The Rotating Chef

Meet our host Caleb Owolabi and special guest chef Shaniqua Simuel. Shaniqua prepares two healthy drink alternatives that provide long lasting health benefits and the importance of utilizing all ingredients.

Shaniqua visits a local vegan restaurant with a close friend. They sample several dishes and remark upon the aspects of a healthy diet. After visiting the restaurant, Shaniqua is inspired to create a healthy plant based dish.

Shaniqua's journey continues as we learn about her physical routine through Hip-Hop dance. Followed by a visit to a local restaurant, we become familiar with grounded traditions and ingredients of the Carolinas.

Caleb Owolabi learns more about Shaniqua and her cooking style, and the benefits of farm-to-table cuisine, while discovering new plant species along the way.

Shaniqua advocates for her involvement with a local garden community that cultivates and promotes harmonious growth within the community. She obtains ingredients and prepares another vegan style dish.

Shaniqua prepares healthy dishes for members of her community. She addresses the concern of food waste, and demonstrates the benefits of using organic ingredients in her dishes.
