My sister & I have been working out TOGETHER so much!
We started the week off right with a nice 4 mile jog & then started attending Bootcamp together! I've been going to bootcamp for a while but Elisa was previously unable to go...she gave birth so...
I love going to bootcamp with Elisa! She pushes herself really hard & it makes me push myself! No whiners! We're hard core!
My husband's food preferences don't always line up with mine, so I am always excited when I prepare a recipe that he really likes! This week's hit was Enchilada Chicken Stew and it can be found here: Enchilada Chicken Stew
Crockpot recipes are my friend. My favorite recipes are those that allow me to eat healthy & delicious food without spending a ton of time in the kitchen (or a ton of money). This is one of those recipes!
I've been having some food struggles lately & it's made me realize that I need to prepare ahead of time for "emergency situations". I can be discipled about what I eat at home & about being selective when buying groceries to eliminate unhealthy foods, but putting together meals for work hours is more difficult. At times, my schedule is very unforgiving, not even allowing for lunch breaks, but I've always managed to get by in the past by having processed food as my holdover. My go to "meal" when I couldn't take a lunch break used to be protein bars. However, now that I am on the paleo diet, I don't have an emergency go-to meal! I'd love some suggestions. I keep a few items around my office such as bananas, almonds & hard-boiled eggs, which I eat in the event of an extremely busy day, but I never have anything on me (like in my purse) for when I'm stuck in court for a long stretch of time or when I'm sitting in a deposition for six hours through lunch. My goal for the month is to find a great portable healthy snack/light meal for times when I find myself in a pinch. I need it.
