I love these videos so much. Eating vegetable soup is very important throughout the year. I’d like to offer a small suggestion. I learned awhile back that when cooking soup with vegetables, sometimes it’s good to sauté the carrots and onion to soften a bit. Heat up or bring to a boil the chicken stock separately. Add the vegetables, mushrooms, etc. Bring to a simmer but importantly keep the lid on. Vitamins can evaporate with the steam. Cook briefly for about 20 minutes. You’re right to add bok Choy at the end. Cut off the heat. Don’t lift the lid. Let the soup stop simmering. Lift the lid, stir, and close the lid. The vitamins will stay in the pot. It’s fine to serve now,😊
Hi Christy, It’s funny you say this. We just finished filming and I did the whole thing with my hair down because Tommy said I needed to “change things up” ha!! However, it was just the two of us and my daughter (the camera-woman) having lunch , so I think we were good 👍🏼 . When I’m not on camera, my hair is always up while cooking 🧑🍳 for the reasons of which you speak. 🩷
First time here, and fell in love! You two are so adorable and just watching you cook gave me the insentive that I too can do this! Thanks! I even Sunbscribed! PS you have a beautiful home as well!
Hi Mary 💗, it is! We just finished the second half (that I froze) and drizzled it around flaky cod, that was dusted with flour and then pan fried in a bit of brown butter. Heavenly! xo
LIke you, I am inspired by a visual picture of a dish or meal. The written recipe alone does not inspire me. This soup looks delicious, and you make prep almost feel like zen therapy. Living alone... I love making soup and freezing individual portions for myself. Adding pasta or wontons later is perfect.
Yes! After my daughters left for college I went from cooking for a family to routinely cooking for myself for several years. Big adjustment! The freezer is the only way I found to cook large meals and portion out for later. It’s like having little restaurant in your own home where you can control the ingredients! At any time I’d have 3 soups and a lasagna to choose from. (Btw, I learned how to freeze in glass without cracking it! I’ll add that to a video soon!) Have an awesome day! :)
PS. I’m impressed you’ve learned how to inspire yourself so that cooking is enjoyable! Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate your comments very much 💗.
The soup looks delicious! I need to find some of those wontons. Just out of curiosity, do you compost all of your veggie scraps? Thanks for sharing another great video.
Hi Janie, yes, I try to. It’s now mandatory in California to put our veggie scraps into the green bins (along with the yard waste), so once I figured out how to do it efficiently I didn’t want to throw them away, knowing they makes he best amendment. Full disclosure, I linked “compostable” bags on my carrot ginger soup video, and I’ve learned they don’t degrade very well. Better to just to throw the scraps in a hole and cover them for a month and be amazed at how they melt into the earth! 💗
HELLO, Nice to meet you Lisa. I am a new sub. WE LIVE IN PITTSBURGH PA AND I WILL SHARE your videos TO THE BURGH*STTB. That soup looks delish. LOOKING forward to watching previous and new videos. DO you have an upload schedule. May I ask who your camera person is? Enjoy your day! Watching on Sunday, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY 02.14.23
Hello Barbara!! Thank you 😊 🙏🏻 so much! My youngest daughter is the talent behind the camera (and in editing) as a second job. She’s an Angel 😇! Our filming schedule is on Saturday, but I will be augmenting with “coffee talk” during the week on topics around lifestyle, health, well-being, peace and joy! Wishing you a sweet Mother’s Day and hope to connect again soon. 💗 Lisa

Hi Lisa I just found your channel and loving it! I can’t wait to try the kale salad and the cod and mashed potatoes!
Hi Nanette! Welcome! 💗
I love to make soup! Definitely will try this one!
I can’t wait to make this soup-it looks delicious! Btw, your blouse is stunning.
Thank you 😊. I’d love to hear how your soup turns out! 💗
@@lisaemeterio I’m sure I’ll have to substitute Napa cabbage or cabbage for the bok choy. None of my local grocery stores carry it. Which is just sad!
That is sad!
@@lisaemeterio I know!
Yum! I am going to try that soup!
Loved this video and your home tour!! ❤
😊
Looks so delicious. I can't wait to make it. Thank you.
Love your blouse. Pretty style and colors.😊
Thank you! I’d love to hear how it turns out!
Your soup does look delicious. Blessings.
