Chicken Sausage & Veggie Pasta
This was a super quick meal that will save you time (fast!) and worry (low calorie dinner!) during the week. It came together and was on the table in less than 30 minutes. And it was SO good…my friend’s girls…
Spicy Roasted Golden Beets
I have very few words to say when it comes to this recipe. Basically, this is how it went down: Washed the beets, peeled them, seasoned them, threw them in the oven, went to work out, returned to the kitchen,…

Veggie Breakfast Muffins
Whether or not you are on your own weight loss journey, you know the most important meal of the day is breakfast. Thank goodness, because it’s one of my top three favorite meals of the day (ha!). And I prefer…
Italian Turkey Sausage and Veggie Pasta
I love Italian Sausage and for some reason I had been hesitant to try turkey sausage. But recently, I was watching some of my favorite “trash” TV (please don’t ask me which show, it’s completely embarrassing and Karda-culous), and they…
