I've been so excited to make this video for a while, because I LOVE grocery shopping and cooking and I'm quite chuffed with the system that I've developed after 1.5 years of living alone (I don't know why "chuffed" felt like the right word here, I've never used it before in my life)
It's important to me that my food tastes good, doesn't take too long to prepare, is healthy, doesn't cost too much... whew, it's a long list of requirements! In this video I'm sharing with you my best tips for grocery shopping on a budget, for cooking food efficiently throughout the week and saving money by packing lunches, and I'll even show you EXACTLY what i bought in the course of one week living in Madird!

When you were describing this template I literally thought to myself "I'm paying this girl whatever this costs" and could not believe that you are gifting this to us. You are such a delightful person, I have watched your videos for years and you have become such an incredible creator. "I don't like to think very much" is sooooo real for me and I was recently thinking that I wanted to get a cook book and do recipes and it's actually isane that you are sharing this because my bf and I have been using Notion to track some stuff in our house. I clean with vinegar too, It's so good.
GIRL i’m from Brazil and i currently live alone and for the past 4 months my “meal prep” was a disaster because the whole living alone (w my boyfriend) + cooking + cleaning the whole house + UNI + work in a full time job WAS REAL CHAOS you saved my ass omg luv u❤
i just moved out from my parents home and i'm leaving on my own for the first time, your adulting dashboard is literally saving me! my meal prepping has been a mess and it's such a good idea to have the three basics always cooked and ready to go, instead of having to think oh i'll make these dishes. thank you!!! (also only 41€ in a week? girl that's amazing i'm above 50€ each week 😭😭)
nice ! I would add that i would be awesome to click on the receipt we want before doing grocery and notion would add all the ingredient in the shopping list
Thank you so much for all of these recourses! This template is going to make life so much easier and I've also signed up to skillshare thanks to you! It looks like an incredible platform. I'm so excited!
You’re videos are always such a delight ❤❤ I can tell you put so much work and attention to detail!! Love it!

aww thank you so so much! 💛
Hi!!! I LOVE your videos, they’re sooo relatable and as it happens I’m leaving to university in 3 months with a tight budget, it would be amazing if you could make a video on how to manage your finances using your notion template!!!
Good to know I’m not the only person obsessed with grocery shopping 🤌🏼
I pretty much do the same "meal prepping" technique! ❤
I'm from Spain but I still feel like 41€ is so freaking little. Well donee 👏. Does the fact that you live with your partner help? Like, is it the total of your groceries divided by two?

omg! really? haha thank you! (also this was only for the food! toiletries, cleaning supplies, etc. are in another budget category) I live alone, we don't live together :) When we do spend time together and cook together then we kinda take turns buying ingredients, so it should even out I guess 😋
u have inspired me for so many years now ❤

FYI - Coconut milk freezes fine, I freeze it in little silicone cupcake cases and them pop them in an air tight container.
Estaría buenísimo ver un video todo en español para ver cómo fuiste mejorando el idioma al vivir ahí!

I want your energy when it comes to shopping & cooking because it is easily my least favorite thing 😅😅 You've converted me to digital journaling, so hopefully by the summer I'll be an avid cook 👩🍳 ...one can hope haha

oh nooo hahaha! there are definitely chores/household tasks that I do not enjoy 😂 so I just have to try and enjoy the ones I DO like as much as possible!
You are such an inspiration 💙
Perfect timing because I currently have only 5.39 euros and I have to survive this week somehow until my mum transfers the child support money to me. Living life on the edge at the moment haha… 😅💛 I especially like the tip to go to different supermarkets and compare the prices. I‘ll be doing a trip to Lidl, Aldi and Netto soon then. 😂

Ooh Aldi is great too! my parents love shopping at Aldi in the US :)
So do you plan any sort of meals for dinner ahead of time or do you just go shopping every few days and get ingredients for whatever you’re in the mood to make?
Great to see you happy 🎉🎉🎉.
2:48 ?!! this is next level inspiring

Do you cook your breakfast on sunday, and eat the refrigerated food for 4 days? Is it safe?
