The Best Miso Soup and Wonton Crisps Recipe + Video

posted in: Recipes, Sides, Soup | 0

Miso soup is a favorite in my house. Right after she celebrated her 4th birthday, our daughter fell in love with Asian food. A restaurant in our neighborhood still offers old school service.

It’s been a while since I’ve shared my bio. So It’s been a while since I’ve shared my bio. So today feels like a good day to do that.⁠ ⁠ But before I do anything—— I have to say thank you so much for all of the love and support. 2K followers is a beautiful milestone! ⁠ ⁠ So here goes:⁠ ⁠ My name is LA. LA like Los Angeles. I’m from the Bronx but I can be a little Hollywood 🤣. My full nickname is LA Sunshine. My favorite plant-based snack is tortilla chips and hummus but I will never give up Twizzlers. 😂⁠ ⁠ I am a plant-based advocate who encourages people to add more plants to their plate. 🌿⁠ ⁠ In 2017, I suffered greatly from aches and pains due to inflammation. 😣 I found that many of the foods that I enjoyed were at the center of the problem. Determined to feel better I began eating mostly plants and moved away from animal products. ⁠ ⁠ I met so many #vegans and #vegetarians who were kind enough to help me get started. ☺️⁠ ⁠ I leaned into research, and took courses in whole foods plant-based nutrition. The result? Less pain and more energy. 🥳⁠ ⁠ Understanding that food and knowledge were great weapons in the war against a variety of diseases, Black Girls Eat was created to build a community for the plant-based curious. 🥑⁠ ⁠ I ❤️ helping Black Women and families make healthier food choices. The goal is to help people eat well, feel well and live well.⁠ ⁠ Here are a few ways to stay connected:⁠ ⁠ 🌿Visit www.blackgirlseat.com to begin going from plant curious to plant focused.⁠ ⁠ 📌Sign up for the Introduction to Plant-Based Nutrition class⁠ ⁠ 🛒Shop at The Black Girls Eat Online Shop.⁠ ⁠ 🎧Listen to The Black Girls Eat Podcast- available on all platforms.⁠ ⁠ Share this post with someone who needs this message.

Sunday Glory- These are fresh greens from the gard Sunday Glory- These are fresh greens from the garden. Radishes too. Proof that if you pour love and intention into something it will flourish.⁠ ⁠ Enjoying the quiet time in the garden with hubby. Making new memories and remembering my dad.⁠ ⁠ He signed up right out of high school. I used to love hearing all about how he hung upside down from helicopters eating fresh pineapple before Hawaii became what it is today. ⁠ ⁠ That was before the Vietnam War started. He shared so much about what he saw there but I know that he kept so much to himself. He came home with a Purple Heart and walked through a room like a soft wind. Sometimes we called him Cool Breeze. ⁠ ⁠ Thank you to the brave men and women both living and gone who wore the uniform to make it possible for us to pursue our goals and live out our wildest dreams. 🇺🇸⁠ ⁠
Y'all remember when I used to make waffle batter w Y'all remember when I used to make waffle batter with a box of powder and some water? Whew! That seems like forever ago. 🙄⁠ ⁠ I was too scared to make my own waffle mix. I grew up with waffles in the freezer. When I first bought a waffle maker, I was still using powder mixes to create the batter. ⁠ ⁠ This plant based journey has given me confidence in many areas. Making stuff from "scratch" is one of them. I used to be intimidated but now I'm excited. It feels great to add ingredients to a bowl and make magic for the family.⁠ ⁠ You don't have to be a professional chef to make a damn good home made Belgian style waffle. Feel free to swap the diary for non-dairy products. Visit the link in the bio or visit www.blackgirlseat.com to learn how and let's all step up our Brunch game! 💚🥬🥑
