Eat for LIFE!




I spent an exciting day on the set in Harlem with Chef Kenny Minor for his new show "Eat For Life with Chef Kenny!" I've never been a terribly unhealthy eater, but I also never gave myself a limit with portions nor any kind of limit with sweets! At my age now, my lack of portion control and love of sweets is finally catching up with me. I have got to gain control of managing my hectic schedule with managing more quick and healthy meals. Chef Kenny showed me how! 

He made a lima and white bean salad, with multi-grain vinaigrette (various mustard seeds, 'cause this girl had NO clue where the actual multi grains came from. lol) ; a wheat crust pizza with avacado sauce, topped with red cabbage, fennel and chorizo; and a BANGIN' smoothie made with a Vitamix blender! It was the perfect, refreshing mix of kale, ice, vanilla soy milk, cinnamon, ginger, mangoes and a green apple. GREEN PERFECTION IN A GLASS! It blended so smoothly, and the Vitamix automatically shut itself off after blending, and it apparently cleans itself too!

Anywho, it was a great day in Harlem, all in the name of healthy cooking and eating!
