Over the years, I’ve made quite a few budget cooking videos. Over 75, actually. They range from single meals to entire week-long budget meal plans.
In almost all of them I traded my time to save money by “taking the long way”. More scratch cooking, few (if any) convenience ingredients.
But it’s December right now. And if there’s one thing we’re short on in December besides money, it’s TIME, am I right? So I set out to do things a little differently with this budget meals video: come up with some cheap, tasty meals that only take minutes to throw together!
I walked into my local Walmart with a budget of $20 and my mind made up not to spend any time later peeling potatoes or kneading homemade bread. Instead, I focused on how to combine a few convenience items, like prepped veggies and sauces, with quick cooking ingredients like sausage and eggs.
What I came up with are 3 tasty budget meal recipes, each serving 4-5 people, PLUS an easy snack-y treat! YUM!
So if you’re looking for an easy way to save money AND time in the kitchen, I’ve done the planning for you! Check out this video to see exactly what I bought at Walmart for this meal plan and how I turned it into 4 delicious recipes for a family with just 20 bucks!
