🚨7 Day EXTREME GROCERY BUDGET!🚨Feed YOUR Family for $50!

[@susans9491]

Your channel is such a refreshing contrast to so many that would never admit to a moment of doubt or uncertainty. At times we all feel like you just don’t want to make hot dog buns, but you soldiered on and got great results! This is just the encouragement I need on certain days. Thank you for being so open , honest and gracious!❤

[@homemadesimplewithlori]

Wow, thank you!

[@lindarobinson5163]

I enjoy watching your videos. I am a widow of several years. 3 years ago, I was able to shop with a budget of $100.00 for the month, and that included household items. Lol. Things are harder now. Watching your videos keeps me on track and to remember what is a need versus a want. I do bake from scratch a dessert once a week or one that will carry over. Keep the videos coming. I do shop online at Wal-Mart to keep myself from going over budget. Thank you.

This is why we need to vote that’s going to benefit OUR country. USA 🇺🇸 seems this administration is destroying our country and giving everyone else out money we work hard for. Seems Mr Build back better either didn’t get the permit or he meant any country but the beautiful 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@homemadesimplewithlori]

Dessert is important! 🎉❤️

[@LearningLivingLovingLife]

You could have made pigs in a blanket for the hot dogs. Just cut the hot dogs in half and wrap biscuit dough around them and bake. They are delicious and so easy to make! You can use Bisquick. I use a homemade version of that. I just make the biscuit as usual. Sometimes I add a bit of cheddar. I agree, I think this was your best low budget plan yet! Congratulations on making it to 20K!

[@homemadesimplewithlori]

That’s a good idea!

[@christinabryant5725]

The little bit of char on the browned meat just gives it extra flavor. I think that is a great thing!!

[@sassyherbgardener7154]

Bless your heart! We have all been there, when you don't feel like making something that you had planned. So, you could make those quick easy 30 minute dinner rolls, and use them for hot dog buns. I just cut the wieners in half and have a hot dog sandwich, or shape the rolls long. Also, I have made quick flour tortillas that take 5-10 minutes, and use a skillet. Roll the wieners up with your toppings. You can make a super quick chaffle (cheese waffle), but it will be a bit more expensive. If you are in a time crunch, or don't feel great, it would be worth it. You can easily find these recipes online. The chaffle is a keto recipe, and I use an egg and a handful of cheese to make two of them in a mini waffle maker. I add spices and/or chopped onions sometimes. They cook up fast, are VERY filling, and delicious! We use them for hamburger buns, and it is like an onion roll, only crunchy. Great job! Thank you for sharing.

[@berrypatch5583]

You are such an encouragement to all of us on a strict budget. Thank you!

[@bettychrispatterson9314]

I so agree that the stocked pantry is a must when it comes to staying on budget!

[@laurabennett7051]

Love your channel. One of my personal budget tips is using my slow cooker to batch cook protein. If your viewers can't get a cheap rotisserie chicken, cooking a whole chicken in the slow cooker is easy, forgiving, and budget friendly in terms of energy costs. I buy "family size" trays of protein on sale (chicken drumsticks, thighs, or leg quarters are great picks) and cook them with very little seasoning in my slow cooker to get multiple meals over a week. The same can be done with ground meat.

[@homemadesimplewithlori]

Great tip! Thanks!!

[@wolchfam]

Great recipes. If budget allows add in popcorn, saltines, peanut butter and apples for snacks. Still comes in under $60 for a whole week of meals plus snacks. I love those Costco chickens. I’ve used them in a similar fashion making several meals with one $5 chicken. Luckily an Aldi will be coming to my town soon but in the meantime I shop mostly at Winco for the best grocery prices.

[@heiditagge5776]

20k yay! I don’t have instagram or facebook anymore. Good luck to the winners 😊 thank you for sharing the recipes ❤

[@elizabethdoan7039]

I love your channel Lori. It's the only channel that I've signed up to notify me when you have a new video. Blessings from SC!

[@homemadesimplewithlori]

Wow, thank you!

[@juliephelps7616]

Making bread is awesome. I have used bread like that, used slices of it to make garlic bread. In a skillet i add a little olive oil, a little butter, add garlic powder and Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Heat to melt the butter, dip the slices or brish them with this mixture and bake in oven. My husband thought it was amazing. I buy the rotisserie chickens and do the same as you. I will be making chicken noodle soup today with carrots, celery, green peas, onions, and egg noodles. I add garlic and turmeric to my chicken bones and cook them in the crockpot with a splash of apple cider vinegar to the crockpot. What is not used goes in the freezer for later. I want to branch out into more freezer meals for summertime. Like crock pot meals to stop using the oven. Keep the videos coming. I enjoy them.

[@kathleenritter4532]

Great video. Perfect because right now I'm lucky to have $50 per week but I have a well stocked pantry. Very blessed. The hot dog rolls turned out great. You seemed to be having a moment. Hugs. Perfect isn't what's important there mama. You've told us many times. I'm subscribed on FB and will be setting up an Instagram account today. Thank you!!

What a cute little fryer! I’ve never seen one that small. Perfect for one person.

[@brandykaminski8289]

You were absolutely killing me over the "hot dog buns" part of the video. Totally made my day. 😂

[@desertfamilyhomestead3127]

I know me too. Many days I have that attitude of why didn’t I just buy this because I don’t want to make it from scratch!! So if I don’t make it then I have to completely change up the menu and sometimes that is even more work to do(mentally). 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

[@homemadesimplewithlori]

🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

[@Hannah_MK]

“I’m going to make these buns….and grow in maturity in the process.” 😂😂 I completely relate!

[@therese_grimsdottir]

Thank you for these kind of videos. It's a real struggle right now for us. You're an inspiration. ✨

[@pandapoof8798]

Congrats! I followed and subscribed on both. I hope the new addition to the family is doing well after being warmed up. Also I wanted to suggest for people making hotdog buns. I have had success making some basic ones with just flour, yeast, water, and salt. I just make sure my dough is a bit stickier when it rises. I find that gives a softer bread.
