  • S01E16 The 2 Dollar Curry (Butter Chicken)

    • March 14, 2021

    Okay, curry can be expensive both at a restaurant and when homemade. In order to make this happen, we have to simplify the recipe, maximize the flavor and make this dish for the very cheapest price physically possible...without losing flavor at all.

    • March 28, 2021

    A great sandwich is usually overpriced. But you can make this homemade sandwich for a total of 2 dollars PER SERVING. That means your 12 dollar sandwich is going right out the window.

  • S01E18 3 Dollar Homemade Ramen

    • April 11, 2021

    No, this isn't instant ramen so don’t ask. I'm talking about the gourmet ramen that costs $15 or more for a single bowl! That's just unacceptable so I'll show you how to make homemade gourmet miso ramen for just 3 dollars that'll make all categories of ramen from fancy to instant look bad.

  • S01E19 Giant 4 Dollar Homemade Fajitas Meal

    • May 2, 2021

    Ah yes, the TexMex classic, fajitas. We all know it. We all love it. However, going out with friends and family trying to enjoy a steamy plate of meat, beans, vegetables, and warm tortillas that you just want to cuddle up in are so darn expensive!! Enough is enough of spending over 15 bucks a serving for fajitas. That's why we are making chicken fajitas at home, but wayyyy cheaper. Like $4 per serving cheaper.

  • S01E20 The 2 Dollar Gourmet Burger

    • June 13, 2021

  • S01E23 The 1 Dollar Sweet and Sour Chicken

    • August 15, 2021

  • S01E24 1 Dollar Fancy Mac and Cheese

    • August 29, 2021

    The average cost of fancy mac and cheese is 7 bucks and above. Obviously, storebought is much cheaper, but making your own oven mac and cheese with multiple kinds of cheese can be done for as little as 1 dollar per serving. And it's better than 99 percent of the other mac and cheeses out there. Take it or leave it bud.

  • S01E31 The Cheapest Sandwich Ever (Chopped Cheese)

    • December 19, 2021

    A bodega Chopped Cheese can be made homemade for even cheaper than you might have imagined.
