Let Lisa cook

Let Lisa cook is now Let Lisa cook, clean, organise and Nurse!

Love days like today when one of my clients asks me to cook her favourite spaghetti and meatballs from the Let Lisa cook menu 😋 😍 ☺️

My babies making dinner last night, all by themselves!

They made bacon capsicum and tomato pasta 😋

Was so good, they were so proud of themselves 😍

Hi guys!

Have shared about this many times,
Please be mindful of what you're eating ;-)

Missing seeing all your smiling faces each week!

Food manufacturers are sneaky! You’d think shredded cheese would be just that. But unfortunately like most packaged food, extra ingredients are added in processing to make them appear as perfect as possible. In this case, to keep the shredded cheese from clumping together. I agree that it can be a pain to take the extra few minutes to shred a block of cheese! But, who really wants to eat saw dust?! The price we pay for that little bit of added convenience is eye opening! #realfood #realfoodfam #healthyswaps #healthyswap #wapfkitchen #slowfood #homesteadkitchen #fromscratchkitchen #realfoodingredients #readingfoodlabels #foodlabels #slowingdown #intentionalliving #homedairy #farmhousecheddar #familymilkcow #rawcheese #homesteadlife #homesteading #homesteadliving #homesteadfamily #healthyeating #nutrientdense #growyourownfood #regenerativefarming #regenerativeagriculture #regenerativelivestock #grassfeddairy #creatingsustainableroots #fromscratchfarmstead

Take this as your daily reminder to tell those around you that you love, that you really love them.

We don’t know when death is going to be upon us but it is guaranteed to come at some point.

So don’t hold on to s**t that doesn’t matter,
because tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone.

Don’t live with the regret that you wish you had reached out

You have one life, Love, Cry, and Laugh

And for f***s sake check in on your friends and family because once they’re gone they’re gone!

Vietnam Restaurant in Pennington. . .
Absolutely worth the drive!!!

Food= incredible and the place was jam packed full which says something ☺️

Hey guys!

Quick msg to say I hope you're all not missing me too much, and have found someone else to cook for you?!

I'm absolutely loving being back at Nursing,
Going out into the community helping people!

And you wouldn't guess one of my clients is one of my customers, so it makes it even more special (a meant to be kind of feeling) ☺️

I'm cooking for my kids more than ever, not just getting bbq meat out for Jaryd to cook lol on days when I feel tired.

The kids and I made sushi this arvo, about to dig in now 😋

If you ever doubt showing up matters,⁣
⁣
next time you’re at the basketball game cheering in the bleachers,⁣
⁣
or the dance recital ready to snap photos,⁣
⁣
look at your kid’s reaction when they first spot you.⁣
⁣
Their entire body and face will say, “I’m so happy to see you.”⁣
⁣
Because when you’re there,⁣
showing up for them,⁣
𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘶𝘱.⁣
⁣
Even if you’re late, they’ll only see you made it, running as fast as possible, ensuring you don’t miss one more second.⁣
⁣
And when your eyes connect, 𝘫𝘰𝘺 will fill their face.⁣
⁣
And it doesn’t change.⁣
⁣
When your kids get older, and you show up to see your grandchildren,⁣
⁣
at the basketball game or dance recital,⁣
⁣
not only will your grandkids light up, but so will your son or daughter.⁣
⁣
𝘉𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘪𝘵 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨.⁣
⁣
So, show up even if you’re tired,⁣
even if you don’t have to,⁣
even if you’re busy,⁣
even if you have an excuse,⁣
and even if you know you won’t get recognized for it.⁣
⁣
Because they’ll remember you were there.⁣
⁣
And if you ever doubt it matters⁣
look at your child’s reaction right when they find you.⁣
⁣
Their light—𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘵, 𝘫𝘰𝘺, and 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴—will speak volumes.

X 4 Chicken pad Thai SOLD OUT

Hello everyone,
I have some bitter-sweet news to announce ☺️
I have had an amazing opportunity come about and I'm going to take it.

I will be going back into nursing.
Some of you may not be aware that I'm an Enrolled Nurse and I didn't leave nursing by choice.
I chose not to be vaccinated against covid so I was put on leave without pay, after over 11 years working at Flinders.

My husband and I had a mortgage and 3 kids to feed so I threw myself into the deep end and started Let Lisa cook.

I wasn't sure how long I could keep this business afloat, and if it would be successful or if my food was any good.
I exceeded my own expectations and created amazing food for you all for just over a year.
But I always thought if the right role in Nursing came around I would consider it.
That is where my heart is ❤

I'm so very fortunate to have met so many beautiful people who I now call my friends.
We have had so many laughs and convos standing in my kitchen on a Friday.
I am privileged that you chose me to cook for yourselves and your families.

I will be sad to say goodbye, but excited to start Nursing again 🥰
So this will be my last week of cooking.

My page will remain open just incase things don't work out, so please don't unlike or unfollow.
Please excuse me if I don't reply to all private msgs.

I hope you can find someone else to cook for you as good as me 😉

Writing this with tears in my eyes, but love in my heart,
Lisa x

Some facts about my cooking and how mindful I am of what I cook with ⬇️⬇️⬇️

I use olive oil in my cooking,
Otherwise I use butter.

Stir-frys etc are cooked in either peanut oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil, rarely vegetable oil.

I don't use any pre grated cheese as they have anti caking agents in them which are very harmful.
I grate my own.

I use only pink Himalayan salt in all my meals.

Sugar is added in some meals, but only sparingly, sometimes I use honey.

I don't use anything artificial!
All my sauces are made 100% from scratch.

I use a lot of fresh garlic in everything!

I also have my own vegetable garden and herb garden.
Often my veggies are from there. . . But always my herbs are!

Quality meat is sourced mostly from the butcher.

I buy all my fruits vegetables and salads from Adelaide Fresh.

I don't use white flours to thicken sauces I use rice and tapioca flour.

I use only quality can tomatoes, none with firming agents or food acids.

Lisa ☺️

The dandelion is the only flower that represents the 3 celestial bodies of the sun, moon and stars.
The yellow flower resembles the sun, the puff ball resembles the moon and the dispersing seeds resemble the stars.
The dandelion flower opens to greet the morning and closes in the evening to go to sleep.
Every part of the dandelion is useful: root, leaves, flower. It can be used for food, medicine and dye for colouring.
Up until the 1800s people would pull grass out of their lawns to make room for dandelions and other useful “weeds” like chickweed, malva, and chamomile.
The name dandelion is taken from the French word “dent de lion” meaning lion’s tooth, referring to the coarsely-toothed leaves.
Dandelions have one of the longest flowering seasons of any plant.
Seeds are often carried as many as 5 miles from their origin !

Orders close tomorrow ;-)

You're that tired as Mumma,
the Mumma that can't be bothered deciding what to cook for the 1000th time,
the Mumma who's housework spirals out of control and another "job" just seems unbearable,
the Mumma who is tired of giving their kids air fryer meals on repeat,
The Mumma who wants a break. . .

Perhaps you are tired, busy, stressed, don't know how to cook or don't feel like cooking?

Well that's where I step in, no prepping, cooking or washing up, leave it ALL to me!
