Dollar Tree Super Bowl Appetizers
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- Hey friends! Today I'm showing you some ideas for appetizers for the Super Bowl, or any gathering really, using only ingredients from the Dollar Tree. I had so many ideas, but narrowed it down to only a few, and tried to avoid doing the usual "tried and true" easy recipes like deviled eggs or crockpot meatballs.
The dishes I did make are: nachos, bean and cheese taquitos, fried pickles, fried mac & cheese bites, and sausage pizza balls.
The Dollar Tree isn't always the best value compared to places like Walmart or Aldi, but these videos are more about accessibility, food access, and getting creative with a limited grocery selection.

I have been a subscriber for a few months and have been saving so much in groceries. Watching this channel changed the way and where I buy food. I have been able to donate a can of something everytime I go to the grocery store to go the local food bank.
That is so awesome!
Thank you for being such a wonderful beacon of light to us down-to-earth normal people who don't live in mini mansions!
One of my favorite things about this channel is how clever and thrifty the viewers are. I will be using what ever pickle juice I don't drink as a marinade for chicken. Thanks again to all
My grandma is from Mexico and if she cooks anything that requires rolling a corn tortilla, she fries the tortilla in a little oil for a few seconds. Just a few seconds, though. Like less than 10. It helps soften the tortilla and makes it more pliable and less prone to cracking and splitting.
They won’t crack if she warms them up on both sides on comal or pan before filling them, that is how I’ve always made my flautas and they never crack.
I enjoy your channel. Especially dollar tree related. When my husband and I were young we had a 25 dollar a week budget and mostly shopped at the dollar tree. It brings me back to the good old days with your videos. Thank for sharing
Yay! So glad to see you back!!🥰
Glad to be back! 💙
Dang, that made a ton of food! I need to get into the habit of cooking from scratch instead of always opening a can/box. Thx, Lisa!😀
Yes, my dollar tree just went to the 1.25 this month also. Love your ideas. this gives the people that only have a dollar tree a great idea on food stuff to make ..( A lady I used to work with only shops dollar tree because she says it is perfect for her because it's only her. Everything looked great!!! As always thanks for the share.
You know, I never thought about that, but portion size is a big issue...when you live by yourself & dont have lots of space to store tons of leftovers (or dont care for them after a awhile), it is better when you can buy smaller portions & use it all up while it is fresh.
Thank you so much for this video.....if I shopped at whole foods I'd blow my whole food budget.... just can't afford it so thank you for the videos sis 🙏🏽
Pickle Juice is good to help with leg/foot cramps. mmmm good. LOVE your smart use of Dollar Tree greatness and coming up with fun ideas!!!
Great for post Superbowl hangovers too lol! Electrolytes 😍
Omgg yess. I never throw it away and save it for my leg cramps I get
Never knew that. I take quinine tablets for cramps. I'll try the pickle juice. One less med sounds good to me.
Oh my I didn’t know pickle juice help with leg cramps
Thank you
Love how everything is "no shame" with you.
I made your recipe for the fried pickles. Now, I don't eat regular pickles, these, I did. Dipped them in ranch dressing, uuuummmm good. New appetizer here. Thanks for this.
Yes, pickle juice drinker here. Since like 4 years old. Garlic sours are the best pickles. The nachos looked yum!
My favorite is spicy pickle juice when there's a chili pepper in with the pickles! 😁
Wow!. Everything looks so delish. Had no idea dollar tree had all the Ingredients for all that. Thank you.
I've seen recipes for fried mac &cheese and usually they say to refrigerate the mac & cheese before forming into balls.
I also love to drink pickle juice.
I love how you are always able to put everything together.
I always love how creative you are with simple ingredients. It's amazing to watch you work 😊
Thank you for showing us how to open a jar with the knife! I've never seen that trick before, I'll definitely be using that. Your recipes look amazing as always. Thank you for showing us all of these options with limited resources or access. And YES I'm a pickle juice drinker too!
When I saw her do that I was like, of course she has all the tricks up her sleeve!
Team pickle juice 😋
I’m going to apologize in advance if this comment is down below I had a wild day at work and I’m exhausted but I want to post a hint for pickle juice. I would not be above drinking it, either it makes awesome pickled eggs. Peel hard boiled egg or three and put them in the jar of the pickle juice and let them sit for a little bit and presto! I also have been known to add it to tuna salad or egg salad for some extra zip.
Your appetizer spread looked great. I’m Canadian so we don’t get the cool commercials for the Super Bowl we get the CRTC retread simulcast feed commercials. Translation I’ll be watching Netflix while the rest of you were watching the Super Bowl. And I’ll try to find the commercials online. But for those of you that will be watching I hope you have a great party and enjoy the game!
Good to see you! I’ve been missing your videos!
So glad to see you! Such an adorable person with great ideas.
Yay so glad to see you doing another video!🥰
Everything looks awesome, including the mac and cheese! Stop fussing at yourself - LOL! Love your ideas - so creative!
I’ll be drinking that pickle juice straight outta the jar on Monday from being SO hungover 😂😂 My favorite part of the Super Bowl this year will MOST DEFINITELY be that 1/2 time show 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
Girl, I keep looking for you. I love your message. I needed this when I was young with two children, no money, no car and no idea how to cook. Also, no dollar tree or dollar general. Thank you sweetheart
Hey Lisa glad to see you back! Learned to "wack" the lids a long time ago from my mom! Thanks for sharing your amazing thrifty recipes with us they all look delicious. Yes pickle juice drinker here too! ☺
I was taught to spank the bottom of the jar a few times.
It works, too.
Pickle juice makes an amazing marinade for chicken if you haven't tried it. It brines the meat and tenderizes it to perfection.
Really!? Do you add anything else with it?
@@ashleylynn4538 I don't think you need to. You can thin the pickle juice out with some water it isn't enough to submerge the quantity of meat you want to marinate. But you can add spices or oil or anything else you want. I'm pretty sure Chick-fil-A uses pickle juice in their marinade so if you like their chicken you should give it a try!
@@squisitissima2810 I definitely will! Love that idea
That's what chic fil a does to brine their chicken
So happy that you are back!!! I have a suggestion. Try forming the mac and cheese bites and then freeze them for a while. Then fry them. I can't wait to try the pickles..
Wow! Lisa Dawn, you have done it again. What a beautiful spread. Just FYI, you can marinate chicken in your leftover pickle juice. I'm not sure if anyone said that already. Happy Superbowl!
You beat me to it, I love pickle juice as a marinade.
Love using pickle juice or chopped dill pickles in meatloaf. Tastes wonderful!
Hi Lisa! I'm a huge fan of your channel because at one time I was only able to buy groceries from the Dollar Tree. Now I have noticed that some of the items that went up at the Dollar Tree, are still only a dollar at Walmart 😑. I hope that info helps.
I have 3 or 4 RUclipsrs that I just can't wait for new videos from. You are one of them! Thank you, I loved this video and these great ideas!
Thank you, I'm so glad you are enjoying the videos!
I get so angry when the reduce package sizes to disguise price increases. Cadbury Australia did the same thing with the chocolate bars. Very annoying! Lovely to have a new video from you. I really appreciate your uploads!
Thank you for the video. Have an amazing weekend!
I was so excited to see you made a video! You are so creative. I have done a variation of the sausage balls and I use the rotel for our nachos too. The other recipes look so good and easy. Thanks so much for sharing! I’m not a sports watcher. I love the food And read my book. Our dollar tree has a lot of items at 1.25 too. I’m not mad about it. I’m actually surprised they didn’t do it sooner. Anyways, thanks again. Have a great weekend!
Glad to see a new video!!! Just found and watched all your videos about a month ago, love your content!!!
So glad you are enjoying it 💙💙💙
We usually have a large family gathering for Superbowl Sunday. Lots of food, snacks, drinks, etc. But my son is getting over a stomach bug so no guests this year. We still plan on making a lot of food bc we'll nibble on leftovers throughout the week... lol. Not rooting for any particular team. Just looking forward to all the food & funny commercials. Thank you for the amazing recipe ideas.
I like when you all share the first bite!
I use those hamburger patties in spaghetti. I use my meat masher and it makes really good meat sauce. I have also used them to do a shepherds pie. Yummy! They’re not the best hamburger, but if you mash them up they are good.
Great video!! These recipes will be good for fam get togethers at my apartment. Btw, I love pickle juice!! lol 🥒
You are killing it with the crunch factor !
Love these recipes! Everything looked delicious!We are definitely pickle and pickle juice kindred spirits!!! Maybe it's because we're both from Jersey!
Thanks for the new video! I'm glad you tried that can of cheese sauce. I bought it months ago but sorta scared to try it! I love all your great ideas, that's the challenge for me is coming up with something from all the weirdness that is my pantry.
I am so happy to see you back! And, as usual with great ideas and recipes. If you add these to the other dishes you mentioned in the beginning you have a great Superbowl spread. Thanks and have a great weekend.
I LOVE this channel. You are so adaptable and creative.
Glad I saw another one of your videos!! Real food, creative and budget friendly. This is giving me ideas when I say to host company or going to a pot luck gathering.
I have to make all of this. As soon as we move it's on lol. Right now we are at a hotel until the house is done. We will rent while we fix up my mother in laws house. Been an adventure. I can't wait to have a kitchen again. Thank you so much. Your videos help more than you know!
Yes, a Lisa Dawn video - it's gonna be a good day!
I used to put pickle juice in Bloody Marys when I was a drinker, now I save the juice and marinate chicken breasts in it for home made Chick-fil-A sangwiches. And I always make a full bag of pinto beans because I need to allow for all the spoonfulls I know I'm going to sneak while I'm cooking.
A good thing to do with the the mac-n-cheese is to press it into a pan then stick it in the freezer for a bit and slice them into cubes. I LOVE fried mac-n-cheese.
Finally, this video supports my belief that cheese makes everything better! And, yeah ---- Super Bowl is mostly about the food for me.
A much tastier approach to the nachos would be heating the cheese, sausage and Rotel in a pot. Similar to how my mom makes her delicious queso except she uses a block of the velveta and we cook it in the crock pot for parties. But overall this is a great video that’s gives so many tasty ideas.
Yay always get excited to watch your videos xx
💙💙💙
Great video, I certainly will be heading to my local Dollar Tree. Thanks for the tips to. Your awesome.
Love watching your ingenious thrifty cooking. I admire your good heart. You are so sweet! Keep up the great work! ❤️
Thank you! As always you knock it out of the park!
Thank you! 💙
I was at the parade that day in Philly too. Near the Art Museum. It was such a great memory.
Hey thanks for another video!
Love your videos!
Tip for the Mac & cheese fried balls!
Cool your Mac & cheese yes , go ahead and flour , egg and panko them! Put them on a platter and let them cool in the fridge for a hour before you fry them! They will come out great! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You can use pickle juice and add fresh cucumbers. Or cauliflower or carrots cut up to pickle. Let sit overnight.
I've done cucumbers but never cauliflower or carrots. I'll definitely have to try that, thanks for the suggestion!
I was very excited to see your new post! I'd love to see you do something for Easter. My favorite thing at Easter was my grandma's deviled eggs.
Never watch the Super Bowl but I love this video
I am on a fixed income so your recipes really helpful ☺️
Glad to see you back. Great, creative recipes as always! Love your channel
Go Birds! The fried pickles looked yummy. A Russian dressing dipping sauce would be amazing.
Man I just love watching your videos so much! I find u so delightful
Thank you. I love your videos. You're a wonderful, kind person. 💕
I love pickle juice as well. I also like to make koolaid pickles. Love these recipes. They all look fabulous girl! 😉❤
Love your channel and your laid back approach to cooking. Much love from So. California! GO RAMS! 🤘🏽
Yay! I missed your videos lisa!
💙💙💙
The next one will be out soon too! No crazy long wait this time.
@@ThatLisaDawn you rock and its definitely worth the wait. I loved the taquitos! That was a clever one!
This food with that halftime show...cause I did not forget about Dre! Love seeing the artists from my youth still out there getting it in! Lil of Snoops favorite and you have a might fine day!
I remember when you said you went up to Philly I’ve been subscribed to you for a long time and Im happy to be here ❤ awesome cooking I enjoy watching or listening to you.
Great spread! I too LOVE pickles & always drink the juice. Recently I saw someone make hot spicy chicken sandwiches by marinating the chicken in pickle juice, salt/sugar & hot sauce. Omg they looked wonderful so I gotta try that.
Happy to see you again! Thanks!
Lisa Dawn, another great video! Suggestion on opening jars... I used to whack them with a knife like that to open them as well, but found that the lids would start to rust in the fridge at the "ding" marks!! Didn't want that for the food inside I wanted to consume. Instead, an individual just needs to disrupt the pressure in the bottle (essentially what you are doing by whacking) by turning the jar upside down and giving the lid a direct thump on the countertop where the entire surface of it hits at the same time. No dings that cause rust, and it is immediately ready for twisting open. Hope you will try it! Keep these coming, and appreciate your messaging about food deserts out there
Love dill pickles and pickle juice. My favorite pickle juice to drink is from the Clausen Pickles.
Girl. Your hair was so cute at the end of the video. I think it was tucked in your sweatshirt but it looked like a really cute haircut. Loved it
I was beginning to think you quit the youtubes. Nice to see you back again.
Definitely no thoughts of quitting, I love putting out videos! The next one will be here soon too! 💙
Glad to see you back making videos! Nice appetizer spread! I love fried pickles, never made them at home
Pickle juice drinker here! Pickle juice stirred in potato salad is good too.
Thank you for posting this video! It gave me some great ideas for next time I need to make some appetizers.
I’m from the Cincinnati area so everyone is pretty excited the Bengals are finally in the Super Bowl for once! But I’m more excited about the food! Lol!
The skating rink I went to as a child used to freeze their leftover pickle juice. In ice cube trays with a toothpick. They sold them for .25 each! I thought that was so smart!
Oh wow, that's so fun! My local skating rink just sold candy and mediocre pizza.
Hey, Lisa
Yes...pickle juice drinker
..So much goodness in that jar 🙂
Love pickle juice! We watch movies! last time I watched superbowl was when the Dallas Cowboys were playing! long long time ago.
Oh wow I’m gonna have to try some of those idea!!!
Thanks so much!
Everything looks great and hubs and I will enjoy these!
Dang, this all looks so good!!! I'm gonna try those pizza sausage balls for sure...
You're my FAVORITE RUclipsr by a LANDSLIDE
glad to see a new video!
Your awesome your vibe and commentary is great your personality shines through 💜💜💜💜💜
I never thought to wack the lid, thanks!!
I love that seasoning 😻😻😻
There you are. I miss seeing you on live. Please make more.
Thank you! More definitely coming soon 💙
I've missed your videos! I really enjoy them!
Good to see you again...Drinking pickle is actually very good for you.. There are many links on google.. I would post one here but I don't think You tube allows it in the comments.. The nibbles look great ..
Its easier if you shape the mac and cheese and then put it in the freezer my daughter aunt use to make those for her
That’s a great spread and frugal!
Good to see you back on! 👍🏻👍🏻
You talking to me
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL! So glad to see you back 😊
I'm glad to be back! 💙
Here is the most amazing trip for pickle juice if you’re making burgers throw a little pickle juice in a pan and toast your buns with it it makes the most delicious burgers I also add some pickle juice to tuna salad… But I learned the bun trick from a famous burger expert here in Los Angeles!
I absolutely adore you and was so excited to see you post a new video. You are really creative with ingredients and you have made me really check myself when I grocery shop.
💖 Just wanted to say keep on doing your videos in your charming adorable manner. I look forward to your videos, they make me smile. (And everything looks yummy!)
Thank you so much, I'm glad you are enjoying them!! 💙
Yes those sausage pizza balls !!! Love them
The mac n cheese patties, a place by my house said to chill mac n cheese over night use ice cream scoop to get out in balls then do the deep they were amazing
I definitely do sip pickle juice now and then. Love love love your videos
Wow! The food all looked so yummy!! You're so creative with the things you make. You definitely gave me some ideas for superbowl!!
