Marquita Moore is no stranger to PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT. In 2018, the entertainment executive turned writer/author sat down with PGS founder Aeshia for Episode 13 of the PGS podcast. Listen here. After some soul searching, the Brewton, Alabama beauty answered her true calling of being a writer and birthed a platform to share food, perspective, and inspiration for her community.

In episode 2 of her new series “How I Cooked Today,” she gets intimate with the reveal of family photos, nostalgic stories, and her adaptation of her Grandma Elouise’s Black Pepper Rice. So take a look and share the name of a recipe a family member passed down to you.

“Feeding the Soul: It’s ok to adapt the past. While I was in the middle of making this dish, I had a revelation about changing things, so that it works for you. It is how OK to change things up. Not just in cooking, but in life.”
