Day in Life: My Typical Dinner
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 чер 2024
- My dinner is usually pretty simple consisting of bulk cooked foods very minimal or even zero salt. It's pretty normal to me and tastes great but I think many might not think the same.

My freezer use to look like yours. Here is a frugal suggestion for you. Use old water bottles, fill them with salt water. Why salt water, because it will freeze at a lower temperature. Why do this? Because if you can have more mass in your freezer, it will run more efficient. If one is a prepper, make some of the water bottles filtered water in case you ever need drinking water.
Jason Leung you didn’t read the last sentence
Just buy I a reusable water bottle
I love the healthy eating! I also like seeing how reasonable your portion sizes are.
The blueberry hibiscus jello sounds interesting. I will try to make it.
Keep up the great work!
Do you feel guilty from the energy costs spent when you opened the fridge to show us your food?
Ahahhahha
Yeah I'm sure it hurt him a bit but he figured he'll be making the money back from making this video.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Taking it to the next level hah..
My heart absolutely jumps when I see the frig light come on. I start counting.
Hey BTB, I like to see your meals/ how you cook lol. please post more cooking videos.
Definitely!! I was blown away on how simple his dinner was, and that blueberry jello... whoh, mystic.
The dude does it all. Respect
Thank you!
Youre a huge inspiration to me man! Love these videos providing a good example fir myself and others.
that hibiscus desert looks so good.
I love your videos! I don't know why.
Hey Francis have you looked into using washable cloth linen napkins like they use in restaurants, personally my family does this and we use disposable paper towels for things like cleaning only. I believe over time we have saved money and used up less napkins, let me know what you think!
Love your videos! Really helpful!
Thanks!
Haha "i've not fully transitioned into a full plant diet yet"
3/4th of fridge is meat haha =p
Beat me to the post lol.
How do you know how long he had the meat. Would be a waste to throw it out.
@@chrissh0485 would actually be the smartest thing to do, humans do not need dead animal carcass. For a guy who is disciplined in his saving/investing/frugality, he falls short here.
Steve Smekar we don’t need it but it’s tasty. In moderation is ok I guess in his regard in frugality and even in a health perspective.
@@chrissh0485 ima do an all meat diet!
Video idea: What can you do for fun that doesn’t cost any money (or very little money)? Most people have very expensive ways to have fun
The most fun thing to do and cost no money is something you can't do by yourself. It require 2 people.
@@vincentyu1245 yup
Love this style of video
I eat one Skittle as my desert. Entire pack last me close to 3 weeks. It's a delight a absolute delight! Sometimes I'll even freeze my Skitlet. That nice cold Skitlet goes down well after a meal. Absolute treat, no two ways about it. I highly recommend it to anyone who's trying to stretch their money. On a side note I never throw out the packaging. I sniff the bag, it's like a drug. After inhaling the bag I feel as if I've eaten two whole Skitlets.
Did you beam over from Cherbourg? You got home pretty quick.. lol..Could you share your fermented cabbage recipe? Looks tasty..
Love your videos! 👏
Looks good to me! Back in my day, I used to eat more than those 12 pieces of Starburst. Whaaaat was I thinking!
BtheB! Francis, you're going to live to be 100! I need to clean out the fridge and start fresh with clean fruits and veggies. Great video!
Keep it up bush!
More cooking video's please. Loved it!
Very yummy and healthy. Scallops are delicious! Awesome video
Your videos inspired me to do meatless Monday for the first time in my life! I'm sitting here eating hummus and watching this.
Isn't hummus poop? xd
Do you buy the whole pomegranate and then take out the seeds manually or do you just buy the pomegranate-seeds?
Dessert looks really good! Do share recipe
I love your videos!
Couple things: 1) can you do a video please how to make the hibiscus dessert? 2) re: your cabbage, I also keep my leftovers in the original pot I prepared them in.Less work &to wash - not transferring the stuff to another container.
It’s good to conserve...here’s a tip u might like (in case you don’t already know), in additional to turning off gadgets/appliances when not in use, I actually unplug it as well. Everything except, of course, the fridge, oven, washer/dryer n dishwasher. I unplug everything n unbelievably, I save close to $100 a month on energy. my monthly bills are under $35. I also turn off thermostat except during winter. Building requires we keep stat at 65 ALL day everyday during winter months to prevent pipe breakage...n like u, I don’t use a lot of tissue at all except when I am eating fried chicken..I use it to soak up all the nasty grease!!
this is so relatable
A tip for helping in the sticking when cooking, heat the pan till really hot and THEN add any oil or grease, don't add it when the pan is still cold ( it also makes cleaning the pan easier)
I couldn’t stop at one Candy will end up eating the whole jar.
Looks yummy! 😍😍
Is it ok to cover plate with another plate for microwave?
Will waves achive food?
How much electricity will be used with and without upper plate?
Hi looks good. How do you cook your rice. And can you tell me what brand you buy thanks
I'm glad to see that you're adding more plant-based foods in your diet
not sure about pomegranate, but a lot plants developed nutritious flesh but bitter or sometimes toxic seeds so the animal will help them spread the seed but not actually eat the seed, it's not always good to eat everything
Love it!
=D
Thanks for sharing your dinner with us! I'm trying to go more plant based, too... (now that Thanksgiving is over..:P) PS - Was that Fire Cider in your refrigerator door?!?! xWBW
This guy using the M.E.D. when it comes to napkins. (Minimum Effective Dose)
So I don’t think that was frugal 😎🏆
I could eat and enjoy that meal! Simple, easy, and healthy.
⚛️ I just lost a income stream > I was cooking 🧑🍳 1 meal a day and getting takeaway for meal number 2 ⚛️ with a loss of income I decided to cook all 2 meals at home and also try a plant based diet for health and reduce food cost ⚛️
Kudos to you for moving towards a plant based diet. You will get there , don't feel bad for taking your time. Have you ever considered a napkin that you wash? I have given up paper towels and use microfiber cloths to clean as as napkins.
Ok uhhh I'm married but I think u are the perfect man lolol honesty I tear the paper towels in half in my house and my husband thinks I'm cray lol
@TigerEyes cool lol 🙃
#Beatthebush What’s the hibiscus desert recipe?
What’s the hibiscus desert recipe? :)
1 in 10 people in Toronto now use food banks. You're lucky you have dinner. I'll bet it's double the price it was back then. You should do an updated grocery video with what it costs now.
Wow! I no longer need to buy cling wrap. Will just use two plates like you haha thanks!
Do you track your weight? I'm relatively skinny 5'10" and 143ish but I noticed variations day to day depending on amount I eat and before and after bathroom use. Also before and after a diet change I gained a lot of motivation seeing the numbers. I feel like this would be good data for an Excel sheet lol.
Not really because I get hungry if I eat too little keeping me near the same weight most the time.
Is the hibiscus jello around the blueberries too tart, or does the sweetness balance it out?
Blueberries is sweet enough to completely remove the tartness.
I'm a meat, eggs, cheese and green veg eater. I've lost 60lbs and feel wonderful. It's not expensive because it's so filling that I only eat once a day. I also fast 1 day a week.
My freezer is full because I don't eat out so my wife buys a lot of stuff from the local food co-op which is approaching it's best before date but it's frozen so it doesn't matter. Otherwise we wait until stuff is half price special like gyoja. We do buy our fresh veggies from the asian market much cheaper and only buy what is on special. We eat very very well for less than 50 bucks per week for both of us. It's important when you are living frugally to not feel like you are IMO
Enjoy your video very much. Your video made me more conscientious about my snacking. Jello is not vegetarian as it made with gelatin an animal base product.
It looks very healthy
Time saving
It is very impressive
Interesting, I see that you are very knowledgeable about the great benefits of pomegranate, various berries, figs 🙂.
Would you happen to be lactose intolerant (no dairy in fridge)?
Cheers mate go full PB soon! Its worth it!
Good video focusing on health, my only complaint is, I look at alot of health channels and every one says reheating vegetables in the microwave, they lose their nutrition and health benefits, so I always reheat my veggies on a pan :)
Even pan cooking will deteriorate the vitamins so it depends how well cooked either method is.
Microwaved food just never tastes as good to me. I still use the microwave at work but at home i havent owned a microwave in over 2 years. Its kinda funny having friends over and seeing them get confused when they go to reheat food. To each their own though!
I do a lot of the same things and enjoy eating a pb diet. I sleep less and never tired during the day. I cook about 5 days worth or rice at a time to keep in the fridge. So it is nice throwing dinner together in a few minutes. I do not use salt and only keep some meat in the freezer for my dog. Otherwise my diet is vegan and not deficient in anything. Also never use a microwave and still can get dinner together in less than 10 minutes,
What's your protein source?
I eat lots of veggies and beans . Broccoli is my favorite and I do miss it when I’m outside the US because in the Philippines very hard to get and expensive. Most foods you eat have protein. It is all a lifestyle choice just do what your body feels best with. I feel better on a plant-based diet.
The napkin thing is good. Your food looks good too.
My main is baked Brussel sprouts, white rice, chicken, and green beans.
Question of the day > how many toilet paper 🧻 rolls do you use ? I live with 2 females and they think 💭 a tree is growing next to the toilet 🚽 I tested this at my holiday home 🏠 I didn’t even use 1 whole toilet paper 🧻 roll for 1 month > a quick shower 🚿 was better and cleaner ✅
Haha.. I see a reflection of myself in most of you frugal/ minimalist-related videos! (forehead palm + sweet smile lol)
=D Yup... still eating similar to what you see there most days.
First! Dinner and dessert look great. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks!
=D
Around 0:40 I like white rice, but only if it is fresh. Do you eat it cold?
Never eat rice cold, it tastes terrible. I always reheat it.
Out of curiosity, is there a reason you don't use herbs and spices?
Yeah I just eat shrimp with shell now for years. No use de-shelling because it just a matter of texture.
You should look into making Indian dishes and cuisine and how they incorporate lots of vegetables into their biryanis chutneys and currys. I think the sauerkraut is a very nice edition same benefits as kimchi and the garbanzo beans contain good building blocks for protein to assimilate but their are dry mixes like 12 bean soup when cooked properly provide all the essential amino acids like soybean edame
I do like Indian dishes but the ones that are my fav has a lot of coconut milk in it.
Blueberry jello neat. I also seen chicken wings add some hot sauce, they'd be good to go.
Now I want to put hibiscus in every dessert. Great idea!
yumm!
I was on a fish kick but after getting some fishy fish I am off fish for a while. Just curious beat the bush why arent you eatng fish anymore?
Did you got a new fridge?
No, it’s old.
cloth napkins, can be used several times between washing (unless you're really messy, or eating barbeque)
Or can use some small cloth napkins? =D
Love crunching my way through pomegranate
It grows on you. I enjoy the seeds now.
Hey very first time here...I follow Prepper Princess and see you there. So here I am. I've subscribed. Will check out your other videos. I just went through my fridge and ate my left overs as well. 😀😀Today I'll use up my 2 sweet potatoes and make some sweet potatoe wraps. Cheers!!!!
I had pomegranate recently after not for a long time. The seeds are a bit hard to take but I eat some and spit some. Shrimp? There's no way I would intentionally eat the shells. But I don't think it's harmful to do so.
I peel them if I cook them myself. But 'amaebi' when eating sushi, they fry the head and you eat the whole shrimp head.
Im so happy youre transitioning to whole food plant based, me too!
Trying... and failing sometimes. On and off here and there. So we'll see.
I'm working on the same goal and try to include some type of bean and am looking toward using rice in my meals. As an American, I grew up on a diet of meat and potatoes LOL
Oh, I would love to visit and tune you up a notch on this! You are doing great, no doubt, but I would love to show you tiny tricks how to make your diet even better. Candy could for sure be swapped for a date or two or some figs (much healthier options). White rice ... could be swapped for variety of things (i mean starchy options, quinoa, buckwheat etc.), my favourite would be black glutinous rice (second is red rice, alternatively riceberry), which of course takes forever to make, but all rice is possible to freeze. I freeze rice and beans with the water they have been cooking in, so that they are not dried out once thawed. I also tend to think in colors (and taste) when cooking. Like, you are having this cabbage and it would just be perfect to put some of that carrot you had in the fridge to it ... it would look fun. Add some spices ... yum. I love your "fridge emptying" system. I try to aim for the same, just never manage. Fresh produce somehow always makes it there before we are all out ...
Finally an interesting vid
Hate pomegranate
Fridge similar to mine
Just me and my cat
He eats leftover meat
I shrimp shell too
And reuse napkins
Invest in an Aerogarden type of thing and your veggies will become next to for free. No need to worry about fresh salad or lettuce recalls either.
That would indeed be a great investment. Certainly some time will be used to tend it.
Nice. Seem to be following Dr Gregor! If you like Indian, try to start making chick peas with Indian spices and add kale or any other veggies. I make a big pot and reheat it for multiple days! Black beans work well too
thats a genius dessert
How do you keep your rice from drying out in the fridge
He covers it. I do the same except I use a glass bowl and a plastic lid instead of plates.
I know you didn't ask but, if you have stale rice or even just older rice place a wet paper towel over the bowl and microwave and it becomes fresh soft again.
Joseph is Awesome
That is the answer I was looking for
To get fluffy soft rice from stale rice in fridge, I suggest adding a little water to the rice before you microwave. Make sure to cover it though. I don't have a microwave so I actually reheat my rice in a small pan with a lid and some water. Same results..
You didn't show us the drawer with the canned beverages.
I love this guy
no frills
=D
Is it worth it to buy a rice cooker?
Depends how much rice you eat. I suggest to not eat any to minimize arsenic intake. Use the rice cooker to cook whole grains or other kinds. Make sure the rice cooker inner container is stainless steel.
Halleluya, he is so frugal. I justicia LOVE his videos.
Mgtw for life. If he had a familia then he has to go to work.
The dessert looks great.
=D
How does one use a 1/2 a napkin and have 3 different pieces of cutlery in their bowl at the same time? Is less more? or is more less? lol
Lol. Chopsticks to do normal eating. Spoon to scoop up the tiny bits.
Your home looks cozy sir
Thank you!
How did you make the sauerkraut?
It wasn't that really. Just lightly cooked red cabbage.
i think your dinner looks great and many think the same
=D Thanks!
Your dessert sounds tasty. I personally like chickpeas in a greek salad.
Probably could find a professional sealer on sale. That way you could have the same meal forever.
Why won't you do fish no more?
Cooked cabbage, rice, scallops, never had that before, that's some kind of seafood? But besides the cooked cabbage you also had some sauerkraut! As for the Hibiscus jello with blueberries and some pomegranate bits, totally healthy Dinner! :)
Yes. I have to say my eating habits are a bit strange it it already morphed away from this. More brussels sprouts now.
Looks good to me, sir!
Recipe for bread and blueberry dessert plz
Huh... I should make a recipe video for each. I have a lot of work to do!
Square little candies 😂
=D
that jello looks good!
is the jello vegan?
No because of the gelatin. You can use vegan alternatives to turn it into jello though.
Why no more seafood sir?
You wanna eat petroll?
L P too expensive for him lol
