I’m something of a vegetable addict: I can’t get enough of my daily veggies. However, that wasn’t always the case! I used to hate vegetables.
That is, until Eva showed me the light. But you can’t go from Hot Pockets to steamed broccoli rabe all at once. That’s why today, Eva’s sharing some examples from a category of vegetable dishes that helped me in my journey. They’re delicious for everyone, whether you’re a veggie lover or hater.
They’re… STUFFED vegetables.

Did you ever dislike eating your daily dose of vegetables? If you changed your mind, what are some dishes that turned you into a veggie lover?
PLEASE- i never turn my oven on anymore. Ever. Do u have any air fryer recipes?
I'm going to try the stuffed tomatoes in my air fryer. I think it'll be good.
Thanks!
First we add some of this…and a little salt. Then we add this as well….and some salt. Don't forget to add the other thing…..and some salt. Salt, salt, salt, salt…..no.
Can't wait to try those stuffed peppers. Love your channel.
I like eating vegetable and pizza and bread,I also like your videos,may you teach me some cooking methods.thanks!!😁😁😁
The peppers look delightful. My mouth wA watering.
Awesome! I'm eating less red meat and want more good vegetable recipes. Thank you. I love your videos.
But the Friggione Bolognese when do we bring it?😂
You’re starting to get the “fork wave” like your wife!
Zucchini is amazing! You can stuff them with mashed potatoes and cheese, then bake them, you can slice them and fry them, you can blanch them and then sauté them in butter or olive oil 😋
Zucchine have no taste.
My (or really anyone's) granma: hold my ladle …
Those were some amazing Italian spins on Greek recipes. I'll definitely try the zucchini in tomato sauce. Normally we do it in avgolemono.
Your content celebrates the art of Italian cuisine with creativity and warmth. Each video is a delightful exploration of vegetable dishes that not only satisfy but also delight even the most skeptical palates. Your passion for culinary excellence shines through, making each recipe a journey of flavor and discovery. Your ability to transform simple ingredients into dishes that bring joy and satisfaction is truly inspiring. And I am Floating Village Life
Mmmmmm they look DELICIOUS. Thank you for your tutorial.
Puccia Pugliese was my nickname in college
Please tell me why Italians put pasta water in their sauces? I tried it and did not like it.
Eva sounds like she's drunk all the time ) Not that I have anything against it
@ 03:42 How tall will the rice grow? Can I use American rice instead? I find that it tends to swell as apposed to growing.
Harper and Eva, do some sort of short about ADDING parmigiano or pecorino AFTER the pasta is served. I know what Americans like to do, but,,,,,
Love the channel but I am always puzzled by the very surprising absence of something VERY Italian – a glass of wine with each dish . Why ?
How are you guys not FAT? Oh, I forgot — you're young! Anyhow, I love your videos and recipes. Buon appetito!
That's a Greek dish !
The best gemista recipes for me include pine nuts and a few raisins !
Harper, your father is a world-rendowed chef. I'm sure you had more options than carrot sticks with ranch.
I just want to give you two, a quick thank you, for never bringing up politics. Watching y’all is the best getaway from the outside world. Y’all are truly a treat to watch.❤
U guys are such a charming couple ❤️
I know that tomato, pepper & zucchini are called vegetables, but they are actually fruit. & these are 3 of my favorite fruits (veggies). My maternal grandparents were Calabrese. & we loved zucchini. I've never had tomatoes or peppers stuffed the way you did. But growing up my Italian American Mom made stuffed peppers stuffed with a mixture including ground beef, cooked rice & Parmigiano or Pecorino cooked in a tomato sauce.
I agree about egg plants, but I prefer the long green egg plants I find in Thailand: the skin is thinner, softer and the taste too is softer.
Thailand has many varieties of egg plants, including small ones you eat raw.
I had trouble making the zucchini because they didn't have any grounda beefa at my market!😁😁🥒🥒🥒🥒
My mom stuffs bell peppers with minced meat and boils it in tomato sauce and it's absolutely delicious
Guys, I hate to tell you this, but there was not ONE vegetable (well, MAYBE, the herbs) in any of the dishes you cooked. Nope. Technically, all fruits. And, rice is a grain/seed. Sorry…
Eva is a goddess.
Going to make every dish – I love stuffed peppers but don’t have a recipe like you featured. Zucchini is definitely delicious in bread lol. My mother always put cut up
Zucchini in her vegetable soup. I make a lot of gazpacho in the summer because it’s always extremely hot & humid where we live. It’s just so refreshing Thanks for posting and glad to know your cookbook is available in Walmart!
The stuff can be Exchange for different vegetables 😊
The paprika's stuffed with aubergine and bread looks great. Wery Niza.
Zucchini: you can cut them in strokes Au Chinoise. Then blanche them shortly. Add other similar veggies and at the end you add 'cooked' Cous Cous. Now you can serve it warm or as a salat by adding a French dressing or vinagre/aceite.
The aubergine can be place on your stove in open flame. Keep turning until the aubergine is cooked. Then cut in half and scrape all out. Including the burn parts. Now you can add red unions, red wine vinegar, olive oil, pepper and salt. Serve cold as a spread on crispy bread toast.
What’s with grown men refusing vegetables? Several years ago I said to my nephew, You do not want to be a grown man going on a date and order chicken tenders and French fries! My aunt’s second husband is in his 70’s. She has to ‘hide’ vegetables in sauces for him as though he’s a toddler. Ridiculous.
Put that pepper stuffing on some pasta!
I love Ava's hair. Thanks for the great recipes guys.
@ 12:12 I tried to make this recipe for my wife, but we tested the filling so thoroughly, we ended up with no material to stuff the peppers with 🤣🤣🤣
I saw eggplant on the counter. Where is that recipe!?
I’ve always meant to ask.. what would Italian do with the fried oil? 🙋🏽♂️
Made the stuffed peppers leaving out the capers, absolutely gorgeous, I could eat it with nothing else, hubster wanted meat too but admitted he too could have just had the pepper, a great recipe thank you.❤
La calotta for the tomato, in French it's la calotte. It is the little cap that the priest (or the pope) puts on his head 😀
To be honest, I've never NOT liked vegetables, 😂. Even as a small child, I would eat any veggies put in front of me, with the only exception being that Thanksgiving sweet potato casserole (it was too goopy and sweet! I did like baked sweet potatoes as a kid, though 😂).
But, these recipes look delicious and I'll add them to my "to make" list! For me, a meal isn't a real meal without some kind of vegetable dish! 😅💜🌶🫑🥒🧄🧅🫛🥦🍄🟫🫘🥕🥔
Eva: mi piace il ripieno ricchissimo delle zucchine; le zucchine ripiene "old school" si facevano col "macinato". I pomodori al riso li portavamo in barca tutta l'estate perché anche se avevamo una cucina a bordo chi vuole cucinare in barca? 😀
Geez, Guys! I love all things zucchini! All the recipes look amazing, as usual. And Eva's facial expressions are always priceless!
Too many American kids are subjected to overly boiled vegetables that have a mushy texture that is under salted and has no source of acid for seasoning. Of course people won't like vegetables if that is their only experience with vegetables.
When I started to learn to cook for myself I was amazed at how much better vegetables were when they were seasoned properly. It kinda makes me angry to know I had to suffer with bitter mush for so many years when I didn't need to. Mandatory cooking classes for every student would probably save the country a fortune due to the health benefits that could be gained.
