21 Day Fix Recipe: Stuffed Peppers



These are truly one of our families favorite meals!  They are so yummy and super easy.  Each pepper equals 1 green, 1 red, 1 yellow and 1 blue container.

6 Peppers (your choice of color)
3 cups of cooked brown rice
1 can crushed tomatoes with Italian seasoning
1 lb of lean ground turkey
1 1/2 cups of mozzarella cheese

Brown the turkey and add tomatoes.  Then using your containers mix one yellow of rice with 1 red of the meat mixture.  Stuff into cleaned pepper.  Repeat for all peppers.  Then sprinkle one blue container of cheese on each pepper.  Bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes or until filling is hot.

PiYo: One Week Later


Ok, so after a week of my new PiYo adventure here is my review.  The workouts are intense!  This is not a wimpy at home workout.  I have been stretched to the point of shear exhaustion!  However, with that being said I have come through it not only stronger physically but mentally, as well.  There were several days that I contemplated giving up and going back to my 21 Day Fix workouts.  I made myself push through and the results are great.  As I started my second week I notice that I am able to hold that plank just a little bit longer and my warrior 3 pose is just a little bit more steady.  To me that is a big WIN!  When you beat a challenge both physically and mentally it opens up a new way of being, it makes you a better person.  So, lesson learned.....KEEP GOING!

See you next time!

PiYo: My New Adventure!


Today I start a new fitness adventure!  After doing the 21 Day Fix workouts for 4 months I am ready to mix it up a little.  So today I start PiYo....

What makes PiYo unique?
Benefits of Pilates, yoga, and cardio—all in one!
It's an authentic, incredibly effective body-transformation program that combines Pilates- and yoga-inspired moves, all set to a faster pace, so you get your strength, flexibility, and cardio all in each workout. PiYo delivers the long, lean muscles and flat, toned abs of Pilates, a firm butt and strong arms like you'd get from yoga, and the weight-loss benefits of fat-burning cardio. The workouts take 
just 25–45 minutes each!

So, follow me each day as I branch out into new fitness territory.  I hope to come through it stronger and better than before!

Wish me luck!

Clean Eating Bootcamp!

Have you been thinking about trying to find healthier eating options for you or your family? For many of us this seems like an impossible task.  We all have busy schedules, families and lifestyles that keep us on the go.  Convenience foods become a easy go to and the drive through or freezer section of the local grocery store have become a weekly staple in our diets.  As a busy, working mom of 3 I know all to well about the junk food rut.  But after changing how we eat and planning ahead I am happy to see my kids making better food choices and my husband and I have lost over 50 pounds combined.  I am so excited to share a jump start clean eating boot camp with all of you.  I will give you all the great tasting, clean recipes and a grocery list.  You just need to commit that you can do anything for  10 days.  I promise you will feel better and be ready to continue on with a new healthy
outlook on food!  Just leave me a comment if you would like more information on joining the
challenge group or if you have questions.  I would love to have you join us!

Make a healthy choice today!
