If you want the cornbread flavor, just add water to the mix slowly to not over water (I use JIFFY) and make pancakes (my Granny called them Johnny cakes). Make them very small because they can be crumbly . I make them and serve them with butter and syrup. Also serve with ham and beans.

[@emilyann342]

If you add Worcestershire to the ground turkey, it makes a world of difference in taste

[@melanieroberts2221]

prefer ground chicken.

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Def does!

[@karenchakey]

Thanks i am trying that

[@christinatareski8882]

I have found that red pepper flakes take the gamey taste out of ground turkey. A pinch makes a world of difference.

[@createwithlinda5181]

My mom used to always serve rice with chili…so yummy!

[@FluffyMarshmallow-x6r]

I use those $1.99 ground pork sausage rolls in so many recipes. We always have them on hand. I mix them w our ground beef for meat balls, meat loafs, i use them for any asian dish, i used them in Egg Roll in a Bowl (cheap, easy & so good skillet meal), I've even used them for sloppy joes when I ran out of our ground beef before we ordered more. Eveeyone loved it. You can substitute it or use one roll of the sausage w 1 lb of ground beef to make any recipe taste better and its cheaper, so thats a win 😊

[@sheliapeters2082]

Good ones yes I'm loving the five dollar challenges keep doing them they benefit everyone so much . Thanks

[@lynriley8196]

I use that cornbread all the time with just water and melted butter its delicious!

[@patty1h]

I use ground turkey 95% of the time because I got really skeeved out by the many chunks of gristle/bone I was finding in the ground beef all the time. As soon I feel that mystery bit in my mouth in beef, I'm done. Turkey has saved me from that headache.

[@muwgrad1987]

New subscriber, and thanks for the ideas! We just got an ALDI in my area, and I love it! It's definitely helping my budget.

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Add a squirt of ketchup whenever u have to use ground Turkey It helps!

[@MsPearlbell]

Thank you for being so down to earth. Chili recipe looks great!!

[@karimuabena]

that pork sausage is excellent it went up 50 in my town😳 2:50 now

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

FYI 1/3c of uncooked lentils w/2/3c dry brown rice and 2c water, 2T fat of choice (meat drippings or schmaltz is nice, butter will work) and 1tsp salt will make enough for 2 adult servings for a meal. The lentils & rice in those ratios make a complete protein but remember ur iron is still surely lacking. Adding a little meat to this for flavor is nice. Cut ur fat (above) in half if ur meat is a nice fatty meat.

[@karenchakey]

Put a inch of water in your dutch oven with couple of teaspoons of baking soda let it come to s boil and start scraping with a wooden spatula, i saw a video on it and it worked well, your meals looked great.

[@stateyourthesis]

🎉sorry I'm not watching this whole video, what's this trick for? Thx

[@karenchakey]

@@stateyourthesis cleaning a pan

[@FluffyMarshmallow-x6r]

Aldi sells chili seasoning in the spice section w the salt & pepper shakers. All of their spices are cheap

[@muwgrad1987]

Also, on chili, you can eat it on anything -- rice, spaghetti, baked potatoes, french fries, etc. Try chili on top of a few crushed corn chips with cheese on top for a Frito chili pie.

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

Thank you so much for your suggestions and kind comments! That sounds so good 😊

[@Wildmoonlite]

I know it doesn’t work for a lot of people, but I save a ton of money being plant based. Using beans, lentils, oats, in season produce, rice, pasta, and potatoes. If you like tofu its a great protein source or textured vegetable protein , but I prefer making seitan. There’s also so much protein in the beans, and lentils, and the pasta usually has some protein. If you have a little extra you can get the high protein pasta. We just made a Finnish favorite and made french fries topped with basically the stuff you would have on a burger. Traditionally they out chunks of sausage on there too, but I’m not paying that price for the vegan ones and It still tasted great.

[@kbr1980]

I just found your channel and I’m so happy to finally find a channel that not only on a budget but eats healthy. We eat non-GMO and organic whenever possible on a budget which is challenging. We also don’t eat pork which makes it even more challenging. So thank you I’m really loving your channel so far, only on video two.

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

Thank you so much!!!

[@claudiavela2796]

Put some white distilled vinegar abs some baking soda to get rid of the burnt stains. Leave it for about 5 minutes then scrub with a napkin and it comes off clean

[@timekabolden5309]

U read my mind

[@tommysparks9375]

I told my wife the same thing. That pour Dutch oven needs some lovin.

[@gloriapeel6887]

Looks great!

[@emily--m]

Thank you for sharing. Bars Keeper cleanser with a majic eraser should bring your pot back to a beautiful cleansed baby's bottom. Have a blessed and beautiful day 🥰

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

Thank you so much for the tip!! ❤️ have a blessed day as well’

[@redgingerbreadpam]

Always enjoy your videos. I'll definitely be trying these, they both looked delicious. We finally got an Aldi's an hour from me but I live very rural so everything is at least 30 min away. Aldi's is awesome, love it!

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

Thank you so much! Let me know how you like them!

[@allyrooh3628]

I transitioned my family to ground turkey over time. I started mixing 1/2 and 1/2 beef to turkey and then fully switched to turkey. Now it's all I use. Good video!

[@titalinda8515]

Great menus. Very tasty.

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

Thank you again I appreciate it ❤️ I hope it helps give you some ideas

[@jesusislord7488]

Personally, I prefer turkey chili to beef. Maybe I’ve been poor so long I’ve just gotten used to it. 😋❤️

[@marjoriebouwens6000]

I have the same trouble with measuring cups. I thought I was crazy. I've never seen anyone else have any problems with them. One would think that since they're made for pouring liquid, they wouldn't spill like that. 🤷 This is my first time watching your channel. These recipes look great. Thanks. I'll definitely be watching more and subscribing. Thanks for the ideas.

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

Lol I’m happy I’m not the only one dealing with that problem! 😂 thank you so much for watching and subscribing!!!

[@janmurphy9347]

You need a meat masher from Dollar Tree!

[@brg2743]

The chili and rice oooks good. Rice is a good filler.

[@AliciasKitchen7]

These both looked so good! Chili is like my favorite food

[@sherrylg2006]

Both look great!

[@shaunaleessnackidies]

The amount of gmo in seasoning blends in a whole recipe would be very tiny. I sometimes think pesticides or some meats are more “dangerous” than anything as small as some spices. My opinion.

[@timekabolden5309]

Bagged beans stretches further

[@cynthiaschupp1864]

I use ground turkey always. My dad is allergic to MSG and ALL the ground beef we have used has MSG in it, so I went to all ground turkey and we have been totally happy with it. Bonus: ground Turkey is cheaper too...

[@tracieschrock9519]

that breakfast sausage will take on the flavor you season it wirh..i use it for my Italian dishes 😋, tacos, meatloaf. churizo is also a very flavorful meat to cook with and only 1.50 a tube.

[@sherrieoday6848]

The corn would really taste Tex-mex if you roasted it first yum!!!

[@cindydaniel6125]

I would have used the sausage for both. Would have saved a little bit. Great meals.

[@abolitionistsofalabama261]

Good video! Just subscribed!

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

Thank you and God bless m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnewlGRnnK6Am68

[@ChallengeYourWalletAarynLynn]

Great job! Here’s a thing about ground beef and ground turkey, if you don’t care for the ground, turkey taste get beef bullion, or if you already have it at home throw it in with your ground turkey it helps flavor than me and make it taste just like ground beef! I learned this from my eldest daughter when she was here visiting last time and it’s been a game changer and allows me to grab buy ground turkey at a cheaper cost use the before Jan, run over to the international aisle and you can get a huge big 32 ounce or I think it’s 2 pounds basically of beef bullion for six dollars! It’s insane how cheap the prices in the international out, which is usually right behind the soup aisle that has bullion in there that’s a lot more expensive, definitely run over to the international aisle and grab your beef bullion and get the big jars for six bucks, I do this also with chicken bouillon and tomato chicken bullion as well. They’re all six dollars apiece.😊

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

That’s a great idea! Thank you for sharing, I never thought of that.

[@UnicornSprinkles123]

I also do this!

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Bouillon is msg Or msg substitutes They’re all excitotoxins There’s a long list of them. Do NOT eat msg

[@beybslifeintheus494]

look yummy food

[@1Melliebear]

Is yours a pioneer woman dutch oven? Mine is and it has done that

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

It’s actually a lodge! But they might be made by the same company I’m not sure.

[@andreacloyd4661]

We don't hav an aldi

[@richardselfridge2926]

Thank Heaven you use meat of any sort. I am a carnivore by birth! Thanks again!

[@tommysparks9375]

You texmex sausage and rice is actually called dirty rice. Just don’t put corn in it, that was just weird.

[@timekabolden5309]

I thought u was about to whip TWO meals out of $5!?! 🤣😆😭😆😭😭🤣😫

[@thecozyhomemaker316]

😂 haha I wish!!
