Lady. I want to say a huge thank you for these helpful ideas...I have had to live in a motel this past weekend and these simple food ideas came in so helpful
I am a party of one, 69 years old. I appreciate your dishes and helping us seniors to get by. I know I spend more than I should because I think I have to have ____. Whatever it might be for that day. We are blessed to have access to You Tube where you and others are helping us to stretch our dollars. My goal for this year was to reduce my food budget. I really enjoy trying so many different recipes.
Same. Just difference is I live on $1110 b4 any bills, food or rent, that is all I get monthly. Disability is tier 1. I turned 63 as of May 20 ty God woot! Lols! Canadian on Vancouver Island. I pay no hydro and gave a suite facing front, top floor of a really old house. View not far from waterfront ten minutes downhill to the ocean. I see ferries, ships, sailboats, yachts, and it cheers me up looking out my windows. Just my kitty n me. 🙋🏻♀️🌹💋🇨🇦💙💙💙💚💙💙💙Dawn
Sometimes these meals cooked on a tight budget turn out to be the favorites. My husband remembers eating tortillas with lard spread on them with a little sugar. He loved it!!
I like the toasted pasta 😋 it gives a slight nutty flavor and the pasta stays firmer . My neighbor gave me tomatilia (sp ? ) last year and i made green salsa with it . Your recipes look so good! Thank you. I want to make the potato tacos .
Toast the pasta, like you would rice? Your meatball and pasta soup looks AMAZING. All of the recipes look delicious but that one, I'm going to make soon! Maybe for Christmas 😊
There’s a restaurant here that every time I order nachos, the meat is made like this. It was always good, but I was confused at why it was like that. Now it makes sense! 😊
Make your own flavour without the chemicals of packets, or Sodium or MSG. 👍🇨🇦Cumin, hint of herbs you like, sesame oil or light soy ok instead of salts or spices. Cumin or Curry is good for you too. I have Fibromyalgia and it or Turmeric helps me with my inflammation.
Boils three tomatoes or burn them im a comal for more flavor, one fourth of an añitos three jalapeños, one garlic little spoon of salt blend it, then put a little oil in pan and your salsa wait 5 mnts and there you have your home made salsa for a week or two.
It's called toasting your pasta 😍. I just stumbled on to your channel and I am absolutely enjoying all of your content! You definitely have a new subscriber 😍!
I’m Mexican too and I always add veggies to my soup with meatballs i add Mexican squash, small pieces of potatoes, carrots and for the salsa I make it myself i toast three Tomatoes, a 4th of an anion, garlic. Tastes better if you make the salsa yourself at home
I heat my tortillas on the stove the same way. Or when I flip them on my comal I use my fingers also. And HEB is where it’s at. lol. Oh yeah the paper towel trick I do that too.Lol
Sauteing the pasta is a great idea. I wonder if that prevents the pasta from soaking up too much water too. I make a pasta e fagioli and the leftovers always soak up all the soup liquid too. I'm going to try the soup it looks delicious 😋
Just found your channel and I'm loving it. So ... brown the soup? We call that toasting. You toasted the pasta. We have several meanings for toast. English is a silly language haha
@mexicancookingwithgaby6589 You are not wrong however we brown meat, so its less confusing to say toast the pasta. Mostly because we don't typically toast pasta.
I have found that thru my experience of trying to be frugal and budgeting meals, Mexican meals by far work the best, at least for us. We love all the flavor of Mexican food and ingredients are simple and very inexpensive and I cook a large pot of Pinto beans at the beginning of the week and use them thru out in meals as a filler and stretcher so yummy
@@mexicancookingwithgaby6589 browned because you already did it. Past tense I guess you would tell people to brown them. Sorry! I guess I just confused you!
lol my husband always knows if the meal is meatless. He says “Add some meat and then I’ll eat it!” Lol. 😂 Not sure how I can get him to eat some of these but they look great to me. 👍🏻
Por menos de 2 dollares mas en el presupuesto podrias haber tenido los tacos de carne molida y las flautas con lechuga y agregarias fibra a la comida 😋
Maybe where you live. Not in BC Canada. Meat here costs $12.⁹⁹ for burger meats. No way her budget can be done. I watch for fun. But not her prices. Impossible even discounted it is not possible for me. Single person pension. I am frugal but no way. 🥴🙋🏻♀️🇨🇦I live on weiners or cheaper kippers, sardines, discount meat once a month. As in one day treat meal. This is American costs she uses and not saying where she is located I wonder how she has it so cheap.
I am so happy I found your channel! My husband was laid off yesterday. So now we are on a a very tight grocery budget. You are a lifesaver for me! 🌻🤎🌻🤎🌻🤎
No way those are crazy cheap girl. Clearly American pricing for Americans only. 😮Here on the Island? We buy onions, carrots that are priced loose pick always $2.⁹⁹. And up to $4.⁹⁹ a pound loose veg! Garlic cost me $7 just two clumps of about 10 garlic buds per clump. This is in Canada, BC on the Vancouver Island. Carrots, onion, (green onion? even is $1.⁹⁹ per bunch.) Never under $1.⁹⁹! That $10.⁸¹ total? Impossible here! Before Covid maybe I could have gotten half the food what you got at a local corner discount store nearby my house. But bag of 3 pound small only sized Spuds are $3.⁹⁹ alone. 😭🤦🏻♀️🇨🇦 I love tortillas! I make flat bread mostly daily. I use just microwaved squash, or sweet potato just that and flour. No milk, baking powder, salt, sugar! Nothing but say Curry or Cumin that I like. I live alone. 😂❤ Where are you located food so vost effective? The priced look to ve farmer market cuz no way cheap here like you have. Please let me know location roughly I am curious. Ty.❤
Last one was interesting...something a vegetarian/vegan would it. I think many Mexicans wouldn't consider it though 😊 Dorar - to brown yeah lol the intention is too lightly fry it so sautée?? I understood you!

As I've gotten older I no longer like tacos with the taco seasoning packet anymore Iike I used to
Thank you
Thank you so much for watching.
Make your own flavour without the chemicals of packets, or Sodium or MSG. 👍🇨🇦Cumin, hint of herbs you like, sesame oil or light soy ok instead of salts or spices. Cumin or Curry is good for you too. I have Fibromyalgia and it or Turmeric helps me with my inflammation.
