These Breakfast Burrito Bowls are the perfect meal prep recipe for when you need something quick and inexpensive. Theses come out to less than $1.70 per meal (not including seasoning or olive oil since most people have that already). Make this for a quick breakfast or lunch during the week to make eating healthy a no-brainer.  Start out by making a batch of my Roasted Potatoes. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Peel and dice your potatoes into evenly sized 1″ pieces. Mix with the 1 tbsp of olive oil and your seasonings of choice. I used 1/2 tbsp Fresh Jax Toasted Onion Seasoning.Read More →

A common myth of meal prepping is that it is expensive. But this isn’t true! With a little bit of planning, you can easily find recipes that won’t break the bank. Take this one for example! This Chicken Enchilada Skillet recipe will cost you $2.50 per meal or less. To be honest you probably have some of the ingredients in your kitchen already, which would bring down the cost a lot. For example, this meal prep cost me $1.50 per meal, and I made 5 meals! Now onto the recipe… Start out by adding the chicken broth and chili powder to a large skillet withRead More →

Chili is one of my favorite winter meals. There’s something so comforting about a warm bowl of chili. The only thing I don’t like about it is that some recipes require tons of prep work and hours of cooking on the stove. While I don’t mind this every once in a while, I much prefer recipes that are quick to whip up and require very little prep work. That is why I created this super easy Crockpot turkey chili recipe! About 10 minutes of prep work and you’re done! Let the Crockpot do all of the hard work for you! Start out by peeling andRead More →

I absolutely love traditional brown sugar glazed sweet potatoes. They’re the perfect holiday treat. But their nutritional profile just isn’t something that is worth it to be all of the time. That is why I decided to make a more macro friendly, “skinny” version that is still full of flavor but not of calories. Start out by preheating the oven to 450 and lining a baking sheet with either a silicone baking mat or sprayed tin foil. Next peel and chop your sweet potatoes into 1″ cubes and place in a bowl. In another small bowl mix your melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt andRead More →

However I thought it was time for an upgrade. After doing a lot of research I ended up going with the Polar Ignite watch and I couldn’t be happier! Here is my full review.  Design The Polar Ignite has a really sleek design. It has a regular watch band that you can get in many different colors, plus a round watch face. What I loved is that even though it has aRead More →

Anytime I can make an entire recipe in just one pot, that’s win in my book. I’ve definitely been known to use almost every pot and pan in the house when making a meal (just ask my husband!). This Instant Pot Bruschetta Chicken is healthy, easy to make, and is ready in under 20 minutes all in one pot. That’s triple win for me!

Anybody who has tried to change their weight has probably heard at some point in their life that the scale lies because “muscle weighs more than fat”. Is this true? Should you ditch your scale for good? Let me break it down for you… Fat vs. Muscle The saying that “muscle weighs more than fat” isn’t entirely true. I mean 1 pound is 1 pound no matter if its 1lb of feathers or 1lb of rocks. So its impossible for 1lb of muscle to actually be heavier than 1lb of fat. However the saying still has some truth behind it. What the saying really means isRead More →
