What better way to show your love than cooking a meal for two

Tex- Mex Spinach Omelet

Let me begin by sharing that I hope everyone has a wonderful Happy Valentine’s Day. Times are hard now and it’s no secret that money is tight. Restaurants are over priced, entrees are full of calories, and today they will be way over crowded. What better way to show your loved one how much you love them by cooking a healthy dinner straight from the heart. Omelet’s are easy and go over any time of the day. This recipe is super healthy and tastes even better! Please leave me a comment by clicking on the title and let me know how this recipe worked for you.

Ingredients
1 cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed, or 4 eggs
1 tablespoon snipped fresh cilantro
Dash salt
Dash ground cumin
Nonstick cooking spray
1 ounce reduced-fat cheddar cheese, reduced-fat Swiss cheese, or Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeno chile peppers, shredded (1/4 cup)
3/4 cup fresh baby spinach leaves
Corn-Pepper Relish (below)

Directions
1. In a medium bowl, combine egg, cilantro, salt, and cumin. Beat with a whisk or rotary beater until frothy.

2. Coat an unheated 10-inch nonstick skillet with flared sides with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat skillet over medium heat.

3. Pour egg mixture into prepared skillet. Cook, without stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes or until egg mixture begins to set. Run a spatula around edge of skillet, lifting egg mixture so uncooked portion flows underneath.

4. Continue cooking and lifting edge until egg mixture is set but is still glossy and moist. Sprinkle with cheese. Top with three-fourths of the spinach and half of the Corn-Pepper Relish. Using the spatula, lift and fold an edge of the omelet partially over filling. Top with remaining spinach and the remaining relish. Cut omelet in half; transfer to warm plates.

You are your own enemy!

We all sabotage our lives in one way or another whether it be in our relationships, financially, or our own physical health.  Sabotage does not equal one’s intelligence level but it does equal your belief system.  You are exactly where you are in life because YOU believe that’s where you deserve to be. 

Now you all may think I am getting on my soap box but it’s true.  Many of you may be very unhappy with your situation right now for whatever reason.  But may I ask, how is it that you got where you are at this very moment?  What role do you play in your unhappiness?  How can you change your life?  The answer lies totally within your belief system.  I am a huge believer in motivating myself with affirmations that I post all over my home.  As a martial artist and a natural bodybuilder, I have to be mentally strong.  I love a great challenge and I tend to enter competitions where some may think I am reaching too far out of my zone.  I can’t expect for the judges to believe in me if I don’t believe in myself.  If you have tried  something repeatedly and failed, then subconsciously you are believing that you will fail before you even try. 

Okay enough of that and lets move on to solutions.  As you are reading this you may be asking HOW do I succeed?  The first step is to realize how you are sabotaging your own success.  Recognize that you are responsible for your own successes and failures.  Begin shifting your mindset and focus only on the positives.  Have you ever been around someone and everything they say is negative?  It’s usually a draining conversation and you may feel mentally exhausted after talking with them.  Surround yourself around positive people who will be encouraging and positive for your life goals.  I can tell you that one place you will find this is at lancaster womens bootcamp or charlotte womens bootcamp.  These women in my fitness bootcamps are so positive.  They are a great support network for each other as they show support, encouragment, and accountability for each other.  You can find more information at www.healingstrengthbootcamp.com 

Start building your confidence by setting specific goals and taking baby steps.  Try not to focus on the goal itself but the steps it will take to achieve your goal.  Remember that it is the steps you take in life that will ultimately lead to your success. 

When you overcome the barriers in life that you place on yourself, the rewards you will gain are unimaginable.  You must have a strong belief system and know that YOU are ultimatley responsible for your happiness!  Until next time, Train Hard and Eat Healthy!
