Thank you for your lovely stories and sharing them with me! I’ve learned you guys cook some amazing things and I would love to be invited for dinner 🤣🤣❤

[@vittuatatapaska4126]

Mrs Vitale I've been with you for nearly 10yrs I stumbled upon your channel to figure out how to make beef stew. My family made fun of me (even my 3yrs old at the time) relentlessly because I was such a terrible cook. I tried so hard but nothing ever came out right. Fast foreward to now. I'm asked to cook for my family holidays. Middle child of seven kids. That's a pretty impressive honor conscidering where I started. I owe it all to you! You gave me the confidence to try out new recipes. Ones my family stands by to this day. I make dozens of your recipes and WELL! We have your shredded italian beef for New Years Day every year. My daughters favourite food. She has called it all the years Italian Wedding Sandwiches. At that time your Italian Wedding Soup was my life. And still is. I have 2 quarts in the freezer at all times. We love you. I adore you! Whenever your older intro of "Hi guys, I'm Laura Vitale" would be heard my entire house would echo it back. Cause moms watching Laura again lol🤍 Thanks for all you have given me Confidence in the kitchen and my happy place! Fort Saskatchewan, Ab🇨🇦

[@tehmina195]

I'm from Toronto, Canada and I've probably been following you on KZbin since before the other social media outlets even existed. Over 15 maybe even 20 yrs (I've lost count lol). The very first recipe I made from you from back in the day started with something super easy and they were butter cookies. They were SEN-SA-TIONAL! 😅 But the one recipe my family asks for at every single holiday gathering is by far the tirimisu. I make it at least 4-5 times a year and everytime I do it's a hit. In our culture when someone praises you for your food and if it was taught by someone else, you're always supposed to say a small prayer for them so Laura, know that you're prayed for alot around here! You have brought people all over the world together for so many years over food and food is love. ❤❤❤❤

[@ViCT0RiA6]

you are so cute 💗

[@emmel4fun]

That's beautiful!❤

Been watching for 10 years and she hasnt aged at all!!

[@alexandrajenkins4122]

Laura, I’ve been watching you since I was 14 years old and I’m 30 now cooking for my own family! You taught me EVERYTHING. I can’t thank you enough. Not just recipes to use but you taught me techniques and how much salt to use, etc. Your videos are gold. I would pay for these videos!! I’ve been a member on your membership channel since it became available and love those too! A recipe I make for my family ALOT is your simple chicken quesadillas. My kids love them. Serve with some sour cream to dip and some tortilla chips and salsa. It’s something I can whip up quickly and has protein, veg, carb. Delish!!! Love you so much Laura!!!!

[@shruti4496]

Hello from India! I've been watching you since I was 17 (I turn 28 tomorrow!) and you have taught me EVERYTHING I know about food to the point where during Covid, I was running a little food business to provide homecooked meals to people who could not make food on their own and did not have any help. Also my family finds this very funny but I make better Italian food than Indian because of the influence your channel has had on me. Lots and lots of love to you and your family and thank you for all the wonderful content over the years ♥

[@vernetiah.8128]

Listen lady! I’m from the south! Here in Mississippi we don’t get too many true Italian recipes to share. I absolutely positively swear by Laura Vitale’s recipes. I have cooked your Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken recipe sooooo many times that my daughter’s new boyfriend has already considered putting a ring on it! 😂 Around here, we love good food! Thank you ever so much for sharing your lovely recipes. ❤

[@chefgiovanni]

The best cooking channel can vary based on what you’re looking for: easy recipes, gourmet cooking, or learning specific techniques. Here are some top options for different needs Our master chefs are sharing free recipes

[@trangnguyen-id1ce]

I live in WA, USA and am originally from Vietnam. I have been watching you since I studied abroad in the States, so from 17 to 30 now. I love your channel and I am pretty sure my whole family knows about it. Not only I love your recipes, but also my family does. I also share your recipes with my family and friends due to the easy comprehension and the simplification you make so everyone can follow. Among all your wonderful recipes, the recipe that I like the most is beef Wellington. Thanks to you, we do not need to go to expensive restaurants to enjoy the dish. I had tried other recipes, but they do require a lot of techniques and efforts. The way you break down the recipe as well as your detailed instruction makes my life easier. When I made the dish on Valentines, my husband fell in love with it and he devoured half of the beef :))))

[@c_s_16]

I've been watching you from New York since I was 16! The one recipe of yours that my husband and his family look forward to every year is your honey glazed ham! I didn’t grow up eating ham, but when I got married and was tasked with making a ham for my first Thanksgiving, I used your recipe. For two kids who didn’t even know how to pick a ham or how to properly place it in the baking dish, your recipe and video made it so stress-free. Last year, I didn’t host Thanksgiving, and I still hear to this day how we're never not hosting again because the ham was so missed. We met a few years ago in Disney, and we chatted about how you really helped me learn to cook! You’re the sweetest and so beautiful!

[@debsterslaboratory]

Laura, I have been following you for YEARS and your breakfast casserole is now a family tradition every Christmas morning. I stumbled on your video many many years ago when my son was still little. I've been a single parent since he was 3 and wanted to create special traditions of our own for Christmas. Your breakfast casserole is our Christmas tradition. Thank you Laura!

[@Ma_ejestic]

I never skipped any of your videos, Laura and have been your follower for years now. My husband and my team (I’m a manager) know you too coz of me and never stopped talking about you. You have inspired me to cook, experiment, not be scared in perfection, and try new things. I am from the Philippines and the very first recipe I tried from you was your Monte Cristo. That was yearsss back, 9 years ago, I know but it has become one of our favs. ❤

[@kathywashburn5124]

I'm from Las Cruces, New Mexico. I'm 64 and have been watching you for over 10 years! The dish that everyone loves is Lasagna! I was thrilled when you put up recipes with cookie butter! I had never had it! Your Biscoff Cheesecake is so delicious!!! I have a sever nut allergy and this is something I can enjoy! Thank you! I've made it for potlucks at work and even made them in a muffin tin for individual servings! Thank you, Laura, keep up the good work!

[@twilightflutes]

I've been watching since 2015, back when I lived in Italy for a few years. My husband loves your banana bread recipe. I make it whenever we have leftover bananas. I've honestly made more of your recipes than I can count. None of them have let me down. They're all hits! Thank you so much!

[@priyakakurmi7953]

I am Priyaka I am 22 years old and I am from Hong Kong. I have been watching your videos since I was 15 and never looked back. You are the reason why I had the courage to start cooking. I dared to make your Shepherds Pie and that is everyone’s all time favorite. It does take time to make but it is so worth it! Thank you for giving me the courage to start cooking and enjoying it! I will forever be a fan!😊

[@ErinMTexas]

Houston, Texas, hon! And your cinnamon roll recipe was my dear, late dad's FAVORITE!! His face would light up every time he smelled them baking ❤!!! And this dad's girl considered it pure joy to make treats for the best dad in the world ❤

[@brendaboettcher834]

Houston here as well!

[@SofiaABianco]

I'm from Toronto, Canada!! The one recipe I can make for people that they love is the bolognese recipe my dad taught me when I was younger. It always makes him smile when I make it and perfect it

[@NanaPapa123]

Hi Laura, I've been watching since the beginning. At the time, you were an enthusiastic, new bride, tripping over your words in the most adorable fashion because of your excitement and love of food! You've become more polished over the years, but that same beauty, spirit and passion still shines out from you. I am watching from the wilds of the Pacific Northwest. So many recipes have become favorites, but one recipe we look forward to enjoying every year, is your fried zucchini blossoms - wow, what a treat! It's also such a joy to see your family in your videos at times. Take good care and thank you for being a delightful part of so many lives, including ours.

[@Jeannette-Almanza]

I'm from California and I started watching you 7 years ago as a newlywed and new mommy and your recipes have been my go to since then! I love making your chicken tortilla recipe for my husband and my kiddos! Anytime I don't have motivation to cook or run out of ideas, I can't go wrong with the tortilla soup. 😋 I've made it for my in laws and parents and everyone loves it!😊

[@djbi0tch]

I'm watching from Montreal, Canada. I started watching your channel when I was fresh out of high school and living on my own for the first time. I'm now 32 and still watch your videos religiously. I've since gotten married and now have someone to cook for, and he goes crazy for my lentil soup. It's so simple and easy to make and yet he requests it all the time, even during heat waves.

[@SarinaBroflofski]

Laura, I've beed watching your videos from Slovenia (a country next to Italy) for about 12 years now. I love your spirit, energy and of course your recipes! I think your recipes greatly affected my everyday cooking, and you are an inspiration to so many of us!

[@TLC715]

I am from Alaska! You’ve honestly taught me how to cook since 2011!I found it very easy and not so overwhelming when you prep everything on the counter before cooking and also playing your video recipes every time I cook one of your recipes which is most nights. My family’s favorite recipes of yours is the Fajita Soup, meatloaf, broccoli potato soup, and cheesey bacon ranch dish + a million more. I would LOVE a signed copy of your cook book! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@rondastaysbusy]

I am from Nova Scotia, Canada and I have been following you on KZbin for about 10 years, maybe more! Time flies! The recipe that changed my Christmas dining experience was your Shrimp & Salmon with cream sauce! When I gave up eating meat, I had no idea how I would replace the traditional turkey dinner for my family. Tried this recipe 3 years ago at Christmas and everyone loved it! Now it’s become our traditional Christmas meal. Thank you Laura! ❤❤❤

[@mariesmith7520]

Hello Laura, my youngest son is 20 years old. He said to me a couple months ago, "you haven't made meatloaf and mashed potatoes in years for dinner, and I loved it. Could you please make it." I work 6 days a week, most times 10-12 hr days. But, I felt bad, so last night I made it and he danced a gig 😂 and loved it.

[@rscampbell3]

What a wonderful mother you are. He’s a lucky boy! ❤

[@stellachrysafi]

Hey! I know I am too late on this one but I just now had the time to relax while watching your videos. I have been watching you for years now, from Greece, moved to Germany and now the Netherlands. I have made your rosmarin oven potatoes for many years and to maaany different people. They are always the star of the show; not a single person that didnt LOVE them (even vegans!). Your cooking and recipes feel like home at this point ❤❤

[@murbaschek73]

I'm from Beatrice, NE. My wife absolutely loves your Marry Me Chicken recipe! I've made it so many times, and she still enjoys it just as much! Thank you for all of your great recipes. My family and I love every one of them!

[@cattingaroundmeow]

Watching from Queens, NYC! There is nothing more comforting than a bowl of spaghetti and fresh tomato sauce, with lots of parm or romano cheese on top. It is always a hit with my family.

[@JameyReads]

Hey Laura, I am from Kansas. You were one of the people who taught me to cook. I’ve been watching you since the beginning. The recipe that always goes over well in our house is Chili Mac. It is the most requested, it is always devoured, and no one ever gets tired of it. 😄 Thank you for the many years of recipes, tips and tricks to make cooking easy, fun and delicious!

[@beautyandlife94]

I'm from Chihuahua, Mexico. I've been watching you for 12 or 13 years now and always love your recipes! My favorite recipe to make for people are chicken drumsticks, potatoes, carrots, onion, zucchini, some butter and some spicy seasonings baked in the oven until everything is cooked through and soft and delicious!

[@jigjiggyjig]

Hi Laura, I’ve been watching from Chicago for many years. Thank you for sharing all these recipes with us over the years. Something my fiancé and I have loved to eat since the beginning of our relationship is pasta with a simple home made pomodoro sauce. It is our favourite dish.

[@Sushiboba2018]

Hi Laura! I am watching from Napa, CA. I’ve watched your videos for over a decade and always find myself going back to your recipes b/c they are easy to follow, and straight to the point without sacrificing on flavor. My go to recipe that was my “marry-me” moment was actually your sweet and sour chicken recipe from 2019. It tastes like real takeout and is so easy. You have a beautiful family by the way. ❤

[@mackenzielarue2775]

One recipe that I make that always pleases the crowd is my Bolognese with Pappardelle. I also wanted to let you know that your pizza dough recipe is spot on and we use it every chance we get. Thanks for all the awesome videos, keep em coming.

[@crystalgutierrez5312]

I’ve been following since your Chicken Marsala recipe 14 years ago! It was my first time cooking for a large group and I was totally clueless on what to make and soooo intimidated. Your chicken marsala recipe saved me! It came out delicious and everyone loved it. You’ve never strayed me since ❤

[@Brttan]

I just now made this. Once the chicken was cooking, I proposed to myself. I can’t wait for my hubby to get home and try it. Wow the whole house smells amazing. The dish was heavenly. Thank you!!

[@kathleenquint8487]

Laura, my family and friends in San Jose, CA love every dish that I got from you. I have been enjoying your channel since 2016, but regularly since 2020. Go to recipes that never fail and earn applause: Salad that rocks my world, raspberry blondies with the lemon curd (I have a Meyer Lemon tree that gives and gives), pork tenderloin with the balsamic and the potatoes. So many more! Thank you for your passion for food.

[@lady11ish]

I’m from Toronto Canada. I’ve been making your red skin mashed potatoes every Thanksgiving for years now. My family requests it. And we now have little kiddos of our own who love it. Thank you ❤

[@dianacarbonara7267]

I’m from the Niagara Region in Ontario, Canada. I’ve been watching you since 2012 when I was on my first maternity leave. The recipe that my husband and 3 boys absolutely love is your rigatoni pepperonata! It’s been a favourite here for years! Love your channel and the countless recipes I’ve made of yours!

[@nicole..alessandra..moscato]

Ciao Laura i’m from illinois and have been watching your videos since the beginning! i originally started watching due to having so much in common with you! my father grew up in Palermo , got married to my mother who grew up in rome and then they moved to the states from Sicily to start a family and open up a pizza place when they were 18. i worked in the pizza place growing up and i loved that you incorporate both italian and american recipes but love the most that you have such a good relationship with your nonna. it reminds me of my relationship with my nonnina on my mother’s side. i love that you can speak both languages because i always found it hard growing up to find people like me who spoke Sicilian and English! my special thing to cook is (now don’t laugh) pastina. yes very simple but reminds of being a young girl with my nonnina when she would make it for me when i wasn’t feeling well and it always to me is a meal to make someone you love feel better. more of a nostalgic feeling i guess. ❤

[@CindyValentin-e1k]

I’m from NJ! Now living in Orlando, FL. Laura, you taught me how to cook! I’ve been following you for over ten years. Thank you for teaching me to cook bravely ❤. The dish that my husband LOVES is called llapingaucho which is a traditional Ecuadorian recipe 🇪🇨

[@rebekaabraham250]

Hi Laura! I’m watching from Canberra Australia! Which unbeknownst to a lot of people is the capital of Australia haha. I’ve been watching you since I was 12! I needed a quesadilla recipe for my Spanish class all the students were asked to cook a Spanish/mexican dish and I remember coming across your videos and falling in love with the way you cooked and presented your content. I’m 23 now and still watching all your videos! I’d say the dish I make and I known people will love is my chicken biriyani! My family has a very specific way of making it and everyone we feed it to falls in love! (Lemme toot my own horn for a sec 😂) Sending you much love Bek ❤

[@alexisjohnson2020]

[@victoriacomplitano396]

Hi Laura! I've been watching you for about 8 years from PA and now from NJ and my family loves all of your recipes.

[@BayShore2001]

Hey Laura I'm watching you from NC-originally from Long Island. I started watching you roughly 7 years ago when my husband wanted some homemade caramel sauce. I found your video on KZbin and it's the BEST caramel sauce we've ever had. Since then I've been a fan and have introduced my mother-in-law to your channel. I highly value your recipes and expertise in the kitchen. We enjoy all of your recipes, but the caramel sauce will forever be a family favorite. So thank you for that :0)

[@TheresaMarrapodi]

It’s 702 Friday, August 9, 2024. Laura, I have been watching you. I believe when you first started, you are a breath of fresh air and very enjoyable to watch.

Laura you were the first Channel I subscribed to when I first discovered KZbin! My best recipe that I know everyone will love is my cheddar broccoli soup. But the recipe that my family and I love the most and I got it from your channel is your skewered chicken and rice recipe. Also, we make your sweet potato casserole every Thanksgiving. Honestly, we make a lot of your recipes! You are fabulous and absolutely love when you guys go outdoors and cook all together with Godfather and Pops and your husband. So so much fun I feel I’m there with your family!

[@sophiarashid7425]

Hi Laura, I’ve been watching you since your beginning and now both my girls (4 and 7) love you and your recipes - they actually fight to watch your videos! I’m originally from the US relocated to Australia and been here for years! One of the meals I made my husband (for his birthday) in the very beginning of our marriage (been 14 years now) :) - that he loved was a garlic chicken with mushroom sauce over a bed of mashed potatoes. He loved it! He hadn’t ever had anything like it before being from Pakistan originally. It was yum! :) love you girl! Your recipes are my go to and have the most flavour to all chefs out there! I get so many compliments and always let them peeps know where the love came from! ;) God bless!

[@cazlee4493]

I’m a Rhode Islander living in Melbourne Australia and my favorite recipe is your pizza dough which I make once a month and it reminds me of the pizzas from home. Been following your journey for more than 10 years, I’d love your latest book!

[@gooseygirl1]

Hello Laura! Long time watcher (like 13 years now), fellow Italian and a better cook than I used to be because of your videos! I'm writing from sunny and beautiful Surprise, Arizona where we don't even ovens to cook. We just take our foods outside in the middle of summer and let the heat do the rest! lol The recipe that is my go-to for impressing anyone is, let's be honest, most everything I cook because I make a lot of your recipes and have been perfecting my own recipes for 50+ years...but the one that gets requested most often is your creamy chicken and rice (the one your little Mia will eat even though she's the pickiest kid on the actual planet) lol. Simple, easy, delicious and every time I make it, it's gone in an instant! I make it a minimum of twice a month. The additions I usually put in is mushrooms, peas and fresh chopped scallions. Divine!

[@HooliganMomma]

I've been watching you Laura for 12+ years!!! So many of your recipes are my family's favorites!! The one recipe that everyone around me, my kid's schools, friends, family love is my perfected Chocolate chunk cookies!! The one recipe of YOURS that my family is losing their minds over is: Your Chicken Meatballs with creamy Parmesan sauce...they could eat it every day of their lives!!! Thank you for the chance to win your amazing cookbook!!! xo

[@amandakhan2642]

Hey Laura, so I've been tuning into your KZbin series for about 10+ years, from Mississauga, Ontario in Canada. I learnt about your channel from my cousin who lives in Trinidad. She introduced me to your channel at a time where I was struggling. Therefore, your videos became a form of therapy for me. I come from a Trinidadian background (like Nicki Minaj lol), but found my culture's food too time consuming . I married my "University Sweetheart", who is of Middle Eastern descent. I learnt his late mother's recipe for stuffed Zucchini. It was then that I learnt to make time consuming recipes. Lol But everytime I make it, it's an absolute hit! It's worth every moment making it, and every bite savouring it. Cheers!

[@joeciacchella556]

Hi Laura! Macomb, Michigan here. I’ve lost count of how many years I’ve been following you and love all your recipes! Some of the big hits in my family are Penne with Vodka Sauce, Limoncello Tiramisu, Strawberry Shortcake Coffee Cake, Best Blueberry Muffins, of course Cinnamon Rolls, and many, many more. Your Italian family values are near & dear to my heart and watching you with your Nonna never fails to bring a tear to my eye, reminds me of my mom & my nonna. Keep going and I, like millions of others will continue to follow! OH, and let’s not forget my grandkids favorite, GARLIC KNOTS!! We have so much fun making them together! Love you Mrs. Vitale! 😘😋

My favorite recipe to make is actually yours, the raspberry cupcakes you made 13 years ago.

[@mohanaprabha9984]

Hey everyone!!! I'm Mohana from Singapore!! I have enjoyed your content for years Im very glad that you continued to stay on here to make long-form videos because Im able to share a part of me (through your videos) with my current partner. I love cooking and I hope that one day I have the space to do so. Since meeting my partner, Ive been able to live moments of that with him in his kitchen and so my favourite recipes are ones that we've made together (yes, very cheesy). We've made gnocchi from scratch, he's made Oyakodon for me when I wasn't well, we bought the real deal olive oil while in Italy and learned to look for quality, store bought pasta and bought cheese back and made multiple dishes w them - pesto, red sauce etc. We've also explored making desserts only with an airfryer on hands - lava cake, carrot cake. All these to say is that, your videos have came in handy all these while because I've created a good foundation of skills and understanding of ingredients from watching you! So even if I don't win this signed copy of your cook book, I'm thankful that you have always been a part of my cooking journey! Cheers Laura and online family!

[@YouTubeFan93-qi6ln]

Hi Laura! I am watching from Nebraska, USA. The one recipe I know I can always make is my special black beans. Every time I make them, I always get compliments from my family, especially my older sister. She absolutely loves them. The key ingredient when I make them is adding vinegar and cumin. Makes it earthy and tangy, super good! Plus, it's what I grew up eating and I was always in the kitchen when my mom made it, so she taught me how to make them and then I made it my own when I grew up. Add some rice and chicken to it and it's a whole complete meal. Delicious!!!

Hi Laura! I'm from San Juan, Puerto Rico. I've been watching your channel since I was a teen, and now I'm 30 years old. I love to cook! A recipe that my family loves is fricase de pollo. I love your pasta recipes❤ thank you for sharing your knowledge all these years.

Laura....girl! I've been watching since your first kitchen in your old house! The little burner on the counter, all the shelving over in the corner with all your "stuff". Changing the flowers in the "window" with the seasons. So many recipes of yours I've tried from your website and first cookbook (with the boilerplate). I'll never forget making your pastiera for Easter after hunting down the Grana Cotto! Loved it and still make it when I can find the grana. All long before Mia Valentina came along! ❤ I'm still here north of you in New Hampshire lovin every video!

Hello, I'm watching from Winnipeg, Canada. and OMG I made your marry-me chicken and loved it and now I know what I'm making for dinner tomorrow! i feel like I've been watching you forever, you taught me a lot of the basic cooking skills I still use today. i remember my sisters and i first watched your fettuccine alfredo video from like 10+ years ago (which is mind-blowing to think of) and loved it. i still make that recipe today and love it. the one recipe that i can make and everyone loves it is my butter chicken. my dad taught me how to make it every time i make it, everyone loves it. it's not something i make often but when i do it's always a big hit! Anyway, i love your videos! i hope you continue to share your awesome recipes!

Hi Laura! I am from Lynchburg, Virginia. I have been tuning into LITK since summer of 2015 (9 years now?!) and I have learned how to cook by watching your KZbin channel… I knew nothing (cooking wise) before watching your channel but you gave me confidence to try. My favorite recipe to make if yours is your carbonara! My husband says 10 out of 10 every time I make it! Thank you for your authenticity! We love this channel!

[@vitarotella7043]

I'm from Bergen County, NJ and have been following you for several years enjoying all your recipes. This one pot recipe is a winner! I am certain my family will enjoy it. Whenever I make homemade pasta with Sunday Sauce they come running to my house! To go along with homemade crusty Italian Bread! Thx for sharing this recipe!

[@rameeshashah8294]

Laura..I have watched for what feels like forever. I am now 32 and I watched you since your OG introduction. Way back when episode numbers were a thing. Thank you for having us all at your Italian table for so many years. It has been incredible. I watch from the UK and my 1 go to recipe for my husband that I know will never fail me is my mint lamb chops. Until we meet at the table again 😊

[@lorenagalvez8124]

Hi Laura! I'm watching from Montreal, Canada. I am so thrilled to read all the beautiful comments from your fans. It is absolutely amazing! I love your recipes with all my heart. I have followed your channel on KZbin for 10 years! The same amount of time I've lived in Canada since I emigrated alone from Cuba, and I've learned almost everything I know now in the art of cooking thanks to you. My mum used to tell me to come watch and cook together with her so I learn and wouldn't starve in Canada, lol, to which I used to reply:" its ok mum, I will find a way", and I did, I found you! Always been a fan of italian cuisine, who isn't? One of my favorite disches is cheesy potato and broccoli soup. Yummy, specially on those chili days ❤ Thank you so much for all these years of delicious recipies accompanied by so much love and charisma ❤

[@LoveNectorxoxo]

I’m from Toronto Canada and the recipe (by far), that my husband asks for all the time is my chilli! You can’t beat it with some sour cream, cheddar cheese and some crusty bread 🍲

[@KiaNguyen]

I’m from upstate New York! My favorite dish to make is Pho. I’m Vietnamese, and in my culture, you show the people you love by filling up their bellies! I love Pho because you can make a whole pot of it and feed so many people! My fiancé loves the dish as well! ❤

[@agneslau50]

I am from Singapore, and I love cooking your pasta recipe to my family members & friends. It never ever once failed to surprise them

[@LucyT407]

Hi, watching/following from Frederick, MD since you started making videos in your old kitchen! One of the first recipes I tried was Linguine w/ Spicy Shrimp Al Diavlo (Diablo) and my husband LOVED it! Another favorite that I make routinely is your spaghetti with fresh cherry tomato marinara from 12 yrs ago. Another family fav are the oven roasted potatoes using your original semi cook in microwave - place in ziplock with olive oil+rosemary+garlic+salt - dump into heated cast iron skillet method. Many more of your recipes (too many to list) are on my monthly rotation and they never disappoint. Your videos have turned me into a great cook! It has been a joy watching you evolve through the kitchen transformations, new recipes, and your family videos. Keep them coming and thanks!

Hey Laura! I'm watching from a tiny island where it's summer all year round - Singapore! I've been watching your channel for over 15 years now and the one dish that I love making for my family and loved ones, that I've learned from you, is your ham and mushroom pennette. I can't get pennette where I'm from, so I've used macaroni, fusilli, whatever is on hand. I've been making it for over a decade now, it's now my family's comfort food. Thank you for sharing all these easy and delicious recipes! *Just checked the recipe, it was from 12 years ago. GOSH!*

[@lauracarr5918]

I'm from Gold Coast, Australia. The recipe that I love to make, eat, share, and everybody absolutely loves is your recipe of "restaurant style Parmesan Garlic Wings"...OMG they are to die for. Thank you for sharing your recipes and for being you. xxx

[@cindymccloud3161]

I originally watched you on a show where you and another chef would improve a recipe. I can't remember the name. I have been watching you on youtube for several years and have your first cookbook. Your recipes have never failed me. Your pantry focaccia got me back to bread making as your recipes for bread are so easy and foolproof. One recipe I make regularly for me and my husband is your Rigatoni with Sun Dried Tomatoes and Burrata. This was the first time I had heard of Burrata and we are hooked. This recipe is so simple and delicious. I have made if for friends also. Always a hit. Keep the delicious food coming!!

[@lyricalpoets]

Hi! I’m watching from California! The one thing I make that everyone loves is my grandmothers pasta salad. It’s full of veggies, salami, pepperoni, and cheese in an Italian dressing. It’s so good it doesn’t last long once made.

[@marianavidales]

Hi Laura! I’m watching from Mexico and have been for at least 8 years. I have made so many of your recipes, but I have to say that your bolognese (the one on your first cookbook) is the one I do at least once a month. Thank you for all the inspiration and for making me a better cook! As my husband says: you are my kitchen sensei 🥰🥰

[@Cvitti]

I’m originally from Portugal raised in the states married an Italian. We now live in Florida and our families favorite recipe and asked for all the time is your chicken, potatoes and peas. Oh and my husband also loves your meatloaf!❤

[@beachydayz]

My family’s favourite meal is chicken tortellini, hands down. Although any Italian dish I make they love. My French Canadian grandmother had an Italian neighbour and they loved to cook together each adding their own spices. Love all your recipes Laura. 🙏🇨🇦

[@Vlad-du6nu]

So me and my wife are from a small town south of Windsor Ontario...our soil here out of this world for fruits and vegetables 💯...the first time I ever cooked for my love I was a bit nervous...so I checked on KZbin for a good recipe...and I found your channel( you made meatballs) so I followed your directions and boom she was impressed 😎...it's been 11 years now and we both love watching your show immensely 🙏...thank you so much for sharing you with all of us ❤

[@alexandrabuchanan3074]

Mrs. Vitale, this recipe looks so delicious (like all your other ones) I wish it was on your website to print out. Also wanted to say that your Chicken Piccata would be a dish my husband loves. I know he will love this one too!

[@Mettewanning77]

From Denmark, I dont cook, but I like watching people who are good at it cook. My husband makes a mean lasagne.😊

[@hilitaXD]

Omg I randomly remembered Laura today, I used to binge watch her over 10 years ago and haven’t watched her videos for a long time now and I’m so delighted to see that she is still doing videos and remained as authentic as I remember her, even the little outro at the end, so nostalgic 😭

[@kimberlymcgraw3]

from Jacksonville, FL. I have been making your garlic bread what seems like with every meal since it is always requested. You are a light and I appreciate you!

[@louisevietro73]

I am from West Warwick, Rhode Island. One of my favorite recipes from watching your KZbin channel is your pizza dough recipe. It was one of the best dough recipes I have ever made. Whenever I make a couple of pizzas for my friends, they always ask me for the dough recipe. I even followed your directions completely, and I was amazed at how easy it was to work with. Thank you, Laura, for making these recipes so easy to follow and delicious to eat.

[@aprilbrecht8847]

I'm watching from Texas. I've been watching you for the past 12 or 13 years. My most favorite recipe that just hits every time in my house is the fettuccine Alfredo. My family absolutely loves it.
