A 22-YEAR-OLD mother has shared an easy meal she likes to make to feed her four young children.
The go-to dish is just three ingredients and satisfies all of them in their trailer park home.
Young mom Christa (@christacelia) shines a light on the realities of raising young kids as a single mother.
She currently lives in a trailer park with her four children, who are all a year apart and documents the daily meals she makes for them online.
In a TikTok video, she brought viewers into her home as she made a quick and easy dinner for them.
She filmed herself preparing the dinner during its many stages.
It consisted of three basic ingredients that provided the toddlers with tasty sustenance, sausage, yellow rice, and mashed potatoes.
First, she filled a pot with water and put it to boil on the stove.
Then, she cut up half a sausage into small pieces and filled a measuring cup up with uncooked yellow rice before pouring it into the boiling water.
She cooked the chopped sausages on a skillet on the stove and went back to seasoning her rice.

Next, she made mashed potatoes from a box using a bot of hot water and occasionally stirred.
Lastly, she pulled kid-safe plastic dishes from her cupboard and placed the mashed potatoes and rice first before putting the cooked sausage over the rice.
As a final touch, she added a bit of black pepper to the potatoes before serving it to her children.
Many people complimented Christa for her motherly behavior.
"I see a clean home, a pretty mama doing her best, and fed, happy babies with good manners," a viewer praised.
"I’m not in a trailer park and my kids eat this. You’re doing great mama," another added.
"I grew up in a trailer too. So many people judge it but it was fine! As long as you have love, that’s all that matters," a fan shared.
