MACARONI cooked and drained, add in canned or packet TUNA (drained very well), add in Mayo (texture to your liking) and mix the above mentioned together. Once mixed-up add in canned or frozen (thawed) GREEN PEAS... folding the Green Peas in gently so you don't crush them into the mixture. Season to taste. I add in Paprika, Salt and Black Pepper (sometimes fresh Onion. Good hot or cold. It's a great 👍 Summertime Dinner or Cover Dish choice, convenient and easy.
I went to Wall mart today purchase a lot of fresh vegetables in the produce section as well as a chicken checked out and it was simply $60. And a few cents. I will change my shopping habits and simply buy highly nutritious food and my cooked chicken and I can make it. Hallelujah I believe I can make it one week on this.

Bow tie pasta with cream cheese…throw frozen peas in it at the end (you can add diced chicken or smoked tofu). Rice, broccoli, and Oyster sauce with a protein choice. Smoked tofu with beans and tomatoes over mashed potatoes.
I take a 25¢ ramen noodle package n add some leftover chicken from the night before and a handful of frozen mixed veggies about 1/3 cup. Bring water or broth to boil, add veggies let cook for about 3 minutes add chicken and noodles and cook for another 3-4 minutes and you have a quick, cheap n healthier (then just ramen) chicken noodle soup for 2.

We need more Vanlifer cooking recipes. We are poor, but cooking should still be lifes comforts. My favorite no cook Vanlifer recipes get pita bread, cooked rotisserie chicken or steak in a bag from deli section, sald kit, saracchi sauce, and some cheese, it yummy no cook recipe for summer or Vanlife. The rotisserie chicken, steak or chicken in a bag ftom Safety or WinCo has big bags precooked and throw it in recipes, its a life saver for van living.
@@brendabrock7702 Oh my YES! Thank goodness for Rotisserie Chicken. I love shredding it and mixing it up with chopped Olives (Black or Green), fresh chooped Onions, and thin slices of Philly Cream Cheese served in a Pita bread. That a favorite! Also can skip the Pita Bread and use a Flour Tortilla Wrap. Deli Ham is delicious for this too.
Looks delicious Carol. I am having difficulty making meals for one because I have no refrigeration yet. Ice melts & I end up having to throw food out. Thank you for all you do 😘🙏❣️
It was really challenging for me too when I just had a cooler. My food was constantly getting soggy. Until you get a fridge one idea is using a lot of canned foods like tuna, chicken, roast beef and even canned hash or small low cost canned ham and other shelf safe foods like rice, beans and noodles or ramen. Veggies like potatoes also last pretty well. If you are camping with other folks you can take turns preparing meals and sharing so you use up what you cook.
You can also put broth(in place of water follow amt on box of rice) chicken rice into rice cooker mix very well initially. Push the button and you can mix it again when done.
Yum! One of my go-tos is rice with canned black beans and a can of tomatoes with chilies (like Rotel). I usually spice it up a bit with spices like Chili powder & cumin. If you have cheese, it's a great addition but is fine without.
The zatarain's red bean is good too. I used to go to Sam's club get a rotisserie chicken get home and take two gumbo packs very inexpensive I would cook it down and add the chicken and some sausage. There's a lot more to it than what I'm saying you want to take the chicken off the bone you want to cook it down in your pan pretty good with the sausage get it to Brown real good some onions celery.
I use that Kirkland canned chicken all the time to make chicken salad for sandwhich es or on top of a bed of lettuce. I’ve also used it with a can of white beans, chopped
Zatarans beans and rice, with either no meat or whatever meat you can afford to throw in. We like sliced up smoked sausage. Hot dogs would work, so would pretty much anything else. Don't forget the hot sauce! Been making that in my family for years and years, whether money was tight or not.
Hi glorious, I haven’t seen you in a long time. I missed you. I really want to live in a van and just travel. I missed hearing your voice ❤. I told a lot of friends about you. I’m so happy to be able to watch you. God bless you. 😎😁😋😋😋😋😋🙏❤️😅
That was how the idea for my channel came to he. I saw someone eating cold pork and beans out of a can at an RTR in Quartzsite years ago and I knew I could show how to ear better on the road.
It sounds yummy and I'm definitely going to try it. (Tony) Chachere is pronounced saa-SURE-ee. Lots of our Louisiana names are not phonetically decipherable in English.
Strange as it may seem. But i actually save money since my husband went on the carnivore diet. Yet he eats well on beef, pork and eggs, Anything that is animal. Plus he has lost weight. Plus he drink water and mineral water. Gave up soda, and other drinks. Gave up breads. In other words gave up carbs. I drink tea and I have always ate small portions. So now my food bill is a lot less. I buy meat by bulk from the meat market.
Omagosh Jessica is so cute! This is the first time I’ve seen her. 😆 Last time I went camping I forgot my Tony’s. I was so mad at myself. Now I keep it in my van. Looks yummy for a cold winter evening. 😆

I then did a pivot and expended. Due to continued requests to share some simple recipes again I am going to start airing some again.

@@gloriouslifeonwheels3621 i agree the other day i was making one of those rice packs in my microwave, took it out have way thru the cooking time to stir, and left the metal fork in the bowl, no need for fireworks here had a scary show going on in the microwave
Did you go to Costco? The chicken cones in 6 or 8 can package and is $2.31 per can. I got the rice at thr 99 cent store for 70 cents when they were going out of business. Thr total is $3.01 divided by 4= less than $1 a serving as stated in the video. You can substitute Zatarains rice at WalMart for $1.64 which would make still make it under $1 per serving.
Just got a good shower shave 💩 and I cut my hair before. I feel so good that longer thick hair is for the birds. I can get a burrito tb $1+ tax. I'm out of powder and I have to get some.
I said per serving. There are 4 servings or 4 MEALS. $ 2.31 plus 70 cents = $3.31 divided by 4 =82 cents per serving. Which according to my math is less than a dollar.
I do this meal while camping with a Box of Chicken Rice a Roni. Makes Two Dinners and one Lunch. A very affordable and easy meal on the road. I do not do the Onions, do not care for those.
Something tasty but how healthy is the meal. High salt in rice spice and canned chicken juice preservative, rice not nutritional and high carb on glycemic index( not good for diabetics). We need to eat healthy. Also, this isn't a $1 meal. We can't even get a can of beans for $1 anymore. And, who eats only one serving size as indicated on the package ? I don't like to be a downer but I wouldn't be healthy on this meal.
Yes, it is a $1 meal per serving. As I clearly explained, the chicken was $2.31 and the box of rice was 70 cents. In my math that adds up to $3.01. Given 4 servings that is less than $1 per serving. You just wrote about diabetes and being healthy. I would think if that is a concern you would limit yourself to one serving. Me and my daughter did. I don't know where you shop but I am able to put together $1 per serving meals all the time. It just takes some creativity. This meal could easily be done as I explained with chicken not from a can and veggies could be substituted for rice. Again, reguires some imagination.

I love this idea. I oftentimes make old fashioned canned Salmon Patties 😋 then refrigerate and make Sandwiches with or without Mayo added.
I love, love, love salman patties!!
My mother made those when I was young. Gloriouslifeonwheels, please cook salmon patties, I would love to see the recipe. I remember tuna patties too

You could put all that in a 12volt lunchbox, and by the time you get to your next campsite, you'll have a hot meal ready to eat!
I have one of those. That is a great idea 💡
Easy and only one pan to clean up. 👍
Yep. 😊
Tip: If seasoning is in a packet, hold one end and whack it on the counter before you open it. Whack with discretion. You don't want to tear it.
It is cheap, easy, and delicious. I feel like a king already!🤴

Good. And Cosco don’t you have to buy bulk to get this price?
It is 6 or 8 cans. But it is shelf stable and can last quite awhile. At those prices I don't mind buying extra cans.

Stay tuned. I am going to be doing more.
Is your cooking stove pretty efficient and cost effective (fuel wise)? Does it use butane or propane?
They are very efficient. Best outdoors to use an inexpensive wind block. I have a few including a Gas One and a Coleman. They used to be $19.99 at WalMart. I think they are $24 now. Mine are butane. But there are ones that use butane and propane and there are double burner one that use both fuels.

Hello 👋
The only thing I would add, for extra nutrition, is a vegetable.
I agree👍
I would have added the chicken right before the rice finished, the chicken is already cooked
That would work too. But I am old and forget. Best to do it at the beginning🤣
@@gloriouslifeonwheels3621 i agree the other day i was making one of those rice packs in my microwave, took it out have way thru the cooking time to stir, and left the metal fork in the bowl, no need for fireworks here had a scary show going on in the microwave
What stove are you using to cook this recipe? Thank you
A Plana Butane stove. But I have used Coleman and Gas One stoves also.
I wonder if curry powder would be good with that rice meal?
I am not a grrat fan of curry but I bet it would.
I have just done a quick supermarket search, same meal here is around $10NZD, about USD$6.09
Did you go to Costco? The chicken cones in 6 or 8 can package and is $2.31 per can. I got the rice at thr 99 cent store for 70 cents when they were going out of business. Thr total is $3.01 divided by 4= less than $1 a serving as stated in the video. You can substitute Zatarains rice at WalMart for $1.64 which would make still make it under $1 per serving.
@@gloriouslifeonwheels3621 no costco here
Our food prices are hideous
Sometimes the canned chicken can be factory manufactured .Some people dont mind eating that.
Costco probably sells millions of cans of it every year. So, a lot of people don't mind eating it.
Sorry I missed your live
Tune in next week. Meanwhile there is always the replay❤😊
Just got a good shower shave 💩 and I cut my hair before. I feel so good that longer thick hair is for the birds. I can get a burrito tb $1+ tax. I'm out of powder and I have to get some.

Which park are you filming from?
I'd have to go back and watch the video🤣 probably in Oceanside or Encinitas.
Skip the rice,pasta...use Vegetables and the chicken with seasonings..more healthy, no carbos..
Good idea.
How can u make that under a $1 ? Chicken is almost 2 and rice mix about 1.50
Per serving
It is $1.00 per serving size. Each item contains "X" numbers of servings.
Oh ok
I said per serving. There are 4 servings or 4 MEALS.
$ 2.31 plus 70 cents = $3.31
divided by 4 =82 cents per serving. Which according to my math is less than a dollar.
