i got the chance to feed these gorgeous, fit ladies this past weekend! Kimberly (l) & Nichola are figure competitors and group fitness instructors in addition to their respective full-time careers. busy women who make fitness a priority. i.e., my kinda’ women. they took about all the teasing they could stand from my facebook and IG pics and invited themselves over 😛 . j/k, we finally got our schedules together after trying to plan something for months. i thoroughly enjoyed cooking for them and the non-stop laughter the entire time. check out tha spread:
hummus (topped with a little EVOO, s & p) with fresh cut red, yellow, orange bell peppers, cucumbers, and those addicting pretzel crisps, the sesame variety.
of course i made burgers. you know me. i let my apple-chicken burger mix marinate over night to ensure a flavor packed patty. it’s a fam fave. also, homemade guacamole, lettuce tomato, Sweet n’ Spicy Sweet Potato Fries from my e-book accompanied the burgers. the toasted buns were sprouted grain from Alvarado Street Bakery.
yogurt bar! i thought it was a great healthy dessert idea. non-fat plain yogurt, sliced almonds, pumpkin flax granola, berries, and stevia or light agave nectar for sweetness.
breakfast and snacks for us for the next few days, yum.
thanks Kimberly!
i hope you guys can use some of these ideas for your next gathering.
also, the base recipe for my clean shrimp fried brown rice can be found here, but i added a few extra thangs the last time i made it (last week) like:
pineapple! the tropical twist was so refreshing; you’ll love it. as far as the shrimp marinade, i used Weber All Natural Boston Bay seasoning blend instead of the Mrs. Dash and only 1 tbsp of liquid aminos. try this asap.
so super bowl is upon us! and once again my husband waits two weeks before to mention hosting a party. who does that? i know it’s a big event (and annual) but it’s outta sight outta mind to me and i don’t watch ESPN. womp 😡
Q: what are you doing for the big game this year?

Food looks delish! Thankfully, my hubby is not looking to have anyone over for the Big Game. Hummus is the only thing I know for sure will be on the menu.
