Marinara sauce is my personal favorite because it tastes better than pasta sauce or pizza sauce
A great way to stretch that budget! Buy a bag of rice (1.25) a bag of dry pinto beans (1.25) A bag of frozen peppers & onions (chop up small) (1.25) a pack of tortillas (1.25) a pack of sausages (1.25) A block of the real cheese (1.25) Sausage, rice, half the peppers/onions for rice bowls (throw some beans in there because there will be plenty) Beans, other half of the peppers/onions and shred the cheese, tortillas- make bean and cheese burritos 7.50 for lunch and dinner Pancake mix (could be made into waffles with a waffle maker) and frozen berries or chocolate chips (called chunks at DT) 2.50 for breakfast If you are using pantry staples- a little oil, garlic powder, onion powder and hot sauce would go a long way here.

Girl, I feel ya on the cheese doodles! Those would be gone in a couple of days, and I'd be like "who ate my cheese doodles?" 😆🤣
With the meatballs... you wouldn't just cook the meatballs... you would cook them and then you mince them up like ground beef and add them to the sauce.... so you wouldn't just have ONE meatball a day staring at you from the top of spaghetti.

This gave me so much confidence that I can still have a good meal on a tight budget. Thank you, you have brought me peace of mind and have made realize there's so much you can do if you just open up your mind to new ideas

If you haven’t already found her, dollar tree dinners make great meals on a budget!!
Ohh you got a shot of the milk on the last shelf! I buy their milk as backup for whenever we run out of our regular gallon. With a cereal box that could also last an entire week. I loved this challenge! Makes me want to experiment myself to try and save up some money in this declining economy!
With inflation I would make it $15. Dollar Tree- sausage, Prego Alfredo sauce, pasta; pancake mix (also for waffles, craps) syrup, rice, mayo Aldi - 2 cans of tuna, can of carrots and green beans, pack of gravy, roll of ground turkey, 2 bananaa. Pantry staple flour, yeast, cinnamon and dehydrated onions. Family of 3. 1 Sausage and carrots Alfredo half of pasta, Turkey Salisbury steak with rice, gravy and green beans, Tuna pasta salad or tuna casserole, 1/2 banana cinnamon waffles, homemade bagels and bread. If I had another $1.25 oatmeal.

Don’t forget the food pantry drive through first where you get potatoes, onions,pasta sauce , Mac and cheese, green beans, carrots sometimes, peanut butter, canned fruit, bread and tuna and rice. $10 on meats, syrup, weiners , pancake mix, milk, oatmeal or grits or cereal, sausage . Stuffed weiners mashed potatoes cover an opened sliced weiners covered with shredded cheese. Tuna options tuna salad, sandwich or casserole. Put all these ideas together Bougie it is. Spam sliced and battered and fried chicken fried spam add gravy.
How funny this came up right now. I just got back from Kroger and realized I could definitely live with a $10 weekly ood budget, absolutely. There are still great specials available at the big chain grocery stores even in this time of extreme inflation.

I’m so glad you put back the shredded cheese. It’s not real cheese and it doesn’t melt

This was the first time I encountered one of your videos, and it tickled me. You really have no clue just how challenging/daunting a task coming up with 21 servings of food can be until you are actually in the store with only $10 to spend. There are some excellent comments here. Can't wait to catch a few more of your videos and see what else you do.
if you took the bread and toasted some slices you could use a little of your sauce on top, add cheese on top and stick in the oven and you could have pizza. Better if you could add some oregano to the sauce and it will taste like pizza sauce.
The hotdog with spaghetti is a Filipino favorite. So much so, it’s available at McDonalds and the local fast food place Jolly Bee! Great ideas and meals for $10! Btw, I’m happy Jolly Bee is becoming popular in the US! 🇵🇭 🇺🇸😁✌🏽

Be warned. Dollar Tree frozen fruits and vegetables are very bad quality. It seems they sit out for long periods of time, in a process of freezing and refreezing which makes them icy, freezer burnt and bland.

Since it's $1.25 now, up your budget to $12.50. Get the Rice over pasta, for your base, better for your money, can eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner,
Put cheese on the hotdogs Save some pancakes mix to make pigs in a blanket with the hotdogs Make your own garlic bread with butter on side pasta

I've been replacing 4 meals a week with Dollar tree meals. 1The pancake mix add an egg to the batter with half and half creamer cook pancakes top with syrup and butter 2 Frozen vegetable bag bell peppers and onions with Jasmine rice with canned chicken 3 Pinto beans make refried beans Two cans of chicken and also a package of tortillas where we live $1.25 get you a 22 count package Prepare the pinto beans fried up the burritos with hot sauce and cheese. Makes 12 burritos 👏 Also The easy spaghetti prepare noodles marinara half a bag of peppers and onion and two bags of meatballs
Dollar tree is has always been my go to store. Yall did a super job on that challenge. Can't wait to see more Thanks Erica n Tiffany 💖 💖

Awesome job Erica and Tiffany. Thanks for your hard work beloved’s.
That was really creative spending and meal planning. Thanks for sharing.
You could have gotten canned chicken for the quesadillas
Hey Ladies! May I suggest next time you try a big box of rolled oats , syrup, and bananas. With those ingredients you can make baked breakfast cookies, pancakes, and cereal for the week.

Love the ideas my kids love fried hot dogs with breakfast. My go to is cut up the sausage sauté with thee bag of mixed veggies serve with rice. And BAM rice bowls for a week. Then they have boxes of jambalaya plus the sausage. And it’s a lot of food.
Love how you and Tiffany put the meals together.
Buy the sausage and package of beans and chicken broth and bag of carrots and you have bean soup that will last for days.
Great ideas and good fun! Keep up the good content!
Bulk bins are back at a lot of stores now and utilizing them for small amounts of nuts, beans, flours, lentils, etc. can add variety to the weeks meals while keeping costs down.
Great Haul for $10! Love it!

Y'all are getting good at this. You could make fried toast & put syrup on it or cheese toast. Try it as a vegan, see if it works on $10. You could try meatless if vegan is too hard. Thanks for the laughs!
I love these videos, they are really helpful. Thank you!!
Food tip they sell pinto beans, black beans, and refried beans at the dollar tree to add to the quesadillas. They sell the dry or canned. Also, they sell rice to make the meals stretch and more filling.
Those are appetizing meals for ten dollars a week! "Cheese is for Rich People" 🤣I like the Intro.

my dollar tree gets their bread delivery on Saturday. if you go on Saturday you can often get bagels, sandwich thins and lots of choice of bread.
You did a great job ladies!!!
Lol I think due to inflation and the price hiking .25 cents more you should do a $15 dollar challenge. Maybe for the next video 😜
Nice meal. Wouldn’t have bought pretzels 🥨 (personal preference), I don’t like them. As Jamaicans we make sausage and sauce (barbeque or ketchup) quite often. We’d definitely buy ramen (that brand is scarce here at this time). I’d buy flour and make fried dumplings for one meal and fritters for another. That same flour could make pancakes 🥞 or waffles. That line, “Cheese is for rich people 🤑 “ always cracks me up.

You ladies picked some great choices for meals. I also buy frozen veggies, frozen fruit , or canned fruit and vegetables and eggs from DT to stretch my meals. I add the fruit to my cereal, oatmeal or pancakes for breakfast. I have fried egg sandwiches or hard boiled eggs and toast for lunch with any extra fruit. I add veggies to my dinners. My DT sells frozen Texas Toast . I love thatcwith spaghetti. Or use any extra bread to make cheese or garlic bread 🍞 Tiffany, love your hair 💖💜

Thank you for showing us how we can stick to a budget and still eat without spending so much. Especially with the way the economy is now, where people have to decide on food, gas or paying other living expenses. God bless you both.

This post brought back memories of when I was working 2 jobs and going to night school to be a nurse (1993).....I would buy a bag of pasta/rice, 1 can/jar of pasta sauce, cheap meat, loaf of bread and a block of cheese every 2 weeks and this would be what my husband and I would eat! Watching the budget with high food costs now is a real issue in both the US and Canada. Your video content is very much a reality for those whom have limited funds...I no longer have to 'scrimp' on my groceries, but do pay it forward when I can....Great video
👋❤ Erica n Tiffany. Do you ladies have a 99cent store. For $10, you two can get so much more food. You two should try it! Bye the way, I LOVE Hotdog spaghetti. You could buy the can tomatoe paste n make your own sauce😊. I also buy the Minced Garlic all the time. Melting those cheeses down and dipping the pretzels into the cheese with a little sauce on top is a meal too. Great job ladies. TIP for EVERYONE. CHECK Out YOUR local 99 cent store it carries the same items for More bang for your bucks! God bless y’all
