Blackberry Cobbler-Yum!

-


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. I was having a sweet tooth craving and this came about right on time!  



BLACKBERRY COBBLER
Melt 1 stick Earth Balance 'butter' stick in a 9x12 baking pan as you bring your oven to 350 degrees.
Add in dish:  8 cups blackberries, fresh or frozen and 1 cup honey
In a separate bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups each:  all purpose flour, organic light brown sugar, almond milk.  Add 1 1/2 tsp baking powder.
Add mixture to blackberries in dish and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.  Sprinkle with cinnamon.

Serves 8






I happen to have a bag of frozen blackberries that's been sitting in my freezer for weeks now so this recipe was a great opportunity to pull them out and actually use them. I only made this for 2 people so I of course had to scale down the recipe to fit my needs.  I have to admit I was a little skeptical about this little dessert but here was my end result.  I baked mines in a oven proof bowl.  It looked a little sketchy when I pulled it out the oven but believe me it was pretty good. And makes an awesome topping for ice cream...you didn't hear that from me!
Enjoy!!

I Rocked and Rolled!!

Last Sunday I ran my first half marathon!  I ran the  Rock N Roll Latin Music Miami Beach Half Marathon. I know in my previous post I said that my first would be in January but this opportunity fell into my lap and I couldn't say no.  So I laced up my sneaks, attached my heart rate monitor and put on my bib number and ran 13.1 miles.  Ok it wasn't that simple but to say I was nervous was an understatement.  I was so nervous that I went into total denial about the whole thing.  My running mates would ask me if I was excited and I'd say yes but in my mind I would be thinking that there was no way in hell that I was running this race. I was so much in denial that I didn't book my hotel room until the night before I was supposed to head down to South Beach. After that I went to put my race gear together.  My sports bra, my "Black Girls Run" tshirt, my capris, socks, sneakers, and my ankle brace. I had my energy gels and water bottle ready to go....

Eating Right....

So I found that eating right can be so difficult. Which shouldn't be so surprising because if it was easy everyone would be doing it. But you'd think the food companies would want us all to eat right and live long prosperous lives instead of manufacturing a bunch of food with no nutritional value and potentially harmful additives.  I mean if we're all dead, who's going to eat the food? Let's take Doritos for example. No doubt there are million of these cheesy tortilla chips being gobbled tonight as people watch the Super Bowl. I couldn't help but share a little tidbit about this snack. I was at a meeting on Friday at work where we were given lunch. I opened my lunch box and found a bag of Doritos in there to my horror. I wanted to trade them for something else and found an abandoned bag of Kettle Chips. So I flipped it over and read the ingredient list. There was three things listed. Potato, vegetable oil and sea salt.  I flipped over the bag of Dorit...

Running!!!

It's been a while since I've added to my series of "Exercises I do so you don't have too....." I didn't think I tried anything that I haven't mentioned already until I started thinking about running. That's when it dawned on my that I haven't shared my new love! Running, what a great sport.  You don't need any expensive equipment. It can be done anywhere, at anytime with anyone or alone.   But let me tell you running with someone really pushes you to go faster and longer.  I run with a group of ladies from my running group Black Girls Run .  This is a phenomenal group. Met some wonderful ladies who want to stay active and fit. We meet up once or twice a week depending on our schedules. We support each other and push each other to run faster and longer than we probably would on our own.  I've really taken to running.  I never thought that I could more more than a mile. Now I'm up to 6 miles.  So if you've been thinking about go...
