Grocery Haul! ~$310 HEB Back From Vacation Stock-up Haul!~

[@Justthollyy]

I know you get a lot of nasty, rude comments about your grocery hauls. But I have to say this is a normal grocery haul for a family. Honestly, you have the dairy, fruits and veggies, meats, canned goods and a few treats for the kids. Every family/person is different when it comes to buying their groceries. Ain't nothing wrong with buying a few more processed foods. As long as your kids and you and the rest of your family is fed, it's good. Great haul !

[@lillinsey100]

Holly i couldn’t agree more. i don’t why people leave negative comments,; it’s not your family so who cares.

[@Justthollyy]

lillinsey100 Exactly ! Unless people are going to give her money to buy what they think is "appropriate" food, they need to stop judging her.

[@brooklynsanders5609]

yesss! i am SO sick of the negative comments on her videos! people are disgusting.

[@brooklynsanders5609]

i literally can’t stand the negative comments on here with all of these women acting like they are damn nutritionists! “this is full of gmo’s. this is full of sugar. why aren’t you buying chicken if you’re trying to lose weight?” are you kidding me with this garbage?! holy hell!!! why are you even here? stop watching and stop critiquing someone for what they choose to feed their family. there is NOTHING wrong with what she chooses to buy for her family because ITS HER FAMILY!!! if you want to avoid these items in your personal grocery hauls, then great! stop criticizing her for what she chooses to buy. she isn’t asking for your nutrition opinions.....so just go awayyyy!!!!!!! GOOD RIDDANCE!👋🏼

[@MrsRDJerr]

It's so sad that you have to explain why you chose to go with quick and easy options for the summer because people feel entitled to criticize your families choices. Thanks for sharing this grocery haul! My family and I just moved up north from Texas and I miss HEB so much.. good luck on your weight loss journey!! ♡

[@elsabestrydom1100]

I put a plastic spoon in cup yogurts and put it in the freezer. Great frozen lollies

[@mallory04211984]

I love your grocery hauls! I know your busy, but I would love to see some cook with me videos. I feel like I'm in such a rut with dinner ideas. Love your channel!

[@angelbeauty10]

[@hkitty1122]

Odessa Trewin thank you! I hope I’m not overwhelming anyone!

[@hkitty1122]

Amanda Nicole aw so sweet thank you!

[@JessicaWilliams-ze4eo]

[@tracyt.2534]

I wish we had an HEB!!! Dang!!!

[@brandihurlbert2994]

Happy Holidays to you and yours, may you be blessed and peace be with you.

[@marbthebarb]

Lol you’re just like my mom. Buys like 6 of something leaves 1 out and puts the rest in the freezer. I love it 😂😂

[@sandral7829]

On a hot days it's great how kids to freeze yoghurt with a a pop stick in it before freezing to make ice cream

[@elizabethlawrence9740]

Melissa please when u do the wings please post how u did them thank you I never made them before I would love to make them at home

[@stephanienelson9332]

I think you did great for summer stock up .. I do the same for my grand kids. Mac and cheese pb&j fruits and veggies so great haul and good deal you got a lot for that price

[@nicolejones829]

You can freeze those yogurt cups! I do it all the time. Sometimes I’ll eat them frozen and it’s soooo good

[@joannalavalle377]

Yippee!!! This is what we’ve been waiting for grocery hauls and loving it thank you Melissa!!

[@hkitty1122]

Joanna Lavalle lol I was hoping you watched it! I know you were waiting!

[@joannalavalle377]

hkitty1122 Of course girl !!! U already know it :)

[@babyt0531]

Always love your grocery hauls happy to see you guys home safely ❤️

[@ninalo7704]

Please do cooking vids and what you ate in the week

[@hkitty1122]

Alibi Lo I actually just started what I ate for dinner again 😊

[@ninalo7704]

hkitty1122 can’t wait 😊

[@DailyPayWithMelissaM]

Melissa, I'm needing some recipes, girl! Your meal plan has me over here drooling 💜

[@sigmaslimez]

Nice haul , hope y'all having a great week

[@MissyWissy2001]

Can you do your guacamole recipe please?

[@Jackie78NJ]

MissyWissy2001 I have a really good one adapted from Rachel Ray. Guacamole 3 LG avocados 2 limes 1 lemon 4 small cloves garlic - finely diced Small bunch cilantro - finely chopped 4 pieces of sliced jalapeños (canned or jar) - finely diced Small red onion - finely diced 1 tsp kosher salt 1 15 oz can petite diced tomatoes w/ chiles In a bowl, add onion, juice from lemon and limes, 1 tsp kosher salt. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for a few hours. Sweating the onions is a crucial step to making the guacamole taste amazing! When ready to prepare, in a separate bowl, mash avocado with a fork and mix until texture is to your liking. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix again. Serve.

[@budgetwithfatima6530]

I buy a lot of milk but I never tried to freeze milk I would like to know how it turns out .

[@melissatamer9193]

That was a great haul for the price. You did AWESOME. I'm interested to see how long that haul lasts. Hopefully for 2 to 3 weeks as you said.

[@tishatittle1010]

those martha white baking mixes are amazing

[@nennyga5162]

My dad used to make us mac n cheese with pepperoni and it was sooo good lol

[@destroyer4364]

I do freeze yogurt cups, but I popsicle sticks in them. Kids love them.

[@alexacuffaro262]

Great haul!!!! That fruit and veggies would last 4 days tops in my house lol they eat it all!!!+

[@jnflo2008]

After always getting luncheon meat, we’ve learned it’s usually cheaper to get it all cut from the HEB deli! Just passing it on. I used to think it was much more expensive until we started picking up in there instead of the already packaged meats.

[@preciousj4972]

Great grocery haul! My family loves tilapia! Have you tried swai fish?! It’s good too!

[@SocaMusicLova1]

You can freeze cups of yogurt. You can even stick a popsicle stick through the packaging and then freeze and serve as yogurt pops. Trix yogurts aren't the best but if you do it with those its tastier

[@annmarieholohan495]

I freeze yoghurt for my son he's 14 months and he loves them out of the freezer esp lately he's got 4 teeth in quick succession and a cold,frozen yoghurt was a lifesaver

[@chasityserrano]

Healthy noodle from Costco is 1 net carb per serving!!! It’s really yummy too!

[@courtneydawn107]

Definitely can freeze the yogurt cups! Try sticking a popsicle stick in them before to make a nice, healthy popsicle type frozen snack! 😊 Easier to eat that way once frozen too, my girls love it!!

[@HillbillyFamlife]

Awesome grocery haul! You found some great deals!! Much love💗

[@MetalScrappinChick]

One of my favorite things to do with hot dogs is to slice them up, fry them in a pan, and add them to my mac and cheese. Makes such a quick, yummy meal 😁

[@LifeWithMrsB]

What a huge haul! we homeschool so the kids are home all year round and they just eat constantly lol

[@donnasimon86]

Pricey 😱 but awesome haul👌 I understand the need to overstock for summer- kiddos eat ya out of house and home 😁 We eat the same things as you do during the summer- lots of fruit, veges, chips, ice cream, frozen pops, water, anything that is light, satisfying and filling😊 Thanks so much 👍

[@erinnicole77]

Back when I was a little kid, when the dinosaurs were friendly and roaming around, we would make koolaid pops. Take like a dixie cup and a popsicle stick and instant ice pop! If time isn't on your side or you forgot there's always the long popsicles in the plastic that cut the crap out of your mouth, they have a real name but never remember what that is.

[@hkitty1122]

Erin H lol this made me laugh! That’s a great idea and we have a ton of Dixie cups!

[@kathyabel5338]

The ones thar cut your mouth? Freezer Pops. In the good ole days.

[@carolineajanaku6587]

WE GOT THREE VIDEOS IN SUCH A SHORT TIME. I FEEL SO LUCKY LOL. I AM SO HAPPY. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS.

[@hkitty1122]

Caroline Ajanaku aw thank you!

[@christiedixon8886]

Tilapia fish is delicious and you buy what your family likes

[@katrinasalyga3618]

It’s not a matter of the fish tasting good or not if it doesn’t say fresh waster they are grown in filth

[@xWhereswaldo]

Tilapia are bottom feeders, even if it's wild they are "in filth" at least farmed can be monitored.

[@katrinasalyga3618]

If fish is farmed they shouldn’t be farmed in filth

[@stardwyer2012]

Maddie is getting so tall and autumn is so cute I like when she says pound it

[@erg231546]

You can definitely freeze cups of yogurt! Some of the yoplait used to say “try frozen”

[@hkitty1122]

Emma Guisti yay that’s great!

[@nitneyscrafts88]

Hello....would luv to see your sausage and zucchini meal!! Thanks for sharing💜

[@imsweet11]

if you forgot to buy ricotta, then just make it your own. its so easy as well. you have gallons of milk. so just use half a gallon to make one huge bowl of ricotta. heat up the milk and drop in few tablespoons of lemon juice/vinegar. your have yourself some amazing quality cheese.

[@rhondawack]

You look so happy!!!!

[@nicolew9100]

Hi Melissa you are an Amazing Mom and Wife!! If you want your romaine lettuce to last longer after you clean in soak it is water and squeeze fresh juice from the lemon and let it sit for about 5-7 min then drain the water off and store in a container and it last a bit longer!! I can get mine to last at least a week without the lettuce browning!! Have an Great weekend!! 😊😊

[@SimplyMAReeAHnuh]

All the meals sound delicious! I hope you do some cooking videos soon.

[@sigmaslimez]

Nice stock up haul, have a great week

[@dorachavez7325]

Thanks for the haul 👍 sending love from Chicago 🙋‍♀️

[@keishabrett9525]

i always freeze yogurt containers!

[@polk040699]

Will you film when you make the shoot stir fry please

[@prettyLittleThings-t9d]

i miss my HEB ... they dont have that in New mexico..

[@beckyhunt9628]

Please don't worry about what people think you should & shouldn't feed your kids. Just by looking at them you can tell they are well taken care of. We love tilapia & my hubby loves the fish tacos & I picked that dish up from you, also we don't have blacked tilapia (or I have never found it in my area). And to save money we season it ourselves I love it cause I can season it to my taste. Glad you guys are back.....

[@UrPurpleStaR]

Melissa there was a recall on H-E-B bread!

[@hkitty1122]

Mrs.JessiKaV somebody messaged me that I’ll definitely be taking those back!

[@Pezolicious]

Melissa...the bread recall was earlier in the week, they would have removed it from the shelves. Also, the recall was because of the smell and taste of the bread, they used the wrong yeast but it's not in any way dangerous. So glad you're back!

[@SimplyMAReeAHnuh]

You can definitely freeze that yogurt!

[@JessicaWilliams-ze4eo]

that was a big haul

[@AnnCulver82]

You can freeze cups of yogurt

[@mareebrown2163]

Great on a hot day, and better for you than ice cream

[@Justanotherhuman307]

I had no clue, I’ll have to do that for my daughter

[@mindyreed2625]

When my girls were little, they liked cooked hot dogs in their macaroni & cheese.

[@Jessica24845]

Buy wings at Aldi i think its a 3 or 2 pound bag for 8.99 i think but they are frozen

[@natalieg5425]

We make wings at home all the time... we just go buy Buffalo Wild Wings sauce and done delicious

[@heynarpss9000]

I freeze my cup yoghurts they amazing during summer time

[@tiffanyknight834]

I wish we could get that much food here in Alaska for $310 that’s awesome you deff made it stretch!

[@TheJessicaglee]

Tiffany Knight we were stationed in AK for 4 years... when we came back to the lower 48 I actually hugged the cashier at Lidl... and tears were shed!

[@Pisces11]

What’s an expander for the milk?

[@findingkate7128]

Francheska White expanders are the indents on the side of the gallon. 😊

[@Pisces11]

Finding Kate thanks. I never knew that. 😊😊

[@clarkrachel26]

Target and aldi sells the cherry pit tool

[@n8iveangel651]

Nice Haul! Would love to know your recipes for TacoSoup & Chicken Salsa?...sounds good💜

[@kathyabel5338]

What a great haul. So who won? Which of you was closest to guessing $310?

[@brendapaxton8426]

Wow that was a great haul !!

[@christimabryramos1069]

Man your grocery haul from HEB was great. I never seem to get that much for my money.. Just this month I have already spent 600.00 at H.E.B and the month isn't even over yet. If you don't mind me asking what city do you live maybe that's why prices are different.

[@parkerbryant9187]

I LOVE Tilapia

[@JessicaWilliams-ze4eo]

broccoli is my favorite vegetable

[@Ronniethegoblin]

Can you make a video about Keto and low carb?

[@highlyblessed2389]

I freeze my yogurts all the time. That's how I eat them.

[@danaroob]

I freeze yogurt and use it in smoothies later.

[@katrinasalyga3618]

Dana B good idea

[@michellebarganier]

Yay! A grocery haul! Welcome back guys!

[@jennifermumm9201]

So glad you guys are back! Missed you all so much!! Best grocery hauls.❤😍

[@hkitty1122]

Jennifer Mumm so glad to be back too!! Thank you 😊

[@bettybrown5707]

nice haul

[@shelbystockston8896]

Love your videos!

[@xWhereswaldo]

Do you watch lemonademom? She's near San Antonio and she's mentioned some delicious yogurt she gets at Walmart, I can't remember the name off hand but they have cool flavours you should probably try!

[@michellebarganier]

Please share your recipe for zucchini enchiladas!

[@nicoleguiterrez9337]

love your review

[@kedoriwilson]

FOOOOOOOOOD!!!!😃😃

[@lynettejackson1128]

Love your grocery hauls

[@mazzystar13]

HEB has the best produce ever....I’m a Texan native, have been living in OH for 2 years and that is one thing I miss.....the produce just isn’t the same and I just miss everything from Texas...especially HEB! Great haul!

[@JessicaWilliams-ze4eo]

my nephew's and niece love those hotdógs

[@McKatie101]

Wait, whats wrong with Tilapia fish? Why is it controversial?

[@llllll9805]

😘😘😘😘😘😘👍👍👍👍👍

[@sistahghul57]

Next time buy the bag of wings for $11, then cut them into wingettes.

[@bibbity22]

We eat tilapia as well occasionally. Just a heads up Costco has it in the frozen section as well in a bag (fillets) and it’s the best tasting tilapia we’ve tried! We also use it for fish tacos!

[@hkitty1122]

melanie true ohh I’ll check it out there next time thank you!

[@ashleyr1505]

Andouille sausage is Aan-doo-wee lol. And now you have me wanting fresh cherries but those things are so darn expensive

[@clicksandcrochets2929]

If you have a sprouts they are on sale right now for $1.98/lb :)

[@carollandrum9223]

Also at Sprouts, strawberries for .98 per 1lb carton thru the 27th.

[@hkitty1122]

Ashley R ohhh lol I’d never even seen that word before haha thanks!

[@hkitty1122]

Carol Landrum ohh great deal!

[@ashleyr1505]

clicksandcrochets no we don’t have sprouts here. We only have a Walmart and it’s a 45 minutes drive. I live in the middle of no where

[@cw21661]

😀👍

[@GiesTidbits]

💕💕💕

[@christine1973]

😍😍😍

[@organizedirma]

Tilapia is controversial? I think it's delicious.

[@tweetysixteen]

organizedirma Was thinking the same thing!!

[@hkitty1122]

organizedirma I think it’s more about the raising of it than anything!

[@organizedirma]

That's a bummer.... Sadly I'll still eat it.

[@danaroob]

You just can’t be sure where it comes from, and could have super gross stuff in it because of that. That’s what the deal is. Personal choice.

[@angelm3008]

Just read the ingredients. Last I heard there were some brands that had the same thing used in cleaning products (or maybe it was formaldehyde) as a preservative. That was a few years ago. There’s always a farmed vs. wild caught debate with all fish.

[@sarahct87]

I thought I was the only one who dilutes my daughters apple juice. We buy the same brand at HEB!

[@hkitty1122]

Sarah Tharpe omg yes! Even the big girls get diluted juice lol

[@heatherw.1929]

Sarah Tharpe nope your not my daughter never drinks 100% juice I always dilute it. She drinks honest juice or mots for tots.

[@SherryandRicky]

💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@tonyaeller1839]

A lot of processes foods

[@PaigeC.94]

How come no chicken breast if you’re trying to lose weight you’re eating the wrong meats full of fats

[@cindysams9832]

PaigeC she said at the beginning that they have a lot of meat in the freezer.

[@Esalucyyoscar]

She bought bulks of chicken breast months ago thats why

[@gregstern8763]

Why must you criticize.

[@janicehornsby7426]

You can freeze cups of yogurt.

[@sistahghul57]

Next time buy the bag of wings for $11, then cut them into wingettes.
