This 20 minute total body workout is designed to do 2 things:

1.) Make you sweat
2.) Make fat cry

There are a few other advantages to this workout such as only needing one pair of dumbbells and a small amount of space, but the main idea is to burn as many calories as possible in a short amount of time. 

If you have never experienced the world of dumbbell of complexes, this is going to be quite a treat for you.

Who doesn't love a good fiesta in the morning?!?!

If you are any thing like me, you probably have a few go to recipes you tend to eat for breakfast over and over and over again.

Bacon and eggs. 

Oatmeal.

Some sort of omelette creation.

Or any number of the other amazing breakfast foods that are out there. 

However, every once in a while, I want something a little bit different to spice up my breakfast menu.

That's where this super simple breakfast casserole comes into play. 

I'm a huge, huge fan of taco salads. They are definitely one of my all time favorite lunches. I do still enjoy a good old grilled chicken salad too, but there is just something about a taco salad that makes it seem a little more exciting. 

It's like a lunch fiesta and I love to party!

A few years ago I was making taco meat for my salads and I actually flipped the seasoning packet over to look at the ingredients. I was slightly horrified. 

Monosodium glutamate (MSG). Soybean oil (inflammatory fats). And enough sodium to instantly raise my blood pressure a few points (slight exaggeration, but not by much).

I had been using these seasoning packets my whole life and never really bothered to think about this. As soon as I saw all the crap that goes into one of these packets, I set out to find a better solution. 

Do you like chocolate?
Awesome, me too!
Do you like bananas?
Sweet. This is going well!
Do you like quick easy breakfast ideas that are healthy, delicious, and perfect for a post work-out meal?
Great! 
Did we just become best friends? YEP!

One of the single biggest obstacles people always talk to me about in terms of staying consistent with eating healthy is time. They get rushed in the morning and don't have time to make anything healthy. They didn't meal prep enough for the week and get caught having to eat out for lunch and dinner. Or they are just simply drained after a hard day of work and don't want to cook anything. 

If this isn't the perfect time of year to bust out a good chili recipe then I don't know when is. Snow and ice are everywhere, the temperatures are frigid, and driving around town has been an absolute nightmare. We might as well enjoy a nice hot bowl of chili!

Well isn't this exciting!

The Polar Vortex teamed up with Snowmageddon has forced schools and businesses to close for 4 straight days. I can't remember this ever happening before. On top of that, we have Amber Alerts going out telling us to turn DOWN our heat. I completely understand the situation, but it's still rather insane and completely ironic.

Oh well, what can you do?

You can workout inside is what you can do!

I have created another body weight only workout that you can do in the comfort of your very own freezing home.

Let's get into the details.
