[@mistythompson1398]

Growing up, we had the Banquet family meal at Thanksgiving every year. It was only my mom, my sister, and me; my mom did not eat meat. I remember the pieces being thicker, but there was still a lot of gravy. She would make homemade mashed potatoes, canned green beans, and those crescent rolls. My sister and I loved the extra gravy because we could put it on our mashed potatoes. It is a good memory now as my mom suffers from late-stage dementia, and we do not spend the holidays together anymore. (Before anyone says anything she cannot handle the anxiety of so many people around, it is not that we don't want to.)

I tend to buy a turkey thigh and a sweet potato (which I bake), and add broccoli. That does it for me.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

A very simple but classic Thanksgiving combination!

[@The3Storms]

That sounds great, thank you for the idea to save for later.

[@Forkemdvls]

I like to buy a frozen turkey breast and crockpot it with some gravy and make stovetop stuffing. My favorite part of Thanksgiving leftovers are the turkey sandwiches for days,

[@The3Storms]

Everyone has a budget, a palate, and a favorite part of a holiday dinner and your honest reviews help people make informed selections for themselves, thank you.

[@ellefirebrand]

I love this. Your compassion for others is beautiful.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Thank you, I appreciate that!

[@racheladams5299]

Last year I came down with Covid right at Thanksgiving so needless to say I spent Thanksgiving by myself. Having just watched your video I had my son pick up two Lean Cuisine dinners for me to eat on Thanksgiving Day while everyone was enjoying a traditional dinner at my son’s house. I was so thankful for your review last year as I was able to enjoy a fairly good meal too.

[@patrice1966]

I think a better option than any of those meals would be to buy a couple of thick slices of a good deli turkey along with a jar of gravy, a packet of instant flavored mashed potatoes (the type that only requires water) and a box of stuffing mix. You’d get a larger quantity of food with more flavor and everything could still be made in the microwave. If you bought the mashed potatoes, stuffing mix and jarred gravy at Dollar Tree they’d cost $1.25 each but many stores sell them cheaper during the holiday season so you could save a bit of the cost buying them on sale. The gravy would just have to be heated and served and give you more flavor and product for your meal. If I was eating a microwave only Thanksgiving dinner I would go with the option I presented. It would be far better flavor wise than any of the frozen boxed meals for about the same price. Considering that the mashed potatoes and stuffing mix have 3-4 portions in each as would the gravy, you’d have 3-4 meals for about the same amount of money as a subpar frozen meals. You could make up plates from the extra portions and freeze them to have for Christmas.

[@Lottie_Girl]

She's done this multiple times in previous years for her annual Thanksgiving dinner videos. You can find the videos on her page 😊 I think her point here was to give an honest review on frozen dinners for people who only have the option of buying a single item with everything already in it, that could be heated in the microwave. ❤

[@poketographyyy]

Thank you for reviewing this! I know it can be costly to add these all up so I really appreciate your time and effort in making these and being so in-depth, too. For those who live alone or need a quick accessible option, it's great to have someone like you being a guide. Adding volume with extra vegetables and meat is always an option with these too, I've learned! Same with adding your own sauces. Hormel is proving that not everything that is more expensive is better... Having your brightness after the sourness from last night is much needed. Stay safe, Rebecca!

[@itslauramichelle992]

I miss the cranberry sauce that used to come with these types of meals

[@DollarTreeDinners]

oh yeah that's missing too! I didn't think about cranberry sauce

[@vanniceabigelow6074]

Thank you. Just my mom and I for dinner. We don’t eat big meals and don’t need tons of leftovers. I will get a Marie Calendar’s dinner and add a veggie and an individual pie.

[@nmbat5036]

Adding a canned vegetable, the canned apple and a bread option like the dinner rolls that are on sale around Thanksgiving or even one of the inexpensive Italian loaves from the bakery section paired with the Marie Callender’s would be a great meal for two. It would end up around $5 or $6 per person. Another dessert option could be the little pies you find in the bakery section. They’re inexpensive and usually lots of flavors to choose from. If you’re limited to Dollar Tree or Dollar General there are tons of dessert options and a loaf of regular sandwich bread is always a good choice. It was usually our bread option for dinners growing up in a low income household and it’s still a solid choice today. I really love the amount of thought and care you put into all your videos but especially the holiday dinner ones ❤

[@DollarTreeDinners]

You’re welcome, and I appreciate the kind words! I’m always looking for budget-friendly meal ideas.

[@wdjones4735]

A substitution for just the turkey and gravy. I’d get the Oscar Mayer Carving Board Turkey 7.5 oz, $4.49 an envelope of Turkey gravy .99 cents. Then you could add Idahoan instant mashed potatoes $1.50, Fry’s brand Stuffing $1, Fry’s brand frozen mixed veg $1.00 and Hostess single server apple pie $1.50. This is all at my Kroger/Fry’s You could easily get 2 small meals BTW, I got a whole frozen turkey for $11….so, when I buy all the fixings above…dinner for 4 will be $20 I’m very frugal🙂👍🏻 Thank you for sharing

[@DollarTreeDinners]

I absolutely love the carving board turkey but sadly none of the stores around me seem to carry it anymore. I wonder if it’s being discontinued

[@Tbird1549]

I have spent many Thanksgiving eating these meals. I like the lean cuisine one and buy mashed potatoes and save the apples for a real dessert. Thank you for doing this again. I also had pepper to my microwaveable meals.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

I could totally see adding a small packet of mashed potatoes to it, it was fantastic

[@valerie718]

Great video. Thanks for taking one for the team and taste testing all of these meals for us.

[@lizdowdy2142]

Thank you for the review. I usually go to a Chinese buffet with my friends for Thanksgiving but I would still like a traditional thanksgiving dinner. Now I can have one.

[@SauerPatchGardening]

Something I used to get years ago was a Jenny-O turkey " roast", They had 2 versions, one was all white meat and the other was a combo of white and dark. It came with gravy and could be cooked in the microwave. I had my first baby when I was 16..(yes..16. )I lived in a little tiny rental house, there was only a tiny apartment size stove, but, the oven didn't work. Just the burners, so, I earned to make meals using an electric skillet, that my grandma gave me, crock pot, and microwave. Those turkey roasts were something I got from a program called "Come Share" , you paid $12, did 2 hours of volunteer work at certain places where they needed help, there was a list of places that participated, and then there was a designated place where a truck would come, and deliver food. The place for me was the catholic church across the street from my house, each participant got $50 worth of food, frozen meat, fresh produce, canned goods. You got a grocery bag, and went around tables and picked up 1 of each thing being offered. That program saved our life alot of times, And I learned how to make so many different things because we never knew what would be in that grocery haul. My daughter is 41 now, Im 57 and I have 3 grandchildren. I also have a 31 year old son. Everything worked out. This program was active in the m8d 80's my daughter was in kindergarten, so, 1985ish. Wish it was still going on. I'd still do it

[@bettybutler3327]

Yes, i agree, deli oven roasted turkey, you can buy however much you need at deli. Add your own gravy chioce and sides. As a diabetic i would do real potatoes and brocolli or Brussel sprouts.

[@zukiyasha12]

As a diabetic as well that sounds really wonderful to plan.

[@jbulie1853]

The nice thing about the banquet turkey swimming in gravy is you can use the gravy to go over your mashed potatoes...I do that when I buy the Salisbury steaks

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Definitely would have more than enough for putting over some taters! But I do still think it’s deceptive from a packaging standpoint for it to be 75% gravy

[@jbulie1853]

@DollarTreeDinners i agree. 6 pieces of turkey is wild for the amount of gravy there is. But from a budget standpoint if you're only feeding one or 2 people and budget is tight it's one less item you have to buy (gravy wise)

[@tinashort9098]

Growing up fairly poor in rural VA a Banquet Meal was a treat for us😂. We called them TV dinners and they came in an aluminum pan with 3 sections. I remember the turkey being full of gristles and just yucky! We ate them though because like I said it was a rare treat!!

[@DollarTreeDinners]

I wish tv dinners still came in aluminum trays, but then they wouldn’t be microwavable I suppose so it’s a trade off

[@maggie2936-q1m]

I’ve always thought frozen dinners tasted better cooked in the oven. I don’t think the stuffing would be so mushy oven cooked. IMO, ovens produce better textures than does the microwave. But I do understand the choices are based on limited cooking appliances.

[@03733]

People can actually go to any Supermarket go to the deli counter and you can get very thick cuts of turkey instead of using it for sandwich meat you make it a thicker cut for your turkey Thanksgiving that tastes amazing and you pay way less than you do on the frozen meals and they're way more cost-effective you can get four large slabs of turkey from the deli department for like five something. Food for thought. ❤❤❤

For many years we were not near family and if we didn’t get an invite anywhere or host a Friendsgiving, we had a plan. We long ago figured out all we cared about was pumpkin pie, so I made a pie and we spent all day eating it :) Now, I pick up some ribs or brisket and make side dishes and pie. We are turkey deniers :) I miss the OG metal tray Swansons turkey dinner, it was the best 😢

[@shermarkham6376]

@Susanfuzz I miss the metal trays too.

[@Tinker876]

The banquet turkey is chopped and formed possibly having other things added whereas the other meals were actual turkey that isn’t modified. Just roasted & sliced. That matters a great deal in the price point.

[@thesoapingllamas5131]

Really love your videos. Made the Wendy's chilli yesterday and today made the oats breakfast bars. I'm working in Germany, from South Africa, and I'm using these recipes to budget.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

that is so amazing, thank you for sharing! I'm glad it's internationally helpful!

[@mandalynn4571]

My husband and I decided to get a rotisserie chicken 36oz ($6.00) 5lbs of potatoes ($2.75) Jiffy corn mix(0.50x3=1.50) Turkey gravy mix ($0.67) which totals $10.92 I didn't include any seasoning or things I have already on hand. What kind of shocks me is the cost of some of those dinners almost equals to what I spent for our Thanksgiving dinner, I am not knocking what people choose or can afford but just really shocks me the price and portion of some of them.

[@fennajarina]

Love your videos 😊 you are so compassionate and your character always shines. You try your best to help and care for people less fortunate. You are a very admirable person. Keep being you!

[@Natalie-ym8pj]

I'm laughing because I'm 55 and I LOVE the little banquet turkey dressing and peas haha. I don't think about what the turkey mystery meat really is lol.

[@five_pennies]

Hormel also makes a shelf stable turkey and dressing AND a chicken and dressing. I see them at all the usual grocery stores, plus Family Dollar/Dollar General. I like the gravy in the turkey one better. It's about what you would expect, quality wise, but it's decent for what it is. Downside, there's no veggies, but upside, it's perfectly edible without microwaving (although it is better when it's hot).

[@allenguthrie2317]

I loved my grandma's stuffing, it was almost a soup. My mom's was great also because it was moist but not mushy and had crispy edges that my sisters and I fought for.

[@averybrown536]

Love your videos Rebecca, your recipes and reviews are a game changer in the kitchen

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Thanks so much! I appreciate it!

[@starophie]

i know the hormel square table was expensive, and i haven't tried the turkey - but the hormel square table beef (i forget what it's called exactly but there are two different kinds that are basically the same) is SO good and is one of our favorite mains to pair with a starch and a veggie. it's usually about $11 at stop and shop/giant/martin's in my area, but it often goes on sale for $6.99. it's like pot roast except you can make it in the microwave 😊

[@stacyrussell460]

Love these kind of videos. Sometimes all you need is a microwave meal & it really helps if the product tastes good.

[@naturefeeder5748]

If you don’t mind no stuffing, I would recommend the Marie Callender’s Honey Roasted Turkey dinner. It does have potatoes and the vegetables are a broccoli mix, but the turkey is pretty good. It is something that I have occasionally when my husband is out of town on business, but I want a full meal without the work of cooking it all.

[@chels05]

You always respond calmly, clearly, and kindly to unempathetic/judgmental commenters, and I truly respect that because I don’t know if I would be able to do the same. I think your attitude helps you reach and educate so many people and I hope to be more like you in the future! ❤

[@robinabernathy2829]

NOW is the time to find good deals. That meal you made last year with the smoked turkey leg was perfect. If you play it right you can catch those reduced price at some places.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Nice review. I'm a sucker for cranberry sauce and figure that would dress up any of these meals enough for me. Basic Banquet or Marie Callendar with a good dollop of cranberry sauce and a few slices of an orange. Lol, I'm ready for Thanksgiving.

[@kdcats4092]

Last couple of years we have had family who were not feeling well during the holidays so no get togethers. My go to has been chicken casserole made with canned chicken, stove top and cream of chicken soup. I like that better than turkey anyway.

[@sharonr.177]

Banquet has fruit pot pies! They are pretty good! They would make an excellent dessert option for 1 or 2 people and are usually about the same price as the cheaper Banquet dinners.

[@The3Storms]

Really! Thank you, I had no idea.

[@stacyrussell460]

I agree with you on your Banquet turkey assessment. I like gravy with my turkey, not gravy with a side of turkey. Great video.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

It was a total gravy overload, right?

[@stacyrussell460]

@DollarTreeDinners it reminds me of the OnCor brand turkey & gravy. Way more gravy than turkey. I would rather buy a pound of deli turkey (sliced thick) & make my own gravy 😂.

[@shermarkham6376]

You are awesome! I'm thankful for you.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Thank you, that means a lot!

[@randymolina3405]

Rebecca, can you do the Walmart Thanksgiving dinner?

[@rebeccaramsey1274]

I would really LOVE to see you do a food pantry menu. So either get in touch with a pantry and find out what all a person might get for that month or week, or find out from a person that receives a box. Try to make as many meals as possible with as little additional ingredients as possible, or supplement a month of meals and spend as little as possible. Wouldn't have to be as big as all that though. Creative ways to use your food pantry box. I know it would be great and helpful no matter what you did. I know you already use things like beans and rice from scratch that people tend to get. ❤️

[@Angelbee-u3p]

Rebecca, I love your reviews. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed and beautiful day.

[@loriloristuff]

Oh- I have done this sort of thing in my past. It's so kind of you, Rebecca, to review these. It will help those who are buying one as their meal. Me- not a fan of turkey. Not exactly a fan of ham. We have steak or pork roast, venison if we can get it, and either capons or a couple pheasants, with sides. The Pilgrims didn't eat (just) turkey, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, canned cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie.

[@tracyhardwick2695]

The Hungry Man use to come with the cranberries. Then it was changed to the apples and back to cranberries. We don’t do a lot of tv dinners but the Hungry Man turkey dinner is my husbands favorite.

[@TheMeganExperience]

They make that same lean cuisine but with sweet potatoes instead of apples and it’s actually pretty dang good! I would pair it with a Hawaiian roll and some lingonberry jam for added flavor.

[@theoloragoff]

I agree, I made a Turkey dinner using deli turkey, box stuffing and packet gravy. Mix the stuffing, stuff the turkey with the stuffing in a roll and put gravy over it. You can make it for around $10 and it is not bad for a small group.

[@bettyann7273]

I drink a glass of water with frozen dinners to feel fuller.

[@trwhatever8208]

I was really excited to see that you had a video out. And thanksgiving? That's perfect. Also I have never noticed that you scrape your teeth on the fork. And if you do I could care less. Just going to put my little vote in right there

[@acaliaaidras5012]

I was a bit confused by "it's not a true mixed vegetable because it's corn, green beans, and carrots." I don't think there's any standard for what vegetables make up the term "mixed". Three different vegetables is, indeed, mixed vegetables. 😆

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Every Mixed vegetable you buy usually have all of the above and peas

[@NoOneUKnow-c3y]

I used to buy those banquet turkey trays and they were different. When they changed them, i stopped buying them. But, I had always served it over rice and also some toast. It was a fast, cheap meal that I could feed my family when I was on a tight budget. I have never tried any of the others.

[@sherryarmstrong4683]

We always used the banquet sliced turkey for hot turkey sandwiches with mashed potatoes. So that takes care of a lot of gravy.

[@tanishahogan9396]

Not going to lie, the family size Banquet turkey thing was one of my favorite meals as a kid. My mom would make her amazing mashed potatoes and fry some corn and we would heat up the Banquet turkey box...I loved their gravy so I was glad they gave so much sauce (to be fair, they did give more turkey in the package quite a few years ago). I think it used to be similar meat to the one in their individual dinners.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Haha I went to go stir it and had an internal thought “where’s the turkey?”

[@Kimberly-pi8my]

Thanks for the review! I put gravy on literally everything except dessert on Thanksgiving so that extra gravy one was right up my alley! I can actually do without the turkey, but don't mess with my gravy! 😂

[@startswithabang]

Great video and some very surprising results! Good to know also for people like me who sometimes want thanksgiving type food during other times of the year

[@AWanderingEye]

Before you leave the East coast, can you do one of your favorite meals that likely won't be available in Washington (where you are moving)? I'm thinking a Smoked Va Ham...but you pick since you guys have to eat it! Or, do a tour of items unique to that area that aren't available elsewhere...Do they still have Charles' chips deliveries? It's been ages since my family lived in Norfolk, Va. Thanks, Rebecca!

[@The3Storms]

👀 please consider doing a Kentucky hot brown as a Thanksgiving (also leftover) option. Spouse and I are often in separate locations for holidays but cook the same meal to share the holiday best we can. This one was relatively simple AND tasty.

[@janellestuckey8477]

I thought about you 2 nights ago when I ate a Stoufers turkey and stuffing dinner . I remember you not liking that one . I love it, I don’t like the sticky mashed potatoes but the gravy and stuffing is so good.

[@bobstubesocks]

I think a 7.5 oz pack of carving board style deli Turkey is just over $4-add a higher quality gravy mix like Kinders (you can make packet gravy in microwave!) and I think you could have something pretty delicious for like 6 bucks!

[@SabrinaMarie123.]

I really like the Marie callendars , it’s my go to TV dinner! Super filling and delicious! Just add salt and pepper to the potatoes ❤️

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Sounds great!

[@janiehowington7622]

One thought: in some areas of the country we would put the gravy on the turkey, maybe a bit on the dressing/stuffing and most of it on the mashed potatoes, which certainly gives the spuds some flavor.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

That's a great way to use the gravy!

[@PeggyMeeter]

Marie Calendar frozen dinners are my favorite.

[@michellesmith4508]

Hi Rebecca! You should try to recreate the turkey and gravy. Walmart/ DG I know Walmart has a thick cut turkey deli meat use that and a jar of turkey gravy. A box stuffing or instant potatoes. I think you might be able to pull off a thanksgiving for 2 for $10 or $15 with that as a base.

[@hoosiermama16]

I loved the banquet turkey meal as a kid, growing up in a 1 parent household.

[@ruthsnively7248]

I love your videos, Rebecca. You have such a sweet and beautiful spirit. Thank you.

[@christineciccone2201]

Aldi target and Walmart are all doing budget friendly FULL meals where you get a turkey and all the trimmings. Target is only 30 I think Aldi is 47 and I’m not sure what Walmart is but they are all very affordable income with everything absolutely everything something to look into. It’s only four of us so I think I’m going to go with the target meal, but Aldi is actually giving you a butterball turkey.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

I am hoping to do a video this year discussing the target thanksgiving dinner. I looked at what it came with and it doesn’t look like much, I’m curious as to how much more I would have to spend to make it a complete meal since it only includes some basic items

[@teamshoemaker]

Someone who has a relatively established Pantry but for some reason gets Uninvited to dinner or someone in their family gets ill --getting the one with the most sauce would allow you to have enough gravy without having to make it separately for potatoes and other things that they already have so it would be a great one-off to purchase for a main dish.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

There's "enough sauce" and then there's "the amount of sauce the banquet meal came with" and they are on two different levels LOL

[@sheilalemley8722]

Deli turkey. Stove top stuffing, prepared. Gravey. Stuffing on deli turkey, roll. Gravey over all. Bake.

I always buy the Hormel Turkey and gravy, but i mix in a can of Turkey gravy with it. Very good.

[@Nesie1965]

I like the other Hormel table items....I had bought the turkey, but it expired while i was in the hospital. I had planned to have it with stove top as a quickie meal....I have the banquet turkey in the freezer at the moment.

[@safyneanais6235]

I bought the Hormel last weekend. It is just me & my husband. He doesn't like turkey. Thank you for the review. I am going to doctor that one up some more. I was already planning to use a different gravy.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Definitely swap the gravy, the turkey itself you'll be happy with :)

[@donkeykong1234]

i used to shop like this when i was in college. all box dinners, and then i'd actually get self conscious at checkout and get some bananas, juice and token fruit to act like i don't live on frozen dinners lol

[@kaylafletcher4699]

So I use to buy the turkey banquet two packs for my family made home mashed potatoes so instead of making extra gravy I use the gravy with the turkey. But now our grocery stores don't sell the turkey banquet family size anymore.

I had axrecipe for the Banquet turkey. You add a package of stovetop stuffing on top. The extra gravy makes it good. Cook the turkey while preparing stovetop dresding.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Extra gravy is great! this much gravy is a bit much considering how little turkey was actually in it. it's feels like they are intentionally being deceptive to buyers
