Why are your grocery haul and cleaning videos so relaxing to me, lol? I shop between Aldi, Trader Joe’s and Target. I find they have the best prices. Everything has gotten so expensive it’s insane. Loving the dark hair on you, looks great! Hope you’re feeling well. Have a great day and as always, sending all my best to you and your beautiful little family!
We like to make pizza on hamburger buns or hot dog buns . Put the buns in the oven for a few minutes take out add pizza sause cheese and what ever topping you want put back in oven few minutes. Kids can make their own.
sausage and bean smiley faces, 8-10 sausages chopped up and in the air fryer for 15 mins then add some a tin of beans and mix top with cheese and add smiley faces (option to add mixed herbs) air fryer for around 18 mina at 180 :)
Stuffed shells! They can also be really fun for kiddos to make with you. They are filling to and you can customize by adding meat, or keeping it plain cheese and sauce!
Some of my stable dinners that are always on rotation. Spaghetti with garlic bread, ground beef or turkey tacos with refried beans and Mexican rice(I make it myself but you can get the box rice one) , teriyaki chicken with broccoli and rice, any baked pasta with red sauce or Alfredo and a bunch of cheese with a salad. Philly cheesesteaks with the shaved beef. Burgers and fries. Those are a few of my easy go tos
Chomps is whole food approved!! They’re a bit pricey but in my opinion they’re worth it since like you said the other sticks do not make me feel well after eating them. All of the sodium and processed meat. It’s been super warm here in Indiana too!! I love the dark hair!!
Here are some dinners I’ve been making. I found out I have type 2 diabetes recently so I’ve been trying to do better with my diet. Bbq chicken wraps with purple onion (I use unsweetened primal bbq and add my own sweetener) on low carb tortillas with roasted sweet potato, this evening I made turkey meatloaf with a homemade sugar free glaze (my kids absolutely loved it!) and I just made mashed potatoes and green beans for the sides, I can’t eat it anymore but my kids are obsessed with beef n noodles or chicken n noodles with mashed potatoes and a vegetable, ground turkey taco salad, Mediterranean bowls (Panera bread copy cat) I use chopped spinach instead of arugula, one of those 90 second 7 grain pouches from aldi, topped with cut cherry or grape tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, olives, hummus, Greek yogurt, chicken (or chickpeas) and feta cheese - my kids LOVE this meal! I know it’s not for everyone, my kids love the fresh vegetables that’s why they love it so much, salmon with sweet potatoes or regular potatoes and broccoli, chickpea pasta with ground turkey and Raos with a green vegetable (and my kids get garlic bread with this), shrimp fajitas with Spanish rice for the side (another kid favorite), kabobs with baked potato
❤ Just picked up the chomps for my son who is a type 1 diabetic. I was looking for something that he could take out the house with him. I advocate for pre, type 1 or type 2 diabetics to always have food on them.❤
This is probably not an easy idea but making a bone broth in the instant pot and then just adding chopped veggies. Let the veggies cook in the bone broth until soft. You could also add cooked chicken. Make it a chicken soup.
Did you dye your hair black? I love it! 😍 also, enchiladas and chicken tacos (chicken from rotisserie chicken is easiest) are our staples! Chicken noodle casserole is 🤤🤤 chicken pot pie with canned chicken or rotisserie chicken is super easy too!
Hi Olivia! What about pasta? Like pasta bow ties with Alfredo sauce and white meat chicken and broccoli. Even spaghetti with meat sauce and garlic bread on the side. If the girls aren’t crazy about the meat, you could just use marinara. Have you made the girls tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwiches? It’s a good combo and pretty quick and easy. I still like that myself. And then there’s always breakfast for dinner. My kids used to love that. Just put the bacon in the oven and bake it while you make pancakes. I added mini chocolate chips to the pancakes and dusted them with powdered sugar. You could add some scrambled eggs if you wanted, but usually the kids are fine with pancakes and a couple slices of crispy bacon. And on the nights you’re really tired…my kids loved pizza rolls. And the 6 inche pizzas from Costco. They come in a box with an assortment of plain cheese and cheese and pepperoni. You can heat in the microwave. Smoothies as their drink is a great way to get some veggies and fruits in them that they’ll readily consume. Take care!!
@@OliviaRose3 it’s so hard to come up with new stuff. These dang kids wanna eat EVERY day. Lol. And I know exactly how you feel, you get into such a rut that nothing even sounds good.
Catalina chicken and shells and cheese. You will need light catalina dressing and chicken breast we cut it up cook meat and add the dressing and seamer the dressing and chicken and sides shells and cheese and green beans.
❤ Olivia did you color your hair and your eyebrows look really nice I’ve noticed your hair and I think it’s so beautiful. I love your channel I miss your kiddos. How is Graceland doing? You are so blessed with all your beautiful girls. I was watching an old RUclips video when you were at your sister Emma‘s dorm or her apartment. I think it was when Gracelan was just a baby and she threw a bowl of Cheerios all over the floor. lol 😂 I get a kick out of your sister Emma you guys are hilarious. Hope you have an amazing and blessed day. Love your sweet family.❤😊hugs❤
There’s this recipe I make called honey soy ginger chicken thighs (can substitute for legs) that I got from TikTok by a creator called Toni Chapman. I modify the recipe to suit mine and my family’s tastes but it’s always a hit and my family constantly asks me to make it for them. I season the chicken (skin-on, bone-in) with salt, pepper, lemon pepper (a good amount), enough paprika to give it some color, garlic powder, onion powder, and then add some oil. I don’t follow the recommended amounts because she uses way too much paprika and not enough of the other seasonings in my opinion. Then make on a baking sheet at 375° for about 45 mins (depends on the size). In a saucepan, I use 1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce (has to be reduced, regular is wayyy too salty), 1/2 cup of honey, 1/2 cup of orange juice, 1 tbsp of ground ginger powder, and as much minced garlic as you want. Let it simmer on the stove for like 10 mins, stir occasionally but make sure it doesn’t boil over (medium-low heat). It should thicken up as it cools. Once everything is done, baste or pour the sauce over the chicken and then broil for about 3 mins. I love this recipe because although it takes an hour technically, a lot of it is just in the oven and you don’t really have to do much. I pair it with white rice and broccoli. Hits every time. Added bonus that thighs and legs tend to be cheaper than breast (cries in rising chicken breast prices 😢).
it’s so funny to me that you’re addicted to hotdogs right now bc i went thru this spurt of always craving hotdogs / chili dogs etc! so random but yummy lol i think part of it is my body craving that bit of summer ya know with the cookouts and food from the grill. outside eating. family time bye seasonal depression!!
Maybe that’s what it is!! On a really warm nice day a few weeks ago we went to this local hotdog place & then the park and the vibes were immaculate so maybe that’s why I’m addicted to hotdogs… maybe it’s the vibes? 🤣
Meatball subs are super easy and my kids love them toasted with cheese its so good just meatballs and Marinara sauce thats it oh and ur choice of cheese
*this is not in a snarky tone* Why don’t you get things like water/ juice boxes, rice, bars, ETC. at Sam’s, Costco or BJs ? It will save you money and trips. I shop at Aldi as well for the smaller items. I’m just curious
I don’t want to make the drive (30 min) and we like the Aldi brand items… any time I’ve gotten diff brand items the kids don’t like it or eat it so it goes to waste. Aldi is also cheaper than sams/Costco for many items or not too much of a difference for me to buy the membership again/make the drive so it’s not worth it to me. For some items/ families it’s def worth it just not for us. ☺️
Wait what was wrong with your laundry detergent you were making? I’ve seen lots of people make detergent that way 😅. Is it because car seat warranty will void? Hope you’re feeling good after your surgery!
Nothing happened and I still use it you just have to use “free and clear” detergent for car seat covers or it will destroy them and they won’t be safe. Apparently the ingredients in mine aren’t safe for the car seat fabric which blows my mind so that’s why I got it lol
Yeah it’s def still cheaper than everywhere else but they’ve def raised their prices and or you get less amount of food now.. I noticed some bags are way smaller.

I always see that but I feel like it’s super time consuming stuffing them? 🤔 I’ve never tried it lol. Thank you!

Wow good food 😋 and good food 😋
Your hair looks great! The color and curls and ponytail look amazing on you.
Awh thank you!! I actually felt so ugly in this video so that makes me feel a lil better about my appearance haha 🫶🏻
@@OliviaRose3 you are beautiful never doubt that! 💙

I just wanted to add before someone comments about the potatoes and rice, my doctor, diabetic counselor and dietitian said to eat carbs lol
❤ Just picked up the chomps for my son who is a type 1 diabetic. I was looking for something that he could take out the house with him. I advocate for pre, type 1 or type 2 diabetics to always have food on them.❤
That’s awesome, good to hear!!

Andouille sausage sliced and sauteed with peppers and onions served over Knorr spanish rice

Also the homemade pizza kit from Walmart, throw some pepperoni with bacon bits or even the packaged ham cubes and it’s sooo good!
I love your grocery hauls
We are looking forward to trying the chomps. Oh and your hair looks nice 😊

Aldi is the best they did increase the prices
Meatball subs are super easy and my kids love them toasted with cheese its so good just meatballs and Marinara sauce thats it oh and ur choice of cheese
On subs bread like the one u got for hot dogs 🌭
We haven’t tried that with the kids yet, I’ll have to get that next week! Thanks ☺️
Chicken enchiladas are so good & easy!! Not sure if this is kid approved, but I think aldi has a Gyro kit and those are always soo good lol
I make enchiladas casserole often for them and they like it 😊 I’ll have to try that! I never have but always see it. Thank you
Aldi is definitely raising prices! Unfortunately 😭 literally last week eggs were $1.65 and this week they were $2.89 😳😭
I like Costco 🛒
I feel every place is raising and aldis as well.
Oh for sure! Aldi is just a little behind on it but they’re def catching up now 😭
What I have started doing recently is I cash out the exact amount I want to spend in store and leave my cards at home 😅
That’s also a good idea!!! I hate having cash though lol
Chicken salad or chicken Alfredo
Aldi is higher than Walmart now😮
Walmarts great value is not that good though in my opinion 😅 I don’t shop at Walmart much so I don’t know much about the price difference
*this is not in a snarky tone* Why don’t you get things like water/ juice boxes, rice, bars, ETC. at Sam’s, Costco or BJs ? It will save you money and trips. I shop at Aldi as well for the smaller items. I’m just curious
They also sell the beef sticks at Sam’s and Costco ! A bag of 28 for $14
I don’t want to make the drive (30 min) and we like the Aldi brand items… any time I’ve gotten diff brand items the kids don’t like it or eat it so it goes to waste.

Hi there. What kind of tooth paste do you use?

hiiiiii olivia❤
Hiii!
@@OliviaRose3 you're amazing
Hi. I was checking for an post op update….
Everywhere has definitely raised their prices. Aldi is still the cheapest for us
Yeah it’s def still cheaper than everywhere else but they’ve def raised their prices and or you get less amount of food now.. I noticed some bags are way smaller.
I live in Canada and this would of easily been around 260$ 😢
