    I make your cheese sauce and then I dunk random veggies and crackers into it. My husband who is not DF/vegan ate it and he said it's pretty good and asked me to make nachos with it too. WIN! 😀 I made chili tonight and had it with cornbread. YUM!

    Great ideas! Dollar Tree meal idea videos are great for the many people who live in food desserts.
    A suggestion when cooking: Always sweat down your onions before adding other ingredients. You will be amazed how much better your dishes taste. You can steam fry the onions by adding a small amount of water or broth in place of oil. When your onions are translucent they are done, and you can add your other ingredients. Thanks for the great video! ❤

    Sadly our Dollar Tree in North Georgia is now at $1.25, most grocery stores offer canned beans at way below this cost. I still love Dollar Tree but probably will not be buying canned goods there anymore. Love your meal ideas! Thanks for sharing 😊

    I used those meal prep containers to take my meals on the plane when I was traveling. No leaking at all, it was really easy to eat directly out of them and they cleaned up well in the airport bathroom. Plus when they were empty they stacked together and took up less space in my bag.

    I might have missed you mentioning this, but you can get store brand canned beans & tomatoes at Walmart or winco for around 60-70 cents sometimes less, if things are super tight.
    I love love your budget videos so much! Thanks for putting these together for us!

    This is so excellent! I love all of these, especially the cheese sauce! So quick and easy, and you don’t have to destroy the kitchen when you make it. And I love that these are all pantry staples. My pantry challenge ended a week ago because I ran out of food..lol lol. But I managed to get through a whole month, so I’m happy with that. Some of the other two month pantry people have pigs and cows and massive bags of everything in their freezers and pantries 🤣 They verge on hoarding prior to the challenge, which kinda defeats the purpose. Love you and have a fantastic week ❤️

    I always bought Goya chickpeas at the dollar tree because they are the best and cheaper than Walmart. Now that our dollar tree is $1.25 I think they are about the same as Walmart. I need to check Target though, I don't think their prices went up yet.
    Your chili looks good. 🙂

    Great idea! By the way in case people don't know, GOYA beans last the longest canned vs others and they do not lose their shape and cook up nicer than the rest!
