What are you eating Friday night
Make some home-made healthy pizza with your kiddos before going out for a fun Friday night. The dough is made of whole wheat/oat/white flour blend. Check out this kid friendly blog for recipes.
Baby Bloomers
Check out these bloomers by Gals with Girls. Summer, I thought of your little girl looking so cute in these!
The flower is removable and interchangeable with other flowers or bows. Those little buns will look so cute.

What I love about SUMMER is the fact that you can enjoy all of the summer fruits in a variety of ways. You can chop them up and make fruit salads, blend them in to refreshing smoothies, add them to your protein shakes, and so much more. If you are trying to beat the heat and continue your clean eating plan, try reaching for a chilled Peach or Plum instead of ice cream.
Check out your local farmers markets to get the best produce in town. Also less expensive!
Have you tried steel cut oats?

Peaches - these are a good source of vitamin C and I love adding frozen peaches to my protein shakes.
Grapes - these make a great quick snack. They are a good source of vitamins C and K. Have you ever tried frozen grapes? They also are good tossed into a salad or to eat with cheese.
Cantaloupe - another favorite and packed with vitamins A and C. It is great to eat for breakfast.
Cherries - I absolutely love cherries but they can get rather expensive. They contain vitamin C and fiber. You can add these to salads and smoothies but I enjoy them best as they are.
Mangoes - this is another fruit I enjoy as is but you can easily add to a salad or smoothie. They are good sources of vitamins A and C.
Watermelon - I think this is the ultimate summer fruit. I like this one served as cold as possible. Good source of vitamins A and C.
Clean eaters often enjoy a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast or sometimes during the day. Have you ever wondered the difference between steel-cut oats versus rolled oats? There are several differences between it and the typical rolled oat variety. These include:
- Much longer cooking time (30 minutes)
- More cholesterol lowering soluble fiber than other oatmeal
- Takes longer to digest so you stay fuller longer
- Chopped with steel blades resulting in a “chewier” oatmeal

Jerk SpicedTilapia
INGREDIENTS
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 jalapeno pepper, cored, seeded, and finely chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, pressed
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 4 tilapia fillets
METHODS
- Combine herbs and spices in a small bowl and mix well.
- Coat tilapia fillets with olive oil. Pat both sides with spices.
- Sauté each fillet until just cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. Do not overcook!
This is really yummy! Low-fat and perfect for hot days. I am without a BBQ so I did it on my foreman. I bet it is extra yummy on the BBQ. I didn't coat mine with Olive oil, I just put spices directly on it. Seemed to work. I was saving the calories.
This recipe was taken from my eat clean book by Tosca Reno.
