A few of my girlfriends and I decided to take advantage of Black Owned Restaurant week happening in Harlem. This is similar to the restaurant week that happens in big cities all over the country. In which certain restaurants offer a prefix menu for a set price. Black Owned Restaurant Week offers the same deal, but you get to support Black Owned Business. The Edge was one of the restaurants participating and I must admit that a 3-course meal for $30 is hard to turn down! Check out the link here to find other restaurants that are participating.

5ish Ingredient Chicken

I LOVE cooking but hate spending hours upon hours in the kitchen. Whenever I am able to make quick meals that have loads of flavor, and minimal dishes I get too excited! This recipe uses ingredients that are simple to find if you don’t already own them. Since I am such a lover of 1 pan dishes my Pinterest board usually has a few of these 1 pan dishes that gives me inspiration to the meals I create.

The Tri- State area was in a frenzy Monday night preparing for Blizzard Stella. I already knew the grocery store was going to be pure mayhem. Luckily I was able to order all my groceries off food kick. Which is a great delivery service for groceries, you get 30 days free and then after your 30 days you just pay $3.99 for your delivery. This is very convenient in situations where you want nothing to do with the grocery store. Since I had a strong feeling that I would be snowed in the next day. I knew there was nothing better than some comforting food.

Meal Prep 101

March 5, 2017

Whoever said Sunday’s are for relaxing must not meal prep.

My Sunday’s mostly consist of Church, Trader Joe’s, and cooking for the week. Before I blink it’s time to get ready for work. I’m just waiting for the time we have 3 day weekends all the time. What keeps me in check when it comes to eating healthy is my meal prepping.
