Gluten Free Spaghetti

If you haven't tried spaghetti squash, I'm here to tell you it is delicious and so easy to make. 
This meal has enough flavor to satisfy even the most skeptical diner. Yes, even my boyfriend loved it...he said it tastes just like pasta! 

First, chop your spaghetti squash in half--careful its very tough! 
Place face down onto a baking sheet with a bit of oil or butter. Cover with foil and bake at 365 for 45 minutes. If you oven cooks hotter, than check as you go. I wanted to leave it in as long as possible to let the squash caramelize a bit, but if left too long, the sugars can easily burn. Once cooked, the insides should easily scrape out with a fork. 




Cook and chop your chicken breast and add the chicken and squash into a pot and add your tomato sauce of choice. I used a cup of tomato vodka sauce :) Once everything is warm, serve it up over salad mix. I add salad to most dishes to be sure to get my veggies in :) This would be extra great with a bit of fresh mozzarella on top.

Enjoy!

Happy Weekend

Hello there, I hope everyone had a lovely week and is revving up for an amazing weekend! I had a full morning of meetings and interviews then a lovely late lunch at Lupe Tortilla with a skinny margarita and lettuce wrapped fajitas. I was in heaven. The patio was bustling with trays of sizzling fajitas, hand shaken margaritas, and a fire pit nearby. I might as well have been eating on the beach Once the margarita hit the table, I felt like I was instantly transported to a beach side cabana. I love me some fajitas and ritas :) This weekend my sister is coming into town for a visit. I'm so excited! Can't wait to catch up over a glass of wine. I may be fit, but wine is definitely in my diet right now. :)  Happy Weekend everyone! Enjoy yourself--you've earned it! 

Happy Good Friday

                          I hope you all are having a lovely Good Friday! Tonite I'm continuing my new job celebration at the Rooftop Lounge in Houston for a much needed date night with my man set to some bouncy and bass driven house music. Woot! I love me some good, happy, deep and soulful house.  Can't wait to dance it out. This weekend will be especially tempting for those of us on a clean eating diet, especially if you plan on hitting up Easter brunch. This would be a great time to share your goals with your family and friends so they can help keep you accountable and most importantly set some time aside to prep some healthy snacks. Keep your eye on the prize. Eat the eggs all you want, just take it easy on the cadbury eggs and waffles at Easter Brunch ;) You'll thank yourself later.  Check out today's workout below. Set some time aside for yourself this weekend and get moving! What ...
