Chicken quarters are still the cheapest, but I used to get them for $5 for a 10lb bag, and then because they weren't as popular as chicken breast they'd get clearanced and I could pick them up for $3. I miss that a lot, I buy them and split them into single and double packs for the freezer, or cook all of them at once to put shredded meat in the freezer, use the bones for broth. There's such a great value with quarters, and they are way cheaper and easier to work with than a whole chicken.

[@breannahorton]

As a side note for anyone new to buying chicken quarters, those bags are "10 lbs" so there's always going to be the 10lbs but as they aren't processing them more they wont cut one in half to make it exact. If you want to be the person like I am, pick them all up- there's going to be heavier ones. It might be the difference of one bag having 10.1lbs and one having 11lbs. Also count the quarters in the bag- the bones add to the weight so for equal weight the one with 7 will have less meat than one with 6

[@DailyJAB]

I love those 10 lb bags of leg quarters and pick them up whenever i can.

[@AluminumCloud74]

I found chicken quarters at WM for .99/lb a couple months ago and I bought 10 pounds for the freezer. Deals are definitely out there, it’s more fun when you have a stocked freezer and can cherry pick the best deals.

[@sherilynalexnder897]

I would never have thought to freeze mashed potatoes in swirled piles on a pan, that's a great idea!

[@JenniferPerryMyScraproom]

A time saver that I like to do is to make mashed potatoes and squish them flat in a gallon size baggie - THEN I mix up a meatloaf (raw) and squish it flat into a separate gallon size baggie and then freeze both and store together in the freezer. When I am feeling super lazy I can just take them out to defrost. The cook in the oven same time and temperature for my oven so it is easy peasy. Just add a salad and done!

[@suegeorge998]

Hi! I'm reorganizing my pantry and cleaning the floors. I only work on it a few times a week. I didn't work on it at all today, because I've been canning. I canned tomatoes from my garden and I went shopping earlier today and bought bulk sausage and I canned that too. I found a 5 pound bag of potatoes that I had misplaced that had a ton of eyes. Every. Single. Potato. So I stuck them in the ground and added that to my garden. They are doing beautifully and I'm honestly shocked because I started them in early summer. I think I'll have plenty of potatoes!

[@janeprepper177]

I was blessed with an extra $120 for groceries and came STRAIGHT to your videos. Super helpful, especially these days. Thank you 💖

[@melodyemcgroarty4058]

I am really enjoying your videos and learning a lot and I am in my eighth decade. Just finished reorganizing my pantry and am working on an inventory. It is just my husband and I but my husband has multiple health issues so this time I am going to be very selective in my pantry building. Taking all of your good advice!

[@binamom2797]

Thanks for this weeks video…I only shop once a month for my groceries as I’m on an incredibly tight budget…so no shopping this week. However I did write down our most common meals so this week I’m breaking them down onto recipe cards so I can then make my food storage inventory sheet and start shopping sales (and the one for now 2 for later)…putting what you’ve taught me into practice!

[@angelamarcinkevich9202]

Your huge pantry was a blessing during pandemic

[@shelbylynnwilliams8520]

Oh you our long term food storage & pantry are awesome.

[@cindysandhu7281]

Kimmy, you make everything look so easy and your food storage is amazing! Where I live in Alaska, food prices are outrageous so I am doing what I can to make everything stretch. I was spending around $250 every 2 weeks and it has literally doubled. CRAZY! I want to say how much I enjoy your channel because seriously you have so much inspiration and motivation that I need. Thanks for all you give and blessings to you and your family. 💕

[@savanah1407]

Thank you for the Basmati rice being a lower glycemic tip!

[@tinablum9089]

You did inspire me to work on my pantry items. I already had decantered alot of my items..well..well...upon decantoring some chocolte chips...putting them back onto the shelf...the shelf brackets acually broke...uuugghh..lol...so I had to unload the wntire shelf...resecure the shelf...and restock that shelf...it acually have me the motivation that I needed to take out the wire shelves..and replace with wood...make the pantry prettier...thanks!

[@leannreid5961]

I have a tip to share re: batteries! Watch the Lowe's Black Friday ads, you can usually get a large pack for $5. That's when I stock up on batteries, but I'm learning so much from your channel! I recently made my husband a stash of breakfast sandwiches and bowls for the freezer! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@rachelberndt1835]

Hi Kimmy, You look so good lately! You have always been poised and put together, but I can tell your diligence with diet is paying off!

[@sherilynalexnder897]

Whew! I feel so much better now after seeing your pile of multiple sizes/LC tortillas, lol. Same girl, same.

[@dessebasey2750]

I just put up 12 pint jars of venison sausage. I plan on doing one or two canning sessions everyday possible. I need to clear out my freezers just incase. I have been stocking up on Bob Evans or Tennessee Pride country sausage rolls. Stay safe and prepared! Under $4 each. Biscuits and gravy, spaghetti, meatballs..

[@JessieLeeBerry]

My dad will clean the corn husk and butter and season the corn, then put the husk back on the corn and grill it. I don't know how, but it completely changes the flavor profile. 😊

[@tiffanymengor217]

We love putting fresh berries on our salad as well with mixed nuts and berries then too with oil and vinegar. So good

[@midlifemama8420]

Love it! Doing similar. It’s just common sense. Frugal over fancy. It’s amazing how much variety you can have across similar ingredients. 😊

[@jaylc4253]

I did not know that about basmati rice...good to know!! I love jasmine rice too but always looking for lower glycemic options. Thanks for that info!

[@NatachaKemp]

Hey Kimmy! Loving your pantry prep videos. I shopped at Walmart and found some great deals. 👍🏾Plant those sprouting potatoes. You’ll have a nice harvest. 😀

[@gwenstone9685]

We put the Costco pre cooked bacon in the toaster over to make it crispy. The can chicken is also a great option

[@TheHumbleHome24]

Whatever you are doing is working! You look so different, you have always looked amazing but it is a different amazing. (If that makes sense) Love your channel!

[@christydiaz30]

I would love if she can share what she has done. She looks awesome!

[@ceciliacalvin207]

Another use for grilled corn, to jazz up corn chowder soup.

[@andrea.6405]

Wow. All those egg replacements and butter powders arent even available here but sound so handy.

[@samanthacraft1077]

Girl, I need to restock my larder, I have stuff on the floor too. Today is a rain day, I watched this video while folding laundry, you inspired me to get down there and get the stuff on the shelves! I inventory mine too, but that can wait, just getting it on the shelves will help a ton! ❤️

[@cynthiaordonezgrana1676]

Your planner and rotating pantry are my favorites! ❤️

[@jenitha33]

Aw Kimmy you looking great.Im barely catching up on your videos. Love your pantry stock videos.

[@katemurphy4985]

I just cleaned out my pantry after going to Sam's and me and my daughter took a couple boxes of canned veggies, soups and odds and ends to the local food Bank. I'm able to restock and hopyfully this helped a couple families. Love your videos. You look so beauiful and refresh whats your secret😍

[@lindaholliday4536]

Hi Kimmy,one of the things you can do with ends of your lettuce is regrow. You can also do ends of green onions, celery. I love you storage room. I pressure can so I do have alot of extra food. I dehydrate and make spinach, tomato, blueberry powders,it's a wonderful thing😃. I look forward to your next video.

[@jenkupfer3236]

I have found that Kirkland Signature (Costco brand) AA and AAA batteries are always a better deal than any name brand or other store brand batteries. They perform really, really well!

[@Tazzy5]

That butter powder sounds awesome! Just ordered some.

[@Kiki-ge4lm]

Love the music in this video.

[@jenibartling332]

I am a new at prepping and pantry stock.. Love this.

[@danilove5235]

Girl, you've slimmed down. I first noticed it in your face and now I can tell in your upper body too. Congrats, and could you please share a little on that process? Many of us could use the encouragement and tips!

[@rebeccataylor-castelblanco2872]

June 21 I got the 4Patriots (3/month), 3 months of food, 25 year survival food. And 2 days ago, I got a 20lbs of rice. And (because of you) a tub.

[@BettyHorn]

We're taking a page from your book and not going to the store this week. We have plenty in our pantry. I want to see how imaginative I can be. Thanks for your inspiration!

[@jamiekonz9151]

I always enjoy seeing your stock room.

[@bittylovin7569]

I can buy (Idaho) (2) 1/4 chk for $2-3 tops and I freezer each individually and make soups or need extra chicken for dinner, broth etc.

[@Sewlimitless]

Great video! I love your energy. I'm going to work on finding more space in my pantry. There's things (non-food items) that I can move someplace else to make more space. I'm learning so much about food storage from you. Thanks for sharing!

[@juliespencer1164]

great video Kimmy, I have learned so much about food storage and freezer meals from your channel thank you so much. God bless you and your family. many thanks Julie from the UK. xxx

[@suzannelalonde1139]

I love watching your videos. You are so informative, I just don’t know how you keep up with all the things that you do .

[@terryrutherford4450]

When I'm putting my stuff in my pantry I write the expiration date on it with a sharpie. It helps to see what's expiring first and to make sure the oldest is in front.

[@angelajones9369]

Love your videos. You are very good on giving advice to make food stretch. No waste.

[@GardeningWarrior]

You just reminded me I need to inventory all of my pantry items

[@pamelawolfe3844]

Loving all your ideas and wonderful information. Thank you.

[@carynwood9158]

I have my 3 year pantry. Then I got sick and can't eat most of it anymore. I cook batch meals out of it for my husband and freeze since I was cooking 2x per meal. At least I can eat the canned vegetables....

[@DJ-rv3ew]

For tortillas you can take a pack of 10 and roll each of them up into the shape of a straw and freeze. Keep in same bag they came in and take one or two out at a time as needed :)

[@annlockey8552]

Organise pantry and freezer related check rotate x Thank you fir your inspirations x

[@t.g.7180]

I’ve found washing my produce and putting them in air tight containers keeps them fresher a lot longer. Same with lettuce & I put a few paper towels in with it. I’m cooking up a bunch of chicken today too so I can have strawberry/chicken salads for dinner this week. Your channel is very informative 👍

[@Michelle-oz1jc]

I just learned this about strawberries. They last much longer.

[@robynfail8018]

We cook butternut squash and add to rice. A great side.

[@sherilynalexnder897]

We have a small house. 1-car garage, no basement (south FL), so I have very limited storage space. I have one 7-cft deep freezer, and the side/side fridge/freezer in the kitchen. I'm considering making room for a second deep freezer in our laundry room, but that will make things feel very squeezed in there. If only we had a crystal ball, right? For now, I'm as stocked as I can be on chicken breasts (the meat we eat most of), so my ongoing approach to chicken is to buy a flat pack every ten days or so, and meal prep three breasts for the week (on salads for lunch, plus dinner the night I grill it), and freeze the other 2-3 breasts. It's allowing me to stay stocked, and still keep monthly grocery spending down.

[@anitrab8139]

I bought chicken legs and thighs, bone in and skin on for .99 a pound this week at Fred Meyer (Kroger) and I'll freeze them. A few weeks ago I bought 5 dozen eggs for 1.99 so I bought 2 packs and have been making quiche and egg bakes for breakfast to use them up. Quiche freezes beautifully. Also hard boiled eggs for snacks and lunch, and also deviled eggs and egg salad. We even scrambled some plain for the dogs 🐕

[@mollybelland683]

I am working on getting my pantry organized.. it has become quite a mess! I want to make sure we are using things up before they go bad! Thanks for sharing your pantry with us!! It is inspiring!

[@JenniferPerryMyScraproom]

Thank you for the information on the egg replacement for baking. It was exactly what I was looking for.

[@onlybev1]

would live to see how you freeze dry. Thanks Bev from Oklahoma

[@wyomom7260]

We love having the dehydrated butter. I've experimented with it quite a bit and found that it will go moldy (when mixed up for use) if not used up within about a week. So, don't go making a huge batch thinking it'll last you like a tub of butter.

[@mehtarelingolien]

Can you freeze it?

[@wyomom7260]

@@mehtarelingolien I don't see why not! 😃

[@mrseliephant]

Thank you for sharing your days with us. I would love to see more cooking videos with long term food storage and also a freeze drier review with a tutorial, please and thank you. :)

[@tammiemonahan9644]

Freeze Dry those Skittles! That's the reason that I bought my freeze dryer. Once we move to Idaho in a couple months, I'll be starting a small Woman Owned business of Freeze Dried Candy and Skittles is one of the main ones I want to make. They are SO good. I am not a Skittle lover but when they're dried they totally change and are addicting....

I l8ve in NE ga. Chicken houses snd plants everywhere. Chicken 8s high, sggs trippled in prive

Soooooo grateful for this video! I am new to food storage and just starting my storage pantry. You are so realistic. Thank you 🙏🏾 Watching some videos seem unattainable or so perfect. I love how you show how to use this in a practical way! I’m subbing !

[@cheritovar9382]

This week at our local grocery store in MN a whole chicken is 99 cents a pound 😲

[@amandaforeman2626]

I got whole chickens for 97cents a pound ! Bought 6 and taught my youngest niece how to break down chickens ! We got a dozen legs , boneless skinless breasts , thighs , and wings ! Such a useful skill! Go get you some yummy chickens !

[@lauradillon8139]

We use those same shelves for our everyday pantry, and they are so nice! I just wish they had a buffer on the edges so I can stop accidently pushing things off the back and sides,

[@MrsDoubleDW]

Thankfully, my Aldi has kept the boneless, skinless chicken breast down at $1.99 per pound. So every week that I shop there, if there is a pack, I buy one (ONE). To keep my stock supply up. Trying to be considerate of others while also feeding my family well on a budget ❤️

[@robinfilby5977]

I want to buy your quarterly planner. I would love to see a list each month like your videos to start my food pantry.

[@icevoss9917]

Wow butter and egg powder, that's amazing, I don't think we get that over here....but I have dry mash potatoes and milk powder

[@kiki4795]

You can marinade your chicken and or coat your corn for grilling with mayonaise or garlic aioli 😍 It's delicious and super easy.

[@kourtneycbify]

Thank you Kimmy for such a great and informative video ❤ These tips help out, especially in these times 🍵

[@wethemwanderers5923]

Oh my gosh! I can't believe the price of food at the moment. Here in New Zealand chicken breast goes for about $14 a kg (about 2.2lbs) same goes for ground beef which is roughly the same price. Alot of the stores have done a "price freeze" while we're in winter time to make food more affordable for families. That helps when the powerbills are coming in over $300 a month just to keep the homes warm 😣

[@kdonor]

I scored on mayonnaise for .45 per jar. at a discount store.

[@kathymccallister9738]

Kimmy, do you take your price book with you when shopping so you can remember the best price? Hope you show us how to do the price book soon. I've been going back thru all the videos taking notes. Been getting lots of info and motivation from your videos!

If I don't have it on me I take pictures of the products on my phone.

Oh my gosh- I miss Winco. We had a couple in California, but we've been in Jacksonville for the last 16 years. No Winco! and grocery prices here are ridiculously high. 88 cents for grapes? Grapes are usually about 2.99/lb here :( I think it's time to move lol

[@Rollergirl601]

Love your videos! You are so fun to watch. Our food storage is very similar but you have really helped me improve mine. But Im jealous of your shopping options. We have a Walmart which is an hour away and Costco is almost 3 hours away. I really miss Winco. Their bulk bins were awesome. My husband works on the other side of the state we live in so I have him do Costco runs for me at least. 😂I’m a Tide girl. I’ve tried various other brands over the years but always come back to tide. I keep 6 in hand at all times!

[@sharongypsydove6080]

hello Ms kimmy. did you know that Costco's Kirkland batteries are made by Duracell...😉

[@amy11228]

That's really interesting because all of my Kirkland batteries die before I can even use them, however the Duracells last for years and still work when I go to use them. I've stopped buying the Kirkland brand of batteries because of that problem.

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

Great video Kim. I did get some good ideas. I'm gonna check out that powdered butter for sure. Ty.

[@kathleenoneil579]

Thanks for the pantry video, I find them highly motivating. This one got me up and go plant some more tomatoes, squash and peppers. I also plan on stocking up on tuna this week, sale and a coupon, I am trying to get more stocked protein. My gas stove get installed this week so I can get back to canning, starting with strawberry jam. I have a single jar of peach jam left.

I'm in Southern California and our boneless skinless chicken breasts at one of the local stores is $4.99 a pound. It's ridiculous. Aldi is still having deals now and then on it. But you can only get 2 packages. I have teens and they eat like crazy so 1 package goes quick.

[@laurielyon1892]

I totally agree with what you said about buying chicken. I saw my Kroger has them for .99 per pound this week. I’m definitely going to make room for 2 or 3. I love cooking them and then canning the meat up when I find a good sale like this. Then it’s shelf stable and I have room in my freezer for other good deals lol-even those are getting harder to get.

[@treasurespastnpresen]

If you take your fresh potatoes, onions, garlic, etc. out of the plastic bags into a wicker/cane basket, etc. they will last much longer.
