Thanks for sharing these yummy meals. We have slowly started to make most meals without meat. Saves money and healthier. We love potato tacos. I dice some potatoes and onions and fry in small amount of olive oil until brown and soft. Use this as your taco filling. Use the usual other ingredients that you would for standard tacos. Cheese, lettuce tomato, sour cream and avacados, salsa. They are so good.

Connie, Thank you so much for sharing these recipes, I am going to try them all! Please share more of your healthy, budget friendly recipes in future videos, I would love to see! My tip for saving grocery money is to meal plan for the week. It really does help to keep the budget under control. I also cook in large batches as you suggested and then I freeze the left overs for future dinners.

Hi Connie, just came across your channel several months back. I love how calm and peaceful you are. I am trying to be more calm and stop and think before I speak and also make my own schedule, not live by someone else’s. I’m curious to know about the chocolate in the chili. I’ve never done that before. Thanks so much for your postings. 😊

I'm going to try some of these recipes ! Food here in Australia is beyond ridiculous for prices ! We are now looking at up to $4.50 for a gallon of milk (AUD)! I don't like meat and tend to eat more fish. I wish I was as calm as you Connie ! I feel nothing but a bundle of stress all the time, despite walking, I am looking for. Work too (also stressful) I can't work full time due to health issues (added stress)

Nice recipes! Never had mole chili, sounds yummy! To stretch my budget and add more veggies, I'll add celery and carrots to the mix and serve over mashed potatoes. Why do you recommend rinsing canned beans? I never do and don't mind the results. Seems like there's nutrients and flavor in the liquid. Is it because of salt? I don't have high blood pressure and cook mostly from scratch, so I worry more about not getting enough, especially in hot weather. TFS

Why would you put chocolate in chili?
@Allthingsglamxo
2 жыл бұрын
Because she’s calling it “mole.”However just because chocolate is added does NOT make it mole, not even close! 🤦🏻♀️ Mole is a very complicated sauce, over 25 ingredients (chocolate being 1 of them), takes hours to make and is steeped in deep tradition. True mole is so much more than just chocolate squares. Her recipe is chocolate chili.

I don't understand what you said at the beginning, you don't eat meat you just take out the pieces. You do realize you are still eating the meat with the renderings, all of that is infused in the vegetables and rice. I used to work with a woman many years ago who she referred to herself as a vegetarian and would order beef stew and take out the beef from the stew and eat the rest, lol I said hun you are still eating the animal! and on top of that she would wear suede and leather, it was the 80's.
