    Some of you got on me on my last cooking video for not listing the ingredients, so I made sure to do so this time! I don’t measure, so I can’t give you that, but I hope you got some meal ideas and enjoyed the video.

    Hi Monique, It's so good to see you, darling. You are my Sunday routine😊. Another mouthwatering video. The jackfruit rice seems very interesting. Here in Jamaica, we eat the jackfruit ripe straight from the tree. The bell peppers over the open flames seem very interesting also. I love jackfruit and I love bell peppers in almost all my meals 😊. I must give it a try.
    For some reason, I don't know why this video made me so emotional, especially as I watched the first 5 minutes😢. I guess it took me back to a very dear childhood memory of Sunday cooking with my grandparents who are no longer with us.. bittersweet😢😪
    Great video, sweetie. The chef in you certainly showed up today!👌😊. Thank you for these recipes. Keep safe and warm, until next week. Blessings and love abound you🙏🤍

    • @simmpleenough

      I feel you. Just take baby steps & do what you can 😊 . It took me a couple of years to transition into a healthier lifestyle. I took my time and didn't force anything. For me, easing into healthier habits makes it easier to maintain them long-term. If I jump head first into something new, I might become overwhelmed and want to quit. You'll get to where you want to be. I'm happy my video inspired you.

      You're DEFINITELY not alone!
      It is indeed a process to recondition the mind and body. But it can be done.
      I've known my husband since we were 14. He was always 'big boned'...
      He's an IT field tech so fast food ruled. Until @ 37 a bout of diverticulitis hospitalized him. He decided instead of the 9 meds they prescribed, that he would replace the junk w raw veggies, fresh fruits, lean proteins, & a cooler in the trunk of water & green tea w fruits and that wonderful Insta pot & air fryer!
      We made big enough batches of whatever to put into grabbable containers & pop it into lunchbags. I have a Hotlogic for my office & there's one for the car.
      He's a 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. grinder, too.
      It took two years, but from 420 to a healthy 190/200 AND from 6'2" to 6'4"! Two inches taller because his spine was no longer compressed! Diabetes GONE. Asthma GONE. And all those 4XXXL GONE! Now, it's trails to waterfalls in autumn, the coastal beaches in the summer, museums, all types of walking fun!
      @His mum's passing two of his uncles didn't even recognize him!
      I'm looking forward to trying out the jackfruit in the video. I see it in the farmers market, but never really knew what to do with it or what it was supposed to look like.
