I turned a $22 grocery haul into 39 filling, realistic meals—and you can too. 💛 When your grocery money is running low, it’s easy to feel stuck. In this video, I’m sharing 6 ultra-budget one-pan meals I made using just $21.90 of ingredients from Walmart. These meals are simple, comforting, and actually taste good—even when money is tight. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, these recipes are for you. I bought all the ingredients at my local Walmart in Utah—just $21.90 total before tax. That’s 6 meals × 6+ servings each = 39 single servings!

If this video helps you—or someone you love—please consider sharing it. And if you’re in a tough spot, don’t hesitate to reach out to local food banks, churches, or community support programs. If you’re in a position to give, even a small donation to a local pantry can make a real difference 💙 Thank you so much for all of the support 🌼

  1. Hi all, I am. 64 and I live alone, I have did my budget for next month and it leaves me 50.00 for food for the whole month watching these videos I think I can do it I am going to give it my very best. I have been told this place does have a food bank so I will look in to it. Thank you Julia!!

  2. You are such a sweetheart!!!! Thank you for all you are doing, you are helping SO MANY people right now! Food is so ridiculously priced right now and with people potentially losing their food benefits, you are seriously a life-saver! You deserve ALL the good! 🙂

  3. If you use their comment in your content/ a specific comment triggers a video idea… I hope you send them money to help them at this point. Please don't read that as a demand I just hope you take that into consideration if you don't already do it…
