When my 3 children were young we had so little money & non car owners, l used to take them on simple picnic's on weekends to local parks. We lived in the city but explored our local area and found new picnic areas that we didnt even know were even there. They loved it, looked so forward to it after a week at school stuck indoors. l just dont understand families spending their weekends in summer walking around over-crowed noisy shopping malls, being tempted to spend, when they could be in the fresh air. All my 3 grown up children still wont shop at weekends , they rather do late at night midweek shopping, and they take the grandchildren out for weekend walks or bike rides, what ever the weather. Now their new hobby is fishing with the grandsons.

I like growing lettuce (lollo biondi). My current addiction is sugar snap peas which are dear and have guilt airmiles, so Ive got a batch coming in the garden along with green beans. Being as OH is prediabetic and I’m type 2 we eat a lot of veg generally, but I’m not prejudiced against frozen. Would like to get better at growing tomatoes and I’m pants at growing spring onions. Lockdown and my OH’s retirement has made us a lot better at not wasting food Here we have a joint of beef called bread and butter joint. I buy a whole one. Cut 500g slices to make poor man’s steak and chips for 3, casseroles and curries, , and get two smallish joints for a total of 6 roast dinners which makes it v economical. It makes a lovely gravy. I’ve always loved your cooking stuff.

Lots of picnics for us in the summer. It’s the cheapest and best way I can think of to get us all out of the house for a little trip without spending any money. Sandwiches, tea, fruit and a little treat, there’s no way I’m going to waste £30 in a cafe. Our utilities bill went up to £225 this month, I have to really be extra careful with my budget. Thanks for the ideas Jane x

Those British prices are a joke. The French government capped the price rise at 4% and people in France are feeling the squeeze with high food prices and for gas or oil for their homes. People are getting new free heating air source heat pumps but they still have to wait for them to be sorted.

@@FrugalQueeninFrance it is a joke and it is immoral. I’m scared to put the heating on. We’ve managed (just about) to rearrange our budget to take the price rise in to account. I really worry about lower income households though. Any little tips you can think of to share with us would be appreciated. I’ve downshifted my groceries and toiletries as much as possible, I’m driving slower to use less fuel, I’m washing clothes less and on a shorter cycle. What else can I do?!

By doing this i know that all the food I have stored will be fresh and within date. Love your inspiring videos, thank you x

Thank you for this lovely video❤. I enjoyed it very much! Our eating changes when the vegetables in our garden starts to grow. Than we end up with the question "What will we eat" and ask us "What is in the garden to eat". My own garden "supermarket" opens in May with the first salade, early radish and lots of herbs. We grow every plant from seed in our home on the window shelfs. To buy all the young plants would be easier, of course, but so much expensive. And on top I love my garden and many of the seeds for the next year I get from my own plants. Our eating in summer time is much lighter than in winter, too. More salades insteads of casserolls.

During the warm weather I'm big on cold suppers and husband likes to grill/BBQ. I like to keep 2-3 salads in the fridge as my readymade side dishes. Winter time I use my Instant Pot a lot for hot meals and I do like to make a lot of soups...nice thick hearty ones or cream soups. Roast dinners are usually a weekend thing in the winter. A typical meal during our Canadian winter for us would be something like chili con carne over noodles or macaroni, or Toad In The Hole with onion gravy.

Summer for me unfortunately is busy season at work. It’s a time I need to be vigilant about meal prep or I’ll eat out from lack of time to cook. I am currently stocking up on freezer meals to get through without the need for restaurant meals. I often work 14-16 hr days and 2-3 weeks at a time without days off. Days off are generally spent preparing for the coming weeks. I long for summers with picnics and walks in the fresh air and envy your freedom. May through September are nightmare months for me but I do it so that in two years I can picnic too😊. I also try to have ingredients for super quick and thrifty meals on hand. Cheese for Welsh Rarebit, canned beans and bread for beans on toast or hummus, flatbread and tomatoes for something without cooking that I can eat before falling into bed. Those are my tasty last resort meals. 😊

In winter it's is soup for lunch, in summer cold soup or salads. As the weather has been very kind the last month or so we often eat on our balcony for lunch and dinner. On the go we take tea and cold water bottles with us and lunch from home. So no drinks at a café but picknick in the forest and at a lakeside ( is free entertainment) and this week we looked at an airport to see planes land and depart. 👌☀️

Once the weather finally warms up here I find that I eat much lighter. In the winter there's nothing better than a hearty hot meal but in the summer and spring I really like to eat salads and fruits. Also in the warmer weather a group of friends that live right near me will often get together to have a cookout with each person bringing something to contribute to the meal. These are so much fun and we have a really good time gathering to relax and chat and enjoy the nice weather. We all bring our dogs and they run and play in The yards and have a good time as well. Unfortunately we don't have a beach that we can go and have a picnic on but getting together is almost as nice.

Sorry, I'm a bit behind with watching and commenting (teen boy in middle of mocks). Love hearing about your life and also agree that your videos are really motivational. I find that as the weather warms up I continue to use my slow cooker. I know people associate it with soups and stews, but for me it's fantastic as I can switch on and then get outside in the garden for the day. Cooked a chicken in it yesterday and remaining meat to make into chicken pie this evening (son's request) and risotto tomorrow. We keep chickens so lots of quick, light egg dishes in the warmer weather as well.

In summer after a busy hot day when I don't want to cook, I make a tin can salad! A tin of chick peas, rinsed. A tin of corn kernels, rinsed. A bunch of baby spinach leaves. And a tin of sliced beetroot, including the juice. Season with pepper. This is enough to serve four people. If it's winter I will add boiled potatoes to make it warm. So quick and easy with so little preparation. I love your stream. I would have a picnic sitting on one of those boulders for a relaxing lunch. Love your dog!!

I really enjoy your food videos, always gives me some inspiration on what I could cook. We had mushroom stroganoff this week with some lentil pasta which turned out to be really tasty! Your video has just inspired me to make some mushroom soup this week. When the season changes in to summer we start to have more outdoor family gatherings we love a BBQ or a picnic. Boiled eggs are always a nice treat on a picnic aren’t they, or if I’m really feeling like cooking, then some home made scotch eggs perhaps!

I've mixed turnips with potatoes and mashed it all together, was quite tasty. You can also mix potatoes and cauliflower, if there's ever a time when you need to stretch things. In summertime, I make a cold pasta salad with tofu that's been marinated in soy sauce and chopped. It also has (frozen) peas, chopped onion, grated fresh ginger and a tahini dressing. I don't know what the price of tofu is now, but will be looking for it soon so we can have this, it's a favorite. Other frugal foods for summer are tomato and cheese pie, homemade baked beans in the crockpot, zucchini noodles with no-cook tomato, basil and garlic sauce, zucchini or corn fritters, veggie kabobs on the grill, cold rice salad with peas and toasted slivered almonds, fried tomato sandwiches with cream cheese and crumbled bacon filling, sausage stuffed zucchini, corn pie (with hardboiled eggs in it), roasted sausages with grapes, scrambled egg sandwiches on English muffins spread with cream cheese and pesto, Greek salad stuffed into pita bread, and many different salads. I use a lot of different dressing recipes to keep the salads interesting. I cut fresh ginger into chunks and freeze it. You can pull out however much you need and grate or mince it for recipes.

Hi Jane and Mike 🤗 We definitely change our foods as the weather gets hot - it seems we only have two seasons now here in Canada - Cold Winter and Hot Summer!LOL I eat salad every day for lunch but I will change out the vegetables as the seasons change. I also eat more berries in the warmer weather. My partner eats meat so he will barbecue more often over the next few months. We Love having picnics and will always bring our own food and drink for our epic bike rides. We also like taking a drive to a different park or waterfront destination to have a picnic. Sometimes we bring our little camp stove which is quite small but nice to boil water and make some hot tea/coffee to have with a sandwich and some homemade cakes. Looking forward to Sunday's video 🥰

Some lovely meals there Jane using what you have, we eat lighter meals and I do a few cook extra meals. We have lo beef from the weekend and I did another meal with boiled new potatoes and veg my daughter gave me the lo gravy too. I cooked extra new potatoes and we had them the following evening sliced and pan fried with baked beans and fried egg. I like to plan ahead and save on the energy and double cooking certainly helps out. We will be going away again shortly on another £29 4 night static caravan holiday on the coast, all our food will be taken from home and we have picnic lunches with the flask, it all helps to keep the costs down. Because we don’t travel far if we cut back on using the car we only have to add a little extra to our £50 petrol budget and I do online surveys to get this money and put it into the holiday fund. Take care and I can’t wait to see where you went ……… Love Wendy ♥️💋

When the weather changes normally look for lighter recipes to make like quiche, burgers wraps with salad , light soups like butternut squash and red pepper , and if do go out take drinks sandwich fruit etc I do love your vlogs and the food you cook , I do try to cut down on grocery shopping and woukd be easier if just me and hubby but have a fussy 20 something year old living at home , so what I thought we would look through recipes together and luck out what she likes and adapt them frugally

I always enjoy your cooking videos. The mushroom soup looked divine! I always try to batch cook and have leftovers for quick meals during the warm weather months because I'm usually working outside until dark and too tired to cook after I come in and clean up. We do tend to eat more salads and lighter meals. Take care!

Lovely as ever, thank you x I actually find it harder to plan meals in Summer, my husband is not a fan of salads at all. Winter is definitely easier for me, stews, pies, any hot meal really!

I agree it is cheaper to eat in winter.Stews, curries, risotto, pies all with loads of veg and lentils and a little meat. Also these usually taste better on day 2 and also freeze and reheat well. Let’s face it left over salad is not very interesting is it. Some lovely food ideas there. I will definitely be trying the cauliflower mash I already do carrot, swede, parsnip, potato mash so cauliflower and I suppose broccoli mash would be just as nice. I also love a picnic lunch even if it’s only a picnic in the garden it just seems nicer eaten outside or in the car really summery even on a cool windy day(car picnic).
