Edit: Thankfully egg prices are back down so this no longer applies. 🎉 Budget tip: If you are making anything with eggs that is “scrambled” it’s cheaper to get liquid egg substitute now. It’s $4 ish at Walmart and is equivalent to 18 eggs. We still enjoy regular eggs sometimes but with 5 kids this makes omelettes and scrambled eggs go MUCH farther for less.

People who cook completely from scratch have the time & finances to do so. Rather than criticize someone who doesn’t, put yourself in their shoes. Julie has 2 small children & finding time to cook completely from scratch isn’t doable. She has little ones to take care of, diapering, bathing, clothing, feeding, washing their clothes & maybe diapers. The list can go on & on, & then take care of themselves, along with grocery shopping & all of the other things of running a household. Each person cooks the way they prefer or what works for them. My husband does the majority of our cooking because being disabled it’s hard for me to stand much more than a minute. So we use more convenience foods than we did when our kids were little, but when one spouse is doing most of the work load, it’s an easy trade off to use convenience foods when we can. Please don’t criticize KZitemrs or subscribers until you walk in their shoes. Let’s try being kind.

Another awesome set of recipes! I can’t wait to try the chicken and rice, it looks so good. And I’ve been wanting a meal recently that’s filling but not super heavy. We’ve had a lot of heavy foods over the holidays and I’m really want something that’s healthy but still feels like comfort food. That chicken and rice looks like just what I needed. And I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating- you always put so much effort into your videos and making sure to find the best deals and shortcuts to work with people’s time and budgets. There’s a lot of channels who focus so much on the flavor and don’t really consider that the average person can’t just afford all the extravagant ingredients they use. But you always look for the best bang for your buck, and never skimp on the flavor. I don’t think I’ve watch a video of yours yet where I Wasn’t excited to try at least one of your dishes. Keep it up, and I hope you and your family have a safe and healthy new year! ❤

Eggs are high because avian flu has impacted poultry farmers, supply and demand always affects pricing. Locals with small flocks haven't been as impacted by the flu, but birds tend to lay fewer eggs in winter, so that affects prices as well.

I know it's cheap but I personally don't feel comfortable using Walmarts products. They haven't made any promises to remove BPA or PFAS from their products which are known to cause cancer. Yes, it's cheap, but preventative care for your health could save you tens of thousands later.

Go somewhere else then. I've heard great things about Aldi. Shop around. I live in the southeast and we have Ingles where you can get advantage discounts and fuel points for money you spend being an advantage member. I also have a locally owned grocery store near me that only charges items at cost plus a 10 percent markup at the register. I don't like Wal-Mart either, but it's up to you to do your research.

This is a great tutorial! Thank you. As an added tip, we have older kids who are bottomless pits. I double the rice to the Spanish soup and even though it adds $$ I also add 1-2 lbs of cooked ground meat to the soup. It'll up the cost by about $7 but still $10-$12 to feed 5, 3 of which are my husband and two teenagers a big savings overall.
