Thank you so much for being here. I love and appreciate you all so much!! 💗 Here’s five more dinners we love: ruclips.net/video/XD4ot50QmMo/видео.html
Julia, you're the best! I just discovered your channel a few days ago and I'm so grateful. I'm sure there are alot of other cooking channels out there... But yours is the only one I've watched and the only one to inspire me to get in the kitchen!!! I'm 47 years old and cooking for the first time. I was always overwhelmed and frustrated learning how to cook. But you make it easy... The recipes are simple and tasty, and I'm enjoying it! Many thanks and much love 😊❤️
The little things mean so much. The messages on the little accent pieces are so sweet. Thank you for spreading the love you do!
Grateful for you Julia! You and your family have a blessed Thanksgiving! Look forward to your gifts of great meal ideas and recipes in December!
Thank you. Im thinking I may of missed your Friday video 💗
Thank you so very much! That really means the world to me to hear that you enjoy my channel so much and you have learned so much from it. Thanks so very much for your positive support and I am happy to have you as one of my loyal subscribers🙌🏼
Stir your dried gravy mix (or flour) into your potatoes or meat BEFORE adding the liquid to prevent the dried ingredient from clumping. A trick my mother-in-law taught me many years ago. Also, drain the liquids from your beans (except black beans)and other vegetables into your measuring cup then fill with the water needed for the recipe. This will save the nutrients in the juices and add flavor to your dish.
Yes on using the can liquid! Even reserve it for a different day, doesn’t need to be in the same dish
My favorite pizza is Crazy Crust, just Google recipe, it’s so good and cheap
Too many people think a ten cent difference in price doesn’t really matter but it adds up quickly so save on that onion and watch the prices. Right now our local market has 10 pounds of rice for $5.49, what a steal! Rice pudding is a yummy breakfast or dessert - add dried cranberries to make it holiday festive 😊 🦃🎄
I love the real life recipes & tips, thanks Julie
@@annswann1941 I've never heard of Crazy Crust....but I'm going to check it out!
@@annswann1941 I just looked up crazy crust pizza, I've never hear of it, can't wait to try it!
Love the hack for the potato soup, definitely will be trying that!
God bless your channel! As a twenty-something that has her first apartment with my fiancé, we are meal planning every week and hitting up Walmart and your recipes have been so delicious and budget-friendly!
I am so happy to hear that these videos help, Victoria! And good for you guys! Hope you have a great week and thanks for the positive feedback🙌🏼
that's really awesome. so happy to hear that.
Omg Im in the same position right now!!
Victoria is that really you 😮😍🙈
You are so smart to do this!!
I used to work in a pizza place and before I finished my shift I would make a pizza to take home. And every time, I would add the garlic butter they used for garlic strips, to my pizza before I added the sauce. The flavour it adds is amazing!
I do this as well when I use Naan bread.
I bet that was amazing! Thanks so much for watching and I appreciate your tip🙌🏼
I do that when I go to MOD pizza, I always say can you put garlic butter on the crust before the red sauce. 😋
Garlic butter! It does a body good 👍 😋
I'm a single 38-year-old dude and I'm pretty sure this is one of my new favorite channels. Thank you!!
I am so happy to hear that my channel is your newest favorite! Thank you so very much for your positive comment and I hope you enjoy my other recipes🙌🏼🙌🏼
My 4 year old daughter and I made the French bread pizza tonight and it was a hit! I love that I could involve her in the process and she actually ate it! Thank you for these recipes.
That’s wonderful to hear! Thank you so much for sharing your positive comment and so glad you and your daughter enjoyed it💜🙌🏼
With my husband going on long-term disability and me staying home to care for him...your meal ideas are soooo helpful! Going to try that potato soup one soon, we just got a bunch of snow~
Been on a tight budget this week, made 3 of these already and my hubby is pleased, thank you for all your videos
Thank you so much for sharing that, Barbara! I’m so happy to hear that those recipes have been a hit with you and your husband. Thank you so very much for watching and I really do appreciate your positive feedback😉💜
In the last soup, I would add fresh sliced Zucchini instead of the canned green beans. It would still be within budget and taste so much more fresh!!🤗. Love your budget recipes! I have 11 kids so I just double and triple your recipes!!❤️
Wow 11 kids! What a blessing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🧡
Definitely a great suggestion! Thank you so much for sharing that and I hope you enjoy this recipe🙌🏼 and good for you! What an amazing family you have. Hope you have a wonderful week!
That's the way you like it but i don't
Wow
Damn! 11 kids.
The potato soup has become one of our favorite camping dinners. It’s so easy to pack and throw together. In fact many of your recipes have become easy and delicious camping recipes for us.
Wow! That is awesome to hear. I’m so very happy that you enjoyed that potato soup and are able to use it when you’re camping. Good for you guys! Thanks so much for the positive feedback and I hope you have a great week🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love these ideas! It is cheaper and healthier to use frozen mixed vegetables. You can get a 5 lb bag for about $6-$7 and use a cup at a time as needed or get 1 lb bags For around a dollar and just use half if you would like. It has twice as much as the can and doesn't have all of the preservatives.
Wow, you are always full of ideas! I am def going to try that potato soup recipe! So simple, easy, and quick! When I make potato soup from scratch, it is a lot of work and takes a long time. Your way skips the prep and saves time. Thank you!
I sure hope you enjoy this version of potato soup, Michelle! You’re so right. It definitely can take a lot longer. Thanks so much for your positive comment and I hope you enjoy this recipe too😉🙌🏼🙌🏼
I used to cook a lot of elaborate meals but we are way busy now, I am tired of feeding my family gross overpriced fast food so glad I found your channel your ideas are simple and budget friendly things I would have never thought of. And tasty.
Thank you so very much for your very positive feedback! And I know what you mean, I am so busy at night that the last thing I want to do, even for me, is come up with a meal. That is why I like to make these sorts of recipes. Thank you so very much for your positive feedback and I really do appreciate you watching😉🙌🏼🙌🏼
I too have gotten to the age where certain foods are just not worth making. Either they call for 10 ingredients, 9 of which you will never use again, or it's too complicated and takes hours. It's just not worth it. I never make bread, or time-consuming bakery goods. If a recipe has more than 5 ingredients I won't make it anymore. (not counting seasonings). I love cooking and faithfully make up my 6 days of menus for the week and shop accordingly. I still buy certain "great" deals, especially meats, but my time left on earth is not worth it. I am closing in on 66 in June. There are literally THOUSANDS of great recipes with very few ingredients out there. Just look and you will be surprised. You will never eat all of them, I promise! Plus it makes you feel good knowing that 99% of people eating a small ingredient meal will rave about it compared to a 12 ingred one that still doesn't turn out!
Thank you so much for making this video, the winter months are tough financially between holidays, oil for heat, and LIFE - this is going to be a stress free meal prep month now for our work lunches. And my students will love making the pizzas with me as a treat these next two Fridays.
I am so happy to hear that you’ll be able to use these recipes and most of all, that they will provide less stress in your life. Prices are just crazy right now and any little bit helps right now for sure. Thank you so much for your positive comment and I hope your students enjoy these pizzas😉💜💜
Thanks, Julia! There are so many things to appreciate about you and your content! I love that you sometimes take us along when shopping! I recognize the products you pick out and know just where to find them in my own store! I also love that you stick with simple, easy recipes (because I hate to cook and hate it even more when I spend a lot of time and money to make a dish that is just so-so!) Finally, I appreciate that these meals are all kid-friendly! Not only will my son eat all of these meals, he can so easily get involved in helping me cook them!
Thank you so very much, Christine for all of that positive feedback and I sure do appreciate your comment! Sure does help me so very much and means the world to me too.
Thank you so very much for your positive feedback again and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your weekend😉💜💜
I appreciate you so much! My family is having a hard time right now. You’re budget meals are saving us!
I am happy to hear that my recipes can help right now, Roxanna. I’m sorry you are all going through such a hard time, I hope things get better soon💜💜
I love watching your videos. You are to the point and just the right amount of commenting. My kids told me it’s because I am a little unfocused and my eyes glaze over easy! You recipes suit me perfectly. Thank you, don’t ever change.
Ha ha! That is so funny, Marjory! I am exactly the same way, that is exactly why I get to the point right away. Thank you so much for your positive comment💜💜
Regarding checking price per ounce, I recommend doing a quick mental verification that the listed price per ounce is correct (because sometimes the labels on the shelves are not correct). Another tip: Don't always assume that the larger container is less per ounce than the smaller container (sometimes, it isn't).
I buy the Festive brand ground turkey every time I need it for a recipe! I can't believe that it's more affordable than ground beef. I'm so used to ground beef being a lower cost. That makes me happy to see though as someone who doesn't like a lot of red meat! Walmart and Dollar Tree have been the best options for us recently when it's grocery time. I love getting to see what you create from low-cost options. Thanks for helping us save money and giving us fun recipes!
Thank you so much for your tip about the Dollar tree! I know a lot of my viewers like to go to the dollar store to find food on a budget. I definitely have found some good frozen food there! Thank you so much for sharing your comment about the ground turkey too. I really appreciate that! Thank you so very much for watching😉🙌🏼🙌🏼
everyone just loves to save money. this is a great way!
Those are fantastic dinner ideas that will fill you up and have leftovers!! I appreciate how you show to cook good food on a budget!! Thanks Julia
Thank you so very much, Cheryl💜
Thank you for all the time and effort you put in to provide us with so many ideas for delicious and cost saving meals!!
Well thank you so very much, Tammy. I really appreciate your positive words💜🙌🏼
I like you put grocery shopping clips . It helps me a lot
I so needed this since I have teenagers and food is so expensive. I was just scrolling down YT and you showed up, you have no idea how much you have helped me I can’t wait to try all of them next week. God bless you.
I am so so happy to hear that! And with teenagers in the house, things get super expensive! I hope you are able to use a lot of these recipes and thank you so very much for your positive comment. I’m so happy to hear that you found me😉💜💜
I made the Fajita Pasta and the Potato Soup. Both were so good!!! I did add garlic powder to the potato soup and I put half of the mixture in a blender so that the soup would be creamy. I did as you suggested and put real bacon bits, green onions and cheddar cheese on top. This was TOP TIER and did not taste like a $5 meal. Thank you so much❤️
That sounds amazing! I definitely think that those adjustments made it even better. So happy to hear that and thank you so very much for your positive comment here😉💜💜
Julia: I just wanted to thank you for making recipes that don’t rely on either chicken or (that much) cheese as I have to cook for people who don’t like either. Really appreciate the trouble you went to and as always your meals will be made for the coming week. Very grateful. xx
Well thank you so very much, Susanne for your positive feedback. I appreciate that and thank you so much for watching! Sure hope everyone enjoys these meals😉🙌🏼
Your so adorable!! Thank you for your ideas! I'm making menus for this coming week with these meals..your awesome! Ty❤️
This is so needed! Thanks for sharing! Tip: anyone that wants fluffy rice that doesn’t stick together...rinse, rinse, rinse under cold water before cooking. Not only does it rinse away impurities, but the starch that makes it sticky!
@erin s. What rice do you use in slow cooker for fluffy rice? 5 mins?
@@karrifohey7848 Almost and kind of rice, as long as you rinse. Rinsing is the key. Doesn’t matter how you cook it, in a rice cooker, instapot, stove top. Follow cooking directions, just rinse it.
Such an awesome tip, Erin! Thank you so much for sharing that. I sure do appreciate it and I hope you enjoy these recipes🙌🏼
My favorite videos!! You are so creative and always make me feel like I can do this!!
That makes my day! Thanks so very much for sharing that with me, Alicia😉🙌🏼
Love these! Quick, easy, and cheap! This is great for moms who are getting ready to have their kids out of school during Christmas break!
That is so true! Thanks so very much for your positive feedback and I hope you enjoy these recipes. Enjoy your time with your kids for Christmas break😉💜
Aww I just went grocery shopping! I'll add some of these recipes next week! Thank you!!!!
That’s awesome, Alile! Sure hope you enjoy the recipes and I sure do appreciate you watching💜
We are on a tight budget this winter and this video helped a lot on some cheap meal ideas!
I am so happy to hear that these recipes can help you, Kirsti🙌🏼
Love your videos.Makes it easy for me to do my grocery shopping and plan my meals for the week. Thank You Julia !!!!!
I am so happy to hear that! Thank you so much for your positive feedback and I hope you have a great week🙌🏼
First of all I love all the recipes you made. Your stove and cookware I need them. I love your little inspirational backgrounds such a nice touch.
Thank you so very much! I really do appreciate you watching and I sure do appreciate your positive feedback. A lot of my cookware you can find in my Amazon store if you’re interested😉 thanks so very much for your support!!
I love all of these affordable recipes and am really looking forward to trying them. I had never seen potato soup made with hashbrowns! What a great idea! The pizza sauce hack is a good one and I know that easy pizza will be a hit around here. Thank you, Julia for these great recipes! Have a blessed week!💕🙏
Thank you so very much, Michelle! I sure hope you enjoy these recipes and really do appreciate your positive feedback! Have a wonderful rest of your week and hope you enjoy these meals🙌🏼
These recipes look amazing. Cannot wait to try all of them. Last night I made your One Hour Rolls recipe (from Thanksgiving Sides video). My husband said “These are really good!” Not just good but really good!! 😮 Thank you for all you do. Wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving!
That’s awesome news! So glad they turned out so well🙌🏼🙌🏼So happy to hear your hubby liked them so much . That’s an awesome win. That you so much for your positive feedback and hope you and your family have a great Thanksgiving 🦃🦃
They all look so tasty, Julia. Never thought of using hash browns for my potato soup. What a genius time saver. I'm happy to see you've recovered from the flu. I had it the beginning of Oct. and I wasn't out of bed for 6 days and it was another two weeks before I gained back my energy. Of course I'm 30 years older than you and that has an effect on how quick you bounce back.
Thank you so much for your kind words about my health! I really appreciate your concern. It definitely has still left my body pretty tired though. I may be younger than you, but I do have two little kids under the age of three. Ha ha! Thank you so much for watching and for your positive comment💜💜
Thank you and your work here. My wife and I have been married 29 years this year and many of these recipes we will try. You are never too old to save money. Strong work!
That is so very true! Thank you so very much for your positive comment and I hope you both enjoy some of these new ideas😉🙌🏼
I love a good budget recipe video. Everything looks fantastic especially that pizza and those soups. Walmart is a good place to shop for national audience. Keep at it you can do it. Keep wild Bill and your little ones well fed and stay safe. You rock.
Thank you so very much for that! Hope you enjoy the pizza and soups this week. And as always, I love your comments. Have a wonderful rest of your week🙌🏼
Thank you, Julia! These will be very helpful between paydays!!!! :) Hope everyone is well there this week!!!
Thank you so very much, Laura💜
I find your videos so entertaining. The recipes are affordable and easy. Your sweet personality is sooo refreshing. Keep it up girl.
Thank you so very much, Jodi! I really do appreciate your positive feedback and your kind comment means so much to me! Thank you so very much!😉🙌🏼
Thank you so much for these quick recipes ideal. Cheap meals indeed
Thank you Julia. Everything looks so tasty.
Wishing you and your family a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving.
I sure do appreciate that, Donna! Wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving week and time with family😉🦃🦃
Amazing recipes as usual!! I can't believe how easy that potato soup was! I would've never thought to combine those ingredients! The pasta and pizza look delicious as well!!
I sure hope you enjoy that soup! It definitely is really good and Pizza is just great anytime. Thank you so much for your positive comment and have a great rest of your week😉💜💜
I can never wait for what's next! I've never tried a recipe of yours I have not liked or loved! Thank-you for all you do to inspire us!
Well thank you so very much, Helen! That is wonderful feedback. And I sure do appreciate it! Have a great week and I hope you enjoy these recipes too💜
Times are tough right now. Thank you always 💓
Absolutely true, Tara🥴I sure hope you enjoy some of these recipes!
I soooo love your recipes!! You've made my foodie life better ❣️
Ha ha! That’s awesome to hear, Monique! Thank you so much and I hope you have a great week thanks so much for watching💜💜
What a great idea for potato soup! We love potato soup, but sometimes I just don’t feel like all the peeling and chopping. This is a great, inexpensive hack. Thanks so much! I will be trying this very soon. I make soup a LOT this time of year.
I’m so happy to hear that! Hope you enjoy this version of potato soup. It definitely is a lot easier! Thanks so much for watching🙌🏼
Good morning and this was very helpful. Thank you.
Hope your feeling better. Hugs the precious babies.
Thank you so very much, Barbara! And yes, I am beginning to feel better. Thank you so very much for your well wishes. The babies are doing great too! Thanks so much for asking💜💜
Wow, that's an awesome quick way of making potato soup! Loved your recipes as always. Have a blessed week! ❤️
I am so happy to hear that, Rose! Sure do appreciate your positive feedback and hope you enjoy some of the recipes too have a wonderful week!💜💜
I love the potato soup hack. I will definitely have to give it a try. I use the Pioneer gravy mix all the time and never thought to use it as a soup base along with the cubes (broth). Glad to see you feeling better. Take care of yourself and the family. Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
I know, I’m going to get the stuff back to try this when, I go do my Thanksgiving shopping! Definitely would save a lot of time, course, it would be good with some of those rolls, I am going to try for thanksgiving!
I sure hope you enjoy that potato soup, Janene. It definitely is a quick way to do it! Thank you so much for your positive feedback and I sure do appreciate your kind words and hope you have a great rest of your week. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family😉🦃🦃
As someone who has made potato soup for years, this version absolutely blew me away! So easy!
These recipes all look extremely tasty! Thanks for sharing your creative mind with us Julia! 👩🍳
Thank you so very much, Samantha! Hope you enjoy😉💜
It is very helpful to me when you film yourself buying the different ingredients. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! I appreciate you sharing that with me🙌🏼
Julia,Thanks again for sharing another budget friendly video full of Deliciousness!😋 Those pizzas look Soooo Good!!
Thank you so very much, Tammi! Sure hope you enjoy that pizza too😉🍁
I just ordered the over the sink strainer & the 7 quart crockpot (only $29!!) from your Amazon recommendations. Can’t wait to start making your crockpot recipes! Happy Thanksgiving, I am grateful for you & your channel 😊
That’s awesome, Monica! I sure hope you enjoy them and I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family. Thank you so very much for watching😉🦃🦃
Always great to watch you! Thank you !!❤
Thank you so very much, Tammy💜💜
My family loved your potato soup recipe tonight. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
Thank you for the potato soup hack !!
You’re the best Julia !!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your beautiful family !!!!
Thank you so very much, Patrice! You’re the best! Ha ha. I sure do appreciate your positive comments and I sure hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving too!😉🦃🦃
@@JuliaPacheco 💜
I love this! I make French bread pizza all the time and never thought about the garlic butter tip. I will do this next time. And I think homemade sauce like you made is better than canned/ jarred. That's the way mom and I have always done it. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so very much! I sure hope you enjoy that garlic butter with your pizza. Thank you so very much for watching and I really do appreciate your support😉🙌🏼
Julia, you never disappoint! Another bunch of budget friendly meals. TY!
Well thank you so very much, Nancy!🙌🏼
Wonderful ideas, Julia!! I love your videos and your upbeat vibe. Keep up the excellent work. Thank you!
Thank you! Always trying to feed our family of 8 for $10 or under. 🥰
Wow! You are amazing! I sure hope you are able to at least come close to that. That would be awesome! Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a great week 😉🙌🏼
Well I just made the ziti vegetable soup and it was a hit with the spouse and daughter(who is a vegetarian). they wish for me to make it in the future. I cannot wait to try the faijta pasta, french bread and potato soup recipes as well.
I am so happy to hear that everyone enjoyed that recipe so much! Thanks so much for your positive feedback and hope you have success with the rest. Have a wonderful rest of your week!
Loved the soup meals perfect for this time of year!
one thing that i want to give props for with this video... look, it's great to make EVERYTHING from scratch and, no doubt, it'd be amazing and, hey, possibly better than this. but sometime you either don't have the time or, more importantly, the energy to do so. the shortcuts and tips & tricks in these recipes are wonderful for those times.
mad props and thank you, julia.
Thank you so very much! I sure do appreciate your positive feedback! That really means the world to me. Thank you so very much for watching🙌🏼
These recipes look wonderful! I just went shopping for our Thanksgiving dinner. I spent $249. That was my entire grocery budget for 2 weeks so these recipes will definitely help. Thank you. I hope you have some great Thanksgiving leftover recipes on the horizon.😁
I would have added some fresh sliced carrots and celery to that soup.
I sure hope you enjoy these recipes! And I think $249 it was a great deal, sadly enough. Things have just gotten so crazy! I sure hope you enjoy some great leftovers 🙌🏼
Next time try a potluck! We do this all the time now, because it's just not fair that one family has to pay for AND make all the food. Not with food prices so high. We just decide who will bring what kind of dish and go from there. I think everyone enjoys bringing a special dish too. Nobody makes anything too strange and were all excited to try a new (or favorite old time) recipe you normally wouldn't make on a regular basis.
I have never added peppered gravy to my potato soup! Great idea! Definitely trying the pizza for Wednesday dinner ! Thank You for sharing your wonderful ideas with us! Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🍽🦃🧡💚💛🍂
I am so happy to hear that, Janice! It definitely does make a difference in the soup for sure! Thank you so much for your positive comment and I hope you enjoy that pizza this week too. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving🦃🦃
Hey name friend! I am so impressed with your work! I've been meaning to start watching your videos for a while now and I'm so grateful I watched this one today. Just wow! You do a fabulous job and your ideas are fresh and look very delicious. Thank you!
Thank you, THANK YOU!!! Another week of Great EASY dinner ideas & on a BUDGET! HAPPY you are feeling well enough to make video. P.S. This Grandma LOVES getting a peek of Your Precious little one!!! Happy Thanksgiving & God Bless! 🦃🦃🦃🦃
Thank you so very much, Elizabeth. I hope you enjoy these recipes and I sure do appreciate your positive feedback! Thanks so much for your kind words about the girls too. I sure do appreciate your loyal support here! Have a great rest of your week and thanks for watching😉💜💜
Everything looks great as usual. French bread pizza is my favorite. Thanks for these budget friendly recipes. Happy Thanksgiving Julia! 😻💐💜
Thank you so very much and happy Thanksgiving to you and your family too😉🦃🦃
@@JuliaPacheco you're welcome and thank you.
Thank you so much for these videos. I know this one is old but I came across it and it is SO needed right now! I'm not the best at planning creative meals, just have always bought what I wanted to eat that week but being on a tighter budget that doesn't really work. Your creativity in these recipes is amazing and I'm trying every one this week, they all look delicious!
Well I sure do you think you so much! I appreciate your positive feedback about this video and I sure do hope it helps. It is definitely easy to get stuck in a rut and when you’re hungry and tired, it’s hard to be creative. Thank you so much for your wonderful support and I hope you have a great week💜💜
we made your spaghetti chicken crock pot recipe tonight it was out of this world...thanks so much
Hi Julia!!! The meals you made today looked real tasty. My pick is the pizza because I have been hungry for a good pizza. It just looked very delish. I will be sending this to my family. Have a wonderful day. Great video my friend!!!...
Thanks so very much, Diane! Hope your family enjoys this pizza recipe. I sure do appreciate your positive support💜💜
All of these are great! I think the only thing I would change is getting a frozen bag of mixed veggies instead of the can. Less sodium, only 14¢ more and could be split between at least two different recipes so it would still keeps everything at around $5 per recipe ☺️
Absolutely true! I prefer frozen vegetables myself too. Thank you so much for sharing that tip and thank you so very much for watching😉🙌🏼
Same thing I thought and frozen mixed vegetables taste so much better.
You are such a joy to watch! Great ideas, and with Christmas around the corner, if I can save on meals...fantastic. Thank you.
Thank you so very much, Celeste😉 I sure do appreciate your positive comment and I hope you enjoy these recipes and that they are helpful for your budget!😉🙌🏼
I love your "I just love carbs" sign! ❤️ Same girl same!
I’m going to challenge myself to do this! We could definitely use some extreme budget dinners added in each week! Thanks for sharing 😊
That’s awesome! Hope you enjoy the recipes too. Thanks so much for your positive response😉🙌🏼
These all look so good Julie! Add some additional dried oregano to the pizza sauce - it’s the characteristic flavor of pizza sauce. Also if you want it thicker, stir in some tomato paste.
Great tip, I need it! Thanks so very much for that. And I sure do appreciate your positive feedback😉🙌🏼
My kids are enjoying creating all your foods. They are all delicious. Especially your dump and go casseroles. You give such great instructions! Thank you so much! You are making food enjoyable and affordable something I know my family of 5 really needs!
I am so happy to hear that your children enjoy making my recipe so much! That really does mean a lot to me to hear that. Thank you so much for sharing that and I really do appreciate your positive feedback! I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week and thank you so very much for watching😉💜💜

Thank you so very much! I sure do appreciate your positive comments and your kind words💜
I made three of these recipes - all AH mazing! My kids loved them all, too. Thank you!
I am so very happy to hear that! When your kids love the recipes then it is definitely a home run for sure. Thank you so much for sharing!😉💜

I'm officially obsessed with you, and wanna cry writing that, because I've had a long, hard food journey, and you're helping me to reconnect to food and the love of cooking - and saving money! ♡ It actually makes it fun. Thank you so much for doing these, you mean a lot to a lot of people. 🤍
Well thank you so very much for your love and support! I sure appreciate it so very much and I am so happy to hear that i have helped you so much. That really does make my day! I hope you enjoy these recipes and have a great rest of your day, Jane💜💜
This is so helpful and easy!!! Thank you!!!
The potato soup recipe, I use frequently. I love putting it in the crock-pot before work. Always nice to have a quick easy potato soup after work.
That’s awesome! I’m so happy to hear that you love that potato soup. I hope you have a great rest of your week and thanks for watching😉🙌🏼🙌🏼
I always love watching and listening to your videos. I get great ideas for kids and family
I am so happy to hear that you get so many great ideas for your kids, Shelly! That is definitely awesome news. Hope you have a great week and thank you so much for watching🙌🏼
Thank you so much for this! Another amazing video of yours, Julia!
