Welcome friends!

This is a forum to share tips, advice and ideas about nutrition, fitness and well-being. I also invite you to join me in my yoga practice at 24 Hour Fitness. It is an 1 hour vinyasa yoga class, also called "flow" yoga. The poses move fluidly, the breath linking each pose to the next. This practice will create strength, flexibilty, endurance and balance leading to a sense of wellness and mental awareness. I hope to see you there! The class schedule will be updated on the blog as it changes.

Super Easy Soup



It’s crock pot season! This is a “use what you have” creation that turned out delish so I thought I would share it with you.

Ingredients:

3 red potatoes, chopped small
1 leek, finely chopped
3 carrots, chopped
3-4 large cloves of garlic, diced
1 can white beans
1 can garlic roasted tomatoes
1 box organic chicken broth
Olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Sautee the potatoes, leek and garlic in the olive oil on medium heat until the potatoes are slightly browned
Add the sautéed vegetables along with the can of beans and tomatoes (both un-drained) and the broth to a crock pot set to low.
Let it cook, covered, all day
Serve with either shredded cheese and a few turns of freshly grated pepper or with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of pine nuts!
