Beef

If you guys haven’t gotten Gina from Skinny Taste’s latest cookbook, you need to pick it up.  It’s called One and Done and so many great and diverse recipes.  Since I had a 4 pound package of Certified Angus Beef ® brand ground beef, I went in search of a ground beef recipe in her cookbook. The first recipe that caught my eye was her Beef...

I’ve been hearing about Orange Theory all over Instagram, Facebook, etc.  Many of my local friends go to.  But I’ve never tried it out before, because frankly, I thought it would be over my skill level and it seemed really intense.  But last weekend as I was laying in bed scrolling through IG, there was an ad on my feed – “try us for free!” ...

Every time I make chia pudding I am reminded how much I love it.  Just remember 3 tablespoons chia seeds per one cup of liquid.

While we had steak growing up, I never cooked it much.  Um, let’s just...

I didn’t do a true meal plan this week, because I knew I had plenty of food in my house to make the week work.  Especially after I found six bags of different types of frozen chicken.  I said on my Instagram page that if anyone was in the NW suburbs and saw me looking at chicken in the discount meat pin, they had full...

I had forgotten how much I love this breakfast baked potato –...

Not shockingly, if you work the Weight Watcher program, it actually works. 😀  I had my planned splurges, which included a giant 20 point lunch on Monday with my Mom and sister, but I balanced it out with a low point breakfast and dinner.  I only went to the gym twice, but I got 10k steps every day except one.  I limited my wine intake...
