Cucumber and Tomato Salad

Real talk, I'm not a big veggie eater.
Especially before I started being healthier.

I used to think that in order to be healthy I just meant you had to have salads all day everyday.
but the thing was I just never got creative with my vegetables! I never tried new recipes.

Today I'm on day 2 of my 3-day cleanse. And I have to share one of my favorite recipes from the dinner list. Because honestly I could eat this salad all the time

Cucumber tomato salad
Ingredients
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 medium cucumber, cubed
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Directions
Combine the vinegar, lemon juice and oil in a small bowl mix up and set aside. combine the remaining ingredients in a large bowl mix well and drizzle with dressing. Toss it gently and enjoy!

No Bake Super Cookie

Anyone else struggle with after school snacks? My kids, they LOVE junk. They walk in the door begging for candy, chips, cookies. All the things they don't need. I've made it a mission of mine to provide them healthy options when they get home. Today we are mixing up an old favorite &&& we even put a spin on it! No Bake Cookies, make with my supershake (Shakeology). We did vanilla & chocolate because my oldest is just like me; NOT a chocolate eater. So he has peanut butter flavor. These boys are gonna go nutsssss for these. I LOVE this option because its sweet, so to them its a treat. But it has the vitamins and nutrients from my supershake to help fuel their body (it acts like 7 salads) so #momwin I don't feel guilty packing this in their lunch, letting them grab a couple as they run and play. No Bake Super Cookie Ingredients: 2 scoops chocolate Shakeology OR vanilla Shakeology 1 cup oats 1 cup Peanut Butter 1/2 cup honey 1/2 cup coconut o...

100 days for me.

100 days. It seems so long, but goes by so quick when you're living it. 100 days ago I made a commitment to a 100 day program. Not just for the results, but for me. I committed to showing up every single day doing the best I could. To give to my health & happiness. My goal through the 100 days was just that; to be happy, find my happy & take care of me. You see, so many times people start a fitness journey because they want to lose weight. They focus on the scale, their jean size, the pain points they feel when they look in the mirror. They say yes because they want results, but give up before they get there. But progress takes time. Results take hard work. It means showing up day in and day out. It means being patient. Motivation wont keep you going. When life gets hard; you're tired, kids need you, your routine gets thrown off the first person you give up on is you. You have to find a big enough reason to keep going, so on those hard days you're will...
