Recipe by Rachelle Hacmac
Let’s talk about self care. We know, it’s a trending topic, but what exactly IS self care? Well, it’s subjective! For us, it means setting your future self up for success and giving yourself a little extra love. Self love looks like meal prepping for the week so you have nourishment while at work, drawing yourself a bath so you can sleep through the night better, or simply blocking off one night a week in your calendar for some alone, chill-time. Now go love yourself a little more by making this delicious plant-based Alfredo sauce to go with your lunch tomorrow!
