Easy is always for me 🙂 In a couple months it will be fall again (my favorite time of year) and time for soups! Tho at least with the crockpot you won’t be heating up the house if you were to make it in the middle of summer.

Hi. I’m Sicilian and just saw this recipe. It is very similar to my Greatgrandmother who was born in 1880 in Palermo. I remember helping her make it when I was 10. Even at the age of 85 you would still find her cooking up a storm. Since there were no grocery stores when she,my Grandmother and my Mom had to use what was available on our Olive farm. Once a week we would meet up with the other farmers and each would share with the others. We’d give our Olive Oil and swap for Parmesano Reggiano Cheese or other things we needed. Reading about you and this recipe brought back so many incredible memories. We still own our farm. I’ve got 6 kids between 39 and 49 years old who also were born there. Before Covid 19, we’d make sure one of us was on the farm. Our kids who are all working for Doctors without Borders have been stranded in foreign countries all over the world. There’s plenty of work in each country due to Covid19. They used to always come home at Christmas, my husband and my birthdays and spend at least days with us. It’s hard on us not being able to see them in person and hug them. Since each of them loves to cook especially using a crock pot I’ll be sharing your awesome site. Saving money and yet the food tastes great, is exactly what our familia needs. Grazie for you sharing all the tips and recipes. God bless Robin Love in Houston Texas.
