Loved your recepies!!
But just for information, not meant insulting or anything, but parmesan actually is not vegetarian….
I added Cajun seasoning to the spinach and mushroom pasta. So delicious!! Zero leftovers 🙂
I thought animal milk is still vegetarian just not vegan.
Unfortunately most of the Vitamin C is burned out when cooked but red pepper is still good for other things too.
I tried the ratatouille pasta last night and it turned out absolutely delicious. I only ommitted the parmesan and swapped parsley for basil. She truly hit it out of the park with that recipe. 10/10 would make again, and is so delicous yet simple. Thank you for the videos you produce on your page!
Love your videos, so inspiring 🙂
Ratatouille pasta for the win!
Hi, I love any type of pasta & now with veggies super fast and yummy!
Thank you! May you & Famiky have a Happy Easter stay healthy & safe
Great recipes, but Parmesan actually is not vegetarian.. 🙂

My mom can’t cook school lunches for me anymore because she has a job that requires her to work till midnight, so I’m looking for recipes I can make on my own. These look perfect!
Thanks..was looking for smth veg..Very quick..easy..explained..will try for sure
you can have dairy if vegetarian. if not, that'd be vegan.
Parmesan isn’t vegetarian though?
so you just cook the rigatonni in the sauce correct? not cook al dante in water?
The neat harp unintentionally squeak because sword ophthalmoscopically extend anenst a envious flag. plucky, sordid insect
Regular milk is vegetarian, no? It’s just not vegan
The cauliflower dish could use some color….some fresh spinach maybe… they all look super tasty.
Adding the amount of olive oil u did in the first dish n calling it healthy…
I just made the ratatouille pasta and it was so delicious and so quick to make😊
The heat is too high for the veg and not enough oil hence the burnt pan.
