since when has a doctor wrote you a prescription to lacto-ferment your foods???? I’ll wait lolol
Disclaimer: I am NOT a doctor and am not suggesting to avoid one. But I am on a mission to teach my fellow friends about how to incorporate natural probiotics into their diet through the ancient alchemical adoption of LACTO-FERMENTING your fruits and veggies.

I just finished writing my handbook and have an offering fermenting as we speak 🫜🧠

BENEFITS:
• food preservation // ferments last 6-12mon in fridge
• probiotics // to boost immune response, improve digestion, and heal our gut lining
• unlock a universe of flavor and texture that can be used in nearly every component of a recipe!!

i’ll be offering virtual two part workshops to help you hone in on this simple kitchen experiment that you can implement in your life. If you’re interested in learning more, please comment FEED ME below hehehe 🥕

It’s long walks and Avo Toast for me 🥑
buttered, seared, and topped with beetroot hummus, avocado, a splash of balsamic and oil, sliced peppers, radish, parsley, salt.
🍋
I’ve been city (and island) hopping every 5 days or so for the past few months and make sure to book places with kitchens when I can. Sometimes you have to make due with the equipment provided. Here, the sharpest knife I had all week was a bread knife 😂 fancy avo slices for meee

This week’s lineup ❤️‍🔥 ft. cashew truffle Mac in action.
I grew up on boxed macaroni, so being able to level-up with chickpea pasta, homemade cashew cheese, roasted broccoli AND truffle oil, 10yr old Rachel is screaming “bougieeee” but also “yes queen” 🌱💚

The meal that needs a saxophonist. 🎷
it’s smooth as silk and feels amazing to eat. The light-crunched zucchini noodle and creamy cashew sauceee. I wish I could deliver this straight to your mouths.

Monday’s are for deliveries 🚚 but I’m still reminiscing on last week’s Plant-Based Poke Bowl.🌈
🤤
Swapped the raw tuna and salmon for sesame-tamari-marinated beets and it turned out better than I could have ever imagined!!! It’s hard to tell from the picture, but the beets even create the same striations that fish have, it’s so crazy and so delicious.

I’m also super zoned in during cook sessions and forget to take photos, so here’s the portion I made for myself (not the customer’s containers which display all the ingredients nicely). We do the best with what we have 😌
• macadamia
• mango
• carrots
• brown rice
• beets
• spicy mayo
• cucumbers
• microgreens
• mixed greens

listen, we meal prep on the weekends so when we’re busy little bees, we can throw together a BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich, let the camera have a taste, chow down with gratitude like the herbivores we are, and then get back to business! 👊
I also made a vegan/gf Cornbread, but didn’t snag a photo 🥲

New Menu coming in the am ☕️ Thanks friends 🌱
