Amy, I love this idea! Being older and caring for a hubby in stage 4 cancer I often find myself with little time to cook. He doesn’t eat much now on most days, so this is perfect. I would like to see more videos like this. Thank you for always finding a way to encourage others. God bless
Thank you so much for this. I am a widow living alone, and find I end up just eating junk, because I can't think of anything to eat. I would love to have more of this kind of meal prep.
Tip: You can put a small piece of paper towel at the top of each salad container. It will help soak up any moisture and keep your lettuce crisp longer. :) Also good to put a paper towel in the salad bag/box if you have any left over. Hope this helps someone!
Since two of my kids are in college and my husband works 13 hours a day and travels 2 hours, its often just my youngest daughter and I eating. This is perfect! Reading these Psalms with you really is a wonderful start to my day. Thank you!
Sitting in his word in the morning helps me get motivated and get things started for the day. Listening to Amy reading a psalm in the morning just really helps.
Good morning Amy, I am also single and I make Sunday my cooking day so I do vegetable cleaning and prep for my meals and veggies with dip, I like to bake four medium potatoes then scoop out the flesh and mix with cream cheese, butter, bacon, cooked broccoli and green onions then top with cheddar cheese, stuff your potatoe skins put on a baking sheet and freeze, once frozen I will wrap each one individually and put back in freezer, this gives me eight servings and I’ll have this with a nice salad. I’ll make a stew and pack and freeze single servings. When I make spaghetti sauce I freeze that in single servings and I also cook my noodles and freeze them in small baggies as well. I will also cook up ground beef and package up in baggies and freeze to have on hand for what ever. I love to cook so I will package up some meals for my friend as well who is alone too and won’t cook proper meals very often so this way it’s there for her to just heat and eat. I just wanted to pass on some ideas for you and your followers, have a great day!
@@deidrecruickshank6056 I’m glad I was helpful, I like to share my ideas and gather recipes from any of you followers out there, sometimes you want to shake things up in your kitchen lol
Thank you so much this really helped me with meals. I’m a senior with cancer sometimes I just don’t feel like cooking so making meals ahead is a blessing. Hope you have a wonderful day👍
I just can't thank you enough for this help with meals for one. I am 73 and live alone. I love having this ease and not having to do all the changes to meals to fit one and maybe a freeze meal too. Thank you so much Amy
I'm pretty sure this is going to help a lot of people. I know 17 years ago when my husband and I got married it was so hard for us to cook for just 2 people! I grew up in a household of cooking for 6 people and my husband was used to cooking for 4. So needless to say we always ended up cooking too much for one meal. So we had lots of leftovers and extras I would freeze for later. We ended up only having one son who actually turns 15 today and we still normally cook more than what's needed but just not as much as it was in the past LOL. Having plenty of food already in the freezer is nice especially for those nights you really don't feel like cooking and also those times when money is running low!
I hear you! We were in the military and really making a dollar go a long way. From taking one pound ground and splitting into 2 meals for family of 4 years. Back in 80-90 were a whole lot cheaper but still a budget for a month was 60.oo-80.00. Had to be very creative. Alot of beans.
@@Barbaracoyle First of all I would like to say a big thank you for your service! Second, I was born in 82 so growing up in the 80s-90s I too remember eating lots of pinto beans and taters. A lot of times we weren't able to have a meat with our meals at all because it was so expensive! I also remember helping my Mama clip coupons so we could spend as little as possible. I'm still thankful for that because I still clip coupons for myself now to help out with cost. My parents both worked back then my Dad worked as a mechanic for a trucking company, he was also the full time Assistant Pastor at our church and my Mama was a full time Registered Nurse. One thing that still bothers me today is how underpaid and underappreciated our military are treated! I personally think our military and veterans should be taken care of the best when it comes to being paid, having full access to the best healthcare and they should be able to eat good for every meal and not have to scrimp and save every little penny just to barely get by living paycheck to paycheck! I think that's just the least our government should do for y'all with as many sacrifices y'all had to make just for choosing to serve our country! Ms. Coyle I want you to know you have my most sincere and the utmost respect and I will be praying for you and your family! I also want you to know I mean every word of this from the bottom of my heart! I hope you have a very good night and I pray that nothing but blessings upon blessings to come your way each and every day! ❤❤❤😉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I’m working on a month version of single meals for my son. I’m prepping everything. I have done breakfast burritos, breakfast biscuits, breakfast rice, and overnight oats. Some mornings I have him scheduled for omelette with prechopped ingredients. He enjoys cooking so much. I try to prep meats in their marinade in individual bags , label and freeze them for him to assemble. I never thought about freezing the rice with fillers such as beans & veggies. I loved this video!
Good morning. Thank you. I make different meals for each of myself and my daughter. We aren't fans of oatmeal and yogurt, other than that it looks great. I love to watch Jamerrill and yourself and try to adapt your recipes for 1 or 2. I hope you have a fantastic, fantastic day to you as well. See ya tomorrow
I guess I would prefer more Old Fashioned type foods (meat and potato types) as I cannot eat Mexican or spicy foods or black beans. Rice I can do. I enjoyed watching this and will watch for future ones to use. Thanks for Psalm reading again. Always good to hear. We are to finally have warm temps today and 50s tomorrow. I can't wait. Snow will melt and will feel like spring is here. Have a good day. 💙🙏🌞
Amy at first I used to watch you out of fascination of what you do for your family, now that I have 2 small children of my own I implement things on a smaller scale for my family of 4. You are a great teacher.
Cooking for 1 has been my life for a few yrs. Now and I love it! it was an adjustment and having lupus /RA it had a few adjustments but...I designated 1day every 2 weeks to do what you show here. I love the deli containers and find them to be perfect single portions ....I make stuffed shells bake, cool then divide into the containers , they hold 3-4 with a little sauce. Meatballs I do also ...3 large fit into the container ....I use them for meatball subs, or pasta dishes. I make mini keissers subs ham and cheese freeze and toss in my toaster oven, I'll also make a chilli meat sauce, ...my newest thing is I bought a very small crock pot basically enough for 2 people. When I buy meat I divide it into single portions when I freeze it..chicken breasts, Italian sausages, stew beef, etc... I will put in med. Potatoes 1 carrot, celery, onion a small pack of stew beef ( 8-9 pieces) add a little bed broth... And in 4 hrs I have a full meal. I use the smaller crock pot a lot..it's enough for my dinner and lunch the next day. Cooking for one can be difficult at first...but I found the better I ate the better I feel. Great video Amy. I still enjoy you big family cooking I just down size it a bit! I hope the lovely lady who asked you for this video finds it helpful!
We need a mass collab from all our favorite homeschool moms from different states! I live in Virginia and it's my first year homeschooling and have no clue what I need to do by the August 1st dead line 😱
I am a single person. Only thing is... I can't cook/bake due to my disability. My mother does all of that, for me, herself and dad. But these things can easily be done times 3, and then all of this becomes really useful. Your bigger "plans" are sometimes hard to do for 3 people, kind of hard to envision, but this can easily be multiplied by however much you need! Thank you!
Good Morning Amy! Thank you very much for always making such an amazing content and spreading such positive vibes and Gods word! Keep up the great work and God Bless you and your Family! 😊
I prep ahead when I can. It is so much easier to decide what is for supper! One tip that helps me out...since I have to utilize the local Food Pantry, I get rice and many canned goods from them. I prep the frozen meats (usually chicken) and get my meals done. Thanks for the meal ideas, Amy! God Bless!!
Good Morning Amy! You truly bless so many people around the world with all you do to help here in RUclips. This meal plan will help so many people. Makes me smile. Praise the Lord! 🙏 Have a wonderful and blessed day.
The food pantry cooking would be great. Some items is rice, dry pinto beans, canned green beans, one can soup cream of chicken, canned fruit, and canned chicken. For two people for one week. The ebt is about $6.00 a day for family of three for three meals. Thank you for all your hard work and wonderful cooking video's. Have a great weekend :)
Hi Amy, great content as always. We take leftover chili and I will make some spaghetti noodles and have chili topped spaghetti, you can top with cheese if you desire. It's cheap and uses up the leftover chili. God Bless you and your family.
Good evening Amy :) always trust in the Lord. Well done on preparing the requested meal plan. It's a difficult time adjusting to living alone, not being lonely but having the desire to cook a meal. I loved cooking and baking but struggle daily to find my way back to it. Blessings X
Miss Amy thank you very much this helped me greatly. I did my house cleaning plan one year ago and works like a charm however I was stuck in the food area. I do greatly appreciate this and you. Thank you again Annie from Canada.
I have been living with my niece and her family. About to move out and be on my own. I have been stressing over cooking for myself. This will help so much. Thank you!!!
This was great and I appreciate that you were able to create a plan for a single that still felt like home cooking that would be done for a family. How about creating a plan that a person could make and meal-prep ahead for an elderly couple? When my mom was in the caregiver role she got so tired of cooking yet missed good old comfort foods. However... like many elderly, she and Dad were supposed to be eating low sodium and low fiber. She was very independent and didn't want a lot of help but it was nice to be able to send a few freezer meals her way. When it was just her she was dealing with loneliness, loss and her own health issues so I tried to make meals that would tempt her but not cause a problem with her diet. Now that is a big challenge. Maybe you could create a meal plan that would be a blessing to the elderly.
Loooove love love these ideas do you have any series on getting extremely picky toddlers to try to eat anything my daughter is so hard to get to eat or even try anything she’s 3 and has always been hard to get to eat anything healthy thank you so much for the Bible readings I love having you read them you are such an amazing blessing!!!
Good morning Amy. This is fabulous for those days that your on a rush and need a lunch or breakfast out the door to school or work. Thanks for the advice on week plan meals so much easier plus we are saving money. God bless you and your family. Stay safe. Sending love from Puerto Rico 😘🇵🇷
I used to cook larger meals for YEARS and now its two people and I was stumped for a long time (Seriously who actually meal plans for 1-2 people?) used your large family meal Ideas (like the breakfast sandwiches and burritos) and broke them down to make smaller freezer meals, Dollar tree sells a three pack of Foil pans with paper lids for the freezer (then I found basically the same thing on Amazon plastic containers with lids that can be washed and reused). so I can still cook larger meals and break them down to 2 person sized. I consider your videos an Inspiration source. Thanks !
@@Barbaracoyle theses are the ones i referred to in the post ---- 50-Pack Meal Prep Plastic Microwavable Food Containers For Meal Prepping With Lids 28 oz. 1 Compartment Black Rectangular Reusable Storage Lunch Boxes - ---outstanding for meal prep and love that i can wash and reuse them and if some thing happens to it I can toss it out
Hi Amy. I love all of your videos and always looking forward to the next one! 🥰😍🥰 Thank you for all the hard work that you put into them for us. I would love to see some “healthy” extreme budget meals for 2! This last year has been hard on us and I need some new ideas for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Thank you in advance for considering it. 😁🥰 The Lord bless you and yours.
I love what you read in Psalm. You remind me of my sister so much she was such a wonderful person and the best Godly person you would ever met. I miss her such cancer took her in 2014
Good morning Amy! I certainly appreciate today’s video as a single person. Learned a lot of tips and ideas. Sometimes I donit know what I want but by planning ahead I have a great mix of foods rather cereal almost everyday, lol. This was awesome and thank you very much. Beautiful Psalm with a beautiful scene of nature at its best. You can feel God surrounding you. Have a fantastic and.
Amy, you are such a blessing! I've saved so much watching your videos, not only money but food, we probably have cut back to less than a third of food that used to end up in the trash, I used to hide the food that I had to throw away deep in the trashcan, just so I couldn't see it! I have what might be a dumb question - What brand or what store carries the burrito shell's that you often show, the large ones with the flaps that fold over on themselves? Thank you ❣️
I half your recipes and then freeze then in smaller 1-2 person size containers and freeze them. That means I don't have to stock my freezer for months.
Enjoyed this video. It’s just 2 of us. But we like to have a meat and 2 vegetables also. Can you do more videos showing meals because my husband doesn’t care for leftovers. It I make soup I have to freeze or give away because we don’t want all soups or casserole. Thanks for sharing!
I love all your videos. My problem is we (hubby and I) don't like taco or ranch flavor....we also don't like Mexican-style food. I'm always looking for recipes we can/will eat. Also, hubby is a diabetic, just another layer making it hard to find recipes.
hi amy 😃 you are one special lady ... whoever gets the pleasure of knowing you in real life are very lucky ...these are awesome for people n im getting some great ideas 🌈❤️
Make ahead, bacon,sausage n can use as needed ,I do breakfast burritos with veg, n or english muffin egg,sausage sandwiches n freeze them, make a pan of lasagna n or chicken fettuccine white sauce n devide it up n freeze, chicken breast chop up, cook now or later ,freeze in single size ,add veggies n stir fry, get small loaf pans ,make little meatloafs , beef,bean,cheese burritos ,I freeze, almost any meal you can split up n freeze or prep. Oatmeal with fruit , pancakes n freeze, bake a bunch of potatoes n use as needed , sweet taters ,mash or cut up n bag up n freeze .
Hi Amy, thanks for this I'm single too, and I love the look of some of these meal....Lol, you said tortillas correctly (torteeas) and then you changed it to tor-tillas! Wawahhhhh
I make normal size recipes and after i eat the meal I divide the rest up into individual portions and put in the freezer then take them out at a later date for a quick lunch or dinner saves so much time ans still delicious
I still think the big grocery haul on half of the maximum amount of food stamps for your size family would be a fun food video. If there's nine people at your house that eat and prepare food together that would be $688.50 for the entire month. Anything you buy at the store that's hot and ready to eat can't be bought on food stamps and certain energy drinks but you can get a rotisserie chicken, just has to be cold not hot. Exclude all non food items as well. Maybe a call to a local food pantry or a trip (not to get food) to see what they give out normally and how Covid has impacted the need for food.
@@amymaryon The majority of people who receive food stamps don't get anywhere near the maximum amount so thrift becomes a necessity. The calculation is 30% of monthly household income should go toward food cost so it's deducted off the maximum benefit. The minimum benefit is about $27 a month so there's a huge gap between the minimum and the maximum. There's also no tax on food stamp groceries so that helps to stretch them further. Paper products, hygiene items, cleaning products, wouldn't count in the amount. BTW I love this video, my extended family is huge but there's only two of us at my house. I just looked up the current amounts, so for 9 people half is $794. I'd even be willing to do the same and post it, half for my family would be $215.
I love your suggestions it would be interesting for me if you would do a low-carb version for two people I always struggle and want to have for dinner being low carb thanks for the consideration God bless
Hi Amy , I am from Malta ,I like to see your videos .I cook for my husband and my son at home but for my self I cook my own food as I am gluten free and dairy free.So it was a good video cooking for one person..I would like to see more videos like the one of today.l like too when you read from the Bible. God bless ,🌺🙂
Nice simple meals Amy :) VERY important scripture today! Thank you for sharing Amy..I love it, isn’t it funny..not haha funny, smile funny..lol Omgoodness..anyway, funny how the scriptures you read after your vlogs just kinda tell it like it is. Several I have listened to and they were spot on for this time in our lives. You know, the past is obviously behind us, and it has been told. Today, the word, even though nothing has changed through out the Bible..the Bible is and will remain the same “The Word” I mean. We have all been given chance after chance to listen and learn. To do our best to live in the word..One of these days we might just say to ourselves, I wish I had been a better person and walk in the way of the lord. He certainly doesn’t ask for perfection, he does want us to just do and be our best. That all. Amy, I’m thinking all this more so today because I’ve learned of some horrible crimes that have been committed. Unspeakable things! I will never ever figure out what goes through a persons mind, how people can do the things they do! Quite frankly, I would never want to know as I would probably have nightmares. Anyway, God tell us just like scripture here...After what I’ve learned these past few days, for the first time in my life I can honestly say, I’m not afraid anymore..heaven will be a welcoming place. It will be so nice to be in a perfect place with all the bad no more!! You know what I mean? Hey, I’m not saying I want to go ...oh heck no, I have a grand baby on the way!! So much to look forward to! ☺️👍 Ok, I’m outdahere!! I love ya Am’s! Stay well you and the fam!! Prayers always! xo
Mary I appreciate you sharing .i smile when i read one and it correlates with the day too.. our world is pretty messed up .i agree.but there is still plenty of light that can be shined.. congratulations on new grand baby!! Have a wonderful day ❣️ see ya tomorrow
@@amymaryon Thank you Amy, I’m so excited! I have a lot of girls, this will be my first Grandson :) Yes, your absolutely right...there IS plenty of light...and I promise, I don’t forget this. I should make that understood too. Thanks for reminding me because this is so important!! Speaking of another kind of light being shined, it’s 8 am and the sunshine this morning is a very warm welcome! 🌞YES, FINALLY!! :) I hope the sun shines by you too!! xoxo
Amy, I love this idea! Being older and caring for a hubby in stage 4 cancer I often find myself with little time to cook. He doesn’t eat much now on most days, so this is perfect. I would like to see more videos like this. Thank you for always finding a way to encourage others. God bless
Welcome..praying for you
New protocol 6 weeks 1 gram envelope 222mg) daily, then 3 days on 4 days off. This has saved 2 people I know personally.
Thank you so much for this. I am a widow living alone, and find I end up just eating junk, because I can't think of anything to eat. I would love to have more of this kind of meal prep.
Thank you ..I will do
Tip: You can put a small piece of paper towel at the top of each salad container. It will help soak up any moisture and keep your lettuce crisp longer. :) Also good to put a paper towel in the salad bag/box if you have any left over. Hope this helps someone!

Good morning Amy and family!! Thanks for meal prep and reading of scriptures. 🙌🏾❤️🌄
Love the meal plan I live alone so really helpful any dessert ideas for one
I love prepping ahead , if I had another big freezer I would be dangerous. Lol
I know how you feel!
I have been low key looking for a smaller chest freezer... Just to flash freeze batches to go into my standing freezer. 😂
I just can't thank you enough for this help with meals for one. I am 73 and live alone. I love having this ease and not having to do all the changes to meals to fit one and maybe a freeze meal too. Thank you so much Amy

Hi Amy, great content as always. We take leftover chili and I will make some spaghetti noodles and have chili topped spaghetti, you can top with cheese if you desire. It's cheap and uses up the leftover chili. God Bless you and your family.
Yes so good
Good evening Amy :) always trust in the Lord. Well done on preparing the requested meal plan. It's a difficult time adjusting to living alone, not being lonely but having the desire to cook a meal. I loved cooking and baking but struggle daily to find my way back to it. Blessings X
I hope it has helped 😊
@@amymaryon I'm sure it will be very useful Amy :)
Miss Amy thank you very much this helped me greatly. I did my house cleaning plan one year ago and works like a charm however I was stuck in the food area. I do greatly appreciate this and you. Thank you again Annie from Canada.
Welcome
I have been living with my niece and her family. About to move out and be on my own. I have been stressing over cooking for myself. This will help so much. Thank you!!!
Welcome. You are gonna do great
Good morning
Everyone , have a blessed day . Thank you Amy !
This was great and I appreciate that you were able to create a plan for a single that still felt like home cooking that would be done for a family. How about creating a plan that a person could make and meal-prep ahead for an elderly couple? When my mom was in the caregiver role she got so tired of cooking yet missed good old comfort foods. However... like many elderly, she and Dad were supposed to be eating low sodium and low fiber. She was very independent and didn't want a lot of help but it was nice to be able to send a few freezer meals her way. When it was just her she was dealing with loneliness, loss and her own health issues so I tried to make meals that would tempt her but not cause a problem with her diet. Now that is a big challenge. Maybe you could create a meal plan that would be a blessing to the elderly.
Amy I like the smaller meal plans. It's only me but great ideas I will use the meal plan. Thank you so much.🙏
Loooove love love these ideas do you have any series on getting extremely picky toddlers to try to eat anything my daughter is so hard to get to eat or even try anything she’s 3 and has always been hard to get to eat anything healthy thank you so much for the Bible readings I love having you read them you are such an amazing blessing!!!
I don't...I would just continue to try... eventually they have to eat..don't offer favorite snack after:). Usually they will just wait for that 😉
How about how you can portion out meals with different proteins (chicken, beef pot roast,pork roast)
Awesome idea! Also, I've been looking for your cinnamon muffin recipe with no luck
Cinnamon? I don't think i have one..I do pumpkin
Good morning Amy. This is fabulous for those days that your on a rush and need a lunch or breakfast out the door to school or work. Thanks for the advice on week plan meals so much easier plus we are saving money. God bless you and your family. Stay safe. Sending love from Puerto Rico 😘🇵🇷
I used to cook larger meals for YEARS and now its two people and I was stumped for a long time (Seriously who actually meal plans for 1-2 people?) used your large family meal Ideas (like the breakfast sandwiches and burritos) and broke them down to make smaller freezer meals, Dollar tree sells a three pack of Foil pans with paper lids for the freezer (then I found basically the same thing on Amazon plastic containers with lids that can be washed and reused). so I can still cook larger meals and break them down to 2 person sized. I consider your videos an Inspiration source. Thanks !
The plastic container are on her amazon list. I always use them. I use leftovers for so many things.
@@Barbaracoyle theses are the ones i referred to in the post ---- 50-Pack Meal Prep Plastic Microwavable Food Containers For Meal Prepping With Lids 28 oz. 1 Compartment Black Rectangular Reusable Storage Lunch Boxes - ---outstanding for meal prep and love that i can wash and reuse them and if some thing happens to it I can toss it out
I made your recipe for Mexican haystacks! Great hit with the family! Thank you🌻
Our favorite
I loved this ideas!! I can't wait for you to do more 😉😘
Hi Amy. I love all of your videos and always looking forward to the next one! 🥰😍🥰 Thank you for all the hard work that you put into them for us. I would love to see some “healthy” extreme budget meals for 2! This last year has been hard on us and I need some new ideas for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Thank you in advance for considering it. 😁🥰 The Lord bless you and yours.
Thanks for this idea
Thank you So Much
Canning and dehydrating seasonal foods would be awesome
I love what you read in Psalm. You remind me of my sister so much she was such a wonderful person and the best Godly person you would ever met. I miss her such cancer took her in 2014
I'm so sorry 😔
@@amymaryon That is so kind of you to say. Theses memories are great of her.
Thank You so much.
I love these kind of things! I feel like we get in such a slump! Feeding between 6-10 people on $100 a week!
Amy thank you for sharing this video as you do a two FreeMail love watching it love you all you all have a wonderful and blessed day
Have a wonderful day
love these! I have a family of 6! I would like to see meal prep lunch ideas
Thanks for the idea
Good morning Amy! I certainly appreciate today’s video as a single person. Learned a lot of tips and ideas.
Sometimes I donit know what I want but by planning ahead I have a great mix of foods rather cereal almost everyday, lol.
This was awesome and thank you very much.
Beautiful Psalm with a beautiful scene of nature at its best. You can feel God surrounding you.
Have a fantastic and.
Cereal is good 😊. Have a wonderful day
I loved the reading and ending of all the beauty.
Amy, you are such a blessing! I've saved so much watching your videos, not only money but food, we probably have cut back to less than a third of food that used to end up in the trash, I used to hide the food that I had to throw away deep in the trashcan, just so I couldn't see it! I have what might be a dumb question -
What brand or what store carries the burrito shell's that you often show, the large ones with the flaps that fold over on themselves?
Thank you ❣️
Great job planning and executing a simple but nutritious plan.
Definitely want to see MORE 1 Person meals and Extreme Budget meals
Hiya amy love love your videos hope your all well god bless you all abd thank you for doing this and can't wait to follow it xxx
I half your recipes and then freeze then in smaller 1-2 person size containers and freeze them. That means I don't have to stock my freezer for months.
What a blessing, Thankyou Amy ❤️
thank you for doing this, it is just me as well so this will help alot
You are welcome
Enjoyed this video. It’s just 2 of us. But we like to have a meat and 2 vegetables also. Can you do more videos showing meals because my husband doesn’t care for leftovers. It I make soup I have to freeze or give away because we don’t want all soups or casserole. Thanks for sharing!
I love all your videos. My problem is we (hubby and I) don't like taco or ranch flavor....we also don't like Mexican-style food. I'm always looking for recipes we can/will eat. Also, hubby is a diabetic, just another layer making it hard to find recipes.
Fish tacos/with lettuce leaves.and Crunchy cabbage. Rice cauliflower. Cut up fruit a head. Cut of vegs ahead..
Thank you for the video's i love your ideas!!
Good morning Amy! 🌞🤗
hi amy 😃 you are one special lady ... whoever gets the pleasure of knowing you in real life are very lucky ...these are awesome for people n im getting some great ideas 🌈❤️

Have a blessed day Mrs. Maryon.💐
Make ahead, bacon,sausage n can use as needed ,I do breakfast burritos with veg, n or english muffin egg,sausage sandwiches n freeze them, make a pan of lasagna n or chicken fettuccine white sauce n devide it up n freeze, chicken breast chop up, cook now or later ,freeze in single size ,add veggies n stir fry, get small loaf pans ,make little meatloafs , beef,bean,cheese burritos ,I freeze, almost any meal you can split up n freeze or prep. Oatmeal with fruit , pancakes n freeze, bake a bunch of potatoes n use as needed , sweet taters ,mash or cut up n bag up n freeze .
Right now I'm trying to spend only $50/wk for my family of 5. My kiddos are little and don't eat a ton, but I would love to have some more ideas.
Hi Amy, thanks for this I'm single too, and I love the look of some of these meal....Lol, you said tortillas correctly (torteeas) and then you changed it to tor-tillas! Wawahhhhh
I make normal size recipes and after i eat the meal I divide the rest up into individual portions and put in the freezer then take them out at a later date for a quick lunch or dinner saves so much time ans still delicious
Amy can u please tell me what editing software you use? Thank you!
Adobe :)
@@amymaryon Thank you Amy, but which Adobe program is it exactly? Adobe has quite a few.
Would you be able to do a meal ides/plan for breakfast and lunch for people with egg allergies
Thanks for this idea
I still think the big grocery haul on half of the maximum amount of food stamps for your size family would be a fun food video. If there's nine people at your house that eat and prepare food together that would be $688.50 for the entire month. Anything you buy at the store that's hot and ready to eat can't be bought on food stamps and certain energy drinks but you can get a rotisserie chicken, just has to be cold not hot. Exclude all non food items as well. Maybe a call to a local food pantry or a trip (not to get food) to see what they give out normally and how Covid has impacted the need for food.
Hmm there is an idea...can i ask just curious why half the amount? Just to see how frugal or do people get half the amount?
@@amymaryon The majority of people who receive food stamps don't get anywhere near the maximum amount so thrift becomes a necessity. The calculation is 30% of monthly household income should go toward food cost so it's deducted off the maximum benefit. The minimum benefit is about $27 a month so there's a huge gap between the minimum and the maximum. There's also no tax on food stamp groceries so that helps to stretch them further. Paper products, hygiene items, cleaning products, wouldn't count in the amount. BTW I love this video, my extended family is huge but there's only two of us at my house. I just looked up the current amounts, so for 9 people half is $794. I'd even be willing to do the same and post it, half for my family would be $215.
Ok i appreciate the feedback on this..I will do for sure
@@amymaryon Thanks. Keep those Psalms coming as well.
Good morning
I love your suggestions it would be interesting for me if you would do a low-carb version for two people I always struggle and want to have for dinner being low carb thanks for the consideration God bless
Ok thank you
Love this idea
Thank you for helping
So happy just got a gift from my fiance, my first deep freezer. Now Im experimenting, any advice on how to stalk & what to stalk?
Stalk? Stock?
@@amymaryon whoops stock! Lol 😆
LoL any of my freezer videos ..or any surplus of meats stock up when on sale
Hi Amy , I am from Malta ,I like to see your videos .I cook for my husband and my son at home but for my self I cook my own food as I am gluten free and dairy free.So it was a good video cooking for one person..I would like to see more videos like the one of today.l like too when you read from the Bible. God bless ,🌺🙂
Thank you for this
Nice simple meals Amy :)
VERY important scripture today! Thank you for sharing Amy..I love it, isn’t it funny..not haha funny, smile funny..lol Omgoodness..anyway, funny how the scriptures you read after your vlogs just kinda tell it like it is. Several I have listened to and they were spot on for this time in our lives.
You know, the past is obviously behind us, and it has been told. Today, the word, even though nothing has changed through out the Bible..the Bible is and will remain the same “The Word” I mean. We have all been given chance after chance to listen and learn. To do our best to live in the word..One of these days we might just say to ourselves, I wish I had been a better person and walk in the way of the lord. He certainly doesn’t ask for perfection, he does want us to just do and be our best. That all.
Amy, I’m thinking all this more so today because I’ve learned of some horrible crimes that have been committed. Unspeakable things! I will never ever figure out what goes through a persons mind, how people can do the things they do! Quite frankly, I would never want to know as I would probably have nightmares. Anyway, God tell us just like scripture here...After what I’ve learned these past few days, for the first time in my life I can honestly say, I’m not afraid anymore..heaven will be a welcoming place. It will be so nice to be in a perfect place with all the bad no more!! You know what I mean? Hey, I’m not saying I want to go ...oh heck no, I have a grand baby on the way!! So much to look forward to! ☺️👍
Ok, I’m outdahere!! I love ya Am’s! Stay well you and the fam!! Prayers always! xo
Mary I appreciate you sharing .i smile when i read one and it correlates with the day too.. our world is pretty messed up .i agree.but there is still plenty of light that can be shined.. congratulations on new grand baby!! Have a wonderful day ❣️ see ya tomorrow
@@amymaryon Thank you Amy, I’m so excited! I have a lot of girls, this will be my first Grandson :)
Yes, your absolutely right...there IS plenty of light...and I promise, I don’t forget this. I should make that understood too. Thanks for reminding me because this is so important!!
Speaking of another kind of light being shined, it’s 8 am and the sunshine this morning is a very warm welcome! 🌞YES, FINALLY!! :)
I hope the sun shines by you too!! xoxo
Woohoo yes sunshine and warm today...65;). What ?!?!
That was fun! Good challenge
