Thank you to all those who have given me such positive feedback already. I truly appreciate it. I have had many requests that I post recipes and fitness challenges. Your wish is my command.
I challenge each of you to complete the following workout twice this weekend:
10 push ups
20 sit ups
25 squats
20 lunges (each leg)
80 jumping jacks
60 second wall sit
Once you've completed this challenge leave a comment below on how it went!
Fun fact- if you eat an orange before your workout you will experience less soreness
The recipe I choose to feature is called Grilled Vegetable Salad with Feta. I know one of my close friends loves feta so this is for you boo boo!
What cha need:
- 1 red bell pepper cored and cut into 4 pieces
- 1 eggplant (about 1 pound), cut across into 1/4-inch rounds
- 1 medium onion, cut into 1/4-inch slices
- 2 medium zucchini (about 8 ounces each), cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices
- Olive oil cooking spray
- 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on a tray or work surface. Lightly spray both sides with olive oil cooking spray. Preheat a grill or grill pan
over a medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables in batches until both
sides are nicely charred and the vegetables are just tender, about 10
minutes for the pepper, about 8 minutes for the eggplant
and onion, and about 6 minutes for the zucchini. When the vegetables
are cool enough to handle, cut into 1/2-inch pieces and transfer to a
large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar and oregano. Pour over the vegetables and toss. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Gently stir in the tomatoes and mint. Divide the salad between 4 plates and sprinkle with the feta.
