What folks may miss is that when you cut the portions of meat servings you are also adding protein through the cheese in the meal. With prices so high we need to be creative in how we maintain nutrition while providing delicious meals to our families. Great job Brooke

@greyhatdone Год назад

I agree. I've changed the way I shop with inflation, I buy ahead/plan more ahead based on what's on sale. Picking up that chest freezer in 2021 has really helped.

@leighwagstaff2100 11 месяцев назад

There's protein in vegetables as well 👍and you really don't need a lot of protein!... if you eat to much protein your liver stores the rest 👍

@theresarogerssimpson1280 11 месяцев назад

Exactly what I was thinking.

@deannacaudill5515 Год назад

The joy of my morning!!! Thanks for being the best channel ❤ I just wrote our next family meal plan/grocery list, 2 WEEKS FOR $90! I could never have done it without your channel!

@SouthernFrugalMomma Год назад

Thank you so much!! I'm so happy to hear this channel has helped!!

@beckymcd7679 Год назад

Stop apologizing for your pan! Mine looks the exact same way because I use them often. Thanks for all you do!

@SouthernFrugalMomma Год назад

One thing I can say is, that pan is used very very often lol

@shirleystrinden477 Год назад

A used pan is a flavorsome pan. I have different pans for different foods. 😆

@kimknowlton3334 Год назад

Mine looks the same…well used and seasoned!

@sunniertimer598 11 месяцев назад

Thats called a seasoned fry pan.

@racheller2743 5 месяцев назад

We all have a pan like that

@miscelany2 Год назад

I appreciate the fact that you stretched 2 chicken breasts to feed your family. It's fine to have a larger portion once in a while but over all less is healthier. An actual portion of animal protein is the size of a deck of cards so your serving size was spot on. Plus the eggs in the coating and cheese had protein as do potatoes and green beans.

@amandasnailtasticnails9657 Год назад

I always cut a chicken breast like Brooke and call them chicken steaks because I don’t like how they cook up whole. When they are whole I never get them done in the middle. By making steaks I can get them done.

@gloriaelswood8762 Год назад

In Idaho we call your fancy sauce “fry sauce”. Your meals look delicious

@lifewithkymm Год назад

Yes! Idaho, Washington, Oregon and California it’s fry sauce. Maybe that’s just a pnw/ west coast thing lol

@kathleenmiller516 Год назад

Nevada too.

@lynne_c Год назад

My kids don't love red sauce, but they love buffalo sauce. I heat buffalo sauce with chicken broth, thicken it with roux or cornstarch, put that over breaded chicken, top with cheese, and bake. Serve with rice, pasta, or potatoes.

@nwad3322 Год назад

If you put sweet pickle relish in your “fancy sauce” it becomes thousand island dressing!

@SouthernFrugalMomma Год назад

I might try that next time we make patty melts!

@leeanncornell8305 Год назад

😋😍🥰😇🤩🎉🎈😁

@gloriapeel6887 Год назад

Thanks so much for sharing! Everything looks awesome! You should do a cook book! It would be a best seller ! Love to you and your family!

@amandaxx4914 Год назад

My kids are growing and always hungry. Sheesh. It is harder to keep them satisfied. I used to think it was because they're bored. They're going through a growth spurt. I love these videos.

@AshleyRamirez-v1p 3 дня назад

We do the sausage that way, scrambled eggs on the side and corn tortillas with homemade salsa. So easy and so good.

@GigisHouse1974 Год назад

Your meals look delish! The cracker salad must be a southern thing, I was raised in the North, and I've never heard of it. But I also don't know everyone in the North, so, who knows??! Lol. I have pans that have been loved just as much as yours, its good to know they have cousins out there:-) I will have to try the salad and the chow chow. I've always wanted to try that. Somewhat still wet behind the ears in canning. P.S. Your children are adorable!

@elizabethteeter6284 Год назад

How's your husband doing praying for a speedy recovery 🙏💕

@PeriwinkleBluetag Год назад

I thought I had seen just about everything but I have never heard of cracker salad and I’m Southern. You are an awesome cook and I love how frugal you are. But most of all I appreciate what good parents you are and how your boys eat everything.

@nancycarney Год назад

I tried to make cut backs for January. I have already spent $220. That being said, I do not have to go back to the grocery store for 2 weeks. I was able to get some good sales and paid $24.89 for 7 1/2 dozen crated eggs.

@Mimi-qc5hd Год назад

i love mixing Mayo and katsup as a sauce, I eat it with French fries

@aliciapalozzi7117 Год назад

You’re the best!! I just love your fun personality and great meal plans

@deborahgreene1256 Год назад

You are just amazing! You are definitely frugal and such a good cook! Thanks for sharing your life with your precious family! God bless you and yours! 🙏🏻👵❤

@sharonmckee2403 Год назад

I am amused at your personality! And your ability to be yourself and not pretend. (At least it looks that way) I am m in the south too… and I think we southerners are just east to be around. Your kids are great to give taste tests… and your husband talks like mine… in 1 word answers or grunts! Lol! I love it!

@michellebeltran4157 Год назад

Made the general Tso chicken from aldi last night! Everyone ate that up!! Thank you so much for the idea. And paired it with the spring rolls from the dollar tree!

@janallen541 Год назад

Do you have a recipe? I love general Tso chicken

@kimknowlton3334 Год назад

I made that and my family loved it!

@tinaeller9308 Год назад

Try a tablespoon of mayonnaise in your mashed potatoes, it makes them really smooth and gives great flavor but it won’t taste mayonnaise.

@elainenicholls7648 Год назад

Let's all help Brooke by letting the ads play during her videos. Thx everyone

@DeborahIsaacs-nx4dw Месяц назад

Will do😊

@rubytaylor4566 Год назад

Your meals looks Delicious 😋 Ms Ruby

@skybluepinkd Год назад

I love the fried sandwich ham. When me and dad got our first apartment when I was he couldn't cook much but knew how to make mashed potatoes so he'd fry up sandwich ham and we'd have cucumbers on the side

@amybell5181 Год назад

Great recipes! Love, love these videos🙂

@aimee2234 Год назад

Thanks, Brooke! I love watching. Have a phenominal day and be blessed always! xoxo

@SouthernFrugalMomma Год назад

Thank you! You too!

@laceyhodges3905 Год назад

I love all of your boys they are so sweet and respectful but Ky is so funny when he faints! I live in North Alabama but I swear if you lived closer, we would be best friends. Next time we visit the Smokies I will be looking for you!

@amyquillen2506 Год назад

Breakfast for dinner is always a hit in our house. I try to do it 2-3 X a month. We usually don't eat first thing in the morning either.

@amandabrown5462 Год назад

I've been stocking up a pantry because of you cooking more at home andlearning new cheap recipes I am s glad I found your channel absolutely love you

@DeborahIsaacs-nx4dw Месяц назад

@cindaschuster6725 Год назад

Never seen cracker salad before. 👍

@christeenprice5637 Год назад

Brooke you have some great ideas, thanks for sharing 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

@dellawhalen3937 Год назад

Your pan is 'well seasoned'..just shows you use it. I have several like that. Lol. Keep on doing what you do. You have great ideas for people & I love watching you! ❤️

@normamcclary7700 Год назад

In California we call that sauce.....thousand island.

@maurinadittenhaffer6140 Год назад

Brooke Enjoyed seeing your meals. Your chicken parm looked amazing we like having breakfast for dinner too. Your meals looked great.

@lisaybarra3903 Год назад

I love your enthusiasm and energy. I always look forward to watching your videos too. The chicken pasta dish looks so good. I have a question for you. Off the top of my head I cant remember, but have you made any videos using up canned chicken? I've made salad and alfredo with it, but I need some more uses for it because I bought a few cans of it and need some new ideas please. Thank you.

@UpDownMichelle Год назад

Worcestershire sauce I think is pronounced "wusta" "sure"... but who really knows lol

@brenda2530 Год назад

Great video! I enjoy watching all your videos! 😊

@Brie7362 Год назад

Needed pasta under the tomato sauce chicken 🍝

@shirleystrong2122 Год назад

Great ideas brook! Love your videos! Be blessed.

@lilrustee Год назад

Good job! Love this video. Oh, and that sheet pan? That’s patina on there! I don’t trust someone who has perfect pans yet they use them all of the time.

@bethclay476 Год назад

We do the ketchup mayo mix for our crawfish dip here in south Louisiana love it. 💕💕 Well I add spice to mine.

@BergenholtzChannel Год назад

Yeah, I think it must be a southern thing. I have never heard of cracker salad before you.

@kaybee8646 Год назад

Bacon would be awesome on those cheeseburger pizzas!!

@tammifields4142 Год назад

All of your meals look Absolutely DELICIOUS!😋😋

@cnk2hoo Год назад

Super interested in who else has heard of cracker salad. I'm in VA, and it's a first for me.

@weaverwagon6084 Год назад

Brooke, you are amazing and I love your videos. Thank you for being who you are and blessing our family!

@jackieburnett6881 Год назад

Absolutely delicious meals!! Ty for sharing!

@tinaryan3877 Год назад

Love your channel and I always get some great ideas! We bought your budget book and are also trying $50 a week for our family of 5! Using what we have and replacing a bit to the pantry weekly.. thank you again for the great meals!

@sallygordin2869 Год назад

Everything looks great 👍 Blessings!!

@susanprather5962 Год назад

Everything looks good, especially the breakfast for dinner. I love your channel and I get excited when I see a notification for a new video from you. 😁

@kristin5635 Год назад

Our fancy sauce 1c bbq, 1/2c mayo, 2-3T relish, 1T sriracha. (Sweet Baby Ray's original bbq) it's good with burgers and our version of the hamburger pizza and amazing with home fries too! Great job Brooke! ❤

@kerryberry142 Год назад

Great job!

@xxanimefanxxful Год назад

I love your videos

@kaykrausman8012 Год назад

Dang! Great way to take out your frustrations, while pounding the chicken pieces!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The end result looks delicious, by the way😋

@ryannfox301 Год назад

My family is originally (a few generations back) from rural Mississippi. They often ate beans, cornbread and MAYO. I saw Collin's bowl of pinto beans and cornbread. Try some mayo mixed in next time (a big spoonful) and you'll be amazed! They also eat cornbread with mayo in vegetable soup and it is so, so good!!!

@Lellieg8 Год назад

Your fancy sauce is very similar to the crawfish dip we make down here in Southern Louisiana, to eat boiled crawfish with. Its ketchup, mayo (normally Blue Plate), Tabasco to taste, Worcestershire sauce, and your Cajun seasoning of choice (Tonys, Slap, any of them really). My mom will add a squeeze of lemon sometimes, and that's good too. (Fun fact, Raisin Canes was started down here, and they basically just use crawfish dip, for their Canes sauce lol)

@Mrs.Peachthriftyliving Год назад

You are one of my favorite RU-vidrs who do cooking you always make something look so easy and practical thank you so very much ❤️

@catholicfaithofmine2664 Год назад

Yup. I'm actually spending a little over 40.00 a week for my family. Living out of my pantry and doing no spend months this year. It's pronounced Wooster Shear sauce lol

@heidis6210 Год назад

Wait I don't remember watching the steak sandwiches video which one was it in?!?

@spilltheteaalloverme8810 Год назад

I had a friend who’s brother was a butcher and he said don’t buy tube meats they’re lesser quality

@marianawarden7380 Год назад

I just wanted to thank you for the egg substitute you made. I actually made the brownies with apple sauce 😋🤤 it was so good you are amazing with your ideas

@SouthernFrugalMomma Год назад

I'm so glad it worked for you! I thought the brownies with applesauce was better than the original with eggs. I am gonna stick to that!

@marianawarden7380 Год назад

So am I 👍👍🥰

@lolareh8756 Год назад

Hey, Brooke.. I guess you haven't heard Pepper Belly Pete refer to Worcestershire sauce as "wash your sister sauce". I'll never call it anything else from now on. LOL. It's even funnier to hear him say it.....he's got that same southern twang we do...

@GamingwithRBXPACKGOD Год назад

Thank you for sharing these great recipes! I really enjoyed this video & will have to try out some of these recipes for my family ❤

@shannonhudgins Год назад

added Italian Seasoning until "it made me happy" I'm so glad I'm not alone using this measuring method.

@sandracameron6811 Год назад

These are all so yummy! My daughter is gluten & dairy intolerant so it always seems to cost a bit more. But these recipes will be easy to adjust. Thank you. 😃

@kristinmoore4624 Год назад

We don't do breakfast either but love breakfast foods! I've been that way my whole life and my kids followed suit, my husband adjusted lol. I can appreciate quick lazy meals. 👍🏻

@danasandlin2435 Год назад

I think that I would make the cracker salad with ranch dressing...dts/usa

@addictionmouse4627 Год назад

Never heard of cracker salad but it looks good and worth a try!! Thanks!

@lindaroper6698 4 месяца назад

I think that’s how McDonald’s makes their Special Sauce.

@misfit7610 Год назад

Great job girlfriend I love the meals! I made a couple of the meals soooooo stinking easy! We're loosing 1/3 of our income so these budget meals help us out so much. Our pantry is full and I'm planning on spending no more than 100 for the month for the 3 of us or even less if possible. Thanks again Brooke for these meals LOVE YOU!!!

@maricorrero2077 Год назад

We make the fancy sauce with a little hot sauce and we eat it with shrimp! Yummy!

@MommaLousKitchen Год назад

We don't eat breakfast, and I rarely do lunch. If I do it's light lol... I make the kids breakfast, usually uneaten. Depends.

@BJ-kp3rp Год назад

It all looked great! I love to find ways to stretch the meals like only using 2 chicken breast. We are a family of 5 too. I'm trying to do a low spend January and eat out of the pantry and freezer. We had to take advantage of some sales so have spent. So question, when you do your cash envelopes for different categories like food and then household or clothing, do you check out each category separately at the store? I track our receipts in every dollar but dont do cash envelopes. I just break up the spending in different categories in every dollar app. But its helpful to check out in categories but I do it in one transaction. I just do like food first, then household or whatever. I may try cash envelopes again but it was always a pain to go withdraw money last time. Lol

@samanthal562 Год назад

Hi lovely it’s pronounced wus-ter- sher we English are weird I know 😂 happy new year to you and your lovely family ❤

@SouthernFrugalMomma Год назад

I try to say it correctly, and it comes out as something else lol!! Hope you and your family has a Great 2023!

@lelliesosa7039 Год назад

I really enjoyed this video. You gave me alot of ideas on what to cook. By the way I would love to see another Temu haul if you'd like.

@sonistowe1448 Год назад

my family doesnt eat breakfast either..usually its a brunch and dinner..lol

@katherinehorton664 Год назад

You're awesome!! And yes homecanned groundbeef and turkey are awesome!!

@Enasbooksandbudgets Год назад

i was gunna just save $200 for gifts for Christmas but my family does Christmas during thanksgiving week because that's the only time my little sister can get off work. so now im like.....okay but now i have to save money for our big dinner too. we all chip in to pay for it but we go all out because we only see her twice a year.

@jalessandra80 Год назад

My dad has eaten that sauce for my entire 42yrs I've been alive. Lol

@sherrieoday6848 Год назад

The taco/ pizza you made reminded me of like a Big Mac but upgraded. Also, girl stop apologizing for the way a pan looks… it does it’s job… right? That’s all that counts!!!❤️

@pennyelliot5658 Год назад

I pronounce it Wustersure sauce lol part that comes from my Tennessee accent and part of that is the fact I can't pronounce the word worth a flip!! Iol

@jenniferthomas9663 Год назад

Awesome recipes, I am definitely going to make them! Love your videos!!

@lindabeck3412 Год назад

Could you tell us the weight total of the chicken? I tried to read the package but couldn't. I'm feeling better the chicken breast combined with egg from the coating puts you servings very near the recommended meat portion . Good job! The chicken looks good & I don't rarely eat meat

@karenhill1431 Год назад

Good morning Brooke 😊 I love that you made breakfast for supper. We do that once in a blue moon. If it were up to me we would have it more often. Everything you prepared on this video looked delicious.

@catheyclarke2132 Год назад

Hi lovely Lady 😆😆 That dinner looks fantastic xxxx Well done 👍👍

@melissajones2009 Год назад

I have never heard of cracker salad.. it looked really good though. I'm going to have to investigate this, and make some. 👍🏻

@kristinstauffer Год назад

I have never heard of cracker salad. Grew up in Illinois, lived in Virginia Beach for 5 years, and now in Phoenix for 15....lol.

@rosetyler592 Год назад

I make a similar 🫑 pepper, onion 🧅 and sausage dish. However I add about 3 to 4 Tbs of Apple jelly towards the end it makes a really nice sauce as it cooks down. We eat it over rice.

@mjoverocker6072 Год назад

In Idaho they call the sauce Fry Sauce and its delicious, im definitely making the chicken fried with the pasta sauce an cheese !!! Also its gonna be chilly here this weekend so im getting my Ham n Beans out of the freezer from left overs

@auntrowdy Год назад

I’ve never heard of cracker salad! It looks good tho!

@chill6148 Год назад

There is nothing like breakfast for dinner to sooth the soul! Some of my favorite dinners have been breakfast! Love it! 😋Thanks for the video Brooke!

@lyndamcleod2242 Год назад

Just say Wooster sauce,that’s what we say in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 x x

@tjloutzenhiser2503 Год назад

thanks to being sick. i haven't made it to the market in over a week. so i am shopping my pantry and freezer. sunday i fixed a ham with assorted sides, monday, i made a casserole with all the leftovers. tuesday, i cooked up 2 corned beefs that i found in the bottom of the freezer with some mashed red potatoes. today, wednesday-- i have the leftover corned beef simmering in a brown sugar and brown mustard sauce and i topped the leftover mashed taters with cheese and a bit of parsley and got them in the oven as well. found some chicken broth leftover from the ham, and i got green beans simmering in the chicken broth. family is well fed, and i got a few dollars in my account. and i didn't have to order in pizza. lol in my area--3 pizzas are 100.00 including the delivery fee.

@rachaelturley8977 Год назад

In Michigan, we call “Fancy Sauce” Fry Sauce…you go to McDonalds and ask for fry sauce, you’ll get a cup of that to dip your fries in 😁

@Hotmessbudgets Год назад

Omg that parm look so good and easy. Also I have never seen someone mash potatoes with beaters!! Genius! Going to try it next time for sure!! Now that I think of it I have everything I need to make this dish exactly as you did 🤩😍😍

@jenmv3483 Год назад

Those eggs beautiful, would you consider selling them to neighbors? I would buy them! Ya' know the price of eggs. 😅

@SuperMomMac Год назад

Your recipes are always so great! I love all the meals you prepare, just wonderful!

@terrimosier4393 Год назад

When you made the pasta dish it reminded me of Chef Boyardee lol that looks good. All the dishes looks delicious. Thank you for sharing Brook.

@nunyabiznizz5619 Год назад

I always thought salt should be added to dried beans after cooking because it can slow the cooking process, especially if the beans are older. Am I wrong or is that just bobbledegook?
