Still kickin

{7 mile run on the indoor track + 60 minutes Turbo Kick}

Life is good.  I wasn't sure I wanted to continue doing this blog.  I feel too boring.  But, I find its therapeutic for me to talk about my passion for exercise and food.

I've realized how much I absolutely love veggies in the past few months.  I have become an addict.  Broccoli, asparagus, eggplant, zucchini, mushrooms (are those a veggie?), corn, beans, peas, cauliflower, onions, carrots, sprouts, green and red peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, spaghetti squash, spinach, potatoes (how I love thee, Idaho), avacado (probably not considered a veggie to others), celery...ah, the list goes on forever.  I do hate beets.   My fridge was full to the max last Friday with tons of veggies and I have eaten them all.  I must go shopping, again. 

Today's lunch was delish....homemade healthy Primavera.
Sauted onion, garlic & mushrooms in 1 TBSP olive oil.  Added green peppers, asparagus, zucchini, broccoli, green peppers, tomatoes & peas until they had cooked through.  Then I added cooked whole wheat pasta.  Put that deliciousness into a bowl and put 1/2 TBSP of parmesan cheese on top.  YUMMMM!  I was satisfied, and my tummy was full and it felt oh-so-good.  Lotsa fiber, don'tchya know!!
















Tomorrow I start my Turbo Kick classes, and I am very much excited!
