variety in which you were able to come up with...a well rounded variety that most people like. I found in the other gals video (darn her name is escaping me ...Gia maybe) that she came up with a few pantry type items that not many are going to like unless they are familiar with. Although they we great items to try if you never have! Anyway, thanks for the time and energy spent on coming up with the meals, definitely something I will use. :)

[@Jen-Chapin]

Beckie Patrick thank you and welcome!

[@MichelleGayScienceTeacher]

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@joybowles1453]

I love this video..simple ideas. But exactly things we like to eat !, always enjoy watching you cook!,

[@donnajakubos4249]

Love any hot pepper jellies on baked salmon, your recipe looked good too.

[@douglasvilledarling2935]

You are so amazing. #knifeskills I love it all. Next time you roast your veggies add some green beans. I like cooking my green beans how you normally cook asparagus with olive oil and garlic. Bacon on top would probably be good too. I use to cook them on the stove with bacon or ham. This changes it up a bit

[@christine3507]

Thanks for all the great ideas! I’m so jealous of your knife skills... gotta work on mine!

[@alextasy82]

Love love love those Aldi frozen green beans. I steam them in my old school Tupperware microwave steamer and saute with butter and garlic. Yummmm

[@lauraurbain5007]

My Oxo salad spinner arrived today from Amazon! 🙂

[@beckyhelwig498]

Thanks for the video. You make it look so easy. Have a good week.

[@rowoods652]

Love this collab. Came over from Jia’s channel.

[@Jen-Chapin]

Thank you and welcome!

[@bonnielane9188]

I have'nt watched yet but I'm so excited for another video from you!. Just watched yesterdays.....I'm in bed early for a 4:45am alarm. LOL So tonight is a double feature! You are my number one YT channel. (hope that did not sound stalkish) but when I click on, and see a video from you.....first click! Hugs girl!

[@Jen-Chapin]

Bonnie Lane thank you so much!

[@FrugalFitMom]

Great. Now I'm starving...

[@bookwyrmn]

This is why I watch hers and your vids while eating or when cooking lol

[@MA-mb3zz]

Jasmine Tracy me too 😂😂

[@nat_marie9401]

Thank you i loved it!!!

[@letycantero]

Hi! I love your recipes! Only one thing though. Raw spinach actually act against your body when you are on keto. So I would suggest to include them on other cooked recipes.

[@lorig.7127]

As a single lady, I never thought to use a Pattie to supplement in a sauce! I must try that!

[@bdwriter1957]

Egg Dash works great for perfect eggs, no guessing. thanks for the suggestions. great video

[@TheAutumnHeather]

hello! love budget preps! giggled over the T&A produce.. that's from my neck of the woods in Arizona!

[@TheAutumnHeather]

oh love all these ideas!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@jenniferpinkowsky1610]

That was fantastic!!! ❤️

[@citogal]

I feel like zoodles are not really a good replacement for noodles, but I do think they're good as a side dish, like sauteed with butter, garlic, salt & pepper. You could do a chicken Parmesan, using pork rinds or almond flour as breading, then serve with marinara and zoodles on the side. Generally at restaurants, chicken parm comes with noodles on the side.

[@michellewalters4807]

citogal I actually now prefer the zoodles to traditional pasta when I make tomato meat sauce. This is fresh ones though, the frozen ones were not great

[@citogal]

@@michellewalters4807 I'm not saying they're bad at all, I'm just saying they are not noodles. Different mouthfeel, different bite, different taste. It's like saying tofu is the same as steak. Glad you have trained your brain to love them in place of noodles.

[@jacquemcarthur9783]

Loved this video...please do more...💞💞💞

[@countingdownkate1832]

I loved this! Great idea

[@christinaberglund2332]

Love getting notifications from you !!!! 🖤❤🖤❤🖤

[@debsdailydish4040]

Love watching you prep and cook. I think YOU should create a KZbin course! 😉😉

[@melissachochard4242]

Thanks Jen!!

[@JennyOSunshine]

Thank you for the low carb options! I can’t just watch regular food videos all the time anymore because that’s setting myself up for temptation. Ugh lol

[@janettilley206]

Great collab!

[@LivingInTheMomLane]

Lots of great meal ideas! I love Aldi!!

[@roses609]

Great healthy meal

[@jillygirl2024]

Great lunch ideas

[@lola_incarnate]

I really thought food wont stick to those silicone muffin cups. I'd have a hard time if you didnt say to spray oil on them

[@vnickcolvin4971]

I thought silicone cups were non-stick

[@JennyOSunshine]

I thought they were nonstick too but some of my egg bites needed a spoon to get them out. I’ll try the spray next time!

[@blancarangel7076]

You have very good ideas

[@theskinnypot]

I love this video. I will try some of them for my family

[@karentester931]

You did awesome!

[@auntcookie9163]

Aww I love Jia,

[@taylorb4255]

Love this

[@butterflyinflight85]

Celery seed is really good with Egg Salad! One of my kids HATES onion. Everytime he would see me use it he wouldn't eat dinner. Then I figured something out. It's not the flavor of onion he didn't like, it was the texture! lol So I either dice really small or I mince and cook them lol As long as he doesn't see it or feel it he doesn't seem to notice lol I'm all for draining your meat but I think the residue left in the pan is great flavor! lol

[@debrasedgwick4697]

My sister HATES onions, but everyone else loves them. So my mother came up with the idea that she would use Purple onions instead. Since my sister could see them, she could pick them out. Win/win.

[@miriamsepulveda4821]

Yes I enjoyed this video.

[@murphy81775]

Jen, I wish you were my mom and would make all these for me! I would be so healthy and fit lol Great video.

[@pammieleger6659]

Great video ..thank you for sharing

[@gloriousgemz2653]

I absolutely love the video😍😍

[@gloriapeel6887]

Very nice meals

[@MissouriPrepper64052]

Ty for te healthy type meals that r also low carb :)

[@leeanncappiello3277]

Darn! ....... no Aldi’s near me! I eat low carb, because I’m a diabetic. Love all the ideas for low carb, affordable meals. 😊

[@gennyjones87]

Lee Ann Cappiello try Sprouts, the 99 cent store, or Whole Foods 365(way cheaper than the norm).

[@leeanncappiello3277]

Genevieve Ferguson-Peña sprouts opening across the street soon! Thanks!

[@Nina_DP]

Hey, Jen, I keep meaning to ask ... I see you have Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking prominently displayed on your counter. Would you consider doing a video or videos cooking from those cookbooks? Kind of a more classic, less kitschy take on your vintage cooking series.

[@Jen-Chapin]

Nina D yes I would love to do this! I need to read the cookbook first!

[@douglasvilledarling2935]

Great idea. Like the Netflix movie. Sounds like fun

[@AguaMineral78]

Where can I find the mayo packs? Love your videos.

[@Jen-Chapin]

Hyvee, Walmart, Aldi, Trader Joes
