Today for lunch I made egg salad and wanted a sandwich but I didn’t have any slices of bread. I did have an English muffin in the freezer. I thawed it split it and had open face sandwiches. The different texture of the muffin really added to the meal. I served them with dill pickles adding an apple for desert. For supper I am having left over green beans (free from a friends garden) and mushroom soup casserole with frozen fish fillets and sliced tomatoes. Nothing goes to waste in my kitchen. I am a retired widow living debt and mortgage free on a small pension.

I've did really well this summer by not eating fast food/take out. It has saved me so much money. Now that school is back in I am taking lunch daily and that is nice. My NEXT challenge is to move further away from processed foods. Step one...no more meals that start in a box. :) I started my grocery list earlier and I am excited for this next step. I will save even more money AND will eat healthier. I have found success so far, because I am taking things one step at a time. :) Have a great week!

Hi from TN. When ever I cook meat. I drain the juice to freeze. I use the fat that comes to the top of the container to cook with. Chicken fat: soup, sauces, eggs Beef: gravies, sauces, soups Bacon & sausages: almost anything. When I need a fat or oil to saute onions, peppers, celery, ect. I just use the fat that will complement the dish. Thank you so much for all of your tips. God Bless, Rhonda 💚👩🏼‍🌾💚 God Bless

Rhonda, thanks for sharing your tips!! God Bless you as well!

When ever you speak of zero food waste I think of my favorite book ever. "The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society" You must read it Emmy, it's a WWII story and they make pies out of potato peelings. Wonderful wonderful book. This was just a super video as always and I love your Pyrex dish.

@r.p.9829 Год назад

@RandomizedLife822 Год назад

That sounds interesting. It reminds me of the children’s book, “Stone Soup.” I think of that book every time I toss vegetable scraps into my freezer bag.

@sandrabryan9106 Год назад

@d.parisi Год назад

Great haul! I like that you support family owned stores, veggie stands, etc. Salad and soups pretty much cover my zero food waste meals. I made carrot salad yesterday. One thing I started doing a few years ago was to put my fruits on the top shelf in my refrigerator and in the fruit crisper I put cheese, lunch meat, bacon and things like that. That way the fruit never gets forgotten (or hidden) in the drawer and goes to waste. 😊

@cltinturkey Год назад

Smart! I do the same and even keep all the unused cut up veg in little glass bowls. That way I use every bit and add them to tortillas, salads, burritos, etc.

@FrugalMoneySaver Год назад

Yes, soups definitely are our go to as well!

I scored at a thrift store this week. Bought a beautiful, Robin egg blue Singer Sewing Machine for $10. It's from the 60's and works beautifully. It took me about 30 minutes to clean it up and get it oiled up. Already have some sewing projects in mind to do.

@FrugalMoneySaver Год назад

@katherinejackman4190 Год назад

I’ve been using up whatever fruit needs to be eaten soon by making fruit crumble. I make the crumble topping using my grandmother’s formula: twice as much flour as sugar and butter. So if you want to use 1/2 cup of flour, use 1/4 cup each of sugar and butter. It’s customizable 😊. I just rub the ingredients with my fingers until it forms into crumbles. Then use it to top the fruit and bake. Time depends on the amount, but generally about 45 minutes at 350’

@FrugalMoneySaver Год назад

Sounds great! Thank you so much for sharing I have some blueberries I can use!

My veggie and fruit drawers are empty. We have been making salads, wraps and crockpot meals using every single fresh ingredient and working our way through the pantry and freezer stock. We needed to buy a wheelchair accessible van. We found a good used 2010 but we had to take out a loan to get it. We don’t normally pay any interest on anything but this was no longer an option. We needed this vehicle. We have a plan in place to pay it off as quickly as possible. Thank you for all the great tips and hints. I love your channel!!

Thank you Emmy and Paul! To answer your question, I have been loving my zero food waste journey and doing things like egg shells to be ground for my plants, veggie scraps I keep in a bag in the freezer to make stock with each week, and last week I made stuffed green peppers (they were on sale for 99 cents a pound) and I only needed a little bit of the tomato paste, so I portioned the rest of the can into plastic wrap portions to put in the freezer for later use. Back in the day I would've tossed what I didn't need! When my bag of carrots are almost done, I have been pickling them as well which has been a nice treat.

@FrugalMoneySaver Год назад

Wonderful! Such great savings!

@clairejordan8950 Год назад

I look for lemons on sale because they have gotten very expensive, but we love the taste of fresh lemon. If I find a bag of lemons on sale for a good price, I'll use 1-2 fresh but will freeze the juice from the rest in small ice cube trays, and I freeze the zest as well. Then when I need lemon juice and zest for a recipe, I can use my stash in the freezer. I do the same for limes. My husband will take a cube out once in a while for his unsweet tea. I also freeze pesto in the ice cube trays as well -- I make it from my fresh basil in my container garden and take out 1-2 cubes for recipes all winter. It is great when added to the Italian Vegetable Soup and a great way to get the taste of pesto in the winter -- with no preservatives! Finally, I save the clean odds and ends of vegetables (organic) like odd-shaped ends of carrots, celery, onions, tomatoes, etc. and freeze them to make my own vegetable broth (with filtered water) when I have a full bag. Makes a good base for soup.

I live in southern California and would visit my brother and sister-in-law in Upstate New York every autumn. I just loved it there. One visit, they took me along on a senior bus tour that took us to Lancaster, PA. I had a blast! I was bowled over by the beautiful canned produce offered in the shops - stack and stacks - row after row. Shopping in Intercourse, PA is a fun experience, with one unique shop after another: unusual gifts, handmade crafts, Amish quilts, furniture, foods, & more. I'm so glad I had that experience. It was the first time I tasted mango and pineapple salsa! Wow!

I’ve been diligently working towards zero food waste, which can be a challenge as a single ( so many leftovers!). I had leftover pulled pork from tacos. Not enough to freeze and I was tired of tacos. This morning I added it to the crockpot with a can of diced tomatoes, and 3 different kinds of canned beans, and the usual spices. I served it in a bowl with leftover “Spanish rice”, grated cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and some salad topping tortilla strips I unearthed in the pantry. The leftovers will be easy to freeze in one cup increments for those times I don’t feel like cooking. I’m also freezing the leftover rice to use in a chicken and rice casserole next week. Oh, and I’ve got two jars of sweet pickle juice I’m trying to figure out what to do with….maybe a marinade, or to make a salad dressing. I’m wondering if I can freeze it in ice cube trays for later use…

Another great video Emmy. Can't wait to see the Christmas star after Paul is finished with it. God has blessed us with free food to store for the winter. We have been gifted with blueberries, raspberries and corn which we have frozen. You should have seen how messy the kitchen was when we were doing corn! We also went to several yard sales (we live in Ohio near where Mrs. Miller's noodles are made) . Several of the sales were Amish. The Amish around here usually have several boxes of free items, good items. I got brand new markers and stickers for my grandkids, new book marks for gifts, and some cucumbers! What a blessing!

Zero food waste... We don't use our automatic ice maker...if you have ever had water pouring out the front of your refrigerator because a part broke then you will know why we don't use those features...anyway..there is a nice drawer that comes with the ice maker in the freezer and I line it with parchment paper and freeze little portions of berries, bananas, any fruit that we didn't finish and would otherwise go bad ... once frozen I just store the fruit in a gallon size Ziploc bag and can use it for a tasty fruit cocktail, add it to muffins, or simply snack on it while watching my favorite TV program.. thank you for keeping us motivated...many blessings to you all

I learned to make shrimp gumbo this year. So later I improvised a similar roux and just used a bit of the andouille sausage. No shrimp. Added bits of what I had. I think asparagus. Good as a soup or over rice, which I did with the little bit left. I am learning more than ever (at age 63) that if you have good ingredients, almost any combination is yummy. Now I am addicted to home cooking so much that I can’t enjoy premade or fast food much. You two inspire me and make it even more fun to try to live on a low fixed income. 🤗 I love your finds in PA.

Everyone was tempted by the tantalizing smells and I think everyone left the theater ravenously hungry. This video is like that. Fresh and beautiful fruits and vegetables to tempt us. I just used some brown rice and all the veg from my garden to make a Buddha Bowl. That's a bit of everything good packed with variety, different tastes, and fresh herbs. So satisfying!

I don't mean how to freeze them but how to store them in the fridge for use within a week. Lettuce always turn orange, green beans go limp, tomatoes shrivel up, etc etc. Thank you in advance. Lisa in San Diego ❤ love your channel & of course, sweet dixie.

@FrugalMoneySaver Год назад

@debbiesavage7107 Год назад

Take everything out of the plastic bags. Use your crisper drawer, it works. I would clean the beans right away and put into a clean baggie. Put tomatoes on the windowsill to remind you to use them. Keep them out of the fridge until you slice them. For lettuce, i clean it and put it into a cloth bag in the crisper drawer. That’s IF it’s head lettuce. For leaf lettuce, i put it apart, wash it, pat dry and use a large(ish) plastic container to store in. I put a layer of paper towel on the bottom and top of the lettuce to help absorb some of the moisture but still keep it crisp. I’m sure there are other methods but this is what i do.

Next time your in Lancaster, especially near Singing Springs in Quarryville, I would love to come and meet you both. Have you ever thought about hosting a meet and greet in a nearby park when you travel? If your ever interested in trying something like that in Lancaster area, let me know as I would be glad to work with you on setting it up. Enjoy your weekend 😊

Of course soups and stews. I make broth with veggie scraps and bones from chicken and beef. Yum! I also love to make beans and rice with leftover meat in it. It is a great way to use up leftover pork or beef roast. I also use leftovers to make a quick fried rice!

I keep forgetting to tell you thank you for a couple past recipes. The first one is the homemade hamburger helper recipe. Omg I love this, and I usually don’t like casserole type things, and I hate hamburger helper, but my Dh and i both really like that recipe. I make it once or twice a month. The other one is the sweet and spicy wings. First we used wings and both them so much that we tried thighs and legs. They were fabulous, and are now in my regular rotation. So thanks again for two of our new favorite meals! It’s rare that Dh and I both like the same things, but we did with these.

I love to hear that Diane! Thanks so much for the encouragement.

We are buried in veggies right now. We have frozen up beans and beets and have canned dilly beans and pickled beets. We use up extra veggies in stir fries frequently.

Okay so you motivated me to make another batch of pickles. I'm not going to lie I am sick of cukes. I am up to 21 quarts. Soon to be 28. Then on to salsa.

@FrugalMoneySaver Год назад

WOW! That's a lot of pickles lol!

@kaylamuldoon397 Год назад

I was given some unripe white peaches that had cold damage. To use them I cooked them on the stove top until soft and used them on top of a homemade bisquick coffee cake and I used a couple of packets of instant flavored oatmeal on top with a quarter cup of margarine. Came out awesome and kids and hubby approved.

YAY! So creative Kayla!

@melma5910 Год назад

I have some garden tomatoes and red peppers (I may even have an onion) that I need to use, this weekend. I think I will roast add some, from the garden, sweet basil then puree. I freeze in smaller amounts to add to all kinds of dishes. I also have some celery I will dehydrate. It is a bit cooler this weekend so I am not worried about over heating the house.

We have been on vacation in Florida, with all the odds and ends of left overs, we use the next day for lunch or snacks. We are all packed up and leaving Sunday for our adventure home to Massachusetts. We plan on stopping at some bulk stores in Amish country. So looking forward to stopping in our travels. Thank you for the insight to some of the stores you went to. Love watching your videos. Thank you!

@laurakuehlke1320 Год назад

That stew looked amazing! One thing we do regularly is when we have chicken (usually on Mondays), the leftovers are used in quesadillas and/or as a topping on homemade pizza later in the week. Anything that isn't used is cut and frozen so it's not wasted.

@FrugalMoneySaver Год назад

Great idea!! Saves so much when you cook like that!

@phyltorkelsonp9268 Год назад

Yum! Your vegetable soup looks so delicious! One thing I did this week to use up some miscellaneous bits of food was to take some cooked and chopped chicken meat, added some diced cucumber, diced celery, diced tomato, and mixed it all together with a couple big spoonfuls of French onion dip. Then spread the mixture out on a couple big tortillas, rolled them up and cut in half. Sort of like a chicken salad wrap. Please don’t ask me the measurements, cuz I have no clue, I was just throwing stuff in there, 🤣. Was quite tasty!!!

I made home grated cauliflower rice with fresh parsley yesterday, I have leftovers don't feel like eating the same meal today and protein is finished. So I will beat 2 egg and some flour trough the cauliflower rice and bake ricepancakes/rosti to eat with leftover carrot soup,. Might use some grated cheese in the mixture as well. Hand full of small chopped nuts can make it extra filling.

@@FrugalMoneySaver I made it, with some fine oatmeal and a tiny bit of flour, let it set for 10 min. Put oil in a frying pan, drop a thin layer spread it even. Bake a med heat for 2-3 min at bot side. They become firm and rice/ thicker because of the egg

I am trying to use up the oatmeal I have in the house. Made a big batch of no bake cookies to take to a family reunion. While making them I thought it might be neat to eliminate the peanut butter and as mint extract at Christmas time. I used up a lot of odds and ends before going on vacation a few weeks ago. No nasty looking surprises in the fridge when I got home!!

Love your blackberry sauce! I do this with many different kinds of fruit. Sometimes I use fresh fruit , sometimes frozen. My favourites are peaches and strawberries. The fruit sauce, served warm (not hot) in a nice dessert bowl, over a scoop or two of even the cheapest vanilla ice cream, makes a restaurant-fancy and delicious light dessert!

@LauraMacMillan-cp9yk Год назад

I meant to mention: only a tablespoon or two of fruit sauce is needed to spoon over the top of the ice cream.

I am trying to loose weight; so i gut up cucumbers and sliced radises and added mccormicks grilled spice and sprinkled spice and tossed together. Fantastic snack between meals so you don't have junk food. Thanks for super video.
