I cant stress this enough, just because you are eating healthy, doesnt mean you cant SEASON YOUR FOOD. Seasonings usually add minimal to no calories to your food
1) Someone might just not want their food seasoned, get off their case lol 2) you can make different sauces later instead of just one 3) he didn't season to not up the price
@@wailahmed9424 Yea Aldi and Lidl are most popular supermarkets in the UK. In fact they're both found in pretty much every European country. It's pretty rare to see them in the USA and North America in general.
@@VeteranR They are expanding in North America too now. Im in NYC, Lidl just opened up a location half a mile from me. The quality of products is meh but the prices for staples like meat, eggs, and dairy is unbeatable. I assume having to compete with Costco and Sam's Club is slowing down Aldi and Lidl though.
So just make soup or something. Or bibimbap. Poorer people with less have survived for centuries, and they didn't have the internet or cheap grocery stores selling products at dirt cheap prices. It's not that hard to make different types of budget foods.
Bro yes these are great until like the 4th day the chicken or whatever meat you use gets questionable😂 I found smaller amounts like 4-5 days worth is the sweet spot or big batches of stuff that lasts longer like the rice and vegetables, and then just make chicken every 4 days and you only have to cook the other stuff every 2-3 weeks
When Americans found the german/eu stores. Btw now do that for 4 people for a month and mix the food up a bit eating healthy is expensive if you don't wanna at least eat the same thing over and over.
It depends what you mean by healthy. It’s clean for sure, but there is no healthy fats there, fruits, nor a big enough diversity of nutrients. Not saying it’s wrong at all but to eat well and healthy it usually is expensive. For example having fish like salmon once a week, nuts and seeds, healthier low sugar options like yogurt, berries and healthier oils for cooking. health is far more than just chicken and rice 🙌
Aldi is just awesome. You can get so many things for like 3 pounds. My brothers personal favorite is the bakery section. You can get stuff for like 60 pence. There is lidl which i personally prefer
Thats good and all but you need to add salsa, if you got a moes near you can get it for free, if they ask say you had a mobile order and forgot the salsa

@@joshcreegan8816 we’re discussing extremes at that point. And meal prepping doesn’t take vast amounts of time and effort unless you want a large variety. If you have 2 jobs, I get it, but most people just don’t want to meal prep or cook regularly.
@@RavenSutcliffe you could go on, but the majority of the time, the main issue is not wanting to do it. Pricing is different, but if you keep it simple, it’s still cheaper than the junk and more nutritious. As far as food deserts, the definition is very broad. Would you disagree that it’s more common to not want to put the effort in than to not have the option?
Why are many here hyped up for Aldi? In Germany here are Aldi's in every corner and the do not deliver the 'good' food. There are definitely better shops, like 'Kaufland' etc.
You can do a variety of things with the same ingredients as well might get boring eating the same thing every day. You can make really good healthy chicken nuggets with ground chicken
Chicken is easier to make than mouse, racoon, and dog idk what you're trying to imply. If something is cheap it's probably made in mass, like chicken...
Good, but literally just go with white rice instead. It's typically cheaper and it's about 10x easier to digest and more bioavailable than brown. Brown rice is just white rice with the husk still attached
rice needs to be eaten or frozen at 2-3 days, you don’t mess with b. cereus. make smaller batches of rice if necessary. reheat with an ice cube if you have to use the microwave, as water can make it soggy. you can shred up the chicken and dice the veggies to make fried rice with egg and scallions too for daily finessing
I do this, fill up my freezer every two weeks. i dont go for the cheapest options but this saves me alot of money anyway. I do it because i do not have the time to cook everyday and refuse to eat unhealthy.
In no way does any of that look good. Unseasoned ground chicken, unseasoned white rice, unseasoned frozen veggies. All of that sounds disgusting, whoever considers plain ground meat and rice with mixed veggies a good meal is a psychopath. The only flavor you'll get from that is when you puke it back up
Maybe the recipe is not your type, but if you were in college and needed a cheap meal plan since college is so expensive nowadays, that isnt bad at all. And he never said you couldnt modify it or add seasoning. Youre just just putting negative comments on a video for absoloutely no reason. Just be positive, Im not judging or being rude to any of you. Dont be a pessimist.
What I got from this: sure you can eat healthy for cheap. It's just going to be extremely bland and missing other notes of flavor the body would crave. That's why people don't want to do it.
@@nhart6247 also marinating, one of the nicest dishes I've made was a chicken ceaser salad with the chicken breast marinaded in balsamic vinegar and lemon
A good way to save money is to buy whole chickens then break them down and freeze the parts you can easily get 5 meals out of one plus bones if you want to make stock
Exactly, and you can get even cheaper if youre getting most of your protein from powder anyway. I do a big batch of lentils in a slowcooker, and that stuff is like 50cNZD per 100grams, so I can feed the 3 people a lunch and diner worth of protein for a couple of days for pocket change.
Get some soy sauce, sugar and day old rice and make it a stir fry, or get some bell peppers and a can of tomato sauce and make it into stuffed peppers, or get some chicken broth and make the meat into meat balls for a soup. Same ingredients but some much better than just eating plain ground chicken and rice.
Some states and cities have varying prices but I guess I’ll check out my local ALDI. It’s just that when I go there on the blue moon, people look at me weird, like I don’t belong there 😂 I’m not “strange”, I think they just have more regular customers than some stores do and I’m not one of them.
Just...season that shit. Also...some variety would help. You can make chicken patties. The ground chicken can be incorporated into the rice to make like a fried rice, or you can do chicken meatballs and eat with whole grain pasta instead...you can season the chicken Thai style and do like a kra pao dish with basil (very easy) The veggies also need some flavoring... You don't have to eat boring to be healthy.
this is why i hate people who complain bout inflation but still buy name brand uneeded food and u could prob say still go cheaper if u buy bulk too but this is aite too
You can also make a big batch of Bolognese sauce, use it over rice, in a sandwich, on a spaghetti/penne, with a baked potato. That way you feel some variety throughout the week. Or same but with chile con carne sauce.
Aldis is good if you need a few items. But if your really trying to same some cash go to Sam's club or Costco. Instead of paying 200-400$ a week on groceries for a 8 person family. I now pay 400-600$ every 2 months. Literally saved me 1000s of dollars so far
