A Dr. Martin Luther King Favorite!

Published on | in Uncategorized By
0 Comments

So, who knew Dr. Kings favorite dessert was Pecan Pie.  First off, I have heard of Pecan Pie, but, I have never had it or attempted to make it. When I saw some of the recipes, I just wanted to find a way to not use corn syrup.  So I played around with Agave, but it wasn’t strong enough so I went to Maple Syrup.  Not maple flavored… but seriously, organic natural maple syrup. When I tell you.. it worked!!!  It tastes amazing.

Just check out the recipe here.

P.S. When you make it.. just remember to snap a pic and tag me in it! #CookingwithQue 🙂

Love you to Life!

 

 

 

The Story behind the Vegan Mac and Cheese

Published on | in Uncategorized By

Sooo I know that the holidays are approaching and everyone has Mac and Cheese on their tables. It’s a dish that is loved by all, but served as a side or a main course depending on your culture.

Mac and Cheese in our family was a dish that my Momma (RIH…my Grandma..but I call her Momma) made with all of the love in Heaven & Earth!  It was so creamy and gooey, and she used like six different cheeses. If Momma was cooking what you gotta know is that everyone was pulling up.  The whole family! Okay!

So when I found out I was allergic to dairy, and went vegan my first thought was omggggg… What about Momma’s Mac and Cheese!!!! I was devastated! What was I gonna eat?

My brain needed a replacement, so I turned in to a Mac n Cheese scientist to try to “attempt” to make my Momma’s version..VEGAN!  I TRIED SOO MANY DIFFERENT RECIPES… AND I WAS APPALLED!  The flavors weren’t hitting like Mommas. So then I went back to the drawing board and looked for vegan cheeses that would

  1. Melt
  2. Not Contain Nuts
  3. What could make it creamy

And this is what I came up with.. and it’s straight… FIRE!

So… HERE. TRY THIS AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

I love y’all to life!

For example:

  2. You have lights
  3. You can breathe
  4. You can shower
  5. You can Brush your Teeth
  6. Pancakes?  Yes you can make them lol (here’s a recipe)

We also came up with a plan, to save everyone from their Quarantine Boredom… Enjoyyyyyyy life!  Your Family! and Stay Positive!

Now…we all need order so I figured we could have things to do daily, that will keep us in good health, and positive! (more…)

Garlic can Improve your Life

Garlic: Life Changing

I love garlic with my whole heart, but sometimes I think people think I just eat it because of that.  Listen Saints and Aint's ....I'm gonna tell you some quick benefits of garlic that will change your outlook of it.  Some people won't eat it because, it makes their breath smell... well, I just want you to pack mints because you're gonna ask for extra after this, and since we are chatting ... I may as well give you a garlic recipe. ( Shout out to the persistent family member that forced me to get better and put it on the site, I really love your face)

1. Hair loss issues / Dandruff ?
Garlic has high levels of allicin, which is a surfer.. similar to what is found in onions, but it's used to treat hair loss, and assist with ridding yourself of dandruff.  You can rub slices on your scalp squeezing as you go, or you can infuse your favorite oil and massage it onto your scalp

2. Acne?
Yep it can help there too, it's a natural way to heal blemishes, and rub a slice on a pimple for an all natural topical treatment, it's antioxidants kills bacteria (whoop whoop)

3. Colds (preventative, and treatments for colds)
You hear it!  It's loaded with antioxidants you can steep garlic in water, to make a garlic tea (I know, just add agave to make it taste better.. but look do you want to feel better or nah?). Eating a daily dose of garlic boosts your immune system!

Late Lent Starters?

Published on | in Uncategorized By

You ever get so busy that you know you are supposed to be doing something, but you can’t remember what?

How did I forget Lent was here.  What’s even worse, I didn’t have a thought about giving anything up. Like literally.  I hear and see everyone talk about, I’m giving up sweets, drinking, eating...blah blah blah.

I think, it’s almost become so commercial, it’s like a New Years Resolution.  Remember that? The thing that is promised to do… but never lives past like the last day of January! Smh.

Lent is supposed to be a journey, sacrificial, its to represent the time Jesus was in the wilderness preparing for his ministry work.  

And I. Forgot.  

#InsertPalmToFaceEmojiHere  smh.

So, I am not going to beat myself up.  I’m going to deal with it, and face it head on.  

What I plan on giving up for the next 40 days, and hopefully it starts a new habit……

WORRY

I’m giving up worrying.  It’s not healthy for you.  It makes you sick, mentally and physically.  It’s a waste of time, and God doesn’t make mistakes!  PERIOD!

So goodbye worry!  I don’t need you. Everything is going to be alright in it’s time

What did you give up for Lent?

Desserts – A healthier take on the Desserts you feed Yourself & Your Family!

Ok....

I tried not to give everyone the business on this topic, but the truth is.... IT'S TIME FOR CHANGE!

We need to change the thought process on desserts!

After dinner you think desserts are cakes, cookies, pies, pastries all that.  In my mind when I see it, I know we think that way because of the history,  because of those who came before us.  Desserts for holidays were pies, and cobblers.  Sweets.  High Fructose Corn Syrup. Sugars. All sugar everything.

We had so much fun in our 20 Min Meal Class! The recipes were nice and easy, but the taste was out of this world! We sampled foods from Breakfast to Dinner but we decided to eat backwards! So we had dinner first and breakfast ended up being the best dessert.. I mean treat ever!!

Our first course was Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos, literally from Jesus! These tacos have just the right spice to wake you up from food boredom! They are filled with dark leafy greens, topped with perfectly baked Cauliflower bathed in Buffalo Sauce from Sweet Baby Rays, and Franks Buffalo Sauce and drizzled with fresh Guacamole Salsa!
