It gets so long it starts to snake through the market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her signature dishes are the draw. There\u2019s wild-caught, antibiotic-free filleted whiting fish that she carefully dips in a gluten-free cornmeal batter and fries to order. A fresh, lightened macaroni salad made with chicken that\u2019s seared instead of fried is another popular option. The lunch rush is busy, but she loves every minute it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.wixstatic.com\/media\/719b26_06c1a545db5648db87d858aeaa614c2b~mv2.jpg\/v1\/fill\/w_720,h_728,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto\/719b26_06c1a545db5648db87d858aeaa614c2b~mv2.jpg\" alt=\"Pieces of BelleJohns' cornbread\" width=\"360\" height=\"364\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 360px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 360\/364;\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Turning a Profit &amp; Scaling Up<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI am enamored with what I do,\u201d Jewel says. She launched BelleJohns\u2019 Soul Food four years ago. At the farmers markets, she tells customers about her Chef Plate Service, a custom catering and meal delivery service geared toward busy families. Business has steadily grown and she\u2019s now turning a profit. \u201cIt\u2019s been slow, but it\u2019s been amazing. This is the first year I\u2019ve seen a decent owner\u2019s draw.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next year, she\u2019s scaling up. She has plans for a second tent to accommodate three fryers, two cashiers, and extra space for her signature sweet potato pies.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.wixstatic.com\/media\/719b26_6fbabab51abd451ba94625caa4b119f1~mv2.jpg\/v1\/fill\/w_720,h_874,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto\/719b26_6fbabab51abd451ba94625caa4b119f1~mv2.jpg\" alt=\"Cooking at Garden State Kitchen\" width=\"360\" height=\"437\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 360px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 360\/437;\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Goals &amp; A Family Legacy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The long lines bode well for one of Jewel\u2019s many goals as an entrepreneur: keep growing BelleJohns\u2019 Soul Food so she can leave it to her kids Belle and John, the two namesakes of her company. \u201cBelle is my princess, that\u2019s my daughter, and John is my son, my superhero. I put the \u2018s\u2019 on it and the apostrophe after the \u2018s\u2019 to show ownership,\u201d she explains. \u201cWhen I leave this planet, they own my business \u2013 it goes straight to them in my will. They can continue it or sell it \u2013 whatever makes them happy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It All Started with a Career in Engineering<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jewel started cooking while she was studying at NJIT to become an engineer. When asked to bring food to events at the National Society of Black Engineers, she turned to recipes she learned from her mom who catered for 25 years and her dad who cooked in the military for 13 years. Her food was an instant hit.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.wixstatic.com\/media\/719b26_f221b7faf50142528e0525e43a268ae7~mv2_d_1440_1440_s_2.jpg\/v1\/fill\/w_720,h_720,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto\/719b26_f221b7faf50142528e0525e43a268ae7~mv2_d_1440_1440_s_2.jpg\" alt=\"Working at a festival\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 360px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 360\/360;\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Becoming a Boss<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After graduating with a bachelor of science degree and certifications from the American Concrete Institute, she put cooking on hold and looked for a job in industrial management and building construction. As an African American woman, she said it was tough landing a job and advancing in a field dominated by men, but she did it. She was hired as a quality control technician at the port in Newark. \u201cThey appreciated my brain and my education and my skill set,\u201d she says. \u201cIt was wonderful experience and beginning.\u201d From there, she went on to supervise a crew of eight men before leaving the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jewel still loves building things and empowering other women to do the same. \u201cI have a tool bag in my work van,\u201d she says. \u201cI show the women who work for me how to put up the signs, the tents, and the fryers at the farmers markets \u2013 everything. People are so impressed \u2013 you should see the women watching us as we put it together. We get so many compliments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Investing in Future Generations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While equity and empowerment are important to Jewel, so is financial stability for her family and future generations. With plans to retire as a millionaire, she\u2019s working on her goals and investments. She has her eye on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenstatekitchen.com\/post\/entrepreneur-feature-pamela-beardslee\">Puras Paletas<\/a>, a growing all-natural fruit ice pop business also based at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenstatekitchen.com\/\">Garden State Kitchen<\/a>. \u201cI want to invest as much as I can in different small businesses and I want to focus on women,\u201d she says. \u201cI\u2019m here when and if she\u2019s ready.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Challenges &amp; Forgiveness<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While this past year has brought Jewel entrepreneurial success, she\u2019s seen some challenges. In November, she was hit by a drunk driver and ended up losing the lower part of her left leg. Through it all, Jewel stayed focused on healing. \u201cThey told me it would take a year before I would be back on my feet again, before I could even think about cooking,\u201d she says. \u201cI was working in May \u2013 six months later.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many surgeries later, she wears a prosthetic and sits on a stool in the kitchen when she wants to. Despite the physical pain, she feels lucky to be able to pursue her dreams. She also says she forgives the man who brought her so much harm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI wish him well, I really do. I have to forgive him in order to forgive myself and move on,\u201d Jewel explains. \u201cI can\u2019t be upset or angry because that takes energy away from me and makes my health dissipate. He made some bad decisions, and we\u2019ve all done that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn a way, I thank him,\u201d she continues. \u201cIt put me in a different place in life \u2013 I see things I never thought about, or noticed, or even knew were here on the planet. I feel like I\u2019m in another life. It\u2019s beautiful. I am blessed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find Jewel and BelleJohns\u2019 Soul Food at the farmers markets and online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a
