Note: This budget assumes that you will have some items in your house like pantry staples like flour, sugar, vanilla extract, spices, garlic, bouillon power, and onion. Basically things that you don't buy every time you go to the store. Considering that this meal includes very common items, you may even have a few items in the meal already in your house beyond pantry staples. Planning early and shopping at store like Aldi, discounts stores, or sales can greatly decrease the cost.
Feel free to add turkey or ham to this meal. Closer to the holidays stores practically GIVE AWAY hams and turkeys.
I used 3 bundles total of kale and turnip greens b/c they were only $1.24, but collards greens can be used. The collard greens were $2.50 per bundle, so this was cheaper.
I mostly purchased store brands to keep the cost low, but I at times can get name brand on sale and will purchase that. I live in NC. Grocery prices will vary. I spent $39 at the store for the groceries. Then used a few items I had at my house to make this $50. By eliminating things like cheese ( like in Mac and cheese) you can indeed get this meal for this price (give or take a couple dollars) in certain areas. This could feed a family of 5 ( 2 adults 3 kids) comfortably.

I still clean my greens the old school way my mom & grandmother showed me with salt. It’s really easy with my double sided sink. I pick & trim first. Then submerge, layer in salt, rub and agitate, rinse and repeat until the water runs clean and the greens are squeaky clean.

Forgot to give you a recipe to clean your air fryer. You can use it on large ovens also mix 1/4 cup vinegar half a cup of dawn detergent one and a half cups baking soda. Just mix it up let it sit a while and just clean. It works. Wonders on my big oven and my countertop oven. Try it. Let me know if it works. Your dinner looks wonderful.

Creating a budget friendly soul food Thanksgiving dinner brings happiness to my soul 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Definitely my grandmother’s caramel cake, banana pudding & sweet potato pie have always been my favorites. Nothing beat homemade caramel made in her cast iron skillet even after stirring until my muscles cried.

You did great and you don’t have to be in the kitchen all day or prepping weeks in advance. This could easily in done in two days with an hour’s + kitchen’s work. Day 1: Crusts, cornbread, pressure cook chicken, clean/prep/cook greens Day 2: Pressure cook Peas, Finish corn pudding, dressing, and tarts

Corn pudding and apple tart. You brought some Ole Skool dishes back.🤗
-
Green bell peppers for the dressing is my preference.
-
This looks so delicious. I could eat this anytime. My birthday is at the end of October. I have had a Thanksgiving meal for my birthday dinner. Then turned around and had it again on Thanksgiving. So so good. Thank you, Miss Camirra. Happy early Thanksgiving. PS: I have never had corn pudding either, lol guess I have to now. :)
-
Adding turnip roots to the simmering greens is delicious also
-
I usually soak and agitate my greens in a large stainless steel bowl with salted water!! And then, I lift them out of the water and boy-- you should see all the sand and dirt! Never just pour the water out back over the greens because you'll defeat the purpose of washing them-- and let tell ya, sandy, crunchy greens-- are the worse😝! Thanks for an inspiring video! I don't do the swine, so this was very exciting for me!
-
Hey girl. Made your chicken dressing last year. Everyone loved it! My dad and I are making it again this year. Thank you. You are an amazing cook. Keep on rocking!

You are truly a Southern Cooking Goddess, Camirra! I haven't heard of nor seen cirn pudding since my childhood. (My family is from South Carolina.) This meal looks divine as always!
-
I really enjoy watching you cook ole fashion country food,😋. I love to cook and cater,learning new recipes or techniques are a blessing. I wish y'all a happy and blessed holiday season. Peace&Blessings🙏💜

Everything looked so good. Glad someone else is using whole nutmeg, taste so much better. You should try a little bit in mashed potatoes, as well as in roasted or fried Brussels sprouts. But add it at the end, nutmeg can burn easily. A lottle goes a long way. And I love the addition of the bay leaf as well. I like to add a little hot sauce on the greens, Louisiana style or Texas Pete. My favorite desert would be pecan pie. But that apple tart looks very good. My contribution to Thanksgiving has been banana pudding for a few years now.

I LOVE your videos! My family isn’t as close as we use to be but these videos always make me feel like I am in the kitchen with the family like how it use to be. My favorite thanksgiving dessert is peach cobbler and sweet potato pie. I love how close ur recipes are to what I saw ppl around me use. I KNOW the food is good. Happy holidays!

Thanks for such a concise, fun to watch, down to earth cooking video!!! Everything looks REALLY good!!! I love seeing how people in other places cook and the kinds of sides they have for holidays, especially Thanksgiving. I live in south Louisiana, so I grew up eating Zatarain’s products and Camellia beans—-especially Camellia red beans EVERY Monday —-since both are local products. 😉 I also grew up eating my mother’s oyster dressing on Thanksgiving——which I loved, but sadly have never been able to duplicate——and never had cornbread dressing till it was served on our school lunch tray, WAY back in the day when the cafeteria ladies actually COOKED real food!!! 🤷♀️ I fell in love with it and begged my mother to make it, but she never did because she said she had too many other things to make. 😭 She made so many other sides I liked that I got over it. 😂 I also never had corn pudding till a few years ago when I tried Michael Symon’s Almost Famous Corn Pudding and got hooked. My mother was an incredible cook, but not a baker—-she didn’t like having to measure things to be exact——so her go-to dessert was always bread pudding——we always had pieces of French bread loaves leftover, so she’d save them up to make the pudding—- and serve it warm with whiskey or rum sauce. My mouth waters just thinking about it!!! So bread pudding is still my favorite, though I do love me some pecan (“puh-cawn”) pie. Thanks again for the video. I’m going to go back and catch up on all your other ones!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
