LARGE FAMILY Meals - What We Eat When the Grocery Budget is GONE!

What meals can I pull together this week for my family of 9 when we've already spent the entire grocery budget for the month? Since there's no money left to buy groceries, I can only use what's in my pantry and stockpile. In addition, some of our meals need to be low-carb/diabetic-friendly to help keep my blood sugar in check. Check out this video to see what I came up with! (Hint: The sale items from previous weeks sure do come in handy!)

I live in Europe and stretching the budget has become a reality here as well. I‘ll make vegetable or potato soup, lentil or split pea soup, stews with cabbage, spaghetti with tomato sauce, omelettes. There are so many options. As long as you can cook, you can stretch the budget. Shop for sales whenever you can. Problem with a lot of younger people is that they can’t cook and rely on takeout or industrial produced foods. They overpay for crappy foods.

[@judyjenna-pilot553]

Same here in the U.S.A. so many people just have no clue how to cook cheaply. Most younger people dine out or get take home or like you said they purchase processed meals at super market and it's so unhealthy as well as expensive. This younger generation need to start learning to cook and budget

[@judyjenna-pilot553]

The grilled zucchini looks so good

[@judyjenna-pilot553]

You feed your family so we'll they are super blessed ❤️🙏🏻❤️

[@Sweetrottenapple]

@@judyjenna-pilot553 We have a saying in Hungarian I could translate to "Urge is high lord" It means If you are in need you gonna do what you have to do. So if the younger generation can't pay for take out or McDonald's they will have to learn how to cook.

[@Peg38542]

you are so right! the simple foods are the best :)

[@elisawestvirginiamountainm1019]

Sarah and the other kids who cook need a channel showing how they make their recipes, showing how to sew, how they build things, fix things, etc. So many kids have never had the opportunity to learn since electronics have taken over and parents are so busy anymore. Learning from another kid makes those watching get interested and those new tasks appear more doable when learning from a peer.

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

I think that's a great idea! :)

[@mitzismith4944]

I know you are working hard to stretch your food dollar as most of us ARE. I saw the pot of chicken on the stove and first thing that popped in my head was chicken and dumplings. Growing up we only got them twice a year,Thanksgiving and Christmas. When I went out on my own, I started making it myself. It's not for just holidays anymore. In fact, my mom asked me how I made mine and asked me to make it for her. As it turns out, she liked mine better!!!

[@kimma508]

Me too. My mom is a single mom and I spent a lot of time with my grandma and great grandma. I learned how to cook with them and I cherish those memories. I still can’t get the rice pudding right. My great grandma’s rice pudding is legendary in my family.

[@simoneneveragain2939]

Me too!! My mom could stretch a dollar and still feed us well. She was such a tremendous cook. I still would take her cooking and baking over the finest restaurant. I don’t know how she did it!! I try to emulate her frugality and style. No one would ever feel deprived on the limited resources she worked with. I brought my kids up with this mindset and am happy to say that they show some appreciation for that type of cooking/ love. Love your channel ♥️

Love the idea of putting all the leftovers out on the counter like a buffet. On a side note, I'm always amazed by all the things kids can do to help. I see videos from homeschoolers/homesteaders/farmers and the kids are learning as they go from the time they're little. And the adults don't seem to think twice about including and teaching them.

I'd like to comment on your chicken soup. My first attempt is still laughed at 30 yrs later. As a poor student, I boiled several pieces of chicken, to make a LARGE pot of soup. Removed the chicken, cooled it and chopped into small pieces. Prepared veggies and went to return everything to the pot and was shocked at how "unclean" the water looked. So, I poured it out, scrubbed the pot with an SOS pad & filled it with "nice clean" water. Added veggies, chicken & spices and boiled it. Served up a big bowl and found it had NO taste!! When I asked people for advice on how I'd made it, everyone laughed. Apparently, I'd made "nice CLEAN soup!" It was tasteless, but, boy was it "CLEAN!!"

[@deborahwright5717]

That is a great story, love it! Thanks for sharing with us.

I put tomato paste in my soup I cannot use tomatoes. The tomatoes paste make it red so it didn't look dirty. I used three chicken legs, frozen mix vegetable from Walmart, Okies, tomatoes paste and a half pk of rami noodles crush up. Put the noodles in last .

[@samanthafitzgerel4460]

😅😅 Too funny!! I think many of us probably have some similar stories, like that. After I got married. At 18, we had a couple over for dinner. I wanted to be fancy (🙄) and decided to cook Cornish Game Hens for the first time in my life. Long story short I baked them with the giblet bags left in them!! 😂 I was so embarrassed!!!

[@Theodorej1960]

My dear mother, who is now deceased (she lived until age 94), used to make the most delicious soup I've ever tasted. She used to keep a "soup jar" in the fridge that she'd put the week's leftover veggies in, if she had an insufficient amount left from the week's meals. Then, she'd boil a soup bone, or the carcass of a chicken and dump the contents of her soup jar in. Her soup was F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C!!!! When I asked her "What's your secret?", she told me: "Don't ever add anything to your soup that doesn't contribute to its flavor". I've followed her instructions to this day and have my own soup jar in my fridge. Even though I am a guy, I think I'm a pretty decent cook and this has enabled me to have "Mom's cooking" to this day.

When I was a young mother and had a few children, I always asked the ladies at church what they fixed for dinner because they had between 10 and 15 children. They never told me,they just said we cook whatever we have. So when I became a mother of many, then I figured it out !! you cook whatever you have and that was the truth😂 I appreciate you doing this. it probably helps a lot of people to see how to reuse what they have!
