The 10-20-30-40-50 Workout

I don't think being a mom is an excuse to not be healthy (and just so y'all know, being healthy doesn't mean we don't have stretch marks or extra cushion.

One of my husband's favorite things to munch on is chips and salsa. Okay, mine too. But there is something so refreshing about cowboy caviar and I always feel way less guilty eating it. Because vegetables. Here's a super easy recipe for your next get together or late night snack: 1 diced red pepper 1 diced green pepper 1 diced red onion 1-2 diced tomatoes 1 can drained sweet corn 1 can drained and rinsed black beans 1 can drained and rinsed white beans (or black eyed peas) 1 bunch cilantro leaves (optional) 2 diced avocados  (optional - it won't keep as long if you add these) Mix together in a bowl. Dressing: 1/4 cup olive oil 1/3 cup white wine vinegar 2 Tbsp. sugar 1 tsp chili powder 1 tsp sea salt 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional) Whisk together and then add to caviar mixture.
