Bites on a Budget is a monthly cooking series created to showcase cheap, easy-to-make meals for under $20. What originally started as a one-time video idea to help viewers save money on food has flourished into a successful series with 30+ videos and two spin-off series, Bites on a Budget Pantry & Leftover Edition.
Budget friendly recipes that won’t break your wallet!
During the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, while stay-at-home orders were in full effect, we introduced an 8-part Instagram Story series, Bites on a Budget: Pantry Edition, to help show members how to take traditional ingredients from their pantry and turn them into tasty meals!
With the launch of Instagram Reels and short-form content on the rise, we realized there was an opportunity to broaden our reach and expand on the popular series. In March 2021, we launched our first ever Bites on a Budget: Leftover Edition recipe. The goal of this series was simple, show viewers another recipe they could make using the leftover ingredients from that month’s Bites on a Budget recipe. Thus Promoting zero waste, an opportunity to save more money, and one less trip to the grocery store - win, win, win!
