My recipe for the creamiest, most delish pesto.  Put it in a pasta salad (as shown), on your avocado toast, on some crusty bread or just use as a marinade.  It’s so good you will find ways to use it.  It is so simple, you don’t even have to measure it out, just throw together in your blender, magic bullet or food processor.   One bunch of basil   One handful of cashews  Fresh parmigiana cheese   pinch or 3 Fresh garlic- I buy the frozen pods Olive oil maybe 1/4 cup Salt pepper to taste   Blend until creamy.  If you don’t have eno ..read more

Watermelon, Jalapeño, and Feta Arugula Salad

Here’s a great summer salad that has just the right amount of sweetness and kick!  Although every once in a while I get a really spicy jalapeño – which personally I love – but it’s not for everyone.  So, you may need to warn your guests before they dive in. Ingredients: 3 cups watermelon cubed  Arugula 2-3  jalapeños package of sheep feta or I’ve also used goat cheese which works equally well. Red onion sliced  – 1/8 cup – (this is an optional ingredient.  I recommend leaving the slices big so people can push it aside if they don’t want it.) Dressing: Garlic ..read more

The Vanishing Half by New York Best Selling Author Brit Bennett is a beautifully written book that describes the lives of twins Desiree and Stella Vignes growing up in Mallard, Louisiana in the 1950s.   Mallard was a small town resurrected in 1848 by their great-great-great grandfather, a freed slave who reserved the town entirely for black residents with light skin color like himself.  Eventhough Mallard was their legacy, Desiree and Stella Vignes jump on the chance to run away at the young age of 16. While their initial journey may have begun together, Stella’s decisi ..read more

At Home Frappe

Here’s a great, easy recipe for making a delicious tasting frappe at home.  As you can see, I used Starbucks Cold Brew coffee for my frappe, which was great – I recommend you do the same, especially if you are already a Starbucks fan.  I also used Chobani Vanilla Oat milk.  Oat milk is a great substitute for milk and is great if you have nut allergies.  It’s also low in calories, fat, and sugar while being high in both fiber and protein.  At Home Frappe Ingredients: 8 oz coffee  6 oz oat milk or milk of choice 1 -2  oz sweet cream creamer – I used Chobani ..read more
