You are one of the only channels like this that I go back and watch "reruns" 😂 enjoy just "hanging out" with you Mindy! Thanks for the time and effort you put into your channel!
These videos are such a great way to show people the reality of inflation. I’m down for more.
I just want you to know I love your talking!! I have 4 young kids, and lockdowns were challenging for me (like everyone else) and I got so much from your videos at that time.
It feels like you're a friend. ❤️
I’m so glad I could be helpful and “keep you company”. :) I remember the years with 3 little ones under 5. It is tough and can feel lonely. You’re not alone! :)
I really enjoyed the reboot of an old video. Kudos to you, it's hard to critique yourself with honesty and humor. Well done.
Great video Mindy, the most significant change I noticed was just your confidence . Either way, you were helpful, kind and real, the exact same way you are Today❤❤❤❤
Oh, thank you so much!
The Mac and cheese utensil debate is a on going debate in my house! My husband swears you eat with a spoon but I have always eaten it with a fork. Haha
I love your videos!
Yes, I like this format!
The cost comparison, especially at the same budget grocery store, is validating.
She's so close, let's get Mindy to 200K!
This is a good video! We have been doing a lot of this. Using tomato paste for tomato soup, tomato juice, chili, etc. Have cut up leftover hamburgers and turned them into tacos. This inflation teaches creativity. 2 tablespoons of flaxseed and is supposed to be equivalent to an egg for baking. Heard that on Joyfully Thriving channel.
This was a great video. I liked reviewing older videos and what you would do differently now. Great idea, do more!!
Fork or spoon depends on how much you want in a bite and are you in a hurry.😅
What is leftover hamburgers? I make 4 at a time. Dinner (he eats 2, I eat one. Both with tomatoes and lettuce. Cheese varies (today I used queso, last time was American). Then he gets one for the next days lunch. I cook something totally different the next day, then I make 4 more burgers with different stuff like bbq sauce and bacon then some veg on the side. Usually make burgers every other week, more often turkey than beef, but…I do put onions, peppers and occasionally chopped up carrots in the turkey. Again switching up the condiments and cheeses. A Hawaiian bbq is SO good on turkey burgers!
I am so glad you have streamlined your videos. I enjoy watching you and learning new ways to cook for my family.
That’s half again as much in only 2 1/2 years. That’s crazy that it jumped from $8 to $12! Food prices are crazy!
Corporate profits are at an all time high. Groceries, fuel, etc.
Look up inflation of food prices in 1973, 74 and 75. It was as high as 18%. I had children 6, 4, and 2. In the 70s we had the OPEC oil embargo and meat shortages. We lived through it. Yes, times are difficult but we’ll all manage. I’m
Amen! And they keep saying inflation is down! What a joke!
I’m a mom of 5. 2 are still home, but my sister and niece moved in back in December. So we are a family of 6. I love Mindy’s videos because they help when I need a few less expensive options to reduce the weekly cost. My sister is disabled (unable to help financially) so the food budget is being stretched tight. Thank you Mindy!!!!
@@amyh2100I was around 5 at the time and I remember it being tough!
I would love to see more videos like this!! I really need recipes for a low income single person. Thanks so much! I really love your videos. I've been watching you since 2020.
I thought you said 60 years old. Lol. I always look forward to your videos. They are so helpful.
I always like your one pan and budget meals. So helpful to add them to the rotation. Thanks so much. ❣️
Glad you like them!
I miss the shoes and fire place 🎉 Happy Birthday
When I was pregnant last year, I ate a ton of Perogis with a bit of butter and salt topped with cottage cheese, it was one of my third trimester cravings!
When I was pregnant very recently I loved eating cottage cheese on toast. The hot/cold combo is sooo good!
Oh goodness! Be proud of your work! Its what brought many of us in. We likes everything you did. ☺️
Thank you so much!
The glasses are all super cute. Am I the only person that questions magnets on my face?
I love the idea of using blended cottage cheese for the Mac and cheese. I currently have 3 containers from Ruby’s pantry to use up.
Question: do you keep plain bread crumbs as a pantry staple? If so, perhaps reserve just a bit of the cheddar, mix some of the bread crumbs with your homemade taco seasoning, put the mac and cheese in a casserole dish, top with reserved cheese and bread crumb mixture and bake. It might make for a nice twist on the recipe.
Congratulations early!! I love your videos!!! Prices are nuts and I cringe at checkout which is why I love online grocery shopping...I remove stuff last minute to stay in budget!
I watch reruns all the time from your channel , thank you Mindy!!
I loved the Uncle Buck clips! 😄
Where I live, these meals would be at least double in price. For example A pound of ground pork can be anywhere between $6-$9 depending on the grocery store now....a bag of mixed frozen veggies is about $4-$6 even a can of soup is around $3. I wish we had food prices like you do!!
Yes, I would like to see more videos like this one.
I used to love how your watch band matched your Dutch oven. I had forgotten all about that!
Me too!
I love the update videos. I also love that your videos have normal ingredients. That you can use in different dishes. No waste. Thank you!
Thank you so much 😊
I love these types of videos.
Mindy I love your channel so much. I started watching you several years ago when I found you for your ww videos. Your channel has grown and is so amazing! Congrats!
Thank you so much!!
I LOVE your budget meal ideas. They’re delicious and fast. Usually family/kid friendly. Thank you Mindi!! ❤❤❤
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
I really liked this video. I’ve been watching for many years and have always enjoyed your channel old or new. Thank you.
Thanks for sticking with me through the years!
Love this video idea!
Mindy, at 6 years old you're in First Grade.....lol. I adore your channel and your personality...."nuff said.
Actually, you’re at the end of kindergarten beginning first grade. A lot of children are already 6 years old going into first grade
Since I have a summer birthday, I was the same age for the entire school year. So you're right! I would be in 1st grade! :)
Love it 😊 And youre working those glasses🎉
Thank you!! 😁
Thanks for wonderful content! Look forward to your videos every week.
I liked this recap video. How fun to watch you watch you! comment and improve the original. We are all our own worst critic, but, I remember the original video and never mind listening to the chats. ❤
I love the Texas Rangers toppers 😊
Ok I want to see ya make an Uncle Buck pancake😏
haha!
Oh my!! What a “eye opening😲😲” video, Thank You Mindy for all your work for this and all of your videos. Knew prices were astounding but never would imagine $3 or more for 1 meal, my oh my!!! Hope you and all of yours are well. Take Care❤
Awesome thanks
Always love your videos! It was entertaining watching you critique yourself.
I joined your channel I believe around 2018. I have watched you grow your content, but the thing I love is that you’re still you. And although we don’t agree on college football, 😂, we can agree on the Rangers! Seriously, I adore your channel. I save the videos that I like to a playlist and after I watch the video, I listen to them at night as my white noise. That is meant as a compliment. I find the videos calming and informative.
Haha! Maybe we will get a Sooners/longhorns matchup in the college softball World Series championship!
Thanks for sticking with me all these years!
@@SeeMindyMomI've been around since the Weight Watcher days as well..
And I don't agree with Mindy on college football or MLB. 😂😂😂😂. Hook 'em Horns and Go 'Stros!
All about a spoon for mac and cheese because I like mine a little liquidy!
This was so fun! I remember watching that video when it first came out. The Mac and cheese being eaten with a fork vs spoon question is hilarious! Thats something that everyone in my family is very particular with too. I choose spoon (so does my son), my husband and middle child (daughter) choose fork and my oldest daughter seems indifferent. 😂 Thanks for another great meal idea! ❤
Apparently it’s a debate in a lot of households!
Love it!!
I love this style of video!
Hi Mindy it was nice to see the blast from the Past on some great budget meals that we can still use today especially with the prices of food today in 2024 so thanks so much for sharing 😊❤️👍
I love your video. It is really eye opening as to how much things have increased. I really do like it when you show how versatile ingredients can be and change it
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it. :)
Fork is the best way to eat mac and cheese. That way you leave extra goop in the bowl to mop up later with a piece of bread. It's cheese gravy!
Enjoyed!
Good video!!!
I would be hard pressed to serve 5 from ea of those meals....but they are something I would make..love me a 1 pot meal
Great video Mindy, I’ve been here since the long intro days. Love that you’re on a continuous improvement journey, me too.
And fork for the mac.
Thanks for sticking with me!
I've been watching you since 2020! Still love your channel!
Wow, thanks!
Good job!
love the new glasses on you 😊
Thank you!!
Fork usually because we use large elbows at home but if I'm at a restaurant and it's Kraft, I just use the spoon that came with it.
Loved this remake, with newer prices and changes very real. I would love more of these as I didnt do youtube until about 10 months ago. Thank you Mindy what you do is wonderful 😊
Thanks for watching!
I like the videos of the rerun/ redos bc with work I don't even get to see as many videos as before.
I always loved the chatting bc it's like hanging out with a friend :)
Glad you like them!
We love you Mindy 🥰
Thank you!
I always use a spoon. A fork is just wrong! Ha ha. I'm totally trying the mac and cheese recipe. Looks so yummy. Thanks!
Haha! I hadn’t thought of it that way, it kind of makes sense, even though I don’t follow that rule all the time myself!
Very interesting! Yes please do some more of these and of course the cook for a week. My dil and I need this So badly for the summer!!❤️❤️🙏🙏
I love these types of videos where you show swap out of some ingredients to show alternative meals. ❤
Thank you!
Spoon! My grandmother first fed it to me as a child and she used a spoon, so I still do! ❤❤
Loved the redo! 🎉
I'm fairly new to your channel but I've really been enjoying it. I've never thought about blending up cottage cheese and using it as a sauce and I can't wait to try it! That macaroni looks delicious! It might just be whats for dinner tonight! Thanks Mindy for your great ideas and I'm going to check out Pair for sure, I need new glasses and sunglasses that attach would be awesome! Have a great week! 💕
So glad you found me, thank you for watching!
I think my upbringing had me using a fork for everything except soup. I now use whatever serves me best now.
I play your videos so I can do the recipes it helps ( I mean over and over again )
Yes please! More do overs and the price comparison.
I have another one coming out Thursday. :)
@@SeeMindyMom yay! I can't wait.
I wasn't wanting to make anything with sausage today but my chicken is frozen so this might be my meal today. They need to do something about the price of groceries soon
Very good video. It is funny to go back and watch yourself. Isn't it.
for sure!
More recaps please😊
Do over was portion friendly for 5...both sounded really good
Loved this video. I am still trying to cut cost of recipes without sacrificing flavor
Love this style of video and all of those recipes.
Prices made me cry
I remember the shoes by the fireplace! I’d guess it would be hard to fit them in the same space. They grow so fast ❤
So true! The shoes are much bigger now!
First of all, love your channel and you. Also just want to mention you look terrific with your hair pulled back. You should wear it like that more often - looks so good on you!! Thanks for sharing all of your amazing ideas and info and be blessed my friend 🌸💚🌸💚🌸💚🌸
Oh thank you!
I just saw the pair founder on Shark Tank. Thought of you immediately when I saw them! And your meals look so delicious.
Hello Mindymom,i think it is always a great idea to go back and revisit recipes that have been submitted in a video. That way one can determine whether that recipe is still a great keeper in today's grocery expense. Also along one's journey we learn a thing or two and experiment with healthier options to make a new and improved dish. We have by now, i would think, gotten fluid with substitute foods to fill a gap for items that are not available. I know i have! Great review video and tidy up! Thanks.🎉
Excellent points, thank you! :)
I use a fork for the boxed mac n cheese, and a spoon for homemade (since there's usually a more substantial "sauce")!
I started putting cottage cheese in my pasta a few years ago because of your videos. Happy Birthday! 🎉🥳
Lol I thought you were going to ask if we eat baked or stove-style Mac n cheese, not fork or spoon.
“The Wanda” glasses look fabulous on you!
Thank you!
I rarely have Mac and Cheese but when I do, i use a fork. However, I feel that people should use the utensil that pleases them! Thank you for the video!
My husband says if food is served in a bowl, you should use a spoon. I don’t always agree.
My son is a spoon...like a shovel. I cant believe the inflation prices.
🇨🇦My grandkids and I eat macaroni with a fork b/c we can stick each tube on the fork tines for fun.I 🤭
Spoon. I put most meals in a bowl for better portions control, but I want to get every last morsel and a spoon glides around easier
More comparable videos please.
Please share your taco seasoning recipe. I've looked on your website but can't find it. Thank you!
Definitely eat it with a spoon
Always a fork for m&c
More recaps please.
Hey, I have a challenge for you... should you choose to accept it. 😅. My family dealing with some inconvenient food allergies. Can you make a somewhat budget friendly meal that omits the following: all tomato ( including paste, puree and powder), all legumes and lentils, potatoes and eggs. I swear my child has an allergy to the base ingredients for every inexpensive meal! 😅
Have you tried using chatGPT to meal plan? You can ask it to give you recipes that exclude the ingredients you don’t want.
Fork
I’m eating cottage cheese on top of my vegetable stew right now. I love soup with cottage cheese.
Oh that's interesting! I haven't tried that yet, I may need to. :)
spoon!
Definitely a spoon!
cool
Dint knock your talking! We were in quarantine and we needed to hear humans talk!😂
It is scary how much food has increased in 2 1/2 years.
