Spicy Black Bean Burger with Lime

Craig always gets to eat vegan burgers or black bean burgers when ever we go out to eat or he will pick them up in the grocery store. Well for me, I can't eat them because they either have soy or gluten or another food item that I am allergic too. I never get to try them!

Pour the flour from the blender, and add all the liquid; Almond milk, honey, and coconut oil. Blend again for a few minutes until everything is blended.  Transfer your bread mix into the prepared bread pan, and if ...

Finding Time

This week I completed 5 day's of working out for 25 minutes a day, and I lost -4 lbs this week! Have you ever just sat there to ponder about workout and making a healthy changes to your life? But you always come up with "I have no time". Let me share with you about my 25 minute program that you can complete in 5 days a week. It is so perfect because its only 25 minutes long. Now, I know with your busy schedule you can find 25 minutes to complete your workout. You could probably do this at lunch. Now, if you completed this at work you would probably have to go back to work all sweaty. LOL not the ideal way to return to work. But if you needed too in order to work on yourself...you could. You could probably find a coworker or two to join you.  Let's face it your health is not going to get any better with you dreaming about how you can change and never taking the steps to change. Mr. Disease does not show up and say "I see that you are busy I'll come ...
