Vernita Harris and Beatrice Moore have turned a 40-plus year friendship into a business over food. The friends met while in attending Praire View A & M University in Texas as college students and have since supported each other’s journeys through life since.

Their friendship turned into a partnership during the pandemic in 2020 when they began to create a community by sharing recipes. This led to publishing their first cookbook, ”Pinch-Dash-Done: A Gateway to Flavorful Recipes,” which received several accolades.

Due to be released on April 6, their follow-up cookbook “Pinch-Dash-Done: Make It Seasonal,” focuses on cooking with fruits and vegetables that are in season for optimal flavors.

In this episode, they are talking about the success of their cookbooks that includes a partnership with AARP.
