You did great! You only spent 8.39 you had 1.61 left. A couple of tips for you guys. Oatmeal is a great way to extend hamburger. I use 1/2 cup dry oatmeal to 3/4 to 1 pound raw burger mash into 3 or 4 burgers, they don't shrink and no one can tell it's in there. I also add oatmeal to hamburger when I'm making chili it just absorbs all that chili flavor and thickens the chili so nice and adds bulk for pennies. But you did great at 2.80 per recipe .46 cents a serving. Very good job.

Lentils are the BEST. Fast, cheap and so versatile!

One of the best and healthiest budget meal plans I've seen! I also love the use of lentils, which are one of my favorite proteins. I'm a vegetarian and can easily sub in veggie chicken or chickpeas for your chicken pot pies, and no need to add meat to your two lentil dishes. Thanks for the great video and keep them coming!

I’m going to try your chicken pot pies! Another budget friendly dinner I like to make is chicken and rice. I make mine with boneless, skinless chicken breasts, rice pilaf (rice-a-roni brand) and I can of cream of chicken soup. Shred the chicken, mix in the cooked rice pilaf and add the soup all together. It’s a southern favorite.

Sometimes some diced jalapenos or will add those just to my bowl. They are delicious and filling. If I have a potato or sweet potato I need to used up I'll dice it up an throw it into the lentils.

Hey sweetie, once again playing catchup and got the idea that when you drained the can of chicken you could have used that liquid and added it to your lentils for extra flavor or used it to make a dipping gravy for your pies. They turned out so good looking! I have never eaten lentils but bought some recently and I wanna try this dish and another honey baked lentils I saw on April's Home channel, cause I am a sucker for baked beans. You young ladies are so awesome with your knowledge and bravery to try the unknown!! Absolutely adore y'all, God Bless and big HUGS, Marilyn!
