👩🏻‍🍳 Chef Tip:

When shopping for eggplant, smaller is better! Look for firm, shiny eggplants that feel heavy for their size, and choose medium or small ones when you can. They're usually more tender, with fewer seeds and less bitterness.

❤️ Personal Note:

In school this week, I’ve been learning what it really means to live with purpose and how to stay connected to the life I want to create.

My one big takeaway? You don’t need a big breakthrough to make meaningful progress. Even something small, like moving your body for 20 minutes, prepping a family meal, or simply being kind to yourself, is worth the celebration.

It’s easy to feel like success has to be all or nothing. But I’m learning that true wellness lives in the gray area, where small wins add up to lasting change.


Looking for something specific? Hit reply, and let me know. I'm always happy to help!

Happy Cooking!
