21-Day Purification Program Start Here!!

Hi bloggers!  

My supplements came in, so now I am ready to start my cleanse!!!!

I'm super excited and I bought all the groceries to go along with it..

Isn't that soo pretty! 

For the first 10 days, you can not eat meat. Your diet will consist of fruit and veggies, wild rice, quinoa, and the SP Complete Shake.

Also, you should aim to eat twice as many veggies as you do fruit.

Since this is my first time trying this cleanse, I am going to post my recipes as I go. 

You may want to wait to follow along until I'm half way done.

I am doing the SP Complete Cleanse as recommended by Dr. Nick. 

I am on it because I have some issues with my small intestine and I also have a caffeine problem (whoops)

There are many health benefits and you can find them all on their website. 

And here is a link to the cleanse pamphlet

I started by cutting a little fruit.

I hope you enjoy reading and following along with me! 

If you are in the Houston area; you can visit Dr. Nick Chretien at Energee Spine Care

He is amazing and does great soft tissue work.

You can also purchase the products there from him.

Also, for daily recipes, inspiration, and workouts; you can follow me on Instagram!

And of course, if you have any questions, feel free to email me or leave a comment!!

Coq A Reisling

SO here the story:

After bootcamp, I went to the grocery store to do a bit of shopping.

On my way home, Nick calls and tells me the power is out at the whole complex..

SOooo change of plans, we went and got crawfish and went to a pool hall! 

I would have had photos, but we were reserving the battery on our phones.. 

Have you ever had to put groceries away by candlelight? ha 

Here is the dish I made the next day. 

I adapted this recipe from http://simply-delicious-food.com/2013/06/26/nigel-slaters-coq-au-riesling/ 

Ingredients

• 1/2 stick of butter
• splash of olive oil
• 2 onions, finely chopped
• i package of bacon/pancetta, sliced into thin strips
• 4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
• 8 chicken pieces on the bone 
• i package portabella mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cups Riesling (or dry white wine of your choice)
• 1 cup cream
• 2 tbs corn starch
• salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

Melt the butter and oil together in a large pan.

Brown the chicken pieces all over and remove from the pan.

Add the onions and bacon and allow to fry until the onions are soft and translucent and the bacon has rendered it’s fat.

Add the garlic and allow to saute for another 30 seconds before removing the mixture from the pan (leaving the fat behind).

Add the mushrooms and allow to fry for 5 minutes.

Add the onion and bacon mixture along with the browned chicken back to the pan.

Pour in the wine and allow to come up to a boil. Turn down the heat and cover. Allow to simmer for 15-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Uncover, turn up the heat and add the cream. Allow to cook for another 10 minutes.

If the you would like thicker sauce, mix in 2 tbs of cornstarch.

Season to taste.

Serve with rice or bread; or both! 

Spring is HERE!

Hey blogger! 

Happy Spring!!  We have been having great, bright weather in Houston! 

I have already been to the pool 3 times this week. 

I started my 4 week boot camp on Monday and I love it! 

I have never been so sore, but your workout is def what you make it. 

I purchased my bootcamp on Groupon. There were about 5 to choose from.

I love that Groupon has so much on it and the prices are about 50% off!

I am doing Texas FIT Chicks! 

I will post my before and after pictures when my 4 weeks is over. 

Heres a little inspiration to jump start your bikini body!!

Love your life and love each other!!
