get REAL recipe of the week

I posted a great recipe that I have been making a lot of over at my blog, My Life as a Trimommy.  It is for Sweet Potato Casserole, and has no added sugar.  I eat it as much as I can, even for dessert!!  Zoom over and check it out.

I am also chronicling my daily eating this week on my blog.  Many of you have asked about nutrition, and sometimes it's great to see what other people are eating to get new ideas for healthy meals and snacks.

Stay tuned!  There should be more trainings and triathlon news as we get geared up for the new year.  Are you ready??

Get REAL Recipe of the Week

Baked Egg Souffle (it sounds hard, but it really isn't!)

1 big handful fresh spinach
2 eggs (or 1 egg and 2 egg whites)
couple of spoonfuls of low fat ricotta cheese

Bring a little bit of water to boil in a small sauce pan.  Throw in the spinach and cover until cooked--about 1-2 minutes.  Drain off the water.  Beat the eggs and put in a greased, oven-safe dish. ( I use a round mini-casserole dish--just big enough for one person.) Stir in the spinach and drop a couple of spoonfuls of ricotta on top.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Bake in the oven at 350 degrees until the middle is set (about 20-25 min.).  If you want you can turn the broiler on for the last minute or so to get it nice and brown on top.  Enjoy.

This is a great lunch for those cold days when you are at home by yourself.  Easy to make, and tastes delicious.  Throw a couple of tomato wedges on the side and you have yourself 2 veggies at once!!
