Hello and Welcome! My name is Lisa and my channel is mostly about Food, Homemaking and the Simple Life! On this channel we Shop for Groceries and check prices, Cook, Preserve, Practice Food Storage, and Explore the Simple Life.
I live in Canada and my family is from the Calabria region of Italy. This gave me exposure to a lot of good food growing up, and I love cooking inspired by the way I was taught by my traditional Italian mother, using simple, seasonal and flavorful ingredients. My dad was a depression era kid and my mom was a WW2 kid, so frugal living was also a big part of their lives. Many of their habits, thankfully, are serving me well in my adulthood :)
Though Italian food is my specialty, I also love to draw inspiration from different world cuisines and enjoy making pantry meals.
I love learning from others and keeping life simple!
Hi 👋 Looks like a very tasty sauce ,but what's it like for staining on a white top ?? As I love Italian sauces,but hate tomato stains.😢 Thank you for sharing 👍
Today for lunch I made the Peperone Arrostite con noci e olive! I paired it with a delicious piece of salmon for myself and my son. It was wonderful! I’m half Italian and absolutely love your channel and all the wonderful authentic Italian recipes. But most importantly I love how you teach us to love our families and home. God bless you! ❤
If I ever make any kind of meal strictly according to the recipe, please bury me for I must be dead. I love adding and subtracting things that I have in my kitchen like extra mushrooms or peppers or spices etc., even anchovies that I really like.
Unless you get your lemons from someone's backyard, I would not use lemon zest: it is full of pesticides, even "organic" lemons have chemicals in the peel. Choose your lemons grown "wild".
This is a great one serving quick sauce recipe that I will try. Currently I make a huge pot it simmers 6 hours and then I freeze in 4 - 6 cups containers to use when needed. I use my dad’s recipe and tweaked a little by me. Everyone who has had my home made sauce has loved it. Even my brother says it’s better than his…. 😂
Camomile is a highly underestimated tea. I used to put it room temp in a baby bottle for my son's colic. Worked like a charm at soothing his tummy troubles and helped for nap time too.
Wow, you are an amazing lady. This world is shifting into a very dark place and not just with things like addiction. I think when women stayed at home and looked after the family and home things were so much better. There are so many young women who are made to feel lazy because they want to be home makers rather than go out to work, especially in my country, UK. Well is there any wonder that there is a record number of children with adhd, simply because they don’t get the time and nurturing that children in the past received. If women want to work that’s fine too, but if they want to be homemakers that should be allowed to happen. Thank you for your wonderful videos, they are really uplifting, keep up the good work!
New subscriber. Thank you for your very uplifting videos. In a world that seems to becoming darker and darker, your thoughts and ideas give out so much positivity and have certainly changed my perspective! Thank you for all your time and effort in trying to uplift others. God bless.
What is simply lovely video Lisa. Always look forward to listening and watching whenever I get a notification you posted a new video. They have never failed. Disappoint and I’ve always inspired. God bless.
