NORFOLK, Va. — Lexy Rogers hopes to teach people how to make easy, soulful meals with her debut cookbook, “Break Bread on a Budget: Ordinary Ingredients, Extraordinary Meals,” which was released April 4.
She should know since she’s a private chef, Air Force wife and mother of three living in Hampton, Virginia.
Rogers grew up in Illinois about an hour from Chicago. She fell in love with cooking at the age of 11 while watching her grandmother and aunt. She didn’t see them use recipes or measure anything. She noticed how happy family and friends were eating their food, though.
