My Tips on Having Healthy Skin

Image
Skin naturally changes as you age. You lose fullness, gain lines and wrinkles and notice dryness more often – and it’s inevitable. What isn’t out of your control, however, is how you treat your skin throughout your lifetime. There are dozens of factors that influence the way your complexion changes over time, and many of those come from lifestyle choices you made as a teenager and young adult, and carried on to your everyday habits. Beyond the natural wear and tear God expected to come of your skin, there are numerous ways to maintain healthy skin as you age and ensure overall wellness in your complexion. Here are a few tips: 1. Don’t Think Twice About Unhealthy Habits If one thing’s for sure, it’s that smoking and drinking alcohol is detrimental to overall health.

Street Corn Chicken Tacos

How do you cook the chicken for these tacos? I recommend grilling the chicken for these tacos, but if you don’t have a grill, then I’d recommend cooking the marinated chicken in either a grill pan or a skillet. For grilled chicken tacos:  Trim the fat off the chicken breasts and pound the breasts to an even thickness to ensure even grilling. You can also slice the breasts evenly in half width-wise to make them cook faster. Place the prepared chicken in a large ziplock bag and set aside. Whisk together the marinade in a small bowl: Olive oil,  lime zest, freshly squeezed lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, chili powder, and salt + pepper. Once the mixture is well combined, remove about 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture and reserve for later. Add the rest of the marinade in the bag with the chicken. Seal the bag and then knead the chicken with your hands to ensure all of the chicken is well coated. Place in the fridge and marinate for at least 45 minutes,
