I hope this comment reaches you, as I wanted to share my heartfelt experience with you. Today, after completing my grocery shopping, I found myself overwhelmed with emotions and tears. It’s become increasingly difficult to provide enough food for my family, and I was feeling helpless. In search of a solution, I turned to KZbin and typed in “grocery shopping on a budget” to my surprise, and immense gratitude, your channel was the very first recommendation that popped up. I truly believe it was a blessing in disguise. Since discovering your channel, I’ve been saving every single video I watch. Your budget-friendly, recipes, and meal planning tips are invaluable to me. They give me hope and a sense of empowerment, knowing that I can still provide nourishing meals for my loved ones despite the financial challenges. I want you to know that I’ve subscribed to your channel, and I eagerly await each new content release. Your videos and guidance have brought a ray of light into my life, and I can’t thank you enough for that. Wishing you a wonderful day and please keep up the amazing work you’re doing. With gratitude, Zory Calcaben.

Mindy i appreciate these videos so much! I love to cook but unfortunately i sit just above the poverty line for my area so often i cant afford things like meats or fresh veggie, and rely a lot on whats considered "college eating", i.e. shelf stable pasta and rice and things that can be easily microwaved, along with staple seasonings. As im only a household of one person these videos are a huge blessing, as i can make a 5-person meal plan last me several weeks with proper freezing and portioning, and it gives ideas for how to get meat and veg/fruit into my diet when theyre normally out of my budget. Just wanted to say thanks for making videos like this one, theyre incredibly helpful!

I hope that you're able to reach out to local churches or foodbanks to help. Maybe apply for EBT if you qualify. I've found that canned chicken/tuna can be great ways to eat meat for cheap. Frozen veggies are a wonderful option as well. They are usually around $1-$1.50 per bag. Beans and legumes are also wonderful and cheap alternatives for protein.

I too, have a fixed budget, and while I would LOVE to have a whole roast, there is the canned roast beef at walmart. I get two cans for the week for this recipe of roast beef with Carrots (small can is about 88 cents) and get a couple individual potatoes, which come to about $4 total for a meal, which feeds my family of 4. I do get some mash potato packets which are just a dollar or so and it makes a filling meal for us. This is something of an option if you want to have this in your meal plan.

I once knew a man who had been homeless at one time. He never cooked with a recipe once he had a place to live. He just created one with whatever ingredients were available. It takes some experience to do that, but it's a valuable skill. Especially when money is tight and transportation to a store isn't easy. It made me realize how much I take for granted and how uncreative my cooking was.

Your videos have been such a huge help and blessing to me ! I was never really taught how to cook based off of being mindful of my budget. Your videos have helped me save almost $100 a week on groceries for my household! ( that’s WITH inflation) I also appreciate how you lift people up and don’t make people feel bad if they’re in a tight spot. In one of your recent videos, you said everyone deserves a treat and I thought that was lovely. Thank you for all your love, time, and effort, Mindy!

I have eaten them for years and I know they’re always a hit. But people hate them like it was some sort of drug they never had them before. They are just so yummy. They asked for the recipe I gave them the recipe and then two of them said that they didn’t get them to turn out that they tasted bad , it is one of my all-time favorite. You got a bring a treat to a party or get together and you can make a whole bunch of that for like less than three dollars win

I know you generally focus on Aldi's Wal-Mart, etc., but I was wondering if you've ever thought about talking about bulk money saving. The specific thing that jumped out at me was yeast. I make bread between 2-4 times a week and I buy yeast by the pound at a local grocery. I know 79 cents doesn't sound like much, but if you bake often enough to go through a pound of yeast in a year (which is roughly how long it should last once opened) then most pricing I've done puts it at half the price of yeast at Aldi's and closer to a third or a quarter of the price of yeast at other groceries. If you start keeping several commonly used items like that in bulk the savings can add up quickly. Amazon is very much your friend when doing budget cooking for a family.

Ok that is the best way I have ever heard it put! If flour is what takes you out.. I agree, it’s definitely your time because this world has SO much more to work with than raw flour lol

We use only fat free milk. With the butter and cream cheese, you probably won't mind it in a bechemel. However, I do keep powdered buttermilk solids and powdered plain coffee creamer on hand. If your sauce seems like it needs a fat flavor boost, add a tablespoon or so of either of those or both of those. You'll never miss the full fat milk.

I hear you on the eggs. I've found them around $2.50 a dozen in the last week and I've also been breathing a sigh of relief. I just told my husband that I can't believe I'm thrilled with that price, but it's making me see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel. I'm a little concerned we're going to see falling egg prices leading up to Easter and then the prices shooting back up after the holiday.

You can drain the whey out of the regular yogurt overnight, and it should thicken up.
