Are yall fans of the jump-cut editing? It's a little shaky I know, because I'm holding my camera but it makes it so you don't have to listen to me breathe. Let me know!
Perhaps you could use a small tripod and set it up on the kitchen counter for a more stable camera shot?
@@lorig.7127 The angles are weird but that might be the solution. :-)
I love the cuts!
Budget Girl I prefer no jump cuts
No jump cuts... kind of makes me queasy
Guess what!! I’m debt free! I had some savings and realized it was more than my debt. So I decided to pay off my debt. I could have waited until my next paycheck, because now I only have a small amount of money in the bank until my next paycheck, but that entire next paycheck is just for me!!
In 6 months I paid off 16,000 of student loans. 12 months ago it was 26,000 but I made a lump payment at the start with the money I had leftover in the bank from taking out more student loans than I needed. Thankfully I didn’t use it all. Over 65% of my expenses in 2018 have been toward my student loan. Now I’ll have all that money to save and treat myself occasionally. Thank you for encouraging me to be frugal so I could pay off my debt quickly.
Proof that one can eat well and remain on budget! Love these vids!
I love watching your Aldi hauls. Aldi is my favorite place to grocery shop. Their prices are amazing, and I love that the have so many healthy, plant based options there. We eat very well in our household, on a budget. It can be done!
YUM! I've gotta try that soup. Cleaning out my freezer is on my "To Do" list during Winter Break. Just 3 more days - YAY!!
I had taco soup last night: ground chicken, blk beans, corn, tomatoes, 1/4c salsa and taco season. I love your meal plan board
I’ve been watching you, Sarah, since you had about 1200 subscribers. It’s been a joy to watch you become debt free & blossom as a person.
Thank you so much for hanging with me for all that time! I'm truly honored.
I’ve been watching you for a couple of years now, and it is so exciting to see how hard you have worked to get where oh are!
I do have to admit I miss your meal prep vids from the beginning(ish)! I know they probably take a ton of time but I used to watch while prepping in my kitchen 😊. Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks for sharing. I waste so much money to make my fridge look 'full' or buying things just in case I have someone over (which I never do). My goal for the new year is to spend less. Have a great weekend!
That's a great goal!
liking your style of video lately, the variety is great- budgeting, meal planning, flowers, food prep.. and of course your great sense of humor. I planned to make taco soup next week, so will try mixing in the refried beans.
Thank you Andi!
Love that small chalkboard!
I think your fresh flowers look very nice. For the table bouquet, you could try putting the tallest sprigs in the center and then building the bouquet all around it so there isn't a front or back to the bouquet. Just something to try next time. :)
Looks great!! I'm making my copycat CFA Chicken Tortilla soup again this week!!
The soup looks good! I make a few different ones and freeze some so I have a variety to choose from for the week. It can easily be defrosted from the night before.
I love your 5 can taco...the middle of Michigan has been Cold!..this week I’ve alternated the taco soup with Pasta e Fagioli...
I make my own oven fries.I marinate potato wedges in canola oil,balsamic vinaigrette,garlic powder,pepper,Italian seasoning,steak seasoning,and a bit of salt.
That taco soup has been a staple here since you originally posted it. I add rice to make it go further.
That's a great add! Rice and beans!
Umm that’s a fantastic idea and I’m annoyed with myself for never thinking of that!
have you ever tried taco soup over rotini noodles?
I’ve never had Taco soup. Sounds delicious. I’ll try it for sure.
I think you did a good job with the 🌸 I like the little vase. Cute. The taco soup is on my menu rotation for the winter.
my taco soup is similar. I put a couple cups of frozen mixed veggies in mine. the soup flavor hides the vegetables and its a sneaky way to get extra veggies in your diet.
Love your channel you are just the cutest person!
Soup looks so good. I need to add that to my lunch rotation in the new year :)
Can you do an air fryer meal prep? I'm trying to get into more meal prepping. The problem is that I do not like to cook. LOL!
I've never thought of breaking down flowers to make multiple bouquets. Genius!
At 1st glance of your menu board, I thought "Sara! You've gone and LOST it Girl ~ Monday 'Beer Awards'?" Oh my, oh my, on closer read it says 'bacon avocado'! Ok, Ok, we're good. I got markdown flowers this week too with an extra bunch of pine green filler. It's a Beautiful thing! It's very gloomy weather here, so flowers are Nice. I am thankful for you. Have a good week & enjoy that soup! I had chili yesterday, yum.
yeeeeeeeah I'm going to make the taco soup next week!! haha it looks awesome and I've been needing a new "cold weather" recipe!! Thanks friend! XOXO
Gah I love your handwriting! Also, whenever I have left over money in my Aldi budget I always grab myself some flowers :)
Yay! I love flowers!
Your handwriting is lovely!!
Girl, we shop at the same Aldi! lol I also love HEB! ♥️
Mason jars for lunch storage, yes please! I have a ton I can try to incorporate this week!
I've been using them for years! They work so great and never leak!
Great haul! Merry Christmas, BG!
You too!
I make a similar soup. It lasts a looooong time and is delicious.
Taco soup is so good! I use corn chips (i.e., Fritos, although generic brands) rather than tortilla chips. I like it that way. Yum! I need to make it again.
I use some other glass dishes rather than mason jars. It just seems like the mason jars would be way too hot to handle coming out of the microwave!
I love these kinds on videos. I just made pupkin veggie chili last night
Our Aldi's has brioche buns, took me a bit to find them though
Hey! Nice food video! I will check our aldi for that champagne cheese next time we go! You look great-- I've been watching your videos for a long time and I'm happy to see your progress. Woo!
I love your taco soup, I ate it all the time last winter 🙂
That's so cool! I'm so glad you like it!
Very cute menu board.
Gorgeous flowers for a gorgeous girl.
OH my the soup looks delish!!!!!!
I just found your channel, I just sub. To simple Christian lady channel and she talked about you so I love to budget everything and thought your channels would be helpful. Your a very beautiful young lady. Have a fantastic weekend God bless you and your family. 🎄🌟✌👍
I think you should say you are Budget Girl aka Sarah as that is the way we know you 😊. Love your work BG.
Do you have two meal planning boards? Because your other one is what I have. I'm making Cauliflower bites with ranch dressing to dip it in, and salad.
i do! I have a smaller white one I now use to scratch down stuff i need at the store :-)
Does the food last 5 days in the fridge? soup looks great, I make a similar version.
Yes! but it also freezes well if you're worried. I put in filled to the freeze line in jars or in pint ziplocs.
I was thinking that too .. I usually freeze the last half of the week because no more than three days is my rule 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha! I so feel u at the beginning of this vid.
I'm an Aldis fan! My last 2 weeks grocery bill for 12 meals plus fruit, vegetables and nuts for snack was $154. This is for 3 adults.
Ha, I'm actually making a version of taco soup next week! This week was a potato, broccoli, and ham soup.
Hi I’m your new subscriber. I’m trying to save money so your grocery and menu is gonna help me.
I have to get back to staying on my strict budget. Wish we had Aldi closer. It's about 30 min away in another state. We just got a Lidl, though.
I am curious how you reheat your soups. Do you just microwavethe jar (without the metal lid of course) or transfer to a bowl and reheat?
Either, but if i heat in the jars I put it on a sturdy plate first as it gets hot. We have paper goods in the office and I have a couple plastic bowls there.
Oooh! I'm gonna get me some Champaign Cheese! Nice! I am the WORST at meal planning. We all have a different schedule on a daily basis in this house. Never know who will be home, or when. I just barely remember to take something out of the freezer before I leave in the morning, or afternoon. Sometimes I'll be working from home and before I know it, boom! It's dinner time and everything's frozen! Boo!
Budget Girl, do you add a can of water with each can of beans you use?
no, I just eyeball it. probably about 2-3 cups total
Are you watching Chilling adventures of Sabrina? I love that show. I want to try your taco soup it seems simple but tasty.
yes! I love that show!
Can I make a suggestion? When you put words on the screen they need to be on there longer. The way you add the letters means you cannot really read the words until the end then it disappears before I can read them and I’m s pretty fast reader. 😊
I'm always happy to hear constructive criticism! You got it! Longer text spots from now on :-)
the only rule to arranging flowers is, do you like it?
Where did you find the meal planning board?!?
michaels on fall clearance!
@@BudgetGirl thanks!
You guys eat Mexican food alot! I just beng watched your videos & now I want some 😂😂
Hi, BG, Forgive me if you've already answered this (a zillion times!), but where did you purchase your black meal-planning board? It's so cute. ~ Also, isn't it nice to be debt-free and able to purchase things that bring you joy, e.g., your flowers? :-)
Michaels on fall clearance! And so nice!
@@BudgetGirl Thanks, BG. Gotta love those CLEARANCE sales!
Soup looks good. Do you drain the corn? TFS!!
Yes, I drain everything.
I started shopping at aldi cause of you. The only thing I don't buy is produce cause my store is always bad. 😐 I buy their organic milk and eggs. Can't beat their price. Btw, do you still eat the penguins with salsa still? Haha just curious after seeing your penguins. 😁🤗
I do! And Jacob teases me constantly about it.
@@BudgetGirl haha that's love for ya!🤗💕
Great video thank you for sharing this.
BTW, I made your taco soup last week. OMG. Keeper!!!
What is string cheese?
Can you do a veggie week please?! My food shopping has gotten out of hand ahaha £70 (inc. nice red wine and gin) this week :/ help!
I love this idea!
I ❤ me some Aldi! You rock BG!
100th Like Whew Hoo!! Love you Budget Girl!!
I'd like you 100 times if i could! Thanks for watching Lori!
@@BudgetGirl Awe! Thanks Hon!!
What a coincidence.we had turkey tacos last night. Tonight, I might have a veggie burger.
Instead of rotel brand chili's,try aldi version.same thing. Same with refried beans. Also, veggie burgers.love the original ones,and chipotle.don't like quinoa.Haven't yet tried Thai,Asian,or soy,or kale
Awesome
🌸🌷🌼🌺
Jacob seems like a really nice boyfriend to you! Are you guys planning on getting married?
You’re very cute. Made me lol
Not a fan of the jump-cut editing -- in general in any video, not just yours. Makes me feel nauseous. Thanks for all your videos and all your inspiration.
Sarah you are an amazing person💚 be my wife!? Please!?
