GET UP AND GET OUT....... GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR WORKOUT

Okay so you didn't stick to your New Year's resolutions and weren't prepared for the Summer's Swimwear season. That's okay you'll be Instagram ready next season. One thing people don't realize is that a full body workout is the most beneficial. But what about the lazy people like me? What do we need to do get things going?

First, pick or design a workout for your personality and your target areas. Some choose Zumba. For me everything is a target area but when it comes to my personality, I choose Taebo, Celebrity Fit Sculpt. I always thought of myself as a Celebrity or a media personality. Maybe that's why I have so much opposition.

Before you start any workout, remember to consult your physician.




Fall is here and what better way to eat, than to devour seasonal favorites like pumpkin and squash.

As a creole woman, I find everything taste better with freshly chopped seasonings. And in the South, we like to use what is commonly referred to as the "Holy Trinity." It's just onions, bell peppers and celery.  Here's my personal recipe to kick off the season. It's a great Sunday meal with some hot rice and your choice of meat or lack thereof. 

Here are your ingredients:

Olive oil
Zatarain's liquid onion and garlic seafood boil
1 medium onion
turkey sausage or shrimp
1 medium bell pepper
3 yellow or white squash
rosemary
oregano
black pepper
savory
basil
Tony Cachere's seasoning

First, heat oil or butter

Second add one medium onion diced and a quarter of a chopped bell pepper

Then, Peel squash and Chop squash into small cubes or slices. Add to pot.

Do not add water, it will make its own.

Add spices, rosemary, Tony Cacheres, a few dashes of black pepper, dash of black pepper, dash of oregano, dash of savory, dash of basil. Let pot cook for a little while.

For a creole taste, i used a capful of Zatarain's liquid onion and garlic seafood boil. Stir.

 

While this is cooking, in a separate pan add oil, and sausage of your choosing. (i chose turkey sausage) .

After the squash has cooked for some time and its seems tender add sausage to squash pot. Then, add the shrimp to the same pot as sausage let the shrimp cook in seasoned oil. When squash has been cooking for a while and tender enough to eat then dump shrimp to the pot let cook for about 15 minutes. Cook some rice and laisse les bon temps roule!
