Easy Bruschetta Egg on Toast

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and I often don't have time and i'm not usually hungry. So I often have my meal replacement shake but sometimes I am hungry and sticking with a clean healthy diet can be a challenge. I do love food. I love spices and bold flavors so bland flavors will not cut it for me! So the other morning I decided to spice things up while not taking to much time in the kitchen. When my son is in school is the only time I really have to run errands and get most of my work done uninterrupted.

I toasted a piece of fresh bread I picked up from Whole Foods. I usually get their Ancient Grain bread but they didn't have it this week so I picked up their Onion Grain and it was yummy! While it was toasting I made some bruschetta. I sliced up 4 campari tomatoes (so my mom could have some too!) 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 2 cloves minced garlic, and mixed in a bowl with a dash of salt and fresh ground pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.  I heated up a pan on medium high heat and gave a light spray of cooking oil and cooked an egg over medium (one for each of us.) Then I placed the toast on a plate, topped it with my egg and spooned the bruschetta on top and dug in! My mouth was doing a happy dance and my mom was making all sorts of "mmmm" sounds from the dining room. Fresh, simple and a way to change up your basic breakfast.

Health and Fitness Journal #GetFit

I am one of those people who as much as I love the digital world we live in, I love journals. It's an obsession really. I have more journals than I should probably admit to. When it comes to fitness journals however, I just never found one that quite fit to what I was looking for. I wanted something that fit with my beachbody programs also. I am currently doing the PiYo program, so I wanted the daily food log, exercise log, water intake checklist. Another huge part of me continue to commit to my fitness, are the challenge groups. I love challenge groups, they keep me accountable. It's one of the reasons I became coach, to keep myself accountable and to help other's stay accountable so they could obtain their goals. Seeing people reach their goals is extremely rewarding. So I set off to create a health and fitness journal that was simple but included all of these things. Small enough to carry around. Sleek but not girly so anyone could use it and most importantly not twenty dollars like the ones you find at your local target. So I created the #GetFit Health and Fitness Journal, available through amazon.com I hope it helps like minded souls on their fitness journey as well!

Keep on keeping on my friends.
