Breathe, stretch, pizza
Hey everyone! How’s your day treating ya?
Mine has been bueno- I’m glad I’ve gotten a lot of things checked off the to-do list!
I made some hummus for tomorrow night and saved myself a bowl to munch after Zumba with some veggies:
And some raw chocolate whipped cream for the tarts I made and froze Saturday:
Holy foodgasm.. I had a bite to make sure it didn’t need anything else and it tasted like heaven 😀 I’ll be posting all of the recipes for ya’ll either tomorrow night or Tuesday.
Next, I did some yoga upstairs in my makeshift guest room yoga studio. 20 minute Power Yoga #3 podcast and 20 minute Lunchtime Flow #1 podcast, both from YogaDownload.com. Here’s a little trick for ya: If you enter the coupon code YDLFRCL you can try ANY class for free. Watch out though, you’ll get hooked like moi 😉
After I was nice and yoga sweaty, I decided to make some lonchi and was hankering for PIZZA!
Behold.. the pizza of my dreams
Leftover homemade marinara from the lasagna I made last night, roasted eggplant, shallot, zucchini and tomato, oregano, 1/4 cup organic garbanzo beans, 1 serving goat jack cheddar…
All baked at 375 on an Ezekiel tortilla for 10 minutes, and garnished with red pepper flakes and fresh basil
When I eat pizza, I like to munch all the toppings off first with a fork, then cover the “crust” with red pepper flakes,
And then tear pieces, roll them up, and feast like so 😀
I also had a salad with greens and spinach, grape tomato, bell pepper, balsamic, shallot, and 1/2 T olive oil
Deeeeeelish.
The casa is cleaned and I can’t believe I’ve made almost everything in advance for tomorrow night! I NEVER do that.. no matter how much I plan, I’m usually in the kitchen cooking when people are over. Tomorrow night, all I have to do is set everything out, make the salad, and get the artichoke dip and lasagna in the oven. Oh, and drink make POMtinis 😉
Afternoon snack:
Freakishly large honeycrisp and 1/2 banana with almond butter, mesquite and cinnamon 😀
My friend Ashley are going to Ft. Lauderdale this weekend— any Ft. Lauderdale bloggies in the house?!
Time to make a Zumba CD, teach then train funny quotes lady. I got a request for a guest post from the funny quotes lady… tonight I’m going to ask her if she’s down 😉
See ya soon!
xoxo,
G
Zumba song of the day: “Breathe, Stretch, Shake”

My honeycrisps this year have been freakishly large, too!
Corepower Yoga offers Yoga On Demand and you can get unlimited online classes for $100 for the year. Seems like a pretty good idea to me!
Funny quotes lady!!!! Omigosh, that would be hilarious.
I would say I’m surprised at how you eat your pizza, but I remember what you do with chips and salsa, so nothing would surprise me 🙂
I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy goodness I used to rock out to that like no other during freshman year of college, hahaha 😀
Heheheh! I am glad you got my comment, I hope she says yes!!! She sounds amazing 🙂
i know, haven’t the honeycrisps been huge!!! more to love to eat!!!
The pizza looks great!! I have been eating apples like crazy too:) I love the super huge honeycrisps!
I like your pizza eating technique… I’m gonna try that!
Ezekials make PERFECT pizza crusts!! YUM.
Ft.Lauderdale native blogger right here! Lived there the first 18 years of my life and with all the visiting and summers at home I would round that up to 20. 😉 I know some great restaurant picks for you! Sublime … http://www.sublimeveg.com/ is one of them it’s a YUMMY vegetarian restaurant. I recommend the crispy cauliflower. Nom nom nom! 🙂 So good!
oh YES! i’m going to check it out right now 😀
owww the homemade pizza looks soooo delicious! Love it! Great toppings. I really enjoy homemade hummus too- I like leaving it a bit chunky (is that weird??). I hope funny quotes lady does a guest post- that would be awesome
oh i like it chunky as well 🙂
Fingers crossed funny quote lady agrees! I love how you eat your pizzas because it makes me feel better about my foodie quirks that don’t make it on the blog 😉
hahah if you ever want to compare foodie quirks, i’m your girl 😀 i probably have one of the weirdest eating styles ever
great lookin pizza!!
jenna
mmm that pizza looks great girl! I am starting Zumba soon can’t wait!
Way to go getting everything ready ahead of time! Your pizza lunch looks fabulous by the way. I tend to eat things in strange orders too – I always eat sides and then eat the main dish last. Weird? Maybe. But I like to think it’s why I’m so good at having salad with most of my meals 🙂
I STILL need to make my own hummus – so smart and such a cost savings!
hehe I like you eat pizza – LOVE red pepper flakes!
Haha i just had a freakishly large honeycrisp as well! They’re so juicy right now too, I love it!
I made some hummus too today! haha – well not exactly the same, since chickpea makes me bloated so often. I make a bloat-free one.
The pizza looks really awesome 🙂 I love thin crust!
bloat free hummus sounds fascinating… i’ll have to check your blog and see if the recipe is up 😀
Haha I love how you eat pizza… and that you recognized that it would be funny to share. Bring on the funny quotes lady! 🙂
I live in Miami, and I must agree with Katy that going to Sublime is a MUST! Everything on the menu is vegan and they use organic ingredients wherever possible. The restaurant has a great ambiance too. I usually go to Sublime every year on my birthday, and it’s such a treat!
Dear Fitnessista,
Do you ever have sandwiches for lunch? I’m a student and right now they seem like the most portable, easy thing to pack…But I LOVE salads and am bored of the plain ol’ AB + J. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks so much!
hey edk,
i’m not a big sandwich person -too much bread for me and since i don’t eat meat, i tend to stick to ab and j or ab and banana. when i was in college, my favorite things to pack were hummus wraps with lots of veggies, luna bar, pistachios in a baggie, v8, salad in a container with dressing on the side, then i would shake it before i ate it. another thing that transports well is oatmeal, if you don’t mind eating it cold. hope this helps a little!
OMG that song is amazing! I totally forgot about it. I’m going to download it today! 🙂
That pizza looks scrumptious! I’ve had the biggest craving for pizza lately, must get crusts!
That pizza looks awesome 😀
Hehe! I de-construct food all the time, too! My hubby thinks I’m a weirdo when I do it! 😉
hahah i de-construct EVERYTHING! i can’t even eat a sandwich like a sandwich.. i eat it layer by layer 😉
I miss Ezekiel tortillas!! I may have to splurge and get them this week. They’re so chewy and hearty, and so much better than any other tortilla. I love the idea of making it into a pizza. I’m going to do that asap!
yeah, they’re super expensive but way worth it 😀
