EatingWell: What motivated you to partner with Home Chef to create these meal kits?
Curry:I think it was the opportunity to bring different flavors and cultures into peoples homes.
Being able to work with the Home Chef team to accomplish that has been just dreamy.
EatingWell: What is your favorite recipe from your Home Chef partnership?
Curry: I think the jerk-style chicken and rice bowl.
I think its a great intro to Jamaican cooking for people who may have never had that before.
Being able to introduce that to somebody, I think, is really exciting.
I think people are gonna love it.
EatingWell: What is your go-to kitchen tool that you cant live without?
Curry:Fish spatula.
I love my fish spatula so much.
I honestly use it for everything.
I just love how thin and versatile it is.
Its the perfect tool to have on hand.
Ill have it forever.
EatingWell:Can you walk me through your morning routine?
Curry:These days I wake up at about 6:30 a.m., because thats when my youngest wakes up.
Then I get the kids up for school.
And I take their order for their morning drinks.
Its a tradition in our house that I make them all a special drink.
They each have their little fancy cup that I serve it in.
I know when they get older, itll be such a fun memory.
EatingWell: Whats your favorite breakfast food?
Curry:I love a bagel and lox, but I do mine a little untraditionally.
Having that sweet bite with creamy cream cheese and the salty smoked salmon is just to die for.
EatingWell: What does eating well mean to you?
Curry:I think eating well to me ebbs and flows.
Its whatever is filling you at that moment.
Other times its fueling the body with healthy foods, and I go through those moments as well.
I feel like thats where you find the balance with how you eat.
