I participated in an Influencer Activation Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for the Beef Checkoff. I received products to facilitate this review and a promotional item to thank me for participating. When I received an opportunity to partner with the Beef Checkoff to host a party featuring a beef recipe, I was really excited. So many people think that if you want to eat healthy, you can’t eat red meat… but that’s just not true. As long as you’re choosing lean beef, you can get tons of vitamins and nutrients without busting your calorie count for the day. This cool …

Healthy Carb-Loading Meal: Nicoise-Inspired Salad

cooking / Leave a Comment

Tomorrow, I’m going to be hiking my very first 14er (mountain with a summit that is 14,000 feet or higher). But when my friend Mike and I went hiking yesterday on a much smaller peak for about 90 minutes, I was completely wiped out. Hiking can be pretty intense! When Mike mentioned that it would probably be about a four hour hike to the top on Saturday, I realized it would probably be just about as strenuous as a full marathon. Time to carb load! Carb loading is something that a lot of runners don’t do properly – and admittedly, me loading up …

Restaurant Review: Chopt Creative Salad

Uncategorized / 9 Comments

Today was a super productive day for me – which is why I’m not writing this blog post till so late at night! But I wanted to take the opportunity to talk a little bit more about my latest obsession: chopped salads. Up until this year, I had never had a chopped salad before. The classic “chopped salad” is what a lot of steakhouses serve: iceberg lettuce, artichoke hearts, hearts of palm, avocado, blue cheese, bacon, tomato, onion, and an egg. Not so healthy, as far as salads go! However, while on the quest for a healthy meal at my …

Association for Slender Salad Eaters ‘Round the Year (A.S.S.E.R.Y.)

Uncategorized / 12 Comments

While you all were complaining about your gyms being invaded by New Year’s Resolutioners, I didn’t have that problem…. I had my own, personal workout room. Of course, the gorgeous elliptical only taunted me, since Rachel won’t still let me do cardio till next week, but I got busy with the free weights, and kicked my butt so hard that it was already sore when I woke up. Yay! But while I may be bragging about getting to use whatever weight I want whenever I wanted to use it, there is one New Year’s Resolution rant I have not yet …

Quick Tagine-Style Chicken with Green Pepper and Tomato Salad

cooking / 1 Comment

I’ve had this recipe saved for a while, and never gotten around to making it. Today I had some chicken and some cilantro that was going bad, so I thought this would be a good fit. After picking up some prunes, I was good to go.Chicken recipe notes:I used 1/2 tbsp of oil, and 6 oz chicken. I kept the rest of the recipe as-is, just cut down for one serving. Salad recipe notes:You definitely don’t need that much oil for the dressing! For one serving, I used 1/4 tbsp oil, 1/4 tbsp red wine vinegar, and 1/4 tbsp lemon …
