Morning

Love easy and simple breakfast. This morning I had a piece of toast where I cooked an egg in the middle. I threw in some sausage, spinach and tomatoes.

Happy Tuesday! 

P.S I can't wait for pretty little liars & Being Mary Jane tonight!! 

Pineapple Raspberry Parfait

This is my go to breakfast when I'm running late for school or a snack before my workout. The best part is this can be made in advance, you can take it on the go and it's so simple and can easily be changed to your preference.
This is usually $5 when you buy it but for that price you can get all the ingredients and make 7 for that price.

This morning in my parfait I had raspberries, pineapple chunks and my fav some chopped walnuts.
Hope you try this out, and thanks for reading!

Nike Free Run 5.0 - New Kicks

With my new found love of being healthy and working out, sometimes its hard to motivate yourself. One of the things I found through tumblr is that, if you give yourself a reward you look forward to being more vigilante about keeping up this lifestyle. Remember its a lifestyle not a diet so enjoy different things each day but have fun with food even desserts are necessary every now and then (believe me,  chocolate is my necessity) .

As a treat for myself I bought these citrus and cobalt blue Nike Free 5. Let me just say they are one of the most comfortable sneakers I've worn in a long time. It bends with your feet and their absolutely perfect for jogging. Below are some pics of myself enjoying a summer day at the park till nest time ENJOY!

Simple healthy snack: Pico de Gallo & Pita

One of my favorite and simple snacks is Pico de Gallo. It's a symphony of flavours from red onion to the plum tomatoes and hint of lemon juice. I like this best of a piece of fish for dinner. During the day it make a delicious dip with pita. 

Pico de Gallo consist of avocado, salt, pepper, red onions, plum tomatoes, jalapenos and a squeeze of lemon juice. 

This is now one of my dads favourite "salad" like meals, enjoy and try this recipe out for yourself. 

Taking It Easy

Take advantage of the beautiful weather and go outside. At least that's what I'm doing since it feels like we have 9 months of winter and 2 months of summer if we're lucky in Canada. After a jog in Cedervale ravine I laid back and relax to take in my view. Be one with nature and enjoy the beauty of the day. What a  better way to spend the day than looking up at the blue skies and sunshine it's natures natural stress reliever (if you're stressed - city can do that to you). I know some people go shopping but in my opinion this is a cheaper better way of therapy then shopping. Below are some of the scenes from early this morning ENJOY :) 

The dreadful stairs, try running up that 10 times. Its a killer 

Mango & Kiwi Parfait with Greek yogurt

Simply snacks made easy. That's my motto when I'm hungry and need something to munch on but I don't want to reach for chips or cookies. The temptations are hard BUT  . . . this little snack will keep you coming back for more.
This parfait is really simple to make all i did was layer some honey greek yogurt, oatmeal and diced kiwi and mangos. Not only does it look beautiful it taste great too. Enjoy!

Health Nut 101 💪🍌🍓🍊

Lately since school is done for me and i have a lot more time on my hands and summer is around the corner, I've felt compelled to try a healthier lifestyle. Not saying that i dont eat healthy all year around but I've never been one to go out of my way to eat clean for a WHOLE week. Since i can eat the way i want when i want and i can prepare and cook my meals, I've tried to eat healthier. Overall its been fun to experiment and try different foods as well say cook. To think my parents used to think i couldnt cook. TO PROVING PARENTS WRONG! Muahaha!
This is also a good way to learn to cook and try different foods. Due to this wee bit of change my family has also started to eat more green and healthier as well.
Below is some of breakfast options I've been eating. I wont lie tumblr has inspired me too!

Enjoy and dont get to hungry :)
