Roasted Broccoli with Tahini Dressing

By

Hi, guys! Happy Tuesday to you!

So, I have ANOTHER tahini recipe for you. Tahini Tuesday, anyone? šŸ™‚ Clearly, I’m allllll about the tahini lately! But, first, a quick recap of my morning!

I’ve been digging this breakfast lately, especially on the days that I work out in the morning. I need a little something in my stomach, but I don’t want to be stuffed either. Listen to this combo: Half of a mashed banana mixed with almond butter (or peanut butter), ground flaxseed, and cinnamon. Mmm! It’s so good! Then, I mix my iced coffee with SFH and/or collagen for an added protein boost.

After breakfast, I got Quinn and myself ready for the day. Just before we were about to leave, I ran upstairs to grab something from our bedroom and saw this ridiculous creature crushing our pillows.

The workout at CrossFit this morning was a total lung smoker. I felt like I couldn’t catch my breath AT ALL, but it was a fun one. I finished just over 12 minutes.

Back at home, I was more than ready for an early lunch. I whipped up a batch of tahini dressing that turned out so well. I’m already dreaming about having it on roasted Brussels sprouts for dinner! šŸ™‚

Homemade Tahini Dressing

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp honey

Ingredients: Combine ingredients in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over your favorite roasted veggies!

My gosh, it’s so darn delicious. I’m pretty sure I’m going to put tahini dressing on just about everything! šŸ™‚

Question of the Day

Anyone else already thinking about dinner? Yes? What’s on the menu?

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
