It’s even worse for Latino and Black families, whose rates of nutrition insecurity have spiked to 25% and 30%. In the world’s wealthiest country, this is unconscionable.

Do This Every Day for a Zenful Life


a-moment-of-zen

Hi there my lovelies! Hope you all are doing well and staying safe. Have stopped during your day just to take in your surrounding? It might sound crazy but in our daily machine-like lives, we spend majority of the time running and working like bunch of machines set out everyday to complete day-to-day jobs. However, if we just take a moment to just take in our surrounding, we can all create fulfilling lives for ours. My friends! We just need to do one thing everyday to leave a healthier life: breathe.

1_4HoWolW_J6jSona6mVGn1g

I have mentioned in my previous post, how deep breathing helped me acknowledge my anxiety and let me become more relaxed and grounded. Breathing is a very powerful mechanism that will help us find zen in our life. So, let us all take the initiative to give ourselves room to breathe, take deep breathe every day. Take your time just to take deep breathe during each of the following situation:

SimilarWeeklyGodwit-size_restricted

  1. When you wake up in the morning. It will kick start your day fresh and ready to thrive.
  2. When you are tensed take a deep breathe. It will relax you.
  3. When you are moving too fast and unable to focus, breathe. It will bring you back to the present.
  4. When you are angry, take a deep breathe. It will help you become grounded and prevent you from anything that you will regret later.
  5. When you are with your loved ones, take a deep breathe. I will help you take in the moment and capture it in our heart.

zen

My dear lovelies! Life is fleeting by fast. Let us all take deep moments to capture the various moments in life. After all, moments don’t last long.

I would love to hear your daily ritual to find zen in your life. What works for you or doesn’t work for you? Please share.

  5. Five cups of Jasmine or Basmati rice (you can also try gluten free brown rice. I often substitute with organic gluten free brown rice for a healthier touch).
  6. Eight cups of water (you can substitute with four cups of water and four cups of low sodium chicken broth, or just 8 cups of low sodium chicken broths for extra flavor. It’s still healthy).
  7. Three Tbsp of canola oil (both canola oil and avocado oils are great healthy options).

You can also add cayenne peppers, hot pepper flakes to an extra kick to the dish. You can also add additional garlic and ginger powders (1 tsp of each) to extra flavor.
  6. Add chicken breast and saute until cooked.
  7. Add the rice and saute for few minutes. Stir for about 5 minutes.
  8. Add chopped thai pepper if needed, and add water (or broth). And cover in cook in high heat until the liquid starts boiling. Then lower the heat to low to medium heat and cook until the rice is cooked and the liquid evaporates.
  9. Add back the bell peppers and stir for few minutes.
  10. Add cilantro and green onion to garnish before taking off from heat.
  11. Serve and enjoy.

My dear lovelies! Hope you enjoy this healthy dish. I remember that when I was one a strict diet last year, this is one dish that I my stomach could handle (of course there was no peppers or any spice).

Taylor Gourmet in Washington D.C.


IMG_20150825_125631[1]

Hi There! Hope you are having a start of a wonderful weekend.Today,  I will talk about my experience eating from a menu from Taylor Gourmeta Philadelphian gourmet fast food type eatery located in Washington D.C. I have not have the pleasure of personally eating eating at one of their locations but I have ordered online from them few times.

History: Before I describe my experience about their food, let me give some about their background. This unique place was started by two Philadelphian buddies in 2008 grew up on what they called “the flavors of Philadephia’s 9th street Italian market and hoagies served by countless mom and pops shops throughout the city”. They brought their unique Philly hoagies and salamies to the H Street NE corridors and few more locations for us to enjoy. Their famous clients include none other than our current First Family.

rissotto2

FoodI have had the pleasure of ordering online from them few times with my co-workers. My very first experience was their famous Ben Franklin Hoagies. It has a choice of breaded or grilled chicken with marinara sauce and sharp provolone cheese. What can I say about a their hoagies. It’s humongous, or at least for me. It’s a 16″ hoagie. I had to cut the hoagie into half and leave the other half for later. It’s great. My friend, who is a native Philadelphian said that Taylor had the closest authentic Philly Cheese steak that she has ever tasted outside of Philadelphia and that in itself is a huge accomplishment in my sense.  Now for their Rissotto Balls. These are fried mozzarella balls served in marinara sauce. The first time I tasted this appetizers, I fell in love them and every time I order from this place I have to have my rissotto balls in my order. These mouth watering fried cheese has the perfect amount of cheese with a crunchy outside. Now, if you in a food for salad there are plenty of options for you here. I for one love their Love Park Salad with arugula, pastina, cherry tomatoes, sweet basil pesto, fresh mozzarella, and Taylor vinaigrette. I love adding grilled chicken to my salad for extra protein. This mouth watering salad has the perfect combination of favors to play a perfect harmony with my taste buds.

Locations: Taylor Gourmet has locations in H Street, NE, between 4th and 5th Street K St NW, in Dupont Circle, and in Penn Quarter in Washington DC. It’s Virginia location include Fairfax and Ballston, Arlington locations. It’s also located in Bethesda neighborhood of Maryland.

Taylor, started by two Philly buddies brings in unique Philly tastes to the Washington Metro area. If you live near any of their locations don’t forget to check them out or order online. Hope you enjoy reading this blog as much I have enjoyed writing it.

Santa Hat Cheesecake Bites


santahat

Today being Christmas Eve I wanted to share this special treat with you that I hope you will enjoy. The recipe yields 25 bite size treats.

Ingredients for Chocolate Crumb Crusts:

  • 1  Stick Butter (I used I believe It’s Not Butter for healthy substitution)
  • 1-1/2 cup (about 45 wafers, crushed) reduced fat vanilla wafer crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons Splenda
  • 6 tablespoons Hershey’s Unsweetened Cocoa

Cheesecake Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter (I used I believe It’s Not Butter for healthy substitution)
  • 2 (8 oz) pkg fat free cream cheese, softened
  • 1/8 cup + 1 Tbsp Splenda
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup fat free half & half, divided

Topping Ingredients:

  • 25 fairly small, fresh strawberries (or more if cutting more squares)
  • 1 (16 oz) pkg fat free cool whip

Instructions for Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line an 8 by 8-inch baking dish with two large sheets of tinfoil (one going horizontally and one over the top of the other vertically. Make sure your sheets are long enough that you’ll have an overhang of foil over the edges of the pan. Also, be sure to mold it well to the pan).
  2. Brush foil with 1/2 Tbsp melted butter.
  3. In a mixing bowl, using a fork blend together crushed wafers and  melted butter until mixture is well combined and evenly moistened.
  4. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish (the bottom of a flat measuring cup or glass works well for pressing crust), set aside.

Instructions for Cheese Cake:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, using an electric hand mixer set on medium-low speed, blend together cream cheese and splenda until mixture is smooth, about 30 seconds.
  2. Add in eggs and vanilla extract and mix until well blended. In a separate microwave safe bowl, heat white chocolate chips with 1/3 cup half & half on 50% power in 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval until melted and smooth. Pour melted white chocolate mixture into cream cheese mixture and blend on low speed until combined. Tap bowl against counter top about 30 times to release some of the air bubbles then pour mixture over prepared crust in baking dish.
  3. Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes then turn oven off and without opening oven door allow cheesecake to rest in warm oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes, then cover with plastic wrap and freeze for 3 hours or refrigerate for 6 hours.
  4. Once cheesecake is fully chilled and set, remove from freezer or refrigerator and lift cheesecake out of pan using the foil overhang. Cut cheesecake into squares (I’d recommend cutting them just a bit larger the the width of your strawberries. Also it’s nice to keep some clean paper towels close by to clean your knife while cutting squares).

Instructions for Topping:

  1. To assemble: cut a flat top off of each strawberry and lay flat side down over top of cheesecake. Fill a pastry bag (or Ziploc bag and cut a small tip of corner) with fat free whipped cream and pipe around strawberry then finish with a small amount over the top of the “hat”. Serve immediately (for do ahead- you can make cheesecake the day before then assemble within an hour of serving the following day). Store in refrigerator in an airtight container.
  2. I processed the wafer in a food processor but if you don’t have one you can place them in a large Ziploc bag, seal bag and finely crush with a rolling pin .
  3. Recipe Source: cheesecake bites – I adopted the recipe from Cooking Classy, Santa hat inspired by – daisy’s world who adapted it from Erica’s Sweet Tooth.

Hope you have a wonderful and peaceful holiday with your loved ones. Please check out  and like my Facebook Page. Beside link to my blogs, I also share links from Vogue, Style, Elle, Health Magazine, Women’s Health, American Heart Association and much more. Happy Reading.
