Thanks Brooke for the shoutout and all the help you provided. Love you so big. Couldn’t have done it without you.

[@rachelcarey9369]

She is amazing!!!

[@Sadies597]

Brooke, you are so creative with your budget meals. Thank you for this series, as I am starting a low-carb diet. You are so up beat😂❤

Subscribed right away once I saw aunt Vickie has her own channel!!! Woo hoo!

Love you Aunt Vickie love your channel it's delightful

[@kaykrausman8012]

Those are chicken backs. The two redish cavities in each one is where the "oyster" would be, which is the most coveted part of the thigh/back area and of the entire chicken. The backs are great for soups😊

[@ohiofarmgirl3384]

I secretly eat the oysters and my family doesn’t even know it exists😂

[@theresarogerssimpson1280]

Hi please explain to me about the oyster what's it look like in a chicken back?

[@theresarogerssimpson1280]

[@KrystyneY]

What is the oyster?

[@Homegrown_Hillary]

FYI I totally think the pork sausage would have worked in a teriyaki dish! We just call it “egg roll in a bowl” 😂

[@leashy1204]

Exactly! I agree!!

[@PurpleReign1401]

Totally agree

[@PeggyMeeter]

Brooke, you amaze me with the meals you come up with on such low budgets. Makes me think outside the box on meals I now fix for hubby and I at 80 years of age. Thank you !

[@KuntryShellybean]

Dear Brooke, I woke with a heavy heart this morning I never watch these these type of videos as I was searching you popped up so I clicked, you remind me of so many laughs I had with my sister, she is no longer here with me she went to heaven and my heart is broken it will never be the same she was my best and only friend... Just wanted to say thanks fora smile on my face today I needed it.... Btw your cooking is great! I love the dollar tree! Thanks your neighbor in Chattanooga TN

[@ZenobiaDecrespin]

A humble bow to you Brooke you are a genius blessing in my life. ❤❤❤❤❤ love yall so much. I can't believe I'm not caught up yet I watch probably 5 of your videos most days. Plus of course I'm working my way thru Aunt Vickie. Love her to pieces.

[@marthacheek3412]

When I was growing up my grandma used to buy chicken backs at our local grocery store. Thank you for bringing back great memories.

[@deloreshall7005]

Thank You Brooke your creative budget meals are great love love love your channel you go girl and keep on keeping on...now a days it's hard on everyone's wallets at the store with these crazy high prices and it's especially hard whenever your on a fixed income...and Brooke your hair is beautiful my daughter is 42 and she is completely gray headed someone ask her who does her hair that it was sooo pretty and she told them that the Lord frosted it for her ...but Thank You again and again love your channel ❤ 👏👏

[@abcjerilee]

You can do it! When my ex husb was in the Airforce and we lived below poverty level, I would buy chicken backs for 5 cents a pound and I made the best chicken and dumplings around! We didn't eat much veg, but we were always full!

[@lissahammond2249]

Just added riced cauliflower to my grocery list! I don't do low carb but why not get in an extra veg instead! Thanks Brooke. Also, I subscribed to Aunt Vickie😊

[@jsb9157]

All of the boys have grown like crazy...so, so handsome, too!!!😊❤

[@thecottagerose]

I love your video subjects, and think they are a great resource for everybody - I would love to see you do one with a limited amount of ingredients....like a list of 5 items, or less, and the protein is something that was found on markdown. I tend to shop markdowns a lot and build my meal around that a few times a week :)

[@ozpaws]

I would have used the chicken backs for soup or chicken and noodles but this looks REALLY good.!! Have to try it 🙂 I don't often see the chicken backs in the store anymore, butchers are just lazy and throw away

[@kricketcooper5024]

That’s exactly what I was thinking. I love homemade soups made from my homemade chicken stock.

[@wandamontgomery6030]

Probably bc nobody is asking for it?

[@ozpaws]

used to be you could buy wings and legs for almost nothing, but now they are as expensive as breasts and thighs!

[@cathytheisen1815]

Hey Brooke, I can remember as a young girl going to our local market and asking for a soup bone. The butcher threw them in a big bucket and they were free way back when. Your dinner tonight looked very delicious. Hugs

[@tamarasfavorites2116]

Yayyyyy!! First comment! I love your channel and it’s been extremely helpful to me since I am single and paying bills on my own. Thank you so much for the videos!!

[@amandapittar9398]

Once again you rock the Thrifted Food! I love your boys, they are just at that gorgeous stage before they go feral. And smelly. And silent. Before they return at 20. Got to love sons. Aren’t you and your husband so lucky to have three. Apart from feeding them… my MIL had three, then a late lamb when the youngest was 14. They all had hollow legs, poor woman spent 50% of her life feeding them. I LOVE your videos, looking forward to the next one. 😊

[@kitkat-fw3wy]

Looks good. I’ve never tried the riced cauliflower! Glad you talked Aunt Vicki into starting her channel, can’t wait to see what we’re making!!

[@teresamozingo6521]

I love your meals, hints, and your reels on great presents for each age group for girls and boys has been a lifesaver.

[@marilynmay8375]

I love this series. I'm always amazed at the combinations you come up with.

[@AuntVickiesCraftCorner]

I guess I need to reiterate this statement… don’t bother commenting on the size of the meals brooke serves her family it will be removed. I assure you her family is sufficiently and happily feed.

[@rachelcarey9369]

People just over eat. At least ONE meal should be a proper serving size. People just want to bitch. This is a good meal I say with proper recommended serving size. Now I am off to check out your channel!!!!

[@AngelaSchaefer-c5n]

Thank you Ms. Vicky some people have to much time on their. So they spend it being mean. Brooke's family is well fed and healthy.

AMAZING meal idea for just $5 ! I love Riced Cauliflower. I am not really a fan of Cauliflower but if it is in rice form yum. Just subscribed to Aunt Vicki's channel

[@theresabrennan6215]

You are so fun. I live in Canada and to shop for $5.00 can't happen!! Love you girl.

❤ Thank you Brooke as now my hubby has to do low carb and I'm always looking for budget friendly meals winner winner chicken dinner!!

[@jami29841]

Hey bestie❤ I am loving these low carb budget meals, I eat low carb to manage my diabetes, and this helps so much. Thank you Brooke ❤

[@debbiechaney6607]

Same here...thank you!!

[@diannthomas7849]

I never realized that diabetics needed to eat low carb until my friend's husband was diagnosed a few years back. She had a tough time coming up with tasty meals for him, especially on a budget. I bet Brooke's ideas are really helpful for a lot of people.

[@gingerhitzke9185]

Crust definitely makes the food taste better.

[@patbuegeler7770]

😅😮 that chicken was a great buy!!!! Great dinner for less than $5.00

[@janeprepper177]

'Struggle Meals'...and most of us need it.

[@tenthousanddaysofgratitude]

You did well with those backs. The rice bowl look great. I tried backs once and there wasn’t much meat on them. I used it for broth. 💖 - Tania at Ten thousand days of gratitude.

[@lethamurray3536]

Chicken Fryer backs are just the back section of the chicken. You used to be able to pick-up a package of them from the butcher for like 25 cents. Have always used them for making chicken broth.

[@annabanana71783]

Teriyaki Rice Bowl looks yummy! $5! Thank you for doing the food drive! Hi Dusty and boys! Subscribed to Aunt Vickie too!

[@channah64]

Thanks Miss Brooke! I loved your creativity using chicken backs - it's good to see resourcefulness win the day!

[@TheSusanhunter]

Thank you Brooke, I need more low carb meals in my life.

[@aprilok440]

The meat that you were showing at 4:10. My husband get the same way about a deal. Like that meat. I’m glad that I found your channel

[@cathylongstreth5405]

Wow! Meat, low carb, full bowl, under 5.00= AHMAZING MEAL❣️❣️ Great job, Brooke❤❤🎉🎉!!

[@cherie6756]

Tuna casserole with crushed potato chips on top will make a $4 meal. Could even put some frozen peas in it. As a single mom my kids ate this a lot. They loved it. I used boxed Mac and cheese and a can of tuna.

[@kitkat-fw3wy]

We used to do the same including the peas and crushed chips on top. We loved it!

[@Purple0fairy0bunny]

We do the same but use frosted or corn flakes. It seems like we always have a box from the food pantry.

[@bethdurbin3203]

However that would not be low carb which is this series.

[@ashleyjones7714]

I love these kinds of meals where you can get the veges and cook them in the bag in the microwave and rice is cooked in there too. I've had great dinners put together in minutes just by putting stuff in the microwave! I feed my 3 year old daughter just fine by putting meals together like that.❤

[@toniwilliamson2639]

That looks delicious! Way to go aunt Vickie!!

[@christolhall7408]

Everything looks so Amazing Brooke 😊 Love watching your videos. You and your family have a wonderful day and Thank you so much for this amazing dinner or lunch...

[@gypsy4136]

Those chicken backs are great for making chicken broth. I'd buy a LOT of those!

[@tracydimond3759]

I know this was a challenge menu but i wanted to give folks a heads up on another way to stretch thier money . If you can find it in your area...i get a 10lb bag of leg quarters (the thigh and drumstick attached) for less than $7.00 a bag. Before inflation affected everything i'd see them for $4.90 a bag. Usually there's 11 or 12 in each bag. So, if you seperated them at the joint, that's 22 to 24 pieces of chicken. You can sepetate it into freezer bags for your family's needs and for a great price.

[@sharonhart3735]

It's great for boiling them fryer backs to make chicken noodles or chicken dumplings.

[@JeanetteParmantie-jq5xy]

Great, I missed you. Thank you for these shows. LOVE ALL your VIDEOS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

OMG 1.01 for some chicken best deal I have ever seen 😅😅 cauliflower rice yum yum. Great job Brooke like always 👍👍👍

[@cynthiajudkins2250]

Looks good Brooke, I bought some cauliflower rice but haven't cooked it yet, I'm pretty sure I'll like it bc I like cauliflower

[@Holdenwhat]

That green shirt is a beautiful color on your son. I don’t like cauliflower but I actually like riced cauliflower better than rice in some dishes. It doesn’t taste like cauliflower and it’s a good texture. Great video.💜

[@annethompson2212]

forgot to tell you thank you for the tip on the glasses, I got 3 pair for $90 and they are great! ❤️

I use ground pork in my Asian bowls all of the time.

[@larryblocher3583]

Lots of healthy food for 5 dollars!! You are so creative 😊

[@x.y.7385]

You could throw an egg or two in there for some extra protein and calories. Looks good !

[@reginastephens935]

We’ve recently discovered that frozen broccoli is really good in the air fryer. Season with a little butter, oil and whatever spices you like. I like to add some Parmesan cheese at the end. Backs usually don’t have a lot of meat but they make really great broth.

[@kitkat-fw3wy]

How long and what temp for the broccoli? I was afraid it would be mushy but would like to try🙂

[@reginastephens935]

I’d probably start about 375 for 10 minutes and then watch it. I usually defrost in the microwave for a couple minutes first. May have to experiment a little at first.

[@kitkat-fw3wy]

@@reginastephens935Thanks!

[@reginastephens935]

I cooked mine tonight at 375 for 15 minutes and used Greek seasoning. It was tender-crisp.

[@LoLoLifeinFlorida]

I love how your mind works its a lot like how I cook! ❤

[@jimmiepatrum]

Well, that was pretty amazing. I have never seen chicken backs in any grocery stores before. just wondering if maybe most butchers don't know how to cut the chicken this way. I love the low carb aspect of this meal. I'm going to look for Del Monte riced cauliflower. I love riced cauliflower. You did good, sweet friend. Diane in NC

[@cherie6756]

Hi Brook, loved this, would it be possible for a series on beginner friendly instant pot meals? I've only just gotten my instant pot duo and I'm terrified of using the pressure cooker part of it!

[@catnapper7509]

Even if Brooke can't get to this one for a bit, there are lots of beginners instant pot videos here on you tube. That's how I learned to use mine! Have fun!

[@angelarothbauer8096]
