Night Run

Last Saturday night, the hubby and I went for a late night run and then a nice walk afterwards. A huge owl swooped down from a tree and landed on the fence near us and sat there with big black eyes just staring. It was amazing. The quick pic I took with my phone doesn't do justice to its size.

Healthy French Toast and Interval Training

I've been so busy lately because I've increased the number of times per week that I work out! The result physically has been great! Not only has my muscle definition increased, but I'm waking up earlier to squeeze workouts in and getting more done before going to work.

This morning in particular, I did some High Intensity Interval Training on a local trail with a workout buddy.

When I got home, I made some Healthy Cinnamon French Toast!! My hubby gave it the stamp of approval and so did I.

The batch I made had four slices total, so a serving was 2 slices with 202 calories and just over 12 grams of protein!

Here is the recipe:

4 slices of 100% whole wheat bread
2 extra large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 cup skim milk
2 teaspoons sugar in the raw(could use a sugar substitute to cut out a few more calories)
2 teaspoons cinnamon(I didn't measure, but I like to use a lot)

Whisk everything except the bread. Then coat each piece of bread without soaking too long and cook on med-low in a skillet until it is a golden color.

Voila! A healthy low calorie, yet high protein breakfast. Don't forget to make some good coffee to go with it! (0=
