🍓 Strawberry Bread (craving sweets)
Ingredients
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced (patted dry with paper towel)
OR 2 cups frozen strawberries (from two 10-oz packages), thawed and drained well
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp kosher salt
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
(or more, to taste)
• 2 large eggs, room temperature
• ½ cup vegetable oil
(or melted unsalted butter, cooled)
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ cup chopped nuts
(optional – walnuts or pecans are great)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, oil (or butter), and vanilla until smooth.
4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined (don’t overmix).
5. Fold in the strawberries (and nuts, if using). If strawberries are very juicy, toss them with 1 tsp flour first to prevent sinking.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
7. Bake for 60–70 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
✨ Tips for Best Results
• For a pretty finish, sprinkle cinnamon-sugar on top before baking. Or a simple glaze.
• This bread tastes even better the next day once the flavors settle.
• Wrap tightly and freeze for up to 2 months.

🌸 Nana’s Home
She Chose Herself
A Vision of Healing, Hope & Home
Many of you know me as the Temecula Tamale Queen. For years, I poured my heart into Nana’s Tamales and even ran a restaurant. Closing that chapter wasn’t easy — but God placed something bigger on my heart:
✨ A vision for healing beyond the plate.
💜 Why This Is Personal
Addiction runs deep in my family.
• My father died at 35 from a he**in overdose.
• My mother, after many years of sobriety, relapsed due to lack of support, shame, and secrets. She passed away at just 59 from alcoholism and diabetes.
• I also lost my Nana at 57 to the same struggles.
This is why Nana’s Home ~ She Chose Herself was born: a women-only sober living home where women in recovery can find safety, support, and the courage to heal.
🌸 What We’re Building
✨ Safe Housing for Women – A nurturing sober living home in progress.
✨ Healing Programs – Trauma-informed workshops to address the roots of addiction.
✨ Empowerment Through Work – Job skills through Nana’s Tamales and my cookbooks.
🌺 How You Can Help
Because Nana’s Home is still in progress, your support means everything.
When you:
• 🍴 Buy Nana’s Tamales
• 🎉 Book Catering
• 📚 Purchase one of my Cookbooks
• 💌 Share our story
👉 You’re helping us lay the foundation for Nana’s Home. Every dollar counts, and every act of support goes toward a great cause — giving women a safe place to heal, rebuild, and choose themselves.
🌸 Together, we are turning tamales, stories, and support into transformation.
