Yo, I’m dying right now and I detect no lies 💯. What do you put on your salad?

It ain’t Taco Tuesday, but these babies are so good, you’re going to want to eat them at least 2x a week.
Looks like chicken, taste like chicken but it’s oyster mushrooms, battered and fried in grape seed oil. They are so good and would fool anyone. I find oyster mushrooms at my local Asian market. They are healthy and delicious !
What’s your favorite taco? I love mushroom and cauliflower tacos 🤤

Now you’re going to want to add this one to the books and make for dinner tonight 😋.
Din din comes together in under 30 minutes and it’s so delish, so easy, and packed full of flavor.

Here I present my take on a popular Kenyan spinach dish called SUKUMA WIKI. It’s typically served with ugali, a cornmeal porridge which is a good blank slate for all of the flavors packed in this spinach dish. SUKUMA WIKI is a vegan dish, as most Kenyan meals don’t revolve around meat. It’s expensive!

You could easily add shrimp, beef, or chicken. Or make another meat entree, but I think it’s good on its own with a side of paratha ( Indian bread, pictured) or traditional chapati (Kenyan bread).

I’ve taken some creative liberty and created this RECIPE
1 pack frozen spinach, squeezed
3 Roma tomatoes
1/2 cup diced onion
2 tsp miso paste
Salt
Pepper
A few dashes of worchestshire sauce
A few dashes of coconut aminos sauce
Trader Joe’s “chikin” seasoning
1/4 cup grape seed oil

Sauté onions until translucent. Add spinach and remaining ingredients (minus the tomatoes, save until the end) . Cook for about 10 minutes and then add tomatoes and cook for another 5. Add more oil if necessary to make a “sauce “

Happy New Year Fam! How is 2021 treating you so far? I know it's been a minute, but if you know me personally, you know my love/hate affair with social media.

But I figured, I'd hop on and share with you guys a wonderful event I'm hosting with Reiki Master
I'm going to throw down in the kitchen and create a wonderful feast of immune building foods + I'll throw on my herbalist hat and represent my other baby with a mini herbal course for immunity. All participants will receive a Reiki session, compliments of

How can you not enjoy the bounty of summer?

My hardest decisions are should I eat watermelon, cherries, plums, or peaches for dinner.

But, here’s a little dinner inspo.

Okra sauté with garden tomatoes, onions, black eye peas and some leftover stewed corn over jasmine rice.

I don’t like to waste food, so this was me combining leftover dishes to make a new one. Dinner under 30 minutes.

I like to submerge myself in the culture of wherever I am visiting by taking a trip to the local market + participate in a cooking class.
I usually have luck finding one on Airbnb.

Trust me this meal was worth the diarrhea I shouldn’t have eaten the raw fruit. Travel tip #1 . Don’t eat raw fruit. But I’m greedy and sometimes I forget my own advice.
Pictured is a mango salad made with best mangoes ever!
Local dish mukimo, which is boiled potatoes with peas, maize, and pumpkin leaf juice that I juiced myself and chapati.

Always talking smack + learning how to make Kenyan chapati.
