    Excellent! I can truly celebrate Christmas now because Lisa has posted her Dollar Tree Christmas Dinner video! I look forward to it every year!

    Dollar Tree is really missing out on a great opportunity for you to make a recipe book for them.
    Thank you for taking the time to do these videos and including us in your holiday celebration.

    I didn’t think the loaf would hold its shape without eggs, but it certainly did!

    I lost my job during the pandemic and it was a few months before I got a new one. I thankfully had savings and was living in an apartment at the time with low rent, but it was tight. Thanks to you and The Wolfe Pit, I had no problems feeding my wife and myself during those months.

    Yes, many people live in "food deserts" and if I did not have a car, I would be in one myself. We only have the Dollar General within walking distance. Absolutely no other grocery stores. Many areas are becoming like this. There is also an issue of being able to actually walk there if there were one close enough as it is dangerous in many of these places where the local governments are too cheap to put in a safe walkway/side walk. That said, well done to you for yet another amazing meal creation from those items.
    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to my favorite YT girl!

    I’m super excited to try the lentil loaf.
    If you want to try something else with the asparagus and mushrooms, try cream of asparagus soup with mushrooms! All from dollar tree. 3 jars asparagus drained, puréed add 1 cup chicken broth and 1 cup evaporated milk or whole milk. A pinch of nutmeg and 1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning. Bring to a simmer over low heat. Sauté the mushrooms exactly like you did for the crostini. Set half aside to garnish the soup bowls. Mix in half of the mushrooms and top with the remaining half. Made two large delicious bowls of soup! I also topped with a little grated parm I had in the fridge

      Never have had asparagus from Dollar Tree.I can't eat lentils .There is something about them, had a slight allergic reaction.I would follow the recipe but use beans.

    I just love the Farmer John 8oz rolls of sausage from the Dollar Tree! It cooks up as good as any of the big name brands and is just enough for 2 - 4 servings of sausage gravy for biscuits. My Dollar Tree had 4oz Harry & David gift basket size coffees this year...four packages equals 1lb, so at a $1.25, that's only $5 for a pound of really good coffee. They had several flavors, but I liked the breakfast blend best.

    Hey LD, I love your holiday dinner episodes. I never miss your Thanksgiving or Christmas Dinners. I also get a dose of good vibes whenever you show a Parmesan Cheese product from Colonna. The company was started in 1918 and to this day it's still made in my beloved home town of North Bergen, NJ. I hope you, Andrew, Your Mom, and the kitty have a happy and healthy holiday season.

    Merry Christmas to you and yours. I’ve never heard of Lentil Loaf but I have all of the ingredients stockpiled from other videos of yours. And, thanks to your teaching previously, I have some saved sausage and bacon drippings. My DT has also stopped carrying the bulk sausage so a little of the frozen sausage drippings will add flavor to the loaf. Thank you.

    Im very impressed with how you turned the lentils into a loaf, i never know what to do with my lentils but my fave dish to use them is in sloppy joes to replace the meat. Great video!

    • @joycef8443
      @joycef8443 10 місяців тому

      Mine usually end up in a “stew” with leftover veggies and tomato and kale from the garden. Sloppy joes sounds like a good vegetarian plan.

      You can make a great chili with lentils instead of meat. There's a recipe for an easy Indian curry using lentils, it's really good over rice. I forget the Indian name of the dish.

You're so inventive. I just love your content. It's all so good and I really loved your Superbowl video last year. I could watch you come up with cost friendly appetizers and football food all day. 😊 Hope to see you soon and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
