Part 2.🍍Pineapple Cookies.🍍Please follow all the s Part 2.🍍Pineapple Cookies.🍍Please follow all the steps from my first video….Part 1. The cookies are very easy to make. You can split the recipe in half if you only want 50 cookies instead of 100. Make sure to refrigerate the dough the night before for best results. When you take the dough out it will be hard. Don’t panic bc it’s normal. Take a bit at a time and start to knead it and it will start to get soft right away with the warmth of your hands. You don’t want it too soft or else it will be sticky. I filled mine with pineapple, but you can add Nutella or any of your favourite jams. I made them into croissants, but you can make them any shape you want if you don’t want to make croissants. You can make a round circle and fill them, roll them pinch and turn the ends like a candy wrapper, or a half moon. It will be much easier that way than what I did. Depending on how thick or thin you make the dough, will determine on how many cookies you get or how long the baking time will be.👌 Thanks again to my family friend Marta and her Mamma for this gem of a recipe that I will treasure. I hope you will too. Enjoy, they were a big hit at my house.👌🤗🙏👩‍🍳 I will include full recipe in my comments below, pinned at the top.⬇️ #christmas#homemade #dessert#foodporn #foodie #foodblogger #food #yummy #love #video #trend #trending #viral #viralreels #viralvideos #reels #reel #reelsinstagram #trendingreels #instagram #instagood #instamood #instalike #instadaily#explore ##instalove #instafood #foryou #fyp @thefeedfeed @food52
Part 1. 🍍Pineapple Cookies.🍍 This is a healthy ver Part 1. 🍍Pineapple Cookies.🍍 This is a healthy version of what I grew up with. The secret ingredient that keeps these amazing cookies pillowy soft is the cream cheese. Make sure to refrigerate the dough overnight for best results or else the dough will be too sticky and hard to work with. When you take the dough out it will be hard. Don’t panic bc it’s normal. Take a bit at a time and start to knead it and it will start to get soft right away as soon as you work with it. You don’t want it too soft or else it will be sticky. I had to spilt this video in 2 parts to include every step. I filled mine with pineapple, but you can add Nutella or any of your favourite jams.

Pineapple Cookies.🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍 Full recipe and Reel wil Pineapple Cookies.🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍 Full recipe and Reel will be posted soon. You are definitely going to go crazy for these. I filled mine with pineapple, but you can add Nutella or any of your favourite jams. I made them into croissants, but you can make them any shape you want if you don’t want to make croissants. You can make a round circle and fill them, roll them pinch and turn the ends like a candy wrapper, or a half moon. It will be much easier that way than what I did. Depending on how thick or thin you make the dough, will determine on how many cookies you get or how long the baking time will be.👌Enjoy.🤗😋 You need to refrigerate the dough overnight for best results or it will be too sticky and hard to handle. Thanks Marta for sharing your Mamma’s recipe.🤗Can’t wait to try more of her cookies. I grew up eating pineapple cookies. My Zia Lucia use to make them, but hers were made with margarine, so these are a much healthier version.👌I absolutely love to bake and I hope that I can inspire you to try these for your family. These are great for any upcoming showers or wedding celebrations. You can even just make half the recipe and you’ll get about 50 cookies.👌 Note-I made the dough very thin, but you can make it slightly thicker if you like. You’ll just get less cookies, but you’ll have to bake them a bit longer.👩‍🍳Who’s interested???🤷‍♀️ @food52 @thefeedfeed #christmas#homemade #dessert#foodporn #foodie #foodblogger #food #yummy #love #video #trend #trending #viral #viralreels #viralvideos #reels #reel #reelsinstagram #trendingreels #instagram #instagood #instamood #instalike #instadaily#explore ##instalove #instafood #foryou #fyp
Winter White Chocolate Crinkles.👩‍🍳😋👌 Thank you to Winter White Chocolate Crinkles.👩‍🍳😋👌 Thank you to my niece Sabrina for this recipe. We’ve been making these for years, and they’re always a family favourite. They’re simple to prepare, but be sure to refrigerate the dough for at least 4 hours or overnight otherwise the cookies will bake flat. If you love chocolate, you’ll adore these soft, fudgy cookies with a crisp exterior. They also freeze beautifully. Store them in an airtight container and they’ll keep for a couple of months. @food52 @thefeedfeed #christmas#homemade #dessert#foodporn #foodie #foodblogger #food #yummy #love #video #trend #trending #viral #viralreels #viralvideos #reels #reel #reelsinstagram #trendingreels #instagram #instagood #instamood #instalike #instadaily#explore ##instalove #instafood #foryou #fyp

So delish!👩‍🍳My bil next door adds a green chopped pepper in his chili and it’s pretty good. I’ve tried it before….Yum.👌I would have added it if I had it. You can also add cumin, but I don’t like it.

Thank you ladies for coming over and keeping me co Thank you ladies for coming over and keeping me company while we made Libi’s recipe from the 1980’s!!! Pasta Alla Vodka with Salmon and Asparagus. So delicious and very quick and easy to make.👌😋👩‍🍳If you haven’t flambéd at home please be careful.🔥Libi is experienced, but I think we added a bit too much vodka and therefore the flame was quite high. My phone was very close to the heat and I was worried.😩I had to mute that part bc there was a lot of Italian swearing going on for that second.🫣It’s funny how we automatically swear in Italian.🙏🇮🇹🤣It was all good and we put the flame out right away with the lid.🔥If you don’t feel comfortable, I suggest you skip this part altogether if you like. It will still turn out amazing. Such a beautiful meal. Grazie Amici.♥️♥️♥️♥️ @libi_lancia @nina_colosimo @martakapp @food52 @thefeedfeed Full recipe in my caption below. ⬇️ #fun #family #familytime #love #friends #friendship #explore #foryou #fyp #cooking #delicious #yummy #foodporn #food #foodblogger #reels #reel #reelsinstagram #reelsvideo #reelsvideo #trending #viral #trendingreels #instagram #instagood #instadaily #instalike #insta #instafood #instadaily #homemade #italian
Unfortunately I really am allergic to penicillin, Unfortunately I really am allergic to penicillin, but not the Italian kind.🙏🇮🇹Perfect for a cold winter day like today. My husband was feeling under the weather, so he needed something to soothe his soul, body and mind. Boy did it work.👌🙏He said this was the best brodo ever.🤗This was just a simply vegetable brodo/soup.🤷‍♀️There’s just one secret!!👩‍🍳👌I blends 1 onion, potatoes, and half of my carrots except for my celery. I don’t like to blend celery bc it comes stringy. I like to cook my pastina separately. It was only my husband and eating it. Next time I’m going to double the recipe and use my huge pot like I normally do. It’s a great idea to freeze it in small containers. I usually do that and take it out when I need it, or give it to my kids. Take it out of the freezer the night before and refrigerate it. When you get home quickly warm it up, and add some Pastina to it and enjoy. Top with grated reggiano parmigiano and the rest is heaven.🙏😋👩‍🍳Stay tuned for the full recipe and reel.👩‍🍳😋🇮🇹Come visit me tomorrow.👩‍🍳 Recipe in my comments, pinned at the top. @food52 @thefeedfeed #winter #comfortfood #love #food #foodie #foodporn #foodblogger #blogger #delicious #yummy #reel #reels #reelsinstagram #viral #viralvideos #reelsvideo #trending #trendingreels #trend #instagood #instagram #instadaily #instamood #instafood #instalike #instalove #italianfood #italiangirl #video #amazing

Spaghetti Alla Nerano.🇮🇹👩‍🍳 This delicious creamy Spaghetti Alla Nerano.🇮🇹👩‍🍳 This delicious creamy cheesy zucchini dish is so easy to make and comes together in no time, with just a few simply ingredients.😋👩‍🍳 This pasta was born in 1952 by a woman named Maire’s Grazia from the town of Nerano, in Italy off the Coast of Amalfi.🇮🇹The original cheese that was used for the this dish was “Provolone di Monaco” which can be substituted by a combination of Pecorino Romano and Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese. Although it’s creamy, there is no cream used in this recipe.👌👩‍🍳I stayed true to the recipe and fried the zucchini, but you can even bake them if you really want to. But it’s not the same flavour of course.🤷‍♀️ You can make this as thick or as liquidy as you like. Just keep adding more pasta water until you get the constituency that you like. I added about 1 3/4 cup of pasta water, but I suggest you reserve about 2 cups, just in case you want to add a bit more. You may not need it all. Note-I suggest you do not add salt to pasta water & lightly salt zucchini at the end bc this dish is salty enough with all the cheese. @food52 @thefeedfeed Recipe will be posted in my caption below. ⬇️ @parmigianoreggiano @parmigianoreggiano_cad @food52 @thefeedfeed #viral #viralreels #viralvideos #food #foodie #foodporn #foodblogger #explore #instagood #instagram #instadaily #instalike #instafood #instamood #instalove #love #yummy #delicious #amazing #healthy #healthyfood #trend #trendingreels #trending#video #fyp#foryou #reels #reel #reelsinstagram
Gluten Free Almond Cluster Biscotti.👌👩‍🍳🇮🇹They did Gluten Free Almond Cluster Biscotti.👌👩‍🍳🇮🇹They didn’t have a name, so I just named them. This recipe was given to me a few months ago by Nonna Caterina. She’s my nieces’ Nonna. I’ve known how practically my whole life. She’s a beautiful lady and a great baker and cook. She’s been making these for years. I tried these cookies at my nieces baby shower and feel in love. That crutch got me!!👌😋👩‍🍳She shared many other recipes with me and I can’t wait to share them with you. I’m trying to get her to come on as a guest. So far no luck.🤷‍♀️☺️Let’s see if her grandkids can convince her. These are so delicious and mind blowing how easy just 3 simple ingredients can make these delicious, crunchy clusters of goodness.😋👌Can’t wait for you to try them. They come together in just a few minutes.👌They freeze well and they’re crunchy on the outside but a bit soft in the middle after a day or so. So Amazing!!👌👩‍🍳I made half the recipe which makes 19-20 cookies. I will post the full recipes which will give you approx 40 cookies. @food52 @thefeedfeed Recipe in caption below. ⬇️ #cookies #baking #homemade #delicious #yummy #amazing #healthy #healthylifestyle #family #love #italian #christmas #dessert #explore #fyp #foryou #reel #reels #reelsinstagram #viral #viralvideos #viralreels #trending #trendingreels #instagood #instagram #instadaily #instamood #instalike #instalove

Here in Canada and in many places around the world Here in Canada and in many places around the world, we take this time to remember and honour our veterans who have made incredible sacrifices for us and for our country. Canada, this beautiful place we proudly call home. 🇨🇦You are in our hearts, and we will always remember how we got here.. True respect, forever and always.🙏❤️🇨🇦 This poem, In Flanders Fields, was written by a Canadian doctor and soldier, Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae. It’s so near and dear to my heart. I only read the first few lines, but do you know the meaning behind the red poppy we wear?❤️🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦❤️ Canadians wear it throughout the month of November to remember and honour our veterans.🙏🇨🇦 But there’s more to its story. During the muddy battles of the First World War, these beautiful, vibrant red poppies bloomed across the devastated fields.😔Their resilience and striking beauty became a symbol of hope and remembrance, just like our brave soldiers.🙏🇨🇦❤️ Today let’s Respect, Reflect and Remember.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏Lest We Forget.❤️ #canada #love #respect #reflection #prayer #blessed #grateful #explore #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #instagram #instalove #instamood #instalike #instadaily #instapic #instafashion #insta #viral #viralvideos #viralreels #trending #trendingreels #trend #reel #reels #reelsinstagram #video#blogger

Italian Potato Croquettes. This is one way I make Italian Potato Croquettes. This is one way I make them.👌 They’re soft, tasty and I have a little surprise in there for you when you bit into them!!!🫣Yum….Smoked goodness in every bit!!😜I added smoked mozzarella bc potatoes need a little kick.👏I made two different versions…baked and I also made 3 fried to show you. What can I say, the fried ones are obviously a whole new level of flavour!😩I try and stay healthy most of the time and stay away from fried food, but I have it a few times a year for special occasions. So if you fry them this will be your cheat day. It will be so worth it.🙏😜👏These must be eaten nice and hot so the mozzarella with Ozz out and the potatoes will be very soft too.👌You can make a homemade aioli spicy sauce to go along with it or eat them on their own. You can freeze them in ziplock bags. They’re great as a side dish or a meal with a salad and veggies, for lunches, snacks. Dinners don’t always have to be pasta and meat.🤷‍♀️Enjoy!👌👩‍🍳😋 Recipe posted in my caption below.⬇️ #explore #fyp #foodie #instagram #instadaily ##reelsinstagram #recipe #ınstagood #instalike #instamood #foodlover #love #insta #reels #reelsinstagram #reelsvideo #reelsviral #viral #viralvideos #viralreels #food #foodblogger #trending #trendingreels #healthylifestyle #healthy #delicious#amazing #foryou #foodporn
Part3. This collection has been a true labour of Part3. This collection has been a true labour of love, a dream I’ve worked so hard to bring to life for both you and me. You asked, and I listened. 👩‍🍳🙏 My standards are very high when it comes to choosing the perfect kitchen products, and it was essential for me that they be made in Italy. 🇮🇹 These timeless pieces are designed to be passed down through generations, just like the cherished pots and pans I still use from my Nonna and mother-in-law. They’re more than kitchen tools; they’re treasures that hold memories and stories. The stainless steel pots and pans are not only stunning, but also durable and crafted to last a lifetime. This is the quality I’ve always known, and now I’m so excited to bring a piece of my kitchen into yours. Every dish you make with them will feel a little more special because nothing beats Italian craftsmanship. 🇮🇹👩‍🍳🙏 This is such an emotional, full-circle moment for me. 🤗 I started sharing my love for cooking with you on Instagram back on April 28, 2023. From the very beginning, so many of you asked where you could find the Italian products I use. I promised that one day, I’d make that possible and today, that dream has come true. Fifty-eight years ago, my parents opened their supermarket right here in Toronto, Ontario. What many don’t know is that it was more than a grocery store. They sold kitchen supplies, bedding, toys, and so much more. Now, almost 60 years later, I find myself following in their footsteps. Entrepreneurship has always been in my DNA. As a child, I dreamed of having my own business one day. My parents used to tell me it wasn’t easy: no vacations, no weekends off, no pensions, just long days & hard work. But through their example, I learned the value of dedication & passion. Today, I’m proud to honour that legacy & fulfill my promise to you. Welcome to La Bella Italia Collection from my heart & my kitchen to yours. 🇮🇹👩‍🍳❤️ lafocacciaqueen.com #explore #fyp #foryou #amazing #instagram #instagood #instadaily #love #inspiration #instalike #instamood #insta #trend #trending #trendingreels#viral #viralvideos #viralreels #reel #reels #reelsinstagram #blogger #food#foodporn #shopping #new#reelsvideo

Proverbio oggi e… Fai come dico, ma non come facci Proverbio oggi e… Fai come dico, ma non come faccio.🇮🇹🤷‍♀️👩‍🍳 Today’s proverb is… Do as I say, but not as I do.👩‍🍳🇮🇹🤷‍♀️This saying could not be more appropriate for what I’m about to show you.👩‍🍳🤷‍♀️🇮🇹 As you saw my Papa’s video a few wks ago, he was also cutting the fico d’india (prickly pears) without any gloves.🤷‍♀️This is how he did it in Sicily🇮🇹and continues here in Canada.🇨🇦I was taught the same way!! Is it a smart way??No it’s not. They’re called prickly pears for a reason.😩They have tiny little prickly needles that sometime come off and get stuck inside your sink. They can be quite painful. One time I had to soak my finger in hot water and have my son remove the tiny needle with the tweezers. So be smart and wear your new garden gloves like my friend Nina suggested.👩‍🍳Great idea right.👌Can you find these where you live? How about yours or your parent’s hometown?🇮🇹Let me know in the comments below. Last 3 pics was of me when I went to Italy in 2023. As you can see, lot’s of fico d’india.🇮🇹👌 I remember taking the train from Rome to Tuscany and there were tons along the tracks. What a shame. I’m sure no one picks them. I could literally eat one a day. I hear that you’re not suppose to drink wine while you eat them or else they’ll constipate you.🤦‍♀️🍷 #foodie #love #explore #fyp #foryou #instalike #instalove #instamood #instagram #instadaily #instafood #delicious #trending #trendingreels #viral #viralvideos #viralreels #reels #reel #reelsinstagram #foodblogger #foodporn #family #yummy #video #food #inspiration #insta #trend #love
