    I love cornbread. Here in Romania we use cornmeal mostly for making polenta. Your series is delightful and it inspires me to try out more recipes. I have a nightshade intolerance (especially bell peppers) and also to items containing nickel, so I don't have that many options. But when I do choose to suffer, it's for anything eggplant-based, mostly baba ghanoush salad.

    Liz, I love this video!! Your meals looked good. I would totally eat everything you made!
    I have a texture issue also, but for weird things like blueberries. I love blueberry flavor, but gag when trying to eat them 😂.
    You did a great job this week mama!! 😊🌸

    I’m from the south, so we eat sweet cornbread 😅 Under $10/person is pretty amazing if you ask me 💜 I love making banana bread with old bananas because it’s so easy to make. I also put them in my smoothies 😋

    Thats a lot of average. Lol. But I have to disagree. The average person doesn't track their expenses or budget their money. So that kind of puts you in the elite. So it sounds to me like you are living an elite life in an average outwardly setting. Keep up the great work.
