God bless you! There is a donation kiosk at the end of my block next to the church and I always try to stock some spaghetti and sauce, mac and cheese, etc. in there every week, thankfully there is a dollar tree a few blocks over so it makes for easy work. Directly down the block from the dollar tree there is another kiosk that actually has a fridge outside that you can stock as well. It’s such a blessing for people who don’t have transportation as most of the food pantries are in another neighborhood and require transit to get there

I just want to say, the kindness, compassion, open-mindedness and gratitude in these comments brought tears to my eyes. I love this community.

Yes, this is the nice side of KZread. No silly politics, just good food and good energy.

I want to tell you a tip about the ricecooker, just in case you don't know (it seems to not be well known outside of asia). The measuring cup that comes with the rice cooker is to measure the rice. One 'rice cup' is equal to one adult serving of cooked rice (again by asian standards, its a pretty large portion). What you're meant to do is scoop out the rice with the rice cup, wash it and drain the washing liquid a few times, then put the rice in the cooking pot of the rice cooker, and add water up to the fill line. If you used 2 rice cups, add water until it is up to the line marked '2' inside the cooking pot with the rice already inside. Just make sure you don't add water before rice, the measuring line accounts for the mass of the rice so it will be too much water if you do water first, I hope that makes sense. Again, sorry if you already know this technique!

You can eat cheaply or you can dine cheaply. She has given us the inspiration and information to DINE.

If you don't need a whole quart of milk, use powdered milk instead. Here's the secret: to make one cup of milk, put 1/2 cup water in a measuring cup. Add 1/3 cup milk powder and stir until dissolved. Then fill the cup to the one cup mark- instant milk without the powdered milk taste and you only use what you need. Buy "just add water" mixes and only use what you need to make a meal for the number of people eating- no leftovers to refrigerate- Good ideas in a blackout, bad storm, disaster, camping, road trip and more.

You're so considerate towards people who have next to nothing to work with. As someone who was homeless for a few years, this makes me really happy, because let me tell you, Churchs are not all that welcoming everywhere, especially in my area, and if you try to get help from a religious based cooperation, they find reasons for you to "need to fix yourself" in ways that should be unnecessary. Like how you're born or whatnot. At least here, anyway. So this really means a lot to me, your kindness and unconditional care for people. It's rare friend. I just wanted to let you know that :)

Thank you so much for your kind words, I think that my platform is very unique in that sense. There are many food assistance programs out there but dollar tree is a way for people to supplement those or a way for them to support and feed themselves and their family cheaply if they can’t use those programs for various reasons. I think it’s a very underutilized tool for those on fixed income and limited budgets so I only hope to reduce or remove the stigma of it

I'm sorry some Churches don't provide assistance. As a woman who gives to our charitable efforts, it hurts my heart to hear this. All God's children need to eat and providing food is a Godly endeavor. If anyone needs food please check for food pantries, municipal or county general assistance programs, or other resources. We do maintain a benevolence fund to help those who can't access those services. As a small group we don't have a lot of money but members give what they can. Churches don't receive funding from sources other than their congregation's individual offering or tithing. Churches are groups of people that exist to worship together and they try to do good works to serve Christ. Not all fellowship's ministries include food pantry or welfare help. Some provide monies for different community issues (like child welfare, education assistance, addiction, prison counseling or even hospice ministry). Above all, judgment is not a ministry; lifting people out of poverty is. Praying for a revival of Godly love in our country. God bless you ✝

I was watching this when my mom passed away just now. She loved chicken pot pie. Bless you I’m making this in honor of her

Thank you for showing those of us who are elderly/on a limited SocSec income how we can cook out of our pantry for little money. I love my crock pot, toaster oven, and rice cooker. It is smaller than yours, but it's just me anyway. I'm so glad I found you!

I really enjoy your videos you’re very creative. I honestly would never think of shopping at the dollar tree. I primarily shop at Trader Joe’s. You would be surprised how many cheap things they have there. You have definitely made me change my mind about using things like chicken à la king and canned chicken and canned veggies biscuits in a bag to make a quick easy meal. I’m older and I live alone now and I don’t like to cook for myself all the time. This seems simple and can be made small. I have to say I am a very good cook I’m told, so a lot of this goes against my cook from scratch but as I get older and my back is sore shortcuts are very helpful. Thank you for sharing all these wonderful videos. Something about your personality also brings me back to your videos. You seem like such a levelheaded, kind, young lady. Again, thank you for all of your wonderful ideas. I am subscribed and I will continue to watch.

The Chicken A La King is a staple for me ever since I saw your original video about it~ I make it every week now~ it's absolutely Delicious!!

for the first recipe getting some of the Velveeta cheese sauce and cutting it with the shelf-stable milk may be an alternative if someone wants cheese on top of the casserole

I made the yellow rice, canned chicken, and used 1 can of mixed veggies in one pot. I drained and cooked my chicken with butter and minced garlic, and I seasoned the chicken with sazon, black pepper, and onion powder. It was delish!!! A $3.75 dinner. 😁

Wow. These recipes are awesome! Being retired and on a fixed and inadequate income, these recipes are right down my alley. I am truly inspired to try these out. Great job!

These are also great recipes for those without power or camping!

I love the shelf milk from dollar tree. Its just me at home so it is perfect for me cause I don't use a whole lot of milk.

I love this because I boondock and don't have a refrigerator.

For another idea with the pasta salad mix... I use two boxes of pasta salad - prepare according to instructions. I boil and dice up 6 eggs, a can of chicken drained and shredded, add mayo to the dressing after you prepare it according to the box. It stretches the dressing and makes it so creamy. I add some of my favorite seasonings for more flavor. Mix it all up and let it chill well before eating. Every time I make it for guests they clean me out eating all of it lol.

Chickpeas would be great in the salad too.

Love this. This would be fantastic to pre-package together and give as Christmas gifts to families in need.

Our plain ole generic rice cooker, which was like $10 at Walmart, is such a timesaver.

One of my favorite really quick meals is a meatball plate. Its pre-cooked home-style meatballs are cooked in packaged brown gravy. Canned corn cooked in a little bit of butter. Instant potatoes or premade, just microwave potatoes and ready-to-eat rolls. Follow the instructions on the potatoes. The gravy is usually 2 cups but I stretch it to 2½ to 3 cups with extra water cooked in a 6-quart pot (I may be wrong on the quart size but it's a bigger pot. Maybe called a Dutch oven?) The water amount depends on the thickness you want of the gravy. I add the meatballs to it and heat together until desired temperature. Drain the corn, and pour into a microwave-safe bowl with a tablespoon of butter. Portion on a plate or a bowl with rolls on the side. After a full day of school or work followed by after-school activities or whatever that gets you home late as a loan parent on top of what you need to get done at home for the next day and get in bed on time something simple to cook with minimal clean-up by also using disposable plates and silverware and full bellies is the best.
