Clean Boneless Buffalo Wings

I love boneless wings - crunchy outside, yummy sauce! But holy calories, fat and sugar (yes, from the sauces)! After some experimenting, I think this is the cleanest and most yummy solution! Bonus - the girls loved the chicken before the sauce, so I saved them plain for them and they thought it was Chick-fi-la! I am thinking this will be bomb in a wrap or on top of a salad - All around win in our house!

What you need:

• 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup of Frank's hot sauce (I didn't use as much because the girls ate them plain)
• 1 tbsp. butter, melted (optional)
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp seasoning salt
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray

What you need to do:

1. Preheat over to 400.
2. In a bowl, crack and scramble egg.
3. In a second bowl, add flour, garlic powder and seasoning salt - mix thoroughly
4. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray (I love the Target Simply Balanced Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray
5. Dip the chicken in the egg to coat.
6. Next, dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and cover evenly
7. Place coated chicken on baking pan.
8. Once complete, spray the tops with the olive oil spray (helps them to brown)
9. Bake for 10 minutes, then flip and bake for 10 more minutes
10. Optional step: Stir melted butter and franks together in a bowl and dip the baked chicken in the mixture until evenly coated - I just dipped mine in franks and left the girls plain!

Perfect to dip into Bolthouse Yogurt Ranch! Enjoy!

Shakeology Pie

It's picnic time! And I hate going anywhere empty handed! This is a great protein packed dessert to keep you on point with your goals, while getting you a little chocolate fix! I love pudding pies, but now I can have a guilt free and superfood version!

What you need:

• 1 whole wheat graham cracker pie crust
• 1 1/2 cups low fat vanilla Greek yogurt
• 2 scoops chocolate Shakeology
• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter 
• 1/2 cup vanilla unsweetened almond milk

What you need to do:

1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl (well not the crust, silly!).  Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are blended well.
2. Put the mixture into the pie crust and spread evenly.
3. Freeze for 2-3 hours before serving.  

Just because it is healthy, doesn't mean you can eat the whole pie - remember 1 serving size is 1/8 of pie. Keep refrigerated and as always ENJOY!

4 week 22 Minute Hard Corp Results

 


When I started 22 Minute Hard Corp - I admit, I was torn... After 2 years of a fitness journey could I really get good results in just 22 minutes a day? Would it be enough? And at the same time I was excited because let's face it, who wouldn't be excited about a 22 minute workout?

First of all, I fell in love with the meal plan - it is very similar to the 21 Day Fix with the awesome portion control containers, but it allowed me to eat things that I was not allowed to eat on other meal plans - like CEREAL! Yes, finally a program that included cereal ((now to just find one that includes butter lol)) I found the meal plan simple and easy to follow.

I was pleasantly surprised about the workout intensity, I could see how this could be easily modified for a beginner and it was challenging enough for someone like me ((I would say I am at an intermediate fitness level)). And I was shocked at the sweat I had going on in just 22 minutes. My favorite part was the core workout... I have been doing a ton of core workouts, but nothing like this! This worked every part of my core, front and back and my muffin top really toned up!

I am human, I had missed workouts and cheat meals along the way - nobody is perfect! I actually was hesitant to share my results because I was mad that I had put some weight back on... but the truth is, no matter where you are in your journey, it is just that a journey... there will be set backs, there will be challenges and again no one is perfect.... I faced some challenges leading up to starting this program - I had issues with anemia which made me exhausted and made it difficult to get a good workout in and my thyroid started acting up which led to weight gain - and some of it was my own fault, let's not forget the MANY cheat meals (days, okay entire week) surrounding the cruise! But I did not let these things hold me back, instead I made a plan and went for it! And I could not have done it without the support of my accountability partner and group! We motivate and inspire each other every step of the way! Join us for support, motivation and 24/7 coaching by applying below!

Berry Stuffed French Toast

One of my coaches posted stuffed French toast in a challenge group and I just had to make it! So she just used plain ricotta - but I love sweets, and with a few simple adds, I made this a clean breakfast treat! It was so simple and my girls LOVED it! I can't wait to make this for my family at the beach, I think it will be a hit!

What you need:

• French Toast (here is my clean French Toast Recipe)
• 1/4 cup part skim ricotta
• 1/2 tsp pure honey
• 1/4 tsp lemon juice
• berries, diced about 1/2 cup (I used raspberries and strawberries)

What you need to do:

1. Combine ricotta, honey and lemon juice - mix well
2. Add 1/4 cup of berries
3. Let sit overnight, covered in the fridge (not necessary but I thought the flavors would blend better)
4. Cook French toast, as directed
5. With pan still warm, add the stuffing mixture on top one slice (I used about half)
6. Top with another slice of French toast.
7. Plate and top with remainder of the fruit.
8. Enjoy!

Beat the Odds Challenge

Beat the Odds - what does that mean to you? What Odds am I talking about? I am talking about this:

• Currently, 72 percent of men and 63 percent of women are overweight or obese.
• Less than five percent of Americans currently are considered to have ideal cardiovascular health
• The odds stacked against you when you have a thyroid disorder or insulin resistance
• 60% of new mom's never return to their pre-pregnancy weight
• New research shows sugar is as addictive as drugs.
• In 2015, a research showed that only 1% of women with a BMI over 30 will ever have a normal BMI

Do any of these relate to you?

Pretty scary statistics... and just when you think the odds are stacked against you, and you feel like there is no way 'out' - I am here to tell you that these are just numbers, and you my friend can beat these... How do I know?

Well - I had a BMI over 30 and now it is 21 (which is normal), I am a new mom that is under my pre-pregnancy weight, I am a recovering sugar addict, and I have Hashimoto (a thyroid disorder that makes losing weight more difficult) SO I know how it feels to have the odds stacked against you, I know what it is like to be the underdog, and I actually had a doctor laugh at me when I talked about wanting to lose weight. But I did it - over 75 pounds lost - and I know what it will take to get you there... The right way, the healthy way, the way that will be lasting weight loss....

We will work together, daily - and you won't have to go anywhere - I will help you meal plan, find recipes that fit you and your family, I will teach you how to make this lifestyle affordable - and I want to it to be fun! So I am adding in weekly prizes to help keep you motivated and accountable!

This group is 5 weeks long - with week one being a "preseason" week, in this week you are the student, you sit back and learn all about clean eating, meal planning, water intake and all the tips and tricks I have learned for proven success... then for the next 4 weeks we dig into the program!

So if you are ready to beat the odds, if you are ready to get real results just in time for summer, and if you are ready to start leading a healthier lifestyle - then I am ready to help you... I am taking 5 new applicants into this group, apply here to reserve your spot! I can't wait to chat with you!
