Hi Julia! I really love your budget friendly meals. When you said that you were 26, I was like what. I thought you were at least 30, not because you look old, but because of your maturity in having a family, having a successful KZbin channel and a cook book. You really inspire me Julia to put myself out there and live my dreams to the fullest. Thank you, thank you ❣️🙏🏼💯

Happy Birthday Julia! I hope that this will be a year filled with many blessings. I love it when you share your budget friendly recipes. Just a quick story. I had a can of biscuits that I needed to use. My 12 year old suggested that we google canned biscuit recipes. We were thrilled to find a youtube video you shared over 3 years ago. We transformed those canned biscuits into the best cinnamon rolls we've eaten in a long time. You have a beautiful family. Your daughter proudly showing her plate of delicious food warmed my heart this morning.

[@JuliaPacheco]

I grew up eating that brand of tomatoes, okra and corn. Mom would brown some smoked sausage and then add the vegetables. Served over rice. If you have it, add a little Season All or Lawrys. If you like a little heat, add a splash of hot sauce. Don’t be afraid of the okra. There’s no slime when it’s canned like that.

Unfortunately for me I dont shop at the dollar tree for alot of thing's but there are a few things I do stock up on. The bacon for me was a definite no go, 4 slices for $1.25 that is not a good deal in my opinion but hey to each their own! You've got some good ideas and I will definitely look for some of these items from now on. Thanks for the video 👏

[@JaCoCop]

I agree! Only 4 slices of bacon is not a good deal. And I've had some unfortunate experiences buying lower quality meats that are cheaper, such as Bar S brand and others. They are not at all healthy either. I'd rather spend a bit more for better quality products whenever possible. And please research Great Value canned soups before buying them. They've been shown to have metal in them, so another product to not buy.

I have to say, I like the new style of video. I like that sort of raw footage type of video. Hearing what's going on as you cook kinda makes me feel a little closer to you, and your family. Almost like we're actual friends hanging out. It's amazing what you were able to create on such an extreme budget. I've done my fair share of grocery shopping at Dollar Tree because I absolutely LOVE that store. It's an amazing place to shop for DIY products, but I also love buying some of my groceries there (especially snack foods) as well. I know that some people rely on Dollar Tree for their groceries because it's all that they can afford, so I love that they are expanding their freezer sections. I've seen a lot of people saying that they refuse to shop there because of the price increase, but let's be honest; you're not going to find a lot of their items any cheaper somewhere else. Yes, it is better to buy SOME things elsewhere, but you simply cannot beat their prices on most things. I recently learned that they will be lowering prices back down to $1 on some items. Not everything, but I think the article said they will be reducing prices on about 300 product's. They have definitely stepped up their game in the last couple of years. I love the plus section as well, and I love that they are starting to offer more name brand items at about the same price point as your larger stores.

[@JuliaPacheco]

That is wonderful feedback! Thank you so very much for sharing that with me and I thought I heard they were decreasing their freezer and refrigerated sections. Ha ha! Anyway, I really do appreciate your comment it definitely helps me as I create my videos💜💜

Well thank you so very much! I’m sure you have a wonderful day tomorrow and thank you so much for your positive feedback about this video😊

I appreciate Julia's videos in total, but especially love how personal this one is. Oh my heart when the little one showed her plate! It is so good to see her family enjoying the meals. Buy her cookbook! It is wonderful for people who don't want complicated cooking but easy, budget friendly, good meals. Julia: do more Dollar Tree videos! This was great!

[@marilynbenjamin1]

I may not be the person you think I am. But I love your videos and your cookbook. I have never posted to you before but absolutely love your videos. You are an inspiration to everyone who wants to be a cook but is intimidated by the cost and the skills needed. You keep doing you bc you are an inspiration. I would be happy to discuss and love your cookbook! As an experienced mom, I wish I had access to these videos when I was younger.

[@JuliaPacheco]

You are just so wonderful, Marilyn💜💜 Thank you thank you so very much! Your positive feedback helps me so very much as I create my videos and I sure do appreciate your great support. And thank you so very much for your wonderful feedback about my cookbook!💜💜
