Tuna Fritters - Cheap Meal for Hard Times - Eat for $1 per Person - The Hillbilly Kitchen
Tuna Fritters can be served in a verity of ways to create a complete meal for less than a dollar per person. Tuna Fritters can be used as a patty on an bun, main course with pasta, rice or potatoes with veggie sides or an inexpensive finger food for get together. They got us by when we were kids and they will get us through now. They are easy fast simple comfort food that satisfies empty bellies and picky pallets. It’s time to revisit Granny’s kitchen for some of her super cheap meals.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

My mom did this with Salmon, I believe the can was closer to the size we needed for the family of 6. She used crushed saltines for the filler. For reference my mom was brought up on a farm in York County PA, she was born in 1915, was 14 when the depression started in 1929, married 7 years later in 1936. He was deferred from the draft in 1941 but was locked in a critical job with frozen pay, we were nearly destitute by 1945, inflation was rampant. I learned a lot from her and my dad on economizing. BTW, God is good. We were able to buy 5 acres in 1947, build a home, establish a truck farm and by 1950 things were much better. Weeping will endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.

Gail, is there an Aldi's near you. They have fresh produce and dairy and canned goods at reasonable prices. My wife and I are both in out 70's and Aldi's is a godsend. They will deliver to your door.. We start our mornings with honey yogurt and berries that they have all year round. Strawberries, Blackberries, blueberries and often raspberries as well. Good eating for you especially if you are on a special diet. In the winter we substitute plain oatmeal for the yogurt with our berries. No sugar needed, the berries provide the taste. With a cup of coffee and a piece of buttered toast our breakfast is complete.

My mother used to make Salmon patties with canned salmon when I was younger. Funny thing is, just before she passed I had asked her for the recipe because I love them. We got to talking and she mentioned the only time she made them was when we were having hard times.... I always thought we only had them when we had extra money lol! My oldest child asked me when I made them for the first time where I got the extra money. I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes.

The best advice I can give the young ones is never throw any food away. You can always add leftovers and any odds and ends to a potluck stew or a curry. We didn't have a fridge when I was a child in the 1950s so my mother, aunts and grandmothers built their next days meal around anything left over. Very often there wasn't anything left over, but if there was, it was used. Never throw away any kind of fat rendered from meat. If it isn't used in the meal you are preparing, keep it to fry your onions for the next meal. Never throw away gravy, add curry to it to make a rich sauce. If you have anything about to go bad, cook it immediately and freeze the cooked items. If you do that with veggies and they are mushy after defrosting, then use them as thickening for your bean soups. When you peel fresh veg, put the peelings in a saucepan and keep a stock pot on the go all the time. Add bones to it as and when you get them. If you keep chickens, keep the stock peelings at the bottom when they are mushy, add bran and feed to your chickens, they will love it. If you live in an area where you can keep a rabbit hutch in the garden, then raise rabbits. You will never go short of meat! Never throw away old clothes. Either use them for cleaning cloths or save the better pieces to make patchwork cushion or comforters. Or use them to cut into strips to make rugs. KZbin is a blessing full of craftspeople who can show you how to use most anything to avoid waste and thereby avoid wasting money.

That is all very good advice. How do you feed rabbits when there is no more commercial rabbit food available?
@snowysnowyriver
@snowysnowyriver 2 жыл бұрын
@@pegsol3834 Rabbits don't need commercial food if you have enough greenery and vegetables to feed them. 80% of a rabbit's diet is grass (and hay if they can get it). There is no difference between the dietary needs of wild rabbits and domesticated rabbits. The habit of feeding pet rabbits with commercial feed grew out of two things....laziness of the owners or a lack of greenery. If you grow veg or use a lot of veg you will not be short of rabbit food. Contrary to the popular view, carrots are not a normal food for rabbits. They rarely eat any root vegetables by choice, and should not be fed it routinely in captivity. Likewise with fruit. Rabbits eat flowers for sweetness, and they are not fussy. They will take your prize roses as well as the dandelions in your lawn! They are also very partial to fresh bark, pine needles, twigs and fibrous stems. In areas with a high population of wild rabbits, they can destroy plantations of young trees within days by stripping the lower trunks of bark. My grandparents kept rabbits for food all their lives, and so I used to feed them when I was a child. They were never given bought commercial food.

@@pegsol3834 Flowers, leafy plants, and grass make up the vast majority of what wild rabbits eat on a daily basis and that is what you are aiming to replicate. Captive rabbits are lucky because they get fruit and surface-growing veg scraps without having to forage. I found this list online which may help. We had very well-grown garden and veg plots when we had them so there was always something for them to eat. You may need to plant some different plants in spare corners of your garden, but you will get the benefit of the meat as well as the beauty of the plants! Grasses: wheatgrass, meadow grass, fescue, bluegrass, ryegrass, Bermuda, orchard, timothy, etc. Typical lawn grass is edible for wild rabbits but is less nutritious than wild grasslands. Weeds: dandelion, clover, crabgrass, ragweed, nettle, chickweed, etc. Bark and twigs: Willow bark and twigs, apple tree sticks, raspberry and blackberry bush twigs, birch, poplar, rose bushes and twigs, maple, cottonwood, etc. Flowers: Roses, daisies, sunflowers, marigold, lavender, chamomile, violets, pansies, etc. Herbs: Cilantro, parsley, basil, mints, oregano, sage, thyme, rosemary, dill, etc

I still make these all the time. I think if we practice as if it is hard times we adjust and adapt easier when hard times do hit. Broth toast and milk toast are inexpensive, add a poached egg for protein. Fried rice goes a long way too. I'm 60 and my parents added eggs to many dishes to stretch them. My grandchildren's favorite is sauted veg, add a prepared package of ramen and cover with beaten eggs( I use 1 per person, up to 4/pack of noodles) reduce the heat, cover and cook until your eggs are set. Uses up left overs easily! I'm so glad to see someone doing this and giving good advice rather than fear mongering. Bless you.

So glad you're sharing this with the younger generation. I've definitely had times when I had to stretch that food! Back in a big recession in the early 70's, I was a bride. I would cook a roast beef on Sunday then make vegetable soup with the leftover for the next night and the next night...I could get 3 different meals out of one roasted chicken. Tuna was for our lunches, more bread than fish, but we made it. We ate so much bologna that I still will not eat it 50 years later. The recipe you just shared I used for a can of salmon. I would also make a salmon loaf that stretched for another night. Spaghetti is always a cheap meal and can be meatless when zucchini and fresh tomatoes are ready in the garden.

I'm eating it right now because it sounded great, not because I'm poor. If you want another good "poor" food, check out mackerel soup. I add potatoes, baby corn and some ghost pepper sauce (just a tiny bit) to it, and it's awesome. Guests have been really impressed too. Like this, the core ingredient is a cheap can of fish. I spend more on vegetables for that, but it makes a huge pot that lasts me most of a week.

Hi! I like this recipe because in my country, we have a similar recipe: Cod fritters! Delicious! We add annatto oil, for color, and for added flavor we use "sofrito" (a mixture of minced garlic, onions, red peppers, cilantro), plus reconstituted dried cod fish bits. Mix, fry and enjoy!

@@andrearheintgen8523 The ingredients can easily be altered according to individual health needs and even taste preferences, but this is a very healthy recipe for the average person. Much of what she uses or gave as suggestive options to use for flavor are simply that, options. She is very good at suggesting alternative ingredients for healthier versions whenever possible, just as she did in this video, but she leaves the choices up to the individual to make them. It is not necessary to eliminate EVERY source of fat from the diets of all people, because we do still need them, and the occasional "bad" fat added for flavor when used in an otherwise healthy diet is of no consequence for most.

You asked us to share our recipes to stretch out money. My grandma made this when I was growing up (I'm 50 now) and I've made it quite often for my family because it's economical and nostalgic. You can make it to fit your family size for the night or more for leftovers that can be eaten on for days or frozen for later. Cabbage soup: 1 head of cabbage 1 lb of ground beef or ground turkey 1 big can of whole or diced tomatoes salt & pepper to taste The vegetables are suggestions, if you don't like or have some of them then don't add them: onion, celery, carrots, corn, green beans, fresh garlic, potatoes, squash, zucchini, peas (whatever is on sale) -cook your meat if you're using it, chop your cabbage and vegetables, add it all to a pot along with your can of tomatoes, then add enough water to cover everything. Cook until your vegetables are tender. My grandma and I would also make fried cornbread to eat along with it all.

I'm pretty good at making things stretch and food lasting. I also know cooking like the back of my hand so it's easy for me to make something out of not that many ingredients! I also love your inspirational advice and how you put God into your cooking channel.

I've had some struggles along the way and at that time I was in my twenties and now I'm in my upper 60s. I will be 67 this November.

Start a vegetable garden. Kale comes in many varieties and grows year round. It's a supper food. Save and dry seeds from your plants for the next season. Tip...if it fruits above the ground, plant as the moon begins to grow into a full moon. If it grows underground like carrots, beets, etc plant as the full moon wanes. Get a Farmer's Almanac and learn how to survive. 💞

I like to freeze the leftover liquid from pot roast or pots of beans, in quart zipper bags, and when I have two or three, use them for vegetable soup. It's quick, delicious and healthy. I also use canned chicken, and save that liquid in the freezer, and use that in my soup, dried beans, or to cook pasta. Basically I try not to throw anything away, and freeze leftovers before we get tired of them and they're a different dish next time.

When meat get scarce I chicken breast would make a good soup as well as any other meat. Small amounts of ground beef will make s good meal with some veggies. I made a soup when my kids were little (we didnt have a lot of money) with 1 lb ground beef onion celery carrots shredded and cabbage with a can of crushed tomatoes. Sometime I would add potatoes. I'd put a beef bullion cube in for added flavor.

When I was a kid my mother would add a can of tuna to a box of Kraft Mac n Cheese (at the end) just after she stirred in the cheese powder with the butter and milk. It was far more filling. That, and a vegetable and I was a happy camper. It definitely cost next to nothing to make. I also prepared it for myself from time to time in a pinch when I was a little hungry.

I’ve made these for years as a quick meal especially when I have unexpected company. It’s not uncommon for us to have a bowl of pinto or white beans cooked and I love having these with pinto beans, fried apples and stewed potatoes. The way I make my patties is a little different …. I beat an egg with a little Mayo add a little black pepper and just a tsp of honey (helps fishy taste) . Then I add tuna or the little packs of salmon you can get for $1. Then I add a couple slices torn bread and a handful of stovetop or generic stuffing mix. All the spices in the stovetop work wonderful. Adding the mayo stretches the the liquid part, helps to bind, and allows you to add more bread crumbs and stovetop. I make a great sauce by adding a little fresh horseradish to my homemade tartar sauce. When I was young I could make it cheaper than you could buy … just a little salad dressing or Mayo with pickle relish and a little minced onion. Cheap but good…. Good country food Fills you up and gives you energy to work hard God bless y’all

I make a tuna cake: 1 can of tuna, undrained, 1 tub crushed saltines, 1 egg and seasoning of choice. Super cheap and easy. My 10 kids love them with Mac and cheese

Thanks for the recipe. We've all been thru some hard times. I remember having to do with buttered spagetti in the mid 60s!! It was good, still like it, add garlic powder too. When you're hungry!!! So goes the saying. Thanks for all your wonderful videos. God bless. Glad you're still here making videos . I'm 78 and have never seen anything like we are experiencing today. I ask God every nite to make me a blessing to someone!🙏🙏💕

I very much appreciate all of the variations you suggest with your recipes. In this recipe, I especially like your idea to use pickle juice if we don’t have lemon juice on hand, and I have never thought to use cornbread mix instead of bread crumbs in a recipe. Thanks for helping us think of creative options to use!

If you call something a fritter it really elevates it to comfort food status and out of the kind of sad budget meal category, I think. Those turned out looking so good. I've meant to try tuna fritters/patties for awhile and now is as good a time as any. Thank you for sharing, Becky.

I do a similar recipe, however in place of the crackers/breadcrumbs I use crushed pork rinds. The cost difference is the same as pack of pork rinds is a low cost ingredient and if you're watching carbs it's a great alternative.

@@kennaevans1187 My mom used to make the salmon croquettes with salmon, eggs, a bit of lemon juice (1 tsp), crushed saltines, pepper. Make patties and fry in butter. I have come to dislike salmon so I've done the same with tuna for years. Mom used to substitute mackerel for salmon..less expensive and always tasted the same to me.
