I am losing my job and facing eviction and I'm so grateful for your channel. I am able to make my food stretch because of the ideas you have shown here. I've already made several of your meals and I thank God he led me to your channel. Thank you so much!
I'm learning a lot by watching the videos as well it's a huge blessing because I'm not good at budgeting money at all I hope you find a new place to live and god bless yah.
Thank you so much.@@HitManTPanda
Praying you have found an even better job & place to live! Remember God's promises, you can do all things through Him who gives you His strength! His blessings on you!
Thank you so much for the kind words, God is already providing me with a place to live. He has never forsaken me and I am so blessed.@@natureshealing6534
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.@@tab9773
I found this lady accidentally but can’t stop watching the reason being she has a perfect portion size of meals and she uses everything with no waste, I cook all nationalities menu’s and she is the only one I’ve ever seen who does as I do and uses everything with the minimum waste. Good on her she is a credit to her family and have you noticed none of her lovely family have weight problems because she knows how to portion size adequately ❤
Very excellent points! 😊
She's AWESOME with a capital A!🇨🇦♥️
🎯 💯 🎯 I agree Brooke Dusty and the boys have improved my quality of life and my budget. If you haven't watched Dusty's channel you should it's great! And...Aunt Vickie's craft corner I love all three ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
“I don’t think spices expire, oh well I’m using it” literally all off of us lol. Love your commentary!!
They don't expire, but they do lose strength. Taste test! Add some more!
I went to use my thyme this week and just happened to look down. It had expired in 2017🤣
If they haven't been opened, they are fine. If they have been opened, the potency goes down. Either use a lot more, or replace.
If it still smells it’s good to go!
@@adriennef4637please do NOT use it !!!
We live in an apartment and we are blessed that the owner gave us a side yard for our container garden. No one else on our side grows anything.
Our new property management has so many rules and gardening of any kind isn't allowed, even on the patio. It sucks.
You are very lucky that your owner allowed you to have a garden. Depending on where you live you can have a lot of fresh chemical free fruits & veggies !!!!😅
Heck yeah that's great.
Your children are so lucky to have parents like you and Dusty,they are showing signs of growing up to be great people!
They love broccoli,🥦 except the little one. He a southern boy,😅😅😅😅 so he has to eat those veggies if he wants to be tall like his brothers.😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
Agree; they are awesome parents; God bless their family 💛
I’m here for the first bite reactions, they’re all great but the youngest is so ecstatic it makes me laugh every time. Good stuff keep it coming!!!
I cannot be the only person who has to pause the video halfway through because I get so hungry watching Brooke cook that I have to go and make myself something to eat. While I’m watching the rest of the video 😆
I threw chicken curry in the crockpot mid video 😂
I do that all the time.😊
🤣🤣🤣 I did the same thing!
That is so me lol
She made me want her hotdog and veggie mac and cheese at 1 am. So that's lunch today lmao. 😅
I think this has been your best meal plan ever! Everything looked so good. I love the way you show people how to cook from scratch. Your channel is so much better than the Food Network.
I couldn't agree more! I've watched every video. And this is my favoutite meal plan thus far. And I can see, as a viewer, that Brooke is having fun too!
Shes so compelling to watch. Brooke is a gem 💎!! I watch Brooke over cable TV, in a heartbeat 💓 💗 her realness shows as do he extended creativity and skills. They are a joy to behold 🎉
Sending love from Ontario 🇨🇦
Yes seriously it’s real I feel inspired when I watch Brooke cook vs like now I need to go buy a million ingredients I don’t have
Brooke..I love your channel..your energy your ideas..your family..your “realness” it’s refreshing . You come across as everyone’s bestie..💗
She would be the best ,loving friend.
@@julieyoung3815 absolutely
As a frequent user of coconut milk, I will now be looking at my local dollar tree, because wow what a deal. It normally runs about 2.75 a can. Awesome tidbit, thank you!
I buy it there for Indian dishes! No since spending more than I need to.
You should absolutely include your food from your garden
Maybe you could just check out the current price per pound of veggies currently in the store and then put price side by side in the same video so you can show the difference in cost 😊
Oh my goodness! You had me at soup beans but then you made fried taters! And then you made fried green tomatoes!! And THEN you made cornbread!!! Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better you served it with fresh sliced onions. Bestie, if you are ever in the Dallas Texas area… ❤
YES! YES! YES MA'AM! GOTTA HAVE THE ONIONS!
Love those menus of souther fare.
Thanks Brooke for doing the extra work of making 2 videos. Having a garden really does make a difference to your family's ability to eat healthy.
My son n law is Indian, he uses dark meat chicken in all of his curry dishes, boiled eggs and potatoes, never saw him use broth though. What you made looks good though. I love one pot meals, they stretch so far. I grew up in the mountains momma made one grocery store trip a year, everything else came from the garden or out in the wild. I don't know if most people could do that anymore but the food was always so good.
You can see how good the boys eat, by the looks of their beautiful, healthy hair. Nice vegetables! I'm so jealous of those tomatoes.
Girl, those beans, fried taters and maters and cornbread look delicious!! We were raised on food like that and chow chow & onions, yes!!!
I love your channel!
As soon as tomatoes come in. I get all the fresh veggies I can get and make a big plate. That 1st good red tomatoe from the garden is the best thing about summer.
Brooke, not sure about your dollar tree, but at ours, one can get a 5 pack of Ramen noodles for (of course!) $1.25, making them .25 each. I remember when they were .12 each at our Kroger! 😭
Get a kick out of your comments and great ideas. My daughter and I are prepping an area in her yard for a garden for next year. It's important to have good soil. A container garden is an option for people that have a deck or balcony. Herbs and certain veggies don't take much space. You made super use of the homemade broth. Keep your ideas coming. ❤
I remember getting them 10/$1 on sale when we had a budget of $100/mo for 2 adults and 1 child luckily they had that sale every month when we did our shopping.
I remember them way cheap too, I used to pray to find change on the sidewalk before I went to the store, always found enough, or more, than I needed.
(When there was a sale and I was low on funds, that was very helpful).
@@lizh1988 OMG, I did the same!! Was always scanning the ground for change. It helped!
I have been binge-watching your channel and I love it! I also grew up very poor with a single mom with 10 kids! Our dad passed away when we were young. She worked her fingers to the bone taking care of us. The struggles made us who we are today. Strong and independent. My grown kids grew up so food spoiled. Your recipes look delicious!
You are feeding your family well. The problem with society today is that portion size is out of control. No one eats normal healthy portions anymore.
If people did there would be no need for diets
Brooke I forgot to give you this recipe for zucchini garlic and tomatoes. It's a side dish you can serve or you will know how to put it up for the WINTER. Take a knife and make a 3 inch slit with the zucchini sitting on the table. Aim for the middle of the zucchini. Now peel a head of garlic. Lots of garlic cloves needed. Into each Zucchini
Stuff 4 cloves of raw garlic. Do this for four zucchini and brush the zucchini with oil as well as the parchment paper. Bake zucchini for 30 minutes in a 400 degrees oven and remove. Now peel ten tomatoes and whiz them through the blender until all mixed. Boil tomatoes in pot on stove until it thickens. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Get a large jar and stand the zucchini that is stuffed with garlic up in the jar. Pour in tomato sauce and seal.
Turn upside down and cover this jar for 24 hours. You can put this up for the Winter or in the fridge and serve as a side dish. It's delicious. Years ago in Yugoslavia under Communist rule there was not a lot to eat. Zucchini
Became a staple because there are lots of ways to cook it and when no one was looking you could grow a lot quietly. Just sharing. Hi to Dusty and fellas.
That recipe sounds good
This sounds delicious ! ❤
Wow I haven't heard anyone talk about Yugoslavia since I was a kid! I was told my family was originally from there, amazing!
Brooke, you amaze me! I just love you. Your attitude of kindness & love shines and you crack me up too. I do not know how you do it but you came up with food that looks divine on a tiny budget. The look on the kids faces says it all. That's a gift. Thank you for sharing and as always be blessed my Southern Squad! xoxo
Food is money! Yes all food is money! Your very bright about budgeting n hard working on being creative for your husband n children. Gods given you some great special skills.
I am impressed by all your ingenuity in cooking common foods. Great job on $35 !
Brooke I just want to say you are so dope. Thank you for always sharing and actually caring about your community and others. Your videos are so inspiring and they have actually helped me stop wasting things and buying things we don’t need and getting creative with meal ideas… Thanks again
I love your channel not just because the food is delicious and realistic. But the way your face lights up when you've fixed something that your family loves ♥
Hi Brooke & family ❤
It did not even feel like an hour long video! I was invested in what you were making & only realised at the end it was over an hour…you are so entertaining sweet girl.
I have a suggestion for a video (only an idea, no stress if you never do it 😅😘) but if you found out what “normal” products go into a food box from your local church/charity & see how many meals you could make from those items…I’d like to say, maybe only choose 4 pantry items that everyone would have as add ons (not counting salt & pepper as part of the four, as they are 💯 in every household usually) I’m sure families would be so grateful for any ideas you might come up with.
Keep up the great work Brooke. Much love from Australia 🇦🇺👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻😘
I would like to see this as well. A couple of women I know have been talking about us teaching folks how to cook, using what’s available in the “Blessings box”. It is getting harder and harder for folks out there.
Brooke we just recently had our last child leave the nest we raised 5 children of our own and then at 50 years old we adopted 5 children that were in the system so for fifty years that’s the age of our oldest child I’ve cooked for a big family now it’s just myself and my husband ! Could you just do one video on cooking and shopping for two I’m still over buying and cooking huge meals ! I love your videos and you sharing your beautiful family you mean alot to those that watch you your amazing sending Gods blessing and love ❤️
Something I thought about - when you do your no garden video, you could still use your garden produce and just factor in the store price that it would be for the items you use. This way you’re using what you have, but including it in your budget so people can still follow it to a T if they don’t have access to it.
I appreciate all ur home cooking. I'm learning from your good meals....keep up all ur yummy meals 😀 ❤️...
im so glad you decided to do both versions of the video (with and without garden supplements). ive been estranged from my family since i was a teenager, then in a youth shelter for a few years which meant i didnt really learn to cook, and now i live in the kind of area where my apartment manager wouldnt want the hassle of dealing with my request for a garden, my neighbors wouldnt care to keep their dogs out of it, and the stray cats/dogs would destroy it anyway. all my nearby friends are all either in similar apartments or in shelters trying to get jobs/diplomas/GEDs so we cant really do much about it together either. thank you for real, i can tell this is going to be so helpful and im gonna watch your other videos after too. thank you again so much !
You can tell when Braden likes your food, his eyes light up and starts to nod his head. He is so cute when he taste tests.
Today I got so much produce for $22 from a local stand. Like it’s enough for weeks and I’m gonna preserve some of it. I walked out of there with two bags and a box full of what I got. Local options if you can’t grow your own can still be cheap if you know where to look
Brooke can you please add your bread and tortilla recipes to the easy to find playlist? Also the dough you used for homemade hot pockets. Basically can you make a “Brooke does dough” video for the easy to find playlist? 😊I’m not a baker and you make it look so easy. Thanks!!
Brooke, so glad you demonstrated how to remove the spine from the thigh. I've been doing it for 45 years and nobody even notices it's missing from the thigh. I've made so make great meals over the years using the "oyster" and other bits and bobs that I can pick off the bones. When I debone thighs, I toss those bones in there too! Boneslesss, skinless chicken thighs made at home is a money saver for sure! Thanks for doing what you do!
Please show us how to make blackberry dumplings! My daddy used to make them when I was little. We poured canned sweetened condensed milk on them. He’s been gone for 10 years and no one knows how to make them.
I can't eat most of the recipes you make due to weird allergies (which I find sad because they look delicious), but watching your videos always gives me a few new ideas and seeing you and your family being real and just generally caring about people and eachother always puts a smile on my face - the long video today was an extra bonus. So thank-you (and Dusty and the kids) from a friend in Canada 🇨🇦 ❤ 🇨🇦
Brooke, you totally rocked this one!! Be proud girl. Your garden is producing some good looking veggies. I've told my kids it doesn't matter what it looks like as long as it's producing food. I loved how you did the prep work and came up with some great recipes. It really paid off.
I declare that this is the BEST series of meals you've made yet! Everything you made looked so, so scrumptious and I could see how hard you worked. I love how much your family appreciates what you do for them. Diane in NC
My budget is bigger than this, but I’m so proud of myself for staying under budget this week. You and creators that share similar content really teach us how to make it work. Thanks!😃💜
First, Brooke i think you did an awesome job with $35 and a few veggies from your garden. Second, y'all was all discussing about excuses and yes people do make excuses. But y'all need to realize too, that some people are not physically able to garden. I have a few pots with some herbs and stuff in them, but there's no way i could work a garden now. I have in the past and it's hard work, but the benefits are priceless. So if you can, garden if you want to and if you can't, do what i do. Hey a few pots and grow something you can.
I think your cooking skills are superior to most people, they way you can come up with basic recipes of the top of your head and have it look good is inspirational! Good job!
Watching your men enjoy your home cooking, is the best part of your channel. 🎉 it's so encouraging to see them eat your homemade tortillas and carnitas. Bc they've loved it, it's hugely motivating, for me, to actually try this.
Also, Brooke, this is where you shine! Using all your resources ❤to make your dollar stretch and I absolutely 💯 love seeing you in your element, making something outta nothing 😂😇 I hope you do more of these challenges and videos, where you use all the resources available to you. It's so inspiring and unlike other channels. This is a good thing, you are immensely creative. And I love watching you shine ✨
Sending love from Ontario 🇨🇦
I've never really gotten into these budget friendly channels but I came across your channel a few days ago and I completely fell in love with your vibe thank you for putting out this great content you've given me many different recipes I'd like to try
There's a local Mexican restaurant that makes tortillas. They serve them like rolls or biscuits with melted butter and honey. It's SO good! Now you make me want to try making them myself
I made the butter zucchini pasta! I added some things we had at home that I knew my family would like. After I drained the pasta I transferred it to a casserole dish. Then added one can of cream of mushroom, some pasta water,some left over shredded chicken and mozzarella. I baked till the cheese was melted and we topped with red pepper chili flakes. Sooooo good!!!
I have been buying in bulk lately ( especially meats) as I find that I can portion the meats in baggies like you do and then make meals based on the baggies..... For example I bought to large packages each of pork chops @ 1.29 / pound, Chicken at 99 cents a pound and some ground beef at 3.99 / pound in family packs. This will be enough meat meal to feed us for 2-3 weeks ONLY luxury is a rack of NY strip steaks that I will divide myself. ( Cost on sale was $5 pound... I remember when I use to get the rack for $3/ pound ) We no longer eat out at restaurants so we splurge on steaks for a once a week meal.
I love that you’re doing both budgets.
You are an amazing young lady and your family is too! Keep being you and showing us how to stretch that dollar. 😊
Thank you so much for showing real items that we can afford and cook. You use what you have and don’t tell us to go buy a fortune in items we can’t afford to make good meals. I’m so grateful for you being real!!!
I am seriously jealous over wanting that fry bread lol. You outdone yourself in this one Brooke. You made me so hungry !! I've always been intimidated to try other kinds of bread but you make it look so easy. Can't say it enough, GREAT JOB!!!!!
I was prepping chicken leg quarters the other day. It was a big job, becasue I had 2 bags. but it will be worth it! I put around 2lb of meat in each bag and added a sauce to marinate and freeze. We have bbq, herb & garlic, OG Italian dressing, and some kind of peppercorn parm sauce I got on sale (that fancy sugar free Hughes brand marked down to $1!!!). I think it's supposed to be a wing sauce, but we're working with what we have in this house, haha. I had soem different BBQ sauces so we just did a bag of each. Excited to see what you come up with for the next video! Oh, and we're doing a stock up today at Aldi becasue the kids are almost out of bread and we can't have that in this house... Babies gotta have their PB&Js.
Right ❤😂
💜
Great work on this content. The curry dish may inspire me to dig out my jar of curry powder and get to work! I've been keeping a veggie scrap bag for a few years now and it really makes a difference in the broth. I cheat and make chicken broth in the instant pot. The main problem with homemade broth is that it spoils you for the store bought kind, LoL.
In my area you can go to the office at the farmers market and buy $20 worth of tokens for $10 of food stamps to stretch your food budget. Most farmers markets are open only one or two days per week but if you’re willing to drive to different markets you can double your $10 food stamps every day. I also found when I visited my dad in the country that the individual farms who have stands on the side of the road are almost half the price for fresh fruits and vegetables than what I would pay at my local farmers markets near the city. I found this video so helpful because it really shows ways I can feed my family cheaper than I ever thought possible.
The TV chefs will tell you that spices last 6 months to 1 year. I can't afford to replace all my spices once a year, so I just use them until they are gone. In my experience, they just become less flavorful so you use more of that spice. So I'd use that 2-year-old curry, too!❤❤
Thank you for doing both versions of a $35 budget! It's inspiring to watch you take simple ingredients and make such a variety of delicious food. :)
love your videos and love the way you handle the haters. You sure can tell who has money and who is thrifty in the comments. ❤
Yes you can, I put taters and carrots in my Chicken Curry, plus green peas at times. Tastes really good!
Good idea to keep veggie scraps. Another tip for even richer chicken stock is to first roast the bones/meat and veggies before boiling.
How do you do that?
@@DebbieandEddieBFF oven roast 350-375 until golden and almost cooked through, and then transfer to pot of boiling water and cook until falling off bone. You’ll note the deeper roasted flavor in the broth.
I absolutely love your kids' reactions! They just love everything you make. This was a great video ❤
Recently came across your videos. I just saw this one, I'm mexican and pinto beans are a staple food for our culture. Beans are eaten in different ways with many foods. To vary your leftover pot of beans, you can also add chopped crisp bacon, and/or chopped hot dogs, + chopped onions & tomatoes (sautéed or not- optional) and finally garnish or also add to your pot some chopped cilantro. They have a great taste as well, you're taking them from bland to flavorful. Give it a try. You can also mash & refry your beans with pork chorizo and serve them with scrambled eggs, or on a tostada, burrito etc.. Thank you for your meal ideas.😊
I had tears when you used that awesome looking broth to boil noodles!! BTW Does Dusty have a single twin brother that is interested in moving to Wisconsin? LOL
The pinto beans, cornbread, fried potatoes and green tomatoes dinner looked sooooo good to me! Makes me want some!
You are amazing at putting recipes together for what you buy. It’s a great talent. Thank you so much. ❤❤❤
Girl ur amazing. With such high prices on groceries ur the best!!! I luv ur philosophy ' use what ya got'!! I subscribed to ur channel. Ur precious! ❤
Hello. Could not pass up a $35. Challenge and my 1st time joining you.🎉I have to say, I have been watching Budget Weekly Meals from East to West, for some years now. Never has anyone else ever baked Fresh Bread at all, let alone baked Fresh Bread 4 different ways in one week, and you were feeding 5:people to. It was so unexpected and yummy looking. Yes to subscribing and I plan to go back and watch your other videos as my time allows. I want to thank you for entertaining me today, so unexpectedly.😊 Have a blessed week.
That was a truly fantastic $35 budget video. I'm impressed, and will definitely be making some of these recipes.
I’m a single person. No kids. My parents had no money problems when I was growing up ( unlike I do now as an adult). So I didn’t see ways of saving and such when it came to food. Ur channel is so nice. ( I love ur family when they make a cameo lol) and ur really teaching me how to be more intentional , more creative and how to save in the kitchen! Ur meal ideas are chefs kiss! Thank u for all that you do! Eating cheap doesn’t mean u can’t eat greatttt!
So sweet how appreciative your boys are!
All the men of your family are cute (and so are you) but I love your middle son’s facial expressions and reactions to your food. Love your channel!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Brooke this is Sue, when making Navaho bread aka fried bread, make a hole in the middle, cooks more evenly.
GIRL, You weren't playing when you made that Stroganoff recipe!!! I just made it but added sliced mushrooms and onions. This stuff tastes like it came from a bougie restaurant!! OMG this is amazing!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Love your channel ! Love your simple and easy recipes. Even though they're simple, you manage to elevate them with spices and other ingredients that don't break the budget. Also love that your kitchen is the real deal - not some overly sterile, everything in place, with counters that are bare - that's not how most of us live. Thanks for keeping it real, and for passing along your cost effective and easy recipes.
One of my favorite meals growing up was chicken in rice with cream of mushroom in the Dutch oven. Most of the time the chicken would be breast this would be a treat.
If my husband wasn’t going to be home in a few minutes with Mexican food I would jump through the screen!!!🎉
😂
Brayden was so cute when he looked at you while eating that tortilla. His expression was priceless. You can tell your kids love you 🥰
you always make great videos. I was watching this one while making dinner. you know a great budget buy is a spiral ham. I'm not even a ham lover, but I buy one in November, and again in April, $1.29 a pound. they're already cooked. I discard that sweet packet glaze, I don't care for that. I cut it all up...freeze between parchment paper sheets in baggies. egg bites,wraps,sandwiches,omelets,great in beans...or like tonight, a nice little chunk beside my cabbage and squash. God bless you and your family, and to the family here ❤
You are so simple and I love that 💕 God bless you for sharing your home cooked delicious food with us and showing us how to save money and still have quality meals. Praise the Lord for leading me to your channel 🙏
You're such an awesome mom!.... Love all you do!😊
Thank you!!
I have a community garden and it makes a huge difference to my grocery budget! Your meals look great. I’m eating a lot more beans because of you and your yummy options for meals. Oh! Your cheap beef and broccoli is now on my regular meal plan. 💖
I love these long budget videos. I watch them with my coffee when my baby sleeps. Also looking forward to start a garden next year for the first time in my life because we are buying our first house/cabin. Thank you, Brooke for all the tips.
Lovin the squash stir-fry. Our garden is feeding us the same produce. I just add some sliced mushrooms and garden chives on top. My family would happily eat everything you made!
Chicken curry is a staple in our house. I always use potatoes. Carrots are not my husband's favorite so I use green beans.
Being realistic is using what you have available to you… A garden is not always available to everyone but neither is all the grocery stores that you have. People have to accomuwhat they have available able and substitute what they don’t have… you are very conscious about the specifics but the goal is to show people how to cook and shop on a budget.. the actual product will vary bc people will have different options and pantry items. You are a blessing to watch and should go easier on yourself about the specifics… you are feeding a family of 5 and doing so many things behind the scenes… keep up the great work🥰😂
As long as it tastes good it is authentic. Love the tortilla recipe and the green tomatoes. Thank you for reminding people to plant a garden. Even a small garden in pots saves you lots of money and gives you fresh vegetables or fruit.
Even if they can't grow a garden they should be able to stock a pantry. Stocking a pantry when times are better, buying extras when things are on sale really help when you have a short week. Loved this week didn't feel like a budget week at all. Even with the garden adds I bet this would be close to a 50ish budget which is amazing in this economy.
Loved the long video! Great info. Your boys are precious.
Great video! I love the longer video!
I follow the old Weight Watcher rule of 1/2 banana / day. I also do that with Avocado's it really stretches the cost while still providing me with the nutrients.
Hello Brooke! Great meal plan! Love that pork shoulder carnitas! What I did with the leftover carnitas this week is when I cooked them in the crockpot I added a sliced onion. So I took the juices, shredded carnita meat and onion and added a box of chicken broth and a big can of hominy . Yum made some pozole . Added some lemon juice and season it the way you like it! Thank you for your ideas!❤
Loved the video Brooke🎉I grew a lot of container veggies this year..dill, cucumbers, tomatoes, garlic, chives, little onions, lettuce, bell peppers so if there is a will there is usually a way! If not perhaps folks have a good Amish produce stand or something similar 🌸🌸Thx again Brooke for always trying to help others.
My grandma who was a wonderful cook and Happy to share her recipes would take squash and zucchini and sliced it thin but not super thin then fry it in a skillet with olive oil and onions once tender add diced tomatoes canned or fresh then add shredded cheese at the end when you are ready to serve. Kids loved it actually the whole family loves it and you can substitute Rotel if you like a little spice and as always season while cooking with just salt and pepper
We've been enjoying taters from the garden too. They are so good!! Love fried green tomatoes, too! Day 3 is a good old country meal. All favorite foods!! Your tortillas look delicious! Your enchiladas look really good. Love beans n rice!! You did great this week! 👍❤
Hiya, my beautiful friend. I just love it when you come in and stay for an hour.!!! I love your longer videos, cause I just love y'all so much.! ALL of that looks delicious. Will be making the tortillas for sure. Much love to you and your amazing family!!!
This is my favorite budget cooking video! Thanks for all of your hard work and sharing this with us. Take care.
Indian fried bread with beans and taco toppings is the only way ive ate that kind of bread i will have to try it your way😊
I just found your channel, and I appreciate a person who doesn’t have to always be frugal, but chooses to be. I also really enjoy watching you and your kind spirit and how happy and at home you feel in the kitchen! Thanks for your content! ❤
Brooke you have three wonderful boys and a supportive husband. You also have a good understanding of other families who might not have a garden, a husband and wonderful children. You’re touching lots of lives who see what are the possibilities. Thank you!
Awesome meals! Everyone looked happy with their meals! Thanks for sharing! Love all of you!
Your video was better than I expected. I love how you used your garden veggies and berries. That inspired me to want to grow a garden. And, you made healthy meals for cheap! I love it! Thank you!
Blackberry pie roll ups…your berries with the leftover cream cheese rolled in leftover tortillas and baked with butter and sugar!
The homemade tortillas are great with butter and cinnamon sugar while still warm. Instead of a second video with out garden veggies you could just check the current price for veggies and say how much you saved by growing it. people really like to save. Thanks for another great video. I really like watching.
I have to tell you. I dont really even cook but, I watch your videos every week to see what you've come up with. I just adore you. You are so kind. ❤
