How to Eat for $15 a Week Spring 2021 | Walmart Extreme Grocery Budget & Menu

[@leandreariggins189]

Literally didn’t realize it was a wig. I thought “ wow, she dyed and curled her hair! Man, it real long too” 😂

[@TheQuaintHousewife]

Thank you, Leandrea! My head hurts because I used a cap too and I was afraid of cutting the lace too far in. But your comment makes me feel I did okay!

[@irishdivajeffries6668]

No it looks like a wig in front. But otherwise looks really good.

[@TheOrganizedPineapple]

I thought it was real too. Looks good!

[@kimcheelove]

You can grow a new pineapple from the top! No need to throw it out! Just keep it in water until you get some roots and can plant it.

[@rebelonatrail1182]

We love your videos! How would I feed myself on $15 per week: maybe 5lb bag of flour, yeast packets, 1lb rice, 1 lb dried beans, 1 lb dried lentils, 2 onions, bag of carrots, 18 eggs, 2 heads garlic, 1 can tomato paste, and 4 bananas. I would bake 3 loaves of bread (because no butter to make biscuits). Breakfast would be toast with 2 eggs or a banana. Lunch would be rice and beans OR lentil soup with scoop of rice in it. Dinner would be an egg sandwich with lentil soup. Or beans and rice. I love beans and rice, so I would fare pretty well.... I could even feed a few guests before the end of the week!

[@TheQuaintHousewife]

That is a good way to spread the $!

[@veevee111]

@Rebel On A Trail, that's awesome planning. Meat can be pricey at times so your choices for protein are terrific.

[@JudesSims]

Thank you for your videos. I’m a 74 yo widow on an extremely low budget and I love your ideas. I’m unfortunately gluten free but I still get many good meals from you.

[@TheQuaintHousewife]

Jude, I understand your struggle. My father is your age and has many dietary restrictions. Thank you and God bless.

[@angiesmith2877]

This might be my favorite budget meal plan I have seen you do so far! All of this food looks really delicious, and I appreciate that you got plenty of protein and didn't rely heavily on beans or use peanut butter, since I can't eat those things. Very well done!

[@TheQuaintHousewife]

Thanks so much, Angie! 😊

[@corinnec.1918]

FYI, anytime you buy crushed cans, always ask for manager to give you a discount. I’ve never paid full price for a dented can. Walmart usually discounts their (store brands) dented or opened packages by 30-40%.

[@Karisa1316]

I like the wig actually ☺️ Also if the tags say a lower price than the items ring up for, they’re supposed to adjust the price for you to match the display price.

[@TheQuaintHousewife]

Thanks Karisa!. I normally would approach them for that too!

[@Hopeful-w7h]

I feel like I could use a wig- I like yours! $15 doesn’t go far these days, seems like food costs are going up every time I shop. Love this content!

[@Vivian1107]

I grew up eating plantain chips, twice fried plantains with mayoketchup, mangu (mashed plantains) and mofongo (mashed plantains with bacon, fresh crushed garlic and seasonings). My mom would top the mofongo with stewed chicken. It's amazing. I make it once in a while and I always serve it with salad and avocado.

I never would have guessed that was a wig if you hadn’t said anything! I would have thought you just went to the salon for a style. So pretty. Your meals are always so creative. $15 in Canada would leave me starving, I’m afraid. Unless I just stuck with beans and rice and oatmeal.

When I first got married in 1972 the Thoroughfare grocery store sold the extra long loaves of white bread for 10 loaves for one dollar. Heinz ketchup glass bottle was 15 cents. Now I go up to the check out with a small basket of 12 items and I have to call my bank for a loan to pay for it. I love these videos of yours. Thank you for sharing. Great job! 👍😀🌼

[@TheQuaintHousewife]

I would be nostalgic for those prices myself! I also love glass jars. My heart dropped when in the last couple of years my local store stopped selling applesauce in glass jars. When I was a kid mayo was in glass jars. Now I can't find any in glass. Thanks and XOXO

Hummus, eggs, yogurt flatbread chicken or lamb, beef fish. Cucumbers.

[@TheInfo45]

I always really love your videos because you show such diversity as opposed to other channels where it's always very simplistic or boring because they don't think outside the box. I might have done mildly something different I might have used the drippings from the first roasted chicken and saved it to make some soup with the pasta or possibly a gravy to give a richness to it so you could spread the chicken out a little further. Just little tweaks for my own taste but overall you are awesome with the way you do these videos and please keep making them. And by the way your new wig looks lovely

[@TheQuaintHousewife]

[@wildshadowstar]

Depending on what sort of pineapple you get, some people have been able to plant the top in order to produce another pineapple. But I’ve read somewhere on the internet that some species of pineapples sold in store are bred so that you can’t do that. I don’t know. I guess you could try and see if you could grow your own pineapple from the tops that you cut off.

[@kristinatidwell6563]

If you plant the top leafy part of the cut pineapple, it grows a shoot and grows another fruit.

I'm going to be honest I did not care for it much. tasted very bland to me. not horrible. just thought would taste better. this was my first time eating them. maybe will try again sometime. it only cost me .33¢.

Love your recipes, especially the plantains! I’m Cuban and we eat plantains regularly. The way we cook ripe plantains is by double frying... see below or google “tostones”: Chop the pieces larger (so that they are about an inch and a half thick or so) and fry them for about 5 minutes on all sides. Then remove and place them on a paper towel lined plate. Use a plantain press (or a folded over paper towel and a cup) to press the plantain. It should be about 1/2 an inch thick. Fry the pressed plantains until they are golden all over.
