I HAD all four corners but the management company for my landlord forced me to get rid of both the prepper part and the freezer. They use a generic lease that forbids having a freezer, washer dryer or dishwasher, because some of their properties (not ours) are electric included (government subsidized housing). And they called the prepper part "clutter". They threatened to evict us if we didn't get rid of them. Yeah we're looking for another place, but they're hard to find, and prohibitively expensive right now.

Another thing you can do with pasta to lower it's effects on your blood sugar is to cook it then refrigerate it. That turns in into lower glycemic resistant carbs. And the bonus is that it remains resistant even after reheating. So if you want to stretch a meal with pasta but you're diabetic, refrigerated and reheated pasta is the way to go.

However, my beautiful 19 year old bride (I married her 48 years ago) and I are awaiting our 15th grandchild. Suddenly, it has come to her attention that "food shortages" could lead to hungry children! She has nearly made our backyard a farm. She's purchased a Freeze Drier and, suddenly, my "hobby" of fermentation has caught her attention! Though she'll likely never be a commenter, she's now a viewer. Your calm, reasoned presentation has helped her realize, "I can do this!" Thank you!!

#4 Oats : For the families who like instant oatmeal but need Gluten Free - the flavor variety is very limited plus all the added sugar. I have discovered I can pulse the GF rolled oats in the food processor, portion them out into baggies with dried or freeze dried fruit and nuts. Viola! Instant oatmeal that can be made just like the store bought stuff.

I grew up on so many Italian comfort food which, when i look back, were really extender meals. Peas and pasta, cauliflower and pasta in sauce, straccitella soup, frittatas, chick pea fritters(panelle )just to name a few. They were delicious and nutritious. Mary, you are so right. We have to look back at our ancestors and recreate what they did ❤

A healthy extender breakfast (or dinner) is half a bag coleslaw in a lightly oiled pan sautéed with soy sauce and a bit of chili paste. Add 4 scrambled eggs and mix, let cook, turning once, and you have a nice Chinese style omelette. You can put sriracha instead of chili paste. I'm teaching my grandsons healthy, cheap, filling meals for college.

I love red lentils, especially with chicken soup, it hides in the soup and breaks down very quickly. Red lentils also work well in spaghetti bolognaise, cottage pie and any red meat dish, casserole or stew. I also make a lot of Indian dishes, a lot of Indians are vegetarians and they have some absolutely lovely dishes that do not require lots of ingredients but they are very filling.

@@robertlavigne6560 Walmart carries large bags of red split lentils in the ethnic foods section. We use a lot of it in Indian dishes, as a protein in spaghetti sauces, and for making lentil loaf, as opposed to meat loaf. Lentils have a higher level of protein than beans. It's worth trying as a meat extender. The brown or green lentils make a good vegetarian "sausage". I make mine with oats, Liquid Smoke, and sweet Italian sausage spices.

@@alinewright1093 I always add beans to tacos 1 or even 2 cans pintos usually (per lb of meat) but black is good too (2-4 cups cooked beans) And a can of petite diced tomatoes per lb of meat Onion, garlic and green pepper also- these are just for taste! Then add lettuce & black olives to the taco or burrito on top the cheese that’s on the meat. Lots of ways to extend Mexican food but gotta have that meat base IMO and dairy (cheese, sour cream) just MAKES many of the dishes. Fajitas with lots peppers and onions Carnitas with the loads of veggies in the tortillas or on rice List goes on n on Indian food is good for this too Only problem- produce is getting just as unaffordable as meat!!!!!

I went shopping at Walmart this afternoon and paid over $3.30/lb for the fat ground beef - $33+ for 10lbs. Then I noticed that there was not one single whole chicken in the place, nor were there any chicken breasts either! For price comparison though, I picked up two 10lb bags of thigh/leg fryer pieces @ only $4.58. I was glad to find them too. Then I immediately went to the isle with beans etc. and got several 1lb square bags of lentils (which was all they had. . .how weird, a little square bag). I plan to stretch the hamburger meat with lentils and/or mushrooms as you mentioned in the video. I also called and told my sister about your channel and ideas so she may check you out too. Thanks for the helps, Mary and be well.

I feel fortunate living in an area with a wealth of Asian markets. Rice comes in more types than in grocery stores such as red and black. Also it comes in bigger quantity containers such as 20 and 50 lb bags. Our Costco also carries these larger bags. The Asian markets also have a nice variety of dry mushrooms Dry beans are plentiful and reasonably priced at the Mexican markets. But some of my favorite beans are Gordon beans here in California. A bit more expensive the shear variety of types are impressive. There is one store in town I can get these otherwise available on line.

So I finally decided to grow this and gave her a path of it. And yup, she loooves it. Just waiting on a new juicer (I brew my old one up lol) so I can juice it into wheat grass juice. But ya, spelt is omg delicious. Also if u soak it overnight and then cook it with oat milk or other types of milk, it makes a wonderful porridge.

Hi Mary, I know in some countries, people use ground bulgar wheat as a meat substitute or an extender ingredient as well. I have not tried it yet but hopefully soon. Thank you for your informative and extremely helpful videos.

You are a gem. Such a valuable information, I already used some of those, years ago, to add more fiber into meatballs, however, obviously it helps to cut costs, too. Thank you.

Funny, I was making a huge batch of meatballs while listening to this video! It is a gluten-free recipe that uses almond meal and a bit of coconut flour. But I love using oats, because they are undetectable. Also, one of my meatloaf recipes calls for cooked quinoa. It really works, but I realize it is more expensive than the other extenders you talked about. I love your videos.❤

Fabulous discussion and tips on ways to save money. And stretch meal's by making sure our pantry includes basic staples. I particularly liked your emphasis on not throwing anything away! Finding clever ways to use everything and having a stocked pantry with inexpensive meal extenders... Excellent video Mary 🥰

Very good advice to help make meals nutritious and healthy, I’m alone ,I have stocked up on foods I use. I’m diabetic but I use extenders in small amounts . I was raised by my grandparents who lived through the depression. Boy!!!! did Grandma teach me how to stretch meals.

I wanted to say I have been working on building up my prepper pantry and have to say dry beans have been in very poor selection anymore. I was expecting to stock up on dry garbanzos, red kidneys, lentils, pintos, black beans and split peas at my local Walmart like I always have. Wow, Walmart has really changed the dry beans they stock now! I was literally only able to find black beans, white northern beans and pintos…that was it! Everyone needs to be seeking out ur bean varieties and stocking up! There is a shortage or a difficulty of some sort for stores to stock these as plentifully as they used to. I did find my varieties at a local Food Lion, but the amount they had was very limited. I will be slowly building up a backup of all my beans this year.

Hello Mary. Love your videos. I am extending my cooking abilities. I am a good cook but find your hints and tips amazing. One quick note. I freeze my flour when I can buy on sale. My sealer machine bags work well. I usually make a package of flour for what will be called for in my bread recipes and a little more if I need it. Thanks, Emily

Another $$$ saver....I found Durham semolina thin pasta, 20 oz, made in America for $1.25 at Dollar Tree...also penne pasta, 20 oz box, same price. Both are Columbia brand. I'm very lucky in that I shop in a small southern town. Within 2 miles there are 5 major grocery stores and 2 different $$ stores. I can shop the weekly sales at each store and not use alot of gas. One major problem, I live 10 miles away!! Oh, well!!!😀
