I ate for 7 days on just €10… and it actually worked.
In my previous video, I challenged myself to see how many days I could make breakfast, lunch, and dinner using only €10 worth of groceries. After 5 days, I still had ingredients left—so in this video, I stretch those ingredients over the weekend and turn it into a full week of meals.
This part of the challenge is all about using what’s left, getting a bit creative, and making simple food feel like enough. I make easy breakfasts, do a bit of foraging in the yard, and cook a comforting veggie and bean shepherd’s pie using the last ingredients.
These videos started as a way for me to learn how to enjoy cooking more, slow things down, and save money—and I hope they can be a bit of inspiration if you’re trying to do the same 🤍

This challenge really shows how much you can do with simple ingredients if you plan well and get a bit creative.

There's now a lot of greens that are edible, dandelions maybe most common? But clover - I read that during WWII Germans made flour from clover flowers. Yep, of course I tried 🙄 It takes A LOT of clover flovers to make small spoonful of flour ( I made buns and used that spoonful). I decided that bees and bumble bees can have clover flowers 🐝🌼
(ok, I dry some clovers to make tea)
