5 star reservations

Lately I have really been enjoying cooking again, well I mean cooking like a "normal person" and not figure prep. I still like to create options that are healthy and make healthy substitutions. What's really great is that my head isn't as wrapped around sugar, carbs, fat and calories. I am trying to eat to perform (yes, you are hearing the 'junk food bandit' say this). I made several healthy options for the upcoming week and then one splurge item, I have even taken pictures for you! See below:


This was dinner the other night, something I call Cuban Mahi Mahi Tacos


Here is something I prepped for the week. It is a garbanzo bean salad with tomatoes, corn, red onion, green beans, feta and a mexican vinaigrette. The tomatoes, corn and onion are from a friends garden - yummo!


This is also something I prepped for tomorrows lunch. It is a green salad with red onion, beets, goat cheese and walnuts. The beets are from a co-workers garden, cooked and peeled 'em myself!


Dinner cooking in the crock pot. Healthy four bean turkey chili (and you guessed it - the veggies are from a co-workers garden)


Here's the splurge... Southern style peach cobbler. I picked these Sunset Peaches up at Greenbluff and also put a handful of Ginger Gold Apple in there (also picked up at Greenbluff). This is just going in the oven and will be ready in 45 minutes - NOM NOM!

About Me

My photo
I have been athletic ALL of my life, I think at this point it would be safe to say its in my DNA. I have played many competitive sports (volleyball, basketball, track), have played recreationally (soccer, softball) and have been working out since I was in 4th grade. I started lifting in 7th grade - yes, was even starting to learn the full on olympic lifts. I now enjoy running, hiking, skiing, hangin out at the lake and just being active. I have run a couple of marathons, and recently competed in my first figure show. I am not sure what the future holds for me with regards to my "exercise adventures" but I look forward to finding out...
