Fajita-Stuffed Chicken {Healthy Style}

Fajita-Stuffed Chicken

OHHH MY - sooooo good!!!

Trinity loved it too!!

We love trying new things and

it's a win when our daughter loves clean recipes too!

Ingredients:
3 boneless chicken breast (we learned that it needed to be cut thinner because we had to bake it in the oven too after to cook it the whole way)
2 tbsp. of extra virgin olive oil
1 diced red pepper
1 diced green pepper (can add yellow peppers too, but we didn't)
1 diced red onion
1 tsp. of sea salt
2 tsp. of chili powder
2 tsp. of cumin
2 tsp. of garlic powder (Also, ingredients for the healthy queso and guacamole is listed below)

Instructions:
Heat the olive oil in a pan over high heat.

Cook the peppers, onion, salt, pepper until soft.
Then when the veggies are cooked, put them in the healthy queso (made before hand).
Mix it well together. In another bowl, combine the chicken breasts with the salt, chili powder, cumin and garlic powder and make sure it goes all over the chicken.
Cut the chicken in half and make sure that its cut thin, but not too thin so the chicken cooks properly. Fill the chicken with the queso and veggie mixture.Cook the chicken until fully cooked (5-7 minutes) If you are silly like us, you’ll have to bake it too! Haha! Serve with homemade salsa and homemade guacamole! YUM!

Clean Queso Dip!

Ingredients:

1/2 tsp. of extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp. of minced garlic

2 tbsp. of cornstarch

1 and 1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk (we used vanilla cause that's what we use for our Shakeology)

Use the peppers and onions you sauteed before to put in the dip! (If you want to use the dip for chips, then dice the peppers and onions instead of leaving them longer)

1 tbsp. of wheat flour

1/2 tsp. of chili powder

1/2 tsp. of onion powder

1/2 tsp. of cumin

1/4 tsp. of sea salt

1/8 tsp. of black pepper

1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup of shredded pepper jack cheese

Instructions:
1.) Heat a saucepan over medium/low heat. Add the oil and garlic and cook until the garlic is brown. Usually only takes a minute.
2.) Stir the cornstarch into a 1/4 cup of the almond milk and set aside.
3.) Add the peppers and onions and cook for a couple minutes until they are heated. Sprinkle the wheat flour over the peppers/onions and stir for a minute.
4.) Turn the heat up to medium/high and stir in the rest of the almond milk with the cornstarch mixture made in step 2. Stir for 2-4 minutes until it is thickened.
5.) Turn the heat back to medium/low and stir in the cumin, chili powder, onion powder, salt, black peppers and cheeses. Then mix it til it's smooth.

My WHY

As I sit here, write this and tell you MY WHY, I am crying, not because I am sad, but because I am happy. I want you to think to yourself when reading this what your WHY is. Because when you find your WHY, you find everything in your power to fight for that WHY, you do what others can’t because your WHY is so strong. You live and breath for that WHY. So here it goes..

This is my WHY. My darling daughter, Trinity. She has given me the most amazing experiences at life that anyone could ever imagine. Before she was born, I heard her heart beat, I felt her kicks, and I felt her move all around in my belly. It was mind blowing. I was going to care and nurture a new human being and hell, I didn’t know what to do. But that is what happens, you learn how to take care of that blessing. You do everything you can to take care of that precious jewel that was given to you. You ask questions, you read the internet, you go above everything else and give that baby everything that you can possibly think of. You do all of this because that blessing is your heart, your soul, your everything and your WHY!

My WHY is growing fast and she is learning that Mommy isn’t around enough. She is seeing Mommy work Monday through Sunday, then come home and work some more because it’s what she has to do. She works really hard to make sure her WHY lives the best life. It’s not about the money, it’s not about the mansion, it’s not about a fancy car, it’s about TIME. Time with my WHY, time with her so she can learn, time with her to see her laugh, smile and have fun. Time with her to show her that life is precious and we need to live every minute of it. I am sacrificing my time, my energy, my happiness just so my WHY can see that Mommy will give her the world. My WHY will not have a broken home. My WHY will not have to cry herself to sleep because she isn’t with her Mommy. My WHY will not have to move every other month. My WHY will not have to stay up at night and wonder what tomorrow will be like. My WHY will not be ashamed of herself.

BUT my WHY will have structure. My WHY will have a home to live in. MY why will have her parents to take care of her. My WHY will have good food on the table. My WHY will have a heart full of love. My WHY will have a big smile on her face, always. My WHY will have the best life she can possibly have because her Mommy and Daddy work hard to give her that. We only have this one life, and we need to treasure it. Some of us are blessed with our WHY including myself, some of us don’t know what are WHY is, and some of us don’t even think about our WHY. When your WHY is so big though, you sacrifice now that way you don’t have to wish you started a long time ago. Working 4 jobs won’t last long because I am building a life of freedom for my WHY. My WHY will have her Mommy home, have weekends with her Mommy and have TIME with her Mommy every day here soon.

When you figure out your WHY though, you figure out why your life is worth living. Why you want to make your dreams become reality, why you work your ass off, why you strive to be better, why you go above and beyond to get things done, why you fight so hard, why you have sleepless nights, why you are brave and fearless. Seriously, think about your WHY. When it brings tears to your eyes, you know that it’s your WHY. When you find your WHY, don't ever give up on it.

Insanity Max 30 Results

So excited to share with you my coach, Sarah’s results from Insanity Max 30 results (Oh and it’s on promotion right now – say what?) I am so glad to know her, grow my business with her, be on her team, have wine nights, hold each other accountable, share my life with her, and be girl bosses together!!! I probably would have never got to know her without this amazing coaching opportunity she gave me. Love you girl!!! 😘 #wcw

She is one hot momma who got results with determination and consistency. Yes, some people want to look like her before picture and that is ok! She looks FABULOUS in both. But in her second photo, she is healthy, fit, happy, and confident in her skin. She followed her meal plan about 80% of the time, drank her Shakeology each day, and did her workouts!!! BAM, she is FIT! 💪🏼

Want to know something else? She only lost 4 pounds during this program, but she didn’t have a drastic weight loss because it doesn’t work, it’s because she was already fairly small, a size 0 and you don’t have that much weight to drop. She is healthy and toned. She didn’t need to lose weight, she has been “skinny” her whole life, she did it to be healthy and fit for herself and her family. ❤️

If you are looking to GET HEALTHY, LOSE WEIGHT, TONE UP, or GET FIT, let’s chat!!! I would love for you to join me in my challenge group starting May 9th!! Summer is coming and our bikinis need to fit!!
