My sweet recipe angel!! What a fantastic video!! You have no idea how helpful you are to many ,many families struggling to feed budget friendly /tasty meals!! Thank you for a job well done. 😇 Your kindness and talent are very helpful to many . I really enjoy watching Thank you for all you do. 💝
Hi Julia!!! All your recipes look mighty delicious. I like all your ideas. I will be making a few of these for sure. Cute pic of your daughter. Take Care...Great Video!!!...🦋
Gosh Julia, what a wonderful blessing you are giving to thousands of people to feed themselves on a very low budget during these very stressed financial times! Thank you so much❣️👍✝️🙏🌍🌎🌏
Thank you so very much! That means a lot to me to hear that and I do hope that that is true. It’s so difficult when you’re struggling financially. Thank you so much for your positive comment😊
@@JuliaPacheco Of course this is true! You have a gift of making healthy tasty recipes with very low budget food. Sharing this with all of us gives us some peace and confidence to shop and cook for our families. This relieves a lot of stress❣️👍
@@JuliaPacheco I appreciate the budget meals and I live alone but I don’t think eggs 🥚 come in “ many” different colors there’s only two white or brown . And also sometimes you use seasonings that I don’t use for example cumin or rosemary or even basic salt because I have high blood pressure so I don’t use salt I usually just use garlic powder and pepper and Italian seasoning but I do like 👍 the budget meals !
That frozen "seasoning blend" of chopped onions peppers (and celery?) is going to be a lifesaver! I have disabilities that keep me from going to the store in person so these videos really help me find new and good products to look for online.
I use that seasoning blend all the time. I usually add extra celery or celery seed because I just love celery the best in soups & stews, but it's fine without them.
I’m so happy to hear that that idea will help you. And yes, hopefully purchasing a frozen medley like that of vegetables will help you in the kitchen too. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a wonderful day💜
Sweet Julia, I've never made a comment, but always watch your videos and even purchased one of your books! Even though I've been cooking since a child (and you could even be a child of mine), I wanted to give you some much deserved compliments. Firstly, your editing of your shows are just fabulous. They go quickly as I love how things just quickly go to "chopped " or whatever the process, it keeps it fun and interesting. I no longer have the need to feed a family, but all can be reheated. Not enough people stop to think or remember what it's like to run a home, raise children AND put a nice, healthy and enjoyable dinner together. Kudos to all you mothers of the young who seem to be returning to focusing on your families. I truly hope it IS a change, for none of you will EVER regret it later. Family dinners are priceless, no matter what you're serving, but thank you for encouraging your generation. God bless!
Oh my goodness! Thank you so very much for that wonderful shout out to me and offering that great support to all of my viewers. The most important change we can make is in our homes. I really do agree with that! And thank you so very much for your wonderful feedback. I sure do appreciate you sharing it here and for your loyal support along the way, Jules💜💜💜
Not only are your meals quick and easy. They also taste yummy. One of the things I like most about your videos is we don’t have to watch you cutting up vegetables. Thank you for sharing. ❤😊
I really do appreciate that positive feedback! That definitely helps. I can’t stand that either! Thank you so much for your support here and I hope you enjoy some of these meals🙌🏼🙌🏼
Funny story. I had to go to the hospital a few days and my husband Pete was like where is her cookbooks. Got on line found you and made a couple meals. They turned out great he said. He was like she needs to make cookbooks for us guys when we have to be bachelor's for a time. And now you have books people buy them she's a gold mine of knowledge. Thank you so much Julia. My whole family is into you now
Thank you so very much for sharing that, Angela! I’m so sorry to hear that you had to go to the hospital though. I hope everything is OK. I think my cookbook is pretty easy to follow and has great pictures too if he is interested. Ha ha! Thank you so much again for your great support here😊
A friend needed groceries and we don't have a lot of money either and I honestly didnt know what to buy but thanks to your video I shopped this and sent her the video.
Julia, I have a challenge for you. I live in Florida and we prep for Hurricane season, which is from June 1-November 30 each year. We prep the best we can with lots of pantry staples, but would you consider doing a meal prep or power outage/pantry meals prep for Hurricane Season or tornado power outages. Things you can make on your grill or your camping stove. Thank you for your consideration. Yoncee
I agree with you even though not in Fl! We get ice storms, tornadoes, and straight-line winds that create power outages. This would be a great video to see!
I just discovered you. And what a wonderful way to feed your family. However I am an elderly lady living by myself and this would last me forever. For only $20. As I could freeze it or have company I guess. Thank you for all your wonderful ideas I'm going to look at some others you have produced also . The wonderful part of your video is how you provide a recipes and meal plans thank you so much
Wish Julia and RUclips were around 25 years ago when I was living by myself in my first apartment. I could have eaten better for less. I spent $25-35 a week back then just for me and I survived on pasta, jared spaghetti sauce, bagged salads, frozen burritos, frozen individual pizzas with a crap ton of sodium, Spanish rice kits, and Smart Ones individual frozen meals. I also ate out a lot with friends and co-workers.
Thank you so very much for joining me, Judie! I am so very happy to have you here. I’m so happy to hear that you’ll be able to use these recipes and freeze what you cannot eat for later! That is wonderful. Welcome to my RUclips family💜💜💜
I have really bad depression and ADHD and going grocery shopping and preparing meals just feel so overwhelming. You have no idea how helpful this is. Thank you so, so much. I hope you make more videos like this 💗
I’m so very sorry to hear about your health issues. That must be very difficult for you I am sure. I’m happy though to hear that my videos have helped in someway. I hope you enjoy and thank you so very much for watching😊
You're a godsend. Even in Europe. I might not have the same products available, but most are substitutable, and the basic principles apply just the same. Thank you so much for your efforts, I really appreciate it. ♥🌼
Thank you so very much, Vianne. I’m happy to hear that you will. be able to make the substitutions for foods that you can in Europe. I appreciate your positive feedback and I hope you enjoy them. Thank you so very much for being here💜
I am so very happy to hear that you and your family have enjoyed my recipes so much, Patrice. Thank you so very much! Your support here every week means so much to me💜💜
Wow! You have the best recipes for such minimal cost, less time in the kitchen and more time can be spent with our family! Thanks Julia! Macie is so precious and growing up so fast! Have a blessed week! 💕
Thank you so much! You are the best. I appreciate your positive feedback and that is exactly right, more time with the family less time getting hot in the kitchen🙌🏼 thanks so much for your kind words about our a little Macie💜💜
Happy Sunday, Julia! Thank you for another set of budget-friendly recipes to help us get through these rough times! You are such a great teacher and so thoughtful of everyone's different needs! You are amazing!!! And HOW CUTE is Macie with her goggles! Your girls are so adorable! Have a wonderful and blessed week ahead! 😃❤
Very happy Sunday to you too, Laura! You are so very welcome and I really do hope you can use these recipes. I appreciate your positive feedback and I’m so happy to hear you’re enjoying my meals. And yes! She is a hoot right now! Ha ha. Thank you so much💜💜💜
I just love your videos. Although I am a social security senior, I find your meals helpful in planning g meals for my husband and me. I cannot afford your cookbooks, but I take notes and do my best to recreate your delicious recipes. God bless you and your young family.
You are the sweetest ever, Nancy. Thank you so very much for your great support and positive comment here. I’m so happy that you are able to use my recipes. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your weekend my friend💜💜💜
I just want to say, I'm continually impressed with how much you do for your viewers! The meal plans are such a great idea and so helpful and I know that's extra work for you. I'm still really loving your recipe ideas! Thank you so much for all you do.
I really am so very happy to hear that, Becky. Thanks so much for your positive feedback about my meal plans. I sure do appreciate your wonderful compliment! You are the best! Thank you so much again and I hope you enjoy some of these meals💜💜
Well thank you so very much! I appreciate your positive feedback and I’m so happy to have you here. Have a great week and I hope you enjoy some of these meals💜💜
We do fried rice in my at least once a week. With my kids getting out of school for the summer. It’s a go to meal for my family. All your meals look so delicious.
We find you to be a very kind and generous young woman. With your hard work you give hope to those who are struggling to feed themselves and their famlies during these very difficult times. Your meals look healthy also. Bravo young lady! You should be very proud of yourself as you are making a difference in peoples lives. Keep up the good work! G.B.!
Thank you so very much. Your positive support means the world to me! I sure do appreciate your kind words and I do hope that I can help people. Thank you so much again for Sharing your positive feedback and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week💜
I'm always so impressed at how well thought out each purchased item is so there is no waste. I love the simplicity of the meals that include vegetables for well balanced nutrition. You make it all so easy to follow. I honestly appreciate how this knowledge also includes watching a budget. I give this a 10/10!! Thank you
Wow! Thank you so very much. You are so awesome and I appreciate that positive feedback so very much. I hope you enjoy some of these meals and thank you so very much again for that wonderful compliment😊
Hello. I love your channel. I am in a dorm room and would love meal ideas. I have access to a kitchen with a fridge but no freezer. Maybe prep meals ideas for the week that can help out college students.
Thank you so very much. I’m so happy to have you here. One idea is doing sheet pan meals once a week and refrigerating them for the week. You can find them here on my RUclips channel or Google my name, Julia Pacheco sheet pan meals and they will pop up for you there. Crockpot recipes are also great. They have a real small crockpot too. You can go to my Amazon store my description box and find the ones that I use there. I sure hope this helps and thank you so very much for your great support, Sonya💜💜
I don't think I've bought a name brand item in 20 yrs with a few minor exceptions. For the most part, they're exactly the same and 50-70% less. I just couldn't bring myself to waste money on name brands anymore
But,people don’t realize the same manufacturers that make these brand name products make the generic products, the manufacturers that make them of course varies depending on what the products or items are. That’s like yrs ago in Kentucky, I had family members that went over there who worked over at a pizza manufacturing plant, the thing was they were making the same pizza products and,then, just putting different brand name packaging. And, unfortunately that were factories that were put up too quickly and, within under 3 yrs they shut them down!
@@sonyafox3271 Sometimes the items are the same and sometimes they aren't. You have to try them to find out. Some generic laundry detergents and shampoos were just watered down so you had to use a lot more. Some items are exactly the same, particularly canned fruit and vegetables.
Yes! A lot of people think brown eggs are healthier. The shell color doesn’t reflect nutrients inside at all. Brown or black feathered hens typically lay brown eggs in a variety of colors. White feathered hens lay white eggs. They can all be eating the same diet on the same farm so they would be the same inside. Some breeds lay blue or green shelled eggs but you don’t typically see those in the grocery store
Oh my goodness, that precious angel with those goggles❣️❣️ These are great, Julia. So many of us need these now more than ever. Saving this video like a bunch of your others🙏
This is so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to put these meals together! And please tell baby that she looks AMAZING in her goggles!! Sending love from my family to yours!
I love that your meals are not only easy and inexpensive but they are nutritious and you use plenty of vegetables. You show that you can eat nutritious meals on a tight budget.
Well thank you so much for that positive comment. I appreciate that! And yes, frozen vegetables can go along way and obviously have such a great shelflife. Thank you so much again and I hope you enjoy some of these ideas💜💜
I say it every time you share one of these videos, but I have to say it again - THANK YOU so much for sharing these awesome meals that are healthy, flavorful, and affordable. You're budget meals over the last couple of years have been the reason we get to eat most weeks. I'm so glad I found your channel every time I see a new video!
Thank you so much, Emily! I really am so happy to hear that my budget meals have helped you and your family so much. I’m glad everybody enjoys my meals and hopefully have helped you out financially too. Have a great rest of your week and thanks so much for your support💜💜
Happy Memorial Day weekend, Julia! I have tried several of your extreme budget meals because they always look delicious. It is amazing how good inexpensive meals can be with the right spices and seasonings. Thank you.
This is so true! The spices make it extra good. Thank you so very much for your loyal support every week and I hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday weekend💜💜
Thank you. I got layed off and thankful found a new job but it pays way less so I’m helpful for suggestions. I was use to shopping at Sprouts and I have readjust my shopping habits. Thank you so much
That is definitely super tough. Especially when you’re used to shopping at a store that has such fresh produce and other food items. I do hope that these ideas help you and thank you so very much for your positive comment😊
You always amazes me my dear friend. All these recipes look delicious. You will never know what a blessing you are to all who watch your videos sweetie .May God bless y'all sweet friend 🙏 👵
Thank you so very much sweet Linda. You are always so very kind to me and I appreciate your great support here. I sure hope I get to meet some of you guys someday. You’re awesome💜💜
I can’t tell you how much your videos have helped me! My husband is disabled so we live on his SSDI and I am a nursing student, so the budget is tight. It’s even tighter now that we have a 2 year old. You are giving me so many good ideas to stretch the budget. Thank you ❤️
I’m so very happy to hear that my recipes have helped you, Corinna. Good for you going to nursing school and being a mom at the same time. I’m sure that is very challenging! In the end, it will definitely be worth it. I’m happy to hear that these ideas help you and your family in your current situation💜🙏
🌻🌻🌻🌻Julia, Thank You so much for the Free Budget Meal Plan. These meals, as all of your recipes, look delicious and easy to make. God bless you and your family 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
What I like about julia is she strives to include vegetables and protein as much as possible. It's still very light on protein though, so if you are any kind of athlete or gym-goer just add 2 WPI shakes per day (cost effective per gram of protein!) and bulk up the meals with white rice
👍🏼Give this lil' mama a LIKE👍🏼 Way to go, Julia! Very nice... Thank you, have a blessed day and everyone seeing this please take a moment to remember those who gave their all and the loved ones left behind tomorrow! xoxo
Thank you so very much for that wonderful shout out for memorial day, Aimee. I sure do appreciate that! And I sure do appreciate your great support here every week. You are the best! Hope you enjoy some of these recipes💜💜
Thank you Julia, the frozen celery, onion, bell pepper and parsley is a game changer for me too. Will use in many recipes. Gotta love Walmart! Have never seen that at my local grocery store. Enjoy the week!😊❤
Sometimes, I think we confuse the terms " meals, servings, portions". * Meals to me Ingredients which when put together are intended to be eaten at a certain time of day. Example : I cook Pork Chops, Mashed Potatos, Green Beans, Applesauce and make a Salad. It is intended for dinner so I consider it a meal. * Serving to me When my mother in law places a scoop of Mashed Potatos on my plate - that is a serving. It is what is designated to feed a person. * Portion to me This is when I place a definite amount of food say, 1/4 cup of those Mashed Potatos and 1/2 cup on my son's plate. I " portion" the food by the # of people eating what I prepared. ❤ I love your videos because they inspire me to be creative and to think.
More magic in the kitchen dear Julia! These are wonderful budget-stretching recipes for someone on a fixed income. Also, your smile and sunny attitude are very endearing. I hope you have a wonderful week.
I think this video is my favorite of your budget meals. Protein and veggies in all meals. Unfortunately though this is a normal budget for me. As a disabled senior on a low fixed income I love your budget meals and have saved several of them to reference.
Oh boy! I'm thinking that the Potato Enchilada Skillet would taste soooo good as a taco or burrito inside of a tortilla with some cheese and sour cream if you have them available!😋🌮🌯😋🌮🌯
Thank you so very much for your question! If you go to my description box and click on read more and scroll down, you’ll find the link to my recipes. The serving sizes are in the top part of the recipe. I hope this helps and I hope you and your husband enjoy these meals😊
I love these extreme budget videos! My eyes have been opened to the value of things like mashed potato flakes, oatmeal, rice, beans, etc. Also, I have been an Aldi die-hard but have started to mix in Walmart too! Thank you and I love your videos, you are so positive and talented. I have a challenge for when you need new ideas: a week of cooking without a stove (no baking). I make do with a small electric skillet, a small crock pot, a small air fryer, and a microwave. I do have a stove, but long story. lol. I also like that you sometimes do meals for one (like me) vs always a family.
I’d like that suggestion very much. And I would do exactly what you are doing, the air fryer, a crockpot and an electric plate. I really appreciate your positive feedback and I’m happy to hear you have an Aldi nearby. I wish we did! I hear so many good things about it. You have a wonderful rest of your day my friend and thank you so much again, Nancy💜💜💜
I do have a low carb meals. If you Google my name, Julia Pacheco low carb meals they will pop up for you there. You can also look at my sheet pan meals. They are mostly low carb as well😊
Hello Julia and adorable Macie I so look forward for your budget meals.Not only are they budget friendly they all look delicious 😋😋 thank you so much Julia!
I appreciate that, Wanda. Thank you so much for your positive feedback about these videos. I sure hope you can use some of these ideas! Have a wonderful rest of your week💜💜
I’m really happy to hear that these recipes will help! Thank you so much for your positive feedback and kind compliment too. I really appreciate that🙌🏼🧡
Julia thank you for the recipe i'v been a scratch cook all my life your recipes are easy to follow I help a friend that cant cook much he can follow alone very well look forward to more❤😊
Thank you so much. The breakfast biscuit quiche thing is brilliant to fill it up with those $2$ biscuits. Also another cheap meal is hobo dinners. Just through some potatoes and butter in packets of tinfoil and you can add whatever you might have on hand veggie or protein wise and bake at 400 for an hour
I can for sure use these ideas Live rural area so car trouble came up So a big chunk of my check went to transportation being fixed So extra frugal shopping trip came perfect time for this video
Sorry to hear that! Car repair is the worst on a budget for sure! Thank you so very much for your positive, and I really do hope that these ideas help, Britanny 💜
I recently "re-retired" so I can spend more time helping my daughter with my 16-month-old grandson and needless to say, trying to survive just on my fixed income of Social Security and the little savings I have is really difficult! I love all the recipes you have on this video! Thank you so much for taking the time to include a shopping list as well!
Good for you! I am sure your daughter appreciates you and your help so much. But I am sure with that being on such a fixed income makes things extra difficult. Especially depending on where you live! Thank you so much for sharing your positive feedback and I hope that you enjoy these meals.💜💜
These recipes are good. I hope they are in your Cook book. Thank you for sharing your delicious meals. I'm excited to go shopping at Walmart for these items and start cooking 🤓.
This exact recipes are not in my cookbook, but I do have similar recipes there, Teresa. I sure hope you enjoy some of these meals and I hope you’re able to find comparable prices at your Walmart🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you for your amazing recipes I like how the videos are short and we dont watch you chopping and peeling ingredients for 15minutes and also in the recipes you give the instructions what to do and also tips how to do it like mash with the back of a fork... some ppl new to the kitchen or recipes may not know how to chop the eggs etc, your explanations are great !! thank you again !
Thank you so very much, Tracy. I really appreciate that positive feedback. It definitely helps as I edit my videos and I really do love sharing what works for me. Thank you so much again for that positive comment😊
Well that just makes me feel so great! Thank you so much for sharing all that positive feedback and most importantly, good for you! Way to go! You’re awesome🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Those look like yummy recipes. I followed you on my Walmart App & put the same things in my cart. I picked the 10 lb potatoes IDK if you picked 5 or 10? It was $30.85 without tax. Still a great deal for all those meals & I happened to have salt, pepper, chili powder & soy sauce on hand. LoL I'm going shopping Thursday & I'm going to try all these. Thanks & Thank little goggle girl to😊❤️👍
That’s crazy how different prices are from area to area. Thank you so vary much for doing that great comparison and I appreciate you sharing that. Sure hope you enjoy these recipes and thank you so very much for your positive comment, Anna. And our Macie is a hoot😂💜💜
@@JuliaPacheco Yes Marcie looks like she's a lot of fun & a joy to be around. She's very adorable ❤️ Yes prices differ depending where we're at. I've watched videos where their local Walmart is more expensive then mine or less expensive then mine. I've got my list ready & shopping this morning ☺️ Thanks so much ❤️
Thank you for this! I followed your grocery list plus got a few other things for breakfast/lunch/snacks and only spent $50 which is significantly less than what I spend on groceries normally. We made the potato skillet tonight and it was delicious. Grateful for resources like this that are helping me stick to our budget!
That is amazing! I’m so happy to hear that you were able to stick to such a low budget, Alexandria. Way to go! I get so sidetracked when I’m at the grocery store, $50 is awesome including snacks and other items. I hope you enjoy some of these other meals and thank you so much for your positive feedback about that one💜🙌🏼💜
That’s awesome! I sure hope you enjoy my meal plan and it makes your life a little easier. I appreciate your positive, and thank you so much for ordering it💜💜
Hello Julia, I came across your channel and I must say you are saving lives out here. Prices are so high and your channel popped up on my timeline every single meal you made thus far looks amazing. I was looking for different meals because our food tastes different it messes with my stomach and I just want to say thank you so much. Love from Vegas 💐💐💐💐💐
Thank you so very much for your great feedback, Jackie. I’m so very happy to hear that my recipes have helped you so much. That is just awesome! I appreciate your positive feedback and hope that some of these meals help you too💜💜 welcome to my RUclips family!!
This was super helpful, thanks! I just had to pay for car tires and my food budget went from "takeout a couple times a week" to "oh cool, I have $100 to eat on this month"
Hi Julia, great recipes and help for so many people. I've been gone for quite a while, part time in the hospital but don't want to talk about it on here. I'm liking all your video's but not leaving messages. Your little girl is so cute. Stay well and safe, ❤
I am so very sorry to hear you’ve been in the hospital, Erin🙏 I don’t expect you to discuss it here. But please know that I am thinking about you and I appreciate your support no matter how you give it! Thank you so very much for watching and I’m so happy to hear that you are home and out of the hospital💜💜
Well thank you so very much! And I’m sorry to hear that times are tough right now for you. I hope you enjoy some of these recipes and welcome to my RUclips family🙌🏼🙌🏼
You are amazing 🤩 just found your cooking video and the way you waste no time in actually cooking and showing how easy and affordable these recipes are 😊very impressive!!!! New subscriber ❤thank you!!!!
I am so very happy to hear that, Monica. Thank you so much for your positive feedback about my channel and my videos. That means a lot to me to hear that! Welcome to my RUclips family💜💜🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you so very much! If you go to my Amazon store you can find it there. It is a Dutch oven. Thank you so much for watching and hope you enjoy some of these meals🙌🏼🙌🏼
I personally love those hot dogs, and try broiling them they are great. Just an update I made the pepperoni salad and it was great. We got some pepperoni at a butcher shop and then we got another one at our Walmart, it comes wrapped up in just one hunk. Have a lovely week
Oh my goodness! I bet the pepperoni from the butcher shop was outstanding! Makes me want to eat the salad right now. Thank you so much for sharing what you did and I appreciate you watching💜💜

I appreciate that so very much, Patricia! I’m so happy to have you here as one of my loyal supporters and thanks so much for this great shout out💜🙌🏼
Thank you very much for the meal plan. It's really helpful. The recipes look delicious. Greetings.
Hi Julia!!! All your recipes look mighty delicious. I like all your ideas. I will be making a few of these for sure. Cute pic of your daughter. Take Care...Great Video!!!...🦋
Thanks so much for the free meal plan. The recipes all look delicious. Loved the video. 😊
Gosh Julia, what a wonderful blessing you are giving to thousands of people to feed themselves on a very low budget during these very stressed financial times! Thank you so much❣️👍✝️🙏🌍🌎🌏
Amen 🙏
Thank you so very much! That means a lot to me to hear that and I do hope that that is true. It’s so difficult when you’re struggling financially. Thank you so much for your positive comment😊
@@JuliaPacheco Of course this is true! You have a gift of making healthy tasty recipes with very low budget food. Sharing this with all of us gives us some peace and confidence to shop and cook for our families. This relieves a lot of stress❣️👍
Thank you Julia ❤
I am a huge fan of your videos, you are amazing. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world ❤
I like that your recipes don't use expensive or exotic ingredients and you include vegetables! Tasty, healthy meals are much appreciated.
Thank you so very much, Iris. I appreciate that wonderful feedback💜💜
@@JuliaPacheco I appreciate the budget meals and I live alone but I don’t think eggs 🥚 come in “ many” different colors there’s only two white or brown . And also sometimes you use seasonings that I don’t use for example cumin or rosemary or even basic salt because I have high blood pressure so I don’t use salt I usually just use garlic powder and pepper and Italian seasoning but I do like 👍 the budget meals !
I love that you include meatless meals. I’m not vegetarian/vegan, but I occasionally enjoy a meatless meal.
I know just what you mean, I don't eat meat every day and I think that is good for you.
You are so very welcome, Darlene! I appreciate the positive feedback🙌🏼🙌🏼
Unfortunately, my picky husband won't go for meatless meals. And he says the kids are picky eaters. 😆
❤❤
@73cidalia Just add in some meat. It'll only add 3 to 5 dollars. Still much cheaper ❣️😊
You’re a life saver as a broke college student, thank you for making these.
Thank you so very much! I really do appreciate your positive feedback and I hope that these ideas help you. Those years can be really difficult🙌🏼🙌🏼
Agreed - so much healthier and tastier than my 3 meals of ramen a day!
That frozen "seasoning blend" of chopped onions peppers (and celery?) is going to be a lifesaver! I have disabilities that keep me from going to the store in person so these videos really help me find new and good products to look for online.
I use that seasoning blend all the time. I usually add extra celery or celery seed because I just love celery the best in soups & stews, but it's fine without them.
I’m so happy to hear that that idea will help you. And yes, hopefully purchasing a frozen medley like that of vegetables will help you in the kitchen too. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a wonderful day💜
Sweet Julia, I've never made a comment, but always watch your videos and even purchased one of your books! Even though I've been cooking since a child (and you could even be a child of mine), I wanted to give you some much deserved compliments. Firstly, your editing of your shows are just fabulous. They go quickly as I love how things just quickly go to "chopped " or whatever the process, it keeps it fun and interesting. I no longer have the need to feed a family, but all can be reheated. Not enough people stop to think or remember what it's like to run a home, raise children AND put a nice, healthy and enjoyable dinner together. Kudos to all you mothers of the young who seem to be returning to focusing on your families. I truly hope it IS a change, for none of you will EVER regret it later. Family dinners are priceless, no matter what you're serving, but thank you for encouraging your generation.
God bless!
Oh my goodness! Thank you so very much for that wonderful shout out to me and offering that great support to all of my viewers. The most important change we can make is in our homes. I really do agree with that! And thank you so very much for your wonderful feedback. I sure do appreciate you sharing it here and for your loyal support along the way, Jules💜💜💜

Not only are your meals quick and easy. They also taste yummy. One of the things I like most about your videos is we don’t have to watch you cutting up vegetables. Thank you for sharing. ❤😊
I really do appreciate that positive feedback! That definitely helps. I can’t stand that either! Thank you so much for your support here and I hope you enjoy some of these meals🙌🏼🙌🏼
Ooo that drives me nuts when the creator chops everything on camera!
I pass those recipes every time🙄
Funny story. I had to go to the hospital a few days and my husband Pete was like where is her cookbooks. Got on line found you and made a couple meals. They turned out great he said. He was like she needs to make cookbooks for us guys when we have to be bachelor's for a time. And now you have books people buy them she's a gold mine of knowledge. Thank you so much Julia. My whole family is into you now
Thank you so very much for sharing that, Angela! I’m so sorry to hear that you had to go to the hospital though. I hope everything is OK. I think my cookbook is pretty easy to follow and has great pictures too if he is interested. Ha ha! Thank you so much again for your great support here😊
Wish you were around when my 2 adult children were kids. Would have made life a little easier. Thanks Julia
Same here. I remember feeding my two boys and going hungry to make sure they were fed.

She is such a a smart young lady! Jennifer 😊
Thank you so much, Donna. That means a lot! I sure appreciate having you here now💜💜
A friend needed groceries and we don't have a lot of money either and I honestly didnt know what to buy but thanks to your video I shopped this and sent her the video.
That’s awesome! Thank you so very much, Audra for sharing that with me. And I hope it helps your friend as well💜
Julia, I have a challenge for you. I live in Florida and we prep for Hurricane season, which is from June 1-November 30 each year. We prep the best we can with lots of pantry staples, but would you consider doing a meal prep or power outage/pantry meals prep for Hurricane Season or tornado power outages. Things you can make on your grill or your camping stove. Thank you for your consideration. Yoncee
Wow! That is a wonderful suggestion and so needed. Thank you so much for sharing that wonderful idea and Thank you so very much for watching 😊
That is a great idea & not just for Floridians because way up north sometimes ice storms can knock our power out for a while.
This is a great idea. I live in the PNW very small rural mountain town with road closures and power outages for most of the winters.
I agree! I'm in FL too!
I agree with you even though not in Fl! We get ice storms, tornadoes, and straight-line winds that create power outages. This would be a great video to see!
I just discovered you. And what a wonderful way to feed your family. However I am an elderly lady living by myself and this would last me forever. For only $20. As I could freeze it or have company I guess. Thank you for all your wonderful ideas I'm going to look at some others you have produced also . The wonderful part of your video is how you provide a recipes and meal plans thank you so much
Wish Julia and RUclips were around 25 years ago when I was living by myself in my first apartment. I could have eaten better for less. I spent $25-35 a week back then just for me and I survived on pasta, jared spaghetti sauce, bagged salads, frozen burritos, frozen individual pizzas with a crap ton of sodium, Spanish rice kits, and Smart Ones individual frozen meals. I also ate out a lot with friends and co-workers.
Thank you so very much for joining me, Judie! I am so very happy to have you here. I’m so happy to hear that you’ll be able to use these recipes and freeze what you cannot eat for later! That is wonderful. Welcome to my RUclips family💜💜💜
@AngelaM thank you so very much, Angela! You are awesome and I appreciate having you here now. I appreciate you sharing that💜💜
Exactly. Her weekly grocery bill will last me 3-4 weeks. She's so awesome.
I have really bad depression and ADHD and going grocery shopping and preparing meals just feel so overwhelming. You have no idea how helpful this is. Thank you so, so much. I hope you make more videos like this 💗
I’m so very sorry to hear about your health issues. That must be very difficult for you I am sure. I’m happy though to hear that my videos have helped in someway. I hope you enjoy and thank you so very much for watching😊
I feel the same way. I eat the same stuff becuase of it.
You're a godsend. Even in Europe. I might not have the same products available, but most are substitutable, and the basic principles apply just the same. Thank you so much for your efforts, I really appreciate it. ♥🌼
Thank you so very much, Vianne. I’m happy to hear that you will. be able to make the substitutions for foods that you can in Europe. I appreciate your positive feedback and I hope you enjoy them. Thank you so very much for being here💜

We do fried rice in my at least once a week. With my kids getting out of school for the summer. It’s a go to meal for my family.
All your meals look so delicious.
That’s awesome! I love fried rice too. Hope you have a great summer with your kids, April💜💜
Glad to watch your videos. You're always so cheerful and kind. It puts a bright spot in a darker world.
Well thank you so very much! I appreciate your kind words. That means a lot to me and I’m so happy to have you here🧡
I can’t believe but I do believe that you can make all of that food for a little over $20 absolutely amazing thank you
Thank you so very much, Patricia! I appreciate that positive comment and hope you enjoy some of these recipes💜
We find you to be a very kind and generous young woman. With your hard work you give hope to those who are struggling to feed themselves and their famlies during these very difficult times. Your meals look healthy also. Bravo young lady! You should be very proud of yourself as you are making a difference in peoples lives. Keep up the good work! G.B.!
Thank you so very much. Your positive support means the world to me! I sure do appreciate your kind words and I do hope that I can help people. Thank you so much again for Sharing your positive feedback and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week💜
I'm always so impressed at how well thought out each purchased item is so there is no waste. I love the simplicity of the meals that include vegetables for well balanced nutrition. You make it all so easy to follow. I honestly appreciate how this knowledge also includes watching a budget. I give this a 10/10!! Thank you
Wow! Thank you so very much. You are so awesome and I appreciate that positive feedback so very much. I hope you enjoy some of these meals and thank you so very much again for that wonderful compliment😊
Hello. I love your channel. I am in a dorm room and would love meal ideas. I have access to a kitchen with a fridge but no freezer. Maybe prep meals ideas for the week that can help out college students.
Thank you so very much. I’m so happy to have you here. One idea is doing sheet pan meals once a week and refrigerating them for the week. You can find them here on my RUclips channel or Google my name, Julia Pacheco sheet pan meals and they will pop up for you there. Crockpot recipes are also great. They have a real small crockpot too. You can go to my Amazon store my description box and find the ones that I use there. I sure hope this helps and thank you so very much for your great support, Sonya💜💜
Notice the Great Value lines at Walmart. many are even under a dollar.
I don't think I've bought a name brand item in 20 yrs with a few minor exceptions. For the most part, they're exactly the same and 50-70% less. I just couldn't bring myself to waste money on name brands anymore
Great tip! Thank you for sharing that🙌🏼
Only a few things that I am brand loyal to, but about 85 to 90% is always store brand.
But,people don’t realize the same manufacturers that make these brand name products make the generic products, the manufacturers that make them of course varies depending on what the products or items are. That’s like yrs ago in Kentucky, I had family members that went over there who worked over at a pizza manufacturing plant, the thing was they were making the same pizza products and,then, just putting different brand name packaging. And, unfortunately that were factories that were put up too quickly and, within under 3 yrs they shut them down!
@@sonyafox3271 Sometimes the items are the same and sometimes they aren't. You have to try them to find out. Some generic laundry detergents and shampoos were just watered down so you had to use a lot more. Some items are exactly the same, particularly canned fruit and vegetables.
Yes! A lot of people think brown eggs are healthier. The shell color doesn’t reflect nutrients inside at all. Brown or black feathered hens typically lay brown eggs in a variety of colors. White feathered hens lay white eggs. They can all be eating the same diet on the same farm so they would be the same inside. Some breeds lay blue or green shelled eggs but you don’t typically see those in the grocery store
Thank you so very much for sharing that. I sure do appreciate that information about hens.🙌🏼🙌🏼
Oh my goodness, that precious angel with those goggles❣️❣️ These are great, Julia. So many of us need these now more than ever. Saving this video like a bunch of your others🙏
Thank you so very much, Chrissy! And yes, she just showed up with those on. She’s always trying to make us laugh! I hope that these ideas help💜💜
@@JuliaPacheco I got a great laugh when she showed up😂
No cheese! Girl you were exercising willpower this week. We all know how much you love cheese. 😂
You are so right, Ashley! It’s all I can do not to add cheese to something. Ha ha! You’re awesome💜💜
I haven't watched the video yet. No cheese? Awesome, and perfect for my dairy allergy kiddo!
@@JuliaPachecoI love cheese to
This is so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to put these meals together! And please tell baby that she looks AMAZING in her goggles!! Sending love from my family to yours!
Haha! she was cracking me up. She always tries to be funny. Thank you so much for your positive feedback💜💜
I love that your meals are not only easy and inexpensive but they are nutritious and you use plenty of vegetables. You show that you can eat nutritious meals on a tight budget.
Well thank you so much for that positive comment. I appreciate that! And yes, frozen vegetables can go along way and obviously have such a great shelflife. Thank you so much again and I hope you enjoy some of these ideas💜💜
Oh my goodness......Macey is growing so fast, and she is absolutely adorable. 😊
She sure is! And thank you so very much💜💜
I say it every time you share one of these videos, but I have to say it again - THANK YOU so much for sharing these awesome meals that are healthy, flavorful, and affordable. You're budget meals over the last couple of years have been the reason we get to eat most weeks. I'm so glad I found your channel every time I see a new video!
Thank you so much, Emily! I really am so happy to hear that my budget meals have helped you and your family so much. I’m glad everybody enjoys my meals and hopefully have helped you out financially too. Have a great rest of your week and thanks so much for your support💜💜
Happy Memorial Day weekend, Julia! I have tried several of your extreme budget meals because they always look delicious. It is amazing how good inexpensive meals can be with the right spices and seasonings. Thank you.
This is so true! The spices make it extra good. Thank you so very much for your loyal support every week and I hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday weekend💜💜
Thank you. I got layed off and thankful found a new job but it pays way less so I’m helpful for suggestions. I was use to shopping at Sprouts and I have readjust my shopping habits. Thank you so much
That is definitely super tough. Especially when you’re used to shopping at a store that has such fresh produce and other food items. I do hope that these ideas help you and thank you so very much for your positive comment😊
You always amazes me my dear friend. All these recipes look delicious. You will never know what a blessing you are to all who watch your videos sweetie .May God bless y'all sweet friend 🙏 👵
Thank you so very much sweet Linda. You are always so very kind to me and I appreciate your great support here. I sure hope I get to meet some of you guys someday. You’re awesome💜💜
I can’t tell you how much your videos have helped me! My husband is disabled so we live on his SSDI and I am a nursing student, so the budget is tight. It’s even tighter now that we have a 2 year old. You are giving me so many good ideas to stretch the budget. Thank you ❤️
I’m so very happy to hear that my recipes have helped you, Corinna. Good for you going to nursing school and being a mom at the same time. I’m sure that is very challenging! In the end, it will definitely be worth it. I’m happy to hear that these ideas help you and your family in your current situation💜🙏
🌻🌻🌻🌻Julia, Thank You so much for the Free Budget Meal Plan. These meals, as all of your recipes, look delicious and easy to make. God bless you and your family 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
You are so welcome! Thank you so very much and I sure do appreciate your blessings. I hope you and your family are doing well too💜💜💜
I love your budget meal videos, Julia. Thank you so much for your free meal plan - that's very generous of you. Much appreciated.
You are so very welcome! I hope that my meal plan helps and thank you so much for your positive comment about my budget meals😊
Wonderful meals for the value and on budget.
Thank you so very much, Sharon! I appreciate that🙌🏼
What I like about julia is she strives to include vegetables and protein as much as possible. It's still very light on protein though, so if you are any kind of athlete or gym-goer just add 2 WPI shakes per day (cost effective per gram of protein!) and bulk up the meals with white rice
I appreciate those great tips. And thank you so very much for your great support. You are awesome!🙌🏼🙌🏼
I think I will be making the sweet potatoes, black beans, spinach and rice to take for lunch this week.
Me too!👍🏻
Awesome! That is a great idea. I hope you enjoy💜
Cooking is the best skill I've learned.
Good for you!🙌🏼
Mrs. Julia you are amazing that is why I love this channel so much. And the food I cook from your channel is fantastic too ❤❤.
Thank you so very much, Karen. I appreciate your kind words and your wonderful support here. You’re awesome💜💜
@@JuliaPacheco I think your amazing Mrs. Julia . Tell Macie hi and she looks good. I'm still trying to get my cookbook of yours.
Aldi's is the cheapest grocery store in my area. Thank you for the recipes!! ❤
That is what I have heard! I’m glad to hear that you have an Aldi’s nearby as a food resource. Thank you so much for watching, Judith😊
God bless this woman!
Thank you so very much!😊
Well, there are dinners set for us for a week at least. Julia, you have no idea how much you are helping all of us!
That is wonderful, Rachelle. I’m so happy to help in some small way. I really mean that! Thank you so much for your great support💜💜
You are just so good at budgeting and creating good, delicious meals that are easy. Love them all!
Thanks so much! 😊 I really do appreciate that positive feedback, Colleen💜💜
👍🏼Give this lil' mama a LIKE👍🏼 Way to go, Julia! Very nice... Thank you, have a blessed day and everyone seeing this please take a moment to remember those who gave their all and the loved ones left behind tomorrow! xoxo
Thank you so very much for that wonderful shout out for memorial day, Aimee. I sure do appreciate that! And I sure do appreciate your great support here every week. You are the best! Hope you enjoy some of these recipes💜💜
By far one of the best budget meal videos I’ve seen! You have great recipes and I like your editing!
Thank you so much!! That is just the best feedback ever. I sure do appreciate that🙌🏼
🎉 happy Sunday to you Julia! Wonderful, innovative recipes. thanks for sharing
Thank you so very much! And a very happy Sunday to you too.💜💜
Thank you Julia, the frozen celery, onion, bell pepper and parsley is a game changer for me too. Will use in many recipes. Gotta love Walmart! Have never seen that at my local grocery store. Enjoy the week!😊❤
It’s a great combo for so many things! I really do hope you enjoy it, Carolyn and thank you so much for the positive comment🙌🏼
Sometimes, I think we confuse the terms " meals, servings, portions".
* Meals to me
Ingredients which when put together are intended to be eaten at a certain time of day.
Example : I cook Pork Chops, Mashed Potatos, Green Beans, Applesauce and make a Salad. It is intended for dinner so I consider it a meal.
* Serving to me
When my mother in law places a scoop of Mashed Potatos on my plate - that is a serving. It is what is designated to feed a person.
* Portion to me
This is when I place a definite amount of food say, 1/4 cup of those Mashed Potatos and 1/2 cup on my son's plate. I " portion" the food by the # of people eating what I prepared.
❤ I love your videos because they inspire me to be creative and to think.
To point out, this video is not 48 meals, it's 6 meals with 48 servings.
More magic in the kitchen dear Julia! These are wonderful budget-stretching recipes for someone on a fixed income. Also, your smile and sunny attitude are very endearing. I hope you have a wonderful week.
Oh, Pam. Thank you so very much! That is a very kind compliment for sure and I hope you enjoy these recipes this week💜💜
Don't know how you do it every week. But am glad you do...xo As always ur friend from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
I’m so glad, Elaine! Thank you so much for your positive feedback and your wonderful support from Canada💜💜
I think this video is my favorite of your budget meals. Protein and veggies in all meals. Unfortunately though this is a normal budget for me. As a disabled senior on a low fixed income I love your budget meals and have saved several of them to reference.
I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed this particular video, Betty. Thank you so much for your positive feedback and I hope that these recipes help💜🙏
Oh boy! I'm thinking that the Potato Enchilada Skillet would taste soooo good as a taco or burrito inside of a tortilla with some cheese and sour cream if you have them available!😋🌮🌯😋🌮🌯
Oh my goodness! Yes it would! Sounds so good and I appreciate you sharing that here🙌🏼
@@JuliaPacheco My pleasure Ms. Julia!... Happy Memorial Day!🙏🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲🙏
You never cease to amaze me with your recipes! Your little girl is adorable.
Oh! Thank you so very much. I sure do appreciate your kind words of support💜💜
What is the portion size? My husband would eat all that in five days.
Thank you so very much for your question! If you go to my description box and click on read more and scroll down, you’ll find the link to my recipes. The serving sizes are in the top part of the recipe. I hope this helps and I hope you and your husband enjoy these meals😊
I love these extreme budget videos! My eyes have been opened to the value of things like mashed potato flakes, oatmeal, rice, beans, etc. Also, I have been an Aldi die-hard but have started to mix in Walmart too! Thank you and I love your videos, you are so positive and talented. I have a challenge for when you need new ideas: a week of cooking without a stove (no baking). I make do with a small electric skillet, a small crock pot, a small air fryer, and a microwave. I do have a stove, but long story. lol. I also like that you sometimes do meals for one (like me) vs always a family.
I’d like that suggestion very much. And I would do exactly what you are doing, the air fryer, a crockpot and an electric plate. I really appreciate your positive feedback and I’m happy to hear you have an Aldi nearby. I wish we did! I hear so many good things about it. You have a wonderful rest of your day my friend and thank you so much again, Nancy💜💜💜
Would love to see you make dinner’s that are low carbohydrate.
Me too. That would be a real challenge!
I do have a low carb meals. If you Google my name, Julia Pacheco low carb meals they will pop up for you there. You can also look at my sheet pan meals. They are mostly low carb as well😊
@@JuliaPacheco Thank you!
Hello Julia and adorable Macie I so look forward for your budget meals.Not only are they budget friendly they all look delicious 😋😋 thank you so much Julia!
I appreciate that, Wanda. Thank you so much for your positive feedback about these videos. I sure hope you can use some of these ideas! Have a wonderful rest of your week💜💜
48 meals or 49 servings?
It's servings or individual meals I watch a few channels that do this
Right, it's 6 meals, where a person can have 48/49 servings. Title is misleading.
@@ShoppingAttic right? It would be less confusing to say the total number of meals and then how many servings are in each meal.
These look delicious. You’d never guess these are budget meals. Thank you for sharing Julia! You are a sweetheart.
That’s awesome, Cathy! I hope you enjoy them and I appreciate your positive words here 💜💜
Correction 48 meals servings for $20
I was gonna say this in now way is 48 meals worth of food.!
I just want to say. You’re doing amazing work. You’re a blessing. In this economy, l love this video . Love your attitude 🥺🩵🥹🙌
I’m really happy to hear that these recipes will help! Thank you so much for your positive feedback and kind compliment too. I really appreciate that🙌🏼🧡
Those Bar S hot dogs,though. They’re just the worst. I’d pay a little more for some decent hot dogs
Julia thank you for the recipe i'v been a scratch cook all my life your recipes are easy to follow I help a friend that cant cook much he can follow alone very well look forward to more❤😊
I’m happy to hear that you enjoy my meals. I really do hope that these ideas help you with your friend and I appreciate you watching💜
NO! Never Bar S hot dogs, not even if they're free! They are the absolute worst.
You are truly gifted and a blessing! Your recipes are easy and delicious! Thank you for all you do! 😃
Well thank you so very much. That is such a wonderful compliment and I sure do appreciate it😊
Thank you so much. The breakfast biscuit quiche thing is brilliant to fill it up with those $2$ biscuits. Also another cheap meal is hobo dinners. Just through some potatoes and butter in packets of tinfoil and you can add whatever you might have on hand veggie or protein wise and bake at 400 for an hour
Thanks so much for sharing that! I love foil dinners. We do them on the campfire sometimes! Hope you enjoy that breakfast quiche, Stefanie 💜💜
I can for sure use these ideas
Live rural area so car trouble came up
So a big chunk of my check went to transportation being fixed
So extra frugal shopping trip came perfect time for this video
Sorry to hear that! Car repair is the worst on a budget for sure! Thank you so very much for your positive, and I really do hope that these ideas help, Britanny 💜
I recently "re-retired" so I can spend more time helping my daughter with my 16-month-old grandson and needless to say, trying to survive just on my fixed income of Social Security and the little savings I have is really difficult! I love all the recipes you have on this video! Thank you so much for taking the time to include a shopping list as well!
Good for you! I am sure your daughter appreciates you and your help so much. But I am sure with that being on such a fixed income makes things extra difficult. Especially depending on where you live! Thank you so much for sharing your positive feedback and I hope that you enjoy these meals.💜💜
You are brilliant, Julia. Thank you so much for these quick tips and recipes. You are a blessing to many people. 👍🏻👍🏻🥰🥰😋😋🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you so very much. That is just the best compliment ever! I appreciate your kind words and I do hope that my meals help💜
These recipes are good. I hope they are in your Cook book. Thank you for sharing your delicious meals. I'm excited to go shopping at Walmart for these items and start cooking 🤓.
This exact recipes are not in my cookbook, but I do have similar recipes there, Teresa. I sure hope you enjoy some of these meals and I hope you’re able to find comparable prices at your Walmart🙌🏼🙌🏼
I never thought to add potatoes to anything with Mexican style flavors! A great way to bulk it up and yet another reason to love potatoes.!
Yes! I really hope you love it😊🙌🏼
I never knew to rinse my rice and oh my what a difference it makes. It was so much better.
I’m so happy to hear that!🙌🏼
Julia, I don’t know where you get these recipes, but keep them coming! Great ideas.❤❤❤
Glad you like them! And thank you so very much, Connie. I appreciate your wonderful feedback💜💜
You are so amazing Julia. Thanks for everything you do. Your hard work and dedication is outstanding 👍💪
Thank you so very much! I appreciate that so much and I sure do love all of you💜💜
Love these budget friendly meals, not only are they affordable but delicious. I also buy Walmart store brand items 😊
I’m so glad! Thank you so much for sharing that great feedback. I hope you enjoy these meals💜💜
Thank you for your amazing recipes I like how the videos are short and we dont watch you chopping and peeling ingredients for 15minutes and also in the recipes you give the instructions what to do and also tips how to do it like mash with the back of a fork... some ppl new to the kitchen or recipes may not know how to chop the eggs etc, your explanations are great !! thank you again !
Thank you so very much, Tracy. I really appreciate that positive feedback. It definitely helps as I edit my videos and I really do love sharing what works for me. Thank you so much again for that positive comment😊

These are great ideas to make for a food kitchen or party meals for many people.
That’s awesome! I hope you enjoy them and thank you so very much for that suggestion, Kassy💜💜
Those look like yummy recipes. I followed you on my Walmart App & put the same things in my cart. I picked the 10 lb potatoes IDK if you picked 5 or 10?
It was $30.85 without tax.
Still a great deal for all those meals & I happened to have salt, pepper, chili powder & soy sauce on hand. LoL
I'm going shopping Thursday & I'm going to try all these.
Thanks & Thank little goggle girl to😊❤️👍
That’s crazy how different prices are from area to area. Thank you so vary much for doing that great comparison and I appreciate you sharing that. Sure hope you enjoy these recipes and thank you so very much for your positive comment, Anna. And our Macie is a hoot😂💜💜

Yes Marcie looks like she's a lot of fun & a joy to be around. She's very adorable ❤️
Yes prices differ depending where we're at. I've watched videos where their local Walmart is more expensive then mine or less expensive then mine.
I've got my list ready & shopping this morning ☺️
Thanks so much ❤️
Thank you for this! I followed your grocery list plus got a few other things for breakfast/lunch/snacks and only spent $50 which is significantly less than what I spend on groceries normally. We made the potato skillet tonight and it was delicious. Grateful for resources like this that are helping me stick to our budget!
That is amazing! I’m so happy to hear that you were able to stick to such a low budget, Alexandria. Way to go! I get so sidetracked when I’m at the grocery store, $50 is awesome including snacks and other items. I hope you enjoy some of these other meals and thank you so much for your positive feedback about that one💜🙌🏼💜
Wow. These are really awesome meals. Thank you so much for sharing them. Definitely saving this video.
I’m so happy to hear that! And I hope you enjoy some of these meals💜

Hello Julia, I came across your channel and I must say you are saving lives out here. Prices are so high and your channel popped up on my timeline every single meal you made thus far looks amazing. I was looking for different meals because our food tastes different it messes with my stomach and I just want to say thank you so much. Love from Vegas 💐💐💐💐💐

Hi Julia, great recipes and help for so many people. I've been gone for quite a while, part time in the hospital but don't want to talk about it on here. I'm liking all your video's but not leaving messages. Your little girl is so cute. Stay well and safe, ❤

I personally love those hot dogs, and try broiling them they are great. Just an update I made the pepperoni salad and it was great. We got some pepperoni at a butcher shop and then we got another one at our Walmart, it comes wrapped up in just one hunk. Have a lovely week
Oh my goodness! I bet the pepperoni from the butcher shop was outstanding! Makes me want to eat the salad right now. Thank you so much for sharing what you did and I appreciate you watching💜💜
I agree with you Walmart is the cheapest store where I live also. I appreciate these recipes that you put together every week.
You are so welcome! I hope you enjoy these recipes too🙌🏼
