Show Me Your Fit
Hey hey ๐ Happy Monday! Hope your morning is going well <3
Catching up on the blogworld?
–Kale chips and my favorite onion bread recipe
-The Pilot and I had a date ๐
-He has a secret watermelon-carving talent
–Adventures with the donut pan
Weโre moving a little slowly over here after a late night, and an early morning with a hacking Bella.
She seems to be feeling better now, though <3
We didnโt end up going out with friends because they just got into Tucson and are getting settled, so went in comfys to Ikeโs.
Grilled cheese and tomato soup for the Pilot, caramel tea for me
(It was 11pm, which is why I didnโt munch anything)
I didnโt wake up early enough to walk (sorry to ditch my virtual walking buddies), so instead I did the Fire 30 TurboFire DVD. It was so much and a great way to get my metabolism crack-a-lackin for the day ๐
B-fast was an egg burrito + salad
(Luuuuurve salad for bfast)
Quite a few of ya have asked how I roll my burritos, so we took a couple of pics this morning ๐
Always warm up the tortilla first (20 seconds or so in the microwave, or you can warm it directly on the stove burner), and place your fillings of choice in a line/clump down the middle:
(today was 3 egg whites and salsa)
Fold the sides over the filling:
Then the bottom part up:
and all the way:
Hope that helps a little!
This morning weโre off to find something to wear for our trip tomorrow- Iโm nervous/excited. See ya this afternoon ๐

Something to do: Show Me Your Fit! I always loveadorerelish the amazing discussions we have on here and any chance I have to get to know you guys better ๐ We did Show Me Your Smoothie last year, but I thought it would be fun to do something more personal. So this time, weโre going to do โShow Me Your Fit.โ If youโd like to participate, please send me a picture from your day with a caption by Thursday at noon (EST) to fitnessista at gmail doc com (subject โShow Me Your Fitโ). It can be anything food or fitness-related- a pic from an amazing run or fitness class, your breakfast, a snack, whatever you like. Iโll post the pics on Friday morning ๐
That breakfast burrito looks delicious Gina!! Bella looks so cute too, even if she was hacking! =)
Love the show me your fit idea! ๐ Oh, and the rose watermelon. ๐
Love the show me your fit idea! And that pic of Bella!
I love salad for breakfast too! Everyone I tell thinks I’m weird ๐
Thanks for the burrito tutorial….I can never get it right! haha. And yes, I will send you my “fit” ๐
Love the ‘show me your fit’ idea! ๐
Ooh ill have to think of something to send…. LOVEEEE bfast burritos and salads for bfast toooo!
Wow,caramel tea sounds amazing, and so does the Show Me Your Fit; I’m definitely going to participate!
Breakfast burrito looked YUM. What kind of tortillas do you use?
mmm you always remind me how delicious goat cheese is!
and what delicious combo with the salsa YUM!
what brand tortillas do you use? the burrito looks delish
I am impressed you get the brown rice tortillas to roll so nicely and not tear ๐
I meant to comment the other day that your burritos are always so neatly wrapped! I always have the problem of over-stuffing them and they seem to fall apart on me. Messy, but still delicious! Have fun shopping!
I love the “show me your fit idea” too ๐
I just recently found your blog, and let me tell you, LOVE IT! I have been a slight creeper as of late, catching up on blogs from the past. Your blog is so entertaining! Thanks for the good tips on workouts and interesting recipes…I want to try your amazeballs (one of my fav words) and so many other eats on the blog. Thanks for making my days at work (on breaks of course) more enjoyable!!
hey kelli,
thank you so much- i’m happy you’re enjoying it! let me know if you try the amazeballs ๐
xoxo
How does your hair look so incredible, even when you head out in comfies??? I am jealous with a capital J! ๐
Nice wrap…so tight and neat looking…nothing’s gonna fall out of that one!
Your trip…I hope you have a great one.
And the call for submissions, I just did that starting over the weekend with featuring people’s recipes…I think it’s AWESOME you’re doing the Show me Your Fit…it gives people a chance to ‘get involved’ and to sort of meet each other virtually by being able to see faces/names/pics from everyone’s day…what a great gift to everyone and thanks for organizing it, Gina ๐
I really love the bangs on you. The more I see them on you the more I want them! Your breakfast burrito looks so good. I always struggle with getting veggies into my breakfast, maybe I need to make a breakfast burrito with them!
thank you! ๐
bfast burritos are such an easy way to get am veggies.. and so good with salsa ๐
She your fit us SUCH a cute idea! I love how personal it is ๐
Love the idea of ‘show me your fit’ — lets hope I remember to submit a pic ๐
The burrito looks glorious!
I completely suck at attempting to fold a burrito. It always ends up ripping, and I just eat all the insides separately. Oh well ๐ At least I know some can do it!
Why do you seem to always discard the yolks? They are the most nutritious part of the egg, hosting plenty of vitamin d, b12, selenium, etc. The whites are a good source of protein, but their nutritional profile doesn’t hold a candle to the egg in it’s complete form.
i have one yolk per day. since i eat eggs so many times during the day, it wouldn’t be healthy for me to have the entire egg each time
It’s a total misconception that egg yolks raise your cholesterol.. such an old, outdated nutritional concept. If you’re eating organic, pasture and free-range eggs, they are perfectly healthy to consume without worry. I eat 2-3 a day, and my cholesterol level is perfect. Just saying…
seeing that egg burrito makes me want enchiladas for some reason lol
Hope Bella feels better soon!!
Loving the salad on the side for breakfast and goat cheese!!!!!!!
Hope you find something to wear! xoxo <3
Love this — must make a note to send you a photo =)
Caramel tea sounds awesome! Do you know what brand it was?
honeybush! we got a snicker out of that one
Bella is so cute! I have hundreds of pictures of my dog curled up in a blanket, she always looks so adorable :).
ohhh what a fun idea!! love it ๐
That burrito looks good! Does that salsa have avocado in it? There is a salsa I’ve seen at Costco that looks like the salsa on your burrito. It has avocado in it and I want to try it, but the packaging is so big!
it’s the tj’s green salsa- one of my faves!
You always look so put together! While I know you really take good care of yourself inside and out, I also think you would probably look good in a burlap sack! You remind me a little of the lead singer of the Bangles (yep, way back, I’m showing my age). Nothing cuter than a curled up puppy. Take care you guys!
thank you, that’s such a sweet compliment <33 (LOVE the bangles!)
How old is Bella? She is too cute! Your bkfast burrito is making me hungry!
she’s 5 ๐
Your burrito looks so perfect! My problem with wraps is that I always stuff them way too full to wrap them up properly. ๐
I love burritos, but I always fail at rolling them. I hope Bella feels even better, she’s so adorable.
Hi Gina,
Would you do a post on your take on artificial sweeteners? I have been hearing so much about them lately and would like your point of view.
Thanks!
i say no to artificial sweeteners!
the only one that i think is stevia, and other than that, i prefer maple syrup, honey, dates, sucanat and brown sugar over the white stuff or fake stuff.
I’m still blown away by that rose. Too cool!
I was just thinking “How does she roll up that burrito” when I saw the first burrito pic and there it was! Instructions! Thanks!
