How is February almost over?! What was the best thing you made and your favorite memory from this month?? 🌞🍊🤍mine was the agrodolce halloumi and going to a pasta-making class with my momma!!
@@ellenradford8582 that’s so weird! The video is public and there’s no issues so you should be able to comment 🤷🏻♀️ and thank you sooo much for requesting that topic :) I’d love to expand more on it!!
@@CarolineLFranco well, I love that topic and any advice you may give. I am probably like many people who want to follow Mediterranean Lifestyle but are not really good at figuring out what to do and what to put together. As well as my big issue has been portion control and protein sources that are not meats
Don't be disappointed at all. Every video I have seen of yours has inspired me to get in kitchen and experiment with healthy foods. You should be proud of them all! 😊
Thank you so so so much Melissa 🙏🏼🙏🏼I truly hope that I can continue to inspire you with fun healthy food 🤗 thank you for sharing this with me, you’re so awesome!
Caroline- I follow you because you come across as authentic! You are unique, relatable, and funny. I truly hope you stay true to yourself instead of comparing yourself to other content creators and changing. Sounds like our household is sick with the same crud…
Nancy thank you so much! This truly warms my heart to read! I had no idea the things i chatted about would illicit this much kindness! You are amazing, i'm so grateful for you and your support Nancy!!
What I love most about you and your videos is YOU! You are sweet, genuine, and just a little light in general. Thank you for entertaining and informing me at the same time. I very much enjoy your videos.😊 Be gentle and encouraging on yourself when you don’t meet your own expectations. Sometimes yes chocolate so rich it’s not too sweet. Yes, the expectations are the problem rather than the person not meeting those expectations.
Someone grab me a tissue 😭🤧 reading this comment felt like i was talking to a friend and that's all i've ever wanted was to make friends on here! 💕 thank you so so much for taking the time to write these beautiful words with me :) i've saved this comment and have made it my new screen background! You are such a gift and amazing soul and i hope you are reminded of that every day!
Okay I am embarrassed… 🥴🤣 I used my microphone to send that comment and I believe that it picked up part of your video while I paused between words😂 It should’ve read ‘Sometimes the expectations are the problem rather than the person not meeting those expectations😊’ You just reiterated how sweet you are. You didn’t even mention that my comment literally made no sense😑. Miss Caroline, you are coming across just like you hoped. Just continue to be you which is cute as a bugs ear. There are a lot of people in this world, and not one of us can please everyone. You are making a positive impact on this earth and in the end that’s the best thing we can do in our lives. You are young and already you have a grip on your creative side…it is awesome to watch!😏 Be confident in it, millions of us would love to be brave like you✨
I agree with all the comments are saying that your videos are the best and just be you. I love how natural and organic you are and you just say it how it is. I prefer that over some perfected Fantasy life
Thank you Marci 🤍 this is SUCH a kind and encouraging compliment 🙏🏼 seeing realistic lifestyles on social media is rare and I’m grateful that I’m able to share reality! Because most the time when I consume content of an unrealistic life it’s pleasing at first but then leaves me feeling SO bleh. and that’s never how I want to make someone feel…
Don't be so hard on yourself! I find your channel very inspiring, it makes me wanna cook again. We often get wrap in a very tight schedule it's so stressful!
So happy to know my videos bring you some entertainment and inspiration 💕 life can be so stressful and I know you're doing your best which is more than enough!! And anyway I could ever help is such an honor! Thank you again ❤️
Ciao, Bella! I’m sorry you’ve been sick… So much is going around my middle one who is 19 was sick for nine days with a fever close to 105… It was awful! I watched your video while I ate my tuna salad 😂 your variation looks a lot more exciting! I personally love your videos! I have seen how you have grown and evolved and I’m very proud of you… Keep doing what you’re doing! Stay in your lane and don’t put too much steak into what others around you are doing. ❤
A fever for 9 days!?! Oh how miserable 😭 poor thing!!! Also i LOVE the irony of you eating your tuna salad while watching g me make tuna salad hehe 🤭🐟 thank you ALWAYS for being one of my best supporters Flemania! You are a rockstar and I’m sending you the biggest (non-sick) hug ever!! Ciao Bella!!! 🤍🤍🤍
Your videos made me love cooking again. The creative little twists on classic recipes and the idea of using what you have has freed me from the idea that I can’t make something if I don’t have every single ingredient in the recipe. Much love 🫶🏼
Ashely 🥹🙏🏼thank you thank you thank you! I’m soooo appreciative that you took the time to share this with me! It really helps to know when I share all the variation and substitute idea it’s not over the top! You’re amazing 🥰hopefully I can keep inspiring!!!
Yes, please make a video about weight loss!! I love all your videos. Thank you for speaking about your struggles. Everybody can relate to you, that's so nice. So please don't compare yourself to others!! And if you don't mind, please share the recipe for your protein coffee❤❤
Awe thank you so SO much 🙏🏼 I will definitely dive more into this topic I really appreciate the request 😊 your kind words are amazing, so encouraging!! You’re so sweet 🥹
I'm commenting to agree with what everyone else has already said. You do you and don't worry about what others think. I like you because you are genuine. I also want to say: I'm going to be honest with you and tell you that I'm old enough to be your mom. I started watching you for recipes because I want to follow the Mediterranean diet. After a while of watching you, I realized (because you kept reiterating it and finally, I really listened) I realized that it's a lifestyle and I needed to start embracing all of it to get the most benefit. I started watching your other content. I was skeptical, because as I said, I'm old enough to be your mom, and I wasn't sure what you may be able to teach me about living. I was wrong. You have taught me so much about food and finding balance in your life. I'm very thankful that I found your channel and I look forward to what's to come. I've really started to love that you bring items you created from other videos and carry them through to the next video to I have started looking into the 6 to 1 shopping plan and like the idea as a way to keep from wasting food and to think more out of the box when making meals. I would love to learn more about how you shop and what a typical grocery store visit looks like to you.
Ciao Julie 🤗 hope you don’t mind my delayed response😬better late than never!!! I don’t know where to start but I think I have to say first off THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART 🥹 your acknowledgment and encouragement and just taking the time to write all these kind and positive things, you are truly amazing!! Your honesty is very much appreciated because I completely understand that being young can make me seem more naive but always try to come from a place of inspiration or storytelling! You obviously know so much more than me in probably every other area but I really appreciate you sharing this with me! Now that I’m pretty much finished moving I think I will start doing more grocery shopping for 3-4 meals at a time types of videos because it seems like it would be helpful to show how the same things can be made in variations so there’s no waste!! Promise this will be a video series started in the next month or so :)
Honestly I am so impressed with your creativity in kitchen! I love that "inperfect" part of you, that you share your mistakes and worse days. I just realised that we all are just a human beings and even the one Caroline Franco form youtube makes mistakes.. wow 😂
Aweeee Karoline 🥹🥹🫶🏼🫶🏼you rock beautiful, you really know how to MAKE my day!! I love being able to share despite my imperfections and just be able to connect with others because we are all human and need that 🥰thank you for lifting me up with your sweet words! We are all lucky to have an amazing soul like yours on this earth 😘
You really shouldn't be so hard on yourself. I think you are amazing, and I look forward to your videos, it doesn't matter if you have a well-organized plan or just spur-of-the-moment talk about food etc. You have a good vibe and I'm all about that!!! ♥
Reading your sweet and kind words NEVER fail to warm my heart and make my day Terri 🥰🫶🏼thank you isn’t enough!!! In case you need that reminder too, be kind to YOU! You are wonderful and special and deserve every and all good things 🤗sending you the biggest hug, sorry it’s taken me so long to respond!!
I've been following the Mediterranean Diet as much as I am able to for about two months now and am finding a lot of inspiration in your videos! One area I'm struggling in is including whole grains so I'd love a video on how to incorporate more whole grains into your diet.
Yes, I do shop at Trader Joe’s. Because they hav a lot of stuff that is perfect for one person. And yes, their produce is often crappy. But so I still the produce at my local Sprouts. Most recipes are for 4 people. And even if I cut them in half, it’s still too much and I have trouble getting through the leftovers. I also hate wasting food. Perhaps offer some content about cooking for one (or two). Hope you feel better!
Thank you so much, I really love this request! Single serve recipes do come in handy so I’ll start thinking of more ideas :) i appreciate it Christine!
I think Trader Joe's is good if you only cook for one. I don't really like their produce, I prefer the produce at Vons. I always feel I didn't save any money while I shopped there. Honestly, I only go there when I go on a camping trip. I like taking some pre-made food and the packages make it easy to travel with.
Couldn’t agree more. Can’t imagine doing all my shopping there. The produce is mostly meh. I get things there to add to meals I’m making. I do like their cheese.
You are awesome and I need you to help me with something with regard to aging gracefully. But, I have a tinned fish source: Fishwife. It is pricey but delicious and small batches. Divine

I can't leave any comments on your post 😢.
I definitely want you to talk more on the focus of wholesome nutrition and Mediterranean Lifestyle.

Keep being yourself! We love the way you are!

Thank YOU for not only watching but also commenting!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it Emma
girl you're doing fine. it's okay
Thank you so much beautiful 🥰
❤the video....hope u r feeling btr
I am thank goodness 😊thank you Ela Marie
I think Trader Joe's is good if you only cook for one. I don't really like their produce, I prefer the produce at Vons. I always feel I didn't save any money while I shopped there. Honestly, I only go there when I go on a camping trip. I like taking some pre-made food and the packages make it easy to travel with.
That’s such a good idea to go there for good pre-made foods that travel well! Glad I’m not the only one who thinks that about the produce…
Couldn’t agree more. Can’t imagine doing all my shopping there. The produce is mostly meh. I get things there to add to meals I’m making. I do like their cheese.
@julieowens1769 The German prosciutto is also good.
Love TJ but produce is always a gamble.
Totally agree!!
New to your channel..protein coffee???
Haha it’s delicious 😋 I’ve gotten many requests so I’ll do a tutorial in my next video
Thank you so much 😊
Becoming an adult? Bah! Overrated! Enjoy life….it flies by so quickly…let you be You as you are amazing and so personable.
SO overrated!! Thank you so much 🫶🏼YOU are amazing as well!! Cheers to enjoying life before it passes by
You are awesome and I need you to help me with something with regard to aging gracefully. But, I have a tinned fish source: Fishwife. It is pricey but delicious and small batches. Divine
Hopefully my email helped 🙂
So glad I moved all the way to the bottom of comments. Thank you for sharing! Always looking for fish.
