Yes, I’m commenting again. We talked about how hard it is to budget when your kids a little. When I became disabled at 33 our income went down to a fourth of what we were making. I was one of those crazy crazy coupon people, thrifted awesome clothes for my kids. I had no choice. My daughter turns 25 this month, and yesterday she told me that she didn’t understand my Ways when she was little but now she does and is so grateful that I taught them to her. She buys amazing things eats amazing food and does it all on a budget. Feels good when your kids recognize what you’ve done and know that you’ve taught them to do it too😮

Shirataki noodles are made from konjac, the root of a flower. I think its only the noodles are called shirataki, but I'm no expert. Shirataki is pretty much the generic version of Miracle Noodles.

I believe the stuffed shells are a seasonal item at ALDI. I usually buy a few bags when they're available because they're cheap and an easy winter meal. I will say they are a bit bland and quite soft. So use a really flavorful sauce and dont overcook them. I have a small baking dish for my toaster oven that fits six shells perfectly. I think they turn out much better if you bake them. If you top them with cheese (and you should), it gets crusty and brown around the edges. Yum!

The pasta shells...no, no such thing as " too much cheese", lol. ..a side salad, with the bread. ... perfect Supper or Large lunch . 🙂🍽 I do purchase a few Grocery items from Amazon, one of them being the Colavita diced tomatoes in a carton, there are 4 cartons, and these are great to have on hand .... I've used these for so many things, ...believe it or not, I made a great tasting Salsa with some of these, as I was out of Roma tomatoes. I've used them for Tacos, Sloppy Joe sauce, Chili, and of course, spaghetti sauce, ..but these are so convenient , I freeze whatever portion isn't used at the time so I can use it before I open another carton.

looking back at the biscuit casseroles: a very good southern cook (and we use tons of biscuits) on youtube described canned biscuits as a savory, basically flavorless scone--so, if you cook in a savory recipe (your first one), it will basically take on the savory flavors around it; if you cook a biscuit in a sweet recipe (your berry one), and yes, we cook in lots of sweet recipes, you must add some kind of sugar product or sweetner (honey, etc) to make the biscuits take on the flavor of sweetness (because they are basically savory/or flavorless--sort of like noodles)...so, that is why your first recipe was great, but your second recipe felt like it was missing something, flavor wise...dts/usa

I really enjoyed this video as I always enjoy your videos :) It always feels a little strange trying food items we are not familer with. I am also wondering how satisfying these are after you eat them. Do you feel full, like you ate a satisfying meal, does the feeling last. I wonder what kind of nutritional elements are in the noodles. I will definitely look them up. I had heard that most satisfying meals are made in one thirds. One third protein, one third carbs and one third fats, in calories. It is important to keep the over all calories adjusted to just what the person needs. And, it is not a good idea it seems to stay on keto, low carb, for a long time There are so many different approaches to eating these days. It is fun to try things though!

Thanks H TAS 😁 Glad you like this one. I did feel satisfied, but not in the same way as when you load up on a carb heavy meal. Ordinarily, I would make these with a ton of veggies though, and probably throw in some tofu, but I wanted to just try them by themselves this time.

I messed up and hit the wrong button a minute ago! Guess I don’t multitask as well as I think I do, (I’m making blueberry muffins while I watch)

😂 I can relate to that statement. Ok yum! 😋 I can almost smell those blueberry muffins cooking.

Costco did carry a similar product called (I think) Shirataki(sp) noodles…not sure about Sam’s club I don't have that membership.

Hello Michelle! Thank you for another great video. That egg dish reminded me I used to make this all the time in muffin pans but without the bread/biscuits. It is delicious! I'm going to have to make these again. I made a full tray and froze some (2 in each bag). You asked what we purchase from Amazon that you can add to your list. I always purchase Larabars. They are delicious and very healthy. Only 4 ingredients! I usually get the chocolate peanut butter ones and when they are in stock the variety pack. They come out to be $1.00 per bar. BTW, I just received my order a couple days ago with that clear storage container for refrigerating the trays of veggies with ice storage underneath along with some other goodies. Looking forward to using that! Take care and God bless 🙂❤🧑‍🍳🥑🥕🌶🍳🍜

you cannot keep canned biscuits for longer than a day or two without cooking them--even if you put in the refrig--once opened, the biscuits quickly get hard and then cannot be cooked well...once the biscuits are cooked, then they will keep for a week or more...dts/usa

No for this I used the regular oven, but the toaster oven would have worked. It was a chilly morning 😂 I get that coastal weather over here.

I went back and were watching this again. What size is that crock pot? It's super cute!

@ArdentMichelle 10 ай бұрын

Was this the Disney themed crockpot? You asked how big? That's a good question. I actually don't know. It's quite big though...so I think standard size whatever that is 😂 It's actually a relatives that I'm using.
