About Me

My photo
I'm on a mission: Discover the best foods to fuel the *mind* *body* and *soul* I'm also here to have fun. I am currently a student at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition on my way to becoming a Health Coach and Holistic Nutritionist. Day to day, I live my life according to what I'm going to eat next. When having breakfast I think about what I'm going to eat for lunch; when I'm having lunch I think about what I'm going to eat for dinner. I find that what I eat is a determining factor in how I feel. And what I do is fueled by what I eat. I am a fitness fanatic and a yoga lover. So fuel is vital and is needed for energy maintenance.

Summer Sangria

It's BBQ season! Instead of washing down your turkey burgers with beer (yes I said turkey burgers), try a refreshing and delicious cocktail.

Sangria
1 bottle of Cabernet (or any red) or a Sauvignon Blanc (or any white)
1 cup of fresh squeezed orange juice
1 cup of club soda
fresh cut slices of fruit of choice--such as peaches, oranges, apples, or grapefruit
1 pint of fresh raspberries
Let chill for one hour

*Red wine (in moderation) has been linked to lowering risk of ovarian cancer, Type 2 diabetes and protects against heart disease.
*Fresh fruit provides for antioxidants
