Happy Monday!!

Goodd morning!!
I have the day off work today, so naturally I slept in a little. After spending the entire day shopping yesterday, I slept like a baby last night. :)

I had an urge to bake this morning, so I decided to whip up a few muffins - my own creation. They are sugar-free, fat-free and flour-free. :)

Andddd most importantly - they are absolutely delicious!



- 1/2 cup of oats
- 1/2 cup of egg whites
- 1/2 a bananer
- 1 tsp of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Add the oats to the egg whites and drop in the banana. Next, use a mixer to mix it all together...I add some cinnamon, cardamom and a tiny bit of vanilla extract to the mix. Put them in the muffin tin and then drop the chocolate chips onto to them at the end. Bake in the oven for about 12 minutes at 400 degrees. :)

I put a pan with water on the bottom rack in the oven. I read in Tosca Reno's clean eating cookbook that it helps muffins grow nice & tall.

They were tres yummy!






Well, I'm off to the gym! I'm going to see if there's any workout classes at this new gym they opened near my house! :) Have a great day!!!

It's the weekend!!!!!

Good afternoon! What a gloomy Saturday... it's raining here in Toronto, but still it's the weekend and I don't get a lot of weekends off work, so I'll enjoy it either way. :)

I'm an early bird, but this morning I snoozed until about 10. For breakfast, I enjoyed a slice of Ezekiel bread and almond butter with half a banana sliced on top. I added three perfectly juicy strawberries to that combo. I also enjoyed a cup of coffee with a hint of skim milk. Perrrrfect!

I've been contemplating a run, but can't bring myself to run in the rain. I'm going to hit up the treadmill at the gym instead.

Now, something to think about...I picked up a Mo's Bacon Bar chocolate bar at the grocery store yesterday and it's been running through my mind ever since.

I have NEVER contemplated a chocolate and bacon mix, but hey it exists so there must be something to it, right? What do you think, has anyone tried this?

Off to the gym! I'll post later after I give this chocolate a try! ;)
