I love when recipes are simple, packed with flavor, and make it look like you went to culinary school.  This dish was so delicious I can not wait to make it again.  I tried to lower the fat content of by reducing the  butter and adding olive oil, and also try turkey sausage instead of Italian sausage.  Make this for a dinner party or just a delish night during the week.

Spring time is finally here and it's time to enjoy the weather and get activity back into our lives!  I like to think about physical activity like I think about food by considering Variety, Balance, and Moderation.

  • Variety: Different activities help strengthen different muscles so consider the type of activities you do each day.  Biking, power walking, and running, work our heart and leg muscles, while lifting, or even gardening can work our arm muscles. Think about the activities you enjoy and try to vary them throughout your week. 
  • Balance: Since different activities benefit different parts of our bodies, think about balancing them out.  Being physically fit means improved cardiovascular endurance, muscular or bone strength, good balance, and having flexibility.  Keep this in mind when balancing out your weekly experience plans. 
  • Moderation: Know yourself and make sure to set your goals appropriately.  Some people need to more more and others can afford a day off. Consider at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity most days of the week and remember some physical activities of daily life can count towards activity.

Time for smoothies

Smoothies for breakfast are my favorite thing to enjoy in the spring/summer months. They can be light, refreshing, and make the perfect accompaniment to a balanced breakfast or snack.  
To start your smoothie off right, fill the bottom of your blender with a vegetable like kale or spinach, sometimes I will use cucumber for added fresh flavor.  Next, add your dairy which is the plain greek yogurt or milk if you would like.  Fruits can be whatever you like and consider fresh and frozen as options here.  Fresh definitely add more sweetness, and I suggest trying to put your over ripe fruits in the freezer as an icy cold smoothie is why favorite!  Experiment with all different colors to make your smoothies eye appealing.  A serving of healthy fat for added fullness could be some avocado or peanut butter.  Top with some crushed ice and water (if you used yogurt), blend and enjoy!  

​Be sure to add these ingredients to your grocery shopping list one week and enjoy the endless creations you will make.
