Healthy Lifestyle on the Rise!

-

Week one just about down and the challenge is in full effect as we approach week two. How has your healthy life been treating you?
As for me, I have experienced a little rough patch with my daily scheduling. While I have been eating super healthy and clean I have to remember to actually eat.  I have been accomplishing like every task and goal as Super Mom and even in my professional life dotting I’s and crossing T’s. All good things, but I must remember to not only keep eating clean but eat on time! Consistency is Key!
I have enjoyed this new found freedom of choice to be healthy and fearless! I’m finding that my girls are loving the premade salads I have prepared and stored in the refrigerator for convenience. I have even made up veggie snack bags that are actually very fulfilling! I have also purchased a Ninja Nutri-Pro Blender! I’m excited about trying some smoothies and new dishes this week as I plan to incorporate some new dinner ideas in this week’s meal plan for the family.  
I have my eye on a few smoothies that the ladies have suggested and hopefully, this new blender will keep me making them daily! By the way, I just Love new gadgets and kitchen appliances, but I digress! ☺
Speaking of meal plans, I wanted to share with you all a few things. One being about a book titled The Prayfit Diet ®. I found at Dollar Tree (An American chain of discount variety stores that sells items for $1 or less.). Amazing in itself. Anywho, this book offers nourishing guides spiritually and life applications to healthy meal plans. This was like striking Gold for me! As I hope to strengthen my faith and spirituality.
The author has provided many helpful plans like complete the shopping list and recipes! Listen I know the school age lesson on the food groups is like a thing of the past but I am learning new things every day about having a healthy and well-balanced diet. This reading has given me a new outlook on trying new things and has shown me that I have become a creature of habit (especially with eating).
If you are interested check it out. I hope that it can help you on your journey as it has done for me.
Now before we part I have one last thing to share and that’s the DIY moto.
Basically, it’s just as it is written, DO IT YOURSELF!  
This week when you find that there are things coming your way that may seem challenging and they may be easier to put off on the kids or the staff at work or even to leave for a later date. DON’T! This week let’s all just put up and shut up! Let’s get the job done and feel the joy in being efficient and effective! Listen I’m doing these things with you too! We are in this together!  
The ladies of the Smoothie Crew Stella, Michele, and Jan we all are here with you in it to win it!!
Keep in touch!
Love&Blessings

Healthy & Flavorful Vegan Meals

Sometimes it can be helpful to meal prep for the week, especially if you are typically really busy. Here are some recipes that may be good for you if you want to make some good meals for yourself and your loved ones. One meal you could do is take some of the Gardein Chicken tenders and bake those. You can put them over some rice or shredded veggies with some seasoning. I usually put a lemon on the side to add some extra flavor. Another thing that I typically put lemon on is some fishless fillets by Gardein. I had this with some cauliflower rice with lemon and garlic to flavor it. I also decided to have some zucchini on the side for extra vegetables. Another meal I love making wraps with some tortilla chips. For this above, you can stuff a tortilla with cucumber, tomato, hummus, and any other veggies that could be added. This is a great meal that can be healthy but filling. I like to have tortilla chips and salsa on the side as well. The last one that I want to sha

With all of the greener lifestyles that are being adapted all around the world there are tons of questions about exactly what veganism is, and exactly how it pertains to animals. For the vast majority of people it is extremely important to realize that you simply cannot make a sudden change like shifting from eating burgers every day to living a successful vegan lifestyle overnight. However, it is also possible to make some substantial changes that are on the path to becoming vegan and showing animals the respect that you believe they deserve. Many people in the quest to treat animals better are appalled to learn that many countries use some rather unconventional animals as food; this for many people can be action that triggers their desire to change to a vegan lifestyle, however for others it is simply another reason in a long list of reasons. Many countries such as China make usage of animals such as dog for their meals and many times people are unhappy to learn this, how

Healthy Snacks

Sometimes when you are in a pinch it can be a bit of a struggle to eat healthy. Sometimes you run out of produce when you are out and may have to settle for some packaged foods. There are some better options to reach for when you want to get a snack. There are definitely some good brands out there that I love getting for when I have a busy work day. Some of these snacks can be good for dipping in salsa or hummus, or any other dip. A lot of these snacks shown also have other flavors in that kind that are also really good to try out. I love all of the products I have tried by a brand called The Daily Crave so far. I love eating these as a snack with some hummus or you could find any other dip that may go well with this. I enjoy any sort of spread that can be eaten with this and you can also top it with some veggies as well. There are also some other really good flavors including tomato basil, barbeque, salt and vinegar, and sriracha. They have veggie, lentil, and quinoa ch
