Italian Grandma Makes Zucchini Parmigiana

[@michellexx5594]

I have to comment about the thumbs down. Please give this beautiful Italian grandmother the credit she deserves. She cooks from her heart and she sings beautifully. Food is love and you can tell this grandmother loves her family.

[@lollywenzel7276]

I LOVE this woman. From her running commentary on food, life and family to breaking into joyful singing, her work ethic and lord the food she makes, she is THE BEST. She is an inspiration for living a good life. What a joy

[@twosongs7396]

I just ordered your cook book, Nonna Gina but it’s not like watching you on video. I lost my Husband of 30 years in May 2022. I’ve been sitting on my sofa, in a fog, ever since. Your videos are the first thing to make me smile. I even sing along with you, something I will not be able to do with your book. Could you please put ALL of your videos on DVDs, in case anything should happen to these or to KZbin? I would buy these off you. I love the Light which radiates from your kind and beautiful face. I started singing in the house again, this week, because of you. Thank you so much for all the Joy you bring to my heart. I’m so happy to have found your channel. I’ve been spending hours binge-watching you since I found you, a few days ago. You bring me back to a time where I used to make the very same (or least very similar) recipes/food with my mother, from when I was 12 years old. {{{God bless, guide and protect you and yours - ALWAYS!! - Nonna Gina}}} Much Love ❤️🙏🏻🥰😘🌹

[@sarat8574]

I'm so sorry for your loss...I understand partly the fog you speak of as I felt that way when my mother died...I was so very lost without her. I'm glad you found joy in this channel...please know that Jesus loves you :)

I watched this and became choked up. There was a time when all the older women in my family were Gina. They are all gone now, and this made me miss them terribly. Ma, mille grazie Gina. You helped to bring back so many wonderful memories.

I love you Gina. Love your singing, talking and cooking. Your family is so fortunate to have you. Watching you in California and can’t stop smiling of joy.

[@Dbzjohno]

Hello Gina I hope this message reaches you. Me and my mother loved watching your videos. Your cooking and singing always put a smile on both of our faces. Unfortunately my mother has passed away from her long battle of cancer a few days ago but during the hard times your videos always kept her spirits up and has put a smile on her face every time you posted a new video. I was very happy that when you returned after being off of youtube for a few months that my mom was able to see your last video. She always told me that she would of loved to meet you and to tell you what a wonderful person you are. She loved your cooking and your singing. She may not be able to see this or future videos but I will continue to watch them for the both of us. Thank you Gina for making my mother happy even if it was thru a computer screen. Love you Gina.

This makes me cry good tears...as the only Irish girl growing up in an Italian neighborhood ..I have such wonderful memories of my friends mothers and grandmother's who loved cooking, who were the "best cooks" and always wanted to feed you! Homemade pasta drying on linens all over the house, Sunday sauce, homemade wine...and unbelievable Christmas cookies. God bless you Gina...you bring joy!💕💕💕💕🍷

[@ginomancuso104]

People who give a thumbs down aren’t cultured enough to realize that she is traditional. Her singing is beautiful,typical of what is done. Too bad they haven’t experienced Italian culture.

Hi Gina, tonight I made your zucchini Parmesan recipe and it was absolutely delicious! My daughter does not like eggplant and it is a good alternative to eggplant parmigiana. My husband on the other hand loves eggplant and always wants me to make it. This year we planted a bunch garden and grew everything we needed but the zucchini plants didn’t do well and we only got about four eggplants. Oh well there’s always next year. ❤
