The title bothers me. This should be retitled to say "Private chef comes up with the best $20 dinner ever thought of". She didn't just "try", She worked the hell outta this challenge.
This meal is fabulous. You would easily pay $100 or more for four at an Italian restaurant. And it's an easy meal to prepare. Can't wait to duplicate this one 👍
when I saw the title I thought this would be so easy (y'know: rice, beans), but she blew me away with the QUALITY this is one of the BEST 3-course meals one could conceive for 20 dollars, not just a 20 dollar set of dishes
I did this menu 3 days ago and it was such a big hit! I did some minor changes to my taste, added a green salad as a dish, used grape tomatoes and cucumber instead of zucchini on the 1st plate, roasted red pepper instead of spinach in the chicken rolls, and used regular pannacotta with strawberry jam on top. All worked great! Really incredible, delicious (especially the red pepper sauce OMG) and the cost was close to the one you mention, even if I am in another country, overall thank you so much for these!
Hey... add some teriyaki or soy sauce, some meat, a piece of Nori (dried seaweed, cheap and goes a long way) and a spoon (to taste) of peanut butter, nuke it, and you have a semi (aka, fake) Phad Thai. My mom was raised in Japan, and is now almost 82. I only use 1/3 to 1/2 of the spice packet. Save the rest to add to a generic can of chicken noodle soup? Best banana bread in the World? 2 slices of bread on a paper towel. Open and slice a banana onto it. Squishing it counts, lol. Best banana bread in town. No heating the oven, no washing dishes, didn't have to use soap except for the knife and to wash your hands. Great grab and go. Can make 2 or more? Of course. Also great w PB sandwich? Try it with apple slices. For a kick? Granny Smiths, plums, apricots, pear slices, frozen fruit pieces (bag) from the freezer section at the Dollar store. Was raised with 4 sibs. One of our favs? PB and dill pickle slices. Don't knock it until you've tried it. It's addicting. A can of beef soup/stew? Nuke a potato until done. Let cool. Heat the soup, and squish the potato into the bowl/pan. Was a single mom for many years, and can stretch that food budget like no tomorrow. Rice cooker? Buy a box of frozen fried rice w chicken/beef. Nuke it. Stir into the rice before cooking. (It already has the spices). Watch your measurement markers/lines on the inside of the rice cooker bowl. Can also cook the rice, then add/toss gently when it's done. Using a frozen box of Mexican rice and beans? Dollar store? Nuke the box per directions, put on a tortilla or two, top w whatever you have on hand per your preference (s cream, some cheese, diced green onions, slightly blackened yellow/white onions, some bell peppers for a smoky flavour, olives, some cilantro, a few dollops of salsa of your choice, etc?)... Mom always used to say QUIT/STOP PLAYING W YOUR FOOD, right? Sowwy, mom... we're adults now, and WE'RE PLAYING IN THE KITCHEN, WITH OUR FOOD! 🤗 ⚘ 🙏❤🙏 ⚘ 🤗 Hope this helps keep the tummy full. Can also google cheap/inexpensive food hacks. Healthy cheap food hacks, etc. Always remember... Play w your food, ok?
This is one of the best budget cooking videos ever. Seriously all the other videos are like "rice and beans" and your all like "nah we are gonna make some bomb ass food." Yall should make this a series :)
Could we have an episode where they do this but for vegan/veggie meals? Vegan food had a tendency to be spendie, and I would love to see it done on a budget ♥️

she's so likeable and explains everything so good and in a easy way! the fact that she made so much out of so little just shows how good of a chef she is!
For anyone confused about prices n servings. Here is your explanation: When they say serving they mean for one person. For example if they say $1.89 per serving for four people that would be times 4 But for one person it will be $1.89 : ) Hope u understand
@@weem7 I think the key is budgeting, so if you actually plan your meals out it's pretty realistic. You're gonna end up using the remaining ingredients for another meal ryt
@@weem7 Isn't it though? Live in Europe, so different cost of food, but I go grocery shopping twice a month and spend around 50-60 euros for the month. That doesn't mean the first meal I do cost 40 euros or something, since I use what's left over for later.
I haven’t liked a video in years but she made me really enjoy this video. The way she explains things is wonderful. If you’re reading this you are an amazing instructor. I wish the best for you
Private chefs usually work for clients who are really busy and need a homecooked meal/Throw a party and a nutritious one at that. I think it's great artists and private chefs can work their dream jobs cause ppl with money are willing to support their passion :D.
I am so impressed! If I had any money I'd ask you to come cook for me! I love making panna cotta. Will definitely be trying that recipe while my brother is here from California.
I mean my weekly food budget is just under £20 and they’re not student or boring meals they’re Delish so this doesn’t surprise me too much. But love the chef :)
"everything needs a little salt." God making me: "wait!! that was the salt?! not sugar? well too late now, dumped the whole jar in it so, wish her parents luck"
YES! No one who's ballin on a budget cares about the cost per serving! We want to know how much we would need to spend to buy every single one of these ingredients.
You misunderstood their pricing: the per-serving cost for the whole dinner was about $5 ($2ish for appetizer, $2ish for dinner, $1ish for dessert); since this feeds 4, the TOTAL cost for all 4 people was $20 - all those ingredients totaled up to that $20
Yeah.... These per serving costs always hide the fact that you have to pay a lot more to actually make the meal. Then if you don't know what to do with the leftovers, that's a lot of wasted food and money. There's a really good video from June from Delish (?) that actually does a good job showing how to make great meals over a week where she keeps using leftover food for later meals. Way more accurate in terms of food costs
I absolutely love her. She makes cooking seem extremely like easy. Especially with her explanations thst are easy to follow!!!! Great job, my daughter snd I give her an A+++
