    Sushi Bowls

    Hi Everyone!

    Today, I am sharing another meal prep idea with you. Shout out to Brad Boswell for the idea! We love sushi so this one is great and healthier than grabbing takeout. We love that we can prep one day a week and don’t have to plan and cook each night, while still eating healthy. 

    Ingredients (per bowl)

    1 Cup Jasmine Rice

    ½ Fillet of Fish (We use Tilapia) or 5 Large Shrimp

    ½ Small Avocado

    1 Tbsp Chopped Green Onions

    1 Tbsp Imitation Crab

    1 Tbsp Cream Cheese (cut into small cubes)

    1 tsp. Spicy Mayo

    1 tsp. Hoisin Sauce

    Recipe

    1. Cook shrimp and fish to your liking. (You can reference my previous posts for ideas for this, just search fish or shrimp in the search bar.)
    2. Cook rice according to the package. (I usually 10X this recipe for meal prep, sometimes even more as Shane likes extra rice and fish.)
    3. Cut your avocado, green onion, imitation crab, and cream cheese into small pieces. 
    4. Arrange into a bowl however you would like.
    5. Enjoy! 

    I’ve been loving these bowls and I hope you do too. If you aren’t into seafood then you can substitute chicken for the seafood. I have loved discovering more meal prep recipes. I hope you like this meal as much as I do. Please let me know in the comments below, if you do. If you are interested in more healthy recipes please subscribe below.

  • Workouts

    Strengthen Your Shoulders Workout

    Today, I am sharing an awesome shoulder workout with you. Shoulders are one of my favorite muscle groups to work out. I workout shoulders about once a week now. I usually do them with triceps. I love these workouts as I feel like I can visually see improvements after doing them for a few months. 

    I do three sets of the following:

    Arnold Press 10 Reps

    Bent Arm Lateral Raise 10 Reps 

    Upright Row 10 Reps 

    Here is a video of me doing these exercises so that you can see what they are if you are unfamiliar with them! The video is sped up slightly. When you do these exercises keep your movements slow and controlled. You will see results faster if you do this. 

    I hope you loved today’s workout! Let me know what you think in the comments below. If you want to see more workouts like this please subscribe below for weekly emails. Thank you so much for checking out today’s post.
