PF Chang’s Chicken Lettuce Wraps

HEYOOO I am back with another amazing recipe!

My mom makes these all the time, and let me just tell you they are FIRE. No carbs, healthy, but so yummy. If you have had them at PF Changs you know how amazing they are. These are so great to just store in your fridge all week, so my advice is to double this recipe always!

Ingredients 

  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 package of mushrooms (Whichever kind is your favorite, I used shiitake mushrooms)
  • 1 lb ground chicken (I buy mine at Aldi and it is $5)
  • 1 red onion (can use any color onion)
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tbsp minced ginger (I buy ginger, and put it in the freezer to save for later)
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 tsp sriracha
  • 1 tbsp vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 can water chestnuts (I can never find this in the grocery store, but adds a great crunch)
  • 4 green onions
  • 1 head romaine or Boston leaf lettuce 

Optional

  • ½ cup sliced carrots
  • Corn starch
  • Sesame seeds

Spices

  • Salt
  • Garlic Powder

Directions

  1. Add your ground chicken to a pan and cook on medium until fully cooked. (cook for 5-6 minutes) Add salt, garlic powder, and just about any other seasoning you like to the chicken.
  2. Next add your chopped mushrooms, chopped garlic, chopped water chestnuts, chopped carrots, and chopped red onions to another pan. Cook for about 8-10 minutes.
  3. I like to take all of the sauteed veggies and set them aside in a bowl. In the same pan add your sesame oil, garlic, minced ginger, soy sauce, sriracha, vinegar, and honey into the pan. You will want this on medium-high heat as you want this to bubble or become thick. Sometimes I will add some cornstarch or flour to make the sauce a little bit thicker. Most of the time I also double the sauce recipe, because your girl loves the sauce. 
  4. Once the sauce consistency is to your liking, add the ground chicken and your sauteed veggies into one pan. Top this off with your green onions and sesame seeds and enjoy!

Emily Mariko’s Salmon Bowls

Hello friends!!!

I wanted to share with you a staple meal that I make way too much. If you know me you know I love salmon. Now I know what you’re thinking, “Salmon is so expensive.” Yes, salmon can be expensive if you buy it at whole foods or elsewhere. I am a proud Aldi shopper!! I buy huge fillets which usually cost me $20. I cut it up and stored it in the freezer for later. Just a little Justice hack for you. Anyways I want to share my favorite salmon bowl, and my mouth is watering as we speak!! Emily makes her bowls with rice, but if you are trying to be conscious of your grains you can always use cauliflower rice instead. 

Ingredients 

  • Salmon
  • Rice
  • Veggies (I use the frozen bag mix with green beans, carrots and whatever veggies you want)
  • Honey
  • Garlic
  • Packet of seaweed

Sauce

Now I make two different sauces. One is how Emily makes it. (With mayo) Or you can make it with Greek yogurt, your choice!

Mayo sauce

  • 1 Tablespoon of sriracha
  • 2 Tablespoons of mayo
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic
  • 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon of water

Greek yogurt sauce

  • 3 tablespoons of plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon of sriracha 
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic
  • 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon of water

Directions Oven

  • Add your honey and garlic and apply on top of your salmon
  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and cook your salmon for 8-10 minutes (depending on how thick your salmon is)
  • While the salmon is being cooked make your rice and sauteed veggies 

Directions Air Fryer

  • Add your honey and garlic and apply on top of your salmon
  • Air Fry your salmon for 7 minutes at 400 degrees
  • While the salmon is being cooked make your rice and sauteed veggies 

Sauce

  • Mix all your ingredients in a small little bowl. You need to make sure you add a small amount of water to this sauce, or else the sauce will be too thick.

Add ons

  • Avocado 
  • sesame seeds
  • Soy Sauce

Once all your food is cooked and prepared you can add everything to a bowl, mix it up or make it look pretty however you would like to eat it. The best part of the meal is adding the small seaweed bites. I was disgusted by this before I tried it, but trust me it is a game-changer. It tastes just like sushi but better. You can buy the little seaweed packets at Kroger or public and they are $1.00 a pack. Enjoy!!! Let me know if you love this recipe.

Devotional: If We Only Knew

Hello friends!!

I am back with another lil devotional/ encouraging Jesus message. I have been reading this devotional called Embraced by Lysa TerKeurst. It is a book full of devotionals and let me just tell you today’s devotion was too good not to share. TOO GOOD friends. I also have been so incredibly busy in the last 5 days that I have not sat down and done my devotional. I’m like dang I miss my special time with Jesus. I just wanted to share that, because if that’s you and you haven’t spent time with Jesus in a while let me reassure you it is okay. We all get busy, but I can promise you that time with Jesus can bring you so much peace and happiness. 

I always think of those “perfect Christians” and I am like oh my gosh they must do their devotional every day and go to church everyday Sunday… right? Well, they might. Plus there are no perfect Christians. I want to remind you that every relationship with Jesus might look different. Some people may not like big churches, small groups, worship, intimate churches, or even church at all. That does not mean they are not Christian. If you feel like the best way to feel close to God is going on a hike or even just painting while you listen to worship music, I am rooting you on. 

Anyways here is my prayer for you guys: May you catch even the slightest glimpse of the tender mercy of our Lord Jesus. For one drop of the Lord’s mercy is better than an ocean of the world’s comfort.

My devotion was all about how life can bring so many different hard situations. Your finances never seem to balance. Your broken promise to a friend. Your lack of trust in a partner. Your constant messiness is always distracting you from the peace you want in your life. 

“If only we knew how deeply Jesus understands and cares for us. If only we could see the wonder of His love. The skies He paints, the flowers He blooms, the world He arranges just for us. The love letters He’s written to us throughout the Bible.” 

“Hebrews 4:15-16 reminds us of how approachable He is, how He understands our struggles and graciously offers us help and hope: “We do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are- yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”

I just loved this devotional so much because I realized that Jesus has felt every feeling I have ever felt. That just encourages me to fully trust God’s process and listen to him. I am about to graduate college in a month or so & I am feeling all the stress and anxiety. I keep reminding myself God has a wonderful and beautiful plan and I just need to be patient.

I think our lives can get a little crazy. We are busy with school, a kid, work, traveling, or whatever it is. I hope we can just start taking time out of our day to talk to God and truly spend time with him. I just felt led to share this message, as I needed to hear this message.

I hope this was also encouraging to you as well. Love yall so much !!

Workouts /

Changing the “I don’t know what to do at the gym mentality!”

 

Hello friends!!

I just wanted to write a small little blog to give yall some superset ideas. I have gotten a lot of feedback saying, “I have no idea what to do at the gym!” That is fine, and I also feel like this at times. I do have some workout TikToks for some inspo on my account but here are a couple of sets that you might like!

These pictures I found off Pinterest, but these are some great guides for you if you don’t know what to do. I encourage you to educate yourself on how to do certain workouts and to figure out your form. There have been so many times when I have hurt myself because of bad form. I am still learning new ways things about working out. We are in this together! I also wanted to share a couple of my favorite YouTube videos as well.

I wanted to give yall some motivation. I can understand how working out sounds terrible, and you don’t want to get off the couch bc season 3 of Outerbanks is out. I understand. But working out will make your body and mind happier. You will be more efficient at work. You will have a better attitude at school. You will get stronger. Working out just makes you happier, don’t you want to be a happier person?! You should also find a fitness partner. Having someone to keep you accountable is key. Someone who can push you to get up and work out! 

“Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that leave you feeling happier, more relaxed, and less anxious. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem!”

If you live in Nashville and would like a workout buddy…I would love to work out with you. I have had some friends just ask to work out with me recently, and I would love that!

Have a great week. ILY!

The BEST Chicken Enchiladas

Hey, cuties!! I just made these enchiladas & they were so perfect I had to share them with you guys. Plus you can make a ton of these and eat them for a couple of days. They were really easy to make, and you can spice them up with toppings. Y’all have to try them!!!

Ingredients 

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • Tortillas (I used the mini ones, you can use the normal ones if you want)
  • Shredded cheddar cheese
  • Enchilada sauce
  • 1 bell pepper
  • ½ red onion or a whole one
  • Tomatoes (I used about 10-12 cherry tomatoes, you can use any kind or even buy the crushed tomatoes in a can) 

 

Spices

  • Garlic salt
  • Optional: Guacamole spice
  • Optional: Taco seasoning
  • Use whatever spice you like for chicken/ peppers 

 

Directions

  • Make grilled chicken on the stove. I always like to shred it once it’s almost done (view my Tik Tok on how to shred the chicken)
  • I used garlic salt and guacamole spice and added this to the shredded chicken (use any spices you want here)
  • Once done with the chicken, set it aside. Add your red onion, bell pepper, and sliced tomatoes to the skillet. You can also add seasoning or taco seasoning if you have it
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add your chicken + shredded cheese pepper/ onion/ tomato mixture to your tortilla. You don’t want to fill this up super full because you want to fold both ends of the tortilla nicely together. You will flip the whole tortilla upside down on the pan (view my Tik Tok below if you need help)
  • Top the “upside-down tacos” with some more shredded cheese and your enchilada sauce 
  • Pop those in the oven for about 10 minutes
  • I topped these with a little bit of queso, tomatoes, and more enchilada sauce
  • Enjoy cutie!!!
