MEET ANGELA
Angela Woodley’s culinary journey began in the South Bronx, where she learned the art of cooking from her parents. Her mother’s love for growing herbs and infusing them into meals helped Angela understand how flavors come together to create something truly special. After moving to Georgia in 2010 and working in the music industry, Angela started cooking empanadas for her recording studio clients. This humble beginning grew into a full-fledged business, and in 2016, La Jefa Empanadas was born. In 2018, Angela shifted her focus to making her company a success and committed to a plant-based lifestyle. With a passion for creating delicious and authentic empanadas, she worked tirelessly to bring her vision to life.
Now, La Jefa Empanadas is back, and Angela is ready to show the world that you can enjoy authentic, flavorful foods on a plant-based diet.
