made the ravioli lasagna this evening & absolutely loved it! used 1 1/2 containers of spaghetti sauce instead of 2 & topped with parmesan. Served with garlic cheese toast! It was wonderful!
Um, yes. She's saying it right. This is how we say it in Australia and how it's said throughout the world. You guys pronounce everything different then don't recognise a word when you hear it pronounced correctly.
Definitely adding some items from your meals to my list. I love that you don't spend hours in the kitchen preparing meals. I feel like I am a prisoner to my kitchen because of all the prep/cooking/cleaning I do! Thank you for sharing fast nutritional meals!
Hey Abby, just want u to know that you are such an inspiration . Juggling a full time job ,mom,and a channel . Thank you for showing me that if you put your mind to it you can be and do whatever you want . Much blessings ,favour I pray over you and your family .
One of my fav meals growing up was bbq meat over rice (we were poor so usually was hot dogs, occasionally we got steak). These are awesome simple but tasty meals! Thanks for sharing.
@@Isabella66Gracen I still can’t believe it. Walmart has been my go to for years and I’ll still go there at times but honestly, I’ve never found a grocery store as reasonable as Aldi...and quality is good too. Wish you had one too :(
I made the ravioli lasagna meal tonight, complete with the broccoli. My kids all but literally kicked their plates clean. Thank you for taking the time to share these recipes.
You’re MY FAVVVVVORITE cheap dinner, on a budget YT Momma. I feel like you’re so real, busy and running around like a chicken with ya head cut off like the rest of us Busy Mommas+Wife!! Happy New Year, From College Station TX!!!
Onions are supposed to be done before you dump everything else in, it makes it taste so much better! I’ve found that it saves me a lot of time to buy a bag of onions, chop them all and freeze. If i’m feeling super motivated I also brown them and those freeze amazingly as well! That’s my favorite cooking hack 👌
Thanks for the great ideas! These type of videos are my favorite of yours. Love easy meals and always looking for good ideas. Wish we lived closer and could be good friends. Blessings to you and your sweet family.
So many great recipes! Super glad to see you posting again. As a side note, while I’m not interested in creating a RUclips channel, if this course is set up anything like your budget one, I HIGHLY, recommend people run to wait list for this course, if they want to become creators. I learned so many things in the budget course and it taught me a whole new outlook on money and why I treat it the way I do. I’m sure this course will be just as great!
Janis, I’m not sure if she is still doing it or not but you might Google budget fix academy that is her course name. I’ve done a lot of budgeting courses and I learned so many new things from her course. She has you put in the work to figure out why you view money the way you do and implement it in how you do your budget. My life is different because of her course.
Some video ideas for the new year. Kitchen organization, instapot and air fryer recipes, and more Vlogs. Me and my husband just got married in September and I struggle with motivation to cook and clean every week.
Thank you for sharing this Aldi Video! 👍🏻 I enjoyed virtually shopping haul with you. I’m quarantined and miss getting to Aldi. I’m happy to see some new items. Now I know what I’m gonna look for when I get back out! I make some Aldi videos too. Mostly Recipes but I have a few hauls too. I appreciate your sharing! Keeping me entertained while I rest. Happy New Year!!
I wish we had an Aldi close 😭😭 I stop by one when I’m visiting back home, but I can’t get anything perishable of course. Ugh. Always love you’re videos. 🥰
It's like we're living the same life 😅 toddlers in the background while we're trying to cook meals and save money for our families and everything else that's done in between. It's alot. It's exhausting..... But yet still rewarding.
I enjoy your videos. 👌 FYI~ Artesian is relating to or denoting a well bored perpendicularly into water-bearing strata lying at an angle, so that natural pressure produces a constant supply of water with little or no pumping.The bread you purchased is Artisan. 🍞 I've noticed a few others mistaking the two words & I thought if no one tells them, they won't know. 🤔
Am I ever glad I happened along to your channel! I’m definitely interested in the RUclips lifestyle. I’m in BC, Canada so the only shopping experience even close to where you shop is Walmart. Your ideas are easy and yummy. 💐
Great video! Thanks so much for a week of budget friendly meals. There is not an Aldi near us so I will be buying the groceries from Walmart. I realize the cost will be more but still budget meals. Also I have made your crockpot ravioli recipe many times.
@@thesimplifiedsaver $69.38 at Walmart. I bought a package of fresh carrots instead of Brussels sprouts. Mostly great value brands except crackers because husband insists on premium brand. I live in Washington state. No tax on food except for canned drinks, etc. I did not buy these.
What mascara do you use? That's always what I wanted to know. You have the prettiest eyelashes. Wait you did a makeup video didn't you awhile back. Let me look!
Good to see you back sharing I commend you for family first RUclips after that Your priorities are good! Rest when you can and focus on family first! For broth to be vegetarian meal the soup should be vegt broth .. simple to sub
Love your channel, and excited for your RUclips course. My friends and family have been urging me to take the plunge, and I think your course will be so very helpful. Do you have a cost for it yet?
Hi Abbey, I've watched you for a few years now and so enjoy your tips and easy delivery style; you must be the best teacher ever! Your so special and I always look forward to not onlyyour content but your kind ways. I recently returned to your chanel after a hiatus and I noticed your breathing seems labored. Talking while cooking, filming and watching children must have it's challenges:) If this is not due to a cold or allergies, please take care, there are techniques to employ that enable healthier breathing patterns that afford deeper longer breaths. Just a concerned long time subscriber (no criticism intended). Happy New and all the best!
The United States In the United States, Aldi is pronounced ALL-dee. The first syllable rhymes with ball, tall, and fall. The second syllable rhymes with bee, knee, and he. The accent is on the first syllable, although it’s not a heavy emphasis.
Love your recipes, but your tortellini soup isn't vegetarian as you are using chicken stock - with a vegetable stock it would be and taste absolutely fabulous. Best wishes, Beth
I love your channel so much! Thanks for making all these budget friendly meals and for being soooo relatable! Please don’t lose that!
You are so welcome! Thanks Amy :)
I am not loving the higher food prices these days, so I definitely appreciate your inexpensive meal ideas!
Thanks Robin! I am here to help :)
made the ravioli lasagna this evening & absolutely loved it! used 1 1/2 containers of spaghetti sauce instead of 2 & topped with parmesan. Served with garlic cheese toast! It was wonderful!
That tortellini soup looks delicious - I think adding shredded rotisserie chicken would be good in it too
That would be a great addition!
Am I the only one it stresses out that she says Aldee? Lol
Love your videos!!
Al-dee or All-dee - dealer's choice, right? Haha

I’m heading to Aldi tomorrow. Thank you for giving me some great ideas!
You're so welcome!
Your daughter wiping her hands on her car seat after eating her chicken made me laugh 😂😂 Love your videos!!
Cream cheese… that’s brilliant! We aren’t big Mayo fans in our house. I can’t believe I haven’t thought about cream cheese!
Let me know if you like it!
Glad to see you back the meals looked delicious hope you and yours had a great holiday season.
We're back at it! Thanks for watching, Heather
Everything looks yummy! Love your channel! Happy 2022!

Ok I yawned right after you did lol.How many people watching did the same! Just discovered your channel so hello from South Jersey 😊
So glad to have you Arianne!
