Sometimes Life is Better with CUPCAKES ;)

mmmmm.....cupcakes......


No, no, no silly....not your junk food junky cupcake. As yummy as that sounds, this girl needs to pass on those. With these cupcakes, #21DayFix approved I may add, I can have TWO "cupcakes" in each hand!!!! SO, I saw this awesome recipe on...Pinterest!? Yes, Pinterest...ME on Pinterest? NEVER! OK, OK, GUILTY! Well, the recipe was for a breakfast-for lots of people- you know, for family get-togethers (which I totally missed the boat on when I was home in NY two weeks ago) or even for a baby shower-which one day I will have (after I meet Prince Charming) and my friends will have the rest of the day to themselves after enjoying cupcakes and mimosas. Anyway, here it is... a picture of MY cupcakes and MY rendition of the recipe I found on the one and only Pinterest...


According to the 21 Day Fix, 4 of these bad boys is ONE SERVING and counts as 1 red container (protein) and 1 green container (greens/veggies)!!! In order to prep for a few days, I made enough for 3 meals- total of 12 "cupcakes."





Here's how...
whisk together...
  • 6 eggs- (3 red containers)-organic, vegetarian fed
  • 10 brussels sprouts (2 green containers)
  • fill 1 #21DayFix green container with chopped red onion and 1/4 chopped jalapeno
IF you have a Babycakes Cupcake Maker, spray with baking spray and pour the mix in til it's about level in each section and close the lid. Let bake for about 10 minutes. Check with a fork to make sure the center is completely cooked. Pop them out and BAM!!! You can eat a serving now or save them for later. Simple and easy. #MealPrep #EatClean #DairyFree #GlutenFree

Day 5...Ultimate Reset

Image
WOW! What a much better day! Today was my first day back at work after 2 weeks off. I felt very calm and surprisingly had a great deal of energy! I was very thankful the 1st time I did the Reset that it wasn't during the school year because I experienced headaches the first few days and thought I'd be starving throughout the school day. I did have a bit of a headache though; one of those that is a lingering constant pain in the back of the right side of my head, but it may have only lasted about an hour or two. Many times throughout my days, I feel very scatter brained...this was not the case today! During my planning period and lunch break I felt very much at ease, I wasn't starting 45 different projects at the same time and was able to start and complete a tasks without a problem :) Now THIS is what I remembered feeling like the 1st time! I was in very good spirits...no crying....LOL...and had a really good day with my students and at my 2nd job where I tutor! Today...

PROUD TEACHER MOMENT.... We all know I'm a health, fitness and nutrition NUT...I mean HEY, my undergrad degree IS in Exercise Science, I AM a Beachbody Coach, I grew up as a dancer and gymnast and am now a runner, rockstar Cizer and true believer in all things Beachbody because who doesn't like to slam out their workout from their home in the mornings before work and have time to do whatever your heart desires in the evenings!! And come on...what do you expect... OF COURSE I'm going to plant little seeds throughout the day while I'm at my full time teaching job :) Many people have NO clue what they're feeding their children...the box says "low-fat" or the bottle says "100% juice," so it must be good for us and our kiddos, right??? NOT SO FAST!!! So here we are, it's day 11 of school, 9:15 AM, we're about to read a story together, and one of my kiddos was just a little off....very lethargic with quite the attitude...he forgot to bri...

Day 6...Ultimate Reset!

Image
This day has just been AWESOME! I'm feeling SO good! My positive, non-crying self is back! I actually slept very well last night which hasn't happened in a while, and I woke up extremely refreshed and ready to go this morning! I had a really good day with my students and still had a lot of energy when I headed off to my tutoring job where I work with ten more 2nd graders. Breakfast: We forgot to pick up more tempeh last night, so I made oatmeal for breakfast and added 1/2 of a green apple, 1Tbsp 100% pure maple syrup, and 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed...of course this is one of my favs :) Lunch: Microgreen Salad (on the left in the pic below) Snack: 1/2 green apple and 1 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter Dinner: (on the right in the pic below) Zucchini & Cashew Soup and Vegetable Root Medley (which was delicious...I couldn't do the beets....they kind of have the same effect on me as spinich). Today was just such a great day for me! I even had the energy to go on a 3 mile...
