I was wondering/hoping, can you please do recipes for someone with high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Not separate but for both.
I love how you kept it very healthful even on a budget skillzzz
Trying the chorizo casserole tonight. Will let you know how it goes over.
Thank you , must say u gave me some video ideas to try
Brittany is ABSOLUTELY delightful 2 watch!!! HOLLYWOOD BOUND!!!😊
Bouillon cube could cause cancer.
A favorite growing up was my grandmas lentil bean soup. It was basically like the black bean soup and with added keilbasa.
No garlic cloves in the chicken noodle. I'd have done that.
“Nobody likes to eat yucky food” I’ve never heard anything more true haha… I don’t eat food if it doesn’t taste good so I agree haha
I appreciate the reduced-price meal ideas. I will say though, my hungry 4-person family would gobble up all that food quickly and ask for more. Teenagers eat a lot LOL I love the idea of sweet potato Mac n cheese, definitely a great twist on butternut squash Mac n cheese. Thank you for sharing!
I've made that chicken casserolle for years! i thought it was the only one! lol Not exactly like that but close enough. Also a great cheap huge feeder, slow cook chicken pulled taco meat in the slow cooker if u wanna use the three chicken breast for that instead of the soup or casserole, feeds a ton
NM ❤️
The soups look good
Well the olive oil just blew the budget! LOL
Don’t add salt when cooking beans, they will cook faster. Add salt to your dish after the beans are cooked. I just cooked 5 year old dry black beans in an hour and a half by not adding salt.
Hi there, there is no way that $25 would stretch that far in Australia! Probably be at least $50.
It all looks delicious!
I’d love to do something like this, but groceries where i live are three times the cost of hers 🙁 box of shells cost closer to $2 or more, rice $4, beans $3..
God help I'm broke this month too
Ohhhh, Julia, you didn't buy milk with your $25 budget. You cheated, but I won't hold that against you- LOL. The recipes look wonderful. I have both black & pinto beans & now I have recipes for them. Thanks.
you could of saved a 1/4 of your chorizo and cook with your veggies for your bean soup ,it adds a lot of flavor yo the black bean soup. Great job saving money.
I absolutely love your channel! Thank you so much for all the great recipes!
