What would possess a person to work out in the blazing sun and 90 deg F weather?
☀️
I made up my mind. I made up my mind that I was tired of being tired. I was tired of not feeling strong. I was tired of not prioritizing my health.
💪🏼
It’s true what they say. As a woman and mother, you give so much to other people, that you forget to take care of yourself. But I finally realized that I couldn’t take care of others if I was rundown, frustrated and weak.
So I started working out everyday. I started eating more healthfully. I started taking care of my thoughts.
❤️
I do this everyday because it helps me feel better, stronger and healthier. It helps me show up as a better mother, wife, friend and Coach. And it helps me show myself that I am worth it.
🤗
If you’re ready to show up for yourself, join the 30 Days to a Healthier You Challenge with myself and danielle_throckmorton ! We will guide you to creating healthy habits that work for you, while also providing you with meal plans, expert coaching and support. This time is now. Are you ready to be a better, stronger and healthier you?

How do I eat healthy at a summer bbq?
😋
Like this! Here’s my 4 tips for healthy eating when you’re at a weekend pool party or bbq this summer:
🌭
1) Protein: a summer bbq will likely have some sort of grilled meat like burgers and hot dogs. Try to opt for the least processed version of meat, like a freshly made burger patty, or bring/find a preservative free sausage option to cook on the grill.
🍔
2) Fill at least half your plate with veggies: summer veg are at their peak right now so take advantage of their crisp freshness and fill up half your plate with it. Bonus points if you can include a variety of veggie colors!
🥬
3) Healthy fats: the dressing on your salad, nuts, seeds or avocado in the guac, are awesome examples of healthy fats that you can incorporate into your meal.
🥑
4) Make it a choice: remember that gatherings with friends and family are supposed to be fun! If you find yourself stressing about what to eat because there are very few options, you can choose to partake in the food festivities and at your next meal, choose to eat something that is more in line with your healthy eating goals. Instead of beating yourself up because you didn’t stick perfectly to your eating plan, give yourself grace! And know that everything is a choice and you are in control of the choices you make. One meal is not going to make or break your commitment to living a healthier lifestyle in the long term. Choose to make your next meal a little healthier.

MY ALMOST SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS! 😂 Honestly, we a

MY ALMOST SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS!
😂
Honestly, we are out of a lot of groceries so this was my quick dinner idea, inspired by Sausage and Peppers.
😋
Instead of sausage, I used some lean deer loin cut into strips. This was a really tasty way to make a quick, healthy and delish dinner. SAVE THIS RECIPE!

Ingredients:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, sliced
2 cups bell peppers, sliced
1 lb sausage or other meat choice
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups crushed tomatoes
1 cup beef bone broth
1 tbsp dried basil
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 cup kale, chopped

Instructions:
In a large pan, add 1 tbsp olive oil and heat over medium heat.
Add onion and bell peppers, and sauté till softened about 5 mins.
Add your meat of choice and sauté for another 5 mins.
Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
Simmer till the meat is cooked through.
Season with salt and pepper.
Serve with polenta, pasta or cauliflower mash.
YUM!
😋❤️🍽

Guess how many veggies are in this fried rice?
😋
Fried rice is a great way to use up leftover rice (obvs 😜), meat and veg.
😋
But fried rice doesn’t have to be all about the rice. You can actually sneak in lots of veggies into this dish. This is the perfect tactic for picky kids and husbands.
😂
Tonight’s fried rice had a whopping 7 different veggies in it! Onions, carrots, kale, snow peas, spinach, peas and red bell peppers. And everyone loved it!
🤗
What veggies do you add to fried rice?

“I’m BORED of leftovers!” 😐 If you’ve

“I’m BORED of leftovers!”
😐
If you’ve ever heard that before from your family, or you’ve said that before, there’s a few simple ways to reinvent your leftovers.
😋
I had a bunch of quinoa mixed with black beans, corn and spinach, and wanted to make it different for tonight’s dinner. But how did I do that???
🤔
Here’s my 3 top tips for transforming your leftovers:
1) Change the shape: instead of serving the quinoa as is, I made it into simple quinoa cakes by adding eggs (see my stories for a how-to guide). You can do the same with almost any dish. You could shred up pot roast or brisket, you can chop up chicken breast or even purée veggies to make a soup.
2) Add new flavors: to change the flavors of the dish, I added some boldly flavored tuna salad. Other ways to add flavor are with sauces and spices, like salsa, pesto, fresh or dry herbs.
3) Change the sides: for previous meals, the quinoa was the side. But tonight, I paired it with a colorful salad. Think about adding some different and new sides to completely change the whole dish. Some ideas for new sides are roasted/sautéed/steamed veg, pasta or veggie noodles, grits, rice etc. You can also add lots of fresh new flavors to your sides too!
😋
