I've always been a wallflower on yotube and just enjoyed watching content, I've never commented before, but i just want to say ive really enjoyed watching your budget food videos! Vet creative and inspiring 😊

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Oh thank you! That has made my day :)

[@sue15cat]

You're doing really well. I found your channel just yesterday and am binge watching my way through. 😊 For me, I have found recently that a five day meal plan works better. There are always leftovers for the last two days.

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Fab, welcome aboard! I like the sound of that x

[@margaritabetancourt1167]

Great videos makes me want to not waste so much food and money! Your food really looks good 👍 👍👍

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Thank you 😋

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

You can totally do it!

[@olearymiriam]

You could use the veg to make a stir fry. Also you could make a really easy red lentil curry and use up veg. You could stew the apples and you can add it to yoghurt or your porridge or make an apple cake. You can have the sausages with Sauerkraut. Or make them into meatballs. You could also make your own granola or flapjacks.

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Love it x

[@mandyfortune7992]

[@coraltaylor8159]

I would definitely eat your meals! I love concocting stuff from leftovers. Most things taste so much better the next day. Porridge is good for breakfast. I alternate with overnight oats 😊

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Absolutely! Thank you for watching coral x

[@marylowe3487]

I'm learning such a lot from your videos, thank you. I'm hoping to be a bit braver/imaginative, like you. Love seeing Jack!

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

You can do it! Xx

[@lin90210]

Not to deter you. I tried being vegan and being a woman I feel tired and lack iron so I struggled to get my iron intake (my fault for not picking iron rich veggies I know hehe). The other thing was I have or it made me have IBS. Too much fibre so I had to introduce meat back. I don't eat as much meat these days but still keep it in there sprinkled in hahaha

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Yes good points xx

[@Tess-FrugalLiving]

[@janw1746]

To keep carrots fresh in the fridge put into an airtight jar with a piece of kitchen roll..as long as the lid fits the 🥕 will last around two weeks..👍x

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Great tip! X

[@ErdbeereRot]

Or peel them and put them in a jar full of water in the fridge. It keeps them fresh up to 2 weeks.

[@user-pf3ez5vf6z]

There are those who prefer bit of charcosl on our food. Good video. Xx

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

So true! Haha x

[@katielee9354]

Great video's.working my way through them. The hm pickles you made are called ' bread & butter pickles' We make them often. The left over vinegar from the jar when eaten all the pickles we use in potato or chicken salads, hm coleslaw, hm mayo or added to dips etc ,as it has lots of flavor from the pickled veg..

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Ooooh never knew this xx

[@katielee9354]

@@BudgetFoodieUK l made a jar yesterday for nk weekend salad. You can use what ever you have that needs using up . l used a a few radishes, l/4 of cuc, l carrot, l small sweet onion. few runner beans, l celery stick, all sliced thin. Can also use raw cauli., shredded white cabbage. ACV best rather than malt vinegar. Pickles great for hotdogs too. Ready nk day/or in a weeks times.Keep in fridge as only last about a month..

[@itcanbedonedollars3693]

Yummo :) I love desert based bread. I have been loving full protien bread with almond butter, nannas & honey *chefs kiss* The sausage casserol looked divine. I hadn't thought about freezing peppers like that & using them in a casserole. Love it. I usually get a bunch of peppers in my discounted produce box.

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Sounds great!

Welcome!! Yay thank you x

[@SharonGreen-gc3ym]

I’ve got a boxer dog called Bruno 🐶

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Aww hello to little bruno x

[@christinenightingale2528]

Yes! Be vegan! My family and I have been vegan since 2017. Best thing ever. You can't love animals as much as we do and want to eat them ❤

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

I know I feel that xx

[@AnnieG785]

All you need to do is watch a few films about what really happens to animals and you’ll definitely be a life long vegan and a lot healthier. Just remember to take B12 . Lots of starches rice potatoes beans lentils tofu nuts plenty of fruit and veggies and you’ll be fine and never have to feel hungry . Use lots of herbs and spices so easy and so much cheaper !!

[@tinagillhamevans667]

Nine times out of ten my answer is NO

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Haha fair x

[@Astrid-no9hl]

Hey! First: I Really like your overall style, how you make your videos, talk etc. And Jack, like him also. And second: there is absolutely nothing wrong about eating oat porridge every morning. I’ve kept that going and going. Sometimes, on weekends I eat banana-oat pancakes or home baked gluten free bread. Thats it.

[@hayleykelly1754]

Vegan margarine is no worse than any other margarine and butter is no good either!

[@BudgetFoodieUK]

Oh no! Is butter bad? Xx
