I would LOVE to see a cost comparison where you buy only name brand items for a "budget friendly" challenge like this and then buy all store brand to really show just how much you can save by buying storebrand instead. Even if you save 4 or 5 dollars on 4 meals, thats a large savings over the course of a month.
And if you look into the store brands and who makes them a lot of times it’s made by name brands anyway. Like some Costco coffee is roaster by Starbucks. Their dog food is made by Diamond. Their tuna comes from Bumblebee and so on. There really isn’t much reason to buy name brands
Great idea
My Walmart puts their cold rotisserie chicken on sale for under $5 sometimes it’s $3.80, for a whole chicken,I buy 3-4 and freeze them!
I buy a few at a time at Costco for 4.99 each, shred them and store in 1 pound packs to use in lots of dishes.
Where do they put the cold rotisserie chickens?
@@Kristemamber81Over in the deli, where you see the potato salad and macaroni salad, you will find cold rotisserie chickens there on the bottom shelf. That's where they are in my store anyway. 😊
@SMM I live in Southern California and citrus trees grow easily here. I have a lemon and an orange tree and one time my neighbor called to ask if she could bring her relatives from Kansas over to look at them. They marveled and took pictures and it was super charming and then I realized if I was in Kansas I’m pretty sure I’d want to stand out in a corn or bean field and get my picture taken. ☺️
haha! That's too funny! Yes, I actually mentioned that because my SiL lives in the bay area and the have multiple fruit trees (including lemon) in their backyard and she uses them all the time in her cooking!
I wish i had planted some 15 years ago when I moved to San Diego County. :( I love Meyer lemons.
Im going to resign from my job at the end of the year to be a stay at home mom. Really appreciate these videos, since I'll be watching the budget a bit more!❤
Awesome mom is the most important job you will ever have
Powerful. I want to but cant
In my area, I've found that buying frozen veggies is much more affordable than buying canned or fresh produce. We don't have any Aldi or big discount grocery stores here. So I almost always buy the store brands of everything if there's that option. My hubby is a meat n potatoes man but with these crazy prices since the pandemic, he's really starting to enjoy the meatless meals I make a couple times each week. I'm so happy to see you incorporate leftovers into a new meal. That's how I was raised and so many folks nowadays don't do that. It's a great way to stretch the food budget.
Rotisserie chicken would work very well in this meal plan and possibly be even less expensive than a raw whole chicken and still give you the bones to make broth. Where I live I have seen Rotisserie chicken on clearance at Walmart for under $3.00 for the whole cooked chicken. Just a thought.
To make tostadas super easy-
Spray some olive oil on each side of the tortilla and bake it in the oven 400 And flip it half way through. You can do so many at a time. I think it’s easier and they’re all done and warm at same time. Plus I don’t have to clean up oil splatters!
Great tip! So true!
Plus using less oil. Thanks for the tip !
Love this thank you! We are tight this week and I realized I have all these ingredients on hand, even the stroganoff! We can get through the week and I don’t have to stress.
Mom of 5 here-four still at home!! Mindy- I love that your kids have a healthy appetite ❤ 2 of mine are severe/sensory picky eaters and will flat out starve before they try even average kid meals. BUT!! I am here to try your challenge on this one-sounds like fun to me. I bought bigger portions and spent $25.48 at Wakmart. I’ll come back and comment what everyone thought. Thank you!!
How did it go?
Yes, how did it go?
My kids said it was alright-which I thought was pretty spectacular because even the most kid friendly foods they don’t want and think are “disgusting”. So my kids eat “alright” foods then I’m calling it a win!
Buying that tiny milk is DEDICATION! Thank you!
haha! I thought so...I tried to keep to the challenge outside of spices and oil. :)
I would’ve filmed that tiny milk and then used a gallon from my fridge. Or powdered milk because I use it in bread.
Mindy, I believe you are nothing shy of a genius in the kitchen. Thank you SO much for taking the time to do the planning of such meals as these. I'm 50, yet I have zero imagination when it comes to being creative in the kitchen. Your awesome budget meals are just that...awesome. Thanks for taking the time to make your videos. You are doing such a great service to people like me. ❤ from SC.
Those canned biscuits make great dumplings. Squash them a bit, dust in flour and drop in boiling broth.
Good tip!
If you have an air fryer, roasted carrots are SOOOOOOOOOO good. Peel and chop, toss in oil salt and seasonings ie: pepper, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder etc. air fry for 8-10 minutes on 375 and they are so delicious
The most economical way that I have found to get shredded chicken, is to buy rotisserie chicken at Costco. I bring it home and shredded into Ziploc bags and put it in my freezer. I can usually get two Ziploc bags at one pound bags of meat each out of a single rotisserie chicken from Costco.
Thank you for continuing to share these budget meals. They're greatly appreciated
Thanks for watching!
@@SeeMindyMom you're so very welcome, sweet friend. Hope you're doing well this lovely Wednesday.
I love that you can just waltz into a supermarket and buy 100% corn tortillas - the dream!
I have been searching for actual budget friendly meals that my kids and husband will actually eat for far too long. So happy I found your channel!!!
Good job showing us it is very possible to survive this recession. Here I am in Africa being inspired. Well done Mindy
Thank you for the kind words. Best to you and yours.
I like to spread the sour cream on the tortilla like you would mayo on bread. That way each bite has some in it😊
Your cook once eat twice videos are my FAV!!! When you cook a protein and show ideas on how to spread it out over multiple meals.... THE BEST! Wouldn't mind a video like this using every protein 😁
Great ideas. I often get shelf stable milk at Dollar Tree for $1.25 to cook with
Great use of $20. In the last 8 years, I have rarely used my crockpot. I’m a fan of the Instant Pot. Love it especially for any kind of bean.
Most instantpots have a crockpot feature. Look at your buttons/guide. You are welcome
Since the Pink Beans were on clearance and are often used in refried beans,which is a regular or frequent ingredient for you I would have stocked up on 5-10 bags . Because, at that price you will save a goid ampunt of money having them in hand.
I do really appreciate that you include veggies in your meals.
Dominion is a family favorite over here. But yes it is totally a nerd game
Now I need to add tostados to next weeks menu. They look amazing! Once I turned home canned pinto beans into refried beans out of necessity but now I do it intentionally because it’s the best I’ve ever had!
So jealous of your egg prices! Ours are at $3.78/dozen at Walmart (Ontario, Canada). Hopefully they will follow suit and come back down at bit!
Love all the inexpensive meal ideas for the family! Keeping it simple yet filling. We love the game Dominion. I'm usually the reigning champion in our house!
Yum! Thanks Mindy ❤️
Congrats from Arizona! One or two suggestions regarding the corn tortillas. Roll them up into taquitos with a variety of fillings. Mashed potatoes, well seasoned, diced chicken mixed with the refried beans, or just chicken itself! Corn tortillas are a lifesaver for budgets. ❤
Dominion is a great deck building game. But it is borderline nerdy. 🤣
Hello, I’m Jessica. I’ve been told all my life that if you rinse your beans with cold or lukewarm water after boiling them or soaking them that it makes it harder to cook them or make it difficult to cook them like it can take up to a day for them to work throughly. I’m Mexican do my whole family has always told me that .
It all looks delicious!
Wonderful!
Love your videos. Great ideas.
Wow! Great meals!
You are brilliant with your ideas!!!
Love your videos, Mindy!
Love this! ❤
Thanks!
Love these ideas, thankyou.
Wow, you did it!! These are great ideas & a nice variety too, well done, Mindy!
Great ideas for a fantastic price!
Now I want to watch the "Princess Bride"
😂❤
Hey thank you! I was walking through target and I’d realized that we were eating for about $50 a day on average. I’m at a loss on what to do. I’m bringing that down to 20 a day and these meals are really a good guide to follow. Thank you!
Nicely done! Thanks.
Great job!!! This was so impressive to watch!
You are so clever coming up with meals to stretch a budget. These times are hard so I appreciate this very much. We’re ok right now, but you never know what could happen and these ideas are wonderful.
Another great list!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love these ideals ❤
Glad you like them!
Corn starch and milk is genius
These are amazing ideas (as always!) 🎉 the type of tongs lifting the tortillas may leave a plasticity sort of taste for some , so definitely worth using metal or wooden types :) now all I got to do is convince my family stroganoff is on the menu this week
Loving The Princess Bride clips! And I always love the budget meal videos
Everything looks delicious
Your budget meals always amaze me!❤
Thank you!! 😊
Such a sweet daughter!!
Thanks for the ideas. I will be trying these.
My pleasure. I hope you enjoy them.

I appreciate the time it takes to create the meal plans and break it al down. Very creative!!! Keep doing what you're doing!!! 😊
Everthing looked delicious!
You killed it. This was really good.
Thank you so much! It's always a bit of a critical thinking exercise when I put these menus together!
Always enjoy your videos. Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words!
cool suggestions especially I like the taking the corn tortillas and making your own "tostadas" I bought a pack last week.🙃
Great use of ingredients!
Thank you! I try to be creative fitting all the pieces together. :)

Hello. I’m new to your channel and I Love all of your budget meals. So helpful when meal planning.
You make budget meals I can get excited to try. Thank you for your great content!
You're a great teacher !
Thank you! 😃
my significant other is Asian and he suggested I get a rice cooker, and the brand...oh my gosh I am so glad I got one, the best for cooking rice(especially since I make a lot of Asian recipes now)...plus it can be used for other things as well...one of the things I have ever purchased especially since I use it all the time
I feel like you're the mom I wish I had to learn from!! Thank you.
Good video!
Thanks!
So much for another great video and some great information and thanks so much for sharing all your experience in the kitchen
Inconceivable!
Love seeing the family so beautiful. Your meals are amazing. You are just such a inspiration. God bless you and your family❤
More great ideas for inexpensive meals! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you! Love your ideas and channel! These are skills like my grandma used that people who grew up in a time of abundance may not have learned. You really plan how to use each item to its fullest and not waste.
Mindy , GREAT JOB on the biscuits.... ima try that
I just wanted to say Thank-you for all your help with meal planning 😊. And I'm going to say that your family are very friendly as well. 😊
Great job
Thanks!
@@SeeMindyMom I have been meaning to tell you a tip about cold brew. I visit my son in Chicago for a couple of weeks every 3 months. We usually get a cold brew. I don’t like cinnamon. So my son had asked if you leave cinnamon out where does the flavor come from? Brown Sugar simple syrup. I ordered some condiment bottles and made some. It’s a game changer! Enjoy and share if you like❤️
Thanks Mindy! EVERYTHING looked delicious!!! Loved the tostada with refried beans , chicken, etc. idea!! God bless!!
Thank you and likewise! :)
I loved this video! I sent my hubby to the store with the list from this video, and I’m trying it out this week 😊
Hope you like it!
The Princess Bride clips were perfect!
Thank you! I have a great editor who helps me
Those chicken and noodles look so delicious. And it’s so inexpensive ❤

We love games, but we haven’t played that before, I’ll definitely pick it up. Thanks for sharing!
Loving all the new videos, I have shared your channel with our DIL, it will be a game changer for their budget. Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing!! I appreciate the kind words, too!
I love your Videos but I am always shocked by prices in the US… Eggs cost 3-4 times as much in stores in my region…
Even though not everything is the same here, I love your meal ideas, makes me feel inspired 🤗
All the best from Austria 🇦🇹
Great video, thank you!! I like to do my refried beans in the instant pot to save some time.
Yes it is possible! ❤xxx
The Princess Bride is a classic. Love that movie!
I enjoy playing Dominion!
Mindy, I absolutely love you! Such a beautiful lady inside and out, and I love your mission and recipes! My favorite budget meal youtubers by far. God bless you!
That biscuit upgrade though 🎉
Dominion is a family favorite! ❤
would LOVE, LOVE, to see some Low Calorie budget friendly meals. Love watching your videos!!
