Today in Harlem Buffalo Cauliflower w/ a Greek yogurt based “Ranch” dressing. I think I cut approx 800 florets of Cauliflower for 200 ppl .

It’s so worth it though to see ppl love something that’s new to them! Once you make buffalo sauce you can put it on everything. Cauliflower + Roasted Chickpeas are two of my favorite canvases.

To get a nice batter I mix whole wheat flour, water, almond milk, paprika, garlic, cumin. I dip in the batter and bake at 375 for 30 min. Bring it back out coat with sauce and back in for 5-7 minutes. Super duper yummy for Football season or any game day snack.

Moviendo Las Caderas. Good health isn’t a destination it’s a journey and each leg looks different. Even when doing the same things, you will be bringing a different you.

Peaceful run, 100 squats, planks and bench push-ups. I was giving thanks for this day, many good vibes + silent prayers going up for Florida and all of those affected by Hurricane Irma.

Back to a full schedule of teaching and engagements means being extra sure I’m getting all my nutrients and fuel to be and do all the things my community needs of me.

One of my staple fave big breakfasts. Booked organic cage free spiced eggs (turmeric paprika black pepper sea salt). @hempsworthfarm cast iron mini heirloom tomatoes w/ lots of garlic + parsley. Sautéed spinach and a truffled avocado toast on sprouted 12 grain. Paired w/ a big green juice (kale, spinach, chorella, cucumber, chard, Ginger, lemon).

Let’s step into fall claiming our glow, best health + selves! …..

Back home means back to eating predominantly Whole Foods + preparing them. Although I’m always a little tired after day 1 back from a trip I like to restock right away so I don’t go down the seamless slope.

No need to wait till Monday for a “fresh” start everyday is a fresh start if you want it. If I have access to a kitchen I’m cooking because just like a shower it’s something you should do daily when home (of course there’s exceptions but I like to make it the rule rather than exception)

And then I went through 3 sheet trays of this combo today @fortunesociety back in NYC which means right back at it with my community ✌.

Today I made my own low sodium old bay seasoning using items like celery seed, mustard powder, smoked and sweet paprika, black pepper, ginger. Then corn, broccoli, onions, green beans, potatoes got tossed in the seasoning w/ evoo. You could easily add your own vegetarian or turkey sausage for at home foil packs.

I also blanched the broccoli + greenbeans seperately then tossed in so they retained their crunch and color. It’s been a while since I had to pan out several trays for one demo! Thanks for the veggie love Harlem!!

Baba Ganoush. Smokey Charred Eggplant Dip. Today’s dish for 200 @fortunesociety . Like the cousin of Hummus, I gave Harlem one of my favorites variations and use of eggplant.

Charred eggplant is blended with EVOO,
Garlic, lemon, cumin, sea salt, paprika, Greek yogurt, crushed red pepper and I like to add some fresh herbs like mint + grilled lemons.

For many it was their first time having this dish and I’m glad they enjoy it as much as I do. .

Those CBDs tho. Focus on Hemp Paste. The thing that makes this product - Hemp Paste - superior to CBD oils/extracts you can find in the market is the extraction or cooking process. Other products use ethanol, butane, olive oil, etc. to extract the CBD from the plant and concentrate it for consumption. Aside from being kind of gross, you lose a lot of the good stuff that stays with the extraction medium, kill some important phytonutrients, and you also concentrate other aspects of the plant, such as THC (which raises the THC content to a level that makes the product illegal in our state and most others unless you have a medicinal license).

My Nutra actually cooks the plant at a LOW temperature for 11+ hours to access the CBD. The strain they use is low in THC (about .24%) which is why they can technically call it hemp (hemp is the marijuana plant with a THC concentration of less than 3%). The CBD comes in between 18-24%. Plus, they keep the whole plant in the end product. It’s a “paste” with all of the pulp and therefore all of the other good aspects of the plant, such as the terpenes, which have been shown to contribute to the positive effects of CBD. Hemp paste has 45% more CBD and 600% more terpenes than oil. It just makes sense to consume the whole plant rather than the byproduct of an unnatural extraction.
