You are so generous to take the time to shop and teach cooking on a budget. I love how you show mistakes and give honest critique. And most of all I love how fearless and creative you are.

My favorite, adorable, frugal, financial wizarding maven. Great videos for everyone to learn, especially younger and older people living on fixed incomes.

You are a terrific wonderful young lady. I'm almost 70 years old and boy I learn a lot from you. See you can teach an old dog new tricks

Having access to videos like this would have changed my finances entirely 20 years ago when I was broke and building up from nothing. As it is, today I’m a SAHM, my husband makes a very modest income, and we are trying very hard to pay off our mortgage - so videos like these help us save hundreds every month in food costs that we apply to debt. When I hear people say “it’s just as expensive to eat out as to cook at home” I want to shake them🤪

Bread tip-Let it rise in your oven with just the light on if your kitchen is cool.

I think the best part of your budget menu is it is fancy. Who would expect fresh noodles and peanut sauce as one of the dishes. You might stretch the dollar better than anyone I know.

I can say from experience that learning how to cook is probably one of the biggest ways someone can save money, get healthier, and eat better overall. It's not going to be an overnight thing, it will take time to learn, but it's worth it. I couldn't cook worth a dang prior to last year. I would literally open canned food, eat it cold. Or I would get precooked stuff and eat it, sometimes cold. For over five years, I had not touched my stove. Only used the microwave and toaster oven on occasion. I got tired of skyrocketing prices so, started to learn how to cook. One of the best things I've done in my life.

Someone may have already told you this in the comments, but when your bread cracks, it means you didn’t let it rise quite long enough. ❤
