Struggle Meals

Frankie makes three dishes for a party of four, that when combined, are cheaper than just one meal out for brunch. Then, it's a taco party for five people for only $20!

Stale bread, old bananas, canned food, dry foods... they've all gotten a bad wrap, but this is not the end of them yet! Don't let this stuff sit in the pantry, don't let it go to waste - Frankie encourages you to stretch further and cheaper!

First, Frankie packs a one-two punch of bargain and nutrition with butternut squash in three nostalgic, old school dishes. Then he shows you how to prep portable wraps at home for easy, peasey lunches.

Versatility is important. These three items - bacon, eggs, and a whole chicken - will feed you a plethora of delicious meals... and for cheap!

Everyone loves carbs! Endlessly versatile, cheap, and super filling - Frankie shows you tricks for pasta, pizza dough, and delicious, easy ramen meals that aren't soup.

Cauliflower is a star and can be transformed into unexpected dishes. Plus it's delicious and nutritious! Frankie reminds us to buy dried-goods in bulk and makes a big chuck roast that stretches over three dishes.
