15-minute Core and Abs

2/17/2024

 
This is a great short core and abs workout from a previous Holiday Challenge. Roll out a mat and join me as we get our bodies moving and build strength.

Look out for the next challenge- or gather a group and suggest one- there's nothing I love more than pushing myself with fun and motivated people!

Beef and Bean Chile

2/13/2024

 
I recently made this chili and loved it. I substituted ground turkey for beef. It's even better after a couple of days when the flavours have developed.

Sushi Bundt Cake

2/13/2024

 
Sushi Bundt Cake

This is a fun, easy to make, colorful, and healthy dish. My daughter and I enjoyed putting together this sushi "cake" almost as much as we enjoyed eating it!

INGREDIENTS:
•   1.5 cup uncooked calrose rice (made in rice cooker or cooked to package instructions).
•   3 tbsp rice vinegar.
•   1 tbsp sugar.
•   2 tbsp black sesame seeds.
•   pinch of salt.
•   7 oz bluefin tuna.
•   7 oz salmon.
•   1/4 cup + 1 tbsp japanese mayo.
•   3 tbsp sriracha.
•   2 tsp tamari (plus more for the sauce).
•   2 serranos (one sliced and one finely chopped).
•   3 scallions (chopped, separate white and green part).
•   2 tsp sesame oil.
•   1 english cucumber (thinly sliced).
•   2 avocados (sliced).
•   1/2 orange.
•   1/2 lemon.
•   shichimi togarashi.
•   toasted nori.


DIRECTIONS: 
1. Mix the rice vinegar, sugar and pinch of salt. Add it to your cooked rice with the sesame seeds and let completely cool. Preferably overnight.
2. Chop the salmon and tuna. Add to a bowl with the japanese mayo, sriracha, sesame oil, tamari and green part of the scallions.
3. Assemble the bundt: starting with the rice on the bottom, add in cucumber, spicy tuna mixture and avocado, press in the rest of the rice. Using a plate, flip it over.
4. Mix the white part of scallions, chopped serranos, orange and lemon juice. Add tamari to taste.
5. Top the bundt with nori pieces, togarashi and serrano slices.
