šŸ„˜ Beyond the Mic: Patti LaBelle's Musical Magic and Culinary Charm

Patti LaBelle, celebrated for her stunning vocals and Grammy-winning performances, isnā€™t just a musical powerhouse ā€” sheā€™s also a culinary virtuoso. Her journey from singing sensation to a maestro in the kitchen is nothing short of inspiring.

However, LaBelle isnā€™t pausing at her musical success. At 79, sheā€™s leveraging her iconic status to bolster her food brand, Pattiā€™s Good Life. Her irresistible sweet potato pies and mouthwatering mac 'n' cheese are now Walmart bestsellers, underscoring her extraordinary entrepreneurial voyage.

Patti LaBelleā€™s enduring influence on music and her entrepreneurial spirit continue to inspire generations and are a testament to her remarkable legacy.

I hope you start your week with motivation to take a moment and focus on yourself.

Until tomorrow,

Emma, Live Well Now Team

AIR FRYER EGGPLANT

šŸ‘ Live Well Now Approved | Low Calorie | Vegetarian

You Will Need:

1/2 cup water (or orange juice)

1 gre1 medium Eggplant (sliced)

2 tbsp Olive oil

1 tsp Sea salt

1/2 tsp Black pepper

1 cup Grated parmesan cheese

2 tsp Italian seasoning

Directions:

1. Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2. Slice the eggplant crosswise to make circles, about 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) thick. Cut off the leafy end only after you are done slicing, so that you'll have more to grab onto as you slice. Pat the slices dry with paper towels.

3. Drizzle or brush the eggplant slices with olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.

4. Arrange eggplant slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10-12 minutes, until the eggplant is soft and the cheese is golden brown. Repeat in batches with remaining eggplant slices.
