I’d consider myself to be a Dollar Tree Pro so come join me as we cook 2 delicious dollar tree dinner recipes. Each recipe is very …
Great meal ideas. That looked yummy. And if you don't have a Dollar Tree. I'd keep an eye out on sales at your local store. Sometimes they will have good sales.
Tip to consider, throw the bones in with the rice, extra flavour and likely a little more meat to be found on the bones afterwards
Loved your teriyaki rice dish with spring rolls dish. Great job mama bear. ❤️🧄🧅
OK, I can live with that. Dollar Tree means nothing to me and I usually unsubscribe to channels that show me a pile of things they bought there. You showed us a small list of relevant ingredients and went on to show us what you do with it and I could do that from anywhere. Well done, you passed.

Great meal planning. I love Mexican food. I am all about easy recipes. I am 63 and don't feel like standing over a stove long.
Boil those bones!! Get that meat off!!
Great recipes that I can actually afford lol. I love to make refried beans with black beans.
I love these videos, and Dollar Tree ideas!
I just love pork ribs!
Totally love these!!
Love these ideas! I always make a bunch of beans in the instant pot and freeze the leftovers. They reheat great.
I was looking for those spring rolls at DT the other day.. Couldn't find them yet, but I'll keep checking.
Mariaaaaaaa!!!!!🥳🥳 Missed you! HI! I've been in the hospital. Long story
Great ideas! Thanks Maria ☺
Im a big fan of frozen peppers and onions not just from dollar tree one trcik I learned is to tham them under running water then let sit on a couple paper towels to absorb a large bit of that moisture
Love DT back in the day I used to find potstickers. Gave up looking ages ago but used to have a treat with potstickers and spring rolls. $2. And I had to eat it all coz it’s only good fresh…
cool
First one I can totally see myself doing with shrimp.
Great video! I find pork one of the cheaper meats lately. Though, if people can budget it, I would also suggest going to a nearby grocery mart and picking up bulk meat. You can get an entire chicken for 7 dollars or so and easily get a few meals out of that, especially if you use the carcass for stock/soup. Meat from the dollar tree is the only thing I am a bit weary on.
Please consider cooking your rice ahead of time and chilling it before frying. Cold rice fries so differently than warm or room temperature rice. The flavour and texture is so much better, and you'll get more of those crispy caramelized edges on the rice that you like.😉🍚
I have always loved DT! My hubby took a management job there and I told him that we are still eating DT meals!!! He gets lists sent to him all the time–He loves that (not really). How spicy is the enchilada sauce because I'm a wimp. You can make so many meals from the ingredients you have–mix and match dinners. Excellent video. More DT please!!
At $1.25 for 6 ounces, you paid $3.75 a pound for those poor quality ribs. Prices for pork in the grocery store vary, but a pound of pork in many different forms could have been purchased for that. I know many people rely on Dollar Tree for groceries but they deserve better than the low end foods Dollar Tree sells.
Yummy, as always ❣️
Refried beans would have been good on those tostadas as well.
You could have cooked the rib bones with the rice
Yum!!!!! Good job. I’m looking for these items at my DT!!! Thanks!😊
Smashing the beans and sauce will help stay on the shall.
‘A big fat nacho’ made me smile and you’re right!
Love Y'all 💘 😻 💜 💛 💚 🧡
When I make stir fry like meals,I call them "skillet scrambles"! Yes,I do those kinds of meals very often. Works great for leftovers,to remake ingredients! Win,win!👍
Yum I love your ideas
Hi Maria, God bless you and your family. Thank you so much for sharing with us this video. Every time I go to YouTube, I look for your videos, specially the ones from one dollar store. Love the recipes, specially the first one. I will totally try it as soon as I can get the Riblets. That one remind me of one of my favorite ones from PR (arroz con gandules y carne de cerdo). Thank you so much. Can't wait for your next dollar store video.

Kudos or thinking of others who live in food deserts
Love these video, Maria!
Seriously, I need to get to a Dollar Tree and buy some of those staples to keep in the cupboard, and everything you shared today looks delicious. Thanks for sharing another great video.
Keep the dinner ideas coming. I look forward to your videos!
I have much of this stuff on hand thanks for the ideas!
Spring rolls used to be 10 for $1. When they changed to $1.25 Tree they shrunk to 8 per pack.
These are such budget helpful and tasty looking meals. Thank you!
Hi Maria 👋
Awesome ideas, thanks for sharing ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great meals! Would love to see more Dollar tree meals! Thanks for sharing
I too hope they don’t raise prices again but given that they had never raised their prices from 1980 something til last year, that was a damn good run. There are some things that are better deals elsewhere but if that is your only store, it’s great to see what can be done with just those options.
I went from a once a week shopper there to maybe once a month for selected things only. I had been spending $100 a month there and now max spent at that store is $5. If they go up again, I hope they go out of business for good. Most of the items they sell are sold cheaper elsewhere. The extreme shrinkflation of their products makes purchases there extremely uneconomical. They treat their customers as uneducated idiots to be fleeced.
