Banana Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins

       Banana Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins

                           (21 Day Fix friendly, Gluten-Free, Vegetarian)



I don't know about you, but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE banana muffins, banana bread, banana pudding cake...well I think you get the picture. Unfortunately, none of the traditional recipes for these goodies are very weight loss friendly. WHAMP, WHAMP :(

Imagine my surprise when I purchased the Fixate cookbook and low and behold there was a recipe for Banana Apple Muffins, which are not only weight loss friendly, but Gluten Free and Vegan!!! HELL YEAH! 

I personally wasn't feelin' the apple part and since I'm always looking for ways to get more vegetables in my diet, and sneak them into the fam's meals too, I changed the recipe up just a little by tossing the apples out and adding zucchini instead (stop with the faces it's de-lish remember I hate veggies, so if you could taste the zucchini it would be a "No deal").

THE BEST CHICKEN MARINADE RECIPE

                            THE BEST CHICKEN MARINADE RECIPE EVER


Who knew chicken could taste this good? You gotta try this D-lish & easy to make chicken marinade from blogger MomOnTimeout it is not only easy to make but OMG the taste is off the chain in yummy goodness!!! 

When you're trying to eat healthy or healthier there is a lot of boneless, skinless chicken involved or there is for me anyway, so after a while it can get a little bit difficult to come up with something new to give the chicken a little extra somethin', somethin' without jacking up the calories. This marinade recipe gives the chicken an awesome new flavor without adding an awesome amount of unwanted calories and fat. Check it out!
THE BEST CHICKEN MARINADE RECIPE
low calorie recipes, 21 day fix, shakeology, fitness
TO PURCHASE THE 21 DAY FIX/SHAKEOLOGY


*  6 boneless, skinless chicken breast or 3 1/2 pounds of chicken.
*  2 tsp each garlic powder and Rosemary, dried.
*  1/2 cup Balsamic vinegar (or other vinegar)

CLICK HERE
*  1/4 cup Soy sauce
*  1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
*  3/4 cup Brown sugar                                                     
*  2 tbsp Dijon or spicy brown mustard.
*  1/8 cup Lemon juice.
*  1 tsp Black Pepper.
*  2 tsp Salt.
*  1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil.



PREPARATION
🌺mix all the ingredients together(except the chicken).

 Then place the washed chicken breast into the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. You could mix it up and let it sit overnight or make it the same day the longer it sits the better the taste.

🌺preheat an oven to 350°, remove the chicken from the marinade and place on a baking sheet or in a casserole dish, bake for 30 minutes on one side and turn the chicken and bake for 30 minutes more on the other side. You can take some of the marinade and place it over the top of the chicken to give it a crispier taste or you can take the marinade and place it in a sauce pan on low to medium heat reduce it down and make a sauce to pour on the chicken once it has completed cooking. Either way it tastes awesome! Give it a try and let me know what you think and share this post with a friend!!!

21 Day Fix Quick and Easy Side Dish-SAUTÉ CABBAGE

If you follow me at all then you know 2 things I'm a fitness addict and I hate vegetables.

I became a fitness addict during my weight loss journey (I've lost over 150 lbs & kept it off for 6 yrs), so the hating vegetable part has been a real struggle when it comes to my diet/nutrition. I've been trying to be more adventurous and try more vegetables plus, add at least 1 or 2 to every meal. The problem now is I do like more of a variety of vegetables, but I don't like any of them raw so quick fix recipes like this one are a God send to me. Give it a try and let me know what you think!
21 Day Fix, Shakeology, get healthy, clean eating, foodie
INGREDIENTS

  • 1 small head of cabbage shredded or 1 small bag of Cole Slaw mix (I do the bag of CS Mix it is much faster and easier)
  • 1 Tbsp Extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • dash of cayenne pepper
COOKING

Heat the olive oil in a  skillet over medium heat add the cabbage and then sprinkle with the salt, pepper and cayenne. Toss the cabbage frequently in the pan sauteing it, until it becomes tender (about 5-8 minutes depending on how soft you like your veggies) then remove from the heat and serve. This cabbage side dish can be stored up to a week in the fridge and it freezes well too.

21 Day Fix Turkey Meatloaf

Last night  I definitely needed, or should I say wanted, some comfort food. I had already eaten out twice in one day, which is unusual for me, so I really needed to act like I had a brain for dinner. The compromise was I still had meatloaf for dinner, but a healthy version.  Just let me say it was freaking awesome!

The recipe is from the 21DFX meal plan, but the topping is my own concoction. I did away with the traditional ketchup topping and made my own version with Adobe peppers in adobo sauce & it takes meatloaf to a whole other level!! 

Losing weight isn't ever going to be easy, but there are tools to make it a lot easier to get the long lasting results that you want. The 21 Day Fix was instrumental in my recent 45 lb weight loss and I continue to use today. It's not a diet or a quick fix it is a lifestyle change and a choice. Let me help you get connected with the right tool for you. Choose to make today YOUR DAY and send me a message and I'll tell you all the ways that I can help you. muddlori@gmail.com
