Brooke oh I thoroughly enjoyed watching what you made with the $5 gift card I sent you. It really looked delicious. I am making this for my husband and I tomorrow. I'm was scared for y'all being out in this weather with all that snow all over the roads. I'm glad y'all made it there safely and back home safely. You got an A+++ from me. You master the challenge. But I had no doubt because everything you make It amaze me. Take care and stay warm and safe ❤️ Blessings to you and your family ❤️
Also, the fries that are at Dollar tree can be turned into some of the best mashed potatoes! The fries are not pre-seasoned or anything. So, basically they are just frozen potatoes. Allow them to thaw out some, cut them into smaller pieces. Then boil like you would any potato. They will mash up. Add, milk, and butter and seasoning you like. I have made this quite a bit. Lol! Very good !😂😂😂❤
Girl you crack me up I live up here in Michigan and I'm a general manager at a Dollar tree and I'm always coming up with ideas and recipes to use thank you for sharing stay warm and God bless you all
I live in a depressed area and my Dollar Tree stores are not plentiful in the freezer section. God bless those that have to shop there to make it for feeding them and their families. Thank you to all creators that do Dollar Tree food videos!!! Thank you for sharing your ideas with us! You never know when you are going to be next. The economy is just awful and people are living paycheck to paycheck here is the USA. That is so sad. God bless everyone and your families! Thank you, Brooke!
This was a fun idea. I’ve got chili in the freezer I was going to get out today. I think I’ve got tots too, so day 2 of leftover chili might be chili cheese tots. I have oil left over from fried taco night this last week as well. Family will be surprised to have fried food twice in same month! Lol…I don’t like to fry often.
My wife and I were just talking about shrinkflation...like every time a brand puts " new and improved " on a product we feel like it shrinks..improved only for them! Right?
So true not only has the items shrank in size , some of the flavors have changed and there’s less veggies and more liquid in the cans now and even some if the cans have shrunk in size or if in a box the same size box but product inside had shrunk !! “Charge more get less” should be most manufacturers mottos now!!
I love the Dollar Tree Spring Rolls and Pot Stickers. I like them better than what I can get at Walmart or my local grocery stores. I live alone and have to be very frugal. I add a pkg of a rice mix or buy one of the fried rice tv sides or make my own meatless fried rice to have with half of the potstickers and spring rolls. I get 2 full meals out of three Dollar Tree food items. I make a spicy sweet and vinegar dipping sauce or a spicy peanut dipping sauce for my spring rolls and pot stickers. That's one of my favorite meals, it really is better tasting than my local Chinese Carry Out food. Anything besides typical American food and Mexican or Chain Italian food is pretty bad in my small town. Two meals for me for $3.75 is pretty good! That's $1.87 per meal for potstickers, spring rolls and rice. Add some hot deal and almond or vanilla cookies and I'm satisfied, full and happy, don't feel poor at all! When I have leftover small amounts of veggies I store them in a large container to add to veggie soup but I also keep a small container with little bits of leftovers suitable to add to fried rice or to add to ramen noodles with some peanut butter and Thai sweet chili sauce or a homemade dupe to make quick and easy faux Pad Thai, that faux Pad Thai is also really good with the Spring Rolls and or Pot Stickers. I think the Pork Pot stickers are best but my Dollar Tree has the Chicken more often.
Dear hannakinn, Please may I ask how you make your dipping sauce for your spring rolls and pot stickers, it sounds so delicious. Appreciate any reply. Thank you. Debbie and Dexter-Dog 🐶 my sweet tiny rescued Chihuahua companion living a quiet crafty life in southern California.🐶💞🏠👍🙋🧑🦽🙏🐰
I’m a northern girl so have never had cheese fries with canned chili, casserole, but do think that I might give it a try sometime soon. Love 💕 the Dollar Tree and know that several of you women who make low cost meals like to include it as well as Walmart and Aldi. Always good to give these a try… especially at times when money is really tight!✅. Thanks for sharing this idea! 😊
That is a spicier version of a British classic on my roatation: baked potato, beans in tomato sauce and cheese. Who doesn’t love some taters beans and cheese?!? Good job, Brooke!
It was -2 when I went out this morning, and it got up to a balmy 14F this afternoon. Chili Cheese Fries is perfect on a day like this. Thanks, Brooke and Jenny!
I was in IN last year and it snowed, thought I would freeze to death - brought a coat with me but I live in Central FL and my coat was not warm enough - I grew up in IN but have lived in FL over30 yrs brrr! Lol😅 today 70 degrees and below I'm m cold today it's 32 and I am 🥶 😂 I love the way you turned this into a casserole 🥘 I too love chilli cheese fries but I like my chilli thicker. But glad to see this option I see others using the smoked sausage to make this challenge...ty for sharing this....😊
Hi Brooke, love u and love all your videos! Im going back a lil bit here but I wanted to let you know that at Christmas time, my daughter and her friend and I were inspired by your shelf stable meals for blessing boxes. We dont really have that here in Canada, but we threw together a bunch of shelf stable meals and dropped them off at the foodbank. Best part of my Christmas this year. Thanks to your vids! We gonna continue as long as we can for every holiday. Thanks for being so positive and spreading kindness❤
Brooke, I got a big chuckle this morning. I am up here in Buffalo, NY. We got walloped this week with 5 - 6 feet of snow, depending on where we live in the area. I agree with you. Big bad snowstorms call for some comfort food. Thank goodness for my pantry. I only had to leave my house for work. Stay warm, only 2 months of winter left.😂😂😂
Those spring rolls are amazing. I buy them all the time and add them to my stir fry meals as a side. They are a staple in my freezer. You have to try them.
LOL..I feel ya. I live in MS and we just ain't used to this mess...lol. I have a friend from the north that just laughs her tail off at me. I love chili cheese fries. Great video!
During our cold snap, I was wanting potato soup but didn’t have any of the ingredients. However, I did have some canned chili so I had that. One of the days I when I had to be out in it I did find a bag of Fritos chips. I had corn chips and chili.
Hey Brooke! Just discovered that I am two hours south of you in Pikeville Tennessee. My favorite part of this video is the first round of french fries when you threw them in and they splattered and then you threw one last french fry in…..that’s totally me!!! ….probably not too silly but I thought it was funny. Your videos make me smile!
Northeaster here, and I've heard stories of 3 separate snow/ice incidents from my neighborhood within the previous week alone. Gotta be careful even if you're experienced. Your car can literally slide past an intersection on a red light at night due to hidden black ice. It happened to my coworker once when she was breaking to a stop for the streetlight, but screamed after her car just kept on moving. Dollar tree is a good place to be creative with limited selection. You got choices like rice, bean, oatmeal, frozen veggies, tortilla wraps,etc... Then there are pre-mixes/instant-meals like can chili, cornbread, soup, frozen burrito/eggroll, etc. A good pantry is a must, definitely.
I'm South of your location, and we're on Day 5 of this insane Winter weather. We didn't just get a lot of snow, most of ours was/is ice. Our area is still crippled. LOVE chili cheese fries and is one of our favorite comfort foods too. 😊
Great idea, Jenny! Thanks, Brooke for completing the challenge with ease. You have some skills at savings and are a meal creation savant. Be safe, warm and always blessed my Southerland Squad! xoxo
ive made chilli cheese fries alot. or chips and chilli dip or chilli nachos, my new favorite is chilli with no beans from save alot half a can in beef ramen noodles, then i add onions on top, chilli powder, tajin seasoning, and i add two slices of white american cheese and stir until melted. its like chilli mac, but i use ramen noodles instead. or chilli and hot dogs like coney island. i havent tried that recently.
I am not a winter person we've had snow for two weeks now.Woke up this morning with 0 degrees and -3 wind chill.(I live in kansas).The comfort food looks delicious. 😋
I live in a small town that only has a dollar general. We have to go to the next town to get to the dollar tree and Walmart. I appreciate those who show how to make wonderful dishes from dollar store ingredients. God bless
I am jealous of your Dollar Tree Brooke!!lol It has all kinds of goodies in the frozen section and the one we've got in my teeny tiny town has one consisting of 4 doors. That's it!! Really great vid girl!! ❤❤❤
My Dollar tree dies t have much frozen items either , no fries or meat or cheese mostly frozen burritos, pizzas, sandwiches not much else at mine not even any bread only mixes on the shelf to make cornbread or biscuits !
there is a BIG difference in what we get in south (tennessee here, too) and what they get up north, etc. first of all, we get ( usually) lots ad lots of ice with the snow. and secondly...we dont have the equipment to deal with it. we have like....3 plows in the whole state, or something. lol. and last but not least, we are not used to it. I myself have many years of having driven in snow under my belt. but younget people have zero idea. because we just seldom get it anymore. (we used to back a hundred years ago when i was in school, lol). Anyway, except for the fact that i just packed a weeks worth of clothes and came prepared to my patients home.....i am loving it. (I seldom get cabin fever r anything) but it wouldve been better if I had been snowed in at home with my husband and .....my home, where my comfort is, and all mu stuff is. but , i really love snow and really hate summer so...i am different than most of the world. THANKS for this idea. idk if ours has this stuff, i will have to see.
Hello, me and my boyfriend started watching your videos several months ago and we love them! You did several videos of when you were younger and had no food in the house, the food you would make. I don’t know if you’ve tried it before but it’s been a staple in my house since I was a kid. I’m used to eat cottage cheese on saltine crackers and it’s one of my favorite things to eat. When I’d visit my grandpa, me and my brothers would have it. I think you should try it! You could upgrade to cottage cheese and chives! Thank you for your videos! ❤
Brooke, I moved from Florida to Michigan many years ago and our first winter there it was twenty below!, and for 2 weeks straight! So, I completely understand your reluctance to embrace the snow. When you aren't used to those kinds of temps/weather, it can be miserable. Positive thought, Spring is just a couple months ahead!
Brooke you are so right about this snow we don't get snow like this yesterday we went to little walmart which is 2 miles and my butt cheeks were clenched tight because of ice and then we come out of the store and it snowed for 30 minutes while we were in the store and put a inch of snow back on the ground while we were in the store I was so glad to get back in our driveway and know we were alive. Between you a me I fry my fries in oil we tried them baked and air fried and we like them best in oil. Love some chili cheese fries great job Brooke.
We have these delicious fries that I know make...I make fries (I do homemade, cuz I love them) and then you drizzle cheese sauce on top add green onions, chopped peppers, Red, green whatever you like chopped up small pcs tomatoes, and for those who like it, sour cream Oh ya and bacon bits..Yum!
Brooke, We’ve had this snow all week also. We live in middle TN and it’s been a lot! Probably be able to get out on Monday. The side roads are like ice skating arenas.😂Love all your videos!!❤️
It looks delicious 😋. I wonder how many meals you could make with $10 since you have 5 people in your family. Maybe even a series $10, $20, $30. Including breakfast and lunch. Some people only have a Dollar Tree close to them and have to travel a lot farther for a grocery store.
that looked really good for wintery comfort food, I'm going to make some soon. Thanks for the idea Jenny!! we are slammed here in southwest michigan with lake effect snow and fridged temperatures 🥶Brooke you made it happen girl 🎉
Definitely going to be making this in my very near future, I have a big bag of tater tots in the freezer, I can take those out and fry them up and pour some chili that I made the other night on them, my kids will definitely enjoy it, thank you for the amazing idea, you guys stay safe and stay warm, look forward to seeing your next video
This was a great idea. I liked it a lot. I need to try this one. I love watching You and Your Family. Yes l am a Northern or Western Girl and We are use to snow. I am not laughing but I did on the last video when You showed the 11 inches of snow in Your back yard. LOL!! You were so SURPRISED!! It is fun and Wonderful that Your reaction was like a HAPPY LITTLE GIRL!!! We still have a little snow up here. The worst thing is Our Windchills though. It was -55*F. Then recently it has been -6*F. It feels awful! Our pipes froze up. We don’t have any hot water and it froze part of my washer so it is broke. Anyway the worst part is the furnace broke. OH HAPPY DAY! We have 2 space heaters and the kitchen oven on with the door open. We are sleeping on the couch and recliner in the living room next to the kitchen. Oh Yes and I have an electric blanket. My tough old Husband is a tough old Guy Ya know. He does not need an electric blanket. He sleeps with his comforter, Heavy clothes on and Our dog in his lap keeping Them Both warm. We should be able to get everything fixed Monday or Tuesday; I hope. I am also happy that We are old buggers that do not have any kids here. We are Grandparents. Anyway, We are okay and will be okay. I love to watch Your videos. You keep this old Woman happy. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!😊💕👍🏼👋🏼
My DT, a county over from yours hardly has the raviolis, but when they do I stock up LOL I even do a short cut/lazy trick of using the crock pot one bag with one jar of marinara I put a little water in it and one bag of the Italian meatballs and I make sure they're dip down into sauce and in 2 hours on high its perfect
I saw this video a couple of days ago and I've been dying to make this I finally have the time to make it I know I'll enjoy it thanks for the inspiration.
We rarely have snow. When we do it is usually 1" with 2" being the max. It is usually gone the same day and no later than the next afternoon. I sure do not want snow all the time like up north. However, i would like a good snow that stays on the ground 2-3 days once in a while .
Utah here...we have snow in the canyons but you have more snow on the ground than we do and we are 45 for a high. We known for the greatest snow on earth...lol
Thank you 😊 to the subscriber who sent the gift card and the idea to make a five dollar meal from the dollar tree. It was such a sweet gesture, great treat and made this video happen. And the meal looked good and warm. I loved 🥰 the kids reaction.
Brooke oh I thoroughly enjoyed watching what you made with the $5 gift card I sent you. It really looked delicious. I am making this for my husband and I tomorrow.

Get out of town!
I wonder if they would be good as the top layer on a shepherd's pie?
@@lizh1988i bet it would be great!
Sprinkle salt into the oil before adding your frying food to prevent splatter it works really well I also use a metal ladle to place it in ❤

I think they use it to try and distract from the price increase happening at the same time.
Snow didn't bother me in Ohio, but ice on the roads did!😊
Definitely laughing at you 🤣 😂 that's like a dusting of snow to us 😂
We got 18 inches in last 24 hours. Just west of me got 3 feet of snow. Gotta love lake effect snow in sw corner of Michigan
A dusting?! 😂 I’m miserable lol!
It's definitely a big difference when the roads are kept clear and people can drive in it VS how it is down here.
That's the Dollar Tree I shop at all the time!
We have snow . I love it . Cooking and making jewelry. Cozy in the house .
I'm not laughing Brooke. Snow is pretty to look at only from inside your home. When it's a Dollar Tree meal, a meal is a meal. Thank you! ❤
Dollar Tree chili cheese fries are the best. I love that someone challenged you....this was a great idea!

We have these delicious fries that I know make...I make fries (I do homemade, cuz I love them) and then you drizzle cheese sauce on top add green onions, chopped peppers, Red, green whatever you like chopped up small pcs tomatoes, and for those who like it, sour cream Oh ya and bacon bits..Yum!
Not only challenge excepted its going be ding dang yummy I bet ya !!!!
This looks amazing. I now need to go to the store and get the ingredients for this
Brooke, We’ve had this snow all week also. We live in middle TN and it’s been a lot! Probably be able to get out on Monday. The side roads are like ice skating arenas.😂Love all your videos!!❤️
That is a lot! 😮
It looks delicious 😋. I wonder how many meals you could make with $10 since you have 5 people in your family. Maybe even a series $10, $20, $30. Including breakfast and lunch. Some people only have a Dollar Tree close to them and have to travel a lot farther for a grocery store.
that looked really good for wintery comfort food, I'm going to make some soon. Thanks for the idea Jenny!! we are slammed here in southwest michigan with lake effect snow and fridged temperatures 🥶Brooke you made it happen girl 🎉
Frozen fries in hot oil can be super dangerous. I microwave them just to get the chill off and they fry up nicely
Definitely going to be making this in my very near future, I have a big bag of tater tots in the freezer, I can take those out and fry them up and pour some chili that I made the other night on them, my kids will definitely enjoy it, thank you for the amazing idea, you guys stay safe and stay warm, look forward to seeing your next video
This looks really delicious. I am tempted to make this too.
Love your videos. Addicted to them. :)
Yum, looks so good. The boys faces was priceless.
In Michigan, I make a lot of soups and take advantage of my outside natural freezers🤣
I had to smile when I saw your snow. We live with that pretty much from October into April 😂
Girl, I can sit here and watch your videos forever.
I bet if you did vlogs they would be cool.
Well thank you beautiful friend!!!
If there is snow on the ground we’re taking comfort food Brooke… 😂❤
This was a great idea. I liked it a lot. I need to try this one. I love watching You and Your Family. Yes l am a Northern or Western Girl and We are use to snow. I am not laughing but I did on the last video when You showed the 11 inches of snow in Your back yard. LOL!! You were so SURPRISED!! It is fun and Wonderful that Your reaction was like a HAPPY LITTLE GIRL!!!
We still have a little snow up here. The worst thing is Our Windchills though. It was -55*F. Then recently it has been -6*F. It feels awful! Our pipes froze up. We don’t have any hot water and it froze part of my washer so it is broke. Anyway the worst part is the furnace broke. OH HAPPY DAY! We have 2 space heaters and the kitchen oven on with the door open. We are sleeping on the couch and recliner in the living room next to the kitchen. Oh Yes and I have an electric blanket. My tough old Husband is a tough old Guy Ya know. He does not need an electric blanket. He sleeps with his comforter, Heavy clothes on and Our dog in his lap keeping Them Both warm. We should be able to get everything fixed Monday or Tuesday; I hope. I am also happy that We are old buggers that do not have any kids here. We are Grandparents. Anyway, We are okay and will be okay. I love to watch Your videos. You keep this old Woman happy.
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!😊💕👍🏼👋🏼
My DT, a county over from yours hardly has the raviolis, but when they do I stock up LOL I even do a short cut/lazy trick of using the crock pot one bag with one jar of marinara I put a little water in it and one bag of the Italian meatballs and I make sure they're dip down into sauce and in 2 hours on high its perfect
I saw this video a couple of days ago and I've been dying to make this I finally have the time to make it I know I'll enjoy it thanks for the inspiration.
It was funny when you threw the last fry into the pan.
We rarely have snow. When we do it is usually 1" with 2" being the max. It is usually gone the same day and no later than the next afternoon. I sure do not want snow all the time like up north. However, i would like a good snow that stays on the ground 2-3 days once in a while .
Utah here...we have snow in the canyons but you have more snow on the ground than we do and we are 45 for a high. We known for the greatest snow on earth...lol
We’re in Michigan and we’re used to snow😊
I will have to try this. Looks good 😊
My grandson absolutely loves chili cheese fries with sour cream
😂😂😂. I like the surprise response
Use a slotted spoon to add the food to the oil. It gives you an extension and you can feel a little safer about adding stuff to hot oil.
Delicious 😋 brook
That looked so good. I'm gonna make that
You can give our snow back to us! Nothing here in Montana. Can't even ski proper.
Thank you 😊 to the subscriber who sent the gift card and the idea to make a five dollar meal from the dollar tree. It was such a sweet gesture, great treat and made this video happen. And the meal looked good and warm. I loved 🥰 the kids reaction.
I love spring rolls
Now I need to make chili cheese fries! I'll have to use fresh potatoes. Yum
Awesome video Brooke, thanks 👍👍
A fried egg on that! Yum!
I never thought of that!
