“I feel that a lot of girls probably feel this way: there can be a role that you can act the hell out of and because they might have some previously set opinion of who you are or what you are, it makes it hard for them to see you as anything else.”

Stay sexy recipe: Mango lime wraps
Sisters, summer is here and it’s time to move your bikinis from the bottom drawer to the top drawer, buy a good quality sunscreen for your gorgeous faces and start incorporating some summertime recipes in to your rotation. With age comes maturity. I have had to come to terms with the fact that I can’t fry myself in the sun with baby oil like I use to and that what I choose to eat poolside, actually matters. Have no fear though, I’ve got you covered. Here’s one easy recipe that will curb your temptation to eat the greasy meals men love to cook poolside.
The beauty benefits
While you leave ordering pizzas and cooking burgers to the boys, take them by surprise and bring your own party favors so you can still snack while you lounge. These mango lime wraps are the perfect solution. They are filling and will keep your belly flat while you rock your new bikini that, if your like me, you have worked so hard to get in to.
A nutritionist once told me the general rule to eating melon is “eat it alone, or leave it alone.” Since mangos are filled with enzymes that aid in digestion they make the perfect substitution for this classic dish. Mango is a major beauty food. It’s loaded with fiber, helps to alkalize your body and even helps to unclog pores. Pair it with basil and you can’t lose. Basil isn’t far behind in the beauty department either. It’s full of anti-inflammatory qualities and lots of vitamin A that aids in maintaining good vision and oral health. So when you spot the cute guy at the pool, and thanks to basil you will be able to, don’t be scared to lay a kiss on him. Sweet basil’s got your back.
Ingredients:
- 1 Mango, pre-sliced is fine but nothing beats a fresh mango. (Pick up a mango slicer while your shopping. It’s a game changer.)
- Thinly sliced prosciutto, approx 8-10 slices
- Sweet Basil
- Arugula
- Black pepper, a pinch (optional)
- 1 Lime
- A potato peeler
Directions:
Slice mango down the center and remove the seed. Using a potato peeler, peel off the skin and discard. In the palm of your hand lay out a thin piece of prosciutto. Lay 1 large basil leaf, 3 pieces of arugula, and a slice of mango on top of the prosciutto and roll it up. A pinch of black pepper and a generous squeeze of lime and you are good to go.
*One mango will make about 14 rollups.

‘Vegan Chipotle Corn Chowder’
Hi friends! I feel like it has been so long since I have updated RGK with a new recipe! I have been hard at work on a cookbook and most of my new food ideas have been put towards getting the book finished! I can’t wait to share it with ya’ll but more importantly, I’m excited to get back to work on my blog. Summer is here and I have all kinds of veggie and salad ideas, but before it gets too hot I wanted to get one more great soup recipe up. I love corn chowder but it’s usually made with bacon and heavy cream. Here is a vegan version that is just and tasty and won’t leave you with any guilt!
3 tbsp of olive oil
3 stalks of celery, diced
half of a red bell pepper, diced
half of a yellow onion, diced
half of a potato, peeled and diced
7 stalks of corn, cut off the cob, approx 6 cups
2 cups of unsweetened soy milk
2 cups of vegetable broth
2 tbsp of Chipotle Adobo Sauce
1 tsp of sea salt
1 tsp of black pepper
A food mill or vita-mix
In a large sauce pot, heat olive oil. Add celery, onion, potato and bell pepper. Saute till soft. Add vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Add 3 cups of corn. Once corn is soft, run through food mill or vita-mix till smooth. Transfer back to pot, add remaining 3 cups of corn, adobo sauce and soy milk. Bring to a slow simmer.
Garnish with fresh cut scallions and red pepper.
