I actually really appreciate that Ethan goes by a single shopping list rather than doing what most channels do and dividing the price into individual amounts of an ingredient. Like sure: I might use half an onion for a recipe, but I’m still paying for the whole onion. I don’t have a big freezer so saving ingredients, especially things like chicken thighs, is tricky, so knowing how much I’m gonna have to spend with basically nothing already in, or without dividing down the recipe cost, is really helpful.

@MichaelAlthauser Год назад

Chicken thighs freeze very well, for what it's worth. I sometimes get a full tray and prep them by deboning, then freeze any extras in freezer bags for the next time I need them.

@jackwilliamtaylor5656 Год назад

@@MichaelAlthauser oooh that’s a good shout! I know they freeze well but I never thought to debone and bag them rather than try and cram in another Tupperware of bone-in thighs (seriously, that’s how tight space is in the freezer 😅) I’ll try that, thanks!

@darylbiegtrucke4456 Год назад

You mean you dont bring a tablespoon and a teaspoon to the store and weight it on a scale, write down 5 cents, and then bring that teaspoon of salt to the cashier?

@nathanshackelford7812 Год назад

I mostly disagree with this. For things like oil/seasonings/flour/butter that go in almost every recipe, these are kitchen staples that any cook should have so the price should be divided as most of the RU-vid food creators do. You are gonna buy those ingredients again each time you run out if you cook even a few times a week, so why not divide by the individual portion cost. For the meat, it should be what you actually have to pay but a good store will have meats like beef and chicken available in many different sizes so you can often get individual portions. Onions are priced by the pound, so if they call for half an onion, just find a really small whole white or yellow onion and then you are only paying for what you actually use and the individual price they show will align. Also, you likely won't be shopping at same stores as the content creators, so prices aren't the same anyway.

@himynameisdavenicetomeetyou Год назад

@@darylbiegtrucke4456 jokes aside that is basically exactly what I do for some of the more exotic/premium spices that I don't use everyday. Sure, salt doesn't make that list, but if I want something like bessobela for a particular dish, I do weigh it out and only buy what I need.

I think Josh's method of pricing makes more sense when you're talking about individual food items. You're comparing 1 burrito to 1 burrito, not 1 burrito to an entire pantry worth of ingredients to make said burrito. I think weighing out how much he uses in each burrito and telling us how many burritos he can make with all the stuff he bought would make more sense

@velvetypotato711 Месяц назад

You can easily go under budget on this if you simply shop at Walmart. All his ingredients are either top shelf brand or artisanal from a Mexican store. There is no reason to spend that much on cheese if budget is truly a deal breaker. Even the Walmart brand pinto beans are going to be cheaper than Goya beans. Buying those two from Walmart would have saved $3.04 alone

Since our daughter grew to love guacamole there always was a fight for it - never enough! So I streched it with a few spoonfuls of any joghurt we had open, even 1,8 fat does it! My family now is used to a guacamole with low fat yoghurt and some finely cubed cherry tomatoes. I do the guacamole, if I decided there should be peppers or gherkins in it, enjoy it or buy/do your own! On holiday in Sweden I found a Bulgour Mix - 80% Bulgour/20% Quinoa - and introduced that mixture to our menue. Have you thought of adding Quinoa or sprouts as a filler to your burritos?

@majoroldladyakamom6948 Год назад

You are so spot on. Been doing that for decades. 👍 Great on baked potatoes, in smoothies, and adding a big dollop to cold/ice water, adding to fruit or chicken or tuna salad, etc. Great for your digestive tract, as well. Far healthier than sour cream. Less fat and cholesterol.

@zito88 Год назад

Thanks for the inspiration Ethan! My order is a steak burrito bowl with guac and chips to eat it with, costs me $17 at Chipotle. I made homemade guac, homemade chips, spicy chipotle steak, cilantro and lime brown rice, pinto beans, salsa verde, and cheese. Cost me $9 per bowl including the chips.

@jasonclark1149 Год назад

Instead of plopping all that lettuce and then drizzling more guac sauce, try tossing all the lettuce in a big bowl with the sauce to coat it all. Like you would dress a salad.

One of my negative critiques for most youtube cooking videos is their lack of scalability. I have a large family, and most *fast* or *cheap* cooking hacks just don't scale well to meals for 6 or 8 people. Just the fact that searing meat without crowding a pan takes 3x longer, even when making something simple like stew is often overlooked. This video does a better job than most, your shopping list is easily scalable to making more burritos.

Theres something straightforward about this video that really elevates it above the normal youtube cook things. The price on the groceries being just "hey i payed 33 for this, you'll have some stuff that you can use for other stuff but thats the ticket at the register" is a consideration for people going to cook these burritos themselves. Same goes for the end review; theres no theatrics, rapid camera cuts or fake moans of culinary appreciation. "The chicken was nice here, next time I'll add cilantro" sounds like something I've said after trying a recipe out. I think this is a recipe to make, and not a recipe to idly marvel at while you infinitely scroll youtube. Mediocre cooking that you do is hundred times better than imagining michelin star chef prepared meals that won't leave your screen.

Was wondering if you would throw in comparable weight/heft of the burrito as well as the calorie and other nutrient information - and you did! This is something a lot of people miss out doing on videos like this, and you explain the difference. Very nice. Thank you. :)

it holds it together if the meat is saucy. Otherwise, when you bite it the fillings decide to jailbreak.

@jamescanjuggle Год назад

i like a balanced rice/bean ratio, they have to equal each other out otherwise its too many carbs

@0713mas 9 месяцев назад

Great idea! I marinated the chicken in the sauce overnight crockpotted and shredded the chicken breast, and it stayed moist, I used low carb wraps instead and just put slices of jalapeño, avocado and cilantro with a little fat-free mexi-cheese and dollop of fat free Greek yogurt in place of sour creame. Basically, it cuts the calories in half again, depending on how much you stuff in the burrito shell. Ty

Hey Ethan for leftovers would you recommend pre-constructing all of the burritos and then storing them? Or storing all of the pre-cooked components, heating them up individually and constructing on the spot?

@jonashulse5883 Год назад

I have no idea what he would do, but personally I would keep the ingredients separate until I want to make a burrito. Just feels right to me haha

@PinkRose0910 Год назад

Common sense says keep the ingredients separated. Otherwise you wind up with soggy lettuce. Also frying the tortilla in a pan gives it more flavor.

@lamemechose7072 Год назад

I use my own recipes, but I’m experienced at prepping burrito ingredients for dinners. I make/wash & prep the rice, protein, veg, & toppings ahead of time, then store then all separately. I portion out my rice in a bowl, microwave it until just warm (repeat this after e dry addition), then add protein, veggies, & cheese (cheese should be soft & melty but not fully melted). Nuke a tortilla for 10-15sec, then QUICKLY add the filling and fold closed. I sear mine in a bit of oil on both sides. Serve with sour cream/salsa/guacamole on side. Wrap in foil for transit if needed. I can have a seared burrito on a plate in 10 minutes if that my only task, 20 if I’m doing unrelated things & get distracted. The rice and protein can be frozen, but I don’t recommend freezing veggies except maybe corn (just buy it frozen & mix into cooked & already-cooked rice before portioning & freezing).

@ellenchavez2043 9 месяцев назад

My son and I made the Chipotle bowl with brown rice. We made a black bean-corn salsa and sauteed steak with peppers and onions. It cost us less than $10 as we had most of the ingredients in our larger: beans, frozen corn, fresh produce, 1 pound of thin sliced flank steak. It was healthy, delicious and we got generous portions. We were able to control salt and fat. We bought a tub of guacamole from Jewel Foods, which is really great.

@lexibreault5235 Год назад

Such a great video! As someone who has worked at Chipitle our chicken is good but nothing special from what I know the only seasoning is just salt, cooked with lost of oil, and 6 min on each side but yours looks amazing. It can be stressful to ask for an alteration but it's ok! Lots of people ask for no rice or no beans. Plus I think if you want guac get it from the store and add it to bites rather than getting it in the burrito because it's way overpriced! It's realy simple too if you want to make it yourself avacodaos, 2.5 parts red onion, 2.5 part cilantro, 1 part jalapenos, 0.5 part citrus (I think just lime and lemon), and some salt. The pockets of food thing is a problem, I've had to train 3 people and I always tell them to evenly spread the food through out but in the end we don't have the time to make it perfect and it just kinda happens. Especially with sauces! Thanks for the great video :)
