PiYo Running Challenge is HERE!!

Are you training for a 5K, 10K, half marathon, or marathon this fall? Or do you simply just love to run? If your answer is YES, join me for a running/PiYo challenge!! ‪#PiYo‬ (aka Pilates and yoga on steroids!!) has been proven to help runners not only build necessary muscle but to lengthen your hamstrings, which leads to a longer stride, which leads to a faster time! It’s been one of my favorite cross training workouts and I started it in my 3rd trimester with baby #2 last summer!

Here’s what you’ll get with this challenge:
-An 8-week running/PiYo training calendar
-A 30-day meal plan designed to help you tone up and slim down
-Access to 100s of ‪#‎cleaneating‬ recipes only available to my customers
-Super-food shakes that will help you build muscle, stave off cravings, promote weight loss, and MUCH more!
-Me as your coach along the way!

Whether you’re trying out your first 5K or training for a half marathon, PiYo is one of the best programs to help you avoid injury and maximize your runs! If you’re in, comment, below “I’M IN!” or message me for details!!

Beef Chorizo Tacos with Cabbage Slaw!

These yummy (and kid-friendly!) beef chorizo tacos are 21 Day Fix approved!

I love tacos. I also love anything that’s clean eating AND kid friendly. (Hey, when you’re a mom of an almost four year old, the things you love these days are pretty simple.) I came across this recipe in All You magazine and decided to give it a whirl. And wow. SO good. AND 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix Extreme approved! Score!

Best of all? I was able to cook the meat and prepare the salad ahead of time so that we could easily just heat up the meat and corn tortillas and sit down quick to eat! Plus, all of the clean up was done!

Here’s the recipe, which I tweaked just a bit because I felt the slaw needed a little more tang:

One Serving includes 2 tortillas

INGREDIENTS

4 cups very thinly sliced red cabbage

1/3 cup cilantro leaves

4 tablespoons white vinegar, divided

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided

3/4 teaspoon salt, divided

1 tablespoon paprika

2 teaspoons ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

5 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 pound 90% lean ground sirloin (I used lean ground beef but you could also use lean ground chicken or lean ground turkey, too)

12 (6-inch) corn tortillas

DIRECTIONS

1. Combine cabbage and cilantro in a medium bowl.

2. Combine 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1 tablespoon oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl, stirring with a fork or whisk.

3. Drizzle vinegar ­mixture over cabbage mixture; toss well to combine. Set aside.

4. Combine remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, paprika, cumin, pepper, and garlic, stirring well with a fork or whisk.

5. Heat a large nonstick ­skillet over ­medium-high heat. Add beef; cook 5 minutes or until browned and done, stirring to crumble.

6. Stir in vinegar-spice mixture; cook 2 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates.

7. Heat tortillas over medium-high heat directly on the eye of a gas or electric burner or in a skillet for about 10 ­seconds on each side or until lightly charred.

8. Spoon about 1/4 cup beef mixture and 1/4 cup slaw into each tortilla.
