I don't know about ya'll, but I'm a sucker for breakfast foods! I could literally eat breakfast for well, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I love that breakfast foods allow you to get in carbs, good fats, protein, and veggies, all in one dish.  Which is exactly what this breakfast casserole is perfect for!  

Ever need a solid dose of protein, but aren't in the mood for something heavy like meat?  This light and refreshing egg salad is one of my favorite lunches.  ​

These balsamic brussel sprouts are one of my favorite things to have when I'm craving something salty and a little bit filling for a snack, or to accompany my main course.  They are the absolute tastiest way to get in a serving of veggies each day.  So easy and can make ahead of time to warm up in the microwave throughout the week. Enjoy this recipe! 

Ingredients

• ~2 handfuls of brussel sprouts
• 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp red pepper flakes (like the stuff you put on pizza haha)

Directions

1. Preheat over to 400 degrees
2. Peel all stray outer leaves off brussel sprouts.  Cut all brussel sprouts in half.
3. Throw halved brussel sprouts in baking pan. Put coconut oil, balsamic vinegar, and minced garlic on top of brussel sprouts and toss together until sprouts are covered in ingredients.
4. Sprinkle black pepper and red pepper flakes on top.
5. Throw them in the oven, let cook for about 10 minutes.  Then, take out of oven and flip them.
6. Pop them back in the over for another 10 minutes, or until they are browned and crispy.  (I usually wait until I can smell them and check on them)

This awesome abs exercise comes from a core focused yoga sequence by Tara Stiles. What's so great about this move is that it works both the upper and lower abs.

1. Lie on your back, tucked into a ball, making sure to glue your lower back to the floor.
2. Extend your legs and arms straight into the air. Round your back as much as possible and reach for your toes.
3. Extend your legs in front of you, and arms straight behind your head. Keep your heels hovering just above the ground and lower back glued to the floor.
4. Come back into a ball and repeat for 12 total reps.
