Okay so I absolutely love Saturdays because I get the whole day to myself where I have no homework and my day is very relaxed. I woke up fully rested and decided that I didn't feel like leaving the apartment very much so the entire day I spent in exercise clothes and I did what I called the 100 Workout Challenge. It consists of:
100 Jumping Jacks
90 Crunches
80 Squats
70 Leg Lifts
60 Jumping Jacks
50 Crunches
40 Squats
30 Leg Lifts
20 Jumping Jacks
and a 10 minute run.
I Am so sore now because of it but I know I am building muscle and creating a healthier and stronger body!
Then for dinner I wanted to try a new Vegetarian Recipe now that I have completed 5 days to being vegetarian :) It is called Polenta with Mediterranean Vegetables!
Here we have the sliced Yellow and Green Squash...
And the sliced Eggplant and Sweet Red Bell Pepper...
Making the polenta with the broiled veggies in the back ground...
Layering the polenta, spinach, and roma tomatoes in a pan...
the finished product, straight out of the oven:) ...
A yummy helping!
After eating the dish I concluded that it was better than I expected but the recipe needs some modifications and alterations. But in all it was pretty good! Then, I was still feeling adventurous so I whipped up a "dessert" of some sort (still off sugar) which was made of:
Dates
Almond Milk
Yogurt
Ice
Frozen Banana Chunks
AND
Nutmeg
The finished product:)
Now this was a SUPER delicious, healthy, and sugar free "treat" that even my skeptical room mates LOVED!! It smells and tastes like Autumn... yummy in my healthy tummy!!!!!!
