📣🔥 WEEKLY CHALLENGE! 🔥📣
 
Ready to switch it up? Your challenge: try out a new-to-youhealthy oil.
 
Here are a few ideas beyond the olive oil that is probably already in your cabinet:
● Avocado oil - it’s delicious in salad dressings but it also has a high smoke point, which means it’s great for cooking. Try it in a stir fry!
● Sesame oil – it packs a huge amount of flavor – so much so that a little goes a long way. It also has a high smoke point so it’s great for sauteing and other high-temp cooking.
● Grass-fed butter/ghee - it has more omega 3 fatty acids than regular butter, making it a healthier choice. Grass-fed ghee is basically that same butter, but with all the dairy products cooked out. (If you’re cooking at a temp less than 350ºF/177ºC, butter is a good choice, if it’s higher … go with ghee.)
 
❓ Are you in on this challenge? What’s your go-to healthy cooking oil?

🍕This is a healthier take on pizza ... made with portobello mushrooms as the “crust.”
 
Experiment with your favorite toppings!
 
TIP: Keep any leftover vegan “cheese” in a covered container in the fridge for other recipes. Delicious!
 
🍄Vegan Portobello Pizzas 🍄
(serves 4)
● 4 large portobello mushrooms
● Olive oil
● 1 tsp Italian seasoning
● 1 cup of your favorite pizza sauce
● 3/4 cup veggies or other favorites pizza toppings (diced onions, peppers, olives, etc)
 
For the “cheese” topping:
● ½ cup raw cashews
● 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
● ½ tsp sea salt
 
Preheat your oven to 400ºF/200ºC. Line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.
 
Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems, and brush both sides with a small amount of olive oil, placing them on the baking sheet. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning over the top, and bake for 5-8 minutes.
 
While they are precooking, prepare the cheese topping: place the nuts, nutritional yeast, and salt in a food processor and pulse until it turns into a parmesan-like consistency.
 
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and top with pizza sauce, toppings, and a sprinkle of vegan cheese. Place back in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the toppings are tender.

🍄Food of the week … MUSHROOMS!
 
Love or hate ’em?
 
As part of the “fungi” family, they’ve got some unique benefits.
 
☀️For example, they are one of the few food sources of vitamin D – they absorb it from the sun while they’re growing and pass it along to you when you eat them.
 
Your body needs vitamin D for lots of reasons, from boosting your immune system to building healthy bones.
 
👉And while there are hundreds of varieties of edible mushrooms, 90% of the mushrooms we eat are white mushrooms (aka button mushrooms).
 
They’re loaded with antioxidants, which offer protection against diseases like cancer.
 
Plus, they are rich in selenium, which is great for your thyroid & metabolism – plus they contain heart-healthy nutrients that help lower your blood sugar and balance gut health.
 
✅You can eat mushrooms raw or cooked. Try roasting, sauteing, or stir-frying them!

🔑THURSDAY TIP

FORM CHECK! A lot of times we try to muscle through our push-ups by focusing on our shoulders.

Today when you do your Push-Ups … focus on your chest and core muscles so they take over some of the work.

It can help to think about pushing more through the heel of your hand vs. the fingers. It’s a small tweak but it really can make a difference.

Let us know below if it does ⬇️

🍠 Healthy, crispy, and delicious, these roasted sweet potatoes are going to be a favorite. They feature this week’s food of the week, thyme!
 
They go with just about any meal – from chicken and steak to sandwiches and wraps.
 
TIP: Double the recipe for leftovers.
 
Thyme-Roasted Sweet Potatoes
(makes 6 servings)
 
● 2 lbs (900 grams) sweet potatoes cut in ½-inch (1 cm) square cubes
● 3 Tbsp coconut oil, tallow, butter, or avocado oil
● 1 tsp each Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
● 2 tsp garlic powder
● 1 Tbsp dried thyme
 
Preheat your oven to 450ºF/230ºC. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
 
In a large bowl, toss together all the ingredients, making sure they are all well coated – it will help ensure the potato gets crispy!
 
Spread the potatoes on the baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes, remove from the oven and turn the potatoes over using a spatula. Return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes until they are done (crispy on the outside, tender on the inside).
 
Worthy of 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🌿Food of the week … is THYME!
 
Thyme is one of those hard-working herbs we don’t think a lot about...
 
Which is a shame because it can amp up the flavor of pesto, poultry and fish rubs, soups, casseroles, and stews.
 
💡A member of the mint family, it’s been used in folk medicine for centuries.
 
It has natural antimicrobial qualities, plus it contains plant chemicals that are linked to better blood pressure, clearer skin, and boosting your mood.
 
❓Do you have any thyme on your spice rack? 👇👇👇

Welcome to your 1 Minute Push-up Challenge!
 
Are you ready?!  This week your challenge is to do as many push-ups as you can for 1 MINUTE every day.
 
I love this kind of challenge because it’s great for your body AND your mind.
 
Goal: Aim for 1 more rep tomorrow than you do today. Be sure to listen to your body and take breaks as needed.
 
You can do standard push-ups, modified push-ups (from your knees), or incline push-ups (hands on a raised bench or wall).
 
Physically, this is a GREAT opportunity to work on form and technique and finally move you toward conquering full-body push-ups if that’s a goal.
 
Plus … this challenge can help you build mental toughness by challenging your personal best and getting you out of your comfort zone.
