We are flat broke. I’ll be getting creative with what is in my pantry. No meat in freezer. In a brighter side, all bills are paid for the month of November. Thank you for all of the recipes especially the 5.00 ones.

[@BetsyVanGundy-u1u]

@@2legit2quit4u I'm sorry you are having a tight month. If things get tough food, utility wise, check in with Catholic charities . You don't have to be Catholic. They can help you out, so can salvation army. If you were here, close to me, I'd share my freezer and pantries with you!! Bless you and your family. Your a great mom with lots of blessings in store for you!!🌻💙 .

Quinoa is cheap, somewhere around the price of bagged rice or other bagged beans. It's these tiny seed things. They got protein and fiber in them. So it's great to mix into ground meats to make them stretch. So where I would have cooked a pound of beef, I do half a pound, and on the side cook up like a quarter cup quinoa (it expands) and mix it into the meat. So for pasta with meats or Sloppy Joe's, it can really help make meats last an extra meal. Only ground meats tho from what I've tested. And I don't think it has a strong flavor, at least in a sauce, so I don't really notice it's there.

[@mikaylaweitzenecker2830]

@samantharowell9733 I was gonna say this i never thought of quinoa, but I used to put oats in mine meat to make it stretch. Especially when making things like stuffed peppers or meatloaf, also, eggs are good protein that you can make meat stretch with too!

[@mikaylaweitzenecker2830]

I'm sorry you're going through that Mama times have been really hard lately. I know that exact feeling where you're like. Well the bills are paid, but we're eating peanut butter and jelly and Mac and cheese LOL. Everything is SO high. Especially with food every time I go to the grocery store. I can't believe how much it cost. 2 bags of groceries $,80. It's just insane.

[@georgekessler3548]

At our Walmart, if you buy a cold rotisserie chicken rather than a hot one, it is much cheaper. -Kryste

[@TrixieTricks]

When I went to make these, I got two recipes confused and made the roast beef sandwiches on pretzel buns. My husband loved it!!

[@annseabolt6645]

I use the skin and bones from rotisserie chicken and boil them to make chicken stock and then freeze it to use in dishes.

[@sarahjaye4117]

Me too:)

[@bsouthmama3010]

Yum to all! Take a bag of those burritos, still frozen, put in a casserole dish, top with a can or 2 of enchilada sauce and a bag of fiesta shredded cheese. Yum!!

[@dynogamergurl]

Yussss. That also is really good, same for taquitos

[@sherrylewis9327]

I do this but I use 5x7 pans with 2 burritos per pan, add sauce and foil over the top. One for tonight and 3 for the freezer. Very easy freezer meals for one. (Oh yeah, add cheese on "cook night" LOL

[@sarahjaye4117]

Good idea:)

[@karinmagnusongheddar6476]

What a great idea

[@marjoriejohnson4559]

I used to make tostadas with canned refried beans and then melt cheese on top, and add lettuce and tomatoes for a quick cheap dinner.

[@pattyvarela2703]

That's the way my grandkids love it that way with just beans and cheese

[@tinacollinsworth9507]

I make nachos like that minus lettuce and tomato.

[@nikkilopez7274]

Got to have the beans on it! :)

[@amythompson6494]

Oh yeah! My family loves this. And sour cream, cause I love sour cream lol

[@phoebe-peebeeya]

yeah i was horrified and offended by the amount of bbq sauce in this vid... Cute recipes ruined

[@gibsongirl6816]

I really enjoyed this video. I am a nurse and get up at 5 am, home at 6pm. I am always sooo exhausted and can't stand to cook. Alot of this would be doable. And my son would like these. TY.

[@mikaylaweitzenecker2830]

I remember those days and you get sick of crock pot meals. There's only so many things you can make in a crockpot before they all start tasting the same LOL.

[@robinkey6676]

Been there many times!! Best feeling in the word when bills are paid. Prayers.

My parents used to make roast beef sandwiches with a packet of brown gravy and roast beef. The bolillos in my grocery store are 8 for $1 and huge so we'd usually split two. But just warm up the roast beef in the gravy and pile up on the bread with mayo lettuce and tomatoes. So quick but so yummy!

[@kathleendonnelly6077]

Love them veggie trays. When your over them. Make the leftovers ones into soup.

[@cindyupton7357]

Yummy. Tostada’s. Got to do those

[@shondanonyaa7220]

Just a quick tip I managed an arby's in Indianapolis The arby's sauce and the red sauce that they use on the beef and cheddar are different The red sauce on the beef and cheddar is actually Kraft Catalina French dressing but you did get the right cheese

[@anitacraighead7038]

I was told it was Red Russian dressing.

[@StormTrackerWV]

OMG the Arby's Beef & Cheddar sliders are the best idea! For the adults, you can even get the "onion" rolls too at the store if you like those, what a great idea!

[@NukkinMisfit]

I got a rotisserie chicken for just over $3 at my Walmart, it was already chilled (cooked the day before) but could not believe how cheap it was! Brought it home & tore it apart & put it in my freezer! Thanks for all these easy recipes! I will be making some!!! I’m HOOKED on your cheeseburger casserole!!

You are so right eating out is so expensive so even when once in a while when you need some prepackaged veggies or food is so much cheaper

[@CherylBailey-o1q]

I too am totally broke but all of November's bills were paid on time. Also thanks to you I have so many meals on hand in my freezer and my pantry. I don't have a turkey or a turkey breast but I have a huge pork loin from the Church up the road. A nice piece of ham bought on sale last month plus several different meats like ground turkey Walmart pound pks of half beef half pork (think meatloaf) John Morrell sausage and 8 really nice pork chops from the Church. Thanks to you I can fix all kinds of sides with my pantry. Thank you so much. I can think of dozens of meals that I have the fixings for. Trying to decide between chili, veggie soup (your nemesis) and meatless spinach lasagna. I love you sweet girl you have taught this old gal (72) some new tricks❤❤❤

[@bubarong]

for a cheap meatless meal, a packet of stuffing mix, can of beans drained mix together with about 3/4 of the bean can of water add herbs or spices of your choice, let it swell and shape into burger patties (makes about 8) or make into meatballs and have spaghetti. I love these made with lentils it's cheap quick and filling. Good luck with everything!

[@leahh577]

Great busy meals for a small household too! We grew up with fried burritos covered with canned chili and cheese.

[@ohnoyce]

Never thought about frying those burritos! Yum.

I can't get past $12 for a whole chicken 😵‍💫 we have local grocery stores that put them on sale for 0.88 a pound and that's when I go buy a few for the freezer. thankful to have options!

I do the chicken tostada's but substituted the BBQ with some Ragu Marinera And top with the same cheese Italian seasoning and chopped olives. Try the the Arbys bagels with Catalina salad dressing instead of Arbys suace, very close to a Beef and Cheddar.

I've done something like your roast beef bagel bites...but I used full size bagels with ham and sliced cheese. Mustard as the condiment and if I have a slicing tomato after baking I add a slice of tomato. Soooo yummy and easy dinner With the frozen burritos I like to put them in a baking dish with a can of enchilada sauce and top with cheese the last 5 minutes in the oven (I bake for approx 35 - 45 min.)
