I wanted to show you one of my favorite dinner plates that is so quick and easy to make. For this recipe I used a green bell pepper, half an onion, broccoli, six baby carrots, but you can really use any vegetables that are in your fridge. Asparagus or zucchini would also be really good in this dish. I start by making brown rice, which is just a preference you can always use any rice you like. Then I throw the broccoli into a pan with about three table spoons of water. I let that cook for about 5 minutes. . Mean while I throw my sliced vegetable's into a bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and dashes of theses spices: salt, paprika, cayenne, chili powder, garlic powder, and cumin. I also add the juice of half a lime and two shakes of soy sauce. I add the veggies and spices to the pan of broccoli and cook this for about 5 minutes. I consistently mix it so all the veggies are coated in the spices. Then I plate it up on top of the rice. I eat this dinner plate without me...

This is my favorite recipe for banana bread I hope you like it!    Here are the ingredients you will need: 1 1/2 cups of flour 1/2 teaspoon of salt 1 teaspoon of baking soda 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla 2 eggs 3/4 cups of sugar 3 or 4 bananas 1/2 cup of butter handful of chocolate chips To put it all together start by mixing the butter, sugar and eggs together in a bowl.  For this recipe I like to use light butter .  Next add in bananas, salt and baking soda and mix again.  I now place a strainer over the bowl and add in my organic flour which I feel make a big difference in the bread. I use the strainer to sift the flour into the mixture. I add the vanilla and handful of chocolate chips and mix once more before moving the mixture to my loaf pan.  Last bake for 70 minutes at 350 degrees and enjoy!!!

Hey guys I wanted to show you my obsession lately when I'm craving for something sweet. It really kills the craving and fills me up too.  Okay so what your looking at here is a whole wheat bagel thin with peanut butter.  Next I sprinkle chia seeds on top. (rich in fiber, iron, omega-3, antioxidants, and calcium) I top it off with half a banana sliced up thin and I drizzle some honey on top.  And last but not least I dust it with cinnamon.  Try this out the next time you are craving something sweet and you wont be sorry.  

Hello again, For this first post I thought I would start out with something easy, simple, and affordable.  I for one am a coffee drinker. I don't only drink it for its caffeine benefits, but also because I just like the way it tastes. I enjoy  hot coffee usually but sometimes I like to go for iced coffee. So this is my at home iced coffee and I'm going to tell you how I make it.  There are two methods I use to get my perfect iced coffee.  Option 1: I purchase the Starbucks medium roast iced coffee that is unsweetened which is sold at just about every grocery store.  Then I our about 2 cups into a pitcher. I add to this a splash of cashew milk (you can add any milk).  Next because I don't want to feel guilty about drinking this I try to make it as healthy as possible but I still like my coffee sweet. So I boil 1/4 of a cup of water. when it is hot I add 2 table spoons of sugar and 2 table spoons of vanilla powdered creamer.  The re...

Welcome to my blog! My name is Monique, I am 24 and I just graduated college. I am currently embarking on a health journey which includes me changing the way I eat. I am not a professional cook or a nutritionist  but I am trying to make changes in my life to be healthy and I would like to share the food portion of it with you. I know sometimes I feel lost in the kitchen or grocery store with no idea what to cook, the first thing I do is get inspiration from Pinterest. I decided to share some of the things I make, in hopes to help inspire some of you. If you like simple food and are interested in pictures and recipes please stick around.  My first post will be coming soon.
