Roasted Garlic Brussels Sprouts and Asparagus

Hi everyone!


     I drove over to Fresh&Easy after my hair appointment today.  I wanted to purchase a few items I could prepare the night before for my lunches as well as something that could double as a dinner dish for work.  I saw some brussels sprouts and asparagus.  Roasting it will be - yum!  I have wanted to try some brussels sprouts topped with hemp seeds for a while now; I was extremely excited to roast these brussels!!


{you can find Hemp Seeds at Whole Foods}



Enjoy!

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!

May 30 Day Challenge

Hi everyone!!


     I just finished Week 1 Day 1 of the May 30 Day BodyRock Challenge!!  It feels sooo good!!  


{Week 1 Day 1 HERE}


     The issues I seemed to face were writing my scores down and transitioning from one workout to the next within the 10 seconds rest.  I felt as if I was aimlessly jumping around during the first circuit.  Once I found where I liked to do each move the following circuits went more smoothly.  


     I mixed the Intermediate Level Bodyweight Only Fit Test Video with the Intermediate Level with Equipment Fit Test Video.  I completed the 4 exercises with 50 seconds on and 10 seconds off 3 times through or 3 circuits.  {A circuit is 1 set of the 4 exercises.} Be sure to set the timer to allow 12 intervals, if you set less the gymboss will turn off and you will have to stop working out to turn it on again.  I followed the workout with BodyRock Flow.  

{Purchase Gymboss HERE}

{As you can see I initially set 3 intervals, what was I thinking ... ughh}

TIP: Set 10 seconds rest FIRST to allow time to situate yourself for the first workout.
