Where there is a will, there is a way!
Pressure cooking sweet potatoes and kale.
Broccoli and zucchini on the butane stove.

I've noticed in a few different videos that you are very careful to use "I" statements as opposed to "you" statements. I really appreciate that. You tell us how you live your life, without telling us how we should be living our own lives. For people who might be inspired to make changes in their own lives, it feels inspiring without feeling like I'm being told what to do.

[@LulusWay64]

hi Kim!! thank for you noticing that and appreciating that. I do things My Way and I want more to encourage other to find what matters most to them and call it Their Way, and stand tall in that!! Lulu

[@robertaaugustini4091]

Hi Lulu! You are a treasure! I was wondering what kind of pan your new one you have on the heat? It looks like it is non-stick. I'm always looking for "safe" ones, but some reports say there are none that are safe!! I mostly use a small cast iron pan or coated cast iron like lodge or Le Creuset. Tho, heavy for storage. Praying your travels are fantastic and safe!!

I pressure cooked a sweet potato and a butternut squash a couple days ago, then cubed them.

BRILLIANT Lulu, totally love your meal prepping and the way you prepare your veggies so they still have texture and crispness👏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻❤️🙋🏻‍♀️🇦🇺

[@kayecastleman6353]

Lulu, you're an inspiration. I've always precooked my rice or quinoa to have some ready in the fridge, but I never thought of doing that with regular green veggies. It makes so much sense. One of the reasons people avoid eating vegetables is because they can be tedious to prepare, but if they're sitting in the fridge ready to eat, it's so much easier to load your plate. Thanks for sharing your tips!

Hey, Lulu! Fabulous tips! I’ll definitely start cooking more veg to have on hand to assemble meals. I forgot that I had purchased a butane stove a 18 months ago. I was hosting an Aliner Rally-I’m the Regional Director of Eastern Canada-in Kingston ON, and left my Coleman stove at home. Thus the new purchase. Safe travel, and stay well! Muskoka ON🇨🇦 Unfortunately, my Aliner shelter collapsed under the 4 ft of snow we had over Christmas weekend. This was followed by freezing rain later in the week. My Aliner was written off by my insurance company. Fortunately, I had the foresight to have replacement insurance, so it paid for most of the cost for my 2023 Rove 16RB. It’s only 16ft long, has a full bath across the back and the bed across the front. It’s perfect for me. I’ve come a long way from Sept 2015 when I had just retired an was sleeping in my backpacking tent!

[@wownewstome6123]

I've been enjoying your videos! 3:36 Please rethink that part, bcuz yes, they can explode. Use canisters labeled with CRV (C. Release Valve) for releasing excess pressure from heat. Also, *never remove/install a canister while stove is hot to the touch,* per the manufacturer. *Avoid large pans* - - they overlap the canister area and heat it up! Plus, UL Listed, etc. is needed. Storage of canisters: There are ways to store them outside a vehicle. (Manufacturer's instructions say to not store them in a building......or any enclosed space.) You really do have a great channel, a wonderful personality, and you are a joy to listen to!

I love being fully involved in the care of ME!! perhaps it can become something you enjoy. it's all about what you think about it. if it you believe it to be a chore, then it will feel like a chore. if you believe it to be a joy, then it may feel joyful!! who knows what could happen!!

In case you don’t know you could also place a small towel over the valve, and then release. You won’t have the volcanic spew of steam (which can burn you).

Hi, Try the Vital Farms ORGANIC pasture raised eggs. I always bought the black label like you but started buying the pasture raised organic......... the organic ones are bit more expensive but they are so wonderful! No issues with GMO's. Many people don't realize the black label Vital Farm eggs are NOT organic and the company does have the organic ones and they are labeled organic unlike the ones you purchased. I only eat pasture raised poultry as well and all grass fed meat/butter/ghee etc. Yes, I'm a health nut at 58 and it's so lovely to see you take such good care of yourself. Thanks for the wonderful videos

[@LulusWay64]

hi Angela! I know EXACTLY the eggs you are talking about, always always my first choice, "Vital Farms Organic Pasture Raised, Size XL", but at this store Sprouts, this was my one and only option for pasture raised. there were cage-free organic, but I would rather have conventional pasture raised than organic cage-free (because cage-free is a joke, it's trickery to the public). anyway thanks your for healthy advice to me, it was good advice!!

[@theresalowe1231]

I love that u use your insta pot on the road but u r right about not everyone having power for it, but what most people don’t realize is that an insta pot is just a pressure pot (which can be used on your butane stove) with a lot more designed bells and whistles on board. I carry my stovetop pressure cooker with me. I can use it to pressure cook or use the pot to heat water or cook corn on the cob and without the lid locked down it can be used for any purpose a regular pot can and it is just as safe as the instapot is. There are so many safety release features built into these new pots that you have to be extremely talented to make them blow😊

I love turnips cooked with carrots my mom would mash the two together and add a little butter. I could eat a huge amount of that combination. I’ve never cooked in an instant pot so I wonder if they’d be more delicious in there, of course you would be butter free. But I bet still delicious.

I remember my mom would take the turnip and throw one potato in the pot and then mash it all together!! I look forward to cooking my rutabagas!! YUM!!!

Lulu it’s a joy to watch you !! Hey I noticed your using what looks to be metal utensils on your new non stick pan. It will last a lot longer if you use wood or plastic. Both can be found at the dollar tree if need be Sitting enjoying your video after a long day at work. Thanks for sharing Karen from Florida 🌴💕

Also putting cold water in a hot non stick pan is not recommended, the shock of the cold water and the metals cause a reaction that will reduce the life of the material. Better to use hot water, keep some ready to use as your cooking, can be in a tea kettle or just a small pot that you’ve heated up.
