Moroccan Chickpea and Sweet Potato Stew


So, my mom's friends got me a calendar for Christmas and it has recipe on it for almost every day. It wasn't advertised as vegetarian recipes but so far they all have been!


I've made five or six of their recipes and they've all been great. They have a website where you can find their recipes so I'm not breaking any rules by sharing them. Here is the recipe for this amazing stew that I made last night. And here is the link for their website.

I've also made their sweet potato and black bean enchiladas, broccoli and turmeric yellow rice bowls, vegetable sushi bowl, and the lentil and grilled vegetable tacos. The enchiladas were probably my favorite.


This dish was filling and the spices make your taste buds dance. Definitely loving their recipes so far. The recipe calls for yogurt and lemon juice but I love sour cream so opted for a lactose free one and skipped the lemon juice because the bottled stuff just doesn't cut it for recipes like this.

Quinoa salad and hummus

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.
