Today was another very busy day for me! I have been studying for my midterms coming up this week as well as cooking more recipes for my final healthy alternatives cookbook. Today, I chose to make healthy nachos. I am still going with the theme of game-day food and finger foods. These nachos had all the same taste as the fatty and oily nachos you can find at any game or restaurant. This recipe called for baked tortilla chips, veggie chili, salsa, soymilk, fat-free cheddar cheese, The Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss cheese, fat-free cream cheese, and fat-free sour cream. Within 20 minutes I was done! Quick, easy, and healthy. What could be better? This recipe has about 216 calories, compared to the 440 calories found in the average order of nachos. I was very pleased with the outcome of this recipe!
As part of my WISE project, I have vowed to make my lifestyle healthy, not only by eating, but also by exercising, and researching the benefits of different foods. So far, I have been very consistent with running or going to the gym to keep my body healthy. Today, I had my trainer and learned new ways to use weights to tone different parts of my body. I loved it!
As for now, I am going to go continue studying for my midterms coming up this week.
