Today I meal prepped a variety of meals to donate to a senior in my community. These are fully cooked, single serve, microwavable meals. I get to share the recipes and they get meals for free, it's a win/win situation! Hoping this grows into something more.
Meal prep containers: amzn.to/3UnY9Yl
Breakfast: Meat & Cheese Omelet in a Bowl (IHOP inspired)
Scrambled eggs topped with diced ham, bacon, peppers, onions, hashbrowns, queso blanco, and triple cheddar blend
Lunch: Italian Pasta Salad
Recipe link: pinchofyum.com/pasta-salad
Rotini pasta with cherry tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, salami, red onion, kalamata olives tossed in a sun-dried tomato vinaigrette
Dinner: Aussie Chicken (outback inspired)
Chunks of chicken thighs tossed in a honey mustard sauce, topped with colby jack cheese and bacon. Served with creamy mashed potatoes and roasted broccoli on the side.

Thank you for the offer of donations, it is very generous of you! I am not in need of donations to be able to provide this, I get to make the video sharing the process and she gets free meals. In that way it’s entirely self sustaining so your support is all I need ❤

How great! I'm a single, living alone, and I love to bake, but baking for one is really hard, and there's only so much freezer space a single guy can take up with desserts, so during lockdown, I went on my town's Buy Nothing group and offered slices of cake, bags of cookies, muffins, loaves of bread, etc. It was great, and a nice way to (safely distanced) meet some of the people in my community.

This is such a lovely idea! Stories of content creation creating a ton of waste are so common -- particularly PR packages sent to influencers who maybe unbox them and never touch them again. It's so nice to see such a sustainable way to create content while also helping someone in need.

@DollarTreeDinners 2 месяца назад

Thank you for seeing the vision! I wanted a way to cook more and share more recipes but there’s only so much I can make without creating waste. This felt like a win win, I can donate the meals and share the recipes, and I can hopefully inspire others who might want to do the same.

Senior citizens with food insecurities would be a great idea. I work for my local senior center, and we serve them a free lunch by using a federally funded government program. We feed over 150-180 seniors in our area in 4 days. We are a small center, but so many need to find more food resources. For some of them, the meal that we provide for them is their only meal of the day.

@AskAgainL8ter 2 месяца назад

My Aunt goes to her senior center for lunch every day, it’s the only meal she eats because now that her family is gone, she doesn’t cook for herself. She can socialize and get a decent meal. I’m so glad programs like that exist.

@@TobywedinikkiI am sorry to hear that. In NYC, we have meals on wheels. Depending on your income level, you will be able to get prepared meals several times a week. You can also freeze these meals if you cannot eat it all. A lot of church / senior centers will do this too. Please try to look into this. You deserve to retire and live a reasonable life.

@amandagilds681 2 месяца назад

I have become the caretaker for my step-grandfather, and he's tricky because I have to watch how hard something is to chew. He's lost a lot of weight due to cancer so I don't think it's false teeth stay in as well as I used to😂 But don't be surprised if they accidentally throw away your containers, they forget. I started buying cheap Dollar tree ones when I take him meals because they weren't as precious as these to me. But he's honestly happier having his oatmeal that the neighbor helps I'll make in the morning, and he makes sandwiches for himself the rest of the day. I tried doing microwave meals but he just forgets to look in the freezer. So I keep on stocked up on egg salad, chicken salad and turkey. I'm so happy you were able to help someone, it does make you feel good because it's something you enjoy, cooking, and someone else is getting a good benefit out of it!

@DollarTreeDinners 2 месяца назад

Thank you for finding someone to do this for. Since the pandemic, I/ my family have been helping many different people. I have people who get sugar-free desserts, and some just need help with getting food pantry pick-ups. But I have a few seniors that I cook for a few times a week. I have only 3 in my family, husband , son, and myself. So I always had leftovers. I bought 32oz Mason jars from Walmart, I cook bean, soups, mild chili, chicken and dumplings, rice , and noodles in very convenient. I love buying some of those plates in square so I could pk 2 ears of corn . I buy snack bags to pk salads with croutons, tomatoes, cheese, and meats chunks. I am very proud of you for doing this ❤️.

I think you might be interested in a novel/cookbook from the 1880s called Ten Dollars Enough. It's about a young woman setting out to keep house on a budget, and it talks about what she buys each week and how she uses each ingredient. Cooking and housekeeping have changed a lot, but I think her goals are similar to yours--making sure the meals she makes are both enjoyable and inexpensive. She also makes food for some neighbors who need a hand, which is why I though of it. It's by Catherine Owen and it's long out of copyright, so it's easy to read for free online.

You are such a kind person for providing all these meals. I think a cold meal like pasta salad is a great option for lunch. Another lunch suggestion is to make a her a hearty soup like minestrone - any veggies you have, plus a can of tomatoes, a can of beans and some cooked pasta in a broth. If you want to donate frozen food to a food-bank, I recommend getting a vac-pack machine like a food saver as it keeps the food in better condition. If you were wanting to produce a meal that has several different elements, you could vacpack each one separately, and then put them in one of your meal containers to keep each one separate. Then the recipient can open the vacpacks, put them in the meal container and microwave them.

I love that you are doing this. Twice a year I make meals for 20 for a Meals on Wheels to Seniors who are home bound. What a great ministry. Your kindness is appreciated more than you know. We also make shelf stable meals in 2 gallon ziploc bags for those who are able to cook but cannot get out to a store.

I love that! Do you have any favorite meals that you make for meals on wheels?

@@DollarTreeDinnersMy mom received Meals on Wheels for a time before she passed away. She really appreciated the extras- fresh fruit, juice, fruit cups, milk…. Sometimes she was offered protein shakes.

I absolutely love this! I volunteer twice a month for an international group called Lasagna Love where we make lasagnas for local families. The ravioli lasagna you made in one of your videos is a great option for this. :)

This is amazing! I used to volunteer cooking/driving for meals on wheels. They usually have an abundance of volunteers, though. This one-on-one meal service is something I'd love to get back into, so thank you for being your amazing self, and for the inspiration!

You are awesome, Honey. I am 76 and worry a lot about our seniors in this country. Things are quite bad what with illness, inflation, the huge medical crisis, etc., etc. Our older folks deserve help and good and 'REAL' food is a start and sooo appreciated!!! I hope this becomes a huge trend starting with you and your peers. Thank you so much and I pray God blesses you richly spiritually and with the material needs for your endeavor. Hope to hear how this going for you as time goes on. Tfs

Absolutely love the gift of giving meals to someone in need! Such a precious blessing! As someone who has had multiple foot surgeries over last few years and being unable to bear weight or stand most of that time, I am super grateful for friends & family bringing me take out & I use air fryer a lot but there is nothing like a real home cooked meal!

You are a Godsend from whomever receives your yummy meals. You have a kind heart and you are beautiful inside and out. I would love to see the look on her face when she eats them. This is a blessing for her. Thank you Rebecca and God Bless. Hugs, Rebekah

I want to do this! I live alone but I still love to cook and bake. I’ll be 64 next month so I guess I’m considered a senior as well. I don’t feel like one though. I have a lot of pep in my step left and I’m all about contributing to the community. Great idea and you’re an amazing woman❤

This is very generous of you! I guess it works out as you will benefit from being able to produce the video. A great way to avoid waste and bless someone!

Rebecca, you are wonderful! I discovered you on Easter Sunday 2024 and now I watch you everyday. Im a subscriber. It's just me now, but there was a time when I made breakfast, lunch & dinner for a "small army" everyday. 😃
