I'm Rachel, and I'm on a mission to get healthy! So what about me? This Texican (Texas Mexican American) is challenging herself to get this lifetime weight off her! I know the challenge will take time and I'm prepared for that! I also LOVE food! So, I have decided to make this blog all about delicious HEALTHY food. Married to a Pakistani, this Texican has fused and my palette is now used to colorful, flavorful, savory, sweet delicacies from the east. Mix those wonderful eastern flavors with my southern Tex-Mex flavors and a brilliant array of new possibilities are at hand! Stop by my blog and see what's cooking in my kitchen.

2014's goals entail: 1) ENJOY LIFE! 2) EAT RIGHT! 3) BE GOOD TO YOURSELF!

Eat healthy foods- fruits and veggies, Get my protein in, Drink water, and try to be active!

I love adventure! I'm no longer a spectator, I'm active in life!!!!
