Hello There!!
How was your Monday? Mine was pretty fantastic. I met with a great friend about some exciting changes for the blog, taught an awesome Booty Barre class, trained some Pilates clients, and then wrapped up the day with a heart pumping zumba class. It was sweaty, productive and fabulous! Just how I like it.
After a busy day, I was hungry hungry hungry. I saw this recipe on Pinterest for a cheesy Mexican bake, but wanted to healthify it a bit! You can do amazing things with corn, beans, brown rice, and salsa!

After dinner, I had give into my sweet toothe with my new favorite healthy treat! Allow me to introduce you to Enjoy Life Crunchy Sugar Crisps! They are all natural, diary, nut, and gluten free. Two cookies only have 110 calories and 7 grams of sugar! For two cookies the size of your hand, that is pretty dang good.
They are absolutely delicious. I seriously can't tell the differnce between Enjoy Life Sugar Cookies and regular sugar cookies. I am hooked for life. Sometimes a girl just needs a cookie right? :) Enjoy Life also makes a variety of other gluten free cookies, granola, cereals, and chewy bars. I'm sure I will make my way through all of their gluten free products!
