The first thing I learned to cook as a young bride of 17, over 40 years ago, was Poor Man’s stroganoff but I used hamburger. The early 80’s was such a difficult time financially speaking in the Pacific Northwest. Money was tight and these poor man meals certainly helped!
Little dude still has the price sticker on the front of his shirt😂😂. I love kids!!! You’ve got a whole beautiful bunch of taste testers!! I miss my kids and grandkids being little!! Although they were a bit harder to please with food back then. Now that they’ve gotten older they’ll eat pretty much anything 😂
Great ideas! My mom used to make cream of chicken soup with half the can of water! Then she put it on buttered toast ! She made it for breakfast ! It’s still my favorite breakfast !
Hi. Great recipes. In your recipe for the beans you didn’t mention in the description box the amount of beans you used for the recipe and what kind of beans? Thx
... I always keep canned Chicken on hand, which ever kind you like . ( there's lots of brands/ varieties) ...if you drain it, and sauté that up in sone butter or olive oil in a skillet, you can use it in place of chix pieces or other cooked chix. Also, I do buy 2 rotisserie chixs' at Sans Club, $4.99 ea. These are taken apart ,so that I can freeze portions for certain meals that will be made. I wrap the pieces in either Freezer paper or Aluminum foil, then place in a Freezer Baggie or Airtight container. I also shred some of the chix before freezing that ( separately) as it makes easy work of Chix salad sandwiches, or shredded chix Enchiladas, burritos, tacos, etc. One of the first things I learned to make was biscuits and gravy, and we used the gravy even over scrambled eggs . ( I prefer just plain gravy, made with bacon drippings, but every so often I'll make it with ground sausage. )
We used to make that stroganoff on bread all the time but we call it SOS (sh*t on a shingle) lol I actually loved it and it was and is still one of my fav things to eat. My mom used to laugh at me cause I would use cream corn and put some butter n salt n pepper and use some buttered toast and put the cream corn over it and it was so yummy I still do it as a snack one in a while. I think anything on bread is good lol
OK I'll be repeating that I grew up calling this SOS, but there were a variety of ways to make it: sausage, hamburger, leftover shredded up roast beef/pork, etc. Then we'd have it over toast, biscuits, rice, mashed potatoes, heck we even had it over leftover stuffing before. Sooo many ways to make this. Vegetarian is mainly uses vegetable but does have animal byproducts like eggs, cheese, milk, etc. Vegan means absolutely no animal meat or byproducts are used. My Aunt Cathy is Pescatarian which means she's a vegetarian who only eats fish & seafood.
You gave the ingredients list for bread but no directions. Do you have a video for it? I didn't see it in the play list. I'm still searching for the best bread recipes. Yours may be the one. Blessings to you and your family ❤
I have a great 4 ingredient budget meal that you can buy at Aldi or any other store iffin ya like Mexican that i can share if you want to try it. My grandpa always made it and it is soooooo easy. Just let me know if your interested. And we aren't even Mexican we all are Italian but its great and you only dirty 1 bowl, 1 spoon, and 1 9×13 baking dish. We serve it on fine china aka i wish i was Dixie paper plates and eat it w plastic silverware. With my health dishes are hard for me
Would love to see a video of what you use the flavored syrups for. Any recipes or blends you like would be helpful. Trying to see if they are worth the money?
I didn't know these recipes were considered poor food. I guess my parents were hard up. I totally forgot about the mixed veggies, tomato, and mashed taters on top!! Childhood trauma, I guess 😉 For real, though, these are great ideas we should all have in our back pocket
My grandmother used to make beef stroganoff with leftover roast and she used her homemade egg noodles to turn it into an alfredo-like dish. Now, when I do a round roast for Sunday, I follow up the entire week with French Dips, then Cheesesteaks, then beef & pepper stroganoff. I can stretch a 2 lb roast to the end of the week for my family of 3 and no one says "Beef again!?!"
I made it as a young wife, hubby told me it was called sos casserole hamburger flour grease roux mix milk cook to thicken. Soupy pour over canned biscuits. Back then canned biscuits were around 10 cents no soup lots of pepper brings back yummy memories enjoyed your video, first time viewer
These look great nutritionally. I am a semi-vegetarian who has studied nutrition for 45 yrs. plos. You are doing a great job! I make the Cottage pie by adding a can of rinsed and drained lentils, plus I put the cheese between the veg and the potatoes. The cheese flavors the veg that way.
Cauliflower cheese with crusty bread or a baguette is nice just on its own and filling. Got extra money add bacon or gammon to it and/Brocolli. I could live off it! That’s how I knew I was pregnant with my son. I had been looking forward to having it for dinner and the smell of it made me throw up. Sat in front of my parents at 18 trying not to heave lol.
