Reset week


Alright, I've been so bad the last few days. Delicious but terrible food and cake so I need a clean eating cleanse this week.
So for my lunches I decided on chicken breast,  sweet potato, and steamed broccoli.
I baked the potatoes at 450F for 45 mins,  flip halfway through. If they're smaller they will need less time.


My boyfriend prepared the chicken for me. We went for Chinese tonight so he stole the peppers and onions from one of the dishes and placed the chicken on top. Seasoned them with olive oil, garlic, and some spices. Drizzle with some balsamic and he poured some of the beer we were sharing into the bottom as well. Bake at 350F for 30+ mins. I used my meat thermometer so I don't pay too much attention to time.

Quinoa salad and hummus

Image
I was at Costco yesterday to return some fuzzy (moldy) avocados and I wanted to pick up some hummus. On my way to the coolers I walked past their pre-mixed salads and saw this quinoa salad. I know it's more cost efficient to make it myself but I wanted something quick.

Free Workout Schedule - 1 Week

Image
This is my go-to program when I don't know what to do and when I still want results. My arms get  CARVED when I follow this program as well as my legs. I do these as circuits - meaning I do one exercise and move onto the next completing all exercises and then repeat again for as many times as I can or have time for. Aim for 2-4 rounds depending on your fitness level and time. This is a 4 day split and you can use it however fits your schedule: Day #1 - biceps, triceps, shoulders Day #2 - legs & abs Day #3 - back, chest, shoulders Day #4 - plyo & abs You can do this every day for 4 days on, 3 days off. You can do them every other day. Or you can just do it whenever you have time to do a workout! Some of the exercise do use a cable machine but you can easily swap them out for dumbbell or band exercises. Just make sure you're working the same muscles or muscle group. I love this split because it is so flexible and can work for so many people.

Black Bean Brown Rice Burgers

Image
I have tried a few veggie burger recipes and they usually crumble and don't stay together. I found this recipe and made some changes. Mostly because I like adding veggies when possible because it can be hard to eat enough in a day. Again I didn't take pictures because I was being lazy and was trying to get them done fast. I made these on Sunday morning while waiting for breakfast to be delivered (it was Indian food, a ton of calories, and soooo delicious!). These turned out fairly well but they could have used more herbs and spices. I definitely added enough garlic 😷 I started writing this so long ago that I forget the measurements! But here is an approximate recipe: 1.5 c. or 15 oz can (drained) black beans, half mashed 1 c. cooked brown rice 1 c. spinach, chopped 1/3 c. frozen corn, microwaved for a bit to half cook them 2 T of salsa 1 egg 1 c. bread crumbs half a small onion, chopped finely 1-2 cloves of garlic, chopped finely salt a
