Hey it’s time for a day in the life with us well I’m starting this video late it is now 11:55 in the morning what have you been doing all day D well I got up I went to church went to mass got my ashes I

Filmed a video the rest of my gallon val day video which you far we’ve already seen make sure you get to check it there is a good recipe and there’s a giveaway on that but today I’m trying something new I mentioned it in my weigh-in video

Since it’s Ash Wednesday which is a day of fast and abstinence for meat for us I normally have two small meals and dinner which is you know I always say I fast all the time I’m on Weight Watchers I feel all the time um I normally have

Like there’s b a piece of toast for breakfast um and usually a salad at lunch but I’m trying to completely fast just have dinner we’ll see it’s now I’ve almost made it till noon time so I have about about what four or five more hours to dinner I’m making pasta Vaz so we’ll

Make that together even though I’ve already done it on the channel but we need to do something on this video right I could have filmed tomorrow but I would have to upload it on Friday and I have trying to do my Food Finds for Friday so

We’re just going to like hang out uh I don’t I don’t think we’re going to I don’t have anywhere to go no I’m not going out today so we just gonna hang out Bailey there he is say hi hi everyone Hi everyone welcome to a day in our life I

Got a haircut last week don’t I look sweet I’m real okay he is a little bit of a camera hog isn’t he h but we’re going to hang out make some now I’m undecided now growing up we always had Pasa fuzo Pasa foli how however you say we say ful I should put

Fuzo in the title see if it confuses anyone um my mom made it like a thick stsh kind of way I prefer it more like a soup but we’ll see I gotta see if I have everything was I don’t I didn’t check well worst case scenario I have

I’m telling you it’s it’s such a a good um Savor is to have some dried beans in the house because I can make beans whatever I want use canned rinse them they’re fine um depends I use elbows sometimes I use shells depends on what pasta I have

Around I know I have the Tomato product that tiny girl always has her crushed tomatoes and tomatoes down in the pantry it’s whether I have the beans and the type of pasta it doesn’t matter like my mother always made shells to me it doesn’t matter I make whatever I

Have I have to go down and say so we to do we’re going to get all that together we will make some pasta foli pasta ful like I said you can um maybe I could try to explain how to make it two different ways cuz like I said sometimes we would

Just make enough sauce we’d add the pasta the pasta would just it would just be like a bowl of pasta um and then I’ve been making it lately where it’s soupy just depends on your like I said just depends on my mood some days I like it

One way sometimes I like it the other now growing up my mother always made it with chickpeas I know I have those I just they never got soft so it’s kind of like always eating a hard beam where I like the calini beans or the white kidney beans they’re much more creamier they’re

Just better tasting I hear it my forehead’s dirty look like my H so so we’ll be know what I’m eating today well I’ll show you dinner but and we’re actually going to cook today wow it took a fast day for me to show you to make dinner because I have not made a

Dinner on a vlog in quite a long time I’ve been it’s like kind like my vacation day but um we’ll see how it goes so so far so good I was going to go out for a walk but it’s so cold oh my gosh my my

Toes are cold I’m freezing I dig get a tea I am drinking unsweetened green tea you know girl needs our caffeine you know I need to get through this day so we were going to get started on our soup and uh I don’t know how I really want it to

Cook let me go see let me let me go see if I have everything because not we’re going to make some beans let’s see what we have in the pantry well little and behold we don’t have the white beans and I am not using chickpeas doing it but when

You have a well stocked pantry you keep some dried beans you could have regular beans if you have an instant pot at almost a moment’s notice it’ll take about 45 minutes we will have perfectly cooked beans so I’m just I’m undecided how much beans to

Add a b easier one I usually do two cans which are 16 oz but have two cups remember cups um I always had probably a cup and a half of beans so we should just do two cups honestly if I make too many beans then we just have too many

Beans you know so I’m going to put it’s my half cuper I’m going to put see H only like a cup would probably be we’re going to do a cup I think a cup is plenty a cup I’m going to take these over I’m going to rinse them off then I’m going to fill them with about an inch over the beans repeat after me going to rinse our

Beans off and then put cold water to about an inch over where the beans fall in the Inon pot like I said I wish I had a smaller Inon pot this is an eight qu honestly a four would be great six might be I got eight because I always wanted a

Bigger air fryer so oh when I went for instant pot I’m going to get a big instant pot yeah bigger air fryer smaller instant pot so like I said I hate I mean it does the job it just takes a little longer because it’s just bigger but yeah if

You’re in the market for an instant pot go smaller just word of a advice um so I’m going to go rinse these off fill about an inch above it and we’re going to get started started we hit the bean I will show you the bean setting and it’s

Usually about 45 minutes and then 45 minutes like I said still early we have plenty of time so always please to have a well stock Pantry all right there you can see our beans and these are I believe small white navy beans you have that about an inch there’s the

Water the line right there right above that so we’re going to put the lid on and close the V all right see where it says bean chili there you go 50 minutes it will ding us I usually let it um natural release for about 10 minutes and then we

Will drain our beans and add them to our Pasta Pasta Pasta and beans whatever you want to call it all right we have our crushed tomatoes you can use tomato sauce I use either one to me they’re interchangeable I’m using elbows cuz that’s what I have I have my oregano my

Basil fresh garlic dyed parsley and an onion and there’s a few other things water we’re going to need and that might be it so we’re just going to let these beans cook I also promised pickled mushrooms I remembered that when I was getting my onion I’m like there’s

The mushrooms so we’re going to get these in a bowl of water and clean them that is it that’s what the recipe people have said you clean them cuz you don’t normally clean mushrooms and water you usually don’t then we’re going to get our pickling brine

And just pour it over the mushrooms and you’ve seen me make the pickle brine before it’s the same pickle brine as last week so we’re going to make that and we’re going to pour right over the pickles in the jar all right we got our pickling

Heating up we have our mushrooms I just rinsed them really well these were actually really dirty shocking because I’ve not seen mushrooms this during a long time so I rinse them off under the water to get all that dirt off I put them in a large

Jar with the garlic so once this comes to a boil and that salt is just diluted or dissolved going to put it over this sink we’re going to pour it in because you know happened last time it was all over the place but we’re going to be smart about it this

Time beans are 33 minutes left so once that up comes to a boil I will get those over and then we’ll get the dog out all right I know it’s a little bit dangerous to have it next to the subsy water but you know what I live on the edge I have

My funnel in there I’m going to pour with pour a little bit yeah I better do this with with both hands but you get the idea there we go we’re just going to have these mushrooms are like light I guess they’re so maybe that’s why you

Boil them I’m not boiling mine first a lot of recipes said to boil them but Lori said I didn’t have to so I’m taking her word fork we’ll see so I’m going to put the lid on and I’m just going to shake these around I know you shouldn’t

Put a lid on things that are hot but you know like to live on the edge just going let it on the side and just roll it around here let those mushrooms absorb all that pickling juice and we’ll check on them a little bit now time to take

The dog out by that time hopefully the beans will be almost done all right you’re about to see the cutest dog ever sit down he has his coat on Timmy bought him this coat Christmas maybe a couple years ago it is his a little Hood I have a bone that’s

Why this came in before I walk but look how cute has little pockets in the back a little Hood but oh when it’s really cold or his hair is really short we put his we call this his winter par this his warmest thing that he has and know he

Does look adorable I agree I agree I agree so we just get him from our walk it’s windy out there oh my goodness but yeah all right going to take about a few minutes I have a video going up a little special galentine’s day video beans are

Done they could just um instant release it’s fine I don’t have to worry about them so I’m going to sit here chitchat with with you guys as I love to do I love doing um um what do you call um Premier videos with you and chitchat it’s a special

Video it’s a thank you video for everything and a in a giveaway so if you haven’t seen yesterday’s video better go watch and enter the contest well enter the giveaway on a contest andent the giveaway because two lucky winners will be winning a prize a good prize too good

Prizes I should say so I’m going to go do my chitchat drink my water let me tell you something is almost 1:30 haven’t eaten anything and I’m hungry yeah I’m hungry I’ve up since after 7 so I’m I’m getting hangry I feel all right though I mean

Other than my stomach and just wanting to eat I don’t feel lightheaded or anything so if I did I would definitely eat but um doing good we’ll see how about we do and if we do and if we decide to do this again we’ll see Peter’s like what’s the point

Mom he’s try thrown away but I have to do Glam squat I’m not sure going to feel up to that with not eating cuz it’s never good to not eat an exercise like that you know it’s a it’s not healthy so well I will see you back we will get

To making the pasta fuz fuzzle all right let’s start our pasta ful pasta fuli whatever you say it now I’ve done this recipe before it is already on Dish withth d.org it’s the only original site I’ve done this many years ago I like to

Try to do all my Italian I call them my Italian Heritage recipes like things that are from my childhood that I definitely wanted to immortalize on film so you know the boys ever wanted it someday or my niece it’s all done for them they can go to there they can get

It and they can have it and they can you know so you this is more it’s going to be more of a soup type one it’s going to be very liquidy again you can make it thinner add less water or throw your pasta in it and the pasta will suck it up

But I’m just going to chop my onion and my garlic and get that sautéing with a little olive oil because everything tastes better with a little olive oil this is a very um low calorie low well not calor low Point soup because it’s just tomato

Based so there really isn’t a lot of fat in it and there’s beans which if you’re on Weight Watchers we know are zero points and basically counts pasta and I am not doing gluten-free pasta because this is my favorite soup and I’m having it the traditional away

With the best tasting semolina pasta I did have elbows I did not have shells I prefer shells if you say which one do you prefer more I would say shells or didini is really good too that’s a like little didin is a little itty bitty looks like

Tubes so all right let’s get you down because you might want to watch me chop I hear a lot of people like watching chopping so I just did the onion so that is in we’re going to grab some garlic and yes I still have my garlic keeper

It’s still doing good now I do not Chop garlic the traditional way let’s this light out of the way here open up my trash cans well I love keeping the trash right next to where I chop because it’s just a choing drop of course this isn’t way just went dark D I at

There we go so I to put the garlic over the trash and rid of that skin so yeah I will have the recipe linked that’s already on the old um recipe blog just s me retyping it because it’s already done now you could put as many cloves of garlic as you

Want you know depending on the size all right now the best way everybody tells you is to put your life to the side and just slam down with your fist so you’re breaking it and it just kind of takes the loosens up the what they call the skin does it always work

Not always but sometimes it does so that is you know the easiest way to chop your garlic so yeah that’s the way they do it and sometimes I cut that little nibby bit off because I mean you know probably wouldn’t see it in there but you know I

Know it’s there so I’d be the one that probably gets it so just get that off this the slightest end just be careful you don’t hit that blade or you can use pre- chop garlic you know me I have both cuz some days you just don’t feel like smelling like

Garlic I’m grab another clove because I think the recipe calls for two cloves and I’m going to put in four cloves or you can do this you want to hit that little nubby part and pull it you also will peel the skin off as well I know all my knife out and you

Chop it curled fingers nothing tastes as good as fresh garlic I will tell you that the pre- chopped one you know it comes in handy but honestly there’s a lot not a lot of flavor in it unless you get the one that’s packed in olive oil that’s really a good

One that one is probably my favorite there we go all right let’s get this going throw that in there in the tub with the onions and we’ll grab our oil and we will SP sauté I have a g there we go just a nice clug Li tablespoon and we will sauté this till

It is translucent then we’re going to put in the tomatoes and our seasonings we’re going to put our seasoning in like I said everything on Dish with.com but it calls for Basil oregano and parsley now I do put hot pepper flakes in I put it in when I’m sautéing oh need more right

Now but I’m sauté the onions and garlic soon as they get a little more fragrant this way they will um it’ll toast the red pepper flakes it’s not spicy trust me what I tell you it just adds something a little bit extra that honestly I think is extremely

Well needed where’s my I’ll these the where’s my pepper my fun pepper that I got oh here it is this is I love this pepper it is called season it’s Lizzy’s kitchen seasoned pepper seasoning there’s all different kinds of black pepper in there I just think it’s

Really good so I’m just going to give it a shake so everything is mixed and I’m going to I’m actually going to put some H especially ground pepper too little bit of that whoops wish you’re me I tell you all the time fresh is best okay and some I’m sorry for my reach

Salt you always adjust the seasonings to everybody’s liking just want to get it some there it keep alling this and I’ll be back when the onions and garlic are ready all right see they’re just translucent let go to glial burn a little bit of red pepper flakes it’s not

A lot trust me when I tell you so I’ll pay that up that nice and toasted now I’m going to put my seasonings in because I want those all to toast as well that will help bring out their flavor just a Quick I’m going to dump in my can of tomatoes I’ll be right back we lowered our heat we’re going to dump our Tomatoes sorry it’s very loud is the hot pan and our water okay let’s give it a stir going to bring this back up to a low

Simmer I’m going to R out that can because I’m not wasting what’s in that can it was only a few seconds I’m going to transfer the beans over with a slotted spoon now if you were using can you would just put them in right now too but

Since we are just using our beans that we made so put them in like I said everything is on dish with D I might have added a little bit more beans but that’s just me I like a lot especially these I love these beans honestly I could do without the pasta to eat

Beans all the beans see is very soupy like I said everything is on Dish withth d.org will hook you up with all the spices it was parsley oregano and basil salt and pepper red pepper flakes if you don’t honestly it’s not going to make it spicy people automatically think if you

Put red pepper flakes in things it makes it spicy well if you don’t use a lot of it it doesn’t just gives it a nice little flavor and when when you toast your spices like that so good all right and after this comes to a simmer we’re going to add this secret

Ingredients parmesana cheese yes now if you want to to save it for the top you could but a little bit of Parmesan in there never going to hurt anybody this is a great meal for a meatless Monday like I said if you didn’t want to be soupy like you could

Omit most of the water but you would be surprised like all that water there was I think five cups I think I put in there it doesn’t taste like it like it has great flavor like you think oh it’s probably going to taste watery it shockingly doesn’t and this is not a my

Like I said my mother was had the original recipe this is not my mother’s original recipe this is some I gotten after I got married because I wanted more of a soupy and once you go to the Olive Garden I know an Italian who talks about the Olive Garden I’m probably the

Only Italian you know who likes the Olive Garden but when I tasted theirs I’m like I want that but they have meat in theirs so we don’t but you could put meat would be good so I let this come to a slow simmer then we’ll come back and

We’ll put the tease in then we’ll cook the pasta up and then I’m probably going to eat eat give you a closeup all right it’s starting to simmer we’re going to add our parmesan cheese 13 cup and this should simmer for 1 hour and when it

Gets close to the 1 hour we’re going to put our pasta on to boil I do not cook the pasta in here I cook it on the side cuz if you did it would suck up all the all the delicious broth that we just created see like get cleaned up like

That wish I had smell a vision if I could find the link to where I found this at many years ago I think I printed this in 2008 so if I could find that link I will definitely just link it it might be easier CU I don’t know if I

Put it in my website exactly like this I don’t know we’ll see right the pasta is bubbling away and like I said have elbows now if you wanted to drain it and then put it inside you could we like to keep it on the side and control it but

It’s again totally up to you you can definitely put it in if you want it just I like to keep it soupy so I like to keep the pasta on the side but we going to drain this put it back in the pot and then dish me up a bowl of this

Deliciousness and there you have the finished soup one cup of noodles and as much of the soup base as you like cuz it’s zero points it’s say beans unless you have to count beans then you’d have to figure it out but the soup base is

Zero just have to count my pasta for six points and I’m going to put little cheese on top and that is going to be dinner tonight before we end this video we’re going to taste our mushrooms I put them in the fridge a little while ago after they cooled

Completely let’s see now my only fear is they’re going to needed to have been cooked but I didn’t cook them so there they are they’re good now then I’ve had pickled mushrooms and they were tougher like I wonder if boiling them would have toughened them a little bit I’ll have to research that

Why maybe there’s somewhere that why you boil them but these are good I’m happy so success with the mushrooms so I like using this J cuz it’s nice and big and I can shake them all around but that is it for me in this day in the life of me and

Just have finished my dinner two seconds ago when I want to try my mushroom so I’m done eating for the day fortunately very low Point day for me my U probably did have a pack of Weight Watchers little rice cakes for two points it’s like an eight eight N Point day how

Do people do it I don’t know I’m I’m rethinking the fasting we’ll see it’s hard I it’s hard so but if you let me know in the comment section what you thought of of this soup or like I said you could um if you added the pasta

In to there it would suck up some of that so it would be more like a pasta dish versus a soup I wanted it to be soupy but that is it I will hopefully if I can find that link to that recipe I will put that in the description box

Below cuz mine my mother’s I don’t if they ever made hers but this is one I’ve been making for a long time so that is it for me I hope you enjoyed this video let me a big old thumbs up if you haven’t hit that subscribe button Jord

Is here at dish with d where we dish our life and I hope you enjoy it have a great rest of your day and I will see you later Gators

  1. Hi Dee! Thanks for showing how you made the pasta dish. I have an instant pot which I don't use much so I will try this during Lent. Bailey is adorable in his cute little parka!

  2. Someone suggested that I check my subscriptions bc YT is unsubscribing people (this has happened to me bf). ❤ Bailey❤. I need to get back in the swing of WW!

  3. I make a very similar version of this soup every month. We absolutely love it and it freezes very well. I look forward to trying your recipe. Thanks Dee.

  4. Making the soup today. I had a parmesan rind so added that. I had 2 cans of Great Northern beans so that’s what I used. I tasted the broth and it is good even though it hasn’t finished cooking. Thanks for the recipe.

  5. Great job, Dee, making it through your fast! Loved❤ Bailey's "parka"😊 Looking forward to making this Italian soup. Thanks for the recipe!

  6. I was wondering what chicken broth would be like in place of the water? Also you used crushed tomatoes vs. the tomato sauce? It looks so good. Thank you.

  7. Hello Dee…I must have missed something, please share why your fasting and only eating once a day. I know it’s lent but unsure of the fasting everyday and only one meal a day.

  8. We are actually having Ditalini with spaghetti sauce over it for supper tonight! I’d never heard of it and decided to give it a try instead of spaghetti lol so cool,to hear you mention it!
