Mimi's Fitness and Things!

What do you mean eating clean Miriam? I don't eat off the floor or dig threw the dumpsters for dinner!   Well that's not what I mean by clean eating.  Eating clean is the new catchphrase that is used to describe a person who eats natural whole food.  It's sad that our society must categorize food into areas such as real food and fake food, or like some people like to call Frakenfood.  That's food that's put together in a lab somewhere.  Clean eating also scares people because they think it means eating plain boring food with no flavor. But that couldn't be further from the truth. Eating clean simply means getting your food source from it's most natural source.  So dinner every night doesn't have to be bland chicken breast with broccoli and brown rice.  You can still eat hamburgers and fries! No I'm not joking. Only thing is you'll have to get lean meat and eat it on whole wheat bread. And cut up some sweet potatoes to make into fries.  Presto! 

Here's another recipe that I found online and tried for myself! This one comes from the Toneitup.com girls. Karena and Katerina.  I mentioned these girls and their site back in May .  I love this website and these trainers.Why? Because not only are they uplifting and motivating their website is the bomb. You can find all sorts of healthy and clean recipe, workout routines and beauty tips on their site. On Twitter and Facebook  they are always inspiring you to workout and giving out challenges to do throughout the day.  Well when they posted this recipe I just had to try it.
