Having worked at my college's cafe in Pennsylvania, one of the things I loved to cook (and eat) was the Philly Cheesesteaks!

There was just something about the beautiful blend of meat, cheese, and bread that just gets a College Freshmen going. 

That's why in this week's episode of A Spoonful of Soul, in celebration of National Cheesesteak Day (yes that is a thing), I decided to whip up an oh so delicious Philly Cheesesteak Wrap, which is a much healthier version of my favorite college meal. Read through to try it yourself.

Looking to eat healthy without giving up everything? When I first made the shift from a highly-processed diet to more real, whole foods the one thing that I struggled with was not feeling like I could still enjoy my favorite foods.

One of the most common questions I get is, how do you eat healthy with a busy schedule? For me, the answer always comes down to planning and prepping my meals ahead of time. 

Whether that means you're actually cooking every meal is your choice. 

What I've found for myself and my clients is that taking the time out to plan and prepare my meals ahead is a surefire way to set yourself up for healthy eating success. 

This is important because time isn't always on your side and some weeks can be more hectic than others. 

That's why planning ahead has become so important because there are times when you're not going to have a lot of time for meal preparation.

For those times, you can lean heavily into homemade freezer meals, which are meals you prepare ahead of time and store in your freezer for when you don't have much time for meal prep.

Growing up in East Orange, NJ with a mother who loved introducing my young palate to new herbs and spices, I really grew to love international cuisine. From Trinidadian to Bahraini, I've always enjoyed eating food that is infused with flavors from around the world!

Like most people, I'm not trying to spend hours in the kitchen trying to make a dish. 

That's why I've grown to love using powders and pastes in my meals because a little really does go a long way. You can add amazing flavor to any dish without having to spend a ton of money on specialty ingredients or waste time in the kitchen preparing meals that you (or your family) won't eat. 

This is especially important if you're just getting into the habit of meal prep and you're looking to keep things easy, simple and (most importantly) affordable!

If you're new to the kitchen or just looking for an easy dinner recipe, I got the perfect thing for you. In this week's episode of A Spoonful of Soul,...

Having lived right outside of Boston for the past three years, I completely understand why New Englanders love their comfort food during the winter! I don't know about you, but all I want to do during the winter is snuggle under some warm sheets with a pint of Sam Adams in one hand and a Union Square Maple Bacon Donut in the other!

Must be a New England thing... or maybe just what I dream of doing thing?  

At any rate, as the weather has been particularly brutal these past few days, I felt inspired to get into the kitchen to whip up something that would warm me up this winter, and would definitely be healthier than a pint of beer and donut. That's why in this week's episode of A Spoonful of Soul, I whipped up three healthy and delicious, southern-inspired recipes that you will love!

We prepared a Healthy Instant Pot Barbecue Ribs, Southern-Style Collard Greens and Mashed Sweet Potatoes! This main dish and sides are perfect to warm you up this...
