As most families right now, De Laurentiis has been sheltering in place with her daughter, Jade, 12, the two staying in together to stay safe.
While theyve been stuck inside, what else is there to do with a pre-teen besides your fair share of TikTok videos. (This dynamic duo also bakes, cooks, and engages in yoga and sunbathing, as per De Laurentiis Instagram account photos.)
Jade had her mom appear with her in a few TikToks and Giada looks like the ultimate TikToking pro. Heres the very with-it moms TikTok collection.

De Laurentiis and her boyfriend, Shane Farley, have been spending a great deal of time, including most holidays, together, and Independence Day should be no different. The two have been together since 2015.
This past Valentines Day, a lifetime ago before coronavirus (COVID-19) changed life forever, Farley prepared a romantic dinner for his girlfriend. In a conversation with People before the big unveil, she couldnt have been more appreciative and curious of what it could be.

I lovecheesy holidayslike this and I love the idea of getting into the spirit of it, De Laurentiis said. The cheesier the better. Its lighthearted and fun, and it can be very whimsical as well, so I have fun with it.
Before the dinner, the Roman-born De Laurentiis did her very best to let him know of her preferences and small details. It must have been difficult for her to be cooked for instead of in charge of the feast.
Im keeping my fingers crossed. Ive dropped a lot of hints, continued De Laurentiis. I dont care about the quality of the actual dinner. He doesnt cook for me often, but I think that is themost romantic thingthat hes ever done.
De Laurentiis light and easy salad is basically a one-bowl event.
To start, De Laurentiis has home cooks preparing their own quick pickled cucumbers. But if it saves you time, just buy store-bought pickles, chop them, and save them for later to sprinkle on top of your completed salad.
In a large bowl, De Laurentiis calls for combining one tablespoon champagne vinegar; one teaspoon whole-grain mustard; and three tablespoons extra virgin olive oil until its well combined.
Then, the fun starts. The television personalitys recipe calls for mixing two chopped heads of radicchio; one chopped curly endive or frisee; one and a half cup of halved red grapes; one cup of blueberries; a half cup of chopped roasted and salted pistachios; and a half cup of crumbled gorgonzola picante. Sprinkle your chopped pickles on top and thats De Laurentiis busy cooks masterpiece!
The salad is a sensory celebration of sweet, sour, and spicy flavors in each bite, much like a great fireworks show!
