Thanks for sharing realistic budget meals. They all look good and satisfying, without meat, and with a good amount of vegetables.

[@littlehummingbird1015]

It would be much much healtier with meat included!!!!

[@barbaranymiel3089]

Really meat is not healthy for you so it's healthier without meat especially red meat.

[@tinaavendano1962]

Don't forget to always wash your rice...especially brown rice which has higher arsenic levels. Great video! 👌

[@augustajones8368]

i am so glad i found your channel! we have been struggling so bad and this has helped us so much! ❤️

[@tammifields4142]

Baby Van is growing so fast!💙💙 Yummy ideas Abby 😋 Thanks for sharing!💞💞

[@PenelopePeppers]

My 19 yr. old son LOVES 15 Bean Soup !!!! I just cube up a Ham Steak and add it in 👍

[@shelzp7272]

Excellent job! We very seldom eat meat, maybe a piece of ham at a friend’s holiday dinner so I cook this way all the time and it is definitely inexpensive.

[@emily--m]

Excellent video. Can't wait to try these. Love the 16 bean soups. They are so filling and you can add many things to them. Have a blessed and beautiful day 🥰

[@Kat-go9mt]

I have to make all of these! They look so 💯 good and affordable! 🥰

[@PenelopePeppers]

I made something similar years ago and added some chopped smoked sausage and my kids loved !!! I made on the fly and still don't know exactly what I added but it was great!!

[@torahcreations6151]

Those are always the best meals too when you cook them off the fly. I hate that I can never remember the exact ingredients and measurement 😂

[@amypletcher4411]

I'm going have to save these recipes for Meatless Monday ideas! 😊❤ Thank you! The rice dish sure did look tasty but I would have to divide it since we have only 3 in the family now. Sometimes only two if our daughter doesn't eat at home.

[@brookejones4000]

Extreme Budget videos are some of my favorite to watch! ❤

[@briandab7735]

Wow I can’t wait to try them all these meals look delicious. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@kkelly4360]

I love these kinds of videos!!! ❤❤❤

[@jannie5559]

Love these types of viedos..keep them coming and thank you!

[@aprilpetersen5479]

I have made several meal plans of yours and I love them. They are realistic and doable. Thank you and have a blessed week.

[@user-po2ql5tb6w]

My husband when he was alive got me this big book on soups and you know if you have. You know your vegetables in your soup and some cabbage. That's some good meals with some tomatoes onion

[@heleeneverson8256]

Awwww so cute mommy

[@victoriasugent6288]

[@ameliastelmach148]

So glad I found you lol Thank you for NOT peeling your carrots! Many vitamins are in the peels. Everyone else peels them

[@nancymv]

Can't wait to try the 15 bean soup!

[@teresitap5778]

Looks good and easy. I'll try a variation on the bean & rice skillet ❤

[@carrie3393]

My family loved the 15-bean soup.

[@rachelbolick]

Hey Abby, Happy Tuesday. Thank you for sharing these eight meals that are only $20. ❤ it’s hard to make meals for cheap now a days because everything is so expensive now. 😢 I think all of these meals are delicious and affordable. The only con is that none of them contain meat but it has a perfect blend of vegetables and proteins in them. ❤🥰

[@hello-vs4me]

Thanks for another meal plan love your videos thanks ❤😊

[@crystaldon4995]

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Cool more meals more crockpot more instant pot more more more

[@iammybelovedslisajackson2758]

Great ideas! I will be subscribing.

[@hello-vs4me]

Found 50 pounds of rice for 3.47 st grocery outlet comes to 7 cents a pound and 5 pounds of carrots 🥕 for 2.99 at grocery outlet love your meals thanks ❤😊

[@hannahw2697]

Great video! Did you put the seasoning from the 15 bean soup mix into the soup?

[@crystaldon4995]

[@angelawhite2307]

Very delicious inexpensive meals!

[@PenelopePeppers]

Van Is so CUTE 🥰

[@michellewrisley79]

These would be great but I'm having to do no carb diet so can't use and beans rice or corn or any pastas It's frustrating to have to use more expensive items

[@susanhoward5046]

My husband would never survive this !! No meat...lol But i think they are all great recipes !! You shared everyone can still eat for $20 !! Can we have more videos like this one ? ❤

[@vickiethompson9245]

You can certainly add some meat if you can afford to do so.

[@lynnraasakka]

Your baby is so cute!!!❤

[@lynzieelevy7363]

Wouldn’t be quite so cheap for me in Canada BUT the base ideas are wonderful! Love this content

[@breezybre2670]

Lovely video minus the background music. Love videos with no music when you are talking.

[@ginadowd1713]

Love this! Brown rice is cheaper and better for ya!

[@thefunfam1433]

Well that’s debatable

[@Hotmessbudgets]

[@alexdeaton5107]

These are great ideas! Thank you! I had a quick question though. What do you do when your kids won't eat the meals you made? Do you keep other snacks on hand (yogurt, fruit, cereal, etc.)? I have three littles who don't always like what is being served for dinners, so I just wanted your take as a momma of littles. :)

[@stephanieschimek595]

Yes my two littles don’t eat crap

[@asweetbite3935]

Haha mine don’t either lol until I say nothing else until you eat it. Then when they want a snack or dessert , they sure so finish it!@@stephanieschimek595

[@stephanieschimek595]

@@asweetbite3935 my kids won’t even do that. They say we rather starve and just go to bed. It’s rough

[@asweetbite3935]

Oh man!@@stephanieschimek595

[@Saras_place]

We skip all day snacking here .. i made high protein breakfast and veggie fruit lunch and hearty Dinner .. they eat or go without

[@ilovemyservicedog8862]

For the spaghetti you could’ve gotten like a $.20 can of tomato paste and made you some tomato sauce and grape

[@aprilinalabama9074]

Your baby is adorable ❤

[@tammifields4142]

Yes he is!💙

[@CharleneFreedInChrist]

I cant find any 15 bean soup anywhere.. thinking maybe its not in California??

[@cynrok]

All your kids have the same face so cute

[@chenowa]

She didnt wash the rice lol dont tell Rice man 😂

[@m3bck]

Wow….your Walmart is cheap…at mine, for example, green peppers are 99 cents ON SALE!

[@breezybre2670]

The only problem is getting my kids to eat beans. Sigh. 2 will eat them . 4 won't.

[@jakefisher-psalm23]

At a store that I would actually shop at...probably a bit more than $20. Walmart is *_horrible_* to their employees and I will not support them.

[@asweetbite3935]

Love this video and your channel but doesn’t seem like a realistic meal, no side, no seasoning on the pasta salad- maybe more of a survival type meal? But still, that shows you can work with $20 so thank you!

[@emily--m]

I would rewatch the video as you missed somethings.

[@tracieschrock9519]

she tells you the 2 spices she used in the pasta salad

[@Taxi4B]

"no side" ... dafuq?

[@missye7070]

I think some people use too many spices when they're cooking. I like her ideas.

[@asweetbite3935]

@@missye7070 me too :)

[@mayday911us]

Yeah no idea how you're doing that for $20 at Walmart you might be able to pull that off with the dollars door for 30 bucks.

[@danielakriesche3658]

Hallo aus Deutschland! Das Video ist hilfreich, aber die Musik ist irgendwann nur noch nervig!🤷‍♀️

[@Jennifer-hh9ql]

Where’s the meat

[@pij718]

Nice video you are nice lady

[@jillgott6567]

I love frugal meals and am glad to have found your channel. However, this haul is too high in the amt of beans and carbs for me. A cup of Peas has 8 grams of Protein plus Vit C etc and is a great combination of protein and veg options. I would definitely have gone with at least 1 can or packagevof frozen Peas. That way, I could do away with some of the beans and certainly one pasta to include more Veggies.

[@thesimplifiedsaver7052]

Thanks for sharing! there’s no way that I can make a video with trying to consider everybody’s needs. I hope you understand that. These meals are to inspire you and you can definitely tweak them and make them your own.

[@ilovemyservicedog8862]

The only problem with this meal is, it’s got a lot of beans and obviously beans cause gas so I can’t imagine eating as many beans especially like when I was a kid I was terrified about having gas in school like I know this is funny but like it’s not so keep in mind that if you’re serving beans and stuff that keep in mind that people have to go to work or things like that you might wanna alter Little bit

[@littlehummingbird1015]

Your corn is most likely GMO....all corn is unless it is stated on the can non-GMO. Your green pepper is on the Dirty Dozen list. So is the carrot and potatoes. Lots of pesticides in them.. 😵😒😵‍💫
