Top Ten Reasons I LOVE My Job…..

Top Ten Reasons I LOVE my Job…

1. I luuuuuuvvvv to workout! So why would I not want to teach people what I love.

2. I like people and meeting new people. People are weird! I really enjoy getting to know people and their funny quirks

3. I like to laugh! Hahahah! Every day I laugh. I must have really funny clients… but no matter what something funny happens when you workout with people.

4. I’m a care taker, or in other words, I am a nurturer by nature. I get a lot of warm fuzzy feelings from giving people what they need.

5. One of my favorite things in the world is to be able to be in the moment with someone when they realize that they can do something that they though they couldn’t. This happens daily. Getting people out of their comfort zone!

6. I am very self motivated. I always knew I would own my own biz. I like to do what I like to do. I don’t like people telling me what to do

7. I love getting people excited about eating healthy and cooking. This is part of my legacy.

8. I get to hang out with TONS of different and interesting people! I learn so much from all you! So much good advice and interesting perspective. I get to hang with people who are straight up smart! I learn every single day.

9. I get to be excited to get out of bed! I look forward to kick’in butt! It literally is fun for me

10. I get to wear spandex ALL DAY!
Ok, enough of that. Here is what I really want to tell you:

A new protein bar!

2 Cups 7 grain

1 can organic coconut milk… I had to heat this just a tad so it wouldn’t be lumpy.

1 T cinn

4 T hemp protein

2 tiny, tiny scoops stevia

Mix it all up and cool it for just a few so the coconut milk hardens slightly.

This recipe makes 4…. and a little baby one. Each one is 1/2 cup.

An EASY, CHEAP, HEALTHY cabbage salad.

Did I mention that it tastes delicious!!!

Buy a cabbage. Purple or green. Your choice.

Use a mandolin to shred it up!

Add 1/2 cup of organic cold pressed olive oil.

1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar

3 teas of sea salt… celtic is best

This is great just plain and simple. Or you can add….

Optional 1/4 cup of hemp seeds. This will jack the price up but totally worth it for added GOOD fat and protein!

Thinly sliced white onion.

Poppy seeds?

Be creative here!

This is what you do:

Make quinoa. Take 1.5 cup of water and 1 t salt and boil, then add 1 cup of quinoa… turn down heat and cover for 10-15 min. Or til water is gone.

In a skillet turn to med heat ad 1 T olive oil. Take your leek slit it down the middle and rinse well. then slice into1/4 in slices. Add to pan and cook til slightly brown.

Mix leeks and quinoa together!!!!

I like to eat this with 2 eggs or a small chicken thigh and a nice green salad.

1 bananer, 1 small cont. of frz blue burries, 1 cup organic milk, 1 Table spoon of Almond butter, a scoop of this:

The healthiest recipe since perfect food balls!

I did it! I came up with yet another recipe that will help make your nutrition program a little easier. This is a simple recipe and incorporates protein, fat and carbs! Great for any meal…. except late night snack

You will need:

1. 2 scoops Vanilla Whey protein…. the same one from protein balls

2. 1 cup 7 grain cereal from new seasons. Looks like oat meal but it has 7 grains!

3. 1/2 cups of almonds… i recommend soaking overnight.

Primary Benefits of Soaking Almonds in Water
Almonds are difficult to digest because of an enzyme-inhibiting substance in their brown coating. These enzyme inhibitors protect the nut or seed until it has what it needs for growth. Soaking almonds overnight removes these toxic enzyme inhibitors so that the enzymes secreted during digestion can do their job. Also the gluten breaks down, and digestion becomes much easier. Phytic acid, which inhibits absorption of vital minerals, is also reduced after soaking almonds. This helps our body get the benefit of vitality contained within them.

4. 1/2 cup of sunflower seeds. Good FATS!

5. 1/2 cup of unsweetened coconut from the carton… not the can.

6. 1 T of Cinnamon…. so GOOD. Cinnamon is great for helping to keep your blood sugar even!

Mix all ingredients and press in a half cup…. then pop over into a cupcake paper…. or a small bowl. Refrigerate! Enjoy!
