WEEKEND........MAKE IT!

GET BACK IN GEAR!!!!!

I've been struggling with getting back in the grove since summer is almost half way over and finding some way to get it back in gear.  Like a lot of you, I have been REALLY hard on myself.  Clothes don't fit quite the same and just tired due to the lack of exercise.......
UNTIL

I get my new SHAPE Magazine and Jillian has an article in there about traveling and not totally blowing it during travel/vacation.  So, I am reading along and then I read it!!!!!!

" #10- Get back in gear.  If you do bring a few unwanted pounds home, don't beat yourself up.  The best thing you can do for your body and your mind is to resume your regular routine immediately, scheduling a workout for the day after you return. "You just had a great time of vacation." says Jillian.  "Now you need to get your butt back in gear and move it. Full throttle!"

BOOM BABY!!!!!  Get Back In Gear!!!!!

Tasty Tuesday

Quinoa crusted shrimp

 Per serving (approx. 10 shrimp, varies depending on size): 202 calories, 4g fat (1g saturated), 1g fiber, 28g protein

 Impress your guests with this amazing appetizer that’s low in fat and high in flavor. Use colored quinoa (red, white, black, or a combo) to add a bright, festive finger food to any party.
 Ingredients:
 ½ cup flour
 1 tsp salt
 ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
 ½ tsp ground cumin
 ½ tsp paprika
 ¾ tsp garlic powder
 ½ tsp onion powder
 2 eggs, beaten

 1 cup raw quinoa

 1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and de-veined

 olive or vegetable oil, for frying

  Directions:

Set up 3 bowls and a baking sheet with a rack on top. In the first bowl, thoroughly mix together the flour with the salt and all of the ground spices. The second bowl will have the beaten eggs, and the third bowl, the quinoa. For each shrimp, holding by the tail dip them in the flour mixture, eggs, and then quinoa - shaking off excess at each stage. Place on the rack on the baking sheet and set in the fridge while heating the oil. In a heavy-bottomed pot, heat 2 to 3 inches of oil over medium high heat. Fry shrimp for 3 minutes and transfer to another rack on a baking sheet. Immediately season with a bit of salt while they are hot out of the oil. Serve warm.

  Makes about 4 servings

ENJOY,

Mass Cooking.......

So, I thought I would give you an idea of what my grill could look like when I am doing Mass Cooking.  Understanding that my husband is the "Meat-Man".  He loves his meat and I am on the other end of rather have veggies ANY DAY!!!! 

I hadn't done the Mass Cooking in a while but we have a super busy week and thought this would be a good time to get started. 

Grilling-
Turkey Ham Steaks (Upper Rack)
Grilled BBQ Seasoned Chicken
Grilled Balsamic Vinegar Dressing Marinated Chicken
2 Pork Sausages
3 ears of grilled corn

Large container of Roasted veggies in the fridge.  (Great as a side, topped on a baked potato, in an omelet )

In the Kitchen-
Boiled Eggs in the fridge
Slaw made
Strawberries and Blueberries
Hummus
Carrots prepped
Bell Peppers prepped
Ingredients for salad anytime
Greek Yogurt

This is what it looks like.  It's easy and it sure does make your week a lot easier.  Give it a try!!!!  You Will Not Be Sorry!!!!!  Need some help?  E-mail me!!!!!  transformationcoachpam2013@gmail.com
