Taco Pizza

Hey!  So this past week I tried several new recipes - they were so good and everyone liked them!  I love when I can make healthy meals that everyone questions and then tells me how good it is!

Now, know that I don't really make these up by myself but I take other people's recipes and modify them to fit my family's likes and my health wants :)  I do, however, think I am getting better at coming up with my own creations!    

We love pizza here and we could eat it weekly for sure - and sometimes we do!  But having a lot of wheat too often makes my stomach feel terrible so even though I absolutely love it and will sacrifice most of the time, I can't do it all the time.  And that's where these tacos pizzas come in!  Instead of making my usual pizza crust all the time, I can use whole wheat tortillas or FlatOut wraps and then my stomach doesn't complain as much!



Ingredients:
Whole wheat or corn tortillas or FlatOut wraps
1 pound ground turkey
Taco seasoning (homemade is best!)
1 cup Shredded cheese (I used colby jack and shred it myself)
1-2 cups fresh salsa (or store bough sugar free)
Can of black beans
1 cup of frozen corn - thawed
olive oil spray

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Spray tortillas with olive oil and place directly on rack for 3-5 minutes until crisp
Brown ground turkey with taco seasoning
Top crisped tortilla with taco meat, black beans, corn, salsa and shredded cheese
Place pizzas back in the oven 10ish minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly

Slice in quarters and Enjoy with a side salad or some baby carrots for a complete meal!

Some is better than none

So sometimes life happens and we get busy and things fall to the backburner. I haven't written in 11 days!! Yikes - we have a lot to catch up on! Since last time we have been out of town and played at a really cool playground that was developed for all kids - so kids with disabilities could have the same fun as a child without a disability. It was amazing and really struck my heart since I occasionally work with kids with disabilities. I only took one real picture unfortunately, the rest were on snap chat (terra227). It also gave me the thought that they need an adult sized playground. My SIL and I had fun playing but were too big for a lot of it!  Have you ever seen an adult playground, like with old school playground equipment meant for adults?? Someone should make one! I have also started a new program!! I am so excited and am loving this program. I have done it for 5 days so far and am already seeing amazing results!! It is an MMA style workout but they throw in strength...

Homemade Spaghetti Sauce

As we sit on the plane in Florida getting ready to take off to head home, I'm already beginning to think about the coming weeks. I'm so excited to start the new Core de Force and dive into the meal plan for this program. I haven't gotten my book yet but I've heard this plan is different so I'm super excited!! I've also been reading a little bit about carb cycling. As I figure that out I'll keep you all updated too! I think it sounds great but I need to keep researching it for me and my fam. I feel like carbs are my biggest struggle so if I can find a plan where I can still eat them and not have my stomach blow up that would be amazing!!  For now I'm going to stick to the specific plan for Core de Force though. I wanted to share with you our homemade spaghetti sauce today. It's so easy to make and so good. The best part though is that you can freeze it for another time! Plus it's sugar free!! Ingredients 1½ pounds ground beef/turkey ...
