You are my lifesaver. I am old and handicapped. The shortened, but healthy, meals you make are so easy for me to do, because they do not involve standing a great amount of time. Thank you.
that makes me so happy to hear, I hope you got some ideas!
Outstanding ideas. So happy that you tried them first because I probably would not see them or not be impressed with them. Also very impressed that everything is not a taco or burrito or even hot and spicy.i do not do heat and occasionally I like Mexican TX food but not all of the time. Make your Cookbook I use to have a book of recipes that I received from friends. Funny the occasion that I ate it came right back so I go a twofer. The Cookbook is priceless. You do not have to remember so much when you get old. 😅
@@DollarTreeDinners Can you make some Dutch Babies?
I love this channel..she helps so many people eat a decent meal on a tight budget..thanks so much for all your hard work Rebecca 💛
Thanks so much!!
Shes amazing.
Agree. Times are so rough this helps
@@cynthiagriffy9206they most definitely are .
I agree.
My Grandma had 13 kids and when I was a child I got to spend part of summer with her. She used to say she could stretch a dollar til she had 20..lol. One of my favorite stretch meals of hers was sausage pancakes. She lived on a farm ergo meat, eggs, milk..were all handy. She had a Hugh garden so in summer I got to pick fruits and veggies. She made pancake batter and added cooked sausage, cheese, and berries..then after cooking we added her homemade syrup. What a feast..a little meat, but she could get about 14 pancakes
I am tickled to have found your channel a couple days ago, and admit I have kind of binge-watched you since! I’m a retired teacher living alone so I have a retirement, not quite poverty level, but I seriously don’t have an extravagant grocery budget once all my bills come off the top. Really, what you do is JUST what I need, ideas to stretch that grocery budget, but that aren’t yucky, and your recipes look actually good, and by the look on your face, QUITE good!!! Like you said, we who struggle don’t have the budget to experiment and LOSE! I appreciate you!
I just found her too and am also binge watching 😊
When you took a bite of that cake, you went into another dimension 😂 I could tell instantly that it was the best thing you've ever tasted.
So now... I am also making this cake. Today.
I bet this would be great as a muffin or iced cupcake.
Absolutely waiting to see how you liked the cake 🥰🥰
Just another great video, besides helping us so much with affordable, easy and delicious meals, you are absolutely adorable, obviously, such a nice, caring person Michael's a lucky guy!! Would be fun to see him sometimes taste- testing some of these great meals you make on a budget, or making one of his favorite meals with you, if that's something he feels comfortable with, the camera is not for everyone, you are a natural at it, such a great job, easy to see you really enjoying doing this, lucky us!!. Thank you!
Yeah. Her eyes glazed over and everything.😂 If traveling to another dimension while eating cake isn't a good endorsement for a recipe, I don't know what is!
I am going to make all those ,they look so easy and yummy
You nearly broke my heart when you said you wished you’d had friends or family to take the cake to during the holidays. ❤
Rebecca, I just had the most fabulous two nights of dinner, and this video was the direct inspiration. I had a half a head of cauliflower, plus a half a bag of fresh broccoli florets, two potatoes, and an onion on hand, all of which needed to be cooked soon or they'd go into the compost. In the fridge, I had a bag of shredded Parmesan a half a block of cheddar, the tail end of some heavy cream, and some butter. The cupboard yielded a box of chicken broth and two country gravy packets. I chopped all the veg, threw them in the pot with some butter, salt, and pepper. Once they were soft, I added the chicken broth, both packets of gravy powder, and cream, and once that got bubbling, all of the cheddar and half of the Parmesan cheese. It was phenomenal! We ate half that entire double batch last night.
Tonight, I decided to mix it up a little. We had a big day out and were ravenous, and soup alone wouldn't satisfy. I added the spare can of the Prego Alfredo sauce you used in the Alfredo chicken mini pizza recipe from another video, mixed in some raw macaroni, threw it into a casserole dish and baked it on 350 for half an hour, then topped with the rest of yesterday's Parmesan and baked another 30 minutes. We absolutely destroyed that entire pan of macaroni this evening, just devoured every bite.
Your videos have inspired me to cook again, when depression and chronic pain have kept me out of the kitchen that I love so much, far too often as of recently. Thank you for all of the hard work, love, and creativity you put into your videos; you really are doing some amazing work. 💖
That sounds great!
I happened to have all the ingredients for the Knorr quick lasagna, so I made it according to your adjustments. We just finished it and it have to say it was quite tasty, easy and fast! Give it a try everyone! Thanks for sharing another fun video!❤
so glad you tried it!
I am going to try it, next week, unless I get to store before then as I've been sick.
Wow! I am binge watching after stumbling onto this site last night. Your gentle spirit makes it so relaxing and fun to watch you in the kitchen. The recipes are simple, delicious and affordable. 10 out of 10!!!❤
To make a chocolate cake look fancy, my Mom would take a paper doily, place it on top of the chocolate cake and then sift confectioners sugar on top. After removing the doily there would be a pretty lacey pattern on the cake. 😊
I bet that was super cute!
My g'ma did this too 😢
Love your cooking! Instead of dusting the cake pan with flour, use cocoa. No more white marring the cake.
Super idea!
I use sugar instead of flour. If flour or baking cocoa are on the side of the cake, that's not tasty IMHO. If you use either granulated sugar or powder sugar it works the same as flour and if it doesn't dissolve into the batter, it's tasty 😋
Great idea. Thank you for your comment
Good idea for ppl who are worried about that! Personally I would pbly sprinkle the powdered sugar on it like she did, so the white from the flour wouldn't matter too me😊❤
Over 65 yrs old and you are teaching this old boy new tricks now that I cook for my house making life easier on my end and new things also love sent yur way!!!!! From Ohio
Rebecca, I think that the broccoli cheddar soup could be used ( before adding the extra milk/water ) as a filling for a pie or pasties. I think it would make a nice vegetarian dinner, served with mashed or new potato and either peas and carrots, or a nice salad. Yummy.
Much love and respect from the South East of England. xx
Maybe add some diced chicken and get a pre-made pie crust from the fridge section of DG....make a "Chicken and Broccoli" themed pot pie🤔
Finally. Somebody else other than me using a gravy packet into soup! I've been doing this for years. I also add Brown gravy mix in beef stew. Once, I used a mushroom gravy mix in a vegetable soup. Loved it❤
Great idea!
I definitely recommend keeping those recipe clippings! My mum had a recipe box full of those clipped to index cards with her variations and improvements. She used to keep them from packaging, newspapers, even little coupon-like things they had next to ingredients in the grocery store. I've done the same thing for years, and it's so great to have!
All of these recipes look amazing. I think I might have to try that lasagna one first though because I love lasagna and never make it for myself!
I think it would be so fun to find a bound notebook and tape them in there along with notes about how I made it, or a recipe card box too, actually I think I might order one of those, I love trinkets like that
@@DollarTreeDinners if you bought some of those clear plastic baseball sleeve sheets you can add the little clippings along with a note slipped behind the recipe into the divided sections ! They already have holes punched to put in ringed notebooks , very inexpensive and can be bought at any comic book store that sells baseball cards!! Each page holds a dozen pockets I think or more !
@@DollarTreeDinnersI asked my stepsons to decoupage a plain 4" binder as my cookbook cover when they were little. It is still my cooking binder to this day. I take photos of the recipes and print them. I write changes with dates and each family member's score from 1 -10, along with notes on what to try next time. After a few iterations the recipes become Donna's version/recipe.
Me too.. was thinking of adding ricotta to the Last min lasagna
I have several “back of the box/bag” recipes that I keep in a notebook-they’re great little finds for sure!!
“This cake makes me wish I had friends.” Feels like a great endorsement of cake. 😂
All these recipes look great and I’m excited to try the lasagna and cake later this week.
Budget/no fridge tip for anyone who is not opposed to soy: instead of (or in addition to) ground meat, use textured vegetable protein (TVP). It's much cheaper than meat, has a good amount of protein, comes dried (so no fridge/freezer needed), and has a long shelf life. To use, just add boiling water (I add bouillion to flavor it) and then add it in to your recipe like you would ground meat. It works great for pasta, tacos, sausage dishes, etc. I've served it to a lot of people who love meat, and they can't tell the difference, especially with a lasagna or spaghetti bolognese.
I can not find tvp cheaper than a pound of meat near me in oklahoma. Any suggestions?
@@brittanylavoiephotography1450 just to be sure, tvp is dried and will be much heavier when prepared, in case you werent factoring that into the price vs ground meat
@brittanylavoiephotography1450 Try canned lentils. I use the great value organic canned lentils ($1.69). I mix in a full can to 1lb of ground beef for things like tacos (you truly don't notice it at all), spaghetti sauce, burgers. They don't have much flavor but it stretches meat and takes on the flavor if you leave the fat drippings in there. A 1:1 ratio is what we like best here but play around with it! Even my kids will gladly eat lentil tacos with no meat in there at all. Just make sure you rinse them well before adding in. Shake off excess water
@@brittanylavoiephotography1450 it’s only $4 for a big bag in every Mexican store
If@@brittanylavoiephotography1450 if you live near winco I think they have in bulk there
I made the broccoli cheddar soup for dinner tonight, and my family said I can never make it any other way again! 😋 Thanks for the recipe!!
i don’t ever go to dollar trees but i love your videos. your soothing voice, warm personality, etc is enough to make me watch. now i feel like going to dollar tree
You def should!
I used to work for a major food manufacturer and they had an ENTIRE floor full of employees who came up with new products along with recipes to use the products in. At the time, we called them ‘Home Economists’ because that was what they had their college degrees in, I’m not sure if there is a new designation for that job. It was fun, when they wanted opinions they’d automatically ring every department with an automated message that said ‘Taste Test on the Eight Floor’ and you’d hear the elevator start going off with ding ding ding… It was so long ago that we had an actual elevator operator. 🤷🏻♀️
This sounds like so much fun!
I used to make a breakfast casserole or what our kids called leftover casserole. Diced potatoes, onions any leftover grilled meat, mushrooms, diced tomatoes or pico de gio, leftover grilled veggies, cheese, eggs. Great with toast, biscuits and tortillas.
Sounds great! I love a good breakfast casserole and the best part is usually you can prep them the night before and bake in the morning
I do this too but just make it into a "scramble" or "hash"
Please do more of these!! One of my favorite videos you’ve ever done :)) this should be a series!!
You never cease to amaze me with your adventurous spirit and culinary brilliance. You're giving us the most entertaining and yet useful, helpful videos over anyone else on this platform. I commend you for your efforts, and thank you for your articulate yet warm demeanor. You're fast approaching 100k, Congrats!
Gurl! You are a budget meal GENIUS! Your content is so awesome and SO NEEDED right now! I just found you about a week ago and I've been binging 😂 Thank you for what you do!
Me too! Found her two weeks ago and it's my new source of entertainment 😊
same here! i found her a week or so ago and i love watching the different recipes. i never knew Dollar Tree had so much to offer for food!
I found her today 12/7/23 and binged all night 😂
Me too! 😂😂
I can tell you have a lot of experience as a home cook and you also have a good instinct for it. And your vibe is very approachable too. I really appreciate that!
Tell me why I got so emotional you trying the cake and just absolutely loving how amazing you did. You've come so far and I thought the dollar tree meals were my favorite but trying new recipes on the back of food products is definitely my favorite now! You're so inspiring and you help this single mama of 2 make quick and easy meals! I can not wait to try all of these recipes thanks to you ❤
I just love that your meals are the ultimate budget comfort food. Sometimes when you’re broker than broke, it’s a wonderful thing to have a delicious meal. You rock!!
Love this channel with 2 boys and my Hubby I love all these reasonable priced meal ideas. Trust me I feel like my boys and husband eat 24/7.
Love that! I can totally understand, I’m glad I can give you some easy ideas
Love your channel. You’re such a good soul! Not everyone understands the circumstances people may live in, and if they do they’re judgmental. But you are accepting and helpful. Thank you for your solidarity!
This has been the best video idea!! I think we've all looked at the back of packets and cans and wondered if those recipes were actually any good or not!!! Would love to see more of these!!!❤❤❤
Great start to a new series, Rebecca!! I love your conversational style... You make your viewers feel like a friend hanging out in your kitchen! ❤
Sacramento, California USA 🇺🇸
I'm telling you: I love this format. It's like a food channel network show!
My mom was always using recipes from the box or can. You cook like my mom taught me. She became a great cook! Her mom was always a great cook during my life, she didn’t know much when she married, but 7 kids later, she was a rockstar.
For ppl living in "food deserts " ..meaning not enough food stores.. most have dollar type stores: family dollar, dollar general, dollar tree and the regional market ones. Most have the same type of foods. So this type of channel and way of cooking is so helpful to them.
Rebecca and her cooking videos are a godsend for a single male on a fixed income
The recipe for porcupine meatballs from the back of a box of beef Rice-a-Roni has been an often requested meal since my kids were small. They are grown and on their own, but I still make that dish for me and my boyfriend, using ground turkey instead. Also the cheesy chicken casserole recipe on the back of the broccoli cheese soup mix from Dollar General is outstanding!
I just ran to store to buy all the ingredients to make ALL these recipes! Got home and made that lasagna and let. Me. Tell. You…… AMAZING!! My hubby was blown away! Thank you for sharing these recipes 😊
Update: made all the recipes and they are great with the exception of the cake. It tastes good but not a good texture for me. Fun to make anyway!
My grandma had a recipe book exactly like you're talking about creating, only recipes from the '50s and '60s. My sister and I covet it. 😆
What is the name of the recipe book? I would LOVE to have a copy!
Best cooking channel! She is so real and down to earth
I just realize that you are cooking with electric. That in itself is a talent when you are a custom to cooking with flame.
Hi Rebecca! I love your channel. Dollar General is by far the closet store to me, but it is limited in terms of ingredients. Since those biscuit bombs turned out so well, I'd love to see a dedicated video to meals made with convenience doughs like biscuit and crescent. I know you would come up with the best ideas.
I made the cake with homemade leftover cranberry relish and gluten-free flour. So good and definitely a keeper! This morning it had more of a consistency of fudge because we refrigerated it overnight, but that's fine, too. Thanks for the recipe!
Ever since seeing this video 3 months ago, the last minute lasagna has become a favorite in our house. My fiance and I make it often. Thank you for all your videos!
Loved your face when you were eating the cake lol
I absolutely LOVE your face when you bite into a new recipe that you love! I don't even need to wait for the review; I already know that I need to make it, too. The lasagna and chocolate cake faces you made were epic, hahaha! Another home run video 🥰
You like to cook in the kitchen
@@J0EBIDEN_DADDYyeah, with Cornpop!
I don’t know why but the look on your face with the cake brought tears to my eyes 🍰😊 you just looked so happy!!! Well done on today’s video 👏
Made the lasagna last night for dinner, and we enjoyed it so much that we ate leftovers for lunch! Thanks so much for sharing!
When I was a kid, we would eat stale bread that was really toasted in the oven, soaked in coffee, then covered in heavy cream and salt and/or sugar. It was my favorite breakfast!
I'd like it with sugar ❤
@@marystrenke3050 that's how I usually liked it when I was younger but the salt version really grew on me as I got older 😋
Rebecca, Your face says it all! When you like something your expression is delightful! As for the Broccoli Cheese soup, I definitely start with a bullion cube/chicken base for the broth. Also, I would break up the broccoli and possibly add some instant potato flakes or leftover potato, etc. to enhance the viscosity of the soup, and adding the cheese at the last possible moment is best. A good broccoli cheese soup is a gift! I have used xanthan gum to thicken when I'm "keto", but it's not nearly as good as the potato. I can hardly wait to try the cranberry cake, but I've got to find a keto method, but I definitely have an idea (coconut flour)! Take care and have a blessed day 💖✝
That cranberry cake was giving me an existential crisis 😂😂 I want to make it again I wish I had somewhere to bring it
@@DollarTreeDinnerswould you feel better about making it into cupcakes and freezing as "meal prep", so you have a treat when you feel like one?
The way you didn't even say anything after you tried the cake, just immediately went in for the second bite made me laugh. I love these longer videos too!
Something magical happens when you mix Alfredo sauce with marinara! Yum!
Country gravy mix can also be used to make easy potato soup. Just take a bag of frozen "potatoes o'brien" (the cubed hashbrowns that have onions and peppers) and dump in a large pot with 6 cups of chicken broth. Simmer for 15 minutes. Then mix the gravy packet with a cup of milk and stir into the broth and potatoes. Cook until thickened and you have 6 to 8 servings of soup. Super easy. I usually add a few carrots and half a sweet bell pepper, diced finely, along with the hashbrowns for some extra flavor and nutritional value. But it's fine without them. Top with crumbled bacon or some chives.
I've use the pioneer biscuit gravy mix as a base for. My homemade broccoli cheese soup. I use dried thyme and rosemary as my seasoning. I also use minced celery and a little shredded carrots.
Do you get a carroty taste in the soup?
@@kenyonbissett3512 you're not using that many carrots. You're using the carrots, onion and celery as your first layer of flavor. I saute this 3 in butter. Then I add the thyme and rosemary.
@@sherryarmstrong4683 got it thank!
Every single recipe you made today was seriously awesome. I too have clipped recipes from cans, packaging, and other places and use them. The lasagne was an unexpected nice surprise. Can't wait to make all of your recipes, especially that cake! 😋 ❤
Audio worked just fine throughout the whole video 😊
I love it when food packages have recipes on them. It would be awesome if you decided to make more of these! I really want to try these recipes now 😊
Such a great idea for a video series! Now I know what to do with the can of cranberry sauce I forgot to serve on Thanksgiving!
This is such a unique little niche of videos. I admit I read the names of recipes on packages and think it sounds so good, but that's where it ends. You have inspired me to try a recipe. Thank you! Love your channel.
I am glad that you are branching out to other dollar stores for ideas. I love your show.
That ground beef grease hack is ingenious!! I love your channel. This video is awesome. Thank you!!
Thanks so much!!
Yay obscure meals!! 🎉
You know what’s crazy?? I brought a packet of that country gravy to work today and a package of the buddig beef and bread (we only have a microwave) so I was thinking “I bet Rebecca would approve of my budget lunch/dinner today”!
And then you posted!!😂❤
Seeing you so happy after trying each item you cooked was nice. It was apparent you truly enjoyed the tasting of each item. I absolutely cannot wait to try all of these myself. Thanks for sharing and for all the hard work you put in to get your videos out to us.
Girl you need a spatulator! It helps break up meat into smaller chunks and they can usually be found at dollar tree. Just found your channel and enjoying the recipes. 😊
I love your dog nosing around looking for anything you dropped.
If no one has told you today, you are awesome!!! Love all of the recipe ideas. I am definitely trying that lasagna. Great job, Rebecca!!!
OOh I'm so excited! LOL I NEVER pay attention to the recipes on packaging. Maybe i should start! Great video!
You definitely should! They are easy and quick most of the time
Without this video, I would have never tried any of these..thanks
I used to have a cookbook that collected a ton of recipes from packages....found it online, it's called Best Recipes from the Backs of Boxes, Bottles, Cans and Jars... there's a lot of content there!
This was so fun to watch! I’ve made those stuffed biscuits before but I made sausage gravy and stuffed the biscuits with the sausage gravy and eggs. No cheese. I like the idea of dipping them too! Definitely gonna try the lazy lasagna. I think my family would love that one. Thank you Rebecca! FYI Rebecca is my little sisters name. 😊
Love seeing your pup come through the kitchen every know and then in your videos. What is his/her name? 🐶🐾❤️
A video of yours just popped up into my feed one day, and I am SO glad and grateful it did. You are a joy and a delight to watch!! I’m 67, retired and on a fixed income. My daughter is 27 and a single mom. Grocery bills have become ridiculous, so these recipes are life savers! I especially loved this one. Thanks for providing such a wonderful service to everyone. I also love what you do to help out that elderly woman and her son. May your kindness and selflessness come back to you a hundredfold, darlin’! 🥹🩷
❤ I love your channel. Your 'can-do' spirit and your 'being real' are great. Some orher frugality channels don't seem genuine. I can't watch them. One request please do pantry and freezer meals thank you. 😊
I'm definitely trying the lasagna. The cake, I wouldn't make a frosting for it, I'd make ganache, it'd be the perfect use of that leftover dark chocolate.
I am going to try these recipes. I have tried the Wendy's chili recipe and really enjoyed it!
Love that chili recipe!
Bravo Rebecca. I have watched your channel using Dollar Tree items and have admired your resourcefulness and compassion for those on tight budgets.
I decided to try the last minute lasagna and was so happy with how it turned out. I did add about 1/2 cup of spinach to the noodles , Florentine style.
I am definitely going to try the chocolate cranberry cake.
Thanks so much for all you do.
The genuine joy and surprise on your face said it all with every one of these recipes. I can just imagine a holiday morning with those biscuits, a snowy day inside with the soup, and a busy day where take out doesn't sound good for quick lasagna. As to the cake - set me down with a quart of ice cold milk and a few pieces of that and I do believe I'd be a happy girl! Great job on all of these.
It’s so nice to hear someone say that a cake doesn’t need frosting. The frosting is the biggest reason I don’t like cake.
Fun to see you get so excited! You are humble and thoughtful and relatable. Loving your content and can't wait to try!!
Many fine recipes have come from the back of the package! Another great thing about these ingredients is they have a longer shelf-life than fresh items. As I eat smaller portions, I find that refrigerator management is becoming difficult. I would TRY the fudgy cake with whole canned cranberries: the fruit bites would contrast with the chocolate bites.
!Two nights of supper here! Plus dessert both nights! Night one, soup and sammies. Night two lasagna! Maybe even some leftovers for lunch the next day (depending on how many you're feeding). Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
lmao the oven rack burn mark on the wrist is killing me. I'm so glad it's not only me that does it
We do stuffed sausage gravy biscuits. Make and mix the packet gravy with the crumbled sausage then divide it in mini muffin tins and freeze once they're frozen stuff them in the biscuits like you did here and bake. They are so good and the best on the go biscuits and gravy lol
I just used the knorr broccoli rice and cheese this past week for Thanksgiving. I added more broccoli to the mix and upped the liquid a bit bc I decided to bake it. It was an experiment but it turned out well. I'm guessing most of the recipes on the back of some packages are from people who experimented and left feedback with the company. Great video! I'll have to try the cake since I didn't use my cranberry sauce this past week.
Omg I've never heard your accent until you started making the country gravy, and all of a sudden, your lil southern twang came out! How cute 😂❤
Stuffed Biscuits and Gravy? You are a genius!
I’ve got a friend who doesn’t eat eggs for breakfast and loves the Pillsbury recipe for sausage crescent squares. I tried them and thought they were okay, reminded me of biscuits and gravy. I’d likely make them again. One of my kids loved them and she finished off the leftovers.
I could definitely see that, I feel like you could omit the eggs on these and just stuff them with sausage and cheese, but definitely sausage and gravy biscuits vibes
Okay, you really need one of those meat masher things that has the 4 prongs! Your bendy spatula 😳🤣. I’ve been making those biscuit bombs a long time. They are excellent for a group breakfast too! Super video!
That is what I use as a meat masher too!
@@debbieforseth254 it’s definitely the one kitchen tool that I didn’t know I needed and can’t live without now!!!
I think about that everytime but I never think of grabbing one when I go to dollar tree 😂
Came to the comments to say the same thing!
Update, went to dollar tree today and still forgot to check for one 😂😂😂
Mexican breakfast: huevos rancheros
Chop tomatoes, onion, jalapeño fry in some oil to make a sauce you can add a little water season w bouillon and let it simmer . Fry two eggs sunny side up . Fry corn tortilla . Place egg on top of tortilla and top w the salsa . You can have it w a side of refried beans 🫘 love that and super cheap
I have made so many of your recipes, which have been soooo helpful for a family of 2 adults on a $45 dollar a week grocery budget. This video was so fun, I ran to the store to buy the ingredients for the easy lasagna. I thought I might add 5 tablesppons of cottage cheese to the last layer because I have a little left in the container and It will give it a little ricotta like texture. Thank you for these!
I always use cottage cheese in my lasagna. We like the texture better, especially if you make ahead and freeze pans for future dinners. I find that ricotta lasagnas can sometimes get weird when baked from frozen.
There is a whole cookbook of back of the box recipes. It's nice because many of them aren't listed on the boxes anymore. Great video. Imgoing to try them all! Plus, they don't make a ton since i only cook for two.
Are you talking about "Recipes From Cans, Bottles and Jars"? I think it's from the 70's or 80's... It's a great little cookbook! 😊
Interesting. Manufacturer recipes tend to be hit or miss. Glad these all worked. They look amazing. I'm definitely going to have to try that cake. Might do a test run for the office before making it for the people I like. 😂
the last sentence of your comment cracked me up 🤣
binge-watching your channel has been an absolute delight! i love your realistic approach to everyday cooking. i'm not on that tight of a budget anymore, but i still appreciate all of the considerations that you give to those that are. you're just so positive and refreshing! keep being you! i look forward to your future
I asked my husband to make the biscuit recipe for my birthday breakfast! Oh my!!! DELICIOUS!!! Thank you!!!
Love this. I also recommend trying some individual savory cheesecakes for breakfast. Sort of like quiche but also different. There is one online for Santa Fe cheesecake that’s really delicious and I think Dollar Tree would have most of the ingredients ❤
Good recipes. For the cake you could mix with a mixer to incorporate the jelly better.
The breakfast pastries look amazing! They could even be made more savory for lunch or easy dinners, like fancy calzones or samosas. You could fill them with almost anything!
What an original idea for a cooking video! I'm impressed & I have yet to make these! I am making all 4 of these recipes, just on different days! I think the cake would be perfect for a Christmas eve or day desert! Totally do cocoa instead of flouring the pan, powdered sugar is perfect for this & then to dress it up even more, use those sprinkles that look like holly! Or plain red & green sprinkles! Maybe a small floral pick of a poinsettia placed on top! Thank you for what you do! You're truely helping so many people on a tight budget!
Really love this one! I've always wondered about that broccoli soup recipe. Going to try it. The cranberry cake, and the lasagna both looked delicious! Thanks for taking one for the team!
I wish I could be that friend you brought a cake over to! ❤ Fantastic video, good to hear this brought you some inspiration.
I want to thank you again for your videos that help us that are limited to a microwave, air fryer, electric skillet, but no stove . God bless you always.
I really like your idea of doubling and then freezing the breakfast sandwiches. Thanks for the video!
