Here is the second installment in What I’m Eating Wednesday! Woo! I woke up late today.

Yummy Comfort Food: Italian Sausage Soup
So… its winter in Minnesota. For those of you who don’t live here, you have likely heard horror stories. Minnesota tends to have a reputation for miserable winters. What, do people think that -10 degrees isn’t pleasant or something? This year, we are short staffed at work so I get to share in the joy… Continue reading Yummy Comfort Food: Italian Sausage Soup

Spaghetti Squash + Meatballs. Do I use too much spaghetti squash?
Today, I started back on my cardio regime. I had stopped doing cardio in order to focus on weightlifting but now that I am not doing the April competition (more about that one a different day – but I am coming for the August WABDL competition!), it was time to get back in the routine.… Continue reading Spaghetti Squash + Meatballs. Do I use too much spaghetti squash?
Shrimp Scampi aka Heaven In a Bowl
Woke up this morning feeling sicker than hell – this is a very bad time to be getting sick. Who has time for that? Unfortunately after being awake for most of the night coughing I didn’t have the energy for the gym. It has been two weeks since I have lifted and I can feel… Continue reading Shrimp Scampi aka Heaven In a Bowl

It takes little to no effort to make (seriously, so easy!) so it is perfect for throwing together the night before and then portioning in ready to go containers. I have been getting a lot of requests lately for my egg bake recipe. It… Continue reading My Morning Go-To: EGG BAKE!

Have you ever planned to make deviled eggs and been so FREAKING excited to eat them that you can hardly wait while they hard boil? Well,… Continue reading Blueberry Protein Muffins
Vanilla Chocolate Chip Protein Cookies
I'll be honest, I was never a huge dessert person. Don't get me wrong - there were certain times in my life (depending on my mood) that I could easily take down an entire package of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, a whole carton of Oreos or a pint of Ben & Jerry's Karmelsutra. You know… Continue reading Vanilla Chocolate Chip Protein Cookies
Paleo Sweet Potato Chili
My blog has been so seriously neglected lately, I feel awful. Today I am recommitting myself to my blog! I just started Spring Semester and though I have only one class, it is seriously time consuming. I’m taking a composition class and get this – we have 4 different text books and 9 assignments due… Continue reading Paleo Sweet Potato Chili
Sunday Funday
Some people spend their Sunday Fundays at the bar. Maybe watching football while eating greasy, deep fried snacks. I spend mine preparing for the week ahead! (Though I won't lie - I would start every Sunday with a Bloody Mary if I could.) It isn't always easy, committing most of your Sunday to the kitchen.… Continue reading Sunday Funday
