Roasted Cumin-Lime Carrots


Hi everyone!


    While I was at the farmers market I came across purple carrots.  I have not been a fan of cooked carrots ever since I can remember.  I figured I should give them a try because not too long before I went shopping I stumbled upon a carrot recipe I wanted to try out.  The purple carrots seem to taste sweet to me and now they are a food I am going to incorporate into my meals more often.  Have you guys ever tried the purple carrots?


{I hope you like my Roasted Cumin-Lime Carrots}


     Carrot Action: Antioxidant, anticancer, protect arteries, expectorant, antiseptic, diuretic, boost immunity, antibacterial, lower blood cholesterol levels & prevent constipation. 

     Carrot Uses: Vitamin A, B, C, iron, calcium, potassium, sodium, cleanse liver, cleanse digestive system, help prevent formation of kidney stones, relieve arthritis, relieve gout, enhance mental function, decrease risk of cataracts & decrease risk of macular degeneration.

     Buying & Storing Carrots: Choose carrots without the tops because the tops draw nutrients out of the carrot {may remove the tops immediately after purchase}.  Choose firm, well-shaped carrots with no cracks.  Store unwashed in a cold & moist place for up to two weeks.


Enjoy!

PowerBlock





Hi everyone!

     What do you use for weighted exercises?  I am recently no longer using my gym membership.  I was debating about purchasing some weights.  After a little research I realized I would be spending a lot of money for a handful of weights and a stand! Yikes!  I noticed that BodyRock uses a product called PowerBlock.  I figured it was a smart investment and I opted for these.  I did not want to pay for shipping so I researched some local retail stores inventories.  Luckily I found some close by!!

I ended up purchasing the U-33 Stage 1
