New Flavors

Green Apple is back! This tastes like a jolly rancher! I also was obsessed with it over the winter with hot water and a cinnamon stick in place of a warm cup of coffee. DELICIOUS! I've also mixed it with Key Lime Cherry Rehydrate!

Mixing recipes! A Spinach Artichoke Pasta Remix

  

As time has progressed and I've learned and practiced more with healthy eating, I've learned to branch out a little. And dare I say it, even try things without recipes! 
One of my FAVORITE things is spinach artichoke dip. The other used to be Alfredo. So I did my best to use all the tools at my disposal and the random things in my fridge to create a delicious combination of the two! Here's what I came up with. 

I threw 2 pieces of Tilapia in the oven at 400 for about 20 minutes.
I started cooking the pasta while all of this got started. While that was cooking I got things chopped up and in to a pan to cook trough the veggies and melt the cheese in.
Below are the ingredients I used but they could certainly vary for your taste.


1 box whole wheat pasta (your choice of style). Cook and set aside.

"Secret Sauce"
I chopped about a chunk of asparagus into small short pieces
1/2 of an orange and yellow bell pepper
4 artichoke hearts
1/2 box of frozen spinach thawed and water squeezed out
Almond Milk
1/2 small ricotta cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
Salt, Pepper and Crushed Red Pepper flakes to taste

Cook on medium heat until the veggies are cooked. Then add in the cheese and blend.

This was a DELICIOUS meal!

Heading outdoors for a sweat session!

This is my FAVORITE time of year. It's not too hot or too cold, it's just right! Many think they have to have a gym membership, a trainer or access to group fitness. But the truth is you can head out your own backyard! (or in our case the back parking lot at work)

We took to the pavement, curb and grass at work to get in a good sweat session during lunch break. The breakdown of this workout is 45 seconds of exercise, 15 seconds of rest. 

The first time through everything is on the right (if the exercise has a "side"), the second on the left.  Take a water break in between rounds. Start with 2 rounds working your way to 4.

The key is doing what you can, if you can't go the whole 45 seconds work on what you can and a little longer and quicker each time. Stay consistent and focused on form. This is meant as a guide and can be modified to your level!

GO GET 'EM!

Up & Down the Pavement
Frog Jumps - Squat all the way down, hands touching the ground, spring up.
Low Lateral Shuffle - Stay low, shuffle to the side
High Knees - Run, bringing your knees as high to your chest as you can
Butt Kick Run - Lean forward slightly, keep your knees towards the ground and run pulling your foot to your butt
Walking Lunges - Deep lunges forward, arms up if you can
Side lunge/Curtsy Lunge - Step to the side leaning all your weight onto one leg (right the first time), followed by a step behind "curtsy" with the opposite leg. Return to start.
Skaters - Jump/step out to the side, touch back, repeat on other side

Curb it

Push Ups - Feet on the ground, hands on the curb. Widen your feet for a lighter level
Jump ons  - Feet together, jump on to the curb and back off. For more of a challenge increase the speed
Tricep Dips - Hand facing your bottom, propped up on the curb, lower bending elbows into an "L" and return
Step Lateral with straight side leg lift - Bent leg on curb, straight leg on pavement, lower the bent leg until the opposing leg touches the ground, straight the "curb" side leg, and raise the opposing leg out to the side

Scissor Jumps - Alternating feet jump at the same time, switching legs each time landing, one leg bent on the curb and the other on the pavement (shown in picture)
