Ways to keep warm this week!

Wow! It's cold out there. Makes me want to curl up on the couch and eat comfort foods!

OK, to ward off the couch potato urges, try one of these: Go for a run (I just did, it really helped!), Get out to the park and run around with your kids and/or come to one of my sessions this week!

Schedule for this week is as follows:
Tuesday and Thursday 9:30a
Friday at 10am

As usual, we will be at the track in Redondo (Aviation Field corner of Manhattan Bch Blvd and Aviation)

The 6 week Intensive continues this week at our usual times Wed & Friday at 9am. Although this Intensive is full, if there is enough interest, I am happy to kick start another intensive if there are enough people. (4 min, 6 max)

Also here's a healthy and tasty way to stay warm with Stuffed Cinnamon French Toast (from Men's Health Nutrition Guide). My husband, Bryan, made these Easter morning and they were REALLY good, hard to believe that they are actually good for you! Enjoy! Barb

Stuffed Cinnamon French Toast

2 tbsp part-skim ricotta cheese
2 slices whole grain bread
1 tsp honey
pinch+1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp slices almonds
1 egg
1 tbsp 1% milk
handful of fresh berries

Spread the room-temp ricotta on a slice of whole-grain bread. Drizzle the honey over the cheese and sprinkle lightly with a pinch of cinnamon. Top with sliced almonds and another slice of whole-grain bread. Whisk together the egg, milk, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Dip the bread into the egg mixture and cook over medium heat on a nonstick griddle of skillet coated with cooking spray, until the bread is lightly browned and the cheese is melted. Serve with berries. Makes 1 serving
