Happiness is… go!☀️🤗😂

I spend a lot of time here (in the kitchen)and I’m not complaining (ok maybe sometimes, especially this past year, ha), BUT I’m glad I turned my attitude into one of joy in the kitchen, best decision I consciously made all those years ago.🙏 I spend a lot of time in this spot, creating, mixing, tossing and preparing food to nourish the ones I love.

We had a beautiful dinner out last night with friends (so grateful to do this again), so tonight I’m cooking, and blending up this insane cilantro lime dressing that tastes SO good tossed with this superfood slaw. You won’t even believe it. It’s full on food power in every bite. Delicious! If you want to hold tight on the spice- just do less of the jalapeno. But dang, this is now our go-to slaw of the season! 😎
