    I’m with you on the pork. I don’t add sugar to my meat at all. I don’t get it. Lol. 🤣As a country (USA) most of us are sugar addicts and we don’t need to add more in! Although now I see you added quite a lot in. Dang and people want MORE sugar in that???

    As a small household I use these ideas to help with my meal prep. I have learned to waste less by half batching large items like chili or soup. Thank you for your videos and love your channel!! 💜💜

    If you have flour tortillas, you can cut them into chips. Fry them in a little oil & sprinkle them with cinnamon & sugar. We call them bunuelo chips. I like to make them when we have a lot of kids over. Everyone likes them!

    I just watched this vlog….I know you are doing budget friendly meals but since you’re hitting good deals that may not be there the next week do you ever freeze veggies and make freezer meals…..John Morrell meats are expensive….$8 for a package of bacon here. I saw the sausage ropes for $1 at the Dollar Store but it was already past the expiration date…..I guess the health dept doesn’t check them.
    I’ve been using my Gardenmaster dehydrator and drying frozen veggies from the grocery, greens for powder from sale items……
    Not to be an alarmist but they are talking about people not being able to go state to state without proof of shots but that may not work out and they may keep truckers from going thru the states……I’m just saying that if you could maybe you could inspire homemakers to prep JUST incase we have another run on groceries and shelves are bare …..I did a Walmart order yesterday and five items I needed were OUT OF STOCK….
    You are such a great inspiration to all ages and maybe having you say hey just for fun let’s do some prep of storage items…just saying…..
    I took beans then our pork roast on top of it then potatoes cut in half and I had many meals from all…..the pork burritos, beans with great flovoring to put over rice and then pork roast with added gravy and poured over smooshed potatoes from the crock pot.

    I have high blood pressure so have to severely limit my sodium- I can have up to <800mgs/day- NEARLY HALF of the American Heart Association’s <1500mg/day recommendation.

    It makes it really hard to be budget friendly when cheap jarred spaghetti sauce is about 500mgs per half cup and an egg alone, without salt is already 70. PS- ribs are 4000, many soups are 3000 and Italian pasta salads are 2500. Hotdogs without bun routinely have 700, hamburger/hotdog buns have 400… most salad dressings are several hundred, flour tortillas are 400. Unsalted and low sodium foods are usually quite expensive and many must be shipped. Even sodium free baking soda and baking powder are $10-13 each and you must use double the amounts!

    The only option is making everything from scratch and wintertime quality/prices are atrocious.

    I look back on being able to eat what you make and am envious of my past self, yet it’s better than death.
