People who have someone to cook meals for them every day are so blessed and 95% are so ungrateful and don't even think about it twice. If you have someone like this, shopping, planning, cooking, storing, and saving money - make them feel appreciated for it often - weekly. Brag on them and how they take care of you to whomever you can - you could be eating cereal and ramen every day. Lisa Dawn, Andrew, you guys are a blessing! 🥰
My grandma was the best cook, EVER, and she enjoyed feeding people. Everytime you go to her house, she wanted to feed you, and NOBODY declined grandma Jo's cooking ever! I miss her and her cooking soooo bad. My mom was just as good as grandma, but shes gone too. What i wouldnt give to go home, one more time and have a big Thanksgiving dinner cooked by my grandma or mom.
You should think about doing a cookbook. All of your recipes on a budget. With the cost of groceries it could help a lot of people put a tasty meal on the table at a low price point. I’m not a bean person, but you make everything look yummy.
ur recipes/tips have inspired my own determination to do better with less & my fam has benefited more times x than i can count. Most heartily agree an ebook-cookbook would be amazing & will keep my fingers crossed 🤞
You take the shame out of poverty, and I love your videos for that. I also appreciate that you do not romanticize poverty, or scare the living daylight out of us. Instead, you treat food insecurity as a challenge, a difficult task to be tackled. It gives folks back the courage and self-respect that is needed to make it through difficult times. Thanks.
Whoa...$60 for three adults. You know what? I just paid $30 for ten pounds of hamburger meat that was marked down to half price. I normally paid that much for full price two months ago. Plus my electric bill has tripled. I`m single on disability and honestly don`t know how I`m going to make it. Thank you for your thrifty recipes...it really helps.
Try your community dinners, pantries and food banks. Seriously, the income guidelines are way higher than I knew and although I was making it, my life is so much easier now. I still avoid sodium but I can work around most things.
Don’t you dare touch that fridge! One of the things I love about your videos is that your kitchen looks like most peoples, including mine, and it gives me the courage to try your recipes! LOVE your channel!🤠👍📺🐕
Please clean your stove top...the burners are atrocious in every video.... Keep the videos coming...everyone can benefit from your knowledge and creativity!
@@marymprgan9066 I agree, but I know some people think ya can't get that burnt on stuff off of a glass cooktop but ya can!! It's cheap and easy... spray with vinegar, coat with baking soda, lay a wrung out damp towel over it for a half hour. Wipe then scrape with a plastic scraper. Repeat as necessary. Lisa - keep those videos coming, I LOVE them!!!!!!
Lisa you are so special, and your family is lucky to a have super smart woman at the helm of the family food budget!! Every dish was delicious and healthy!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
I’m a Cajun girl. Beans and rice is what I grew up eating and I’m so happy to know how to make some incredibly delicious dried beans of all varieties. With the rising grocery prices, being able to have that skill has really helped offset some of the costs as I am cooking more beans and rice lately. That and reducing the amount of meat we eat.
I discovered a good variation on rice and beans. Sauté scallion, yellow and purple onion, along with say an orange pepper and add that with pintos or black eye peas, black and kidney beans, a wee bit of garlic and spice to taste over white or whatever type rice. Very nice for a change.
This cooking style is classic and I love how you present your kitchen and meals. You're getting the most flavor out of your ingredients that you can and using everything. Families with a home cook like you are truly blessed.
It be neat to see what that regular budget looks like from just one store. $60 per week for 3 from Walmart $60 per week for 3 from Target $60 per week for 3 from Aldi $60 per week from Kroger Etc... 😊
This was sweet. When my family was young and money was very tight, I fed us all quite well using some of these very ideas. My children grew up eating plenty of beans. Pintos and Lima being the favorites. Veggies were always cheaper than meat. Many a chili and spaghetti sauce were chuck full of veggies, with half the meat. No one missed it. Besides, it was very good for them. I commented because your last recipe was a family favorite... Cupboard Surprise! 🙂 Basically taking whatever is in the cupboard that would go with whatever leftovers and make it new. The "Surprise!" part was because it always tastes so good.
I had to stop in the middle of your video to just let you know, I’m learning so much from you! I have a family of 6 plus two cats and two dogs. Groceries get so expensive! Learning how to make my leftovers stretch is so needed at times. And making certain foods from scratch.
I’ve watched so many of your videos and I LOVE that you know how to be extremely wise and frugal. And you don’t just save it for the extreme budget videos, you’re making those decisions in your normal life. I, too, keep a container of veggie scraps in the freezer for broth. I love that you reinvent the leftovers into new meals. Lastly, I love that you plan to have those leftovers as a strategy to reduce prep time on future meals. You’re hitting all the major points. You’re killing it. Thanks for being you!
The proper method of making refried beans is pork fat. Absolutely. I learned how to cook them whenever I was a teenager. I had a Cuban family that took care of me. I was so grateful for them. Because of them I could eat.
Lisa!!! You are a pure delight!! ❤️ Thank you for sharing, every meal looked amazing and love the perfect lunches too!! Big hugs of gratitude!! And sweet to see content kitty!! Thanks again for super ideas, Lisa!
LOVE your videos! Its super inspiring to see how easily you stretch your money & yet have healthy/flavorful meals. I'm learning so many things from watching you. Especially how you incorporate "made from scratch" into your meal planning. That's something I need to do more often to be honest. Hope you all have a fabulous weekend! Watching in Jacksonville, FL.🌴
Challenges were fun and inspiring, but these videos are more helpful for week to week prep. I love how you change up recipes with the same meats so they don't seem like leftovers. I appreciate your cooking style and philsophy...plus your cat is gorgeous!
Well done on a budget and busy nights! I agree with some other commenters about you making a cookbook for budget conscious and busy young people! Great planning!
@@ThatLisaDawn You let me know! I'd by it for my girls who are learning "adulting" , lol! Especially important now with the inflation of everything, including housing and fuel. You do a great job!
You are probably my favorite RUclipsr Lisa and I always Love reading the comments. Everyone is always so nice, positive, and Grateful. Thank you so much Lisa for posting these videos. They are such a help to so many of us, and I am extremely Grateful 🙂❤
I just love your cooking style and how you simplify recipes that could be complicated. As others have suggested, please write I cookbook, perhaps a digital version that people would gobble up!
I always watch your videos, they are so calming and I love watching you cook. I told my gf that we should try re-fried beans since it looks interesting. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Sweden
You inspire me to make more from scratch meals, since you make this accessible to smaller households. Sometimes it feels like too much work for only 2 people but the way you save money is motivating me.
Your channel just came up in my feed, and I am loving it! Dawn, you have so much ingenuity when it comes to cooking on a budget. I'm always wondering what other people eat lol. I love your channel because it's so REAL, and I can totally relate to the budget thing. I'm not a good cook; I'm learning a lot from you. Thanks for a great channel! ❤❤❤
You are a great cook! Wow! Really impressed with your seasonings and ideas for combining. EXCELLENT! Love how you conserve food and get the most out of it. The chicken broth idea was amazing with the vegetable scraps etc. The bones are always a problem for me too. Thanks for an informative and helpful video!
You are such an inspiration. Found your channel not too long ago. I think I’m going to try refried beans! We managed to get an almost brand new InstaPot at a church yard sale for $5 so seeing what you cook in it has been great. I know there are others on YT that show how to use it but your recipes on a budget and putting a whole meal together is the best. Blessings to you and your family.
Thanks for sharing your idea for making broth with your veggie scraps. I did this and added the bones and skin from a rotisserie chicken. I usually just throw this stuff away. Boy this stuff was gold when I cooked it down in the pressure cooker. The broth that came put of this concoction was amazing. I am so grateful that you showed this. I now have a bag I keep in the freezer with scraps. You rock, love love your videos. Rock on Girly!!!!
I just found your channel from a comment on Reddit. I'm really enjoying your videos. You have a down-to-earth, engaging personality and your subject matter is interesting and helpful. I appreciate that you include that people who need to can and should use ALL resources, including food kitchens and other places that have food available. When I was a student nurse, I helped out in schools that had days where food was offered free to families in need and it was eye-opening to see how many families turned out. Children especially should never go hungry!
I keep the skins on my sweet potatoes too, but it’s for the fibre. Your meals look great. I do the stir fry leftover with pork chops too. Timely! We have pork shoulders on sale for 1.97 a pound which is an amazing price here.
I'm so happy to see you back on RUclips... you are by far my favorite when it comes to shopping on a dime and cooking great meals for the week on a budget. Your cooking is so creative and it's absolutely inspiring me.
Thank you for the wonderful ideas. In these times pork butts/shoulders/hams on sale are a must. So much meat! Oh, to get a good caramelization on any meat, squeeze a little Caro or honey toward the end of cook time, then continue to fry or broil. You'll never taste it, but it gives a crispy golden goodness. I use this method for skillet fajitas & it works every time.
I made a pork loin like you do! Saved the drippings added water deglazed it all. Poured it ask over the meat, cooked it in the crockpot, then saved the juice!!! 😊 so delicious
Your meals look so rustic, delicious, and down home. This is real deal on how most people cook or should cook. I also love the cooking tips, like the two fork method on pulling apart that pork. I wish my neck of the woods had an aldi's cant tell you how many times I always think people are so lucky to have one or any discount food store at all. Fantastic video as usual.
Everything you make always looks so delicious 😋. I really love all the different ways you utilize the pressure cooker. I’m so glad I got mine. It makes cooking so much easier and I will never cook pork shoulder any other way now. The split pea soup looks amazing! I make a huge batch twice a year with the leftover ham and ham bones from Christmas and Easter ❤️ Now I’m hungry…lol. Time to go cook! ☺️
I love your videos . They are the best budget minded I have come across. Your grocery hauls are so good and I love how relaxed you are about your cooking.
Those pork shoulders are such a good deal, even though I live alone I always get one when they're on sale. When you break them down per meal it's crazy inexpensive. In fact I sliced a chunk off one I recently bought, cubed it and it's baking on top of Boston baked beans in my oven right now. And over the weekend I'll braise a chunk for sandwiches and the rest is in the freezer. Unfortunately by me they're not going on sale for .99/lb anymore, the best I get is $1.29/lb. And another vote for Pintos, when I make them I will often eat a good portion right out of a pan with a spoon. They're probably my favorite bean.
I'm in the same boat as you and I haven't seen .99 a lb pork shoulders in a whlie, but when I find a deal I grab one and bust out the crock pot and get some meals for the wife and I going.
@@ricktalbott9611 I’m not sure what it’s like all over, but by me (upper midwest) pork is consistently the cheapest of the American meat trinity, with chicken in the middle and beef more expensive than both by a long shot.
@@getoffmydarnlawn It's the same here in eastern PA as well. We normally use a good amount of 93% / 7% ground turkey and I really don't miss ground beef anymore.
Betty Pecoraro is absolutely correct...You should SERIOUSLY consider doing a cookbook,....I LOVE your videos with great ideas, tips and humor...I would totally by a cookbook if it was written by you. You are amazing....keep these videos coming, please!!!
I don’t eat meat (or cheese or eggs generally) but I love watching your videos to see how well you prepare everything. You have such a good sense of flavour combinations and you clearly know how to cook very well! Well done!!
Hi. I just found you the other day and have been binging your videos. I just want to say THANK YOU for all the ideas and inspiration. I've already learned so much :')
I love watching your videos! You have such a good attitude and everything you make looks delish! I felt like we ate quite a bit of beans until I saw your videos! They are so versatile, thank you for showing us different ways to use them!
My two Grandcats are such pitiful girls with such a hard life. They suffer through having to accept treat, food, toys and a 2 cat trees. They even deal with having to sleep in the bed. Maybe one day their life can be more fulfilling and they can learn what being spoiled is🤦🏻♀️
It would be such a boring video 😅 My hair is mostly a "less is more" approach. I avoid using heat, don't over wash it, and the only products I use is whatever shampoo and conditioner is on sale between Aussie, Tresseme, Garnier, and Herbal Essences.
Love this video. You are an awesome shopper and cooker. I need to write this stuff down along with ingredients. Thank you for these videos. What a sweet cat! Take care!
It does take a lot of discipline to plan your meals, and make them a reality, I admire you , even though the prices of grocery are higher I still sometimes can’t grasp the energy to go and cook , and I end up eating a hamburger from a cheap place. After seeing your videos I will try again this coming week.
Lisa is a hero and inspiration to all of us, no matter what station of life. Her meals are delicious, nutritious, and she is an awesome steward of resources! Love your content, bless you for sharing ❤️
Hello I love your videos they have given me lots of inspiration in my personal way of cooking living on a budget and I only have a crockpot because we don't technically have a kitchen

@@getoffmydarnlawn I just read chicken is going up by 70%, I'm guessing that will change certain diets.

Betty Pecoraro is absolutely correct...You should SERIOUSLY consider doing a cookbook,....I LOVE your videos with great ideas, tips and humor...I would totally by a cookbook if it was written by you. You are amazing....keep these videos coming, please!!!
Awesome ideas!! Thank you so much! Love love love the cast iron cooking!
I like this video!
What did you put in the rice that made it turn orange? I want to make that rice!
🙃😊♥️
You can crisp up the pork by sauteeing it in the pork fat in the pan, that way it doesn't dry out. Love your videos!!
I don’t eat meat (or cheese or eggs generally) but I love watching your videos to see how well you prepare everything. You have such a good sense of flavour combinations and you clearly know how to cook very well! Well done!!
You made my week when I saw you FINALLY posted a new video!!!!!
Glad to see you back!🌸🌸🌸
I love these videos. I don’t follow any of these recipes exactly but they open my mind to ways to be creative in my own cooking.
That's the goal! I barely follow recipes myself, but I always hope to offer a little cooking inspiration.
We used to put barley in my split pea and ham soup..nice and rib sticking good !
Hi. I just found you the other day and have been binging your videos. I just want to say THANK YOU for all the ideas and inspiration. I've already learned so much :')
I love watching your videos! You have such a good attitude and everything you make looks delish! I felt like we ate quite a bit of beans until I saw your videos! They are so versatile, thank you for showing us different ways to use them!
Another home run video! It's good to see that I'm not the only one who has a poor, helpless and hopeless little kitty who never gets fed Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My two Grandcats are such pitiful girls with such a hard life. They suffer through having to accept treat, food, toys and a 2 cat trees. They even deal with having to sleep in the bed. Maybe one day their life can be more fulfilling and they can learn what being spoiled is🤦🏻♀️
Can you do a video on how you take care of your beautiful hair? Like hair products, masks, styling?
It would be such a boring video 😅 My hair is mostly a "less is more" approach. I avoid using heat, don't over wash it, and the only products I use is whatever shampoo and conditioner is on sale between Aussie, Tresseme, Garnier, and Herbal Essences.
Excited to see that there was another video. Good one!
Love this video. You are an awesome shopper and cooker. I need to write this stuff down along with ingredients. Thank you for these videos. What a sweet cat! Take care!
It does take a lot of discipline to plan your meals, and make them a reality, I admire you , even though the prices of grocery are higher I still sometimes can’t grasp the energy to go and cook , and I end up eating a hamburger from a cheap place. After seeing your videos I will try again this coming week.
Thanks!
Thank you Nancy! 💜💜💜
Everything looked soo yummy! You and your skills are very much appreciated. You prove you can eat good on a tight budget...🌷

Hello I love your videos they have given me lots of inspiration in my personal way of cooking living on a budget and I only have a crockpot because we don't technically have a kitchen
