    Had to pause the video to comment. Your one handed pasta draining because you have the baby in the other hand is next level. I was there just a few years ago and appreciate how much work it is to balance a job, parenting and making awesome meals at home for your family. You are rocking it!

      I was going to comment on the same thing. I have 2 yr old and due next month with our second and I so remember baby on the hip cooking and its right around the corner again.

      @@brywalker7199 congrats! One handed cooking, eating, helping your toddler, pretty much everything is a lot. Just remember there is always pizza 😉

    As a single mom of two little ones in an expensive area with a very tight budget and income I look forward to these videos so much.. You give me great ideas
    Also I watched your other video a few weeks ago about amazon kitchen gadgets and got myself that grey clip on strainer and I love it I've already used it so much and it's so easy

    Such an easy Chicken and black bean quesadilla... sprinkle a bit of cumin and chili & lime seasoning on the chicken, and that's perfection in 5 minutes... I love it 😀

      I was thinking taco seasoning, but yes, any seasoning would work!

    When I make quesodillas with the canned chicken I always cook it in some butter and put taco seasoning on it

    You could add a handful of mini pepperoni to your pasta salad.
    For more protein. Or some cubed cheese

    They all look delicious and I will be giving them a try very soon!! I added up the cost to make all these meals based on Walmart prices in my area (Napa Valley, CA) and the cost was $38.81. But that is better than my average weekly hall of $75-$100 per week! I also have some ground beef in the freezer I will make with the spaghetti for protein. But this looks yummy and I know my grandsons will love making the pizzas with me 👍😁👍

      Use store brand products instead of name brand products. Buy the food that is cheap at your local Walmart store.

    I have made the Texas toast pizzas. The breakfast bowls look awesome. Healthier alternative would be to air fry the potatoes and use egg whites only.

    Just an assumption on my part, but if you don’t wash your peppers before cooking them you should consider doing so as they are grown using a ton of pesticides. The residue from the pesticides remains on the skin until washed off
