Teresa Giudice's daughters have adopted her love of cooking. The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom of four has been praised by her daughters for her cooking, and now she is passing on the skills and her recipes to her second youngest daughter, Milania Giudice.
Milania took to TikTok account on Jan. 18 where she posted a video of her in Teresa's New Jersey kitchen (as seen in the video above), helping her mom make lasagna. In the introduction of the video, Milania revealed that she was about to go snowboarding for the first time when she found Teresa in the kitchen, making lasagna for dinner. So, she volunteered to help her. The mother-daughter duo then assembled the lasagna together, layering red sauce, lasagna noodles, shredded cheese, three kinds of ground meat, and one very secret ingredient.
Teresa's secret ingredient for her lasagna? Hard-boiled eggs. "I put hard-boiled eggs in it because that's how my mom made it growing up and I loved it," Teresa explained. "It's a great source of protein."
Watch Milania Giudice's "old troll" pizza cooking video with Audriana
Milania and Teresa returned to the kitchen in another video posted to TikTok on Wednesday, Jan. 22, this time along with Teresa's youngest daughter, Audriana Giudice. But this time, Teresa and Audriana were helping Milania in the kitchen as she whipped up "old troll" pizza, referring to her RHONJ Season 3 demand for pizza from her dad, Joe Giudice.
Milania and her "sous chefs" first made their pizza dough from scratch, with Audriana helping knead the dough before she broke a nail (luckily Teresa was able to finish kneading and help save the day). After cooking the toppings, the trio then rolled out the dough for their own individual pizzas, before putting leftover Sunday sauce, cheese, and different toppings on them.
After putting their pizzas in the oven and testing all three kinds, Milania confirmed that Teresa's pizza tasted the best, even though Audriana's looked the best. "Made with love," Milania captioned the post.
Teresa Giudice reveals plans for opening up a restaurant with her daughters
Teresa is very comfortable in the kitchen and has been very open about how she wants to share her food with the masses, outside of her family. After opening up to The Daily Dish in October about her tentative plans to open a restaurant in New Jersey, Teresa appeared on the podcast, All About TRH on Dec. 31 where she talked, in detail, about wanting to open a restaurant.
Teresa said that she is currently in the "negotiation" process to open a restaurant with a "Mediterranean" theme that would combine her love of Greece with her Italian roots. "I love Greece," she said. "So it's going to be fun when you walk in."
She continued, noting that her husband, Luis "Louie" Ruelas, and his son, Louie Jr. would help out with the business, in addition to her two eldest daughters, Gia and Gabriella Giudice. "Gia would help also. We get along so good," she added. "Maybe the other girls would help also and little Louie. So me and the kids, mostly, yeah."
