Busy Women Building a Business: Now Hiring Coaches
I was never a person who set out to create some big grandiose plan. I’m simple. I love my family. I love taking care of others (hence my previous life as a bartender, then as a nurse). I was content. I just wanted to get in better shape. And find a balance between the wine and the leftover kids PBJ, handful of goldfish crackers, and my love for tacos. When I started to share a little bit about the struggles of a busy life, workouts, being a momma to 3 littles, and still taking time for myself, I found that I wanted to do something bigger. I started to want…

Taco Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
Fall is here. So much squash. We have been given large amounts of squash several times in the past few weeks and we’re up to our ears in squash. Fortunately my kids eat spaghetti & meatballs with spaghetti squash (not always, but we made it work the other night). But I needed something to do with the rest of the spaghetti squash and I thought I’d take my ground turkey, a little salsa, stuff it and bake it. And it was everything I dreamed it would be and more! My husband approved. He’s not a squash eater by any means so it wasn’t easy to come up with something…

Hammer and Chisel: 60 Day Results
Results are in, y’all! And I am super proud! If you haven’t been following my journey, you may not know that I started Hammer & Chisel around Christmas time.

No meat Friday! Lenten season for us. That means no chicken, beef, pork, turkey, etc. Fish is fine. But a husband who isn’t a big fan of seafood, my options can get pretty limited.

Ingredients: 1 cup red lentils 4 c organic vegetable broth 3 celery ribs, diced 1.5 c diced carrots 1/4 c chopped yellow onion 2 garlic cloves, minced 1/2 tsp sea salt 2 tsp oregano 1 bay leaf Black pepper to taste 4 tbsp low fat Greek yogurt (optional) Directions: In a medium crockpot (sprayed with…

Fat Tuesday Jambalaya
The old bartending days. Down in Soulard. Oooh I loved working Mardi Gras! Tons of people. Lots of tips. Delicious food. You could count on me scarfing down several bowls of jambalaya during a 12 hour shift! So tonight being Fat Tuesday, I wanted to recreate the Mardi Gras taste of jambalaya I remembered but with a little bit healthier kick. We used our jalapeño cheddar elk sausage but you can use a ground turkey, a lean ground sausage, or chicken and it would be just as yummy. I hope you enjoy! Laissez les bon temps roulez! Ingredients: 1 lbs lean sausage or turkey (we used elk) 3…

Buffalo Chicken Bites (Healthier Version)
Put out the buffalo chicken beacon and I’ll be the first one there! And I feel like Super Bowl is one of the best days for all things buffalo chicken. I wanted to come up with a recipe for buffalo chicken dip that was healthier and I got the idea to make them into bites, and believe me. These turned out amazing! I hope you enjoy them as much as we did! Ingredients: 4 whole wheat tortillas, cut 2-3″ round circles out with cookie cutter or mason jar lid (I find it helps to warm the tortillas in the microwave for 20 seconds) 2 large chicken breasts, thawed 1/3 cup…
