Welcome to Esther’s kitchen:

“Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.”3 John 1:2

My name is Esther. A wife, a sister and a blessed mom of five lovely children. Am a Kenyan-American by nationality and currently residing in the United States.

As a Pediatric Nurse , I juggled alot between my full time work schedules and mom duties which left me with less or minimum energy. As a result, I turned into eating whatever came my way and that left me overweight and unhealthy.

I unfortunately associated healthy food with pain and unhealthy food with pleasure.In the middle of this I lost my dad through a heart attack. His passing was a wake up call for me especially knowing that my health history has forever changed and I will be considered at risk.I just didn’t like the way I felt , I was uncomfortable in my own body, had no energy and lack of sleep. I needed to do better for the sake of my family and I.

Cooking has never been my cup of tea. Having a vision in mind made it alot easier during tough time and it enabled me to track my progress. I am my own biggest fan and supporter. I dont focus on how hard my changes will be but rather on finding a way to make them work in any ways. I took baby steps and motivated myself to cooking healthy and eating more at home. Healthy diet doesn’t mean a perfect diet I learned. My love for healthy eating didn’t happen at once, I started familiarizing myself with variety of foods. I also started becoming more active and enrolled at the planet fitness center. I realized support is an important part of a successful weight loss program.

The main idea behind Esther’s Kitchen is to eat clean and healthy foods without using processed and canned goods. Natural seasonings and herbs are used. My flavors are insipired by natural ingredients from all kinds of foods, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and nuts. I have also incorporated vegan recipes which tastes great. In those recipes I included protein, good cooking fat, whole carbs, and vitamins.

For me, healthy food going into my body translates to a healthier state of mind.
