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!

Diva Legs Workout

Happy Monday Ya'll!   I hope you had a lovely weekend and you're as pumped as I am for today's workout. I absolutely could not wait to get to the gym today. After visualizing my workout and jamming to my girl Tina Turner and Beyonce, I nearly tripped over myself to get out the door with protien shaker, banana, and playlist in hand.  This is a solid leg workout for you. Its challenging and hits all areas of the leg. I definitely felt shakey and a bit giraffe-legged once I hit the weights so I threw in some pushups and pullups to let my legs recover a bit. Check it out:  But wait a second honey, we're just gettin' started! Finish off with this Tina Turner Leg Routine and Shake a tail featha!
