Zucchini Crust Pizza

Zucchini Lasagna last time,

 Zucchini crust today.

What can i say? I like my veggies!

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS, yayyy.

This season is really going to test my ability

to stick to my meal planning BUT being surrounded

by lots of supporters will make it much easier.

INCLUDING: my wonderful boyfriend. 

We had a taste for pizza, and decided to try out a 

zucchini crust (since we've made cauliflower crust before)

WHATCHA NEED:

3 zucchinis (shredded)

2 eggs

2C cheese

Seasonings

DIRECTIONS:

*Preheat oven to 350 degrees

-Shred Zucchini in a Food Processor

*Add in egg and cheese (we used mozz and cheddar jack)

- Shape onto baking tray (as thin as possible)

*Add desired toppings

-Bake 20 minutes (or until edges crisp)

HIS SIDE:

- Kale, Tilapia, Mushrooms, Extra Cheese

HER SIDE:

- Kale & Tilapia

TRIAL AND ERROR:

Our crust did not come out as crispy

as we would have liked SO, MY SUGGESTION IS:

* Use Tea-Cloth to drain extra water from

zucchini after shredding/before 

adding egg & cheese*

SURVIVE THE HOLIDAYS! Plan your workouts AND your meals

FINALS HAVE ARRIVED

therefore, it is crucial that I keep my nutrition

and fitness in my daily routine.

Working out is my stress reliever and eating

fuels my energy for busy days 

HERE ARE MY SECRETS on

HOW NOT-TO MAKE EXCUSES

during finals, holidays, vacations, etc.

*KEEP TRACK

I find it incredibly helpful to record my workouts in the "Notes" app

in my phone. This way, when I don't have time to

 search BodyBuilding.Com for a workout, I already

have ones saved that I can refer to.

ALSO, by keeping track of your workouts,

 you can work to improve and make gains on the

PR's you previously recorded. 

HERE IS WHAT MY "NOTES" APP CURRENTLY LOOKS LIKE

SO- when I feel like having a CHEST day, I'll refer to my "Chest" workout

notes. When I feel like having a BOOTY workout, I'll refer

to my "BOOTY *insert peach emoji*" note!

*PLAN YOUR MEALS

There are so many benefits doing this, I

cannot stresssssss the importance and impact

this has had on my life. Seriously. 

1. You no longer need to debate what

to have for lunch/dinner/snack

2. You can be on the run ALL DAY LONG because

you have food to FUEL you

3. You can get rid of food that is getting old 

or you're just sick of looking at
