Oh the Wedding Diet! Creating more energy for LIFE!

Lately, with so much on the mind... I've been posting a lot more on the go on my tumblr.com account.  Check it out sometime!!!

So, I know you've missed me here.  =)  Here are some images of what I've been eating the past few weeks:

CA Health + Longevity Institute Cooking Class- 4 soups!

Simple Home Cookin'- Grilled Salmon Salad w/ egg= Japanese B'fast for two!

Steamed talapia w/ sweet chili sauce + Steamed kale

Tamari based salmon teriyaki w/ steamed broccoli and quinoa

Can't forget dessert! @enjoycupcakes lemon gluten freeeee + a cutie!

Ok, so this bride has some tricks up her sleeve.  I downloaded the "My Fitness Pal" app on my iphone... and I am shooting to get healthy not just for the wedding, but for LIFE!  It's not about weight loss or anything like that for me.  It's for the reward of having more energy each day. 

Happy Spring!

Although I don't celebrate the Jewish high holidays myself, I certainly do appreciate some of the foods that go along with them.  I personally find that I can create any occasion to eat potato latkes.  Also, they go fantastically well with the traditional apples and honey, that are symbolic of the Jewish new year.

Here's a great, simple recipe for potato latkes, as we made them last year for a little holiday party with the girls.:

DELICIOUS!

Asian Breakfast- Egg & Veggie Stirfry over Rice

The other day, we rummaged through the fridge and decided to make a nice veggie scramble... and attempt to use the rest of the veggies in the fridge.  We almost succeeded!  Still have some tomatoes in the crisper.  But, we managed to stirfry up a nice and simple veggie dish with- cabbage, carrots, chinese broccoli and sprouts.  YUM.

AND then, there was so much leftover, that the dish made a lovely transformation into our Saturday breakfast dish!
