Hey guys! My Total was $12.29. Bringing my daily total to $1.75!
This is just an idea on how I personally would live on around $1 a day.
The challenge videos I watched for reference (because I had no idea what this challenge was at first), all ranged from $1.60 to $1.90 per day.
I hope this helps give ideas!! Love yall!

    Love this video. I am 80 and on SS. Food budget is very low. This type of video is a life saver for me. Thank you.
  • I swear folks from the south would never starve! 😂 Something can be made from anything you got!
  • @henny8883
    Your channel and Facebook page has been a life saver, I had no clue how I was gonna be able to feed myself after paying my basic bills, being so low income in expensive florida but Thanks to you and everyone that post great ideas on FB, I'm able to to pay all my bills and eat pretty dang good. Being so low income, and realizing you cannot buy enough food for the month can be a death sentence so thank you. Also Your videos are so upbeat and your kids are funny, it makes this process enjoyable rather than humiliating. ❤
  • Brooke, I learned this from a young cowboy 50 years ago. If you're eating pinto beans to the point you need a flavor change, you can add a turnip along with your seasonings to a pot of beans while they cook to change up the flavor. He would toss the turnip in whole then fish it out, but I grate the turnip into the pot. The flavor of the beans changes, but they do not taste like turnips. It's an inexpensive way to avoid flavor fatigue if you're eating a lot of soup beans.
  • Brooke…I am single…on social security…thank you so very much for this…it was amazing…everything looked really good…thank you again…!
  • Ideas: Breakfasts(oatmeal); Lunch( PB sandwich ); Dinners ( bean and rice burritos, Mac and cheese, )
  • @mollyscott329
    You can make the whole batch of beans, portion it out, and put them in the freezer. You can season them any way you want. Season for any type of cuisine you like.

    I love the way you show people how to prepare meals, not wasting any part of the food etc.. Believe it or not there are people that are grown adults that leave home and can't cook at all. I love your videos, thanks for showing people, how to shop on a budget. ❤

    We are lucky here in New Mexico, that our groceries and our prescription medications are tax free !!

    Boiled egg in the pasta salad would have been a good protein even
  • Liked that she substituted water for milk in the cornbread mix. Dont have to run to the store for milk.

    in college we live on macaroni and cheese with pinto beans in it. and sometimes some ground beef. then we made a chicken pot pie with chicken legs and can of mixed veggies and chicken boullion and a can of biscuits. lots of cinnamon toast for breakfast and sweets. and then the ole ramen noodles.

    I’m stretching my food dollars for one by intermittent fasting and eating only two meals per day. I’m so use to this I don’t even snack anymore. Just a suggestion.

    Brooke would you be willing to share your garden journey. I know you may have already started planting. But I would love to see videos on what all you grow & what you do. I like the videos you do for budget cooking. When you were getting the vegetables it reminded me that last year you would use stuff from your garden. I think people enjoy watching you. Your sweet southern accent, smile, laughter & how honest & real you are. I know when ppl start channels it might be for a specific thing. But clearly your subscribers enjoy all aspects of you are willing to share. From the camping & spending time with your family, to the fun game you & Dusty played. Tell the family hello. God bless you all all ❤
  • All looks yummy. I watched the video and had to get up out of bed and get something to eat
  • My family calls the egg scramble dish migas! My abuela would use diced potato instead of the onion & peppers. Now, when I make it, I use the southern style potatoes. 😊
  • A while back I had some bean soup I was tired of. I layered it with tortillas in a lasagna fashion. I did use a bit of cheese. It was so yummy.
  • @user-eb7uk2dx5v
    You could make some delicious bean cakes with the left over refried beans. A little flour and egg and mixed in your leftover beans and fry them up. So delicious 😊
